"Second sister-in-law, you are too easy to talk to. If it were me, I would never let them drag me away so easily." Xia Jinxiu said, holding Xia Chen's arm.
"It's not that I'm easy to talk to, there's nothing I can do about it. Am I going to force her to sell her house and land?" Xia Chen smiled bitterly, "If that's the case, we'll be criticized and scolded."
"That certainly can't be left like this."
"We definitely can't just let it go like this!" Xia Chen said with a smile, "Now our family has a good reputation, and the people in the village know about it and are grateful to us. We can't ruin our reputation for such a small amount of money. If we do that, how can we expect people to continue to work for us?"
Xia Jinxiu thought about it and said, "You know what, sister-in-law, I have a new appreciation for you. You have a lot of reasons to talk about."
"Are you praising me?"
"Of course. I have to learn from you. When my restaurant opens, you have to tell me more about it." Xia Jinxiu said.
"I don't know how to do business."
"It's okay. I'm happy to listen to you. My mother will urge me to get married." Xia Jinxiu's relationship with Xia Chen is really good now, and she is willing to tell her everything.
Xia Chen's face changed slightly, and she naturally thought of what her little girl said about Xia Jinxiu. Her heart skipped a beat, "Our mother is doing this for your own good. Seeing you find a good family, she will feel relieved."
"I know, but I really haven't thought about it. Right now, I think making money is the most important thing. Look how good you are now. You have your own abilities and can make money. No one dares to look down on you. My second brother is willing to help you. He is so ambitious. Ordinary people can't let him do that."
Xia Chen smiled and said, "Your second brother is busy with the orchard now, and he is doing well. I think it will be very good in two years."
"Of course, my second brother is..."
"What is it?" asked Xia Chen.
"But for those who have studied, it must be different."
She originally wanted to talk about someone who could become a high-ranking official, but then she thought, let's not talk about it. It's good for the second brother to be like this, at least he won't cause the family to be broken up.
Xia Zhiliao was in the backyard and saw Ling He releasing a pigeon. If she had a slingshot in her hand... she would have shot the pigeon down and roasted it.
"Uncle Ling, there's a letter sent by carrier pigeon!" Xia Zhiliao walked over with a smile.
Ling He chuckled, feeling a little guilty. If he said it out loud, he would be laughed at to death. He was a master, but he was afraid of a little kid.
“No…no!”
"Nothing, I saw it all clearly." Xia Zhiliao rolled his eyes.
"Did you say something bad about me?"
"No... really not!" Ling He said solemnly. He was just asking, the little girl was short of money, didn't he care?
Why is there no movement yet?
"Uncle Ling, do you think roasted pigeon tastes good?"
Ling He was about to nod, but he quickly realized it and stopped in time, "Zhi Le, I really didn't say anything bad about you."
"That's not a good thing about me, is it?"
"I really praised you."
Xia Zhiliao stared into his eyes and didn't dodge this time. It seemed that it was true.
"Uncle Ling, do you still remember that I can poison you?"
Ling He swallowed his saliva, "What...what do you mean? Zhiliao, I'm good to you, right? What happened before was all a misunderstanding. It's been so long, didn't you talk it out with my master?"
Xia Zhiliao curled her lips, "Let's just say that what happened before was a misunderstanding and can be written off, but Uncle Ling is monitoring me and telling others everything I do, which makes me very uncomfortable. I'm uncomfortable, so I want to make some medicine, but I can't find anyone to try it on?"
Ling He shuddered, "Zhi Liao, my master is also worried about you. His identity... is quite special. He left me here because he was afraid that someone would follow the clues and find you. If anything happens, there will be no one to protect you."
Xia Zhiliao was slightly stunned.
"Really, I swear, my master seemed to want me to teach your brothers martial arts, but in fact he wanted to protect you. There are many people who want to hurt him, and he doesn't want you to be implicated. If something happens, he also asked me to protect you."
Xia Zhiliao couldn't describe the feeling in her heart when she heard this. Originally, she just wanted to scare Ling He, but she didn't expect that he would know all this.
"Let me put it this way. I have followed my master since he was four years old and have never left him. He trusts me the most. He sent me to you regardless of his own safety. Zhi, my master really wants to protect you."
Ling He explained anxiously, afraid that the little girl would not believe him.
Xia Zhiliao was very clear that Ling He was the person Wen Heng trusted the most. In the end, Ling He died for Wen Heng, but that was a story for later. His death was tragic.
"Then...then you can't tell him everything about me."
"I just told him that you've been practicing calligraphy recently." Ling He said: "And..."
"What else?" Xia Zhiliao asked. Her intuition told her that what came next was more important.
"And... aren't you short of money?"
Xia Zhiliao suddenly realized, "Don't mention the money anymore, I found the money."
This discovery made Ling He a little confused. Where should he find it?
That's not a small amount of money.
"Anyway, you can't tell him everything I do here, or I'll feel like you're sent by him to spy on me."
Ling He smiled and nodded, "Um... Zhiliao, don't you want to ask about my master's recent situation?"
"No, he must be fine."
"You are wrong, he is not good!" Ling He sighed.
"How is that possible?" Xia Zhiliao frowned. This was different from what she thought. "Didn't he help his grandmother cure her diabetes?"
"Yes, his grandmother treated him well, but he...he had many brothers, and his father didn't treat him very well, which led to him being ostracized by his brothers, and because of you..."
"Me? What's wrong with me?"
"Because of the young lady from the Lu family, you still remember her, right?"
"Lu Seyan?" Xia Zhiliao took a deep breath.
Lu Seyan had seen herself and Wen Heng together, so she must have known about their relationship. The Crown Prince and the Eighth Prince were both very kind to Lu Seyan. Although the Eighth Prince was also dormant, the protagonist was also described as a sinister person in the novel.
If someone bullies the person he loves most, he will definitely take action.
The Crown Prince is in the open, while the Eighth Prince is in the dark. If you think about it carefully, Wen Heng's situation really cannot be easy.
She thought she had helped him change the plot in subtle ways, but judging from the current situation, it was not enough.
"The eldest master is quite friendly with Miss Lu. Now the eldest master is targeting my master and causing trouble for him from time to time, causing my master to be punished several times."
"Not just him!"
"Ah? Who else? You...how did you know? Did my master tell you?"
Xia Zhiliao shook his head. He couldn't admit it at this moment, otherwise it would be exposed when the master and servant met. "I am saying that the people who come here are not scary. What is scary is the unexpected people."
