Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife

Chapter 765: Chapter 765: Why Is This Kid So Stubborn

After Vice County Magistrate Zhang left, Lin Chuxia shared her plans with Yu Fei.

Yu Fei, who followed all along, understood Lin Chuxia’s concerns.

Straightforwardly, “Alright, you can proceed with your plan for this matter. Don’t worry about Qingyan Town, I’ll handle it.”

Lin Chuxia planned to head to Yuncheng County together with Yu Fei once things here were sorted out.

Yu Fei was efficient; however, the issue wasn’t completely resolved.

When he returned, he was accompanied by several leaders, including Village Chief Ma from Qingyan Village, the town mayor, and local county government leaders.

It was evident that those leaders who previously put on airs were now panicking upon realizing the situation wasn’t what they presumed it to be.

Especially the town mayor of Qingyan Town, who severely criticized Qingyan Village’s situation, causing Village Chief Ma to hang his head.

He repeatedly apologized to Lin Chuxia, promising that the issues in Qingyan Village had been resolved, with strict criticism and education for those involved.

The local villagers, too, had previously misunderstood, but that misunderstanding has now been cleared up.

Lin Chuxia wanted to develop a Chinese herbal cultivation base in Qingyan Village and its surroundings, and both villagers and the local government promised their utmost support.

However, Lin Chuxia politely declined even the best conditions offered.

Adding brilliance to something already beautiful is easy, but providing timely help in dire need is difficult. She couldn’t guarantee that if she truly established the herbal cultivation base locally, these government leaders wouldn’t change their stance.

In contrast, the conditions offered by Vice County Magistrate Zhang in Yun City were more enticing.

These leaders came looking forward to success but returned disappointed.

Lin Chuxia immediately decided to leave.

Before leaving, she gave Qin Yang a call.

Knowing Qin Yang worried about her trip, she frequently called him these past few days to assure him of her safety.

The guesthouse had a phone, and at the time Qin Yang was at work, so the call was quickly connected.

Lin Chuxia briefly mentioned her plan to shift to Yun City and refrained from discussing the events in Qingyan Village, only saying the environment there wasn’t suitable.

Qin Yang seemed genuinely concerned about her situation and asked for many details.

After catching up, he also updated Lin Chuxia about the home situation.

“Qi Qi misses you a lot, constantly talking about looking for mommy. If things aren’t going smoothly there, you can take your time. Establishing a pharmaceutical factory and the herbal cultivation base is significant; there’s no need to rush. We can proceed gradually.”

While Lin Chuxia verbally agreed, she suspected that besides Qi Qi missing her, Qin Yang might also be feeling uneasy.

She realized she had been away for over ten days, which was not a short period.

While talking on the phone, there was a knock on the room door from outside.

Gu Peng entered with his luggage, curious if she had finished packing, and seeing her on the phone again, he smirked and sat in a chair beside her to wait.

With someone else present, Lin Chuxia felt awkward about saying certain things.

Ultimately, all necessary things were discussed thoroughly, and the call ended shortly.

Only then did Gu Peng raise an eyebrow and ask, “Isn’t this exhausting for you? Going out and having a call every few days. If he’s so concerned, why doesn’t he accompany you?”

Lin Chuxia rolled her eyes, “What are you saying? He has work. How could he accompany me?”

Gu Peng retorted wistfully, “So you both might not necessarily be compatible. Two suitable people should accompany and support each other, right?”

Lin Chuxia looked at him, “Why do you think that way? Even in a marriage, there should be individual careers and ambitions. As long as the two hearts are together, that’s enough.”

“Is that so? But I think two people together should at least share similar values, so neither has to constantly accommodate the other. Besides, how can hearts be together if bodies aren’t?”

Lin Chuxia stared at Gu Peng; it was the first time she heard his views on relationships in both lifetimes.

So this was his perspective on gender relationships, no wonder he never married in the past life.

Though, his viewpoint seemed somewhat excessively nitpicky.

Lin Chuxia felt this wouldn’t do; if he continued with such views, wouldn’t he end up single for another lifetime?

She earnestly began, “Gu Peng, I think love is not about constant accommodation but rather about inclusion. A loving couple will support each other and show mutual respect. Since you haven’t had a girlfriend yet, you might not know the feeling of loving someone. Once you meet the one who makes you willing to give your feelings and respect, you’ll understand.”

Gu Peng coldly replied, “So, it’s all about compromising for the other person in the end.”

Lin Chuxia, “…”

Why was this child so stubborn?

………………

Upon arriving in Yun City, everything proceeded more smoothly with government officials accompanying them throughout.

Even the guesthouse accommodation was arranged by the government side.

Not only were the living conditions excellent, but the services were also comprehensive.

As Lin Chuxia predicted, with the government’s support, Yun City was heavily promoting Chinese herbal cultivation, although it was a recent initiative, the farmers were highly enthusiastic about growing herbs; it’s just their technical skills needed improvement.

This was easily resolved.

Back when the Qin Family Village set up vegetable greenhouses, she engaged Technician He from the Agricultural Research Institute for support.

She had maintained contact with Technician He over the years.

He mentioned that his senior, an expert in herbal cultivation, found the prospect very interesting.

He would personally come to provide guidance.

Soon, they selected a location perfect for establishing a herbal cultivation base.

Regarding the pharmaceutical factory, Yun City government also promised robust support, welcoming Lin Chuxia and her team to set up the plant.

The trip proved worthwhile.

Lin Chuxia’s team finalized the preliminary matters and signed agreements.

The remaining tasks could proceed step by step at a gradual pace.

In a blink of an eye, it’s been over a month, so Lin Chuxia must return.

Yu Fei had already returned half a month ago due to matters at the pharmacy.

However, after these events, he had some opinions on Qingyan Village and decided to procure herbs from Yun City in the future.

Thus, Lin Chuxia and Gu Peng boarded the train for the journey back.

………………

“Li Guangyuan, you scumbag, everything at home was earned through my hard work. Want me to leave empty-handed? Take a look at your own capabilities first.”

“My capabilities? Lin Chuxia, do you really think the earth stops revolving without you? I’m a man, and I’m the only son in the Li Family. Is it wrong for me to want to continue the family line? You can’t have children anymore. Are you suggesting that we let the Li Family end without descendants?”

“Think about it, Lin Chuxia. Why have we worked hard all this time? Isn’t it to preserve our family’s honor? I’ve said before, if you are willing, we don’t have to divorce. The child from another woman can be handed to you to raise. He will be your son then, can’t you be satisfied with this?”
