"All right. Go help wolf daddy to build their house. Later, your father and Brother Yan will be back.”
The kids were already sensible enough. Ling Jingxuan didn’t want to push them too hard. He stretched out to touch their heads separately, with both affection and resolution in the eyes. He would never allow those people to touch a hair of his kids!
“OK.”
The three little buns gave each other a look and then turned to leave hand in hand. Ling Jingxuan then sat in the main seat and asked others to sit too. Han Fei said worriedly, “Jingxuan, what should we do? They won’t let it go so easily! I guess there will be endless dirty tricks of them next. Really hard to defend!”
They were farmers, but it didn’t mean they were stupid. Plus they had been through so many things with Ling Jingxuan. So they were already not that bunch of people who had been looked down upon one year ago.
"Now they are only trying to test us. Don’t worry, Brother Han, After lunch, you move into the new house. Don’t step into this mess. Tiewa is Knight Xiaoyao now. Everyone knew that he comes to the capital with me. So I’ll keep him by my side temporarily. No worries. I won’t let anything happen to him.”
Touching his chin for a little meditation, Ling Jingxuan looked up at them, some already budding ideas quickly took root in his heart.
"Why should I worry about him? I'm worried about you, Jingxuan."
"Hehe, I know. There is nothing to worry about. Since I dare come here from Ling Village, I am not afraid of those people. But you, Brother Zhao and Brother Han, Shopkeeper Zhang, it’s not that easy to make a living in the capital. Now, for your safety, I can’t help you too much on the surface. So, if there is anything, you can find Duke Zeng.”
If he would get tricked by those as*holes, how would he still have the face to stay in the capital? Better go back to Ling Village soon!
"But big brother, better an open enemy than a false friend. You and Brother Rui can’t steer by the enemies’ stabs in the back everytime.”
Zhao, Han and others were easy to pacify, but not Ling Jinghan. His eyes was filled with undisguised worries. Yesterday, his doing of sending those beauties to those big families had already offended all those people. Today, even Her Empress Dowager tried to set him up. In the future, maybe more enemies were waiting for him. One can’t afford a single mishap. After all they still had a few kids.
"If I can’t avoid all of them, then I’ll drag them all out under the sun. Jinghan, I know what you are worried about. Do you think I will give them that chance?”
Ling Jingxuan’s source of confidence came from his tough capabilities from his previous life. Of course he could think of what they thought, and even had assumed all kinds of situations and how to deal with them. It was not that he was being blindly arrogant, at least, seen from now, Her Empress Dowager’s means was not so brilliant. If the kids really died in the palace, they could find some maids or what as the scapegoat, but they would also grow a seed of hatred in their hearts. And finally, who would die without an incomplete body was still unknown!
| сom "Then I will feel relieved. Big brother, I know if I blindly stand out for you, I will only be your drag. You can count on me. I will definitely top the exams in the next spring.”
Ling Jinghan knew about his big brother. Without certain confidence, he wouldn’t say those words. Now the only thing he could do was study hard and get a title next year, like Jingpeng could only try to expand their business as much as he could. When he entered the official circle while Jingpeng had accumulated a huge wealth, they could be their big brother’s back. So, others had to weigh it before touching him.
"Hehe…Still those words. Don’t give yourself too much pressure. Just treat it with usual mind. Shaoqi, you got to take care of Jinghan then.”
Halfway through the conversation, Ling Jingxuan suddenly turned to Yuan Shaoqi. If his younger brother exhausted him too much, he would be worried, so he could only place his hope on Yuan Shaoqi, who would move out with Jinghan.
"No problem, I will certainly urge him to rest more. Big brother, you can rest assured."
Shameless taking his words as a pun, Yuan Shaoqi said, with a serious expression on that handsome face he had never had before. Seeing that Ling Jinghan just pretended he didn’t understand and totally had no intention to correct him, Ling Jingxuan slightly nodded with a faint smile, “Hmm. But since you have come back, you have to find a time to go back home. About that shelved engagement, shouldn’t you also solve it?”
Since Jinghan was not a cold-hearted one, as his big brother, of course, he could never watch him become the third person in people’s eyes. Ancient people attached great importance to marriage. Whatever Yuan Shaoqi thought himself, that engagement that hadn’t been settled was still effective.
"An engagement?"
Ling Jinghan slightly frowned, as his eyes turned to Yuan Shaoqi. Why had he never heard of it before?
"Well, that's not true. Don't overthink things. I'll explain to you later."
Yuan Shaoqi hurriedly tried to appease him, then turned to Ling Jingxuan and said prudently, "I have never agreed about that engagement. I will find my old man and get it cleared.”
The old man in his mouth was not his sanctimonious father, but the man who was really in charge of the mansion.
"I just want to remind you. But what to do is your own business."
In short, he couldn’t let his younger suffer!
"I know."
