Chapter 484 - I Do Not Need Cowards

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. In Xiandong Village, in the early morning, people were seen preparing for the festival. Chuntao hung the calamus and wormwood at the entrance door to their house to ward off the evil. Huo Jin was weaving a bamboo hat for him when Chuntao told him that she would do that.

"I love weaving hats, Sister Chun. It used to be my source of income," he proudly mentioned. "I think I will start weaving hats again."

"I thought the same. The head of the family killed his master, so his entire family is forced to die by not having food and water," asserted Huo Jin and sighed.

"But, brother, if you give them
