Chapter 1234: Chapter 1236: Didn’t Just Carry a Pig_1
"Pfft..." Seeing him so nervous, Yang Chuxia suddenly laughed again, "You look just like that silly boy from so many years ago."
Seeing her suddenly laugh again, Ye Zi’an breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiaxia, your crying and laughing are really scary."
"Can’t I be happy?" She wiped her tears and suddenly plunged into Ye Zi’an’s arms.
Ye Zi’an hugged the person in his arms tightly but sighed, "It’s so contradictory. You cry when you’re unhappy, and you cry when you’re happy too. No wonder people say a woman’s heart is as hard to find as a needle in the sea."
"Hehe..." In his embrace, Yang Chuxia laughed again at his remark.
She only lifted her head after a while and hooked her arm through Ye Zi’an’s, "Didn’t you say you were going to take me to see the place ahead? Let’s go."
Originally, Ye Zi’an had really wanted to carry her there, but because she started crying when he mentioned it, he didn’t dare to offer to carry her now.
"Okay, ahead I saw a large field of peonies, but they haven’t bloomed yet. There are also many other types of flowers. When I came here the other day, the new leaves had grown out, and quite a few unrecognizable flower species had already bloomed. Mianyang has warm weather early, so there’s some benefit – the flowers here bloom earlier than elsewhere."
When they reached the place, Yang Chuxia indeed found many types of flowers, akin to a flower garden. This area was different from the wildflower fields they had passed before; those were nameless wildflowers, while here were the types people would plant in a garden. Although the varieties were common, there was a wide range."
"Have you checked who owns this land or if it belongs to Linshan Temple?"
"No one bought it, and it doesn’t belong to Linshan Temple. The county records list it as unclaimed land." This was what puzzled Ye Zi’an – the land clearly marked as unowned, yet filled with so many flower species.
"If it’s unclaimed land, we could transplant these flowers to the Yanghe riverside, which would save us part of the cost for plantings."
"I had the same thought. After the seedlings here are moved, we can scatter some new flower seeds, and it will be set." Ye Zi’an felt somewhat regretful; the place was ultimately a little too small and too hidden. It wasn’t suitable to be developed into a place for leisure and tourism, otherwise, the scenery here alone would have been an attraction.
"Yeah, we should scatter some seeds. It would still be a nice spot for me to come to relax once in a while," agreed Yang Chuxia, sharing Ye Zi’an’s sentiment that the location was too concealed to turn into a tourist attraction. This was ancient times, not like the modern day where they could just fence off the area and charge an admission fee.
Their intention in improving the Yanghe scenery was to drive the development of other industries, but this place couldn’t serve that purpose.
"Shall we head back today? We can come again another time."
As always, time spent together for the two seemed to pass too quickly, and before they knew it, the day had turned to dusk.
"Alright!"
Hand in hand, they walked out, the glow of the evening sun casting a veil of light over them, creating an ethereal yet dazzling sight. The carriage driver, seeing them, couldn’t help muttering to himself that they were indeed a perfect match.
"Shall we eat out before heading back?" Zi’an asked on the way.
"Better not. When we left, Yangyang was already crying his eyes out. If we go back after dinner, who knows how much he’ll cry then."
Hearing that, Ye Zi’an pursed his lips and thought to himself that kids were indeed born to be daddy’s little adversaries. Even the rare moments for just the two of them had to account for the two little rascals.
"Hurry, walk faster, don’t let people discover us."
"I’ve got the sack over it. What if they do find out? It’s just like hauling a pig." His companion was left speechless. Was this just any pig?
