A poor hero

The two returned to Chen Chen's home.

The furnishings in this room are no different from those in Chen Chen's original owner's memory.

There is a square table in the middle of the hall with two chairs under the table.

Hanging on the wall was a bow and a quiver containing a dozen arrows. Chen Chen's father was a hunter. These were left behind by Chen Chen's father.

The original owner Chen Chen has left for three years, but the house is still spotless. It seems that the third aunt often comes here to help clean.

"Chen Chen, thank you for giving me a home."

Shen Qian thanked her heartily.

"What does this mean? I said I would give you a good life, and I will do it if I promise. Just wait and live a good life!"

Chen Chen took Shen Qian into a room and opened the cabinet.

"Chen Qian, you will sleep in this room from now on, and I will sleep on the other side."

Chen Chen took out a quilt from the cabinet, put it on the bed and told Shen Qian.

"Chen Chen, but I want to..."

Shen Qian coquettishly wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Chen Chen.

"Well, I understand. You want to take a bath. I'll go to the well and bring water back to you now."

Chen Chen and the others had been walking for a day, and their bodies were all sticky with sweat.

He had just been at his third aunt's house and was already thinking about something he had not done.

Now he finally remembered that he hadn't showered yet.

But Shen Qian's thoughts were not focused on this. Instead, she wanted to say that he was afraid and wanted to sleep in the same room as Chen Chen tonight.

After hearing Chen Chen's words, she remembered that she hadn't taken a shower either, so she replied: "Chen Chen, how about I go fetch water? I'm used to it."

"Chen Qian, sit down obediently for me. Besides, you don't know where the well is. It's so dark that if you fall into the well, you'll be in serious trouble."

Chen Chen rejected Shen Qian's idea.

When it comes to work, both of them are used as cattle at Master Xu's place, and fetching water is even more common.

So Chen Chen picked up two buckets and easily found the location of the well based on the memory of the original owner.

Although Chen Chen was thin and small, he usually did hard work and returned home easily carrying a load of water.

Shen Qian couldn't sit still and tidied up the room.

She was walking around looking for work.

But the third aunt had only helped with the cleaning two days ago, and there was no dust. Where could she find work?

The pot is a little dirty, but Chen Chen hasn't returned from fetching water yet, so he can't wash it.

When Chen Chen brought back the water, she hurried out to grab Chen Chen's burden.

"Chen Qian, go back and sit down quickly. Didn't I tell you to sit there and wait? Why did you run out?"

How could Chen Chen be willing to let this skinny little guy carry water? He gently blamed Shen Qian.

"But, but, this is our home, and I also want to do some work, otherwise I always feel like something is missing."

Shen Qian's nose turned red and she sobbed.

"Okay, little guy, I got it. I'll carry the water in and let you boil the water later."

Chen Chen gently scraped Shen Qian's nose, and then carried the water into the kitchen.

"Well, okay."

Now that there was work to do, Shen Qian instantly became happy and jumped and ran in, following Chen Chen.

Chen Chen first picked up a bucket of water, poured a little into the pot, washed the pot, then put the pot away and poured more than half of the pot of water into it.

"Okay, Chen Chen, you go out first, leave everything to me now."

Shen Qian drove Chen Chen out and lit a fire.

So Chen Chen took the remaining water and washed the basin and water tank.

He went to the well to pick up another load of water, and then stopped.

Shen Qian worked hard to light a fire in the kitchen and coughed from the smoke.

Although there is a lot of firewood in the kitchen, it has been raining a few days ago and the moisture has returned, so all the firewood has returned to moisture.

"Chen Qian, are you okay? Is the firewood wet?"

Seeing a lot of smoke coming from the kitchen, Chen Chen walked into the kitchen and asked with concern.

"Well, Chen Chen, it's okay. I'll make do with it tonight. The weather is nice these days. I'll just take the firewood out to dry in the sun tomorrow."

Shen Qian wiped her face and stuffed the firewood into the stove.

After a while, his face was covered with black and gray, and he turned into a little cat.

"Haha, little cat."

Chen Chen looked at Shen Qian's colorful face and laughed.

Shen Qian became shy when she saw Chen Chen staring at her face and smiling.

She lowered her head and hurriedly wiped her face with her hands, but the more she wiped her face, the darker it became.

"Okay, let's not talk about you anymore. You are very beautiful. You can go out first and let me boil water."

Chen Chen pulled Shen Qian out and started a fire himself.

Shen Qian walked to the water tank at the door and carefully smeared the black ash on her face with her fingers.

Soon, a pot of water boiled.

Chen Chen brought the bathtub and filled it with half a bucket of hot water, then added some cold water and tried with his hands to get it just warm.

"Chen Qian, go take a bath quickly, the water has been prepared for you."

Chen Chen walked out and spoke to Shen Qian who was washing her face at the water tank.

"Well, okay, I'll go. Thank you Chen Chen. This is the first person to boil water for me to take a bath."

Shen Qian blushed and looked at Chen Chen lovingly.

"Chen Qian, why are you talking about this? I promised you at the beginning that I will take good care of you. Go take a bath quickly, otherwise the water will get cold again."

Shen Qian had no choice but to take a shower with clean clothes.

Chen Chen returned to the hall, took down his father's bow and looked at it.

This kind of bow is a large bow called Kaiyuan Bow in the Ming Dynasty. It is made of bamboo body and ox horn, with mulberry elm as the bow and ox horn and solid wood as the bow.

It seems that Chen Chen's father was also a great person at the beginning, but unfortunately he was killed by a tiger in the end.

Chen Chen took the bow and made serious gestures.

"Chen Chen, I've finished washing. Go take a shower! I've already put the water in for you."

Shen Qian's rosy face, with a few drops of water attached to it, was extremely beautiful.

"Yeah, okay, I'll go."

Chen Chen put the bow away, returned to the room, took out a set of clean clothes, and took a shower.

"It's so nice. It's nice to be able to take a hot bath. These days are getting more and more beautiful. It's really a wise decision to escape from the East Village private school."

When Chen Chen took a hot bath, he couldn't help but sigh.

During the days he traveled through time, he worked from morning to night every day and didn't even have time to take a shower.

Every night, I just wipe my body with cold water.

Even so, he had to come secretly so that Master Xu wouldn't know, otherwise he would be scolded again.

Chen Chen washed for more than half an hour and waited until the water was completely cold before he could give it up.

By this time, it was completely dark.

Shen Qian was really tired this day. When Chen Chen returned to the hall, Shen Qian was already sitting on the chair and fell asleep.

Chen Chen gently picked up the little one, carried her into the room in the dark, carefully placed her on the bed, and covered her with a quilt.

Then he returned to his room, raised his pillow, and thought about his survival plan after tomorrow.
