Chapter 538 Special

Qin Huiyin woke up from a nap and vaguely heard singing. She leaned against the window and listened curiously.

"Miss, you're awake." A maid with dark skin and cute dimples walked in. "I found some food for you, see if it suits your taste."

"I'm just hungry, thank you." Qin Huiyin turned and walked over, "What's your name?"

"My name is Maner."

"Maner, my name is Qin Huiyin."

"Miss, I am responsible for serving you. Tell Man'er if you have any instructions."

"What's that singing outside?"

"It's the singing of tea pickers." Maner said, "Recently, the tea mountains are picking new tea. Everyone is happy and will sing a few lines."

"How many people are here?" Qin Huiyin asked curiously.

"Except for those who have been living outside, there are probably more than 10,000 people who have lived in this Wuxiang Valley for a long time!"

Qin Huiyin was surprised.

This paradise can actually accommodate so many people, it is equivalent to a small town.

"I'm going to live here for a while, and I don't know if you guys here will dislike outsiders. If there are any taboos, please remind me, and I will definitely pay attention to them."

"Miss, don't be so nervous. You have even entered the master's study. What else can be taboo here? The master's chamber is next door. I heard that you are the master's good friend outside and someone he trusts very much. Miss Huan'er once liked this room very much, but the master did not agree to let her live in it."

"Hearing you say that, I feel a little embarrassed." Qin Huiyin touched the hair by her ear. "Man'er, how many years have you lived here?"

"More than ten years." Maner said, "I was born here."

Qin Huiyin looked at Man'er in front of her. The girl was younger than her, which meant that this Wuxiang Valley had only existed for a dozen years.

But it’s true that the aristocratic families were suppressed more than ten years ago.

Qin Huiyin tasted the bird's nest porridge sent by Man'er and said, "Man'er, this bird's nest porridge is too expensive. Next time, just make something else to eat."

"Bird's nest porridge is indeed expensive. Even the lord was reluctant to eat it before and only gave it to Miss Huan'er." Maner said.

"Can I use your kitchen?" Qin Huiyin asked.

"Of course! The lord said that you can do whatever you want, and there is no need to restrict you."

Qin Huiyin went to the kitchen and saw more than a dozen chefs and handymen there, and greeted them.

"Hello, I want to see what kind of food you have here."

"Miss, please feel free to look around. We grow all the ingredients here ourselves. We occasionally buy some from outside, but not much, so our ingredients are very limited. If there is something you like that we don't have here, you can tell Chef Li and he will write it down and buy it next time you go shopping."

Qin Huiyin was originally a little restrained, but when she saw these people being so kind to her, that sense of restraint disappeared completely.

"I'm not picky about food. I'll eat whatever you cook. I just wanted to see what's available and make some cough soup for...your lord."

Qin Huiyin found white radish and tangerine peel, made a cup of radish and tangerine peel tea, and took it to Puyang Qiubai's study.

There was a crying sound coming from inside. Hearing this sound, Qin Huiyin didn't dare to knock on the door, so she waited at the door for a while.

"Marriage is something that should be agreed upon by both parties. Besides, we have so many things to do right now. If Congfeng wants to postpone it, he can do so. If you keep pushing him to marry you, you're only hurting yourself."

"But brother..." Puyang Hua said aggrievedly, "No matter what great things you accomplish, it will not affect the marriage."

"I won't force Congfeng to do something he doesn't like. He's not willing to do it now, which means he's not ready yet. Don't think about pestering him all day long, and do something you like. You are weak, so listen to the doctor and take good care of yourself. Otherwise, even if he wants to marry you, you are not in good health, and it will be difficult for you to have children in the end."

"I know. I will definitely take good care of myself. Brother, who is that Miss Qin? I see that Brother Feng and you are quite familiar with her. Why does she live next door to you? You don't even let me live in that room?"

"Yinyin is my little disciple, who once saved my life and Congfeng's. She is only staying here temporarily, and won't stay for a few days. She only knows Congfeng and me here. If I don't arrange for her to stay by my side, should I arrange her with Congfeng?"

"Then I'd better arrange it by your side. Brother Congfeng needs to take care of me!" Puyang Huan said, "Then I'll leave first."

Puyang Huan walked out and saw Qin Huiyin coming from the opposite side. She smiled sweetly at her and said, "Hello, sister."

Qin Huiyin smiled and said, "Hello, Miss Puyang."

"Sister, just call me Huan'er." Puyang Huan looked at the soup bowl she was holding, "What is this?"

"Radish tea." Qin Huiyin said, "Miss Puyang, would you like to try it?"

Puyang Hua covered her mouth and nose with a strange expression: "No, I don't like eating radishes."

Does this person want to give the radish to her brother?

It seems that he comes from a poor family and treats radishes as treasures and gives them to others to taste.

"Then I'll go in."

"Okay." Puyang Huan moved to the side to make room.

Qin Huiyin walked in holding a cup of radish and tangerine peel tea.

"Master, I made you some radish and tangerine peel tea. It has the effect of reducing phlegm and relieving cough. Try it."

Puyang Qiubai put down what he was holding and walked over: "Yinyin, thank you."

"What are you thanking me for?" Qin Huiyin was puzzled.

Puyang Qiubai took the tea she poured and took a sip.

——Of course, thank you for seeing my vulnerability.

As the lord of the Wuxiang Alliance, everyone has high hopes for him, but who can see his powerlessness and fragility?

"Is it not tasty enough? I brought some honey. I'll add some to it for you."

"No, this is just right." Puyang Qiubai smiled, "Did you sleep well? It's too late today, I'll take you for a walk in the valley tomorrow to see the scenery here. Although this is a valley, it's a different world. Everyone has lived here for more than ten years, and has built it like a town. There is also a market here. Although it's not like the outside world where you can get everything you want, it's also fun."

"Master, I feel that you have lost a lot of weight this time." Qin Huiyin said, "Do you really want to be the lord of this Wuxiang League?" Puyang Qiubai drank radish and tangerine peel tea: "We have a blood feud."

"I heard that there are more than 10,000 people here. There should be many of your people outside. Do these people have a blood feud?"

Puyang Qiubai was silent.

Of course not.

Ninety percent of these people were recruited or rescued by them.

"I don't understand the hatred in your hearts. I only know that human life is limited. Every time we open our eyes, we are actually counting down. One more day of life means one day closer to death. So time is a very precious thing. We should make ourselves happy all the time and leave no regrets."
