After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

Bai Qingyun couldn't help but chuckle and touched Xiao Yan's delicate face lovingly.

"That's right, it was indeed me who asked you to learn martial arts."

Perhaps because she was an optimistic person, Xiao Yan also smiled while eating the thousand-layer cake and looking at Bai Qingyun.

After swallowing the dessert in her mouth, Bai Qingyun’s skirt was finally “liberated”.

Xiao Yan picked up the cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp, drinking like a woman of the world.

Bai Qingyun was ashamed in his heart without leaving a trace: Is this the invisible influence of Madam Su?

When the sweet taste in Xiao Yan's mouth was diluted by the tea, the little girl continued to ask: "Then... why did Sister Yun let us learn martial arts?"

Bai Qingyun looked at Xiao Yan in deep thought for a while. When he was about to answer, he saw Xiao Yan giggling. Then he realized that he was being held by the girl.

Bai Qingyun laughed helplessly: "Isn't this what Madam Su asked you?"

Xiao Yan's smile did not diminish: "Yes, Xiao Yan can't answer, so I can only ask Sister Yun!"

This matter-of-fact look on her face made Bai Qingyun give a big thumbs up to Madam Su in his heart.

As expected, if you want to be reborn, you must be ruthless and eliminate the cancer.

Bai Qingyun imitated Su Niangzi's lazy manner and pretended to ask casually: "Xiao Yan, how do you think women in this world should survive?"

In Xiaoyan's understanding, this question seems to be far different from the previous topic.

Xiao Yan was a little surprised, but faced with Bai Qingyun's question, he still answered seriously: "Well... Mom said..."

But as soon as he said it, he realized it was inappropriate, so he quickly changed his words and said, "My mother in Lijia Village said that when I grow up, she would find a trustworthy family to marry me off, preferably one that's close to her home."

Compared to the avoidance reactions in the past, at least Xiao Yan can now recall things normally.

Bai Qingyun did not intend to correct Xiao Yan's awkward address. He just patted the girl on the back and asked softly, "What about after you get married?"

Two little girls, who haven't even reached marriage age yet, are discussing marriage. It seems so inappropriate no matter how you look at it.

Xiao Yan just felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell where it was, so he could only continue to answer seriously.

"After getting married, you should also take care of your husband and children!"

Bai Qingyun raised an eyebrow and answered without surprise: "What should we do if the man stands in the world?"

This time Xiao Yan's answer was much faster than last time.

"Sister Yun, men can enter the officialdom through the imperial examination. My eldest brother often says that he will take the military imperial examination in the future!"

Then he thought about it carefully and felt that the imperial examination was not the only answer, so he added.

"Well... Actually, like Daddy Bai, although he is busy every day, it is also great to be able to stay with Grandpa and Grandma and live with Bai Niang."

The family is together, the family is harmonious, there is no need to separate, no need to worry about food and clothing, and constantly working hard for a better life. There is no better life than this.

"In fact, it's also the best to teach martial arts every day like you do."

"When the teacher teaches us every day, even though he gets angry sometimes because we don't have the right strength or posture, he is also happy when we do well."

"But every day is enjoyable. Xiaoyan also wants to do what he wants to do in the future."

I don’t know if it’s because he has experienced such great changes, but Xiaoyan’s thinking is much more mature than other people of the same age in the village.

They won't look at problems from the same perspective as a child.

Bai Qingyun couldn't control everyone's growth trajectory, so he asked Xiao Yan with longing: "Then... is there anything you want to do?"

Unlike Bai Qingyun's expectations, Xiao Yan did not look forward to the future. Instead, she looked up at Bai Qingyun's eyes and asked, "Sister Yun, will women... also take part in the imperial examinations in the future?"

"Sister Yun doesn't know about such a big thing."

Bai Qingyun was not surprised, but compared to his own plan, he was more uncertain about how much he could achieve in the future.

"But...if that day really comes, would you like to take the civil or military imperial examination?"

"The military imperial examination! When I was learning calligraphy with my brothers, only Sister Shu'er and Sister Xiyue were serious about it. Sometimes I almost fell asleep just looking at those big characters!"

Seeing that Bai Qingyun was not angry, Xiao Yan became bolder: "But the boxing manual and sword manual that the teacher showed us are different. Sometimes when I am so engrossed in reading them, I even feel like the little people above are dancing with swords in front of me!"

Bai Qingyun controlled the release of these secret books, but passed them on to Bai Yi and others without reservation.

In their hearts, Bai Qingyun no longer just regarded them as ordinary family members, and he had no reservations towards the children of the Bai family.

There weren't many children in the Bai family who practiced martial arts, so when they passed it to each other, it didn't have any impact.

Xiao Yan's comprehension of martial arts was also gained through Bai Yi's observation of these subtle details.

Bai Qingyun encouraged him and said, "Okay! Although I don't know if there will be a female imperial examination in the future, it's better to learn now than to learn all at once later."

"Yeah, my second brother said that Sister Yun is... farsighted!"

Recalling these adjectives, Xiao Yan frowned slightly, fearing that a lot of brain cells had died.

Bai Qingyun replied in the same way: "Then you must... keep your feet on the ground!"

"Yeah!" The slightly messy bun swayed up and down as Xiao Yan nodded in response.

"Okay, it's almost time for dinner, go to the stables in the back and call Grandpa and Butler Xie!"

Bai Qingyun did not forget to pay attention to the movements in the room at all times, nor did he forget the main purpose of this trip.

Before leaving, Xiao Yan whispered in Bai Qingyun's ear: "I want to learn martial arts and protect Sister Yun in the future!"

After saying that, he ran quickly towards the stable.

The little girl did not forget that her master was in the room.

They have also more or less heard that people with great martial arts skills also have better hearing than ordinary people.

Bai Qingyun shook his head in amusement and stood up. Although he knew the truth, Xiao Yan still didn't know that this "extraordinary" ability could not be overcome by just whispering in the ear!

Although not everyone has the incredible ability that Bai Qingyun has cultivated, considering Su Niangzi's ability to pierce gold and silver with needles, this ability must be good.

But... being able to hear is not necessarily a bad thing!

Bai Qingyun held back his laughter, pushed open Su Niangzi's door, and said with pretended regret: "Oh, you heard it! Even though the little girl was beaten, she still 'didn't change her original intention'!"

She raised her eyebrows in no surprise. She didn't know when the locked door was unlocked by her.

The layout of Su Niangzi's room is similar to that of Bai Qingyun's room, except that the space is much smaller and Su Niangzi doesn't need a desk.

The basic living facilities only included beds, dressing areas and bathing areas. Many of the furniture were replaced with the same furniture as Bai Qingyun at Su Niangzi's request.
