Ji Yun An who was standing behind Chen Xiao Mai had overheard that, he glanced at Chen Xiao Mai and thought to himself, 'Isn't that a normal reaction? Maybe you shouldn't be saying Magistrate Lu being too timid, maybe you are being too unruly.'

Yuan Bao blinked and said, "Snakes are very scary though! I heard that after being bitten by a venomous snake, you might not be able to live. However, the silkworms don't bite and they are not venomous, but father still makes a scene."

Chen Xiao Mai held his chin as if absorbed in thought, "Hmm, you have a point, I guess some people are scared of snakes, but why the silkworms!"

Ji Yun An listened to the conversation between Chen Xiao Mai and Yuan Bao with great interest, he just found Lu Lin very funny.

Ji Yun An didn't want to cause any attention from Mai and Yuan Bao, so he pretended he was busy transcribing the stories Lu Lin had told him.

Chen Xiao Mi suddenly glanced at Ji Yun An and said, "I heard that scholars are all as timid as a mouse, is that true?"

Ji Yun An frowned on hearing that.

"I'm not timid, thank you very much," said Ji Yun An.

Chen Xiao Mai made a face, obviously he didn't believe it, "Really?"

Ji Yun An looked at Chen Xiao Mai and said excitedly, "I went to the battlefield." Although he was young, he indeed had fought on the battlefield, well, he had entered the field. Liu Yun protected him really well, so he didn't actually fight the battle, he was still proud of himself.

Chen Xiao Mai exclaimed, "You've been on the battlefield! Really? You actually went to the battlefield?"

Ji Yun An nodded and said, "Yeah!"

Chen Xiao Mai looked at Ji Yun An and couldn't help but regard him with special respect.

......

The stores that Chen Xiao Cai bought were already running one after another. Although they hadn't made a lot of money yet, they had definitely made a picture of prosperity.

The number of people on the street had increased drastically. A high flow meant more customer and more business.

Summer was just around the corner. Chen Xiao Mi's belly was getting bigger and bigger with their second child.

There were many farmers in Sha County who planted watermelons. Watermelon was what Chen Xiao Mai's favorite, and Chen Xiao Mi always craved for watermelons after he got pregnant. However, watermelons were cold in nature and Lu Lin always stopped them from eating too much on one go.

"Big Brother, your stomach is getting so round."

Chen Xiao Mi smiled, "Yeah! Soon you are going to have another nephew or niece."

Chen Xiao Mi thought to himself, 'How I wish I could give birth now, Lu Lin doesn't let me eat watermelons because of the baby! I can't wait to give birth and eat at my own will!'

When Lu Lin entered the house, he saw Chen Xiao Mai looking at Chen Xiao Mi's belly with sparkly eyes.

Lu Lin always felt that the way Chen Xiao Mai looked at Chen Xiao Mi's belly was a little strange. Chen Xiao Mai was looking at Chen Xiao Mi's belly like it were a giant watermelon.

Lu Lin shook his head and threw away the strange thoughts in his mind.

Sha County had recently developed quite well. Perhaps it was because of the benefits, it had attracted many people from other counties to settle down. Some people who had left Sha County before had returned, and the villages all look more lively.
