Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The old couple had mixed feelings about Luo Cheng.

They had hatred and resentment towards him, but they had to admit that the other party had done something that benefited them.

Without Luo Cheng, no one would have known even if they had starved to death at home.

“By the way, there’s one more thing. Since everyone is here, let’s share it! In order to thank the villagers for taking care of us all these years, I plan to build a school in the village. Duan Cheng will be the teacher of the school in the village in the future. When Mr. Duan took the scientific examination, he was the top scholar! Now that I’ve invited him back, the children of the surrounding villages can be sent to the school to study!” Luo Cheng thought of something and told them about the school.

The villagers of Hele Village immediately cheered.

One had to know that if such a teacher started a school in the village, the children in the village would be very lucky.

Someone in the crowd asked, “Your Highness, where will you open the school? Do you need our help?”

“The location of the school hasn’t been decided yet. As for the construction of the school, if we need everyone’s help, we will definitely inform you guys!” Luo Cheng said, “We have to discuss this with the village chief, so please wait patiently!”

As soon as Luo Cheng finished speaking, he glanced at Duan Cheng, who walked forward to greet everyone.

“Hello, everyone! I’m Duan Cheng. I’ll be living in Hele Village in the future.

Please be of guidance in the future!”

A quick-witted person quickly replied, “Mr. Duan, don’t worry. The villagers of Hele Village are enthusiastic and friendly. We’ll leave our children to you in the future!”

“That’s right! Our children are all mischievous, so please help discipline them in the future, Mr. Duan!” The others also chimed in.

Mr. Duan replied with a smile, “How can children not be naughty? It’s in their nature! But don’t worry, I’ll definitely discipline them strictly. When the time comes, please don’t feel sorry for the children who are being disciplined too strictly! After all, I hope that they can become successful in the future!”

The villagers nodded in agreement, indicating that Mr. Duan could discipline them however he saw fit.

After exchanging pleasantries, Luo Cheng left with his men.

Granny Huang stayed behind and urged Wang Ying and Zhang Hong to tidy up the courtyard.

As for Li Qiang and Li Wei, they were taken away by the people Luo Cheng had left behind after packing two sets of clothes.

At noon, Luo Cheng asked someone to send some rice, noodles, lard, and vegetables over.

The Li family had been living a poor life recently and weren’t in good health, so they had to eat their fill first.

Of course, Luo Cheng didn’t give them these things for free.

The cost of these things would be deducted from Li Qiang and Li Wei’s salary.

Wang Ying and Zhang Hong, who had finally cleaned up the courtyard after four hours, were brought into the kitchen by Granny Huang to cook.

Because the kitchen was too dirty, Granny Huang didn’t teach the two of them how to cook. Instead, she let Wang Ying and the others cook according to how they used to cook.

After eating and drinking their fill, they were given another hour to rest. Then, she came to the Li family’s house in the afternoon and made the two of them tidy up the kitchen.

Although Wang Ying and Zhang Hong were tired, they felt more energetic after eating and resting for an hour.

At night, Granny Huang began to teach them how to cook.

A decent dinner was cooked bv Wang Ying and Zhang Hong.

After Sr. Li and Madam Li ate it, they felt that it tasted very good.

Granny Huang glanced at the Li family.

“Your bodies will definitely be sore after working all day. Take a warm bath, or else your arms and legs will be sore tomorrow! In the future, you have to shower every day and wash your hair every two days. I’ll come and check. Not only you, but the two elders and the children at home are the same!”

Granny Huang paused at this point.

“To be honest, His Highness is really kind to you guys. He could have given you guys money and let you guys live an indulgent life every day. When His Highness wants to abandon you guys, you guys won’t be able to survive. However, His Highness didn’t do so. Not only did he spend a lot of effort to invite me from the royal family, but he also hired a capable teacher for your village. Perhaps you won’t understand his good intentions, but you have to understand that as long as you behave and do as I say, your good days will naturally come! ”

With that, Granny Huang turned around and left, disregarding what the Li family thought.

After returning, Granny Huang reported what she had done today to Luo

Cheng.

Luo Cheng nodded in satisfaction.

“Granny Huang, I’ll leave the Li family’s matters to you! I don’t ask the Li family to be more ambitious. I just want them to live a good life and not drag me down! In the future, you don’t have to report every day. Just do whatever you want with them!”

After hearing Luo Cheng’s words, Granny Huang knew what to do. Then, she began to plan how to discipline the Li family.

Li Qiang and Li Wei were brought to a workshop by Luo Cheng’s men.

Speaking of which, this job actually wasn’t that bad.

They ate their fill on time every day and would be given a few sets of work clothes to wear, but they didn’t have much time to rest.

Other than resting at night and noon, they worked non-stop in the workshop.

It wasn’t tiring, but it wasn’t relaxing either. After a busy day, they didn’t have the energy to do anything else.

Just like that, the two of them were forced to live a routined life. They had to work every day to earn money, and their lives became busy and fulfilling.

Of course, Luo Cheng wasn’t an unreasonable person. The brothers could take a day off after working nine days.

They could come home three days a month.

When the brothers rushed home, they could barely recognize their house. The courtyard, which originally looked dilapidated, had already become clean and tidy.

The vegetable garden had also been tidied up, and the vegetables and fruits were growing well.

What surprised the brothers even more was that their wives looked much more energetic and rosier than before..
