Everyone enjoyed the meal very much. It was already late at night, and it would take too much effort to clean the yard built for Cao Zhujian. So Lin Xi's family simply chose a few empty rooms in their own yard for them. After a quick clean, they took out clean sheets and bedding to make the rooms, and took out the ready-made toiletries. The old prime minister and his friends quickly washed up and went to bed.
On the second day, Lin Dayong really took Zhao Junhuan to Daya's house to catch sheep. Daya's parents refused to take any money and killed the sheep themselves and sent them to Lin Xi's house. Daya was also very enthusiastic to help Lin Xi's house cook mutton. Her cooking talent was really strong, and the taste of the mutton she made was even better than Cao's!
From that day on, Zhao Junhuan shamelessly hung around Daya!
When she trained with Lin Xi, he didn't do anything else but followed her in doing various training in the mountains and forests; when she cooked for her friends in the mountains, he would smile and light a fire for her in front of the stove; when she said with a stern face that they were not suitable, he said that she liked to cook and he liked to taste all kinds of delicious food, and they were a match made in heaven. In short, Zhao Junhuan followed a three-word strategy: stick to her!
On the other hand, Lin Kang and Yuan Yuan, except for going back to their respective homes to sleep at night, are inseparable during the day, whether they are training or handling village affairs. Their feelings heat up quickly, but they still abide by etiquette and do not engage in any out-of-character physical behavior.
Every day, the old prime minister would either stroll around the village with a birdcage and chat with the old people in the village, or carry a fishing rod and take his elderly friends to the river to fish. If he didn't go home at dinner time, his juniors would bring him food.
He lived a life like a god, and he said more than once that coming to Linshan Village was a wise choice. Occasionally, when he thought of his son and daughter-in-law who were far away in the capital, he would write letters to them to show off his carefree life in Linshan Village. This made Leng Linglong want to abandon Zhao Che and sneak to Linshan Village several times, but in the end she was defeated by Zhao Che's pitiful eyes.
Cao Zhu and Zhao Junle were the most interested in cultivation. They hung out with Lin Xi and the other kids every day, exchanging military strategies and tactics, learning martial arts, improving their cultivation, and also learning medical and poison techniques.
One year after General Cao settled in Linshan Village, he moved Zhao Yan'er's tomb to the mountain here and chose a tomb with excellent feng shui. His life in Linshan Village basically consisted of three things: helping his daughter with work, talking to his deceased wife in front of her tombstone, and practicing martial arts with little kids like Lin Xi!
Spring goes and autumn comes, the stars move, and before you know it, five years have passed in the blink of an eye!
In these five years, not only the Great Xia Dynasty, but other countries have undergone earth-shaking changes. The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the world is at peace!
This is also thanks to Lin Xi. In the first year of Jun Moyue's accession to the throne, the people were hungry and there were occasional unrest. The other countries were even worse off than Daxia. Lin Xi did another business with Jun Moyue through Manager Zhou, selling him the grain seeds, cotton seeds, and medicinal seeds in the boundary beads, and taught him how to build greenhouses and the techniques of growing vegetables.
Soon, Jun Moyue distributed these grain seeds, cotton seeds, and medicinal seeds to the people, and sent officials from all over the country to teach the people how to build greenhouses and grow vegetables for free.
After just one year, all the people of the Great Xia Dynasty were able to fill their stomachs. In the following years, people's lives became better and better. Every household lived in a house with large blue bricks and tiles, and almost every family had extra money!
Seeing the growing power of the Great Xia Dynasty, several other countries voluntarily became its vassal states. After Jun Moyue signed a series of treaties with several countries, he sold them the second-generation grain seeds, cotton seeds, and medicinal seeds. Since then, all the people in this small world have lived the life of their dreams: well-fed, warmly dressed, and free from war!
Countless merits befell Lin Xi, her cultivation level advanced by leaps and bounds, and the barrier of this small world became as thin as a cicada's wing!
In the fifth year of the Qingyuan Period, the tenth day of the third lunar month was a good day for marriage. The village of Linshan was decorated with lanterns and people's faces were beaming with joy as they prepared for the weddings of three couples in the village: Lin Kang and Yuanyuan, Daya and Zhao Junhuan, and Cao Zhu and Wang Shuer.
In the sixth year of the Qingyuan period, Chen Youfu, under the torture of the village chief with a stick, finally revealed the reason why he had refused to agree to his family's arrangement of marriage for the past few years: he had someone in his heart, and that person was Lin Xi's cousin Zhao Junle!
He felt that he was not worthy of her, so he had been silently staying by her side for the past few years and had never expressed his feelings to her. The village chief and his wife, who had always thought that their son had a hidden illness, finally breathed a sigh of relief and prepared generous gifts to propose marriage to Lin Xi's family!
To their surprise, the old prime minister and Zhao Junle agreed to the marriage right away!
Chen Youfu has been transformed over the years with Lin Xi. He has become highly skilled and handsome. Zhao Junle has had a good impression of him, but he is too self-conscious to break the mold. Zhao Junle is not in a hurry either, so she has not expressed her feelings to him. Anyway, the person she likes is under her nose every day and no one else can snatch him away!
In the seventh year of Qingyuan, Jun Moyue abdicated and the throne was inherited by the sixth prince. After the new emperor ascended the throne, the emperor disappeared and only left an edict: no matter which emperor is in power in the Great Xia Dynasty, he cannot revoke the privileges he granted to King Xiaoyao Lin Xi!
“Xiaoyao Sect? Was this founded by Lin Xi? Such a big change has happened here!”
At noon that day, two men arrived at the entrance of Linshan Village. The younger man looked at the village that had more than doubled in size, the bustling market outside the village, and the endless houses, and could not help muttering.
"Master, Miss Lin's reputation has spread far and wide in recent years. Slowly, more and more people have come here to settle down, hoping to get Miss Lin's guidance and enter the path of cultivation. Today, this place is so lively! You have been busy with court affairs in recent years, so this old servant did not report this!"
The older man said respectfully to the younger man.
"Jun Moxie? Uncle Zhou?"
Suddenly a clear voice was heard, and the man's eyes immediately shone with a bright light. He turned around and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see the person who had been haunting him standing not far away in a red dress. Seven years had passed, and her appearance had not changed at all!
Seeing that it was indeed Jun Moxie and Shopkeeper Zhou, Lin Xi strode up to them and asked with a smile, "Jun Moxie, why are you here? Don't you have to attend court to handle government affairs?"
The news of Jun Moyue's abdication has not yet reached Linshan Village!
