“Mom.”

After sending off those irrelevant people, Ling Jingxuan went to Lady Wang’s room. With the help of Lady Song, she had already washed herself clean and got changed.

“They’re gone?”

Looking up, Ling Wang asked in an absent-minded way, with an obvious feeling of anger in her heart. Ling Jingxuan went over and sat down beside her, “Ling Qicai and Ling Jinghong came, and I let Gengniu tie up Ling Chenghu and sent him to the yamen, Lady Jiang ran away like she had gone mad. I guess she should have gone home and hidden away. Mom, you did a good job today. To deal with that kind of shameless people, you have to be more shameless, otherwise, the more you care about your dignity or what, the further they cross the line. There are some things, even if I don’t say, you should understand. Shengrui’s background isn’t simple. So I’m afraid I won’t stay in here for my whole life. And given Jinghan’s intelligence and talent, it’s not a problem to get listed. And Jingpeng, as our business is becoming bigger and bigger, he may often work outside here and there. Under the premise that we are all away, you and dad have to take care of this family. You know what my dad is like. To put it in a nice way, he is a goody-goody. But to speak bluntly, he is too soft-boned. If you can’t toughen up, this family will sooner or later fall into other’s hands. So, mom, don’t feel burdened or what for things today. We did nothing wrong. They shouldn’t have come make trouble again and again. What others say has nothing to do with us, as long as we have a clear conscience.”

Taking her hand, Ling Jingxuan only picked some nice words to placate her as much as possible, in this era, there were too many unreasonable doctrines, especially for women. The reason Lady Wang dare not fight back was all because of them. She was a good mother, who was clearer than anyone that if she ruined her reputation, it’d also indirectly have a bad influence on her sons. He and Jingpeng would be both occupied in business, so it wouldn’t be a thing. But Jingpeng would have his official career. If people knew that he had such a vixenish and unreasonable mother, he’d be looked down upon. So Lady Wang would restrain herself so hard. Bug he personally held a scornful attitude toward those things. And judging through Jinghan’s action today, he also wouldn’t care about it. Since so, she needn’t wrong herself.

“But…well, since you said so, what can I say? Besides, I already beat them even if I didn’t want to. So it’s no use to regret now. Jingxuan, you said you sent Ling Chenghu to the yamen? Where is Jinghan. Why didn’t he come with you?”

Lady Wang originally wanted to say something, but she swallowed them down finally and changed the subject, with her eyes peeping outside. Seeing that, Ling Jingxuan leaned backward casually, “He went together with Gengniu.”

“What? Why didn’t you stop him? The town is far away. What if something happens along the way?”

Hearing his words, Lady Wang resolutely popped out her eyes, although Ling Jinghan’s illness had been completely cured, in her heart, he was still that fragile porcelain doll.

“Hehe…mom, have you ever heard an idiom? A loving mother always has a spoiled wastrel son.”

Without answering her question, Ling Jingxuan grinned while pressed a hand over her shoulder, with an undisguised teasing expression. Lady Yang who was waiting on aside also couldn’t help lowering her head, sniggering. So Master Xuan also has such a naughty side!

“Screw you, I am serious.”

Embarrassed, Lady Wang pushed his head away with a finger, that little bit left bad mood and the worries about Ling Jinghan were already nowhere to find. Even she herself didn’t sense it. Ling Jingxuan smoothened his high-tied ponytail villainously and stood up, “Mom, Jinghan has already fully recovered. Sooner or later, he has to make contact with people. It isn’t a bad thing to see outside world earlier. Don’t worry. Besides, he has Gengniu around. He wouldn’t suffer. If there’s nothing else, I’m going into the mountains. Jingpeng and others are waiting for water.”

Ling Jingxuan did not say was given Ling Jinghan’s black-bellied personality, others should feel lucky that he didn’t bully them. How could it ever be others’ turn to bully him?

“Ah, how about I go with you? I can also help.”

Then she stood up and said so. On such a hot day, watching her husband and sons were all so busy, she really didn’t have the heart to rest aside.

“Mom, I’ve managed to get you a little better now. Don’t mess with yourself any more. It’s stuffy and hot on the mountain. If you wanna help, like before, wash those wild fruit with me in the afternoon.”

Holding down her shoulder to press her back, as Ling Jingxuan just stepped out two steps, she said to Lady Yang, “Burn those clothes the madam has just exchanged. And you should also take a bath and get changed.”

It sounded like a normal instruction, Lady Wang who was sitting with her head against him found nothing wrong except still feeling a little sorry for her son. But Lady Yang who was facing him felt startled as she saw his freezing cold expression, she hurriedly nodded while saying yes repeatedly. Giving her the last glance, Ling Jingxuan strode out of his mother’s room.

On the side of old Ling family, after hearing that Ling Jinghan had sent Ling Chenghu to the yamen in person, the old lord nearly passed out. And the old lady was so mad that she hurled all kinds of abuse, nasty words like son of a bitch, ungrateful as*holes, all bad words one could imagine. But it seemed she had forgotten, who would be more like a b*tch like her own daughter?

“Enough! All you know is shouting abuses every day! Go get the money now! I’ll go to town with my Qicai. That useless thing! See how I beat him after he is back!”

After getting himself together, Ling Qiyun mercilessly stared at the old woman, in the heart he put the blame on her. If it hadn’t been she had gone too far, how would Chenglong have moved out and lived independently from them? And now Jinghan should have been fully healed, in the future…Alas, such a big misfortune of the family!

“What? Use money to save him? Are you crazy, my lord? Who doesn’t know that the yamen is full of hungry wolves, and how much money can our farmers have for them to squeeze?”

On hearing that they had to spend money, the old woman ignored his bright shimmer of disgust, voice instantly pulled up a few degrees, wearing a flesh-cutting expression on her face. Ling Chengcai who was only standing there watching the drama sniggered with schadenfreude, until his wife poked him secretly and threw him an eye did he come to himself. So he moved forward, “Dad, mom said right. However rich our farmer families are, we can never stuff up those people. Besides, the shared money is ours. If you use it to save Chenghu, what about us in the future? We are both your sons, you can’t be partial to him!”
