"What a coincidence!" Ge Junshan slapped his thigh: "Boss Chen, you don't need to go to Changling County. In the early days of the People's Republic of China, the counties and cities were re-divided, and Huangtong Township was assigned to our Fengping County."

My wife's family is from Huangtong Township. Whenever you want to go, I'll go with you!

Chen Guirong was extremely excited, not so much for finding people from his hometown, but because he had come here carrying his mother's last wish.

"Brother, may I... meet that master?"

Chen Guirong wants to see Ling Jiuyue, but that... is a bit difficult.

Ling Jiuyue didn't have a phone. Whenever something happened, she could only leave a note for Hongfu Restaurant and wait for Yang Xingzhi to deliver the goods into the city before relaying the message to her.

But lately, not only has Ling Jiuyue not entered the city, but Yang Xingzhi hasn't entered the city for several days either. The goods are all brought into the city by the driver and received by Yao Jianwen.

I wonder what this family is busy with.

Of course she was busy. Ling Jiuyue had found the right foundation and was ready to break ground.

Ling Guorong came to cause trouble again, saying that this day was not auspicious and would have a negative impact on their family, ruining their feng shui.

Ling Guosheng retorted angrily, "I'm just breaking ground on my own property, what feng shui have I ruined?"

Thank goodness we bought that piece of wasteland, otherwise, who knows how much trouble this younger brother would have caused.

Chen Hongmei jumped out: "How can it not have an impact? It's because your Ling Jiuyue broke off the engagement and brought bad luck back that I lost my grandson. Now you want to move the foundation. What will happen if my son can't find a wife?"

Sun Yulan was furious: "You still have the nerve to mention your grandson? If your son hadn't gone and messed around with the widow, would Xiao Song have lost her child?"

You neglect your own son, instigating the young couple to divorce, and you still have the nerve to blame our family for it. It's like blaming the foundation for a crooked house, or blaming the ancestral graves for a person's lack of ambition.

According to your shameless logic, I'd also say that the reason I haven't had a son all these years is because you shameless jinxes came back and cursed me!

The old lady of the Ling family came over, leaning on her cane: "Second son's wife, what do you mean? Are you saying that this old woman is blocking your son's way?"

Sun Yulan wasn't afraid of her at all: "Who's shameless? I'm talking about whoever brings home bastards from outside. It would be strange if it didn't ruin the feng shui!"

Ling Guorong hated being called a bastard more than anything: "Sun Yulan, say it again!"

Ling Guosheng picked up a hoe: "Third brother, who are you calling father?!"

Little Peach, who was following behind Ling Jiuyue, also quickly picked up a small hoe.

"Bad guy!"

A family war was about to break out.

Ling Jiuyue yelled at the top of her lungs, "Ling Jianping, are you dead or deaf?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Jianping, who was lying at home drinking and humming a tune, rushed over and grabbed Chen Hongmei and Ling Guorong.

"What are you doing?" He put his hands on his hips and stopped his parents. "Are you bored and have nothing better to do? Aren't you going to weed the fields? The pig manure in the pen is piled up so high that the pigs are almost drowning. Are you two blind?"

Alright, everyone's doing their own thing. Go back and get back to your own work. And you, my dear grandma, you can't stand not making a fuss, can you? You're so old, just calm down!

Chen Hongmei looked at her son in disbelief: "Jianping, what kind of spell has she cast on you to make you listen to her so much?"

"What are you saying!" Ling Jian said with a flat face and a serious expression.

"We're family, brothers and sisters, of course we all want things to get better and better. Arguing over every little thing only hurts the harmony and makes us a laughingstock. We're all getting on in years, shouldn't we be more sensible?"

magic potion?

That's the God of Wealth, the God of Wealth you can't offend. What does he know?

The villagers were astonished: "Huh, Ling Jianping can actually say something like that?"

"A family should have someone reasonable. The younger generation may not understand what happened back then, but the older generation knows it all too well. The old lady has wronged Guotai and Guosheng, and Ling Guorong still has the nerve to make a scene. If Old Master Ling knew, he'd probably be so angry he'd sit up in his coffin!"

"If you ask me, the Guotai and Guosheng brothers are too good-natured. Otherwise, someone else would have kicked their whole family out long ago!"

Having received praise from the village elders, Ling Jianping tossed his head, raised his chin, and said to Ling Guosheng:

"Second Uncle, build it however you want. If you don't have enough wood, just get some from my hillside. If anyone dares to cause trouble, just come and call me!"

Ling Guosheng was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but take a second look at his carefree nephew.

Sun Yulan glanced at Chen Hongmei, who was on the verge of a heart attack from anger, and smiled as she grabbed a handful of peanuts for Ling Jianping.

"Jianping, you're such a sensible kid, take it!"

Chen Hongmei turned around and went home with a livid face, slamming the door shut. That little bastard who sided with outsiders had infuriated her.

Ling Chun, busy cooking, asked her younger sister who was picking green beans, "Why does Ling Jianping listen to you?"

Ling Jiuyue chuckled: "Because he wants to make money!"

Ling Chun instructed her younger sister: "Don't get involved in his affairs. He's no good. Look at what he did to Xiao Song. She lost her child and he even forced her to divorce him."

I've noticed he's been getting really close to Cai Yinhua lately. Could it be he's thinking of marrying her?

Ling Jiuyue fetched water to wash the vegetables: "Don't worry, it was the right thing for Third Sister-in-law to divorce him. Good fortune is yet to come!"

"Xiao Ling!"

The tractor, carrying blue bricks, chugged into the village, and the tractor driver called out to Ling Jiuyue from afar.

Ling Jiuyue hurriedly took the cigarettes that Ling Guosheng had prepared earlier and handed them over: "Uncle Li, these are for you!"

Uncle Li parked the tractor and said, "Little He asked me to pass on a message to you. He says someone in the county is looking for you!"

Xiao He is Qin Shixiao's cousin-in-law and the second son-in-law of Qin's eldest aunt. He's the one who transported the chickens and ducks that Yang Xingzhi sent to the city recently.

Is someone looking for me?

Looks like we've got some work to do.

After counting the bricks, Yang Xingzhi wiped his sweat and said, "September, you should go to the city. Your sister and I are here at home. We were originally planning to go to the city to clean, but now we don't have time!"

"It's alright!" Ling Jiuyue set up a magic array in the courtyard to gather yang energy. Leaving it there for a while would allow the yin energy to dissipate completely, which would have a nourishing effect on the magnetic field of the people who lived there. She didn't mind delaying it for a little longer.

Ling Jiuyue brought pickled vegetables and chili sauce to her younger sister at school, and then went to the Qin family to ask if they needed to bring something for Qin Shixiao's younger sister, Qin Limin.

Qin's mother took out ten yuan and a pair of new cloth shoes for Ling Jiuyue, and also gave her a net bag of plums.

"Give her the money and shoes. You can eat the plums on the way. Your family is building a house, and the third son couldn't help either. This is our family's fault. We'll talk to your mother and the others about it later!"

Ling Jiuyue quickly said, "Auntie, you've already helped so much, you're too kind!"

The brick and tile factory was found with the help of Aunt Qin. The eldest and second eldest brothers of the Qin family would come to help whenever they had time, and their two sisters-in-law also came to help.

Sun Yulan and Ling Guosheng were touched, but also felt very embarrassed.

"We're not even married yet, and I'm already constantly troubling their family. It's really embarrassing!"
