“Understood.” Qiao Zhaodi grasped her meaning and quickly nodded.

“Then you two can work here.” Qiao Xiaoinai pointed to the stools under the tree.

This would also give her an opportunity to learn some needlework skills.

The original host was good at cooking but mediocre at needlework. Since her arrival, due to her lack of experience, she could not even be described as mediocre.

She needed to learn.

She wanted to make a set of clothes for Tong Sanlang.

Since this young lad said that he was imbued with her sweetness from head to toe, she would provide him with a complete outfit from head to toe.

This was also a common method for ancient maidens to express their feelings, and she thought to adapt to the local customs as well.

So, when Qiao Changshun got up, he saw three young women and a child sitting under a tree doing needlework.

Qiao Changshun looked at the sisters Qiao Zhaodi and Qiao Yindi in surprise.

He had not seen these two sisters before, and now that he had met them, he only felt one thing: embarrassment.

He couldn’t be as casual and at ease as Qiao Xiaoinai was.

Coughing softly, he limped over and said, “Zhaodi and Yindi, are you two sisters used to living at the Tong’s house?”

“Yes, we are.” On seeing Qiao Changshun, Qiao Zhaodi quickly stood up and offered her stool to him.

“You sit, you sit.” Qiao Xiaoinai glanced at Qiao Dami, who immediately brought over another stool.

Qiao Changshun sat down, rubbing his hands, and said, “You two, live here with peace of mind. Your sister Mai is rather straightforward and impulsive, but as long as you two are diligent and obedient, she won’t lose her temper.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaoinai rolled her eyes, “Dad, my temper is not hot, it’s just that you are too indecisive.”

“Yes, not at all,” Qiao Changshun chuckled, then, turning to look at the two sisters, Qiao Zhaodi and Qiao Yindi, he continued to offer words of comfort.

These were things that Qiao Xiaoinai had never said because she felt more pity than affection for the two sisters.

She talked about benefits and harm, not about feelings.

Qiao Changshun was different. He was a man who valued family ties. Once he started talking, he would go on for half an hour.

Qiao Xiaoinai went into the kitchen and brought him a bowl of Spiritual Spring water, “Dad, don’t worry. These cousins of mine know right from wrong. Look at their hands. Although they’re not as rough as yours, they’ve already torn the silk cloth.”

“Just by looking at their hands you can tell what kind of life they’ve led before. Since coming to our house, their lives have improved a great deal.”

“They know that.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhaodi and Qiao Yindi involuntarily withdrew their hands, covered in calluses from their constant work both inside and outside the house. It was more abnormal if their hands were delicate under these conditions.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Changshun’s gaze lingered on the girls’ hands, and he was reminded of Zhuang Liihe.

He had never paid attention to these details in the past, and now he found it hard to remember what her hands looked like.

Stunned for a moment, he suppressed the sourness in his heart and nodded, “In future, you two just need to do some housework. After a year or two, when we find suitable matches, we’ll arrange marriages for both of you. Even though you two are now in a servant’s status, it won’t be difficult to change that.”

“Work hard, and we won’t treat you two sisters unfairly.”

Upon hearing this, the faces of the sisters Qiao Zhaodi and Qiao Yindi were filled with astonishment.

They could actually get married?

Qiao Xiaoinai said, “Of course you can get married; you two are my cousins. The reason we asked for silver from your family is because your father was being unreasonable. Ten thousand kilos of wheat, I was so distressed that I couldn’t sleep for several nights.”

Qiao Changshun sighed, nodding deeply in agreement.

Even thinking about it now still made his heart ache.

“You two don’t think too much, just work diligently. If a suitable person comes along, I will definitely not stand in your way and will even provide a dowry for you two so you can proudly get married.”
