The dead general was kidnapped by his husband and taken to farm.

It would take several days to dig the peach trees out of the fields and transport them to their village.

Carpenter Yang patted his chest and promised to deliver it to them in two days.

Jiang Shian paid another ten cents as a reward for his hard work.

This time, Carpenter Yang refused to accept it no matter what. He said that there was a horse carriage in the village and he could borrow it for a day without spending any money. He just needed to ask the neighbors to send him some vegetables. He couldn't accept Jiang Shian's copper coins again.

After recommending for a long time, Jiang Shian saw that Carpenter Yang insisted and had to take the copper coin back.

They decided not to go back to Carpenter Yang's house, and politely declined his invitation to stay for dinner. They walked straight to the village entrance.

It was still early for lunch and they were not far from Taohua Village, so they slowed down on the way.

There are many wild strawberries in the grass along the road, each one is bright red and looks very delicious.

There were also some unripe green mulberries hanging heavy on the tree.

Jiang Shian felt a little jealous and really wanted to dig them up and take them home to plant in the yard. When they were ripe in April or May, he could eat them as fruit and also make wine.

Ji Yinghuai saw him staring at it, taking note of the surrounding scenery, thinking of having someone move it to the yard next time.

Jiang Shian picked several large handfuls of wild fruits and ate them while walking. He felt his stomach was full of water.

Ji Yinghuai held two large bags of wild strawberries wrapped in leaves in his hands.

Jiang Shian ate it himself, and he was fed one or two pills from time to time.

Ji Yinghuai blushed and shook his head, turning away.

Jiang Shian seemed to be teasing him deliberately. The more he tried to avoid him, the more the boy would not let him go, and he would always put the food accurately into his mouth.

Sometimes he was too slow to avoid it, and the other person's thin, white, warm fingers just touched his lips. The boy's fingertips were as white as jade, and were cooler than his lips.

Ji Yinghuai's face flushed red with embarrassment. As the King of Zhanbei, he could always order women to go to bed without blushing or panting. But now, because of the boy's actions, his face flushed red.

He dodged and stuttered, "Shi An, you really don't have to feed me, just eat it yourself, I...I don't like it."

Jiang Shian tilted his head to look at the man's red earlobes and laughed even more happily. It turns out that men's ears will turn red when they are embarrassed. He had previously thought it was because of the hot weather.

A triumphant smile flashed across his face. Why didn't he know before that he had such a evil side?

It would be fine if Ji Yinghuai accepted it calmly, but the other party's actions and expressions were like a young wife who was teased, and he really couldn't help but want to tease her more.

The identification is complete. Although he looks honest and abstinent, he is definitely a sultry and domineering wolfdog type under the skin.

At first, Ji Yinghuai had no idea how to refuse Jiang Shian's sudden enthusiasm. Later, when he realized that the other party was teasing him, he got annoyed and quickened his pace.

Jiang Shian hurriedly raised his legs to catch up, shouting as he chased, "Ji Er, why are you walking so fast? Wait for me, isn't it just eating some fruit? We are all men, don't be shy!"

The corner of Ji Yinghuai's mouth twitched. He stopped, turned around and narrowed his eyes at the young man who was standing in front of him.

His aura and expression suddenly changed, from the innocent and shy little wolfdog to the extremely aggressive wolf king.

The look in his eyes when he looked at the young man seemed as if he wanted to swallow him up.

He remembered these words, "We are all men, don't be shy", and hoped that the other party could still say it so frankly in the future.

He curled the corners of his mouth slightly and said in a low voice: "Shi An, I hope you can still say this frankly in the future."

Jiang Shian was stunned for a moment as he saw the sudden change in expression on his face. After hearing what the man said, he took a step back uncomfortably.

Ji Er's sense of aggression was too strong at this moment, and the gaze filled with possession, fierceness and paranoia made him feel a little uncomfortable.

The boy seemed to be really frightened, and there was a look of vigilance in his eyes. Ji Yinghuai restrained his momentum again, stretched out his hand to rub the top of Jiang Shian's head, and said with a smile: "What's wrong? Are you scared? I was just teasing you."

Jiang Shian pursed his lips, glared at him, walked around him from the side and continued walking forward.

If I had known he would do that, I wouldn't have teased him. It's like trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice.

-

Early on the third day.

Carpenter Yang drove his carriage to the door of the Jiang family early in the morning.

The carriage was filled with freshly dug peaches, the soil was still moist, and due to the bumpy road, many peach petals had fallen off.

Hearing the knock on the door, Ji Yinghuai put down the bow and arrow in his hand and stood up to open the door.

His injuries had almost healed in half a month, and the family hadn't eaten meat for several days.

In the afternoon he planned to take a walk in the nearby mountains, at least to give the boy some meat to eat, as this was the time when he was growing up.

Jiang Shian was washing pottery jars in the yard. When he opened the door and saw an acquaintance standing outside, he put his things down and stood up to greet him.

"Carpenter Yang is here. Please come in and sit down. Thank you for bringing this to me." Jiang Shian said politely.

In addition to Carpenter Yang, there were several other men on the carriage. They should be from the same village as Carpenter Yang and came to help.

The few of them talked for a while and introduced themselves to each other.

Then the wooden door opened wide, and three or five men carried the peach tree into the yard.

I just cleaned out the corner and watered it yesterday, so the soil is still loose and easier to dig.

They brought hoes with them on their carriages, and the men did not hesitate. They picked up the hoes and dug a few large holes at the locations Jiang Shian mentioned and planted the peach trees.

The two smallest trees were planted on both sides of the gate, and the rest were planted in the yard.

One of the men who came with them patted the peach tree and smiled at the two of them, "This peach tree is strong and will bear peaches in a few months. Our fields are next to each other, and I have seen it before. The peaches on this tree are big and sweet."

"Hey, Old Xu, you're exaggerating. Aren't all peach trees the same?" Carpenter Yang looked at Jiang Shi'an again and said, "This tree doesn't need watering every day. It has so many branches that you can prune it a few times to avoid sharing nutrients with the fruit."

"Okay." Jiang Shian nodded and invited them back to the main hall for tea. "It's a rare visit for everyone, so come in and have a cup of tea before leaving."

Everyone looked at the boy in front of them, and then looked at the tall man standing next to them. How come the boy in this house doesn't know to avoid suspicion when he comes out to greet guests? On the contrary, the man doesn't say much, which is really strange.

Carpenter Yang waved his hand to thank him, then took a square wooden frame from the carriage.

Inside are the 300 toothbrushes he just made recently. The remaining 200 will be delivered tomorrow. He sent some of them over temporarily so that the other party can check the goods. If there is any need for improvement, it will be convenient for him to make it later.

When he heard it was a toothbrush, Jiang Shian hurried over to take a look. Ji Yinghuai followed behind him, obviously also very curious about this new object.

The handle of the toothbrush is as long as a chopstick, and the round head in front is a fixed bristle. The bristles are very clean, there is no odor, and they are trimmed very neatly. At first glance, it is almost the same as a modern toothbrush.

Jiang Shian checked it carefully, looked up and thanked Carpenter Yang: "Everything is fine. Thank you for your hard work these past few days, Carpenter Yang."

"It's not hard, it should be."

When the people behind him heard that this thing was for brushing teeth, they were all surprised. It can be done by just scraping with a branch, so why is there a separate thing called a toothbrush?

Jiang Shian gave each of them a toothbrush, then went back into the house to pour tooth powder into a small bamboo jar and gave some to each person.

Let’s use these people as the first wave of publicity.

"This thing can clean teeth and whiten them. Uncle, just imagine how dirty it is to have bad breath from talking to people all day. With this, not only will the bad smell go away, but you won't be disliked when you go home and have sex with your wife."

Several men burst out laughing at what he said, and two of them blushed. It was true that in the past, when they were intimate with their wives, they were always criticized for their bad breath.

When they are not busy, the country people remember to scrape with tree branches or chew the core of willow branches. When they are busy, they don’t have the time. Having this little thing is very convenient and doesn’t require much effort.

But they couldn't just accept this thing for free, as the other party was obviously planning to sell it, so they searched their pockets and prepared to pay two copper coins.

Jiang Shian saw what they were thinking and waved his hand, saying, "Thank you for making this trip. Consider this toothbrush as payment for your hard work. If it works well for you, uncles, you guys have to help me promote it."

The young man in front of them had a faint smile on his face, and his face was full of sincerity when he looked at them. Several men nodded subconsciously and agreed one after another.

After everyone thanked him and left, Jiang Shian closed the wooden door and immediately pulled Ji Yinghuai to go test it.

Wet the toothbrush and put a little tooth powder on it. Moisten your mouth with clean water before starting to brush your teeth.

Ji Yinghuai watched Jiang Shian's movements and followed suit.

When he put it in his mouth, he was pleasantly surprised. Although it was made of pig hair, it had no strange smell and was just the right toughness. The tooth powder also tasted fresh, like mint, and there was some foam in his mouth after just a few brushings.

Jiang Shian took a sip of water, then rinsed his mouth and spit it out.

He turned to Ji Yinghuai and showed his white teeth, "How is it? Is it effective?"

Ji Yinghuai stared at his teeth, or more precisely, the tender pink tongue in his mouth. He looked away uncomfortably, tugged at his collar, and then answered, "Very convenient."

That's right, don't you see who came up with this idea?

Jiang Shian was a little proud, and packed his things back into the house. Then he continued to work on what he had just done.
