After the meal, Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo went for a walk as usual.

  Fei Congjun was weak and went back to his room to rest after the meal.

  Fei Yuzhe wanted to keep an eye on him and also returned to his room.

  There were some books and scripts on the bookshelf in the guest room.

  Among them was Immortal Cultivation written by Xiao Hanzheng.

  Fei Yuzhe was originally bored so he decided to read it.

  Who knew that when he picked up the first book to pass time, but he couldn’t stop reading.

  Even Fei Congjun, who had taken a nap in the afternoon, drank some medicine but was not sleepy, took a book to read too.

  He was also fascinated.

  On the other hand, Liang Youxiao wanted to join Xiao Hanzheng and his wife for the stroll.

  The main reason was that he could not sit still.

  It was his first time coming to such a remote and underdeveloped village.

  He was curious and wanted to go out and take a look.

  Who knew that just as he stood up, a big goose glared at him as if he was not allowed to tag along.

  This two-legged monster was annoying.

  His papa and mama were bringing him for a walk, why was he tagging along too?

  Liang Youxiao really saw from the big goose’s eyes that it was despising him.

  Has this goose really become a goblin?

  He looked at the big goose speechlessly and said, “I won’t eat you anymore, alright?”


  Dumby remembered his past enmity, and gave him a few disdainful barks.

  Regarding his intention of eating him, it wasn’t so simple for him to let the matter rest.

  Liang Youxiao thought to himself, this big goose was really difficult to deal with.

  Then, he looked at Shi Qingluo and sighed. “Your goose is really vindictive!”


  Shi Qingluo nodded her head proudly. “That’s right. It’s just like me.”


  She also held a grudge.

  It was good that her goose was like this.

  Liang Youxiao sighed, this woman was really amazing.

  He saw the prideful goose calling out a few times to express his agreement.

  The goose was really its owner’s mirror.

  Looking at the human and goose confronting each other, Xiao Hanzheng smiled and greeted them before dragging his little wife out the door.

  He also disliked having a sociable person to disturb him and his little wife’s stroll.

  His wife did not dote on this goose for nothing. She had good taste.

  After successfully blocking him, Dumby gave a victorious look.

  He swaggered out of the courtyard and went to look for his papa and mama.

  Liang Youxiao was left with a black line on his forehead.

  He could only bring his servant boys to stroll in the village and inquire about Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo at the same time.

  Although there were many merchants who had come from afar recently, there were almost no noble young masters like Liang Youxiao who portray such an extraordinary status at a glance.

  In addition, he was good at communicating with others, so it did not take long for him to mingle well with the old men and women enjoying the shade under the big trees at the entrance of the village.

  He heard a lot about Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo.

  He also heard about the old immortal’s disciple who was lucky to be able to chongxi and knew many things, such as making tofu, sugar, mosquito incense, and so on.

  After hearing it, he was stunned.

  He really did not expect Shi Qingluo to have so many enriching and interesting experiences.

  As for the disciple of some old immortal, he was just listening to the stories casually and didn’t take it to heart.

  It was his first time coming to this kind of countryside, and he enjoyed the novelty here. However, after walking around, he felt a little disgusted that his new shoes became dusty.

  Thus, he returned to the Xiao family leisurely.

  Shi Qingluo and Xiao Hanzheng went for a walk to the Taoist temple.

  The main hall of the Taoist temple was completed, and the workers were still decorating it in the past few days.

  The rooms on the side of the main hall had also been demolished and rebuilt into 2 rows of suite rooms.

  They also added latrines and bathrooms.

  Shi Qingluo held Xiao Hanzheng’s hand and toured for a round before saying. “We can reopen the Taoist temple to the public next month.”


  Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “Decorate it well so that it will be ready next month.

  “Mr Li helped us to calculate the auspicious time. It will be the seventh of next month.”


  Shi Qingluo said, “Then let’s open it to the public on the seventh.

  “Why do you get the workers to build so many suite rooms?”


  Xiao Hanzheng had just looked around.

  There were more than 20 suite rooms along both sides of the main hall.

  Among them, there were a few large suites.

  There was also a small row of suite rooms in the backyard and 2 large kitchens.

  In total, there were more than 30 rooms.

  Because of this, the Taoist temple was only completed this month.

  The workers were still tidying up the decorations.

  Shi Qingluo replied, “This mountain will be ours from now on. It would be a waste if we didn’t develop it.

  “I’ve studied its geographical environment. I intend to hire some people to plant all kinds of fruit trees on the mountain. I also want to build a few mushroom farms.”


  She liked to eat all kinds of fresh mushrooms as well as shiitake mushrooms.

  After planting the first batch of chilli peppers, she was prepared to make some shiitake mushroom dipped with chilli sauce.

  “That’s why we need to hire some long-term workers. It’s not convenient to stay at home, and it’s a little far from our old courtyard, so it’s difficult to commute day in day out.

  “I’m thinking of building more suite rooms in the Taoist temple and let these long-term workers settle here with food provided.

  “More importantly, I also want to find a few people to guard the corn and chilli in the backyard.

  “In the future, I’ll specially get some people to plant new things in the fields that were freed up at the Taoist temple’s backyard.”


  All the crops were given by her old immortal master.

  Shi Qingluo chuckled. “Not only will this Taoist temple be filled with incense, but it will also become more popular. My master will definitely be happy.”


  Xiao Hanzheng remained silent.

  He didn’t know whether the old master would be happy or not, but he was definitely taking more blame for her.

  Shi Qingluo added, “If visitors from afar came to offer incense and gave some donation, we can let them stay here for a few nights.

  “Or if there are guests who come from afar and our guest house is unable to accommodate them, we can let them stay here.

  “Let everyone have some of my master’s immortal aura. I’m sure they’ll be happy.”


  In the future, this Taoist Temple might even become a famous tourist attraction.

  Xiao Hanzheng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “It’s good that you’re happy.”


  The current Taoist Temple was really well-built.

  On top of the ice-making and cement recipes, this news should have already spread in the capital.

  Perhaps there would really be people who came to offer incense and provide donation would stay for the night.

  The two strolled around.

  Seeing that the sky was about to darken, they held hands and returned home.

  This bamboo forest was at the foot of this large mountain.

  The time taken to walk down from the Taoist Temple halfway up the mountain was similar to the time taken for an incense stick to finish burning.

  Shi Qingluo was prepared to build a cement road from the Taoist Temple to the village entrance next time when she had enough money and after successfully planting the crops.

  The next day, Xiao Hanzheng accompanied Shi Qingluo to the county town to buy some things.

  They met a classmate who said that the county school had a letter for him, so the two of them went to the county school again.

  Shi Qingluo had been eating and drinking well for a few months, and she was no longer sallow and skinny.

  Her skin was getting whiter, and her posture was gradually becoming more graceful.

  In addition to drinking that spiritual water every day, she looked full of energy.

  Her facial features were exquisite, and she had a good temperament as well.

  Today, she wore a light green dress and tied a simple hair bun.

  At a glance, one would think that she was a young lady from some aristocratic family.

  Hence, when they reached the county school and many people heard that Xiao Hanzheng had brought his wife to pick up his things, they all pretended to meet them by chance to have a better look.

  Then, they realised that they had really thought too much.

  The so-called rustic and unattractive village girl did not exist at all.

  She was clearly a little beauty with an outstanding temperament.

  Everyone finally understood why Xiao Hanzheng was so protective of this village girl.

  Other than her status as the disciple of an old immortal and her good looks and temperament, she also looked agile.

  She was really special and difficult for others not to notice her.

  Some who were already jealous of Xiao Hanzheng couldn’t wait to transform them in a lemon spirit that was full of jealousy.

  In the past, they could mock Xiao Hanzheng behind his back for marrying a village girl. Now, they could no longer do so.

  This fellow was really lucky to marry a capable and pretty wife that woke him up from her chongxi.

  The teacher in the county town even gave an exception to accept him as his disciple. They were feeling more and more sour!
