The Blessed

“Well, although it’s not much, it’s still acceptable. When the one who has the final say comes, let’s do something big!”

Out of Baiyunge, Ling Jingxuan casually threw the bundle with the silver ingots to Zhang Qing. Next, they should visit Magistrate Hu, who was said to be clean-fingered and caring for the people.

“Is this... really ours?”

Steadily catching the bundle, Zhang Qing asked like a fool. So his big cousin just said something, and those handbags they made were sold at the price of one hundred taels of silver??? He couldn’t even save that much even if he worked like a bull for ten years without eating and drinking! Why did it look so easy for his big cousin to make money?

“Hehe... didn't you see it just now? We have signed the contract with them!”

Knowing why he was shocked, Ling Jingpeng hugged his shoulders. He could understand his shock. Like when they earned the first one hundred taels selling the jam, he also performed the same way. And from then on, he understood what his big brother meant by saying having a flexible brain. And he worked hard helping his big brother making jam to support their family.

“I saw it, yeah, but…Cousin Jingpeng, isn’t it too easy to make the money?”

Zhang Qing still couldn’t accept it. Ling Jingpeng laughed, “Only a hundred taels and you think it’s too easy? What if we do businesses of a thousand or even ten thousand? Would you get scared to death?”

“No…no way!”

“Why not! Didn’t you see my big brother’s confident eyes just now? I think when that Lord Six comes, we would make a huge fortune! Maybe it will not be only thousands of taels of silver thing!”

Pouting his lips at the back the Ling Jingxuan, Ling Jingpeng had all admiration and firmness in the eyes. Some day, he would have his position in the business circle like his big brother!

As Zhang Qing looked over following his line of sight, the great shock under his eyes slowly disappeared, replaced by the unexplained fever and worship, before today, he only felt his big cousin was quite capable, seen from now, it was far more than that! He was a god-like figure that could turn the foul and rotten into the rare and ethereal!

“Why do you have to see Zeng Shaoqing? Aren't you afraid he may take me away from you?”

Yan Shengrui, who walked in front of him, can't hide his resentment in his tone, and he had a feeling that once he saw Zeng Shaoqing, those lost things would be picked up again, and he could no longer hide in the countryside and stayed with his sons and him whenever he wanted. So to him in person, he repulsed that possibility.

“If you are so easy to be taken away, I don't care. Shengrui, I want to marry you soon.”

Stopped his steps to turn around to look at him, Ling Jingxuan looked rarely serious. It was true that he wanted to cooperate with Zeng Shaoqing, but he also wanted to use him to stimulate Yan Shengrui and try to help him regain his memories. That was a decision he made after thorough consideration, not a moment’s thing.

“But...what if I have to leave you after I remember everything?”

As Shengrui, Ling Jingxuan and their two sons were his everything. But as Yan Shengrui, the only general prince, he had compelling obligation on his shoulders. The boarders were unstable after his disappearance, and the aged Duke Zeng also had to go to the wars, let alone the soaring dark current below inside the imperial family. After regaining his memories, he could never selfishly stay by their side only while leaving people of the whole kingdom behind.

“Then leave.”

Shrugging, Ling Jingxuan stepped forward again. Yan Shengrui grabbed his arm and pulled him back, “Am I so dispensable to you?”

His sword-shape brows furrowed into a ball… How could he say it so easily?

“Haha…what are you thinking?”

Noticing what he meant, Ling Jingxuan couldn't help laughing. Totally regardless that they were in the streets, he took the initiative to grab his hand, ten fingers crossed, saying while walking, “Now we still don’t know whether Zeng Shaoqing’s appearance would help you regain all your memories. Even if you remember everything, Shengrui, as the prince, you have the responsibility to protect your people. Although I am not that broad-minded, I won’t stop you. You can do things you should do. And I will wait for you in Ling village with the kids. After the boarders got stabilized and there are no more wars, we can get united then. And by then, you should take us to the imperial capital to widen our eyes, shouldn’t you? I am quite interested in that place.”

To be more exact, he was more interested in the pouches of those people there. As for those nasty things of the imperial family, if possible, he didn’t want to meddle in. But he knew it was impossible. The little buns still had to go back to find their origin there. If they really got married, as his crown prince, he had to show his face, right?

A farmer, a wicked farmer who can give birth to children. Wow, it would be very lively then, right?

“Don't lie to me. You don't like being involved into the fights over power of the imperial family, and I won't let them bother you.”

After looking at him deeply for a while, Yan Shengrui said firmly.

“Hehe…I am looking forward to it then!”

Naughtily throwing him a leer, he drew a closure to this topic, four people hopped onto the carriage. Having been out for long, he didn’t know how the little buns were doing now.
