Racing against time to transplant the rice seedlings is a technical work. When it turned dark, ninety mu of land was finally finished, the whole family got so worn out. At dinner, everyone went back to their own room to rest after randomly grabbing some food. The second day, the second son of Wang family was going home, to bring the rest of the seedlings back to plant. Ling Jingxuan specially asked Old Zhou and Song Gengniu to drive the carriage and ox card to send them back. Thinking that now their business was so good and they might be short of hands, Ling Chenglong and Ling Jingpeng also went to help.
As for Wang Jinyu, she planned to take her sons back, but after Ling Jingxuan checked the handbag she made according to the drawing, he found that she had the potential, so he said to her that he’d bring Zhang Qing to town to their his luck, so finally she stayed, by the way, she could make some more handbags of different colors with Ling Yun, Liu Xiaohui and Song Shuiling and Lady Wang.
As it was close to the end of the month, Shopkeeper Zhang boss send someone to hasten the delivery again, because the branches would come to Datong to pick up the goods, and the amount they ordered was horribly big. So Ling Jingxuan who meant to go to town could only stay home and led the whole family to make jam. Almost everyone there would be a few carriages coming to fetch the goods. Only until the last day of August when the last batch of jam was moved onto the carriage could they finally have the chance to have some rest.
“Wow…finally finished, today we got to have a good rest today, Sister-in-law Song, later, you go to the entrance of the village to buy a few jin of pork. We should eat something good as a reward to ourselves.
Watching those carriages leave, Ling Jingxuan gave out an exaggerating breath. The restaurant was asking more and more jam. Only this month, it was nearly ten thousand jin. And it’d only get more next month, which would be a tiresome month for them, but anyway, it wasn’t bad that they could earn more. Otherwise, after he bought the land, they’d go bankrupt, by then, the big bun would pull his face as long as a gorilla.
As Ling Jingxuan thought of here, a touch of helplessness crawled upon his face. He had thought that as long as he could earn enough money, the big bun wouldn’t be so stingy, but…Alas, thereby hangs a tale…
“Oh, I’m gonna go now.”
Sister-in-law Song gladly responded, turned back and ran to the yard, although everyone had been exhausted these days, at this time, they all revealed a happy smile. Having meat to eat, who wouldn’t have a good mood?
“Since we’re not making jam today, I’ll go with Old Zhou to look around in the fields.”
Ling Chenglong was born of a busy body, who couldn’t stay idle. See? As Ling Jingxuan just announced that they could have a day off, he was still worried about his eighty my of land.
“Dad, can’t you have a day off? The rice can’t run by itself in the field.”
Hurriedly moving over to grab his wrist, Ling Jingxuan said so. He knew his dad bore great pressure in the heart, he couldn’t have his nerves high-strung all the time. Having just been busy with so much work, without some rest, even an iron body couldn’t take it.
“I know. I’m just going to take a look.”
Ling Chenglong gave a smirk, making Ling Jingxuan not know whether to let loose of him or not, at this time, Lady Wang suddenly cut in and brushed off Ling Jingxuan’s hand and said, “Go, go, go, you just can’t have a moment’s rest. Jingxuan, ignore him! Let him do whatever he wants to do!”
Having been married for tens of years, how could they not know about each other? Don’t see that Lady Wang was complaining on the surface, in her heart, she also cared about him, but she also knew that none of them could stop him. So, instead of wasting time here, she’d rather let him go early and come back early.
“Hehe…your mother understands me, Jingxuan, I’ll be back soon. It’s OK.”
Speaking of which, Ling Chenglong already left with Old Zhou. Ling Jingxuan shook his head helplessly, turned to go in with Lady Wang and others. At this time, the little buns already started to read, they could already hear their reading sound, like the silver bells, crisp and pleasant. Recently, the luckiest guys should be Ling Jinghan and Zhang Yang. Not only they didn’t have to do any labor work, but also they could go to consult Chu Ci whenever they had something they didn’t understand.
“Why don’t I see brother Zhao and others?”
After going into the central room, Ling Jingxuan sat down and asked. Every time for the goods delivery, they could come to help. But today it seemed he didn’t see them. Something wrong?
“Oh, don’t mention it. Every family has its own problems. Last night you were too tired and went to sleep before the kids. When Han Fei sent Tiewa here, his eyes were red. Apparently he had just cried before coming. As a married woman, I should ask much. So after he left, I secretly asked Tiewa what happened. And he said, family of Dalong’s ex-wife came, on the surface, they said there are here to see Tiewa, but I am quite sure they should have heard that Dalong has earned a lot of money, so they came to ask for a share. Otherwise, why had they never come before? If they really missed their grandson, why would they start to miss him after their daughter has been dead for five years?”
With a woman home, it was like having a gossip collector. About what had happened yesterday, Lady Wang had already made crystal clear. On hearing her, Ling Jingxuan slight frowned. Recently he had been too tired and his body nearly couldn’t hang in there, so after saying hello to Yan Shengrui and asked him to coax the kids to sleep, he went back to his room to sleep already, never expected…Would they be all right? Anyway, the Zhao&Han couple was not that resigned like before, and Zhao Dalong’s ex-wife had been dead for quite a few years and he could have already remarry. Although Han Fei was a man, he was still the decent and legal Mrs. Zhao. So it was not possible if those people planned to take a share. They should be able to handle it well by themselves.
“It was fine. I asked Han Fei quietly last night, and he said they would handle it by themselves. He just asked us to take care of Tiewa these days. Those people should still be their home and wouldn’t leave now. So they don’t want Tiewa to see those people’s nasty side.”
Noticing his concern, Yan Shengrui shook his hand and whispered reassuringly.
