Wearing the Duke's Mansion, he was scrambling to save his life

Chapter 103: Alone and Single

Li Tianyou went to school, leaving only Qiao Xiaoxi and Li Yanming at home.

At night, the whole house was unusually quiet, and the atmosphere made people feel a little awkward.

Qiao Xiaoxi slept in the inner room, while Li Yanming slept in the outer room.

Lying in bed, Qiao Xiaoxi recalled what her father once said to her: "Don't have the intention to harm others, but be on guard against others!"

This sentence has been deeply engraved in Qiao Xiaoxi's heart, reminding her to stay vigilant at all times.

Although Li Yanming seemed friendly and harmless, they were not familiar with each other after all.

In this unfamiliar environment, Qiao Xiaoxi decided to act according to his father's teachings. It is always a good idea to be more careful.

She gently closed her eyes and tried to fall asleep, but the uneasiness in her heart would never go away.

As time passed, the night seemed to become longer and longer.

Qiao Xiaoxi tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

In this deep mountain, even though they lived in the same shack, Qiao Xiaoxi was not worried.

The reason was simple. Li Yanming was seriously injured at that time, and there was also a mighty and majestic tiger guarding his sister.

Qiao Xiaoxi thought back to yesterday when Li Tianyou was still at home, and now only her sister and Li Yanming were left, a pair of single men and women living in the same room.

Thinking of Li Yanming, his body as tall and strong as an iron tower, and then thinking of myself, with my petite figure weighing only 95 pounds, if I were really pressed down so heavily by Li Yanming, I'm afraid the consequences would be disastrous!

Thinking of this, Qiao Xiaoxi's expression changed slightly, and she prayed secretly in her heart that no accidents would happen.

How could a new woman of the 21st century like me travel to this strange ancient world?

But since I'm here, I'll just make the best of it. No matter where I am, I will never let myself lose my virginity.

Because only in this way can I have the chance to return to my era - the 21st century full of freedom and romance!

When I go back, I will pursue a beautiful love like the romantic love of flowers, snow and moon.

I want to walk hand in hand with my beloved through the streets and alleys, and feel each other's sincere and deep love; I want to wear the most beautiful wedding dress, put on exquisite makeup, and enter the palace of happy and perfect marriage with the most perfect attitude; I also want to support and help each other with him, spend the rest of my life together, and become a loving couple who grow old together.

Qiao Xiaoxi got up and walked around the inner room.

Got it!

Qiao Xiaoxi walked out of the inner room and saw Li Yanming sitting on the bed in the outer room.

Qiao Xiaoxi said with a smile: "Brother Li, it's not safe to leave the chicken in the outer room."

Li Yanming smiled and said, "Okay, Brother Li, take it to the girl's room."

The chicks were brought into the inner room, and Li Yanming placed the basket in front of Qiao Xiaoxi's bed.

Oh my god! Li Yanming understands my feelings.

Could it be that I am really judging others by my own mean standards?

Alas! I'm afraid I can only think like this.

Li Yanming has been a widower for eight years. Can he remain calm like Liuxia Hui?

I'm afraid only time can tell the answer to this question.

Before getting a definite answer, it is better for me to be cautious.

Qiao Xiaoxi went to the outer room and called to the yard: "Qiao Xiaohei, come in."

Qiao Xiaohei wagged his tail.

Qiao Xiaoxi smiled at Li Yanming and said, "Brother Li, I didn't mean anything else. I just slept soundly at night and was afraid that mice would harm the chicks."

Li Yanming smiled and said, "Yes, let Qiao Xiaohei watch the little chicken, and the girl can sleep peacefully."

Qiao Xiaoxi carefully took Qiao Xiaohei into the inner room.

He whispered to Qiao Xiaohei to stay at the door and watch, and gently touched its head as encouragement and comfort.

After completing all this, Qiao Xiaoxi finally felt relieved and could sleep peacefully.

After all, I had been running around the county town all day yesterday and was already exhausted!

Lying on the bed at this moment, feeling the soft bed and warm quilt, Qiao Xiaoxi quickly fell into a dream and had a good sleep without any strange or disturbing dreams.

When the first ray of bright sunlight in the morning shone on her through the wooden window, Qiao Xiaoxi slowly woke up.

Blink, stretch, and feel the tranquility and beauty.

Judging from the situation now, it is probably almost eight or nine o'clock in the morning.

Qiao Xiaoxi got up hurriedly, quickly washed and dressed, then walked out of the house refreshed.

The sun was shining in the yard, and Li Yanming was bending over and digging the soil hard.

Li Yanming looked up and saw Qiao Xiaoxi walking out of the room, and immediately put down the shovel in his hand.

He came over with a big smile on his face: "Girl, get up!"

Then he walked quickly into the house and carefully brought out a bamboo basket.

There was a group of chicks in the basket. They seemed to be starving and huddled together listlessly.

Qiao Xiaoxi panicked when she saw this and hurriedly prepared to cut vegetables for chicken feed.

Oh my! I slept so soundly that I forgot that the chicken was in my room.

Li Yanming couldn't break into the inner room, so the little chicken had to starve.

At this time, Li Yanming took out some chicken feed and put it aside.

"Don't worry, girl. Brother Li has prepared the chicken feed. Let's go have breakfast." After saying that, Li Yanming spread the chicken feed evenly and placed a bowl of water next to the bamboo basket.

Looking at the little chicks scrambling to peck at the food, Qiao Xiaoxi finally felt relieved.

Qiao Xiaoxi stood aside and observed silently with a satisfied look on her face.

This simple and warm scene makes Qiao Xiaoxi feel the tranquility and beauty in life.

Li Yanming went to get the porridge and buns and put them on the table.

He scooped a bowl of rice porridge for Qiao Xiaoxi and scooped one bowl for himself.

He picked up a meat bun with chopsticks and handed it to Qiao Xiaoxi.

The two started to eat breakfast.

Qiao Xiaoxi took a bite of the bun.

"Brother Li, were these buns made this morning?"

"Mm, girl, it's delicious when it's freshly made."

Early in the morning, I made dough for making buns.

In the 21st century, there are more than just breakfast shops.

In a family, few people are willing to go through this trouble.

Qiao Xiaoxi felt a little embarrassed.

We just met by chance, and he is not your sister or father.

"Brother Li, you don't have to be so tired in the future. I will eat whatever Brother Li eats."

Qiao Xiaoxi thought about it.

"Brother Li has prepared it. You can eat it first and don't have to wait for me."

Li Yanming smiled, revealing his beautiful white teeth.

"Miss, you're welcome. There are two of us having dinner together. Brother Li will wait for you to join us."

Li Yanming shook the bun in his hand.

"It's not a big deal. If you have anything you like to eat, just tell me and Brother Li will cook it for you."

Qiao Xiaoxi laughed quickly.

"I like to eat whatever Brother Li likes to eat. You don't have to prepare it for me."

Li Yanming smiled and continued eating.

After breakfast, Li Yanming was cleaning up.

Qiao Xiaoxi picked up a shovel and turned the soil.

This ancient shovel is very laborious to turn over.

Li Yanming watched Qiao Xiaoxi turning the soil skillfully.

This girl doesn't look like a noblewoman from the capital.

How many noble ladies can turn the soil?
