He was busy until evening.

Only then did Long Xiaoshan return to the farm and ate the dinner Chun Tao had prepared.

Now, the whole family dined at the farm.

After dinner, Long Dashan wanted to talk to Long Xiaoshan about the election of the villagers, but He Xiangyue pulled him away forcefully.

"What's the matter, old lady? I've still got things to do."

"All your little matters, what's so special about them? Isn't it just a village chief? Our Xiaoshan doesn't care for that now."

He Xiangyue winked at Long Xiaoshan and dragged Long Dashan away.

Leaving Chun Tao to clean up. Now He Xiangyue treated Chun Tao entirely as her own daughter-in-law, knowing that her son was young and vigorous and needed her the most, so she created alone time for the two of them.

Seeing the look He Xiangyue gave him before leaving, Long Xiaoshan chuckled to himself, indeed a loving mother.

He sat there, quietly watching Chun Tao, wearing an apron, washing dishes with her back to him.

Admiring her gentle and virtuous demeanor.

The feelings inside Long Xiaoshan grew stronger, and he walked over, hugged Chun Tao from behind, and rested his head on her shoulder.

As the rain stopped and clouds dispersed.

The two huddled together, talking until after eight o'clock.

Only then did Chun Tao leave the farm.

Although everyone in the village knew she was Long Xiaoshan's woman, Chun Tao was rather shy and usually did not stay at the farm overnight.

Long Xiaoshan took some herbs from his room and went to the kitchen to start decocting them.

After more than an hour, he produced some green medicinal pills and placed them in a bottle.

Looking at the sky outside.

Long Xiaoshan got up and left the farm.

Soon, he arrived at Jin Lian's house at the entrance to the village. Using Heavenly Eye, he saw that Jin Lian was sitting in her room reading a book.

Long Shiyu had already gone to bed.

Long Xiaoshan didn't knock on the door but climbed in from outside.

Upon reaching the second floor, he entered the room and called out, "Sister Jinlian."

Jin Lian quickly turned her head and, seeing Long Xiaoshan, patted her chest and said, "You scared me! I thought a thief had come in. Why are you coming over so late?"

"I saw the light on over here, came to check on you. Your health is alright now?"

"Yeah, I can go back to work tomorrow."

Jin Lian had stayed home one day and felt more energetic than ever before. She wondered what acupuncture Long Xiaoshan had performed on her yesterday to create such a big change in her body.

"I've boiled some medicine for you, to help you recuperate," Long Xiaoshan said as he took out the bottle of medicine.

Jin Lian took it, poured out a pill to look and smell. With a smile, she said, "Little Xiaoshan, you're so thoughtful."

Long Xiaoshan, slightly embarrassed, scratched his head, "I should."

"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll be going," Long Xiaoshan said, standing up to leave.

"Wait, why the hurry? Are you afraid I'll cling to you? I didn't expect you to be that kind of person," Jin Lian commented.

"No, no, Sister Jinlian, you've got it all wrong," Long Xiaoshan hastily replied.

Jin Lian chuckled, "I'm just teasing you, go on."

After she said this, Long Xiaoshan felt even more embarrassed to leave.

He asked, "What book are you reading?"

"Just some finance stuff," Jin Lian picked up the book she was holding and flipped it over. It was titled "Advanced Financial Management" and was a Peking University Press textbook.

"Sister Jinlian, you're really hardworking."

"I have no choice, my previous foundation was too weak, so I have to work even harder," Jin Lian replied with a frown. "Actually, I don't really understand it. No one is here to teach me; I can only figure it out by myself."

"Let me have a look," Long Xiaoshan said, taking the book to examine it.

He had studied business management in college, which included financial and accounting courses.

Flipping through the pages, many memories came back to him. His memory had become photographic since practicing the Longevity Art, and his comprehension had improved a lot.

This subject wasn't difficult for him. He offered, "If there's anything you don't understand, I can help you with it."

"You know how... wait, you are our village's descended Wenqu Star, I forgot that," Jin Lian exclaimed happily. "Come up here, teach me."

As she spoke, she shifted further into the bed.

Long Xiaoshan hesitated for a moment, concerned Jin Lian might misunderstand, so he sat on the edge of the bed.

Jin Lian pointed to some areas in the book she didn't understand and asked questions. Long Xiaoshan recalled and interpreted the content, giving her guidance.

Unknowingly, as the two of them conversed back and forth, time passed.

And the night grew deeper...
