Chapter 250 Episode 14

With that face and those eyes, he could easily seduce any young girl.

For example, if you try to seduce her, she won't be able to refuse.

So Wen Yujiao leaned forward slightly and asked, "What if I say I've taken a liking to it?"

Wen Changyu looked into the little girl's bright eyes as she gazed at him, and suddenly fell silent.

You...you've taken a liking to someone?

He looked into Wen Yujiao's bright eyes. Apart from having short hair, Wen Yujiao was not ugly. In fact, she had beautiful features and a touch of heroism, giving her a unique kind of beauty.

Then she said...

"Xiao Wen, taste this syrup and see if it's sweet enough. If you don't think it's sweet enough, I'll add some brown sugar for you."

Just as Wen Changyu was in a daze, Wei Zhen arrived carrying two teacups of brown sugar water.

Wen Changyu quickly got up and took the brown sugar water from Wei Zhen's hand, "Thank you, Auntie, you've gone to so much trouble."

Wei Zhen waved her hand, "What are you saying? I'm very happy that you came. Don't leave at noon, have lunch here."

“It just so happens that Yu Jiao came from her hometown and brought a lot of wild game. I’ll cook it for you.”

This time, Wen Changyu refused no matter what. "No, Auntie, I have things to do at the army... I have things to do at the army."

He said he had other things to do at the military base, so Wei Zhen didn't want to force him to stay. She asked, "When are you free?"

"Come over for dinner!"

Wen Changyu thought of his previous life, when he went on a blind date with Xu Shanshan and began to pursue her intensely.

He didn't return to Beijing immediately, but instead used up his month-long vacation until the very last day. During that month, he went to the Xu family almost every day.

Xu's mother was in poor health. At that time, he not only bought large and small bags of things every time he went shopping, but also helped Xu's mother prepare medicine, cook, and take care of her.

Of course, Xu's mother still had some complaints about him, because she had asked him to bail out Xu's father.

The matter concerning Xu's father was serious enough, and it happened at a critical time. If he dared to try to take advantage of it, not only would his own future be ruined, but Xu's father would also be unable to get out.

Because he didn't claim the money, Xu's mother blamed him before she died, saying that a son-in-law is half a son, but he is not a son after all.

But he never ate a meal cooked by his mother-in-law until she passed away.

In fact, Xu's mother never invited him to stay for a meal.

During those times, he would cook for Xu's mother, and after he finished, she would never say, "Stay and eat with us!"

After each meal, he would say, "Auntie, I'm leaving."

Xu's mother sat behind the curtain and coughed and hummed.

Wei Zhen invited him to her home for dinner, and Wen Changyu, who was starting all over again, felt somewhat lost.

Just then, Wen Yujiao told him, "I hunted this rabbit myself. It's delicious when I make spicy rabbit. It's cold outside, so it's perfect to eat!"

Do you drink alcohol?

"I also brewed some wine myself; if you come, I'll treat you to some."

Unable to refuse such a kind offer, Wen Changyu nodded as if possessed.

As soon as Wen Changyu left, Wei Zhen asked her daughter, "Have you taken a liking to someone?"

Wen Yujiao nodded. "They're much better than those ugly, deformed people from before, and they look... like they have decent character."

Wei Zhen clapped her hands happily, "Upright, upright! Your father said he's a very honest, down-to-earth, and ambitious person, not at all pretentious."

“But judging from his expression, he doesn’t seem very interested in your daughter,” Wen Yujiao said to Wei Zhen.

Wei Zhen immediately said, "Then go ahead and pretend!"

"You're acting crazy all the time, no man could possibly be attracted to you!"

“This is Beijing, nobody knows you, and he doesn’t understand you. Just grow your hair long and be more mature, and that will be fine.”

After saying that, Wei Zhen suddenly remembered something, raised her hand and slapped Wen Yujiao across the face. "You idiot, why did you tell him that you hunted the rabbit yourself?"

"Oh dear, you...you're going to drive me crazy," Wei Zhen said, about to take off her shoe to hit her.

Wen Yujiao immediately dodged the question, asking, "So what?"

"This is the real me. He doesn't understand the real me. Even if he marries me, he won't truly love me. We'll end up fighting."

"You...you..." Wei Zhen was so angry that she couldn't speak.

——

Wen Changyu visited the Wen family for the second time, again at the invitation of Commander Wen. This time, he brought some famous pastries from the capital and two bottles of fine wine.

It had been almost a month since I last saw Wen Yujiao, and her hair seemed to have grown a bit. She tied it into a small bun at the back, which made her look even more playful.

"You're here!" Wen Yujiao greeted him.

Wen Changyu nodded and handed over the pastries he had brought. "I bought some of the better-selling pastries in the capital. I don't know if you like them."

"You bought this for me?" Wen Yujiao asked, pointing to herself with surprise.

"It's something I brought to their family, so it can also be considered a gift for her," Wen Changyu thought for a moment and nodded.

Wen Yujiao stretched out her hands and happily snatched it away, saying, "Thank you!"

Wen Changyu looked at his fingertips, which were scratched by the rope, and shook his head. "Whatever you like!"

"Yes, I like it, I really like it."

Before the dishes were served, Wen Dongdong followed Wen Yujiao around, acting like her little servant, "Auntie, does it feel good when I massage your back?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Can I have a piece?"

"Here, have a piece!"

As the pastries were handed over, Wen Yujiao turned her head in her chair and asked her nephew with a haughty air, "What should you have said?"

Wen Dongdong accepted the pastries with both hands, bowed, and said, "Thank you for the gift, Auntie! Long live Auntie!"

"Very well, Xiao Dongzi, rise!"

"Here, I'll give you two more pieces as a bonus!"

Wen Dongdong was even happier, "Long live my aunt! Long live my aunt!"

When Wei Zhen brought over the dishes and saw this scene, she felt like she'd been kicked in the head by a donkey.

He got kicked by his own stupid donkey.

She was seething with resentment towards Wen Yujiao, but she didn't dare to shout, for fear that Wen Changyu would notice.

But when their gaze fell upon Wen Changyu, they noticed that while tidying up the table, Wen Changyu was watching Wen Yujiao and his nephew with a gentle smile, showing no sign of displeasure.

Wei Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.

She was really afraid that people would be scared away by her daughter's crazy behavior again.

"Yu Jiao, what are you doing?"

"How could you let Xiao Wen do the work?" Wei Zhen said, first blaming Wen Yujiao.

She immediately put down the vegetables and tried to snatch the dishcloth from Wen Changyu's hand, saying, "You child, you've already brought so many things, how can I let you help with the chores?"

"Sit down, sit down. You don't need to do any work. There'll be one more dish and everything will be ready. Just sit down!"

"Yu Jiao," Wei Zhen called to her daughter again, and winked at her, "Keep talking to them!"

Wen Yujiao picked up a piece of pastry, put it in her mouth, waved to her mother, and signaled that her mother could rest assured.

Wei Zhen was still a little worried, but judging from his appearance, this Xiao Wen seemed to be a nice person.

As soon as Wei Zhen left the main room, Wen Yujiao said, "Sit down!"

Wen Changyu nodded and sat down obediently.

Wen Yujiao found it amusing. "You've always been this obedient?"

"Um?"

Wen Yujiao waved her hand, "Let me put it another way, have you always listened to girls like this?"

Wen Changyu's face was flushed and hot under the dim light, but his skin was dark from years of exposure to the sun and wind, so it was hard to tell in the dim light.

He shook his head.
