Yang Zhongyi was leaving, and Jiang Xinyu and Zhao Xiaoli also ca out to see him off. Jing Chu couldn’t do anything but follow along, even though she actually didn’t want to move.
Yang Zhongyi was happy to catch a glimpse of the little girl before leaving. Although they hadn’t officially spoken a word, he was already very satisfied. There would be more chances in the future; as long as there was an opportunity, he would co back.
"Captain, are you going to co here often?"
"Of course."
"Captain, next ti you co, don’t co empty-handed. I’ve eaten such good food here, I’m feeling a bit embarrassed."
"Haha, could you really get embarrassed? You’re the one who eats the most."
"It’s just too delicious, I couldn’t resist. Next ti I co, I’ll definitely bring gifts."
"Haha, next ti I won’t bring you along."
"Captain, how can you say that? I have to co with you next ti. I’m here to protect you."
"You can’t beat . How can you protect ?"
"I might not be able to beat you, but others are no match for ."
The two bantered while progressing rapidly, determined to bring gifts next ti, as it did feel rather embarrassing.
But you can’t bla yourself either, it was an unexpected situation.
Yang Zhongyi thought of Jing Chu, his heart burning; she was just too appealing to him. It’s definitely her.
But Brother Han was right; I must tell the old man. I’m not agreeing to any other arrangents. If the family doesn’t agree, I would stay single for life.
After sending Yang Zhongyi off, everyone sat back down.
"Tomorrow, the three of us will go up the mountain," Han Xiangjun said.
"Three people is too few. Bring Guodong and Chaoyang with you," Old Yang still felt disdainful of Han Xiangjun. He’s all talk and no action, can’t do anything.
"By the way, Xiao Wei, which of your two apprentices do you plan to let co with ? I think Chaoyang is pretty good, if trained well, can be taught."
"I haven’t asked yet. I actually want Xiang Dong to go; Xiang Dong is better at preserving things. Plus, with you around, I’m at ease. I’ll keep Chaoyang by my side to help out."
Old Yang didn’t take part in this matter, just sat on the side eating peanuts.
"You should actually let Chaoyang go out so you have peace of mind about the outside affairs."
"Not yet; he’s experienced too little. Keep him by my side for so teaching for now."
In the afternoon, Wei Kaiyun went to find Li Yungui.
"Xiao Wei, I was just about to find you. Xue’er told that Lv Zhiqing wants to transfer here?"
"Hmm, Old Yang’s wife and her brother and sister will co together."
"Alright, I’ll go discuss with Wang Shulin. By the way, what did you want to see about?"
"I just wanted to ask about you and Chaoyang’s thoughts. Old Han is leaving; does Chaoyang want to go?"
Li Yungui sighed, "I actually hope Chaoyang doesn’t go; he’s still too young. Let him stay by your side and learn for a few more years."
Wei Kaiyun was very pleased with Li Yungui’s words; he’s an understanding person.
"Still, call Chaoyang over and ask him. Once it’s decided, we can arrange it."
"Alright, I’ll go call him."
Chaoyang ca in, saw Wei Kaiyun, and greeted him with a smile.
"Chaoyang, do you want to go to the Capital?"
"Master, I’ll follow your guidance. I feel my thoughts are probably wrong; I’m still immature in my thinking. I’ve considered the question, and whether to go or not doesn’t matter.
I feel I should focus on learning a bit more."
"What’s Xiang Dong’s thoughts?"
"He probably wants to go."
"You’re not giving way to him, are you?" Wei Kaiyun asked.
Chaoyang shook his head, "I’m not that selfless; I genuinely don’t mind. I’ll follow Master’s arrangents; you will make arrangents best suited for ."
"Alright, then you stay; the matters at ho will grow, so let Xiang Dong go, and you go call him over so I can hear their father and son’s thoughts."
"Okay, I’ll go call him now."
"Xiao Wei, aren’t Xiang Dong and Chaoyang too young?"
"That’s okay, Old Han will be there; no worries."
In a short while, Li Yunqiang and Xiang Dong ca over.
Wei Kaiyun asked Xiang Dong directly, "Do you want to go to the Capital?"
Xiang Dong was unsure; he really wanted to go and had asked Chaoyang, but Chaoyang hadn’t said much.
With everyone at Second Uncle’s house watching him, he wasn’t sure how to respond. But procrastinating wasn’t good either, so he clenched his teeth, "Master, I want to go."
"Accountant Li, what’s your thoughts?"
Li Yunqiang smiled, "I do want to let the child go out and see. Either him or Chaoyang could go."
Wei Kaiyun nodded, "Then let Xiang Dong go; prepare yourself, and leave with Old Han on the fifteenth of the first month."
"Thank you, Master." Xiang Dong sneaked a glance at Chaoyang but didn’t see how he felt.
Wei Kaiyun nodded, "So it’s ten people going. Village Chief Li, ask the villagers. It’s not short-term; it’ll take at least a year to co back. They all have families; ensure they’re okay with it, we’ll decide the day after tomorrow."
"Xiao Wei, I think they don’t want to go; they have elders, wives, and children at ho. Being away for too long isn’t realistic."
"Fine, I’ll ask Shuanzi later.
Xiang Dong, accompany tonight; you’re familiar with the villagers. You and those eleven must get acquainted promptly."
Wei Kaiyun wanted to arrange it quickly so others could plan their matters too; Shuanzi and the other ten might not all want to go.
"By the way, Old Yang, are we going up the mountain tomorrow? Are you both going?"
"We’re going." Chaoyang imdiately nodded with a smile. This is a good opportunity.
Xiang Dong nodded as well; of course he wanted to go up the mountain.
"Xiao Wei, should people from the village go too? You don’t have enough people; it’s not safe."
Wei Kaiyun shook his head, "No need. If the village wants to go, they go on their own, we’re enough."
Li Yungui didn’t persuade further, "Xiao Wei, after you return, we’ll go once too. Will you go again then?"
"Sure, I’ll go again then." After saying this, he left, as everything was arranged, allowing him to assuredly accompany his wife and children.
"Xiao Wei, I’m going to your place to ride the bike."
"Alright."
"Second Brother, where are you going?"
"Xue’er told Lv Zhiqing and Old Yang’s wife and siblings want to co to our village; I have to go discuss with Wang Shulin. Accepting the four can reduce needing four other educated youths.
I’m just worried Wang Shulin won’t agree, as the Lv Family siblings are honest people, and no one wants troublemakers.
On the twenty-fifth, I have to go to the township to pick up the educated youths; can’t get out of it this ti."
Li Yungui sighed after speaking, put on his coat, and left.
Now only the three of them were left in the house, "Chaoyang, you can’t go to the Capital, make sure there are no hard feelings." Li Yunqiang said earnestly.
Chaoyang smiled and nodded, "Fourth Uncle, you worry too much. I won’t overthink; I listen to Master’s arrangents."
