“Xiao He, what are you thinking?” Even if he could really help more, what difference would it make?
“Don’t talk to me about that. I never thought about helping more.” Su Yu looked at Wang Jinhe cautiously, expressing his discontent.
Wang Jinhe looked at Su Yu’s vigilant expression and couldn’t help but laugh, “Look at how cautious you are. Anyone would think I asked you to do something.”
“I just want to be with you, witness our son growing up, and in my spare time, help the emperor with things I can and want to do. That’s enough for me.” As for anything else, he had never considered it.
Wang Jinhe’s eyes carried a gentle smile. She never thought of making Su Yu enter officialdom.
She liked turning her head and seeing Su Yu behind her.
When there were tasks, Su Yu would come and help her.
She didn’t like being an official’s wife. She preferred dealing with vegetables and fruits in the fields.
“That’s good. We’ll be together.” Wang Jinhe didn’t insist that Su Yu must help the emperor. She just expressed her thoughts.
“Alright, after everything with the Xie family is settled, we’ll leave. As for these shops in the capital, we can leave them to Wan Feng and Shopkeeper Qian.” Wang Jinhe was not worried at all with Shopkeeper Qian in charge.
“Xiao He, will there be more fruits this year?”
“Yes, starting this year, we can also grow melons like cantaloupe.”
” Shopkeeper Qian will definitely be happy then,” Su Yu couldn’t help but smile.
Wang Jinhe had also met Shopkeeper Qian. Whenever she thought of him, she couldn’t help but chuckle.
” Shopkeeper Qian is working hard to earn money for you. You must treat him well and not bully him.” Wang Jinhe looked at Su Yu with concern.
Su Yu nodded with a smile, “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
While the Father and son were here, Wang Jinhe played with them for a while until Wan Feng returned. Only then did she leave with him.
Xiao Bao lay on Su Yu’s lap, watching Wang Jinhe’s departing figure, and said unhappily, “Daddy, my mommy left again. When will she finish being busy?”
Before, it was Su Yu who was busy non-stop, and now it was Wang Jinhe.
When will his parents have time to play with him together?
Su Yu lowered his head to look at Xiao Bao, “Now is when Mommy is busy. In a couple of days, she’ll be done, and we can wait for her here. Okay?”
Xiao Bao nodded repeatedly, “Okay, I like waiting for Mommy.”
Wang Jinhe didn’t return until the evening. She came back exhausted, but her spirits lifted instantly when she saw Su Yu and their son.
“Mommy, come quickly and have dinner.” Xiao Bao waved to Wang Jinhe excitedly.
Looking at the dishes on the table, Wang Jinhe frowned at the father and son, “You two haven’t eaten yet?”
Xiao Bao giggled and nodded, “I waited for Mommy to come back and have dinner with Daddy.”
Wang Jinhe wanted to say that they shouldn’t do this, but after a long day, coming home to someone waiting to eat together felt really good.
“Alright.”
After dinner and putting Xiao Bao to sleep, Su Yu hugged Wang Jinhe and asked, “Busy today?”
“Not exceptionally busy. Just took over some shops, and there’s a lot to deal with. With a few sincere servants, it’s a bit challenging when we need to take action ourselves.” Wang Jinhe casually remarked.
The acquired shops were generally manageable, but there was one steward who proved difficult. No matter what was said, he remained unyielding. This person had some ability, and Wang Jinhe didn’t want to lose such a talented individual.
Observing Wang Jinhe’s expression, Su Yu raised an eyebrow, “Need my help?”
Wang Jinhe glanced at Su Yu, “Not for now. If I still can’t manage later, I’ll let you help. I want to ask that person for assistance. It would be best if he could abandon the Xie family willingly.”
Of course, if the person wasn’t willing, she wouldn’t force him.
“Okay, I’ll listen to you. Have you had a busy day? Shouldn’t you rest now?” Su Yu supported her head, looking at Wang Jinhe.
“Alright.”
The next morning, when Su Yu woke up, Wang Jinhe was already preparing to leave.
“Going out so early today?” Su Yu frowned, a bit unhappy that she was leaving so early.
“Well, there are some matters to attend to today. I won’t be coming back for lunch. If you’re free, take Xiao Bao with you. If you’re busy, let Grandpa help take care of him.”
Speaking of Su Xi, Wang Jinhe suddenly remembered something, “Due to some issues, the family tree matter was delayed. Grandpa changed the time; is it approaching soon?”
“It’s in five days.”
Wang Jinhe considered the tasks at hand and said, “Five days should be enough.”
“In that case, I won’t go with you. I need to prepare for the family tree matter. There are quite a few people coming this time.” In the past, there wouldn’t have been so many people coming over. However, her status was different now, and many were looking to gain some benefits.
“Alright.”
Wang Jinhe went to the study of the Xie family.
Your family’s study is well-managed, with many books.
She really liked this shop.
“I’ve already said I won’t agree to your request.” Wang Jinhe hadn’t even had a chance to say anything when a voice came from inside.
Wang Jinhe wasn’t surprised at all by what the other person said; instead, she felt it was only natural.
“You won’t betray the Xie family because they saved you, am I right?” Wang Jinhe wasn’t angry and walked over to sit opposite the person.
The person across from her, upon hearing Wang Jinhe’s words, looked up at her, “Since you already know, you shouldn’t continue to come here.”
Wang Jinhe rested her chin on her hand and said with a half-smile, “I have a somewhat unpleasant trait; if there’s something I want, I must obtain it.”
“You…”
“How about I show you something, and then you can decide?” Wang Jinhe looked at the person across from her and asked earnestly.
“Alright, if I make the same decision after seeing it, you leave and don’t bring up this matter again.”
Wang Jinhe nodded with a smile, “Deal.”
Seeing Wang Jinhe’s smiling face, the person opposite her frowned. Was she really considering giving up, or was she genuinely this confident?
“Let Wan Feng show him.”
Wan Feng handed over a stack of things to the other person.
Taking the items from Wan Feng, the person looked at them seriously. When he finished looking, Tong Kong’s eyes narrowed.
“How is this possible?”
“Whether it’s real, I believe you can judge for yourself. Consider it for two days, and I’ll come back after that.” Wang Jinhe stood up and left with Wan Feng.
After leaving the study, Wan Feng asked curiously, “Madam, you gave him the items directly. Aren’t you worried about what he might do?”
“He’s a proud person; if he’s made a bet with me, he won’t break it.” Wang Jinhe said confidently.
“In two days, we should be able to get the answer we want.” Wang Jinhe expressed her satisfaction.
Wan Feng remained silent. If what Madam said was true, then this matter had become interesting.
