Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family

Chapter 156: Chapter 154 Regrets Turning to Ash: The Past Cannot Be Chased (Part 1)

“Huh? He actually dodged it!”

His opponent seemed quite surprised, wondering how his attack was suddenly evaded!

“Who exactly are you, and why are you targeting us?”

Zuo Xingyu’s furrowed brows tightened even more.

“Hmph! You might as well ask the King of Hell!”

The enemy’s attacks were getting faster and more frequent.

Zuo Xingyu responded by accelerating his defences generously, handling the situation with ease! He realized that they were probably being watched from the very start!

Apart from the old man, several men in black had joined the fray.

Zuo Xingyu’s mind was racing. Biting his teeth, he decided to risk it all!

He was back-stepping rapidly, his strength waning, barely managing to keep his balance.

“You’re seeking your own death! Haha…” The opponent aimed for his chest.

While the enemy was still laughing, Zuo Xingyu’s arm, as nimble as a snake, suddenly shot out, slapping the man…

“Uh!… Puff—”

Unable to swallow his own blood, the man turned his head to the side and spat a mouthful of fresh blood onto the ground. His body quickly collapsed.

Even in death, his eyes remained wide open.

At this moment, the remaining men in black crowded in.

When they saw their leader was dead, they quickly attacked Zuo Xingyu.

However, after a few exchanges, they all fell to the ground, motionless, under Zuo Xingyu’s hands.

Looking up, he saw Xiaoliang running over rapidly. Their eyes met and they both started laughing.

It seemed like the two of them will have to live like beggars for a while.

“Xingyu! You’re not hurt, are you?”

Xiaoliang inspected him from head to toe, finally relaxing upon seeing no obvious injuries.

“I’m fine. What about your end, any escapees…?” Zuo Xingyu quickly checked the dead bodies and carefully examined their faces.

He was an unfamiliar person, Zuo Xingyu did not recognize him.

“I’ve dealt with everything on my end. Hehe! This guy really was impressive! He calculated everything so accurately, I originally wanted to keep one alive for interrogation but was unable to do so. The enemy directly bit into a poison pill located in a gap in their teeth and died.” Xiaoliang said with resentment on his face.

“Indeed, he was remarkable! Seeing how you improved so much in just a few days, you’re truly amazing!” Zuo Xingyu nodded in admiration.

“Don’t mention it, it’s all thanks to you, Big Brother Zuo.”

Xiaoliang looked troubled, he was undoubtedly far inferior to Zuo Xingyu!

Were those words simply to mock him?

But seeing Zuo Xingyu’s earnest expressions, it didn’t seem likely!

Zuo Xingyu smiled nonchalantly, his eyes on Xiaoliang. Then, a curve appeared at the corners of his mouth.

“Let’s go! We should leave before we encounter the third wave of their people.”

With a swift flick of his body, he aimed a punch towards the corpses of the men in black. The punch landed heavily beside them, vibrating with hidden strength that explosively erupted. The mighty force was truly frightening!

Trying to hold back his laughter, he thought, this guy is really something!

Shortly after they left, several men wearing black veils appeared on the scene.

The group carefully surveyed the surroundings for a while before gathering by the leader’s side to discuss in a strange tone.

This tone was different from the local dialect, so fast-paced that it was hard to understand.

Afterward, they each disappeared into the darkness. The surroundings slowly returned to a state of tranquility, as if nothing had ever happened.

The next day, Liu Sisi was awakened by YingEr’s call.

Chirping like a little sparrow, she excitedly shared her discovery with her, “Mom, there is another bird that flew into our yard, you should hurry up and catch it.”

Another bird flew in?

Liu Sisi’s groggy consciousness finally returned to her brain, and when she got up and went out, she saw the sun was already high in the sky.

“Mom, hurry, hurry!”

YingEr excitedly pulled her hand forward.

Liu Sisi felt as if she had been run over by a train, and her legs were wobbly and trembling as she walked.

Nevertheless, she had to stay calm and went with YingEr to the side of the house.

Sure enough, there was a carrier pigeon hovering beside the pigeon cage.

Liu Sisi peered in and it looked like it was one of the two carrier pigeons that was released before and had now flown back.

She lifted her hand to try and catch it, but it got startled and flew up into the sky, circling around with its wings spread out.

Liu Sisi thought for a moment, then bent down to speak to YingEr, “YingEr dear, these are your father’s pigeons, and we cannot touch them. We would be in trouble if we scare them and they fly away. Let’s step away for a while and see.”

The two of them hid, and not long after, the carrier pigeon flew back and climbed into the pigeon cage.

Liu Sisi couldn’t resist her curiosity, so she sneakily took off a bamboo tube from the carrier pigeon and unrolled it to see only a few words, “Fast, August 15th,” with a few strange symbols.

Liu Sisi didn’t understand this cryptic sentence, so she returned the paper to the bamboo tube as it was, reattached it to the pigeon, put the pigeon back in the cage, and carefully placed it back in the hidden area on the top of the firewood room.

What exactly was Zuo Xingyu going to do on August 15th? It was really strange!

After thinking hard for a long time without getting any answers, Liu Sis simply stopped worrying about it.

“YingEr, have you had your meal yet?”

“Mommy has a shy face, mommy is still sleeping in, YingEr got up early, even went out with brother for a while. Look, YingEr also brought back food for the baby rabbit and the chicks, and you just got up.” YingEr pouted and looked at her with her head tilted, pretending to be shy with her little finger on her cheek, completely adorable.

“Ahem, ahem… Mommy is wrong, YingEr can’t learn mommy’s bad habits, okay?” Liu Sisi quickly patted her head lightly.

“I know! YingEr will never learn Mommy’s lazy habits, hehe…”

YingEr covered her little mouth and laughed.

“Let’s go! Let’s go to the kitchen and see if there is any food left.” Liu Sisi quickly changed the topic and took YingEr’s hand to the kitchen. “YingEr, where is your brother? How come I don’t see him?”

“Brother is practicing his writing again! He never plays with YingEr.” YingEr looked unhappy.

“Good girl! Your brother is studying, so you can’t disturb him, okay?”

“Mmm, Mommy, YingEr understands.” YingEr still looked a bit sullen.

Liu Sisi was seriously tired!

After eating, she went back to her room and fell asleep, only waking up to make lunch near noontime.

After lunch, while YingEr took her nap, Liu Sisi picked up the book and started to copy from it.

Xuan’er was quick at learning, although he couldn’t remember everything at first glance, he was able to give multiple interpretations to the characters and texts taught just by reading, reciting, and writing them a couple of times, which was quite impressive.

He had already finished studying the “Three Character Classic”. At the moment, what Liu Sisi was teaching him was the “the Analects”, these lifelong principles handed down from ancient times were always right to learn first.

“The learning process is all about gradual progression and proceeding at your own pace. You are young now, so you can’t just sit and read all day, that would be improper studying, and it could also lead to physical problems, like low resistance. Study for two hours, then take a walk, practice writing, and repeat this…”

While Liu Sisi was casually giving instructions, Xuan’Er was listening carefully.

“Mom, last time Xuan’er saw the students in the village school practicing writing, as well as playing musical instruments, even painting…”

“Don’t rush, you’re still young. It’s better to go step by step when learning all these things.”

While she was saying this, she thought of another issue and asked abruptly.

“Xuan’er, has your father checked your homework recently?”
