After marrying the hunter, he became more and more abnormal

"I understand." Ling Chuan said solemnly. If the young man's situation was reversed with his, he would definitely feel bad.

When Xia Mo raised his eyes, he met a pair of extremely sincere eyes. He pursed his lips slightly, and after a long silence, he smiled with relief.

It is rare to meet such a gentle man in such a vast crowd of people. It is his luck.

This made Xia Mo's heart burn with heat, and for a moment he was tempted to tell the other party that he was not the real Ze Ge'er, but he couldn't say the words when they came to his lips.

Because their natures are different. Ling Chuan has a different identity, but apart from this identity, he is still himself, but he is different. If we put aside this body, he, Xia Mo, is not even a human being...

Xia Mo didn't dare to gamble, so he changed the topic under Ling Chuan's waiting gaze: "Then how long will you be gone this time?"

"Ten days, ten days at the latest, I will be back." Ling Chuan stared at Xia Mo word by word, as if assuring him that he would return on time.

Ten days...

"So long." Xia Mo couldn't help but whispered.

In fact, he was not the only one who felt it was too long. Ling Chuan thought so too. He was also very reluctant to leave. They had just expressed their love to each other, but now he had to leave. Anyone would feel uncomfortable.

But he either had to not get involved in the matter, or if he did, he had to leave no trace. This was not only related to Prince Qiao's Mansion, but also to his and his young brother's future life. He didn't want his young brother to suffer any other harm because of him.

Ling Chuan's eyes darkened. No matter what, this was the last time. He had no worries before, but for the rest of his life, he just wanted to live a good life with his little brother.

Thinking of this, Ling Chuan became more determined in his previous idea, "Ze'er, wait for me again." His voice was low, and tenderness on his face was also filled in his eyes.

Xia Mo looked at him twice, then lowered her eyelids, her long eyelashes covering up the disappointment in her eyes. After a while, she raised them again and smiled faintly, "Okay, I'll wait for you."

Although he was worried and reluctant, liking someone didn't mean they had to stick together all the time. Everyone had things they wanted to do, and Xia Mo didn't want Ling Chuan to speed up his pace because of him.

Ling Chuan nodded heavily, "I'll be back as soon as possible." As he said this, a faint smile suddenly appeared on his serious expression. He knew that his little brother would wait for him.

Afterwards, Xia Mo asked Ling Chuan when he would leave. Fortunately, this time he didn't leave as quickly as last time.

"I'll leave tomorrow." Ling Chuan replied.

Xia Mo nodded, hesitated for a moment and asked again: "Brother Ling, is there anything you need to bring? You can pack it in advance."

Ling Chuan wanted to say no, after all, what could a grown man like him bring? But then he thought about it and suddenly remembered something, so he asked the boy hesitantly: "Ze'er, can you give me some of the maltose?"

Although I can't take the little brother with me, it would be nice if I could take some of this with me. However, the little brother once said that he wanted to use it for business, so I don't know if it is enough?

Xia Mo looked at the man in front of him in a daze for a moment, then he chuckled, and his depressed mood disappeared in an instant. What kind of stupid question is this?

"Of course you can, but those liquid ones are not easy to carry. If you like, Brother Ling, I can make them into solid soft candies for you."

"Okay, what do you need me to do? I'll help you." Seeing that the young man had gotten rid of his depression, Ling Chuan spoke more attentively.

"Okay." Xia Mo agreed immediately.

It would be a shame to have such a sturdy and strong person to do the job. With his skills, maybe he can help him do more, so that he doesn't have to do it all by himself.

To make liquid maltose into solid soft candy, the main thing is to repeatedly draw it into threads so that the sugar body is constantly inflated and whitened, and then cool it into shape. After rolling it into soft candy, add some cooked flour to coat it to prevent the sugar cubes from sticking together.

After the two of them talked things out, they returned to the kitchen and decided to make the marshmallows as quickly as possible. With Master Xia's guidance, Apprentice Ling quickly mastered the wire drawing techniques.

When a husband and wife work together, work becomes less tiring.

Ling Chuan was using wood edges to make wire, while Xia Mo was using a large pot to steam flour over a low heat. With the joint efforts of the two, they made a lot of soft candies in most of the day, and they didn't stop until the afternoon when they felt it was almost done.

"Brother Ling, who has small ceramic jars for sale? As long as the liquid maltose is sealed well, it can be stored for nearly a year." Xia Mo turned to face Ling Chuan and asked.

"The peddler and the village chief both have them." Ling Chuan said as he glanced at the maltose. He didn't expect that they could be kept for so long.

"Well...that's great, let's go to the village chief's house. I was planning to give him something anyway." Xia Mo said after swallowing a piece of maltose.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Ling Chuan naturally had no objection. He had always seen Liu Zheng's protectiveness towards the young man, and he was very grateful in his heart. Before he was around, it was they who took care of the young man.

Yes, that's them.

Looking at the large amount of maltose in front of him, Ling Chuan smiled and said, "Give some to Tiedan as well. That kid is very greedy."

"Of course, Tiedan is the boss, how could I forget him." Xia Mo couldn't help but think of the incident when Ling Chuan was used by some adults to scare children, and he couldn't help laughing.

"Boss?" Ling Chuan raised his eyebrows, and after a closer look he saw that there seemed to be some flour on the tip of the boy's nose, so he leaned over and raised his hand to help him brush it off.

Xia Mo was so surprised by his sudden action that her breath was choked. Her laughter instantly faded. "What...what happened?"

"It's nothing, just a little powder." Ling Chuan's eyes darkened when his gaze fell on the boy's lips, his Adam's apple rolled, and then he stepped back as if nothing had happened.

"Oh." Xia Mo nodded in response, raised his hand and touched his nose, and then went back to the previous topic, "Of course he is the eldest of the children. I think Tiedan will have a bright future. He is so capable at such a young age."

Ling Chuan's eyes flickered slightly, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "That's pretty impressive."

"That's what I thought. I didn't expect that Brother Ling you also think so. Hehe, maybe I, Malt Sugar, will have another big brother fan in the future." By then, he will be able to get a lot of response from the kids... Oh no, just a few.

Xia Mo was thinking happily, as if he didn't notice that someone next to him pursed his lips slightly. He then picked up a piece of malt sugar, took a bite and ate it.

"Brother Ling, wait for a moment. I'll go get some paper to wrap it up, and then we'll go."

As Xia Mo was about to turn around and leave, someone grabbed his wrist and pulled him hard, slamming him into a broad and strong embrace.

"......?" Xia Mo raised his head in confusion. Before he could ask what was wrong, someone touched the back of his head and kissed him...
