After taking care of Uncle Zhang's family matter, Chen Ping'an's life returned to its usual rhythm.
On duty, off duty, home for his meals.
After becoming a Constable, his family's standard of living rose significantly. Chen Ping'an also bought many books for Chen Erya, letting the little girl study at her own pace. The little girl was very interested, and Chen Ping'an planned to send her to a proper school next spring.
A school!
For the people of Nanquan Lane, that was a rare place indeed. Learning to read and write was not something an ordinary family in this era could afford.
Ever since achieving Perfection in the Public Door Thirteen Blades, Chen Ping'an had dedicated all his martial arts practice to the Thirteen Grand Protectors' Horizontal Training. He would practice once before going on duty, sneak in two more sessions when he had free time, and practice twice more after returning home in the evening.
