Chapter 242: Chapter 238: The Schemes of the Little Wife! [-17 Updates]

——————

"What’s wrong?" Xie Jingchen instantly sensed that his wife Shanni was struggling to hide her astonishment, her expression somewhat awkward.

"Wood..." In fact, Shanni didn’t know how to tell her own husband that she had experienced the supernatural.

Then, she had to reluctantly accept that her very existence was already quite supernatural, and any other bizarre incident couldn’t compare to her ’supernatural’ self!

"According to the old monks in this monastery, this peach blossom has been here for sixty or seventy years..."

"Oh..." Shanni shrugged indifferently, "Then this peach tree has really held on for a long time. A regular peach tree would be good if it could live for twenty or thirty years... This guy, actually might have lived for sixty or seventy years, er, well, it’s over a hundred years now, it’s really very ’holy’!"

Hearing his wife’s troubled tone, Xie Jingchen wrapped his arms around her and explained:

"Unfortunately, though, despite how beautifully this old peach tree blooms, the fruit it bears is really bitter, and even if you ferment it into fruit wine, it tastes sour and stinky, and is simply undrinkable."

"That really is a pity..." Shanni nodded, the painful clamor of the peach tree in her ears... No wonder the peaches it bore were bitter!

"Right, what’s the deal with that legend?" Knowing well that the Holy Peach Tree bore bitter fruit, why would such a beautiful legend still be passed around!

"It’s said that the peaches weren’t like this before, that they began to change their taste over the past decade or so." Xie Jingchen had made a point of asking his colleagues for some background information, so he could properly bring his family and wife here.

So, this little question, he could still answer.

"Alright... Since it’s bitter, then let’s go. We should check on Dad and Mom. After all, this place is quite big, and with only our youngest taking care of them, being an old person with children, I’m a bit worried."

It’s just too noisy around her ears, she needs to escape.

"Sure." Xie Jingchen saw his wife’s furrowed brows and her face filled with worry, and immediately let her take the lead. Truthfully, being away for too long, he also feared his little sister could not manage. The elders were manageable, but kids are naturally curious.

If they spotted something novel and really started wandering off, Xie Jingzi on her own definitely couldn’t keep up.

"Brother Chen, are we going to have a vegetarian meal at the monastery for lunch?"

"It’s the New Year, we won’t be eating vegetarian. Let’s go offer some peace incense later, and then head down the mountain for a meal. Afterward, I’ll take you guys to the county town’s supply and sales cooperative to buy some clothes and fabric?"

"Ah, can we buy separately from Dad and Mom?" Shanni asked after hearing this, pondering for a moment and then gently asking him with her lips tightly sealed.

After all, he’s the father of her child, and she still prefers to trust him.

"Sure, let’s have the little sister continue to accompany Dad and Mom. Whatever you want to buy, I’ll accompany you."

"Mm!" Shanni nodded, and her face broke into a happy smile.

"By the way, did you find a school for little sister?" She remembered that after she went to sleep yesterday afternoon, he had also left.

"Yes, after we have lunch and finish our shopping, if there’s still time, let’s visit that school, we can also check out some houses. Chen Dalang has a relative who’s a broker in the county town, he’s very familiar with the area here, we can have him negotiate a price if we see something we like."

"Mm. Brother Chen, we also need to find a safer place, exchange some black gold, do you have any connections for that?"

"Large quantity?" Zhang Shanni asked directly, and Xie Jingchen looked at his little wife with surprise. This black gold was definitely cheaper than the market price.

"Uh huh, it’s alright, it’s a gold necklace." Zhang Shanni casually glanced at the gold in the corner of the Space and saw that the necklace weighed more. She wanted to have a nice courtyard built, so she definitely couldn’t skimp on the money.

"Do you know the purity?"

"You can rest assured on that, the purity is definitely better than what’s on the market." How could the gold purity of this era compare with that of the future? Absolutely reliable!

"Black gold prices fluctuate greatly nowadays. If there’s a style, it doesn’t have to be sold as black gold." Xie Jingchen thought of the men’s gold ring his little wife had stuffed him with at the beginning. That style was very generous, and to sell it would fetch a much higher price than just selling it as gold.

"I’m not really sure about this. How about this, Brother Chen, when we get home, I’ll give it to you, and you can handle it. We don’t have much cash at home, and I was thinking after exchanging it, we would get a better courtyard, which would be great for either living or investment." Zhang Shanni said, panting and steadying herself on the man’s waist, after descending several small slopes, she felt a bit tired.

She hadn’t noticed it before, but as soon as she left the old peach tree area, she felt a depletion in her spiritual power. Not even halfway down the slope, she was tired enough to pant for breath!

That place was really very strange.

"Wife, no need to talk, feeling very tired?" Xie Jingchen was surprised. Since when had his wife’s physical condition gotten so poor? Could she have really been scared yesterday?

"It’s okay~~ just felt that place we just left, was so oppressive! I’ll be fine after a rest." This feeling was truly uncomfortable.

Zhang Shanni leaned most of her body weight on the man and took out a military water bottle from the man’s backpack behind him. Both of them took turns drinking a few sips of water, and she then felt somewhat better.

"Feeling better? Shall we get going?" Xie Jingchen saw Zhang Shanni slowly trying to stand up and quickly helped her up first.

"No, Brother Chen, look... that pretty boy, isn’t that our village’s Wang Junxuan??" To see Wang Junxuan here??

Although the two were neighboring provinces, Y county town was more than a thousand kilometers away from X county town, even just in a straight line!

Not to mention, Zhang Shanni didn’t have a good feeling about Wang Xiuzhen, and likewise, she had no fondness for the malicious-minded Wang Junxuan.

Previously, sitting down, she couldn’t see clearly, but now that she stood up and spread out her spiritual power, she immediately saw that person clearly — it was indeed Wang Junxuan!

Why is he here? Zhang Shanni clenched her little fists, looking like she wanted to punch someone, huffed angrily, and then muttered under her breath.

Beside her, Xie Jingchen, when Zhang Shanni’s spirit spread out, he immediately went on the alert. However, feeling Zhang Shanni’s aura, it was very similar to that strange ’Peeping’ sensation—

He quietly dropped his guard and instead embraced his wife closer, closing his eyes and trying to sense that peculiar ’Peeping’—

The aura, indeed, was the same.

"Damn it, it really is him!" Zhang Shanni cursed softly.

At this moment, her attention was on that pretty boy and she didn’t realize that her man could now ’sense’ her Spiritual Body!

One, Zhang Shanni has slowly learned to trust the man by her side, so she let down some of her natural defenses against him.

Additionally, Xie Jingchen had not sensed this ’Alien Sense’ for the first time. So, when he faced this feeling of being ’Peeped’ at again, he instinctively sensed that this might be his little wife’s special technique!

Suddenly hearing his wife’s gritted teeth, Xie Jingchen immediately narrowed his fierce tiger eyes and looked into the distance at that man and woman being pulled along one after the other.
