Chapter 44: Water Opening In my previous life in Japan, a morning like this would start with the sound of fireworks. Unfortunately, there are no fireworks makers here in Toriholi Village, so it wasn't a grand opening. But precisely because it's simple, the sight of everyone in the village rejoicing as one is more deeply moving than anything in Japan. "Hey, Toma, good morning." "Tom, good morning. You're up early today." "Of course. I can't be sleeping in on a day like this." A carpenter's…-

Chapter 44: Seeing Lin Xi Again He followed the maid to the dining hall, learning on the way about his "dad's" identity here. Unexpectedly, his "dad", who only had an elementary school education in that world, had become a county magistrate here. No wonder the original owner had been able to take in three concubines. "Pretty capable," he praised his "dad" in his heart. Then, in the next moment, he reached the door of the dining hall, and the scene inside shocked him. "Lin Xi?" He almost cried out in…-

Chapter 43: Inspection 2 The next morning began with an inspection of the tunnel. "The tunnel is mostly finished with its interior wall construction, although in some parts the concrete hasn't fully hardened yet, so we can't remove the wooden framework. In another month or so, the concrete will be completely hardened, and we'll be able to run water through it," I explained. The tunnel was a circular shape with a diameter of 2 meters, reinforced with bricks and concrete. It was created by…

Chapter 43: Mu Chuang is Alive Again Chapter 43: Mu Chuang is Alive Again When he opened his eyes again, he saw a bed with embroidered curtains hanging around it. Two women with their hair in buns and wearing long skirts stood by the bed, figures only seen in historical dramas. The room's furnishings were also antique, with carved windows and wooden walls. Only the sunlight streaming in through the window made him realize that he wasn't dreaming. "Young master is awake, quickly go tell the master." The…

Chapter 42: Inspection 1 Krim and the others seemed busy getting married and setting up their new life. We went to celebrate with them, partly to tease them, but all we got was a heavy dose of their lovey-dovey atmosphere. Needless to say, we made a hasty retreat. "I didn't know Salomé had a child," someone said. "She must have gone through a lot in the capital," another replied. Such conversations were happening around us. Salomé's parents were also there, and the village welcomed the new…

Chapter 42: Mu Chuang Also Died An hour later, Lin Xi was finally pulled out of the water. His shoes had been washed away, leaving only his clothes intact. His small face, soaked in water, had turned pale, but his eyes were closed, and his expression was serene, looking as if he were asleep at first glance. The medical team rushed over immediately, but after a thorough examination, they could only shake their heads and give up. Mu Chuang was beyond tears at this point, his entire being numb. Fu…

## Chapter 41: Salomé's Confession Krim wanted to know everything about Salomé. Salomé also didn't want to keep any secrets. Her life in the capital, her family, her upbringing. However, if she talked about those things, she wouldn't be able to keep her child a secret. "Sir, I am a woman who left her child behind in the capital." Salomé agonized and hesitated, but in the end, she decided to tell everything. Krim was surprised as he watched the woman who was sobbing and confessing her…

Chapter 41: Qi Qi is Dead Chapter 41: Qi Qi is Dead Although the other person spoke subtly, Lin Xi wasn't stupid and understood immediately.

Because the Mu family was celebrating a happy event today, the village was bustling with people coming and going. As a result, he heard many conversations about him in a short period. The familiar feeling of being ostracized at the…

Salomé came to Toriholi Village intending to barge into the home of the man who had abandoned her. It was partly out of desperation, but also for the sake of her adorable child. Around the capital, the potato crop failure cast a shadow, and the economy was poor. Salomé, having given birth and now able to work, couldn't find a good job. It wasn't that she would immediately starve, but considering her child's future, having money was better. At that time, there was a job opening in the distant…

Chapter 40: Mu Chuang Gets Married Chapter 40: Mu Chuang Gets Married Mu Chuang was surprised to hear this. "Why would anyone beat him, and so badly? Is he stupid?" Despite his annoyance, he still felt indignant for Lin Xi's father. "I heard he lost at cards and refused to pay, so they beat him," Lin Xi said, wishing he could disappear into the ground. He felt ashamed and even resentful of his father's behavior. Mu Chuang rolled his eyes and sighed helplessly. "Alright, we'll go back tomorrow then.…
