Xiao Ling: "Please give me a castle" 🥺🥺🥺

Yanzhi: "Give little wife a castle!!! Preferably a spaceship!!!!" ⚔️⚔️⚔️

Xiao Ling: "Grandma Shen don’t bother." he quickly stopped her. "Actually we don’t need them, you just do whatever you want with them. We will be going now." They left as soon as his words ended not waiting for her to reply.

....

In The Jun Family’s New Brick House

Because they now had a lot of money they no longer farmed themselves and bought slaves to do the farming and work in the house. They themselves are left to laze about and do whatever they want, so Yanzhi and Xiao Ling arriving there met all of them at home. Yanzhi called everyone to discuss except Xiao Ling and Chuntao who excused themselves to talk privately. Standing with a warm smile on her face Chuntao called politely and happily. "Eldest sister-in-law, how are you?" she asked with concerns, but Xiao Ling right now who wanted to have a very serious conversation with her didn’t give her a good face. Seeing such Chuntao began to be nervous. "Chuntao I’ll ask you something, you make sure to answer me honestly okay." Xiao Ling said coldly with seriousness in his voice. Chuntao nodded very timidly "O-okay, I’ll answer whatever eldest sister-in-law asks."

Xiao Ling: "Do you have anyone you’re seeing right now?"

He asked straight forward making Chuntao blushed embarrassedly and confused. Seeing her face which looked horrible and terrified it occured onto him that in this world people can’t date each other casually. "I mean do you have anyone you like and will want to marry?" he quickly rephrased his question just in time to prevent her from crying. She shook her head timidly and shyly. "Okay that’s good. In my belly are mine and Xiang gong’s offsprings who will soon be born into the world, and the thing is that you’re fated to one of them." Xiao Ling not wanting to say much just explained in a few words. Chuntao was very confused but what mattered to her the most was hearing that Xiao Ling is pregnant. "Eldest sister-in-law congratulations! You said children, are they many?" she was very happy and overwhelmed. "En. We’ll talk about that later. What I want to say is very important as it concerns your future, so listen to me well." he cut her off making her very skeptical and more confused, but nevertheless she still gave him her attention. "What I mean by you have fate with one of them is that, he is to be your betrothed and other half. Xiang gong can read feng shui so he was able to read your fates, he gave you protection charm bracelet right, this was the reason behind it." Chuntao unconsciously touched the bracelet in her hand as he said that. "So you mean the child of eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law is my destined husband?" she asked. "Yes. That’s why Xiang gong and I are here today, because we’re here for your consent. You can choose to marry someone else, we’re not forcing you. Once you do that your fate with our child will be severed and a new fate will be established in place of that, the decision is up to you to decide."

Chuntao: "I agree!"

As soon as his words ended she said with firmed eyes. "What?" Xiao Ling was slightly stunned "won’t you even think about it?" he didn’t want her to make a decision in hothead or maybe in wanting to repay. "Aren’t you taking me away once I agree?" she asked her eyes still firm. "Yes, that’s the plan. Once you agree we plan on buying you from the here and you’ll never return. So think it throughly." he advised. "I’ve thought it through, it’s better to follow eldest brother than stay here. Because anyway I wouldn’t have the right to choose who to be betrothed to and if they wished it they will just sell me to some rich old man and it’ll be alright in our law since the parents have the right to decide their childrens marriage. So I agree." her resolution was very firm and he could see it in her eyes. "There’s no chance to regret it in the future because I won’t give you the chance to." he warned threateningly but her eyes still stayed firmed "I won’t regret it!" "Okay. Let’s go out, you leave everything to Xiang gong and I."

They returned back to the hall where everyone sat in waiting, the only one who wasn’t present was Xiangzhi who had returned back to school. Seeing the looks on their faces Xiao Ling could tell that Yanzhi had already stated their purpose to them and had already offered them a price, the scent of greed filled the entire hall. "How much?" he asked going to take a seat beside Yanzhi. "100 taels." Yanzhi simply stated. "Isn’t it too much? Even if they married her to a rich man at most the bride price to be paid is 20 taels." Xiao Ling said bitterly, his face looking ugly as if loosing the money will pain him. "What nonsense are you saying? 100 taels is hundred taels where is it your turn to tell what he can do with his money?" Grandma Jun looked at him angrily wanting to tear his mouth apart. Xiao Ling sneered. ’Isn’t she your child too, how can you be so willing to sell her?! Black heartened people!’

"Grandma, raising her is also going to cost us, and also what if after we painstakingly raise her very well and you come to us to take her back what should we do about our 100 taels then? Saving 100 taels isn’t a small matter at all!" he argued. "We won’t take her back, you take her with you and just pay us the money we used in raising her, we just ask for 100 taels and we’ll write a contract of breaking relationship with her for you!" Du shi interjected, she didn’t care about breaking the relationship with Chuntao. To them raising Chuntao was just wasting money, just as Chuntao thought they were even looking for someone to sell her off and luckily for her Yanzhi and Xiao Ling came first, offering such huge amount why would they not give her to him? It was Yanzhi that no matter what they’d never break off relationship with him. But for Chuntao the silvers were more important than her. "Second go and call the village head over." Father Jun also spoke. Xiao Ling smiled, that was what he wanted. With the contract of completely breaking off relationship they won’t come and claim his in-laws when his child marries Chuntao in the future!

Soon the village head was called over, and once he heard the ins and outs he watched the Jun family head with scrutiny. He thought how stupid can a person be and never learn. But he made no comment to the matter and helped them write the contract in three, they all stamped and each took a copy. Xiao Ling held their copy in hand and smiling brightly and the Jun family held the silvers in hand and were also smiling brightly, what a happy cooperation, they both thought. "Chuntao, you live a good life with eldest brother okay." Xiangyi said bitterly. "Yes, Chuntao you’re better off with eldest brother. Once we’re able to pass the requirements for being accepted as disciples we’ll be able to see you always okay. Before then take care of yourself" Xiangli said sadly, he was in self blame for not being able to help his younger sister, but thankfully it was the eldest brother she’s going with. "En." Chuntao nodded with no expression on her face. Looking at her family with happy faces after selling her off, apart from the feeling of melancholy for a moment they was nothing more. There was no feeling of nostalgia or wanting to think of the past. She turned to Yanzhi and Xiao Ling "I’ll go and pack my things." she informed wanting their approval. "No need, whatever you need is available. Let’s go." Yanzhi said stoping her, he didn’t want to stay for anymore minute with the Jun family. They left but the Jun family never even noticed and didn’t care, once walking out of the Jun family house, her love for them had completely died out never to see the light again.

They said a few words to the village head before heading to TianXin mountain. Once up the mountain to the sect Chuntao was left in bewilderment, she didn’t know that this was what her eldest brother’s sect looked like. It was just so beautiful and amazing. "Here, your deeds, you keep them. You now belong to my family, never have thoughts of leaving or betraying the family. I’m willing to give you a chance, so use it well." Yanzhi passed her the contract, although she didn’t well understood his words but she was filled with gratitude. Tears pooled in her eyes "I’ll never think about leaving and I will never do anything to harm eldest brother." she solemnly promised. "Okay, okay, don’t cry anymore. Come, I’ll introduce you to the others and we’ll have a big celebration to welcome you." Xiao Ling said and grabbed her hand before she had time to be startled by his sudden action she found herself in the air!
