Chapter 36
Xiao Jingting had long known that Xiao Jinfeng might be coming, therefore he bought a small bed. He also drove the two boys to sleep in the smaller bed while he and Xu Muan slept in the bigger bed. Fearing that Xiao Xiaofan would not sleep nicely and roll down, Xiao Jingting bought a bed with guardrails.
Although he already had two sons, Xiao Jingting was still a little shy about sharing a bed with Xu Muan.
Xiao Jingting was shy and Xu Muan was also a little nervous, so the two of them lay on the bed a little stiffly. Xiao Xiaofan was sleeping, the house was quiet but the sound of Xiao Xiaofan turning over and grinding his teeth could still be heard clearly by Xiao Jingting.
Xiao Jingting stretched out his hand and grabbed Xu Muan’s hand, Xu Muan trembled slightly but didn’t move, allowing Xiao Jingting to grab it.
Xiao Jingting found it interesting and grasped Xu Muan’s hand tighter.
Worried about his thoughtful eldest son, Xiao Jingting did not dare to do anything more.
“Will second elder brother sleep well?” Xiao Jingting asked.
Xu Muan hesitated before saying, “I don’t know.”
Mu Shuyu and Xiao Jinfeng lay on the same bed. Mu Shuyu was supposed to sleep on the floor but of course Xiao Jinfeng could not let Mu Shuyu, who was a Ger sleep on the floor. The two of them argued before finally sleeping on the same bed.
The next day.
Mu Shuyu stayed in the courtyard helping Xu Muan pick grapes, “Mr. Xu! The grapes you are growing are very good. ”
Xu Muan nodded with pride and said, “Yes. Brother Shuyu, don’t call me Mr. Xu anymore, just call me Muan.”
“Okay. Muan. It seems your husband has already reached the fourth level of Qi cultivation.”
Xu Muan nodded and said, “Yes!” Xu Muan was a little suspicious. When he left, Xiao Jingting hadn’t advanced yet. He heard from Xiaodong that Xiao Jingting advanced not long after he left but he did not know how Xiao Jingting managed to do that.
Mu Shuyu shook his head and said, “Brother Jinfeng always said that this younger brother of his was a slacker, but he was wrong.”
“Not really. He’s changed a lot recently.” Xu Muan said.
Mu Shuyu withdrew his gaze and didn’t ask too many questions. After picking the grapes, the two of them worked together to deliver the grapes to the Yuehe Restaurant.
“Xu Muan, you are back!” Zhou Ji, the owner of the restaurant, seeing Xu Muan, spoke warmly.
Xu Muan nodded and said, “Yes! Boss Zhou, your business is getting bigger and bigger!” Xu Muan found out that Zhou Ji’s restaurant expanded by half. With people coming and going, his business was flourishing.
“It’s all thanks to your husband. Did you bring the grapes?” Zhou Ji asked.
Ever since Xiao Jingting’s grapes started to sell well, several families had followed Xiao Jingting’s example and started growing grapes, however the taste of grapes they grew was not good. Some of them tasted okay, but the aura contained in them was far from the ones grown by Xiao Jingting.
Several families who had originally canceled orders from Xiao Jingting regretted it after discovering that the quality of the grapes was different and wanted to renew the contract with Xiao Jingting. However, Xiao Jingting was stubborn and didn’t pay any attention to them. Boss Zhou Ji saw that the quality of the grapes was very good and it sold well, so he didn’t take advantage of Xiao Jingting and took the initiative to raise the price to two hundred and fifty copper coins for a string of grapes.
“Boss Zhou, can you sell so many grapes?” Xu Muan asked.
Zhou Ji nodded and said, “Yes, I can sell all of them.” Sales of fresh grapes were limited in the end, so Xiao Jingting taught Zhou Ji how to make grape drinks. These drinks made from that grape were very popular and many rich ladies and gentlemen were willing to spend a lot of money to buy them.
Xu Muan’s eyes widened and there was a bit of consternation in his heart.
“By the way, do you have any wine?” Zhou Ji asked.
Xu Muan nodded and said, “I have brought some jars over.”
There were a total of thirteen jars of wine. Two jars were sold and three jars were drunk. In order to earn enough money as soon as possible, Xiao Jingting decided to sell another five jars.
Wine sold well and Xiao Jingting’s wine was sold by jars. After Zhou Ji bought it, he changed it into porcelain bottles. A jar of wine could almost fill ten porcelain bottles. This wine had a strong, pure aura and the 20 small bottles that came out last time were sold at once.
“Here are eight hundred taels of silver, keep it.” Zhou Ji very readily took out the bank note.
Xu Muan who received the bank note, only felt like he had received a hot potato.
Mu Shuyu looked at Xu Muan and asked, “Shall we go back now?”
Xu Muan hesitated before saying, “Jingting said if it was still early after we sold the grapes, we should find out where the detoxification pills are sold.”
Hearing Xu Muan’s words, Mu Shuyu immediately calmed down a bit. Mu Shuyu vaguely heard that Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng were at odds with each other so he was very worried that Xiao Jingting would not be willing to save Xiao Jinfeng.
“Is there any big shop in this town?” Mu Shuyu asked.
Xu Muan shook his head and said, “No, but Qingcheng city is nearby, there should be one there. Let’s first go to the pill shop here and ask around. If there isn’t one, we’ll have to take a trip to Qingcheng.”
Mu Shuyu nodded and said, “All right!”
Xiao Jinfeng followed Xiao Jingting to the fields. Now that Xiao Jingting was an inspirational model for Mound village, people were very curious when they saw another person beside Xiao Jingting.
When Xiao Jingting was busy and Xiao Jinfeng was left alone, villagers came up to inquire about the background of Xiao Jinfeng.
In the end, Xiao Jinfeng was a person from a big family and he answered their questions in a smart way and got to know many things about Xiao Jingting in return.
Xiao Jinfeng had asked many people and learned that when Xiao Jingting first came, he was really fooling around, eating and drinking heavily, gambling and whoring. Then, somehow he became enlightened and began to work hard. Xiao Jinfeng was using his spirit technique to stimulate the growth of spiritual plants in the ground. Looking at the lush spiritual plants in the field, Xiao Jinfeng secretly thought: this brother of his really became different.
