Chapter 157 Come on, let’s hurt each other!
Ye Peng's expression was uncertain. It was wishful thinking on his part. Back then, he personally felt his mother's life breath disappearing bit by bit. After he was dug out, he and his benefactor reburied his mother. How could his mother still be alive?
But he really hopes that his mother can survive. Unfortunately, it is just a hope, and God will not fulfill his wish.
"You guys leave my house first. I need to think about it for a few days."
After Fang Jing and his group left, Ye Peng immediately asked Ye Tang and Ye Ping'an: "Is it too early to go to the capital now? Our business is booming, and we can't do without people."
Ye Tang nodded: "It's a bit early. Many of the things I planted haven't grown yet. Spring is a good time to plant things. There are no peppers or strawberries in the capital. I don't know how long we will stay there. We must make full preparations before we go."
Ye Pingan agreed: "Sister is right, let's save some more things and go to the capital. While meeting our daily needs, we can also do business and make a fortune."
Xiao Jingxuan said: "You must bring more food, especially the things my wife grows. They are priceless treasures."
Ye Peng smiled: "Dad thinks so too. What happens in the capital has nothing to do with us. No matter how much I hate Ye Qianrou, I am not in a hurry. The most important thing is to farm well and do business well."
We have eaten all the strawberries from last year and are now waiting for this year’s. The number of peppers and strawberries planted this year is dozens of times more than last year.
Ye Tang chuckled: "Well, let's put it this way, Dad. You can go and tell the people in the Duke of Huguo's Mansion later to tell them to tell the old man to keep Ye Qianrou alive for a little longer, and wait until we are done before harvesting her."
Ye Peng immediately went to find Fang Jing and his group.
Fang Jing and his friends had just come out of Xiao's house and were thinking about finding a temporary place to stay in the village when Ye Peng chased them out.
"I can go to the capital, but not now. I have to farm and do business. I am very busy. I can only go to the capital after I finish all these. You go and tell the old man to try his best to keep Ye Qianrou, this scourge, alive until I go to harvest her. If keeping her will cause trouble, then don't keep her. Cut the weeds and get rid of them completely." Ye Peng told Fang Jing his thoughts.
Fang Jing asked happily: "When will you leave for the capital?"
Ye Peng glanced in the direction of Ziyan Mountain. It was late at night and he could not see anything over there, but Ye Peng's eyes were shining, as if he saw the Golden Mountain: "After the autumn harvest."
Fang Jing sent someone back to Beijing to deliver the message, and he and Wei Huan stayed behind with thirty people.
"Young Master, we have been ordered to take you to the capital. We will not go back until you leave. Don't worry, we will not disturb your normal life. You are the young master and you can order us to do anything." Fang Jing looked serious and persistent. He would not leave until he completed the task.
Ye Peng asked: "Is it okay for you to farm?"
Fang Jing and his group: “…???!!!”
In March, the grass and trees begin to sprout, and it is the right time for spring ploughing.
Fang Jing and Wei Huan, with thirty masters from the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, covered their mouths and noses with cloth, and carried loads of stinking manure to Ziyan Mountain.
"Master Fang, General Wei, we can't take it anymore. It stinks. The smell of manure... Ugh... It smells even stinkier than the enemy's blood... Ugh..."
Most of these guards were from military households, and most of them had never farmed before. It was also the first time for them to do such rough work as carrying manure.
A few of them had farmed before, but that was when they were children. After they grew up and became guards of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion, they never farmed again. Now they couldn't accept the hardship of farming all of a sudden.
Ye Peng walked past Fang Jing and the others with a load of manure on his shoulder. "It's just carrying manure, but you're so hesitant and you still have the nerve to call yourself a master! You can't even compare to a farmer like me!"
The killing power of these words was like a huge knife chopping down, making Fang Jing and others very dissatisfied.
"Who's wasting time? We are enjoying the beautiful mountains." Fang Jing quickly caught up with Ye Peng, and the others were not willing to fall behind.
Everyone was trying their best to compete with Ye Peng in carrying manure.
Unexpectedly, just as they caught up with Ye Peng, Ye Tang and Ye Ping'an came up from behind carrying manure. The brother and sister walked briskly and in unison, as if they were undergoing some kind of exercise.
"Why is the eldest lady here to fetch manure? How can the young lady of our Duke of Huguo's Mansion endure such dirty and bitter work?" Fang Jing felt extremely distressed.
Wei Huan was deeply saddened: "The young master is only fourteen years old, but he is so familiar with carrying manure. I don't know how much hardship he has endured in the past years!"
"Young Master, Young Miss, please stop. There's no need to pick. Let us pick. There are so many of us, we can pick everything." Someone tried to stop Ye Tang and Ye Ping'an.
Ye Tang and Ye Pingan looked up at them, and Ye Tang smiled and said, "We have been doing this kind of work since we were young, and we are used to it. Uncles, don't feel bad, this is how life is in the countryside."
As she spoke, she walked past Fang Jing and the others and went to the front, with Ye Pingan following closely behind her.
Fang Jing and others burst into tears.
"Look at the young lady and the young master, what kind of life are they leading!"
Ye Peng who was at the front: “…” You only know how to feel sorry for my children, but not for me. Am I not also carrying manure as a prince?
Fang Jing and the others couldn't stop Ye Tang and the other two, so they sped up the process of carrying manure, hoping to finish the work earlier so that the eldest lady and the young master wouldn't have to work.
"Where is the son-in-law? The eldest lady and the young master have worked so hard, why didn't the son-in-law come?" someone asked curiously, feeling unfair for Ye Tang. The son-in-law didn't know how to feel sorry for the eldest lady. He was a farmer's man, and he didn't know how to love the eldest lady well after marrying her. He should be careful that the eldest lady would dump him after returning to Beijing.
Fang Jing said, "Don't overthink it. The reason why the son-in-law didn't come is because he went to the clinic early in the morning. He is a doctor, and doctors are very busy."
There was no patient in Qingquan Clinic. Liu An was playing with poison out of boredom. Xiao Jingxuan was sleeping soundly on the recliner. No one knew what he was dreaming about, but he actually grinned.
Liu An came over with the pills, wanting to test them on mice. The effect of this new drug should be very miraculous. Suddenly, he saw Xiao Jingxuan grinning in his dream, with his mouth opened at just the right angle, so he stuffed the pill into his mouth.
Jamel Xiao was almost choked, and woke up instantly. He reached into his mouth and tried to pick out the pill, but Liu An quickly pinched his chin: "Disciple, you can't spit it out. This is a good thing that your master has made with great difficulty."
Xiao Jingxuan was forced to swallow the pill and slapped Liu An with one palm, sending Liu An flying.
Xiao Jingxuan hurriedly took out the antidote pill and swallowed it, then chased out to fight with Liu An and fed him poison.
Not long after, Liu An was lying on the ground, holding his throat, his face bruised and swollen: "Evil disciple, evil disciple, you even harmed your master, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
"Boom!"
Suddenly there was a loud thunder.
Liu An was so frightened that he jumped up and down, and before he could run into the house, his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
A bolt of lightning struck next to him, and a small hole instantly appeared on the ground.
Liu An's face was filled with fear: "Traitor, save your master quickly."
Not far from him, Xiao Jingxuan, whose body was as black as charcoal, spat out a mouthful of blood: "I can't save him. My disciple is also going through the tribulation."
