Ever since saving Shuanzi that day, the Liu family's courtyard had been bustling with activity.

Every day, many little babies came running to play with Liu Yusheng, Axiu, and Qian Wanjin.

Although the scars on Axiu's face were still ugly and hideous, the fact that he helped save Shuanzi together that day made the babes think that he wasn't that hard to approach, and his face wasn't that scary.

In addition, although Qian Wanjin was already 12 years old, he was outgoing and talkative in nature. Whenever he spoke without airs, he could always get along with children. So when the two young men were playing with the bunch of little turnip heads, the atmosphere was fully harmonious.

In contrast, Axiu was aloof and quiet, so Qian Wanjin deservedly became the king of children.

As it was spring sowing time, the winery gave the workers a few days off; and while the adults were busy in the fields, children could be seen playing everywhere on the ridges, paths and ditches.

Happy and innocent.

"Ouch, no more, no more, I'm getting old to toss you up! Playing with these little turnip heads for a while, and I can't even straighten my back." Qian Wanjin supported his waist and gasped for breath. He walked to the edge of the ridges and sat next to Liu Yusheng, mocking himself bitterly.

Liu Yusheng smiled and said, "Aren't you determined to be the king of the children? Don't you even have enough skill to do it?"

"Qi deficient and weak, no way." Axiu commented.

Liu Yusheng thought that it was pretty accurate.

On the contrary, as soon as Qian Wanjin heard this, he immediately exploded and almost jumped up. "What Qi deficient and weak?! What no way?! I'm strong. Once I'm refreshed, I'm gonna go down there and defeat them some more! Jokes aside, do you think I can't play with those bunch of carrot heads?"

Liu Yusheng and Axiu turned their heads and declined to comment on his defense.

"Hey, what do you mean, guys? Are you looking down on me? Let me tell you, Lucky Nannan, I've been working out every day since I lost weight! I don't dare to say how it was before, but now I can run three laps around the entire Xinhua Village without panting!"

"Okay, okay, I know you're powerful. Drink some water and rest for a while." Liu Yusheng picked up the water jug she brought with her and handed it over.

Only then was Qian Wanjin satisfied with the reprieve. His father told him that a man, at no time should say no!

He opened the jug, pouring the water straight into his mouth. He gulped and wiped his mouth with a smack. "Lucky Nanan, your water is really particularly delicious! It's sweet and refreshing. When you're tired, take a few sips and your fatigue will go away. Good stuff!"

Speaking of which, he took a furtive look around, leaned to Liu Yusheng's ear, and whispered, "Lucky Nannan, tell me secretly. Did you add some specially prepared herbs in your water, too? Other than quenching thirst, I really haven't seen water from the commoners that has anti-fatigue effects."

Taking in the young man's gossipy posture, Liu Yusheng pursed her lips and smiled faintly. "What do you think?"

Under the morning breeze, the girl smiled faintly, the hair on her fluttering in the wind. Her skin was almost transparent under the fine sunlight. A mischievous meaning was crawling out from her pink curled lips.
