Chapter 152 Dragon Boat Festival (Section End) 2

“Yes, we’ve prepared all the tools.” Lin Si Yao pondered for a while. “You can ask the Wang family if they want to contract the five-acre land we’ve just acquired.”

“Contract?” She used to hear this word from Yang Jing Zhi. Every time Jing Zhi came to the private mansion to do a health check for people, when she had free time, she would babble a lot to Shuilian, suggesting she let the people in the town contract all the lands in the private mansion and the shops. Every year, she would pay them according to the quantity of the crops.

“Yeah, when the silk farm comes to operation, during the harvest time, we can try to arrange people. But in other times, we would face a shortage of workers.” Lin Si Yao frowned, thinking. “The Wang family has been working with crops for many generations. It shouldn’t be a problem for them to work with this piece of five-acre land. And, they can work normally during the harvest time.”

“Yeah, it’s a good idea. Now we have many people working in private mansions. They can try their best during the harvest time, but during the year, they have their own respective jobs. Compared to setting aside other people to work on that five-acre land, it’d be better to ask the Wang family to take care of it and we will pay them every year.” Su Shuilian nodded in agreement.

“Now that the situation is solved, can you come over now?” Lin Si Yao glanced at her. There were only the two of them here, and she was thinking about other people and other stuff.

“A Yao!” Su Shuilian didn’t know if she should cry or smile. But the night had fallen, so she gracefully took off her coat. She was about to lay on the bed when he suddenly pulled her into his warm embrace.

“You… Aren’t you tired?” He had come home after lunch time and he had made love with her right away without taking a rest. After having lunch, he had been busy preparing Si Luo and Ying Yun’s wedding. During the reception, Si Chong made him drink many toasts with Si Luo. And now it was midnight and he still wanted…

“I am…” He mumbled as if he was complaining. Then, he turned his body to lay atop her warm and fragrant body. His hands began to wander on her body.

“Didn’t you say that you’re tired?” Su Shuilian couldn’t help but laugh while looking at him. However, her hands obediently wrapped around his neck as she felt his hot breath that heated up her face, ears, and neck… Until his passion burned her entirely…

“Let’s do this and I won’t feel tired…” Perhaps it was due to the wine, he was more passionate. He freely attacked her body until she was exhausted and slumped under his body. Then, he grunted, releasing himself…

He used a clean cloth to gently wipe hers before pulling her into his embrace. The night grew old and their love remained strong… Tomorrow, they still need to work on a lot of things. However, their busy work was for the prosperity of He Yuan, so he happily endured… Everything was because of her. She was here as his company… Everything was for her.

“Mom… Mom…” Five-year-old Lin Xiao charged into the room, calling for Su Shuilian. Searching around, he caught no sign of his mother so he rushed back to the main house. “Sister He, where’s mom? She promised to teach me how to make cherry wine today.”

“Young Master, Madam just departed. How about this maid go pick the cherries first? We need to pick the cherries then wash them before making wine.” Bai He gently persuaded Lin Xiao, who looked as serious as an adult.

Talking about the five-year-old twins, after their first birthday, their contrasting characters became more distinguishable.

The Young Lady Lin Long liked to stay quiet. She could hide in the study room for the whole day without making a sound. Only when the Master of Feng Yao Court came, she would become happy and follow Master Si to study the complicated Heart Sutra in the octagonal gazebo by the lotus lake.

However, Young Master Lin Xiao was completely different from her. Other than his active and lively character, Lin Xiao liked to bury himself in making wines and cooking the dishes he liked. If the staff didn’t worry about the boy’s safety and didn’t let him climb to the stove, he would be able to cook with his ladle now. Before he turned five, Lin Xiao had already successfully concocted his own sweet-scented osmanthus wine by himself. Liang-momo guessed that their Young Master would become an owner of a successful restaurant one day. However, with his identity as the Elder Wangye’s grandson, the elderly would be so mad… If he were to find out, he would blow his beard and give a death glare!

During the wedding yesterday, Her Ladyship had mentioned the ripe cherries in their garden. As there were so many, with not enough mouths to finish it, the cherries may be better to be used to make wine. Their Young Master still remembered this, so as soon as he woke up and before he washed his face, he ran to find his mother.

And their Third Young Master, Lin Xi, was also another character of his own. He liked everything, and to him, everything was precious. During his Zhuazhou, he had swarmed everything on the mattress into his lap. He didn’t want to let go of anything… No one knew what he would want to become when he grew up.

“Bai He!” As Bai He was about to take Lin Xiao to wash his face and have breakfast, she heard the clear but cold voice of a child arise behind her. She didn’t need to turn around to know who was calling her. It was absolutely the Young Lady Lin Long.

“Young Lady?”

“Where’s mom?” Lin Long asked with an emotionless face. It was rare that she wanted to see her mom and she couldn’t find her even though it was early in the morning.

“Her Ladyship went to a villager’s house in the town. She seemed to want to discuss the new five acres of land they have just acquired. Young Lady, do you have any urgent matters? Do you need this maid to help you?” It was rare that their Young Lady wanted to see her mother, so Bai He thought it may be something serious.

“Nevermind. I will talk to her when she’s back.” Lin Long waved her hand and turned around, returning to her little study room.

She wondered when her Shifu would arrive. She had already memorized the Heart Sutra. She wanted to learn something new, like qinggong or sword technique… Sigh…
