Chen Mu and Chen Ergou were not too sad about their father's death.

Maybe because Chen Tang had committed too many sins while he was still alive, the siblings felt that his death was a form of release. After burying Chen Tang, they felt that they had let Chen Tang down.

The two of them spoke more, and Lu Jinfeng came over to look for the two of them for a meal. Chen Mu Mu Mu looked at Chen Ergou's smart and silly expression, and had a thought in his heart.

"Lu Jinfeng, do you have time recently?"

Lu Jinfeng looked at her, "If you have something to say, just say it, why are we being so courteous?"

He was living under the same roof, and since he was still her worker, there was no need to be polite.

Chen Mu Mu Mu's eyes flashed, and said: "If it's convenient for you, then take some time to teach Chen Ergou martial arts. Otherwise, if he continues to be so lazy and idle like this, sooner or later, he will lose his identity. "

Hearing that, Chen Ergou looked at Chen Mu Mu Mu with a bitter face, he dared not say anything.

He had nothing to do, but that was before, and now he had decided to change his mind and become a good person. As a sister, could she not pick at his scars whenever she had the chance?

Naturally, Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu acted as though she didn't see it.

It was a good thing that the young man was ambitious, and it was also easy to catch fish in the sun every few days. The reason she hurt him more was also for his own good.

Lu Jinfeng nodded his head: "Then Big Brother, wake up at dawn everyday and train with me. I will teach you two more hours of literacy in the future."

Although Lu Jinfeng was born in a village, he wasn't blind from not knowing a word. On the contrary, it was because when Lu Dayi was alive, he was an Elementary Scholar, so he had quite a bit of knowledge in him.

In the ancient times, educated people had a high status, but it was a pity that Lu Dayi didn't have a long life. If he wanted to become an Elementary Scholar, he would be dragged down by people like Madam Niu, causing him to die from anger.

For Lu Jinfeng to be able to teach Chen Ergou how to read, he definitely had to be more meticulous than others.

"Wait." Chen Ergou was a little confused.

Chen Mu's eyebrows twitched, "Why? There's someone willing to teach you, and you think you're too tired?"

"No." Chen Ergou looked at Lu Jinfeng helplessly and foolishly, "He's older than me, why does he call me big brother?"

Chen Mu smirked and looked at Lu Jinfeng with interest.

The corner of Lu Jinfeng's mouth widened into a smile. "The so-called 'woman singing husband as she follows her.' Mu Mu's big brother is naturally my big brother as well."

He spoke shamelessly, but Chen Ergou was a little confused, "Little sister, didn't you say that you two didn't pay your respects and now have adopted his mother as your mother? Are you related to him as a sworn brother?"

Why did it come to this? Did he have a relative, or a brother-in-law?

"No one says that siblings can't get married." Lu Jinfeng shamelessly spoke with righteousness and a face that seemed to say it was as if it was taken for granted, "Brother, you should also know that Chen Mu Mu originally married into our family."

"But you're not married." "Even though Chen Ergou is young, she's not an easy target," Without going to the shrine and getting married, it can't be counted as. "My sister is still an unmarried woman, so you should stop tarnishing her reputation there."

"That's not true." Lu Jinfeng argued with him, her face filled with righteousness, "Although she didn't go to visit, she passed through my door, so she is also an unmarried couple."

"With the word 'not', the meaning will be different." Chen Ergou glared at him, "It's fine if you call me big brother, but don't spout nonsense outside. If you ruin my sister's reputation, I won't forgive you."

This brother-in-law, even before he acted like one, he was already standing on top of the tree.

Lu Jinfeng found it funny, but he knew that Chen Ergou did it for Chen Mu Mu's sake, so he smiled and agreed.

"Big brother, don't worry. I will definitely not ruin Mu Mu's reputation."

Hearing him say that, Chen Ergou nodded his head, still feeling worried: "No one can explain the future clearly, Chen Mu Mu Mu is only twelve years old now, and is still a long time away from reaching adulthood. Lu Jinfeng, you two have already become sworn siblings, outside, just call me brother and sister."

Was he trying to push him away? Lu Jinfeng was slightly unhappy: "Uncle, in any case, you're still an unmarried couple. Your words are not kind at all."

"My sister hasn't married you yet. Do you want her to suffer a loss?" On the other hand, Chen Ergou protected him well, he was not willing to back down at all, "Then it's decided, you little white face, I'll have to help my little sister plan for her in the future."

Upon mentioning the pretty boy, Lu Jinfeng's face darkened.

Chen Mu was amused by this. He couldn't help but laugh, "Stop arguing, let's do it this way."

Although Lu Jinfeng was filled with unwillingness, he was unwilling to let Chen Mu down. He could only agree, but after agreeing, he did not forget to flirt with Chen Mu Mu, "I will definitely not attract bees and butterflies, my heart will only stay behind for you."

Chen Mu cast a sidelong glance at him. "Fine, then you can just stand by my side."

Lu Jinfeng nodded silently.

Chen Ergou was puzzled: "Little sister, I have only heard of women protecting their bodies like jade for men, why have I never heard of men protecting their bodies like jade?"

Is this my brother? Why is it always my sister's fault?

Chen Mu straightened his face and looked at Chen Ergou, "Not only him, you too. Men and women were all human beings. They ate the same food and did the same thing, and the women even had to bear children in October. It was countless times more difficult than men, so how could they be inferior to men? Let me tell you, love is relative to begin with. If you can't be completely devoted to your spouse, why would your spouse be so dedicated to you? "

Chen Mu Mu Mu spoke in a serious tone, "Chen Ergou, from today onwards, you have to correct your misconception. Don't talk about other things, just compare me to you, no man will be able to support myself. As for you, you can't do laundry or cook, you can't sprinkle water or do household chores, you don't know how to support a family, and you're not good at bearing children. What's the use of you and which woman is unlucky enough to marry you? If you don't serve your wife like a jade, wouldn't that mean that you're even inferior to animals living on the streets? "

"This …" Chen Ergou scratched his head, "That seems to be the case."

But why did he feel that something was wrong?

"From ancient times until now, men and women were all responsible for raising their families. women were responsible for teaching their sons and daughters. Everything was equal." "A man has strength, and a woman's hands are dexterous. No one is more noble or inferior than another, especially in relationships. If you are unfaithful, your spouse would definitely be unclean. At that time, do you think that you are the one who is bullying your wife, or are you the one who is stealing men for your wife? Do you think that you are at a disadvantage?"

Chen Ergou was dumbstruck: "There is such a thing?"

If a man was unfaithful, would a woman be unclean?

If that was the case, then the husband would definitely lose his life. Maybe the child he would give birth to wouldn't be his, so he had to be a bit worried.

"So, the man must be good to the girl. So good that she is willing to die for you. Only then will she win." Chen Mu Mu continued to brainwash her. "If a man is unable to control the ground beneath his feet or the woman in his embrace, how failed would that man be?"

Chen Ergou looked at Chen Mu Mu Mu in a daze, feeling as though his brain was stuck on its own, unable to react in time.

Was this how the value of men was expressed?

Lu Jinfeng also had a face full of thought, what she said was naturally exaggerated, but it didn't seem to be false?

Chen Mu Mu Mu saw the foolish expressions of the two of them and shook his head. He then gave a bowl of food to Aunt Wang, who was smiling happily, "Eating, let's ignore them."

Aunt Wang smiled and gave her a big thumbs up, he then said emotionally, "Girl, if I had a eloquence like you when I was young, I wouldn't have been what I am today."

Chen Mu Mu was noncommittal.

Only words had any use. Women had to be strong in order to be heard.

If she had no money now and still relied on men to live, Lu Jinfeng and Yue Yang would definitely not agree with what she had said today.

As the New Year approached, Chen Mu Mu Mu's food workshop was suspended. Although she had lost quite a bit of money, with Qin Tianshui, the head of the family, helping her, and the Shangguan family coming forward to take more than half of it, she didn't lose much money.

Shangguan Bai did not reveal her design to the public, but after putting it in the Feather Workshop s and other places, the results were exceptionally good, deeply favored by noble lords and officials, especially those unique limited edition designs, even the sky-high prices couldn't meet the demand.

Needless to say, Chen Mu had earned a huge sum of silver.

With this silver, along with the blackmail order and Chen Baifu's thousand silver, he would have a good year.

The County Magistrate was suspicious of Chen Mu Mu's identity, so he didn't dare cause trouble after being extorted. The mysterious killer from the capital didn't seem to have given her any money, so Shangguan Bai went to the village a few times and took out several designs, telling her that he would attack the capital market after the end of the year.

After being scolded by Chen Mu several times, Chen Ergou had changed his mind and changed his appearance. Every morning, he would wake up to train, at night to read, and during the day to help with odd jobs. He was not too bad, because he had received timely and considerate treatment, Madam Li's legs and feet were already able to walk on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the new year had finally arrived.

Because there was still some spare money this year and they had also come out from jail, barely surviving the calamity, Madam Li, Lu Jinfeng, Chen Mu and Chen Ergou all decided to have a good year. Thus, their whole family went to the town to buy New Year's gifts.

Madam Niu brought a Taoist to the Lu family's gate.

The Daoist Priest only glanced at the door, made some calculations, and then announced, "There is a monster in this house. If we don't remove him in time, he will harm his family and the village. The longer he spends there is, the more his cultivation will become monstrous, and at that time, the consequences would be unimaginable."

The Spirit Cultivator was called Xiao Sezi, he would perform some techniques to exorcise the devils, and was considered quite famous in the Wu Li Eight Village. With his shout, the villagers of Xingyu Village all ran out, and even the village head was alarmed.

The backward village, the feudal ancient era, was extremely superstitious. Moreover, Xiao Sezi had some ability.

Therefore, the Village Head suggested, "For the safety of the villagers, we should ask you to do a matter of law."
