Ning Yue changed the babies into one-piece clothes that Madam He had made for them previously.

This way, others would not be able to tell what was going on on the inside.

The two babies were washed clean and smiled at Ning Yue.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Ning Yue quickly packed her things, leaving only two basins of used shower water.

She opened the door and found Madam He standing there.

“Yueyue, I thought you didn’t eat much for dinner and brought some steamed buns over.” Madam He raised the plate with steamed buns on it.

“Mother, come in first.” Ning Yue pulled Madam He into the room.

Madam He was overjoyed to see her two washed grandchildren. She placed the plate on the table and picked up Dabao. “Grandma’s good grandson.”

Ning Yue ate a few mouthfuls of the steamed bun and went to the hall with Madam He.

At this moment, Ning Bai was gathered here with the villagers.

“Alright, the land has been divided. Also, leave some of the wolf meat we hunted tomorrow for the others in the village. We’ll sell the rest in town.”

“I’ll split the money from the sale to the various families and distribute it according to the number of people. Although the government has allocated money to us, we still have to pay for our own household expenses. The Imperial Court has given us benefits, so we can’t be greedy.”

“It’s still midsummer. By the time our house is built and we’ve settled down, it’ll be almost winter. Before that, we have to prepare for winter.”

After distributing the items, these people left. Seeing Ning Yue come over, Old Master Ning couldn’t help but ask her, “Yueyue, we’re about to build a house. What do you think?”

“Nothing much, Grandpa. We must build enough rooms for our family!” Ning Yue said.

Her brothers and sisters of her generation were all older and they had to consider their rooms. Now there were also her cousin and master.

Her younger cousin could still share a room with his younger brothers, but her master had to have a separate room and another book room. Since the government was paying for it, they had to plan it well.

After discussing with her family how many rooms to build, Ning Yue went to rest.

This night was the most peaceful day for everyone in the Ning Family Village.

At first light, everyone was up and busy. They had a lot to do today.

The land had been divided. They just had to write down whatever they needed and report it to the authorities. Soon, they would receive the items.

Ning Yue took the clothes she had changed out of yesterday to the river to wash them early in the morning. She used a few clay pots to store the detergent.

She squatted down and washed her clothes. Today, her uncle had been sent to the town by her grandfather to buy an old cow. No matter what, cows were a must-have in the entire family. It was a good helper for farming and whatnot.

Ning Yue returned to the village after washing her clothes. She heard the children’s laughter and her lips curled up slightly.

She glanced around. The environment was actually pretty good.

Suddenly, she saw a group of people in black. Actually, these clothes were not black. There were some patterns on the black clothes, but this group of people dressed the same way headed towards the east of the village.

Wasn’t the east forbidden?

Ning Yue frowned. Just as she was about to think, she realized that her pants seemed to have been hooked by something. She looked down and saw a snow-white ball of fluff.

She squatted down to check and realized that it was not just one ball, but two!

Two snow-white balls of fluff were biting the bottom of her pants and looking at her with an ‘ aggrieved’ expression.

Yes, that was right. They were aggrieved.

These two little things actually had human-like expressions on their faces. Ning Yue immediately felt that she had encountered a treasure.

The two balls were newborn puppies. They were cute, but they looked smarter than newborn puppies.

Whatever. She would take it home first.

Ning Yue gently picked up the two little puppies and brought them back to her room.

The two little fellows were excited to see the two puppies. They each carried one and looked at Ning Yue.

Ning Yue was speechless. She understood what these two children wanted to say again.

“You two like them a lot?” She had wanted to bring them home, but she hadn’t expected the children to like them so much.

The two children hugged the puppies and refused to let go.

“Fine. If you like them, then let’s keep them.” The two puppies weren’t lethal. She closed her eyes and scanned the space.
