Having sent these people away, it was already evening, and Qiao Xiaomai stretched her body, carrying the hemp sack filled with silver notes as she walked toward Mai Yuan.

Yang Ye followed beside her, his hands clasped behind his back, casually kicking at pebbles as he walked, “You’ve been tired all day, let the palace maid do the cooking tonight, you should rest.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai was a bit surprised but immediately nodded in agreement. She loved gourmet food, but she wasn’t fond of cooking meal after meal.

If the cooking were for Tong Sanlang, she would be willing to do it every day.

But catering to the Yang Family wasn’t to her liking; she’d take rest whenever she could.

“Do you really wish I had left with elder brother?” Yang Ye couldn’t help asking as he watched her vigorously nod her head.

Qiao Xiaomai blinked, “No.”

Sometimes Yang Ye was quite useful, like today, for instance. The visitors today were all of higher status than Tong Sanlang was, and if it wasn’t for Yang Ye and Yang Hao being there, her task of fleecing people would definitely not have gone so smoothly.

“Really?” Yang Ye’s face showed disbelief.

“Really.” Qiao Xiaomai put on a sincere expression.

“Then I can stay as long as I want to, then.” Yang Ye cocked an eyebrow.

“Of course. However, Your Highness, my mother really does want to do good deeds, to help those who are more miserable and in more trouble than she is. The Charity Hall matter has been entrusted to you by the emperor, when do you plan to take it over?”

Qiao Xiaomai tilted her head, her bright eyes asking, her little face showing a look that though she really wished he would stay, there were still important matters he had to attend to.

“You know that my mother doesn’t even want to see my father now. She attributes all the suffering she’s endured to him, and every day she spends in this manor is torture for her.”

Yang Ye, “…Is it really that severe?”

“It is. You’ve seen her yourself. She looks almost the same as when I first brought her back. You’ve seen the conditions of the manor; I’ve already offered her the best we have, but she still looks like a stick, no matter how much I try to fatten her up.”

“She has a mental block, a hurdle she can’t get over. I can’t bear to see her continue like this.”

“Your Highness, I’m begging you, please take over the Charity Hall, okay?”

Yang Ye “…”

He kicked the small stone beneath his foot with force, “This king has been running around for a year, still haven’t caught my breath yet.”

“You could start by opening a branch in Prefecture City, give it a trial run. The road from Bailu Town to Prefecture City is under construction; once it’s finished, the commute will be very convenient,” Qiao Xiaomai said.

“Let’s talk about it once the road is finished then,” Yang Ye said with a grand wave of his hand, shifting the topic. “Speaking of which, how much crawfish is left in the backyard?”

“About six or seven thousand pounds,”

“Send some to Capital City.” With that said, he turned and walked away.

This Qiao Xiaomai, on the surface she said she didn’t hope for him to leave, but in reality, she was rushing him away.

Eh, how boring, how boring!

As for Qiao Xiaomai, she brought the hemp sack to Mai Yuan, where Ailiusa was nowhere to be seen. She sat on a stool, drank a bowl of Spiritual Spring water, then dumped all the silver notes from the sack onto the ground and started counting them, one by one.

When Tong Sanlang returned, what met his eyes was the sight of silver notes scattered all across the courtyard. He was slightly amazed for a moment, “Why are you counting them here?”

“Too lazy to move, come over and help me count,” Xiaomai said.

Tong Sanlang had been busy directing people for the cleanup until now.

“Tomorrow, let’s go to the town and buy some piglets, maybe even expand the pigsty a bit.” Buying piglets now, they’d be just right to slaughter by the New Year.

By that time, it wouldn’t just be students from Bailu Academy coming to purchase; people from Capital City would come as well.

The current stock of over a hundred pigs was simply not enough to meet the demand.
