Now wasn’t the time to compete with him.

Besides, even if he had been scared before, he sure as hell wouldn’t tell this bastard.

He regretted letting the jerk come today.

After shooting Qin Shou a glare, he immediately turned with a big smile to Xiaohei, “King Hei, remember me?

Hao Jian, I…”

Xiaohei rolled his eyes at Hao Jian and instead turned to nuzzle Yang Ruxin’s hand, looking completely eager to please.

“Hao Jian, that’s Xiaohei’s mate,” Yang Ruxin pointed at Heihei.

“These two are challenging you, don’t take them lightly…”

“Don’t worry, even if I slight my own father, I wouldn’t dare slight King Hei and his spouse…” Hao Jian rubbed his hands together, “I specially brought a horse cart over…”

“When’s the challenge?” Yang Ruxin glanced at Hao Jian.

“Tomorrow there’s one in the county city, on the 26th in Baimu County, and another on the 28th in Peach Blossom Town…”

“You really accept any challenge, huh?” Yang Ruxin frowned.

“Heihei, Ruxin, isn’t it because there’s Silver involved?

Old rules, I get ten percent…”

“I told you, I don’t want Silver, I want grains…” Yang Ruxin waved her hands dismissively.

“No problem.” Hao Jian nodded briskly, the last couple of years had brought good weather, and the granaries everywhere were full to the brim, so collecting grains wasn’t hard.

“All right, get going,” Yang Ruxin waved her hand, “don’t be an eyesore here.”

“Got it, I’m rolling out immediately.” Hao Jian hurriedly nodded in agreement.

“Ruxin, about King Hei’s mate, let me take care of her, I…” Qin Shou saw an opportunity with two eagles quickly put on a fawning smile, “Ruxin, my family runs a grain shop too, you know.

I played a part in the grains that Brother Du collected this time too…”

“You…” Hao Jian made a face, but before he could say anything, Qin Shou had pushed him aside.

“Ruxin, in the future, I…

Qin Shou will definitely look to Ruxin as my leader…” Qin Shou started to declare his loyalty, “Honestly, I’m much better than Hao Jian.

I’ve never done anything bad, I…”

“Just sort it out yourselves,” Yang Ruxin spread her hands, “after all, you two are a pair, and Xiaohei’s a pair of eagles, divide it up yourselves…” After saying that, she walked a few steps away then stopped, “About collecting grains…”

“Don’t worry, except for the Beast, I haven’t told anyone, and he won’t disclose it to anyone either…” Hao Jian raised his hand as if swearing an oath, even kicking Qin Shou behind him as he did so.

“I swear too, if I tell, may I be struck by lightning…” Qin Shou also hastily took an oath.

“Mhm.” Yang Ruxin nodded, then turned to give both men a smile, “If you really do spill the beans, I have plenty of ways to make you beg for life but unable to die…”

Hao Jian and Qin Shou couldn’t help but shiver, then shook their heads in unison, their cheeks puffing as if the flesh might fly off.

Yang Ruxin’s smile briefly brightened, then she turned to head home.

Only then did she notice that neither Hao Jian nor Qin Shou had come empty-handed; both had brought plenty of gifts, albeit clearly separated—one pile from Hao Jian, and another from Qin Shou.

“Big sister, those two are like fools,” Sanni scoffed, “even when giving gifts, they have to compete.

If it wasn’t for second brother-in-law getting angry and telling them to scram, I bet they’d be stripping off their clothes to give away as gifts…”

Yang Ruxin couldn’t help but laugh and shake her head; these two really had to compete in everything, even in gift-giving.

But they were both rich, and she didn’t feel guilty accepting their gifts.

Then, she motioned with her hand, “If they want to give, let’s accept.

Hurry up, take the food to the kitchen and let everyone come pick through the rest of the stuff, just in time to make some spring clothes…”
