Chapter 41: Ch. 20 Part 1

" Uncle Tang and Aunty Meng Yao I was originally going to find some people to help me mill soybeans to make tofu and get the soybean milk... do you think you can do that work? " Xiao Ling asked in a leisurely tone and they both nodded and cupped their hands.

" Boss we can do it... please let it to us " Uncle Tang said respectfully.

" Then you’ll be paid two taels each... I’ll have Liang and Jia call for you when when it’s about three to four days left to open the restaurant " they both signed the agreement and also took a tael each as advance.

Xiao Ling swept over them and nodded in satisfaction at his arrangements but he still thought he needed a few people more... he drummed his fingers on the table thinking which made YanZhi arched his brows but ignored since he (YZ) knew absolutely nothing about what his little wife wanted.. he could probe into Xiao Ling’s soul to find out but he didn’t want to since he wanted Xiao Ling to be opened to him of his( XL) own account.

" Those who are disheartened shouldn’t be since all the positions I have today aren’t permanent... there’ll be promotion and demotion! If you don’t do your work properly you’ll be stripped off your position and that’s demotion. And if you do a good job you’ll be given a higher position and that’s promotion... so you all should work hard because anyone can be promoted as well as demoted, it all depends on your hard work and loyalty to me and the restaurant. And they’d be bonuses which is when you do a good job and the shop earns more than intended, I can dash you all some silvers "

When Xiao Ling mentioned of demotion they felt very panic because none of them wanted to loose their positions which were too good.. but their spirit returned when they heard about the promotions and the bonuses making them all cupped and thanked Xiao Ling honestly.

" That’s all for today.. you all can go back now, grab a copy of the contracts you signed and go rest for the day and the next.. from the day after tomorrow you’re all going to start practicing seriously and I don’t entertain those who are lazy, disloyal, betrayals, backstabbers and those who like complaining. They nodded in understanding and went for the copy of their signed contracts before walking out of the house with smiles and feeling refreshed in the hot sun. Xiao Ling sighed as he finally got time to relax and rest for a bit.

" You look tired... do you want to go in and rest for a bit? " YanZhi asked as he looked at Xiao Ling’s tired face thinking he should reconsider about letting Xiao Ling work.. Xiao Ling shook his head.

" No I’m alright.. I’ll be fine after taking some cold water, by the way Xiong Gong let’s call Yue and the kids to finish up the food here " YanZhi agreed with him before he went into the kitchen and put ice cubes into a cup and poured water over it before drinking to cool and moist his dry throat which was dried up for talking long... after he called Yue and the rest over to eat and rest even though it wasn’t yet for lunch he thought the kids must be exhausted and hungry from the training.

YanZhi decided to test the Lu’s and see whether they had talent for martial... he had them formed a straight line then he stood in front facing them as Yue and Xiao Ling sat there with their undivided attention on YanZhi.

" I’m going to show you a ten set technique only once, then you’ll all do it after " YanZhi said and turned his back to them so they could see it in a good angle and the right position

" Yes master! " they said excited and YanZhi performed the technique... after he turned to them and asked them to do what he did... but none of them got it right. Lixin got five out of ten with bits of mistakes and a very slow pace, Shuchang got three out of ten with bits of mistakes and slow pace too and Xiao Mi and Lan Fen got one out of ten which made YanZhi sighed and shook his head.

" Yue did you watch when I was performing the technique? " YanZhi asked and Yue got up from her chair, cupped her hands respectfully and responded.

" Yes master, your disciple watched you when you displayed the technique " YanZhi nod to her reply.

" Come and show it to them " Yue walked to stand in the line as the Lu’s with her figure insight of them, she displayed the technique just like YanZhi did with no mistake and the right pace after she cupped her hands.

" master your disciple is done " she said and stood still waiting for further instructions.

" You’ll be in charge of them until Lin is out of seclusion training... from now on everyday you’ll have them practice horse stances for two hours and the technique for three hours " YanZhi ordered and Yue along with the Lu’s cupped their hands respectfully.

" Yes master... your disciples will follow master’s instructions " YanZhi was about to retreat and let them practice when he suddenly felt hot gaze on him, he turned and his gaze met with that of Xiao Ling who was watching them with unquivering eyes as if they were asking and pleading to be called forth... he knew Xiao Ling still hasn’t given up yet although he told him to focus on cultivation. YanZhi sighed and shook his head before he smiled at him.

" Did you want to perform the technique too? " Xiao Ling quickly nod his head like a lizard which made YanZhi laughed.

" Okay come and show me what you can do " Xiao Ling got up from the chair and walked over to them in hurry.. he took his stance and carefully displayed the technique step by step... after he was done he had a bright smile on his face making the rest stunned and YanZhi proud of him. Xiao Long displayed the technique exactly just like how YanZhi did and Yue without any mistakes, but the only thing was the pace which was a bit slower than the original pace.. but all the same he did better than the Lu’s being the first time for all of them seeing the technique.

" Little wife really has talents " YanZhi said as he walked to him and stood closer to him with their face almost touching which made Xiao Ling blushed, YanZhi bend his knees and use them to positioned Xiao Ling’s legs in a stance and Xiao Ling stayed as he was put before straighting himself up. He took both Xiao Ling’s hands and pressed their palms together.

" Follow me " he whispered softly before he began to move leading Xiao Ling as they started the technique slowly... and repeating it over three times and when Xiao Ling got used to being led by Yanzhi and letting himself calm and free of the outside world just thinking of the two of them alone in a quiet place with no disturbances, YanZhi quickened the pace and he followed along freely as their actions were like the calm waters flowing freely and the calm breeze forming around them.

YanZhi added more actions into the ten set technique turning it to a twenty to thirty set technique and they moved along with each other in a very quick pace... they repeat the technique after it ends without rest or any thoughts, it was as if they both knew the same technique and they were in sync. Yue who had seen her master practice techniques several times whenever he was creating one and she thought it was beautiful... but seeing her master and mistress’s action flow like this she was so stunned that she stopped breathing for a few minutes scared that her breath might disturb them. Her attention was solemnly on them not taking her eyes of or blink for fear she might miss something out...

And the Lu’s being their first time seeing a martial artist practice didn’t know what to do or what to think, they felt what YanZhi and Xiao Ling were doing was out of this world... YanZhi slowly let go of Xiao Ling when they started the set over again but Xiao Ling didn’t weaver and continued with it alone as if YanZhi hadn’t let go.. he finished the set in the same pace they two of them practice and without any mistake, perfectly finishing it. He stood still when he was done and stared at YanZhi as YanZhi’s gaze was also focused on him staring into each other’s eyes as if time had stopped for them... Xiao Ling took two steps forward reaching where YanZhi stood, he wrapped his arms around YanZhi’s neck and crushed his lips on YanZhi’s. YanZhi snaked his hands around his waist and pulled him closer as they opened their mouths letting each other’s tongue in and deepening the kiss... YanZhi lost control of himself making the disguised appearance he had on using his qi faded.
