The Blessed

Overnight, news that Ling Jingxuan’s man was the God of War Prince Sheng spread through the whole village. And those villagers who had already been afraid of Ling Jingxuan only feared of him more. That’s the prince! Forget about his was the invincible guardian angel of the whole Qing Kingdom who had the highest position in all civilians’ heart, only his background would make them flinch.

Of course, only those holding some ill intentions or those who were distanced from them would be afraid, those who were close to Ling Jingxuan like Zhao &Han couple and Old Wang didn’t feel any difference. Actually they had already guessed that Yan Shengrui’s background wouldn’t be simple, it was just no one spoke it out. As long as Yan Shengrui and Ling Jingxuan didn’t change, they also wouldn’t change. Maybe in others’ eyes, they were thick-skinned trying to suck up to someone out of their league, but it was OK as long as they didn’t think it that way. A sentence Ling Jingxuan often said had great influence on them—as long as they live happily, why cares about what others’ say?

On the morning of the second day after Ling Jingxuan's delivery, many people sent their congratulatory gifts, including Shopkeeper Zhang in the town and Shopkeeper Wang from the county, because Xinyuan and Baiyunge had come to the Ling Village every day to fetch goods and they were well-informed. Only in the afternoon, Zhang Qing, who came back from the business trip in the prefecture, Ling Jinghan who had just finished his autumn exams and even had no time to check the results came back in a hurry with Yuan Shaoqi.

"Oh, Shengrui, is this little thing giving me a despising look?"

The baby bed in the room had been set up, a group of people around the bed dandled the tiny bun sound sleeping. Suddenly, Zeng Shaoqing snapped and stared at the tiny bun who had just closed his eyes to fall asleep again angrily. He swore that he didn’t see it wrong, the tiny bun really threw him a despising eye. He just poked his little face gently. Did he need to do that?

"Who let you touch him with your rough hand?"

After taking full rest and feeling refreshed, Yan Shengrui finally saw his little wrinkled son, although having made the self-reflection joke, he still cared about his son. See? As Zeng Shaoqing complained, he instantly argued back, using sarcasm.

"Eh...you son-con!"

Zeng Shaoqing darkened his face. Is he that Yan Shengrui he knew?

“It's better than you having no son at all!”

"Haha..."

As those words came out, Zeng Shaoqing directly shrank into a corner. People of the whole room laughed. Ling Jinghan stretched out a hand to touch his little nephew’s face, then looked up at his big brother leaning against the bed, “You know what, this kiddo is a chickabiddy. Since I came back, he hasn’t even cried once, only just whimpered one or two when feeling hungry just now.”

After he said that, everyone noticed this point. Then they recalled that when he was just born, Zhao Shan gave him a slap in the butts, he just made a cry and stopped. Wouldn’t the kid be too well-behaving?

"Hehe...I have given him a full body check, should be no problem, the newborn child's brain is still developing, it’s normal that he sleeps more and cries less.”

Knowing what they were worried about, Ling Jingxuan explained with a faint smile, in fact, thinking carefully, he had also ever suspected if this kid was the reincarnation of the God of Sleep. Since he had been pregnant with him, he started to have narcolepsy. See? After he was born, he became the one who had narcolepsy.

"What nonsense are you talking about? My little grandson is so cute. Loo! This little face looks much like our Jingxuan."

Lady Wang threw him a hard stare, whose eyes looking at the tiny bun were full of tenderness. But following their eyes to see, they got stoned. Where does he look like Ling Jingxuan? So wrinkled all over! Especially Yan Shengrui. He complained in the heart. Since when his Jingxuan has become that wrinkled like some pickles?

"Hehe…babies are all like this when born. After a few days when his little face spread, it must be very pretty.”

Knowing what they were thinking, Wang Jinyu smiled while shaking her head helplessly, then couldn’t help stretching out a hand to touch the tiny bun. And Ling Wen who was guarding aside instantly held his head high proudly, “Yeah, my little brother should be prettier than daddy.”

"I also want to look like daddy."

Ling Wu excitedly raised his hand, then Zeng Shaoqing beside found it amused and poked his head, "Forget about that, you can only look like your father in this life."

"Haha..."

The crowd couldn't help but burst out laughing again. As people had enough fun, Ling Jingxuan asked the nanny to take the kid away. Knowing that they should have something to talk about, Ling Chenglong, his wife and the old couple under the support of Wang Jinyu made an excuse and left. Their kids were all adults and knew what they were doing, so there was no need for them to stay.

In the end, only Yan Shengrui, Ling Jingxuan, Zeng Shaoqing, Ling Jinghan, Yuan Shaoqi, Ling Jingpeng, Ye Ruyun, Zhang Qing, Zhang Yang, Zhao&Han couple, Ling Yun and Song Shuisheng stayed. The three little buns also left obediently with Lady Wang and others.

"How do you want those people in the warehouse to die?"

A few moments later, Yan Shengrui broke the silence. They even had the balls trying to hurt his wife. Death would be the simplest for them! But he respected his wife’s opinion. Whether to dismember them or skin them or what, he’d like to do it himself!

"Well...I remember Ling Jingwei said yesterday that he is the son-in-law of the Gui family, right? Last time, you said you were going to submit the memorials about how all officials of Gui family embezzled money and accepted bribes to that one in the palace. Why does it seem to have no influence on them at all?”

The smile on Ling Jingxuan’s face instantly disappeared. Yesterday, although he was in great labor pains, he didn’t miss seeing or hearing anything, including Ling Jingwei trying to kill his dad and how he threatened them. He didn’t step into things in the court much, so he was not quite clear about it. He only knew that all branches of Xinyue Gold Shop in the two prefectures under Gui family were at the edge of going bankrupt under the pressure of their Baiyunge. Next, he planned to suppress them in larger areas, letting the Gui family’s economic lifeline paralyzed.
