Clan Prosperity Starting With My Servant Girls-Chapter 276: Cultivating with the Five-Element Stones

When Lin Xuan Qi got back to the mansion, he was in time for a late lunch.

"Xue Cong, ask Auntie Sue to steam half of these seafood I got from the fish market," he said to Xue Cong when he entered the main hall.

Xue Cong was inside the main hall with some of the servants standing in front of her, nodding their heads.

And listening to her attentively.

She was giving them instructions on what they had to prepare for the coming autumn and winter.

When she heard him and glanced at what he was wearing, she got worried and said, "Make sure that Master Lin’s coat and dressing for autumn and winter are the highest priority."

Xue Cong got up from her seat, came up to him and asked softly, "Don’t you feel cold?"

He glanced down at what he was wearing and said, "Don’t worry. I’m fine."

Lin Xuan Qi figured that it must be due to his cultivation that he was still feeling warm in the autumn weather that had turned cold.

The Five-Element Qi with the fire heart was able to let him feel warm when required and it had enhanced his physique to deal with the lower temperature.

Xue Cong frowned and wanted to persuade him to dress more but kept quiet.

She didn’t want to become a nagging wife to him.

"Then, you better not complain to me when you catch a cold."

He shook his head at her and said, "Speak for yourself."

Lin Xuan Qi held onto her arms, took a step back and glanced at her.

She was also without a coat on and he said, "You better take care of yourself too."

"If not, how are you going to be able to bear me a child soon?"

He said to her teasingly.

And when she heard him, she lowered her head and said, "I will..."

Lin Xuan Qi hadn’t spoken to her about it before.

But now if he spoke of his wish, she knew what he wanted and she was more than happy to oblige.

Getting married, having childbirth and extending the family was a rite of passage for most in the Da Qian Dynasty.

And she was no stranger to that.

Lin Xuan Qi didn’t expect her to take his tease so seriously, but he went with it.

After all, he had settled down with a wife and concubine and it was appropriate for him to extend the clan with his bloodline. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

"I will make sure that the others and the servants stay warm too," Xue Cong nodded to him and she turned around to arrange for Auntie Sue to arrange his late lunch.

Lin Xuan Qi was pleased with what she had said.

It was fitting for her status as the head mistress of the family to think about the others and the servants.

He was feeling relieved that she was getting more comfortable in her role.

But as long as she remained the same to him, he didn’t mind at all.

That was required to manage and operate the household with it getting bigger.

Lin Xuan Qi sat down in his favorite chair facing the entrance of the main hall and had a sip of the tea while he waited for his lunch.

After a busy morning, it was time for him to catch a break.

...

When lunch was ready, he devoured it quickly.

The steamed prawns, fishes and clams that the fishmongers had given him were tasty, sweet and tender.

However, the kitchen had run out of the MSG that he had created from his experiment, and so, he missed the extra flavor from it.

"I must try to get the first batch produced as soon as possible," he sighed and said to himself when he finished his last bite of the food.

It wasn’t the best he could have, but it was filling.

With his stomach full, he glanced at the empty plates and stretched out his arms to relax himself.

There were still many things to be settled like retail stores, business model and distribution after the MSG production succeeded, but he didn’t want to think about it for now.

Lin Xuan Qi turned his focus to his cultivation instead.

He thought about it and summoned Zhi Yong and Lee He Song into the lab while he went back into his room.

It was time to test out the effect of the Five-Element Stone on them.

He opened one of the wooden chests and picked out two Five-Element Stones from it and headed to the lab.

...

Inside the lab, Zhi Yong was tidying up the lab and making sure things were clean, getting it ready for experiments if Lin Xuan Qi wanted to do so.

Thinking that Lin Xuan Qi was about to do more experiments.

Lee He Song on the other hand, stood by the side quietly.

He was pretty sure that Lin Xuan Qi hadn’t summoned them for any experiments.

It most likely had something to do with the stances he had them taught previously.

"Master Lin, me ready to help," Zhi Yong said enthusiastically when he saw Lin Xuan Qi enter the lab.

But Lin Xuan Qi smiled and shook his head at him instead.

Zhi Yong felt a tinge of disappointment, only to be surprised again.

"I have something else for you to do today." Lin Xuan Qi took out two stones that looked like crystals and were colorful.

They were unlike anything Zhi Yong had seen before.

"Master, this expensive? Me scared to break." Zhi Yong marveled at them with his wide open eyes and pointed at the two stones.

The two Five-Element Stones looked precious and he was afraid that he would break them.

But Lin Xuan Qi handed one over to him nonchalantly and said, "It’s special but it is to help you in the practice of the stances I’ve taught earlier."

He turned around and handed the other Five-Element Stone to Lee He Song.

It was Lee He Song’s turn to be surprised by it.

The Five-Element Stone looked similar to Spirit Stones for Lee He Song and he started to wonder if it was something with the same effect.

He was right about it.

When Lee He Song held the Five-Element Stone in his hands, he could immediately sense the special feeling he got when he took care of the Poison Fang Gang.

But whatever it was that was emitting out from the stone in his hands was far thicker than in the surroundings.

And the best part of it was that he didn’t have to be on his killing spree to sense it with the stone in his hands.

Lee He Song got excited with the thought of what it meant for him.

Cultivation and Longevity.

Something that so many would kill and die for in the Da Qian Dynasty.
