Chi Xingyue thought, we've only just arrived, and they're already scared like this.
He smiled and shook his head: "As long as the conditions in our village are good, believe it or not, people from all over the country will rush to ask for marriage!
Don't worry, it's okay. It's just a few matchmakers. At worst, we can find a marriage in our village."
The aunts thought so and agreed. They knew their own village well and felt at ease when marrying off their daughters.
Besides, they had already earned several hundred coins in just a few days. Given time, Qingshan Village would surely become a popular destination for the surrounding villages.
Chi Xingyue chatted happily with the aunts, waited for Ling Jiheng to come over, distributed some crispy candies, and then went back.
Then he talked to his family in high spirits and went to the backyard to take a look at the lambs and fawns.
That’s right, during the time Chi Xingyue was away, the pregnant ewe gave birth to a lamb.
Three lambs were born in succession, and the lambs grew healthily under the careful care of Jinbao and others.
Because they ate well, the ewes produced plenty of milk. Chi Xingyue filled a clay pot with milk, went home, and made a pot of milk tea, giving some to her grandmother and mother-in-law.
As for herself, well, there's a cow in the space, and she hasn't milked it in a long time. Can't she drink it openly, or can't she secretly make tea?
The old lady sipped the goat milk tea with a unique flavor, smiling happily. She even came close to the old man and envied him.
In the evening, in order to welcome the two, the Ling family lit a bonfire in Rongsiyuan, and a group of people ate barbecue and hot pot around the bonfire.
The hot pot ingredients were cooked by Ling Jiheng, using the newly grown chili peppers in their house.
The fragrant smell came to their minds, and the Ling family's eyes lit up. They had found a way to make money again.
However, they don't have many peppers at home, just enough for their own consumption. Next year, they will plant some in the fields and sell them on a larger scale.
The mutton for hot pot in the evening was the ram raised by Ling Yi and his group, and the vegetables were the newly grown seedlings from each household.
The Ling family once again marveled at Chi Xingyue's intelligence. If it weren't for her, how could they have eaten winter mushrooms, spinach, lettuce, and garland chrysanthemums?
Add radish, cabbage, fungus and dried shrimp, wow, this hotpot is really rich!
The group of people ate with their mouths full of oil, and their laughter could be heard for miles.
After three rounds of drinks, Shu Muyun tugged at Ling Weicheng's sleeve and glanced at Ling Jiheng with his big eyes several times.
Ling Weicheng was a little panicked: "Wife, do you really want to do this? Otherwise, let's wait a little longer?"
"What the hell are you waiting for? It's been so long! You know Heng'er's condition, what if he...
Tsk, why am I telling you so much? Just listen to me!"
Ling Weicheng shrank back, but still stood up and did his bad thing under the pressure of Shu Muyun.
Doctor Cheng in the corner took in everything, his mustache twitching.
He glanced at Ling Jiheng with interest, and drank happily with Hongyu, keeping his achievements and fame hidden.
Chi Xingyue didn't know that danger was coming and was happily chewing on the charcoal-grilled yam.
A moment later, Ling Weicheng came over and handed Ling Jiheng a glass of wine. Chi Xingyue didn't doubt anything and just watched Ling Jiheng drink it in big gulps.
Then she took the skewers of meat that Erzhu had grilled and started eating them. Baozhu made her some sour plum soup, and Chi Xingyue drank a big gulp to relieve the greasiness.
Seeing her plan succeed, Shu Muyun smiled triumphantly at Ling Weicheng. Ge Jinglan, not understanding what was going on, leaned over and whispered something in her ear.
As the night deepened, the Ling family yawned tiredly and went back to their rooms to rest.
Chi Xingyue smelled of hot pot. He said hello to Ling Jiheng and entered the space.
I went to the bathroom, took a shower, brushed my teeth, did some facial care, and digested my food before slowly coming out.
Ling Jiheng came over with a face full of moisture, and his cheeks and neck were all red.
Chi Xingyue simply thought the water was too hot and had scalded him. Without asking any questions, she sat by the kang and helped him dry his hair.
Under the dim oil lamp, Ling Jiheng's long hair was as silky as satin. Chi Xingyue felt that if this happened in the future, he would be able to endorse shampoo.
Ling Jiheng's eyes were deep. He suppressed his Adam's apple, feeling the warmth of her fingertips. He wanted to say something, but his ears moved.
"Wife, this isn't a good idea. Heng'er will find out soon!"
"Can you please keep your voice down? If we get caught, I'll make you pay!"
Ling Jiheng thought about his own situation and immediately understood what had happened.
At this moment, he was both ashamed and annoyed. Who could have imagined that he would be plotted against by his own parents in his own home!
He turned his head and glanced at Chi Xingyue. Seeing that she was unaware, he felt embarrassed.
Chi Xingyue put the cotton cloth aside: "It's almost done, we can go to sleep in a while."
Ling Jiheng nodded, stood up and went to the desk to pick up a book to read.
Chi Xingyue glanced at it curiously but said nothing.
I leaned on the kang to knit a scarf, but found that the kang was a little too hot tonight.
Just when I was about to call Erzhu to add more firewood, I heard a creaking sound outside.
Chi Xingyue subconsciously looked towards the window, but because the curtains blocked the view, he couldn't see anything.
The moon had not risen yet. Chi Xingyue lifted the curtain and took a look. It was pitch black and she couldn't help but frown.
Seeing this, Ling Jiheng hurried over, thinking that it was so cold and the two little mice outside should go back to rest.
Unexpectedly, the little mouse was very brave and refused to give up until it had eaten the oil. It hid under the window and did not move.
And don't let Baozhu and Erzhu get close.
Erzhu, who was forced to stand at the door of the wing room, stamped his feet in anxiety, and Baozhu, who had never seen the world, shed tears.
Chi Xingyue tilted her head and glanced at Ling Jiheng, feeling that he was very different today.
The words "Go to sleep" were spoken in a magnetic and hoarse voice.
Chi Xingyue lay down in bed, but Ling Jiheng didn't move. She ignored him and closed her eyes, ready to sleep.
Ling Jiheng glanced at her and blew out the oil lamp. For the first time, he lay beside her without leaning over, and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Chi Xingyue didn't want to care, but the noise beside her kept her awake. She raised her hand and poked Ling Jiheng: "What's wrong with you?"
Ling Jiheng didn't want to pay any attention to her, but he didn't know where his father got the medicine, but it was so effective. He felt like he couldn't hold on any longer.
I had wanted to wait until Chi Xingyue fell asleep before going to find Doctor Cheng, but now, there were two mice guarding outside, and a little fairy was lying beside him.
Ling Jiheng lifted the quilt and fell on Chi Xingyue, scaring her so much that she almost screamed.
Ling Jiheng covered her mouth, and she only groaned. Her eyes widened, not understanding what he was doing.
"Wife..." Ling Jiheng murmured in her ear.
Chi Xingyue was afraid of alarming others, so she lowered her voice and asked, "Why are you coming down here? What are you doing?"
Ling Jiheng nuzzled her neck and said, "Dad is so mean. He put something in my wine."
Chi Xingyue raised her hand and touched Ling Jiheng's forehead. She couldn't believe that her father-in-law would do such a tasteless thing.
