After listening to Lin Xiao's explanation, Li Yujuan's gloomy face improved a little. He coughed lightly and eased his mood:
"This method is not bad."
"Furthermore, if you master the salt-making skills for a period of time at night, Prince Qian can also earn extra money for a period of time. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"
This sentence touched Li Yujun's heart deeply, and he nodded with satisfaction:
"Boy Lin, you are indeed smart!"
Li Yujun exchanged a few more pleasantries and then left.
Looking at Li Yujun's retreating back, Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and murmured:
"You know what it means to accompany a king like a tiger. Neither of the two princes is a fuel-efficient lamp!"
Yu Xilin walked up to Lin Xiao apologetically and whispered:
"I'm sorry, Xiao Linzi, me"
Yu Xilin was about to explain, but was interrupted by Lin Xiao:
"I understand that you can't help yourself. You don't need to explain. I believe you."
Her voice was very soft, but every word fell into Yu Xilin's ears clearly, like a stone thrown into a calm lake.
"Thank you, Xiao Linzi."
Yu Xilin was deeply moved. It felt good to be understood and trusted by others!
That night, Yu Xilin completely lost sleep. He sat on the bed, Lin Xiao's voice echoed repeatedly in his mind. He was deeply grateful for her understanding, trust and kindness.
"How should I repay Xiao Linzi?"
This question has been lingering in Yu Xilin's mind for a long time and cannot be dispelled.
Lin Xiao also stayed awake all night.
She felt unprecedented fear and pressure about everything that happened today.
In the past, she confidently believed that she, a person from the future, could use her advanced knowledge to play with the Great Xia Dynasty, but now, she suddenly realized how insignificant she was in the face of power.
The power of rights is really powerful.
It was so big that she could hardly breathe.
It was so big that it made her a little scared.
It was so big that she was a little confused.
It was so big that she wanted to leave everything behind and escape from this world!
But where could she escape to?
The world is huge, but there is no place that can accommodate her, not to mention the person in her heart, she has no way to get rid of it!
"The boss."
Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin are not the only ones who have no intention of sleeping today?
Lan Lian, who was also tossing and turning, saw the lights on in Lin Xiao's house. She walked over and knocked on the door, calling out cautiously.
Hearing Lan Lian's voice, Lin Xiao jumped out of bed, walked over and opened the door.
Seeing Lin Xiao's bloodshot eyes, Lan Lian suddenly felt a little uneasy:
"Master, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"
Lin Xiao said as he gestured for Lan Lian to enter the room.
Lan Lian followed Lin Xiao in and closed the door.
"Are you worried about something?"
Lin Xiao poured a glass of water for Lan Lian.
Lan Lian took the tea cup, lowered her head, hesitated for a while, and then said:
"Head of the family, I have been married to you for almost half a year. I want to..."
"No, you don't want to!"
Before Lan Lian could finish speaking, Lin Xiao decisively interrupted her.
Lan Lian was stunned, raised her head and looked at Lin Xiao in surprise:
"Master, do you know what I want to say?"
Lin Xiao pulled her lips bitterly:
"I'm not stupid, I can naturally guess what you want to say, but"
Lin Xiao changed the subject:
"Lan Lian, do you know what giving birth to a child means to a woman?"
"Master, do you know that I want to have a child?"
Lan Lian felt that her man was a half-immortal and she could not hide all her thoughts from him.
"I see that you like Xiao Zhouzhou very much, so I know you want a baby, right?"
Lin Xiao looked at Lan Lian with a firm gaze, as if he had already understood Lan Lian's thoughts.
Lan Lian lowered her head in embarrassment:
"As the head of the family, I just want a child."
"Lan Lian, I know you want a child, but do you know what having a child means to a woman?"
Lin Xiao repeated his question again.
"Women are used to carry on the family line. A woman who cannot give birth to children is incomplete."
Lan Lian lowered her head and answered softly.
After hearing her words, Lin Xiao's face instantly sank:
"Lan Lian, remember, women are not used to carry on the family line. Women are independent individuals and can choose their own lifestyle."
"But."
Lan Lian didn't dare to look directly into Lin Xiao's eyes, so she muttered softly:
"But, I want to give birth to a child for you."
"When you give birth to a child, your body will be out of shape, you will have endless nights, and you will become ugly. Are you still willing to do this?"
Lin Xiao continued to be seductive. Her tone was very gentle, but it was like thunder in Lan Lian's ears. She suddenly raised her head and looked at Lin Xiao. It seemed that it was the first time she had seen her man look so serious:
"Yes! Of course I do! Giving birth is something a woman must experience!"
Lin Xiao looked at Lan Lian with firm eyes and raised the corners of her mouth slightly:
"But I don't want to."
"Why?!"
Lan Lian was stunned.
After a while, tears welled up in her eyes:
"Does the head of the family dislike Lan Lian?"
"of course not!"
Lin Xiao quickly shook his head:
"Why would I dislike you? I just think that a woman giving birth to a child is like wandering through the gates of hell. It's very hard, so I don't want you to take such a risk, I"
Lin Xiao stuttered a little and was hesitant to speak.
Lan Lian looked at her, tears bursting out of her eyes no longer able to hold back.
"Lan Lian, don't cry, I don't dislike you, really! If you really want a child, then adopt one. This will be good for both of us. If you think my suggestion is too ridiculous, then
After staying in the capital for a year, we can adopt a child and return to the village, so that it can be said to the outside world that it was born between us. Later, I will find a good man for you, and then you two will have another child..."
"I just want your baby!"
Lan Lian cried and interrupted Lin Xiao:
"Do you also want to give me to another man like Sister Yuyan? What are you doing for?"
"I hope that you all can have a good destination! I hope that they can give you the happiness that I cannot give you!"
Lin Xiao was anxious for a moment and shouted at Lan Lian.
"Haha, what a saying, 'I hope you all can find a good home'!"
Lan Lian suddenly laughed miserably:
"Master, you are a smart person, but you can't even see through this!"
She glanced at Lin Xiao sadly, and said in a cold tone:
"Don't you know what kind of person I, Lan Lian, am?!"
"Lan Lian..."
Lin Xiao opened her mouth, but found that nothing could come out.
"You are my good home!"
After saying this, Lan Lian ran out crying.
Watching Lan Lian leave, Lin Xiao felt melancholy in her heart.
She couldn't confess to Lan Lian the secret that she was born as a girl, so she had to choose to escape and hide Lan Lian because she didn't want Lan Lian to be hurt.
She knows that Lan Lian has always been a good girl!
