"Sister, look! Do you think we can build a house on this land?" Yiyi pointed to a bend along the way. Only one side was close to the mountain, and the rest of the terrain was flat. The most important thing was that there was a small natural hot spring pool here.

Yanan looked around and was quite satisfied. "Yiyi, you have a good eye. It's great! There's a natural bathing pool and places for farming and breeding! What's more important is that it's not far from your home!" I didn't expect that I could find a satisfactory place just by taking a walk. It's so convenient.

Yanan mentioned tomorrow's arrangements by the way, "They will arrange people to come over to build the house tomorrow. You and I will go to Xiaoyao Garden to rinse the pickled wild boar meat with hot water to dry the surface moisture. We can smoke it in the evening."

"Sister, is two days of marinating enough?" Yiyi asked again. She didn't know if it had absorbed the flavor.

"It's OK. They cut it into smaller pieces so it's easier for the flavor to absorb." Yanan watched them cutting and marinating and felt that there was no problem.

Yiyi: "Well, Xiaoyao Garden just happens to have orange leaves and orange peels for fumigation!"

When the two sisters walked and talked back to the wooden house, they saw Ling Wuxin and Nanchen playing chess, and Xiao Ba had returned early. He stood behind Ling Wuxin and seemed to have just finished reporting his work. Yiyi took out a small bamboo basket and put the hot spring chestnuts on the tea table, inviting everyone to eat chestnuts. Boiled chestnuts naturally have fewer openings. Yiyi was not particular about details, so she bit them with her teeth and then peeled them with her hands. Xiao Ba saw her movements, sat down silently, used a small dagger to open the chestnuts, and pushed them to them.

"Thank you, Brother Xu!" Yiyi thanked Xiao Ba and asked him, "Is it exciting over there today?"

"Exciting! It's very lively. The amount of wood cut down should be enough. Moreover, the teammates who went later went into the mountains to hunt in the morning and brought back a batch of prey at noon, especially a lot of pheasants and hares. When I came back, almost all of them went hunting. I don't know if the prey would be scared to death with so many people going there?" Xiao Ba smiled and talked lightly about the topic that Yiyi was interested in.

Yanan also asked, "How is the factory building being built?"

Xiao Ba answered seriously, "The garment factory framework has been built, and we are waiting to put on the roof and lay the floor. Now we are building a furniture factory and a food processing factory, and the accommodation and warehouse are also being built at the same time. The scale is quite large!"

"That's pretty fast!" The two sisters got a satisfactory answer and stopped asking questions. They happily peeled chestnuts and ate them. Yiyi peeled a small plate of chestnuts and pushed it to Ling Wuxin, asking him to eat while playing chess. Ling Wuxin gave her a warm smile in return. Yanan took the peeled chestnuts and stuffed them directly into Nanchen's mouth, distracting Nanchen and causing him to make the wrong move. He lost to the boss in just a few moves.

Ling Wuxin gave Lao Er a meaningful look. He was not strong enough! Nanchen was not to be outdone and gave him a look. Same here! The game could not continue. The two sat back beside their women, feeding them and chatting!

Yiyi guessed that today's hunting would yield a lot of rewards, and said frankly that she didn't want to watch the pig slaughter anymore. Ling Wuxin smiled and said: "You have a lot of confidence in them!"

"Uh, shouldn't I have confidence? There should be a lot of prey in the mountains, right?" Yiyi suddenly became uncertain.

"It's hard to say. It's OK if you meet it. If you don't, there's nothing you can do! It's not easy to make a living by living in the mountains. You may get the big rewards you imagine, or you may not!" Ling Wuxin explained patiently.

"Oh, I was thinking wrongly. This means we should cherish every harvest. Tomorrow my sister and I will go to get the pickled wild boar meat to dry and smoke." Yiyi mentioned tomorrow's arrangements by the way.

"Well, whatever you do, let Xiaojiu help you!" Ling Wuxin didn't want his woman to get tired, so he pushed his nephew out! "When do you want them to go pick kiwis and chestnuts and go down the mountain?"

"Wait until the earthen oven is ready before picking them. They can still be left on the tree for a while longer to allow them to mature a little more." Yiyi thought it over again and again and was no longer in a hurry to take the fruits home.

"Okay! If you want to eat them, ask Xiao Qi to send someone to pick them." Ling Wuxin arranged his woman's affairs and asked his brother about building a house. "Second brother, do you want to go out and choose a place now?"

Yanan replied: "I had already found a place on the way back with Yiyi. Do you want to go and see it now, husband?"

Nanchen nodded: "Okay, let's go take a look and mark the area."

Xiao Ba found a measuring rope for them, and the group got up and prepared to go out. Yiyi did not forget to ask her eldest sister to take half a bag of chestnuts, including Bai Lu's, so that they could be delivered to her after the measurement. Seeing this, Xiao Ba consciously acted as a porter.

The chosen place is about 40 to 50 feet away from Yiyi's wooden house. Nanchen is also very satisfied with it. It has a certain degree of concealment, especially it is very close to his eldest brother's house. Several people worked together to pull the line and circled a square plot of land. The natural hot spring pool is planned in the backyard, the vegetable garden is arranged in the backyard, three townhouses are planned in the middle, the front is the courtyard, and the kitchen and utility room are built on the left and right. Yanan is very satisfied with this plan, and repeatedly stated that he can move in and be a neighbor to Yiyi in half a month at most, so that they can go to see Bailu together in the future. After everything was arranged, Yanan said goodbye to Yiyi.

"Xiao Ba, you take Li Zi to Xiaoyao Garden. When they come back from hunting, bring back some fresh meat for cooking. Leave the rest to the people in the kitchen." Ling Wuxin didn't want to arrange Xiao Ba to work, so he dragged Yiyi's hand and left the hot spring valley.

Ling Wuxin lowered his head and said to Yiyi, "Be good, I'll take you to the warehouse and the cellar to check it out, so that you won't have any wild thoughts."

"Who is having wild thoughts?!" Yiyi was not convinced. She just wanted to do something, so there was no point in having wild thoughts.

Ling Wuxin replied seriously, "Yes, you are not imagining things, but you are always worried that I can't support you."

"No, I just thought about what I could do for the world!" Yiyi defended herself seriously.

"That's why you say you're my lucky baby! Huh?" Ling Wuxin hugged the person and sat him in his arms, speaking with an infinitely doting tone.

"Oh...you'd better put me down and take a walk. I really feel like I've gained weight." Yiyi hugged his head in panic.

"Don't let go!" The man held her legs tighter with his hands and took the opportunity to tilt his head back and rub Yi Yi's soft chest.

Poor little Yiyi stared in disbelief, looking as if she had never expected that you are such a husband?! You take advantage of me in broad daylight...

"Hahaha... your husband can still be trusted, but you can't trust others. Do you understand?" The man who was amused by Guaiguai's reaction did not forget to brainwash her with a clear conscience.

"Shameless... I'm not in a hurry, I want to walk by myself." Yiyi cursed and tried to struggle down.

"Okay, tell your husband when you're tired and I'll take you flying." Ling Wuxin finally met her request, put her down, and the two of them went to the warehouse hand in hand. Yiyi saw that they were returning to their original residence, so she asked, "Is it set up in our house? How come I didn't know about it?"

"You'll know soon," Ling Wuxin said and took people to the study.

Huh? Yiyi has been here many times. Just when she was wondering, she saw Ling Wuxin lightly press the wall behind the bookshelf. With a light click, the bookshelf automatically moved away and a door appeared. Ling Wuxin stretched out his hand to Yiyi and took Yiyi through the door. It was a small room with nothing on it. Ling Wuxin pressed the hidden mechanism again, and the floor moved away to reveal a downward sloping ladder. "The warehouse is downstairs," Ling Wuxin said softly. "Oh, it turns out to be a basement." Yiyi followed Ling Wuxin down the ladder.

What? Such a big place, filled with rows of boxes, surrounded by earth and stone walls, the light source is actually coming from the roof? Yiyi looked at the roof in surprise, wondering where it was? She had never seen such a place before? Seeing that she didn't care about the things in the boxes, but looked at the roof instead, Ling Wuxin couldn't help but laugh and explained, "The lower floor was built first, and then the upper floor. The light is natural light, blocked by glass. There are gaps between the walls of the houses. They are two walls, not a shared wall as seen from the outside." Yiyi suddenly realized and gave Ling Wuxin a thumbs up, "Awesome! Really smart!"

"My dear, do you want to see my husband's treasury?" Ling Wuxin wanted to show off.

"All of this? Gold? Silver?" Yiyi was shocked. Although she didn't have a clear concept of gold and silver, stacking so many boxes together would be a mountain of gold and silver! Yiyi, who felt overwhelmed by the wealth, waved her hands and said, "No, no!"

"I only need to look at the daily treasury. I am not interested in gold and silver!"

Yiyi said very toughly that she was not interested in money! In her heart, she kept adding drama to herself, saying well said! Great! This is probably the toughest thing she has ever said in her life! What else can she do? The feeling of being unilaterally crushed is so sour!

Yiyi's lack of interest made Ling Wuxin laugh. He put his arm around her waist and said, "Your husband is a good boy! Remember that?"

Yiyi's eyes were so innocent and pitiful! "Husband, I don't have a chance to spend money at all, what do you think?"

Ling Wuxin was happy again when she saw this, and hurried to comfort her. "Hahaha, there will always be a chance to spend money, and your husband will help you spend money in the future!"

Yiyi's eyes lit up instantly when she heard this, "I'll remember it!"

After showing off his wealth in front of his wife, the man took Yiyi to an ordinary warehouse. Although it is called an ordinary warehouse, it is not ordinary at all. It is also in this compound, but it is a side yard where Yiyi does not go. Carriages can go directly to the gate of the yard, and guards are arranged to guard it. On weekdays, the fourth brother often transports back truckloads of goods, and they are all placed in this yard. Yiyi looked at each warehouse and found it was full of various goods: cloth, fur, precious medicinal materials, jewelry, ornaments, armor, weapons... It seemed to be the warehouse she knew, but it seemed not to be. Yiyi was dazzled. When she left, she left with a jewelry box in her arms. In fact, she really didn't like wearing jewelry because she thought it was troublesome! But she couldn't stop the man from picking and choosing for her. In his words, he was taking it to play with!

Ling Wuxin: "There are several granaries and cellars. Do you still want to see?"

"Please spare me, I won't watch it anymore!" Yiyi was convinced.

Ling Wuxin asked again, "Are you still worried that your husband won't be able to support you in the future?"

Yiyi: “…I wasn’t worried at first!”

"Yes, I know. My dear is just trying to help my husband share his worries!"

Yiyi raised her chin proudly and said, of course!
