After the three of them left, Qiao Mai continued to wash the persimmons and prepare for tomorrow’s stall.

They first went to send the persimmons to Madam Chen. She was the closest. The children opened the door. When Madam Chen saw the unripe persimmons, she was still a little unhappy.

“Aunty, this is the persimmons that my mother dried. You can eat it after peeling it. It’s crisp and sweet.”

“Really, your mother is really capable.”

“Of course. You’re busy. I’ll send a basket to Shopkeeper Lu.”

Madam Chen saw that Shopkeeper Lu’s basket was so big and her basket was so small. She felt a little uncomfortable and saw Yuan Jiaqi following a few meters away.

She immediately smiled. “Brother Yuan, did you come out with the children?” “Yes, I’m worried about them. Sister Chen, we’ll be going to Shopkeeper Lu.”

“Good, good!”

After they left, Miss Chen looked at Yuan Jiaqi’s back with an aggrieved expression.

When Shopkeeper Lu saw the persimmons, she said happily, “Ah, you guys are here to send me pawns?”

“Yes, Auntie, quickly try it. You can eat it after peeling it with a knife.”

Shopkeeper Lu was very enthusiastic. She let the three little ones sit down in the shop and let Xiuhong and Xiuyu cut the persimmons on the spot.

“Quick, let’s try it together.”

“We’ve eaten and thought it was delicious, so Mother asked us to send it over.”

Shopkeeper Lu took a bite. “Yes, it’s delicious. I like the texture and taste. Your mother is really good. In the past, when it was the persimmons season, people usually wait until they were soft before eating them. I don’t like to eat that kind of food. It feels like it’s only eaten toothless old ladies.”

“Haha!”

Everyone laughed. Yuan Jiaqi, who was standing outside the shop, also laughed.

The children stood up. “Aunty Lu, we have to go home. Mother will miss us if we stay out for too long.”

“Go, go!”

The children came out of the house and skipped home. Yuan Jiaqi followed behind them.

At this moment, a man darted past him and was about to attack the three children. He was quick to react and bent down to pick up a stone and threw it at him.

The man screamed and turned around to curse.

“Why did you hit me?”

“I didn’t hit you.”

“Then why does my waist hurt so much?”

“I don’t know. Maybe you ran too fast just now and sprained it.”

As they spoke, the children stopped and quickly ran to Yuan Jiaqi’s side. The man realized that the three children had a guardin and immediately knew what had happened.

It turned out that he had been exposed. This man knew what he was doing, so he threw a rock at him.

Seeing that he was taller and stronger than him, the man snorted coldly and walked away with his hands on his waist.

Yuan Jiaqi quickly said to the three children, “Don’t follow the adults in the future. Don’t go out. That was a human trafficker.”

“What is a human trafficker?”

“f you come out alone, it’s very easy to be snatched away. In the future, you won’t be able to see your parents again.”

The three children quickly expressed their fear. “Daddy, let’s not go out anymore. We can’t lose our parents. It’s too scary.”

“Let’s go. Let’s hurry back.”

After returning home, the three of them told Qiao Mai about this matter, and Qiao Mai was furious.

“Big Brother Yuan, quickly go to the mayor’s house and tell him about that person’s appearance. Tell their guards to pay attention to him when they patrol. ”

“Okay, I’ll go now.”

After Yuan Jiaqi left, the children took over her work. Qiao Mai sat down and pondered.

There were many human traffickers in modern times, let alone in ancient times. If it was just an ordinary human trafficker, the most they could do was to keep the children from going out.

However, if someone targeted her, Qiao Mai gritted her teeth, indicating that her body had almost recovered.

She had around 60% of her previous body. If they dared to touch her, she would make them bear the consequences!

She clenched her fists and said, “Sons, you have to train your bodies well in the future. You have to follow your mother’s training. When you grow up, ordinary people can’t touch you.”

“Yes, Mother. We will definitely practice martial arts with Mother.”

Although she was a top student, her martial arts were also first-class. She could be considered a versatile talent who developed both civil and military skills.

Now that the Yuan family started teaching literature, she taught martial arts. She hoped that the children would grow up healthily.

If it really did not work, she would install a mini tracker on the child so that no matter where they were in the future, she would be able to find them immediately.

After a while, Yuan Jiaqi returned. “The mayor sent guards to search for this person in town.”

“Yes, whether you’re at home or out, you must be careful.”

“Don’t worry, they’ll try not to go out in the future. Just let me handle the matter of going out.”

“That’s the only way. I’ll catch the hateful human trafficker and tear his skin off.’

The news of the human traffickers in the town spread like wildfire. The children of every household were locked up at home.

Fortunately, they all had courtyards, unlike the modern skyscrapers that made people feel bored.

Qiao Mai went to set up the stall, and will her skills, several jars of fish were also quickly sold out.

According to her observations and what she had seen and heard, this dynasty mainly focused on food crops. There were some vegetable farmers, but there were still few vegetables in winter.

It was better in the south. There were vegetables in the winter, but they were rotten when they were transported here.

There were also fruit farmers. They were all from rich families. Very few people planted fruit trees on a large scale.

Because it required a lot of manpower, financial resources, and money, it was not easy to manage. Even if someone spent a lot of effort to grow it, it was only to sell it to the rich. These fruits were generally difficult to appear in small places.

Ever since Qiao Mai and Yuan Jiaqi started working together, no one had come to disturb their lives.

Every day was peaceful and warm. At the end of September, it rained and the weather turned cold.

It was no longer acceptable to be single. Yuan Jiaqi bought two sets of autumn clothes for each family member from the clothing store. Ruxin and Ruyi also bought autumn clothes for Qiao Mai.

This was a gift from a disciple to a master. Normally, each of them should make two sets for her each season, which was a total of sixteen sets of clothes.

Qiao Mai did not allow them to do it. There were too many clothes for her to wear, but the two of them did not listen. They said that she did not have any clothes and that they had to be filial to her for two years.

Shopkeeper Lu did not care much and just let the children be.

During the rainy days, she stayed at home and cook more for the children. She even called Shopkeeper Lu and Madam Chen, who was next door, over.

During this season, the fish and prawns in the river were the fattest. She took out the pickled fish, three fresh blood curd, chicken popcorn, chicken tenderloin, and some crispy chicken pieces from the freezer.

The first two dishes were heated up, and the latter ones were fried. Although there were not many dishes, the amount was especially large.

Spicy food was the most popular among everyone. The children at the back liked it the most, and so did the adults.

After drinking a little wine, she felt that the more she thought about it, the more she thought that life was good.

Especially Yuan Jiaqi. Ever since he came to the Qiao family, he gradually seemed to forget that he and Madam Qiao was a fake couple.

He was serious toward his family, the outside world, her, and the three children.

When he went out, he always referred to Qiao Mai as his wife. However, Qiao Mai had never called him ‘Hubby’.

Some people were in character, while others were not.

Madam Chen looked at the loving family and was envious. She was angry at Qiao Mai and at herself at the same time. She was very conflicted. She had hidden it well and Qiao Mai had never found out.

On the first day of October, the weather was clear. Qiao Mai had just opened his stall when the mayor strolled over with his hands behind his back. He smiled like a big wolf.

“Madam Qiao, are you setting up your stall?”

“Yeah, why are you always busy?”

“Do you still remember what you promised?”

“The recipes?”

“What do you think?”

“I haven’t had any fresh food recently.”

“How about that crispy persimmon?”

“That? It’s too simple. It’s free. I’ll tell you right away.” The mayor looked around. “Lower your voice.”

“Just soak it in warm water for five or six days and seal it in a jar.”

“Is it that simple?”

“Yes, you have to use hard persimmons. Soft ones won’t do. The best ones slightly unripe ones.”

“I understand. It’s too simple. This doesn’t count.”

“It’s for you for free!”
