The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 168 Home Feeling_1

Seeing the worry in Li Qing’s eyes, Yu Baishuo smiled gently. "It won’t come to that."

"Unless it was something with absolutely no prospects, and someone artificially created a very hot trend for it, that’s the only way a cliff-like drop might occur. Price fluctuations are normal in the market. Since you’ve already stepped in, you have to get used to its ups and downs."

Li Qing inwardly sighed with relief. If that was the case, then it’s somewhat relieving.

What he was worried about was a sudden significant drop in the price of Wenguan Leaves.

As for small fluctuations, he was already mentally prepared to handle them.

"Sister Yu, I’ll be leaving now," Li Qing said.

Yu Baishuo’s gaze shifted slightly, "What’s the hurry, play with Sister a little longer!"

Li Qing thought to himself, I want to play, but you don’t play what I want to, so what else can we play?

"Sister Yu, I’m not very good at jumping rope. I’m better at... taking off clothes and the like," Li Qing said deliberately.

Yu Baishuo gave Li Qing a sideways glance. "You little rascal, are you always thinking about that stuff?"

"Not at all! It’s just that whenever I see you, Sister Yu, I can’t help but think about that stuff." Li Qing glanced at Yu Baishuo’s ample bosom and said with a mischievous smile.

Yu Baishuo covered her mouth and chuckled softly, "Hurry up and go. Your mouth is getting sweeter and your thoughts are getting more twisted."

Joking aside, Li Qing really didn’t have much on his mind today.

After all, he had been thoroughly ’taken care of’ by Lü Zong that morning.

After leaving Yu Baishuo’s place, Li Qing clutched the five bundles of cash tightly in his bag and hailed a passing car.

In the past, fifty thousand yuan was an unimaginable fortune for Li Qing.

But now he had earned it.

Looking back, it all felt like a dream.

The Wenguan Forest that his grandfather left him, once thought to be of no use, had brought him his first pot of gold.

The thing about fate and opportunity, sometimes it really feels quite strange.

When he got home, Han Mei and Tian Yue’e were still there.

They had finished their work for the day and were busy tidying up the courtyard for Li Qing.

Ever since Han Mei and Tian Yue’e started coming over almost every day, the house has been changing for the better day by day.

It’s getting cleaner and tidier.

"Sister-in-law, Yue’er, what are you two up to?" Li Qing walked over and asked.

Removing her gloves, Han Mei wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "This place was empty anyway. I’m planning to build a fence around it, plant a couple of fruit trees inside, and some flowers and grass, it should look really nice in the summer."

Li Qing’s courtyard was quite large, and this southwest corner had always been used for storing miscellaneous things, so Han Mei decided to tidy it up.

"Sister-in-law really knows how to tidy up," Li Qing said happily.

The sister-in-law taking initiative to plan the house layout meant that she was starting to feel like the lady of the house.

This was a very good sign.

"Alright now, when you’re trying to butter me up, could you at least be considerate of someone else’s feelings?" Tian Yue’e said sarcastically. "You always fuss over me but compliment your sister-in-law. Why so biased? This idea was mine, you know, and I did most of the work."

"You’d better be careful, or I might not do it for you next time!"

"Could you stand it if I didn’t?" Han Mei teased with a laugh.

Tian Yue’e huffed, her eyebrows raised as she said, "What’s so unbearable? I’ve managed for several years already, what’s a few more? Anyway, I absolutely cannot indulge this habit of his."

Han Mei barely withheld her smile and nodded vigorously, "You definitely can’t indulge it. From today on, you won’t give in to him anymore, I’ll supervise."

Li Qing was suddenly taken aback.

How did this conversation turn as if it was really going to happen?

"Fine, I won’t give in, let him crave it to death!" Tian Yue’e declared with feigned arrogance.

"In that case, you should just move over and live with me from now on, so I can keep a closer watch," Han Mei suggested.

Tian Yue’e also froze.

Her large eyes blinked rapidly as she chuckled awkwardly, "I... it’s more convenient for me to live at my own place."

"That’s okay too, I’ll move in with you then, to completely prevent you from breaking your promise and messing around with Qingzi behind the scenes," Han Mei said.

Tian Yue’e was instantly dumbfounded.

"Sister-in-law, I was wrong," Tian Yue’e hugged Han Mei and cooed, "I admit I might... not be able to resist."

"I was just letting off steam with a few angry words earlier. Qingzi doesn’t compliment me, only you, which is all fine and dandy."

Han Mei’s face turned slightly red, and pushing Tian Yue’e away, she couldn’t help but laugh and scold, "I almost believed your nonsense."

Li Qing quietly breathed a sigh of relief, almost scared to death by the conversation.

But to think that just because he had withheld a single compliment, he nearly jeopardized his own happiness.

Han Mei looked at Tian Yue’e with disdain and urged, "Stop messing around. There’s still a lot of work to do. Qingzi, give us a hand and let’s get this fence up."

Li Qing and Tian Yue’e promptly sprang into action.

While working, Li Qing mentioned how he had just closed a business deal.

Han Mei and Tian Yue’e, who had been working vigorously, both came to a halt simultaneously.

"Qingzi, your skills are getting more impressive by the day!" Tian Yue’e’s eyes sparkled, and she couldn’t help but commend him.

"That almost sounds like an insult," Li Qing said, laughing and crying at the same time, "This time, I’m taking over a business that someone else had already set up. I’m only taking forty percent of the profits, but everything from manpower is ready-made. I just need to make sure coordination is handled properly."

"Getting forty percent of the profits for everything being ready-made is not little at all," Tian Yue’e commented.

Han Mei’s brows furrowed lightly and she asked, "Is this deal reliable?"

"It’s reliable, I’ve considered everything that needs to be considered and there’s a contract," Li Qing replied.

The sister-in-law is as meticulous as ever, happily minding the details even in her excitement.

"Now that you’ve taken on so much, can you manage all of it?" Han Mei inquired.

"Sister-in-law, Yue’er, that’s what I wanted to talk to you about," Li Qing said seriously, "I will definitely be very busy, so I am thinking of handing over Shi Liang’s matters to you two."

"Stop working," Han Mei said, taking off her gloves and setting them aside, "Yue’er, go cut some melon and steep some tea."

Tian Yue’e tilted her head and eyed Han Mei for a moment before grudgingly saying in a feigned tough tone, "All right, my dear sister-in-law."

Han Mei shook her head with a smile and tapped Li Qing’s forehead, "Just like you, always so lazy."

Looking at Han Mei in this moment, Li Qing suddenly got the impression of an ancient matriarch.

Commanding and outspoken.

But he couldn’t deny that having a woman like this at home made Li Qing feel especially secure.
