He sighed, hugged the person in his arms, and whispered softly, "When will you trust me completely?"
Although he really wanted to ask Chi Xingyue, he also knew that such a big secret was a kind of pressure in itself, so there was no need to make things difficult for him.
I just hope that one day, she can accept herself from the inside out and let me become her strongest support.
Ling Jiheng leaned on the kangqin, stroking Chi Xingyue's long hair while reading a book.
He had no idea that the fairies in the space were already busy preparing a feast.
Apple pie, egg tart, walnut brioche...
Even though he used a lot of ingredients available in the kitchen, Chi Xingyue was still very busy.
She really wanted to call someone in to help her, but her logic prevented her from easily exposing the entire space to Ling Jiheng.
Even if he has guessed the truth, as long as he doesn't admit it, it doesn't exist.
People's hearts are fickle. Before she has an absolute way to save her life, she will not use a treasure with such a large space to seduce him!
Chi Xingyue collected his thoughts and continued to work. He placed the semi-finished product in the oven, set the timer, and went to the Nanshan Village Police Station to check on the progress of the upgrade.
Well, how should I put it, there isn't much change on the outside, but the progress bar in the Household Registration Department has soared to 75%.
Chi Xingyue raised an eyebrow, not knowing how huge the data was that would take several months to load.
I can't help but feel a little excited.
After taking a look in the detention room, he found that except for the one who was beaten to death by Ling Jiheng earlier, the rest were still alive.
My body is a little thin, as if my consciousness has been unable to wake up during this period, and I have subconsciously consumed the fat stored in my body.
Seeing their rosy faces, Chi Xingyue knew that there was no big problem, so he stepped forward and kicked them a few times.
What should I do with them? Kill them directly or stockpile them and wait until we get to the provincial capital to see how the situation develops?
Chi Xingyue shook his head and refused to think about such a complicated question.
He caught a glimpse of the bandit who had been dead for some time, clicked his tongue twice, and went back to the village committee building. He found a broken backpack and put it on the bandit's head to pretend he didn't see it.
I found a bathroom to wash my hands, and after cleaning myself, I returned to the large kitchen. It wasn't long before the dessert was baked.
Chi Xingyue took out the apple pie, egg tart, and walnut Brios, put them on a plate, glanced at the time, and slipped out of the space.
Then she saw Ling Jiheng rubbing against her, almost like a puppy.
"What are you doing!" Chi Xingyue raised her hand and pushed Ling Jiheng's face away, jumping out of his arms.
Ling Jiheng gave her a cold look, looking rather aggrieved. But he just kept silent.
Chi Xingyue smiled, feeling a little embarrassed. She got off the kang, closed the door, took out a plate of cakes from the space, and fed them to the puppy.
The two of them shared a plate and ate a piece of cake together. Ling Jiheng was visibly happy without any need for coaxing, and the whole room was filled with pink bubbles.
As the sky gradually darkened, Chi Xingyue called Baozhu to the side room to get some apples and started making apple pie in the ear room.
He didn't need Baozhu's help. He just switched things up. Soon, he gave some to other families and Ling Yi and the others.
The whole Ling family was filled with laughter and praised Chi Xingyue highly.
Song Lizheng, who had just returned home to change his clothes and soak his feet, came over and saw this scene and was extremely envious.
He stuffed the chicken in his hand to Ling San, thanking him for coming to pick him up.
Ling San refused to take it, saying, "Uncle, your daughter-in-law is still in confinement after childbirth. This chicken is for her to nourish her body!"
Song Lizheng laughed, not caring at all: "We made some money a while ago, and the boss bought a female goat for his wife. We don't need it at home, so just keep it!"
Ling San chuckled and took the big rooster that was still flapping its wings.
After welcoming Song Lizheng to Qingfengyuan, he happily went back to the backyard to show off.
When Chi Xingyue saw that there were guests coming, she cut a piece of apple pie for Song Lizheng.
Then she sat next to them and quietly "embroidered", but her ears were perked up, wanting to listen to what the two were talking about.
"Ji Heng, look, I've convinced the villagers of Xiahe Village and promised them I'll deliver the fungus strains in three days."
After saying this, he rubbed his fingers together, feeling somewhat ashamed. “I wonder if the Ling family can offer some help. I can use part of Xiahe Village’s earnings to buy fungus strains!”
Ling Jiheng nodded. "Of course, I'm the one who spearheaded this business, so I'll definitely help if I can. But I need the village head to prepare the flower beds and substrate in advance."
Song Lizheng breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a smile, "Don't worry, I asked Cao Dashan and his group to prepare it before we left. In three days, we'll get as much as we can and send it to Xiahe Village in batches.
It's Dahe Village, and I think it's a bit more difficult to deal with. The people who live there used to be officials, so they probably wouldn't look down on these little things."
Ling Jiheng thought of Zhou Chengyu and Cui Wan'er's relationship and smiled, "I heard that the former Minister of Revenue, Cui Jingzhong, is a loyal and honest person. The village head uncle can start with him."
Song Lizheng glanced at Ling Jiheng suspiciously, not understanding what he was thinking for a moment.
On second thought, the Ling family was confiscated and exiled because of the Cui family's involvement. Is this... mutual care between relatives?
Song Lizheng nodded, drank a cup of hot tea, said goodbye and went home.
Ling Jiheng approached Chi Xingyue and said coquettishly, "Wife, did you hear that? Can you help me?"
Chi Xingyue chuckled and poked Ling Jiheng's nose: "It depends on your performance!"
Ling Jiheng immediately stretched his head forward, wanting to kiss her, but Chi Xingyue slapped him away: "Massage!"
"Ah?" Ling Jiheng felt a little regretful, but still gently rubbed Chi Xingyue's shoulders.
The little girl hummed and moaned, and soon fell asleep.
Ling Jiheng helped her take off her coat, removed the pearl flowers, and covered her with a quilt.
He placed a gentle kiss on her forehead and went to the ear room to wash up.
As Erzhu added water, he whispered in his ear, "Master, what's the name of the cake Madam made? It tastes so special!"
Ling Jiheng raised his eyebrows: "Apple pie, if you like, let Baozhu make it for you, don't tire my wife!"
Erzhu pouted, complaining a bit, "Baozhu is very busy every day, how can I bother her!"
Ling Jiheng thought about it and it made sense. Baozhu was almost entirely responsible for the cleaning of the east and west rooms. Besides that, she also had to do laundry and cook, which was quite hard work.
"Ask tomorrow if Baozhu needs a companion." Ling Jiheng is not short of money, but he doesn't want too many outsiders in his house, as he feels uneasy about the money.
Erzhu froze when he heard this, and shook his head, saying, "I asked before, and Baozhu said she likes this kind of life. She's worried that the Second Young Master's wife will have other maids and won't like her."
Ling Jiheng chuckled: "In that case, you should help out more often. Take a break when you're tired, and take Baozhu for a stroll in the county town."
Erzhu was thrilled to receive the approval. He hurriedly thanked Ling Jiheng, "Master, you are so kind!"
Ling Jiheng raised his eyebrows and thought something was wrong. When did Erzhu start speaking for others like this?
