Qi Yue almost immediately decided to leave.
She didn't go back to the gorge to ask Huang Zai'an who the helper was, or what his purpose was in doing this, she couldn't afford to care anymore.
At that moment, the sounds of Zhao Xiyan practicing martial arts came from the backyard, the clacking of his crutches hitting the ground, as if they were striking her heart.
She said to Little Shanzi, "Go back and tell the old man that I need to take care of some matters, I'll see him in three days."
She didn't tell Shen Yu about her leaving, nor did she intend to.
On the first day, she planted various vegetables in the front and back gardens: tomatoes, eggplants, green beans, and some melons.
The second day, she took a dozen rabbits from the space, built several large rabbit cages with Zhao Yonglian, and instructed a few young maids to look after them.
Rabbits breed quickly, and raising a herd meant they wouldn't have to worry about meat even if they couldn't hunt game.
