Exiled to Lingnan, the Crown Prince's wife raises children, cultivates the land, and leads the

"Of course it's believable!"

Upon hearing his daughter-in-law's words, Marquis Zhongyong replied without hesitation, thinking: "How can I not trust my own son?"

"Then, is he really a eunuch?" Cheng Qiqi asked again.

"..."

Marquis Zhongyong fell silent. Suyi had misunderstood, and now his daughter-in-law had also misunderstood. Should he... say yes or no?

Seeing his hesitant expression, Cheng Qiqi assumed that Heitu being a eunuch was a private matter and didn't think much of it. She changed the subject, asking, "Father, I see that Heitu is very good to An'an. Did the young master really save Heitu's life before?"

"The young master is gone. Has Heitu passed on this kindness to An'an?"

Cheng Qiqi's question seemed to reveal worry in her eyes. She didn't know how strong the relationship between the young master and Heitu was. She only knew that some people would develop bad feelings because they lacked something!

"It's more than just a life-saving grace; it's like being given a second life. Without Mo Zhi, there would be no Heitu."

The Marquis of Zhongyong answered decisively, "His feelings for An'an are just like... the concern of an elder for a junior; he would never have any other thoughts."

Marquis Zhongyong patted his chest and assured her that his daughter-in-law Cheng Qiqi's worries were completely unnecessary!

Mo Zhi is An'an's biological father, how could he possibly hurt An'an?

"That's good, Father. I'll go back to my room now."

Cheng Qiqi was relieved; her father-in-law's guarantee was quite reliable.

As soon as Cheng Qiqi left, Marquis Zhongyong went to find Heitu. It was still on a deserted hillside, guarded by mountains not far away.

"What did you do? Qiqi is starting to suspect you have ulterior motives towards An'an."

Marquis Zhongyong examined his son by the moonlight. The fake beard he had put on made his handsome face look more rugged.

"No!"

Upon hearing this, Jin Moyi retorted without hesitation, "Father, An'an is my own daughter. I just helped her up."

That faint scent of jasmine, mixed with her unique fragrance, still makes him think there's something wrong with his nose!

Otherwise, why can I always faintly smell this fragrance?

"Yeah?"

Marquis Zhongyong's eyes were filled with suspicion as he said, "This is a matter between you and your husband, and it's none of my business. I just want to ask about the situation at Pingsha Pass. When are you going back?"

"Go back after spring planting."

When Jin Mozhi mentioned Pingsha Pass, a cold glint flashed in his dark eyes: "I previously befriended a younger brother of He Bai's deputy general. He particularly loves to eat, and knowing that I am a merchant from the south, he especially liked the oyster sauce and sugar he brought."

"This time, I plan to bring more seafood with me."

Jin Mozhi explained his method, saying, "You've been allocated so much land; how can just a few of you possibly cultivate it all?"

He had been stationed at Pingsha Pass for several years. At this time, he dared not take any action other than checking the evidence. Otherwise, if he were discovered, all his previous efforts would be in vain!

What he needs to do is hit the bullseye every time!

hold on.

……

"Master, you know what, I feel like my body is even stronger now!"

After practicing for a few days and squatting in the horse stance, Jin Yanzhi felt that he was much stronger than before!

"How about we practice?"

Jin Mozhi looked up.

In just a few breaths, when Jin Yanzhi was knocked to the ground, all his confidence shattered into dust.

spit.

Jin Yanzhi spat out the bamboo leaf he had accidentally eaten, pressed his hand firmly against the muddy ground, looked up at the black soil covering his beard, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit that refused to admit defeat!

"I will definitely beat you in the future."

Jin Yanzhi rolled to his feet, gritted his teeth, and went to squat on the horse-riding post again!

"Brother, can he really keep going?"

Chongshan looked at Jin Yanzhi's back as he gritted his teeth and squatted on the horse stance in disbelief. He practiced early in the morning and late at night, worked during the day, and only slept for three hours a day. Was he really going to go all out?

"Keep a close eye on me after I leave."

Jin Mozhi looked at Jin Yanzhi's trembling legs, yet he was still persevering. In his dark eyes, there was a hint of... complex thoughts.

"Brother, are you really going to teach me?"

Chongshan's eyes widened in shock. Could it be that Jin Mozhi was only pretending to teach Jin Yanzhi in order to torment him?

If you dare to have any fantasies about your sister-in-law, aren't you just asking for trouble?

But now... is the eldest brother really teaching?

"Not only him, but also the younger brothers of the Jin family need to be taught."

Jin Mozhi said definitively, "If they didn't have the strength, how could they protect the women?"

Even though the villagers warned my father about Hu Dali's incident beforehand, he still ended up injured. There are too many variables in Lingnan; we must make them all stronger!

"Master!"

The unanimous words startled Chongshan: Jin Lizhi, Jin Runzhi…

All the male members of the Jin family in this generation came.

……

The sugar mill is finished making sugar. The whole mill is filled with the fresh aroma of oyster sauce and dried oyster paste.

Cheng Qiqi was in a good mood as she watched as all the jars of oyster sauce were finished and the dried oyster sauce was being simmered next to them.

She went to the village head's house and brought out the flower dew she had made.

"Oh my, what's this? It smells delicious!"

Looking at the small bottle of water, Ms. Tian noticed that as soon as the cap was opened, a fragrant floral scent wafted out.

"Aunt Tian, ​​these are jasmine flowers from the mountain. The steamed flower syrup, oyster sauce, and dried oyster sauce are almost ready. I'd like to take advantage of the fact that the flowers are still in bloom and spend a few days making the flower syrup."

"Perfect timing, it won't delay spring planting."

Cheng Qiqi explained her idea, saying, "In Kyoto, this kind of flower dew can easily sell for fifty coins a bottle. If we have time to purify it further, the price could double. So, I need lots and lots of flowers right now!"

"Sell it for money? Sure!"

Before the village head could speak, Madam Tian readily agreed: "Except for a few who make fish balls, all the other women can work with you on the flower dew business!"

"Well then, the sooner the better. Let's go pick flowers together tomorrow morning while there's still dew."

As Cheng Qiqi spoke, she signed the contract with practiced ease and pressed her fingerprint on it. The contract clearly stated how the money would be divided and how the work would be assigned.

"Old man, tell me, with Jin Xue'er having such a good-money sister-in-law, it doesn't seem like a bad deal for our family to marry her!"

From the very beginning, Tian Shi was firmly opposed to Zhuang Haichao marrying Jin Xueer, but now, she seems to be softening her stance!

These days, Madam Tian has had quite a bit of contact with Jin Xue'er. Although she is a pampered young lady, she is quite meticulous when it comes to work...

She and her sister Jin Qing'er were both the type to work quietly and peacefully, especially when it came to their mentally challenged son.

They had absolutely no intention of doing anything about it; they wanted to stay as far away as possible.

Upon meeting her, he showed no flattery or desire to marry into her family.

At first, Tian thought she might be faking it, but after observing her for a long time, she realized that Jin Xue'er really had no intention of getting married and leaving the Jin family.

"Do you think she'd be willing to marry him?" Zhuang Lizheng glanced at her.

Tian: "..." Is it still that my stupid son is useless? He can't even catch a young girl?
