My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

Qin Ruolan saw Shiyi's movements from the corner of her eye, reached out and grabbed the handkerchief, and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

These commotions were heard by the female relatives of the Qin and Chu families, and everyone came out of the house to see what happened.

When the female members of the Chu family saw her, they looked like they were eating melons. They were glad that Chu Yi and her were not paired together in the first place.

When Mrs. Qin saw the seemingly intimate couple, she stomped her walking stick angrily, "What a shame! Shanshan, go and call her back!"

Qin Ruoshan agreed, walked out of the fence and went to Qin Ruolan, took her arm and said, "Sister, let's go back."

Qin Ruolan gradually stopped speaking, raised her head and said to each other: "I relied on the warmth you gave me candies to survive the heartache, so why would I want you to be punished? Don't go to my elder brother. If he finds out, I will never spare you."

Shiyi immediately defended his master: "It is my subordinate who violated the rules and deserves to be punished."

"You are right! In short, you are not allowed to find my brother!"

Seeing Shi nodded, Qin Ruolan walked back with Qin Ruoshan.

Shiyi looked at her back, but after all, he still didn't go to find his master.

If his master held him to account, he would never dare to escape. But now the master has obviously exposed it, and if he continues to hold on to it, he is simply seeking his own death.

Rather than accepting his own punishment and being reinvented, dying in the torture chamber or on the training ground, he wanted to do his best for his master and maximize his own value in order to repay his master's kindness.

On the other side, Qin Ruolan quietly hid Supa and entered the lobby of the thatched house where the old lady lived.

"Your Majesty!"

The old lady sitting in the middle gave an order, and Qin Ruolan knelt down as instructed.

The old lady was furious and reprimanded loudly: "You are so brave, how dare you have an affair with a guard! You have disgraced the whole Qin family! According to the folk rules, it is enough to make you sink into a pig cage and sink into a river!"

As the daughter of the Qin family, Qin Ruolan's words and deeds represent more than just her.

The entire family's female relatives are both prosperous and devastated. As long as one person has bad moral character, all the girls will be implicated, making it difficult to get married. Even the married daughter of the Qin family was not immune to the disaster, and her situation was even worse.

The old lady always paid attention to the family's reputation, so how could she tolerate Qin Ruolan doing such an unethical thing.

However, the eldest grandson strictly prohibited lynching. She could not raise her walking stick to teach Qin Ruolan a lesson with her own hands, nor could she go beyond the eldest grandson to punish his guards.

After giving a harsh reprimand, Qin Ruolan was ordered to kneel down in the yard, and the remaining shadow guards Shiwu went to find Qin Mu to deal with, and asked Qin Ruoshan to report the status of the guards to her eldest grandson.

At that time, brothers Qin Junyi and Qin Mu happened to be staying together, watching Su Yunwan squatting in the open space, using wooden sticks to draw pictures and explain relevant construction techniques to the craftsman Ding Zhiming.

There is a saying: an expert looks at the door, and an outsider looks at the excitement. Ding Zhiming nodded frequently, quickly understood and asked several key questions.

After Su Yunwan answered them one by one, he asked everyone to work together and start construction.

First, dig the foundation trench and determine the construction scope.

Then, fix the plywood made of wood in the foundation groove, fill the plywood with moist loess, and use a rammer and ramming pestle to press hard until the soil in the plywood becomes a whole.

After the ramming is completed, remove the plywood and continue ramming the next set of walls.

This layering process is repeated until the preset wall height is reached, and the main prototype of the house is completed.

Then, apply a layer of mud on the inside and outside of the wall to make the wall smooth and flat.

Finally, the beams are put up, wooden sticks are set up, and straw, wheat straw, etc. are laid out layer by layer.

After the roof was capped, the adobe house was built.

Of course, throughout the entire construction process, doors, windows, chimneys, etc. will also be left open.

The people who worked were very cooperative and the various processes were completed very quickly.

Looking at the adobe house that had risen from the ground in a short period of time, everyone marveled and called it magical.

"It's done!" Qin Mu's eyes were filled with wonder.

Qin Junyi and Su Yunwan looked at each other and then looked at everyone involved in the construction: "You all know the various processes, right?"

"I know!" A loud voice broke through the sky.

Qin Junyi nodded: "Very good, I will allocate some more people, and you will lead the construction to continue. Try to let everyone master this construction method."

Then, he asked Wu Shaohan to mobilize most of the manpower, and transferred a few flexible soldiers from the previous team to do supervision work, strictly supervise the construction process, and ensure that the quality of the house passed the standard.

As for Ding Zhiming, Su Yunwan called him aside and told him how to make the fire pit.

After hearing the effect, he immediately understood that this was a rare craft. Su Yunwan was grateful for the free teaching and remembered every word she said.

When the conversation was over, Su Yunwan asked Qin Junyi, who was listening silently, to assign ten people to Ding Zhiming to be responsible for the kang work.

Because the bricks are needed to make the Kang, the homemade bricks have not yet been dried. Ding Zhiming first led his team members to the brick kiln to buy adobe bricks and other required materials for making the kang, and they would start making the kang again early tomorrow morning.

Only then did Qin Junyi have time to deal with Qin Ruolan and Shiyi.

Just when they were getting up from the house, Qin Ruoshan and Yingwei Shiwu came over looking for her.

"Brother, my sister had a few words with the guard Shiyi just now, and she was a little emotional. Grandma thought it was insulting to the family tradition, so she asked me to tell you."

After Qin Ruoshan finished speaking, Shi Wu said: "Master, the old lady asked the third young master to go back and deal with this matter."

"Brother, I want to see the completion of this house first." Qin Mu immediately expressed that he did not want to go back.

Qin Junyi was also focused on construction and had no time to take care of it. He only said: "Shiwu, go and bring them both here."

When Shiyi heard the old lady's harsh scolding, he stood in the courtyard and frowned.

When he saw Qin Ruolan being driven out of the thatched hut and forced to kneel, she immediately clenched her fists to suppress the surging emotions.

However, he no longer had any wrong thoughts about the eldest lady, but he could not watch her being punished for his own sake.

Just as he was about to ask his colleagues who were left behind to help move reinforcements, he heard that Shi Wu and Qin Ruoshan had been assigned to search for people.

He had no choice but to go back to the tent and think hard about how to get the eldest lady out.

Later, Shi Yi and Qin Ruolan were brought to Qin Junyi, but Qin Junyi waved his hand to let Shi Wu and Qin Ruoshan go back first, and then left them aside.

Gradually, the tension eased, and their attention was drawn to the construction.

Now seeing Qin Junyi looking over, he felt nervous again.

After leaving the construction site, Qin Junyi asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, what's going on."

Qin Ruolan lowered her head and bit her lower lip, trembling with fright.

She knew very well that in a strict sense, her behavior was really worthy of the crime of having an affair with a foreigner, and she was afraid that she would be subject to family law again.

That kind of pain and humiliation can only be experienced once and will be unforgettable for the rest of your life.
