Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Muyu thought that since the summer days were longer, Chu Heng must have spent more and more time reading books because of the provincial examination, so she delayed dinner time.

When Chu Heng reached home, he saw Lin Zhongjin playing with Chu Jin in the courtyard. He reached out and handed the chicken in his hand to Madam Hu, who was approaching.

At the same time, he was holding a pastry box in his hand.

Lu Chuan saw that Madam and Master were about to speak, so he consciously carried his bookcase into the courtyard.

“This child is?” Chu Heng narrowed his eyes and his gaze fell on Lin Zhongjin.

Lin Zhongjin, who was sitting in the courtyard and watching Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo play, seemed to feel his gaze and suddenly raised his head.

He saw Chu Heng.

A look of understanding flashed across his eyes. He stood up and walked forward, bowing to Chu Heng. “I am Lin Zhongjin, the nephew of Teacher Lin Hanzhen. My uncle has entrusted me to eat at Mrs. Chu’s house. Sorry for disturbing you.”

“Since it’s actually Teacher Lin who said it, you can rest assured and stay here. Go play with Lil’ Jin and Ziluo.” Chu Heng’s voice was calm and he did not care about Zhongjin being there. He could tell at a glance that this child was not ordinary and probably had an extraordinary background.

Even so, because of his relationship with Teacher Lin, he had more or less guessed the other party’s identity, which was why he was so assured.

Lin Zhongjin nodded and returned to the center of the courtyard to watch with Chu Ziluo.contemporary romance

He had always been sensible and would never make things difficult for others. At least, Chu Ziluo felt that this boy really knew how to take care of people’s moods. She liked to play with him.

“If you come back at this time in the future, I’ll make dinner later. Although it’s fine if the summer dishes are cold, the taste is not good. I’m afraid it will affect your stomach.” Ye Muyu took the pastry box from Chu Heng and said gently.

Chu Heng thought about what he had been doing recently and nodded. “Alright. I’ll be back around this time.”

“By the way, the mountain pepper saplings you asked me to find will probably be transported to the village tomorrow. I’ll get Lu Chuan to contact them. You just have to wait at home.” Chu Heng had quite a number of people now, so Ye Muyu did not need to do things personally.

This was also the reason why he had accelerated his development.

Ye Muyu knew that she must have her own career, and it might develop better than she imagined.

“How many are there in total?” she asked.

“I’ve bought a hundred or so for now, but I don’t know how many will survive.

If it’s not enough, tell me again, and I’ll get the caravan to buy more.” Chu Heng’s voice carried a trace of joy. Ye Muyu glanced at him, not knowing what he was happy about.

However, it was a good thing that the mountain pepper tree had arrived. The sooner she planted it, the sooner she could harvest it.

As soon as this idea popped up, Ye Muyu thought of the matter of the mother ginger. Since Chu Heng’s caravan looked so powerful, they should be able to find healthy ginger pieces that were plump, bright, fresh, not dry, not rotten, not frozen, hard, and free of pests, right?

Ye Muyu thought for a while and turned to him. “I also want to buy some tender ginger. Can your caravan buy it?” he asked.

With the idea of making money together as a family, Ye Muyu no longer treated Chu Heng as an outsider.

Chu Heng noticed this change in her and felt much better. He wanted Ah Yu to treat him like family.

“Sure, we’ll call the caravan to set off tomorrow.”

“As long as it can germinate and be planted, I can take it.”

“Ginger matures in winter. It can be used to ward off the cold, so it can also be sold for a lot of money.” Ye Muyu knew that the entire prefecture consumed a lot of ginger in winter.

It was always in short supply.

“Try to buy more. Our family doesn’t have enough land. When the time comes, we can ask the clan to come over and buy ginger seeds if they are willing to plant them..”
