"Brother Yang, what exactly is this letter?" Wang Yufang blinked and asked softly.

"It's nothing, just some housework..." Yang Ming smiled slightly, waved his chopsticks over the dishes, and called out, "Everyone, hurry up and eat..." As he spoke, he picked up a piece of bean sprouts and ate it.

"Yes, yes, let's eat..." Although Wang Huifang was certain that the contents of that letter were not simple, she wouldn't press Yang Ming for details, nor would she let her sister continue to ask. She quickly urged him on.

"Brother Yang, my name is Li Xuefei, I admire you so much..." Li Xuefei, however, didn't notice the letter and said sweetly, "I heard from Erfang that you and your wife have a matching outfit. Can I see it?"

The couple outfits that Li Xuefei mentioned were naturally those two sets of "Twelve Chapters Outfits".

"Yes, Brother Yang, we've heard Erfang talk about it, and we're all so envious. Let's see..." Zhuo Mengfei, who had always been competing with Li Xuefei, surprisingly agreed with Li Xuefei today.

"That's no problem..." Yang Ming smiled slightly. "If you're not in a hurry, I'll give each of you a set of Hanfu when you leave. Speaking of which, it was all thanks to you two chivalrous young ladies who bravely saved my daughter at the train station..."

"Hehe..." Li Xuefei and Zhuo Mengfei giggled shyly, their little faces turning slightly red, but they did not refuse.

Is giving clothes the only way to repay the debt of saving their daughter? Actually, it's easy to understand. When the two women learned that Xiao Bao'er was poisoned and couldn't get wet, they were terrified. At that moment, they realized that although they meant well, they almost did something terrible.

Because of their coercion, the man crushed the mineral water bottle, almost triggering the toxins in Xiao Bao'er's body. The dog must have been lying in wait, but it held back because it was wary of the 'water' in the man's hand. In fact, they almost messed things up. They were already very happy that Yang Ming didn't blame them, because two sets of clothes had made the matter pass by. They couldn't be happier.

Besides, the two girls are kind-hearted and had no impure thoughts when they saved people. They wouldn't accept the RMB reward, but the two sets of clothes would be just right.

"Brother Yang..." Zhuo Mengfei, who was quite good at using coquettish language, said in a very charming voice, "Can I stay at your house for a few days?"

"Uh..." Yang Ming felt goosebumps rise all over his body. He had never imagined that someone could wield their voice to such a level, so sweet and charming that it made one's bones melt and one's nerves go numb. He couldn't help but nod repeatedly, "Yes, yes, of course..."

"Thank you, Brother Yang..." Zhuo Mengfei smiled broadly.

"Brother Yang..." Li Xuefei couldn't be like Zhuo Mengfei; she could only gaze at Yang Ming with her big, eager eyes.

"Yes, yes..." Yang Ming nodded repeatedly.

"Thank you, Brother Yang..." Li Xuefei smiled broadly.

"You two aren't going back??? We're already in our second year of high school. If we miss our classes, we won't be able to catch up..." For some reason, Wang Yufang felt a little uncomfortable when she heard that her two best friends were going to stay at Yang Ming's house.

"Brother Wang, after you finish eating, when you take Sister Dafang to the city, please take Erfang back with you. Remember, you must take Erfang to the school gate..." Zhuo Mengfei said with a smile.

"Okay...no problem..." Brother Wang quickly agreed. In this small village, he was not worried about Zhuo Mengfei's safety at all. Ji Xiang was one, Zhang Jianhui was another, and Yang Ming was yet another. They were all experts whose true strength he could not fathom.

"Who said I was going back??? I'm not going back..." Wang Yufang said, her face flushed and a little annoyed.

For some reason, seeing Zhuo Mengfei and Li Xuefei getting close to Yang Ming, she had a feeling that she had let a wolf into the house, and she couldn't help but feel very regretful. She really shouldn't have brought them here.

"Aren't you worried about it interfering with your studies?" Zhuo Mengfei had no other thoughts, and looked at Wang Yufang with some surprise.

"If none of you are afraid, why should I be?" Wang Yufang rolled her eyes at Zhuo Mengfei and said.

"Hehe..." Li Xuefei seemed to have thought of something, glanced at Wang Yufang with a somewhat ambiguous look, smiled softly, and buried her head to eat.

"Hehe..." Wang Huifang sensed her sister's abnormality, and her heart was filled with turbulent waves. However, she only chuckled and did not dare to confront her directly. She had already made up her mind to interrogate her properly when no one was around. If she was right, she would definitely deal with her quickly.

Everyone continued eating breakfast. Li Xuefei and Zhuo Mengfei, being naturally lively, chattered away at the table, constantly asking Yang Ming questions. The atmosphere at breakfast was lively.

"Yang Ming..." As breakfast was nearing its end, the old swindler quietly walked in from outside. "Things are looking promising. Come with me for a video call..."

"Okay..." Yang Ming quickly got off the kang (heated brick bed) and greeted everyone, "Eat and drink well, everyone. Don't be shy with me. My family may lack many things, but we certainly don't lack good food. I have some things to attend to, so I'll head over first..."

"Brother Yang, you go about your business, don't worry about us..." Wang Yufang said with a smile.

"Yes, Brother Yang, you go ahead and do your work..." Zhuo Mengfei said with a smile and in a sweet voice.

"Brother Yang, you go ahead and get busy..." Li Xuefei said with a smile.

Yang Ming twitched his lips and left with the old swindler.

"That old man, I feel like I've seen him somewhere before..." Brother Wang frowned, carefully searching his memory.

"Brother Wang, is this some kind of occupational hazard? How come you know everyone???" Zhuo Mengfei rolled her eyes at Brother Wang. "That old man, is he some notorious bandit???"

"A notorious thief???" Brother Wang's pupils contracted, and he slapped his thigh suddenly. "Oh, I remember now, it's Old Master Tian! I didn't expect him to be here..."

"Huh???" Zhuo Mengfei was taken aback. "That old man really has some kind of background???"

"Of course..." Brother Wang said excitedly, "Grandpa Tian is one of the top masters in the world. He even gave us pointers when we were training..."

"You're not talking about Tian Qiaosheng, the master of Bagua, are you?" Li Xuefei glanced at Brother Wang and said.

"You know about this too???" Brother Wang looked at Li Xuefei with some surprise.

"Of course I know, he's the third best in the world..." Li Xuefei said calmly. "My maternal grandfather told me that my great-grandfather once fought him and said he was as slippery as an eel..."

"Cough cough..." Brother Wang coughed violently, "The 'playing the fighting' style is a characteristic of Baguazhang..."

"I didn't say anything, did I?" Li Xuefei pouted, picked up a bowl of soup, and drank it gently.

"Hehe..." Brother Wang chuckled, "I wonder who your great-grandfather was..."

"Guanzhong Red Fist..." Li Xuefei said.

"Oh my, it's Senior Niu..." Brother Wang was taken aback. "Senior Niu is invincible throughout Shaanxi..."

"Tch, he's only invincible in Shaanxi, I thought he was invincible throughout the world..." Zhuo Mengfei's tone was sour.

"Hmph..." Li Xuefei glanced at Zhuo Mengfei with an extremely disdainful expression, as if mocking someone's ignorance.

"Mengfei, don't talk nonsense..." Just as Zhuo Mengfei was about to say something, Brother Wang glared at her, "Senior Niu never leaves Shaanxi easily, but his strength is absolutely not to be underestimated. Back then, many martial arts masters from other provinces came to learn from him, but they all returned defeated. Only three people could fight Senior Niu without being defeated..."

"Aren't there still three left???" Zhuo Mengfei retorted, unconvinced.

"I only said they wouldn't lose, I didn't say they'd win..." Brother Wang's expression was grave. "Do you know the current status of these three in the martial arts world?"

"What are you keeping me in suspense for???" Zhuo Mengfei rolled her eyes at Brother Wang. "You're not trying to say that these three are ranked among the top three in the martial arts world, are you???" As she spoke, she picked up the soup and slurped it down in one gulp.

"Who told you that??? I don't remember telling you that???" Brother Wang looked surprised.

"Pfft..." Zhuo Mengfei spat out a mouthful of soup, her eyes wide with surprise. "What did you say???"

"Hmph..." Li Xuefei looked at Zhuo Mengfei's disheveled appearance, feeling quite pleased with herself. "That ignorant girl was scared, wasn't she???"

"Oh ho..." Zhuo Mengfei looked at Li Xuefei with a mocking tone, "I didn't expect someone to come from a martial arts family..."

Li Xuefei's face immediately darkened.

"Mengfei, don't talk nonsense..." Brother Wang glared at Zhuo Mengfei. "Grandpa Niu sacrificed his life during the War of Resistance Against Japan. He was an anti-Japanese hero..."

"Uh..." Zhuo Mengfei's tone faltered, and she fell silent. Anti-Japanese heroes should not be desecrated. Looking at Li Xuefei's dark face, she felt even more uneasy.

"Hehe, everyone, say less, say less..." Wang Yufang quickly tried to smooth things over.

"After my great-grandfather died, our Guanzhong Red Fist sect scattered into several small factions. Don't talk nonsense to me anymore. If you dare to spread rumors about Guanzhong Red Fist, I'll break your nose..." Li Xuefei said coldly, pointing at Zhuo Mengfei's nose.

"Uh..." Zhuo Mengfei knew she was in the wrong, and she endured Li Xuefei's terrible attitude, but her face was already bright red.

"Alright, alright, calm down. We're all classmates, don't make things too tense. Whatever you have to say, let it go. Nobody should hold a grudge..." Wang Huifang quickly tried to mediate.

Brother Wang didn't say anything. After all, it was a matter of martial arts, and it was best to resolve it according to the rules of the martial arts world. He didn't want to interfere too much.

Zhuo Mengfei was a stubborn person. When it came to the anti-Japanese heroes, although she wouldn't argue with Li Xuefei, anyone could see the resentment in her eyes. Although Li Xuefei warned Zhuo Mengfei harshly, she didn't see the other party bow her head and was also unhappy. She glared at Zhuo Mengfei fiercely.

The two remained locked in a stalemate, and the atmosphere in the room instantly became awkward and tense. The two girls' auras clashed constantly, neither willing to give in.

Before long, Yang Ming returned. As soon as he lifted the curtain, he sensed an eerie atmosphere in the room and was taken aback.

"What's wrong with you guys???" Yang Ming asked.

"Brother Yang is back???" Wang Huifang smiled somewhat awkwardly, got off the kang (a heated brick bed), and said, "The kids are just being silly..." before heading straight out of the room.

"Cough cough..." Wang Yufang coughed lightly twice and got off the kang (a heated brick bed). "I need to pee..." she said, using the excuse of needing to urinate to slip away.

The two sisters hurriedly fled the battlefield, which shows how oppressive the atmosphere must have been.

"Alright..." Yang Ming clapped his hands lightly, and the invisible aura seemed to burst instantly like a bubble. "You guys stay home and have fun. I have some important business to attend to and will be away for a few days. If you need anything, just ask Ruyi. If you want anything to eat, just call Jixiang and don't be shy..." With that, he opened the cabinet, took out the laptop, stuffed it into his laptop bag, and hurriedly left.

Then, the sound of a car engine came from outside the courtyard...

"Hmph..." The two women exchanged a glance, snorted coldly at the same time, and turned their heads away.

"Phew..." Brother Wang wiped the cold sweat dripping from his forehead. His body was sticky with sweat, and his sweat-soaked underwear clung to his body, making him very uncomfortable. However, he was filled with relief. "Luckily, Brother Yang arrived in time, otherwise I would have made a fool of myself..." Feeling the urge to urinate, Brother Wang quickly got off the kang (a heated brick bed) and ran towards the woods outside the courtyard.

Little Bao'er squatted in the corner, elbows on his knees, chin in his hands, watching with great interest the three beautiful older sisters who were performing the magic trick of turning people into real beings not far away.

"Bao'er..."

Aunt Liu's voice faintly reached her ears, but the little one was so engrossed in watching the "magic trick" that Aunt Liu's shouts went directly into her left ear and came out of her right.

It's said that many children are so engrossed in watching TV that they can't hear their parents no matter how much they call them. Of course, it's rare for a child to be so absorbed in a lesson that they become completely absorbed in it.

"Baby, where are you???"

Wei Qingqing's voice was no more effective than Liu Sao's; the little guy's big eyes were fixed on the beautiful older sister who kept appearing.

"eighteen……"

Yang Shijiu glanced at Xiao Bao'er not far away. They had already noticed the little one. "Is that little girl brought by the master? Are you two ladies looking for her?"

"Hmm..." Yang Shiba nodded, "The master brought her back; I heard she's the eldest young lady..."

"You stubborn fool..." Yang Shijiu glared at Yang Shiba. "You and Twenty continue cultivating the bio-humans. I'm going to go take a look..." As she spoke, she swayed her slender waist and slowly walked towards Xiao Bao'er.

"What's wrong with me???" Yang Shiba pouted and scratched her head as she worked with Yang Nian to cultivate cyborgs.

"You really are stupid..." Yang Nian rolled her eyes at Yang Shiba, "You didn't even know how to seize such a good opportunity, now Nineteen is going to get it for free..."

"Hehe, we're all good sisters, what's the big deal about price?" Yang Shiba was quite open-minded and laughed.

"Hmph..." Yang Nian snorted sourly and continued to cultivate the cyborgs.

"So you're the young lady???" Yang Shijiu walked gracefully to Xiao Bao'er, bent down slightly, and said with a smile.

"I don't know you..." Xiao Bao'er looked timid, like a child caught stealing candy. In fact, she really was caught while peeking at someone's "special skill".

"You don't recognize me? Then look at my face, doesn't it look familiar?" Yang Shijiu said with a smile.

It is said that all the cyborgs use Yang Gui's gene sample, therefore, all the cyborgs look exactly the same.

"I don't know anyone else..." Xiao Bao'er had already noticed that all the pretty ladies here looked exactly the same.

"Uh..." Yang Shijiu paused, then forced a smile, "Well... I've seen you squatting here watching for ages, are you interested in the process of cultivating cyborgs???"

"Sister, I'll ask my dad to buy you a ticket, please don't kick me out..." Xiao Bao'er said pitifully.

"Huh???" Yang Shijiu was taken aback. "What do you mean by supplementary ticket???"

"Magic tricks???" Xiao Bao'er exclaimed excitedly, "Your magic tricks are amazing! I watched for a long time and still couldn't figure out how you made people appear..." There was a genuine admiration in Xiao Bao'er's tone.

"Transform..." Yang Shijiu blinked, "...do magic???"

"Sister, pretty sister..." Xiao Bao'er said with a fawning smile, "Don't worry, when my dad comes to find me, I'll definitely make him buy you a ticket. My dad is very rich..."

"Even if your dad is rich, we wouldn't dare take a single penny..." Yang Shijiu muttered to herself, her smile softening. "It's already dark, can you even see clearly now???"

"I can see clearly, I can see clearly, my night vision is very good..." Xiao Bao nodded repeatedly, thinking that this was just an excuse to get rid of her.

Yang Shijiu's smile widened, but there was a bitter undertone to it. These days, even flattery isn't easy. She couldn't help but say, "Why don't you go take a closer look?"

"Can I go closer to see it???" Xiao Bao'er's eyes lit up.

"Of course you can..." Yang Shijiu said with a smile.

"That's great, thank you, beautiful sister..." Xiao Bao'er was so happy she almost jumped up.

"Please don't call me sister, just call me Nineteen..." Yang Shijiu didn't dare let Xiaobao call her sister, so she quickly shook her head.

"Hehe, Sister Nineteen..." Xiao Bao'er said with a grin.

"Don't call me 'sister,' okay???" Yang Shijiu's face turned pale.

"Why???" Little Bao'er bit her finger, her little face full of confusion. "You're clearly older than me???" Then she suddenly realized, "Oh... I really can't call you 'sister,' I should call you 'auntie'..."

Yang Shijiu was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when she heard that Xiaobao'er no longer called her "sister," but then the little guy suddenly gave her a generational title, and her face turned deathly pale with fright.

"Bao'er, who is your auntie???" Wei Qingqing and Aunt Liu walked over together at some point, and Wei Qingqing's expression was a little unpleasant.
