Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

Just as Xie Jin kept making guesses in his mind, Gu Xirong smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth.

"Don't worry, my husband. To recruit talents and expand our wings, we need money. This is also what our Xie family lacks the most right now."

"In my dream, this summer, it rained for days around the capital, and strong winds blew away many roofs."

"A lot of food and medicinal materials were soaked, causing their prices to rise. Food is related to people's livelihood, and hoarding them to make money will inevitably lead to endless troubles."

"But medicinal herbs won't be so conspicuous. After all, everyone needs to eat food every day, but only sick people will buy and take medicine. If we can make a fortune from this, then the Xie family will not be short of money."

When Xie Jin heard what Gu Xirong said, his eyes sparkled and he hugged Gu Xirong's arm even tighter.

"My little darling, my fairy queen, you are so lovely..."

Even though they couldn't have fun in the carriage, Xie Jin was not idle either. He tried to please Gu Xirong and let her fall under his masculine charm.

Just when Gu Xirong's face was blushing, her eyes were affectionate, her breathing was rapid, and she couldn't control herself, the carriage stopped.

"Madam, General, we have arrived at the West Market."

Xie Jin was stunned, stopped making trouble, and looked puzzled, "Madam, what are you doing in the West Market?"

Gu Xirong smiled mysteriously, "You will know about the good things that can help you achieve merit later."

Gu Xirong, wearing a veil, got off the carriage.

She walked straight to a shop and asked softly, "Shopkeeper, do you have any foreign seeds that can produce high yields?"

This person was Wu Mu. He was slightly stunned and looked at the lady in front of him who was dressed charmingly and pretty.

"Madam, the high-yield seeds I brought from my hometown have been bought. If you still want them, I will have the fleet bring them here next year."

"Bought by someone?" Gu Xirong's voice suddenly rose sharply. "Who bought it?"

Gu Xirong had a bad feeling in her heart!

Wu Mu looked at the woman in front of him, then at the tall and strong Xie Jin behind him, with a respectful attitude.

"I don't know. That young lady also wore a veil. But the husband who came with her was handsome, with a fair face and no beard, and he was gentle and elegant."

Hearing Wu Mu's description, Gu Xirong's face turned grim. She was sure that it was Gu Xiling and Zhou Jin.

She knew about her past life, and of course Gu Xiling knew it too.

High-yield crops benefit the common people and can bring prestige.

The cunning Gu Xiling let her get ahead this time.

Gu Xirong secretly regretted that she should have bought the high-yield seeds earlier.

Failed!

After having her high-yield seeds that could bring her great fame snatched away, Gu Xirong was in no mood to continue shopping.

She got into the carriage angrily.

Xie Jin chuckled, "Forget it if we didn't buy it, it proves that we are not destined to have it."

Gu Xirong looked resentful and pouted, "It's all my husband's fault for not trusting me and keeping me at home. Otherwise, the high-yield seeds would have fallen into our hands."

Xie Jin was embarrassed and explained softly, "Okay, I was wrong. Now that things have come to this, my lady, there is no need to regret it."

Gu Xirong was unwilling to accept this. She didn't want Gu Xiling to get what she didn't get, and she didn't want Gu Xiling to make plans for Zhou Jin.

After thinking it over, Gu Xirong continued in a sad tone, "Are you not tempted by the 500-jin grain yield per mu? If this is the crop that you contribute to His Majesty, why worry about not getting promoted?"

"If such crops were to spread from our Xie family to the common people, what kind of reputation would it bring? This is something that no amount of money can buy."

Xie Jin was stunned, unable to believe it, "Five hundred kilograms per mu?"

The Xie family was poor, but they still had a hundred acres of land.

A wheat yield of 100 kilograms per mu is considered a good year.

If the grain yield per mu is 500 kilograms, it is considered a good omen in the eyes of the world.

With such a reputation, if he really reaches a position above everyone else in the future, he may be able to go even further.

People's ambitions grow little by little.

"It's just as my lady said. Then this kind of seeds is worth fighting for! When I get back home, I'll send someone to investigate who bought those seeds!"

Although Gu Xirong knew, she couldn't say it.

The truth that Gu Xiling can also predict the future must never be exposed.

Only in this way can she become a unique existence in Xie Jin's eyes.

The only difference between her and Gu Xiling in her previous life was a man.

In this life, she had the upper hand and married Xie Jin first. Later, she became the high-ranking, graceful and elegant Regent Princess.

At that time, Gu Xiling knelt in front of her, looked at her breath, and read her expression.

At this time, at the manor of Marquis Changning, the ten-day deadline had arrived.

Gu Xiling accompanied the old lady as they walked along the country path, while Zhou Jin put his hands behind his back.

All the wheat has been planted, but they still take a walk in the fields every day.

"Gu, the ten-day deadline has arrived, and you haven't told me your intentions yet?" Zhou Jin had been thinking about this question in his mind.

The old lady remained silent, but she was also listening.

Gu Xiling stood at the edge of the field and pointed at the ten acres of land.

"This is my answer. The feelings that the prince has gained from working these past few days, facing the earth and back to the sky, are my answer."

The old lady suddenly realized and patted Gu Xiling's hand, "Good child, you are thoughtful."

Zhou Jin was slightly startled, then smiled and bowed to Gu Xiling, "I see. I'm glad to learn from you."

If Gu Xiling told him directly, he might not listen, or even sneer at her.

But when I personally worked under the scorching sun and saw my sweat dripping to the ground and forming tiny beads of sweat, I deeply realized the hardships of the common people.

The old lady grabbed Gu Xiling's hand with one hand and Zhou Jin's hand with the other and put their hands together.

"Jin'er, Xiling, you two are a match made in heaven. Life is short, cherish it and love it."

Letting go of Zhou Jin and Gu Xiling's tightly clasped hands, the old lady turned around and left quietly.

Gu Xiling blushed slightly and tried to pull back her hand, but Zhou Jin held it tightly.

"Let go." Gu Xiling was annoyed. The scoundrel was trying to climb up the ladder and he took advantage of her.

"Not letting go." Zhou Jin lowered his eyes and looked at the two people's clasped hands.

"Let go." Gu Xiling glared at Zhou Jin angrily and pulled her hand back with increased strength.

"I won't let go." Zhou Jin held Gu Xiling's hand even harder, "I'm holding my wife's hand, why shouldn't I hold it?"

Gu Xiling raised her eyebrows and said angrily, "Now you know to call me Madam. Weren't you from the Gu family before? Don't think that you can get away with it just because your grandmother is backing you up. Let go, and don't force me to bring up the past and embarrass you."

Seeing that Gu Xiling was about to confront him again, Zhou Jin quickly let go, "Gu Xiling, has anyone ever said that you're a big spoiler?"

"Yes!" Gu Xiling smiled, her eyes full of provocation.

"Who?" Zhou Jin asked, his eyes full of curiosity, wanting to hear who shared the same opinion as him.

"Big idiot!" Gu Xiling hummed in response and turned to walk forward.

"Tell me who is the big fool?" Zhou Jin chased after him with a puzzled look in his eyes.

"It's whoever asks!" Gu Xiling answered crisply, picked up her skirt, and started running.

Zhou Jin was stunned for a moment, then he understood.

Gu Xiling actually scolded him!
