Chapter 114 I Don’t Want to Become a House Fighting Master
After being rejected for the first time, Ye Tingxiao felt useless and frustrated. Looking at Du Wanwan's back as she walked angrily towards the school gate, he clenched his fists, unwilling to give in, but helpless.
Brothers? How dare you say that? How can a man and a woman be brothers? You want to be brothers, but I don't.
Du Wanwan! Remember this, I want to be your wife, not your brother.
It will take several months for me to recover from my illness. Don’t be anxious or angry. I will marry you home one day.
Ye Er was guarding the gate of the training ground. He saw Du Wanwan come out first, followed by his master. Both of them seemed to be in a bad mood and looked unhappy, and they didn't say a word.
He was wondering why his master had a quarrel with Miss Du? Didn't his master always respect Miss Du? What happened?
Although he was confused, he didn't dare to say anything. Seeing Ye Yi running towards him with a cloth bag and a look of excitement on his face, Ye Er quickly grabbed him.
He nudged the two people in the carriage and asked anxiously, "What's going on?"
Yoruichi was so excited that he was incoherent: "Crossbow, rapid-fire, twelve."
Ye Er glared at him and didn't ask any more questions. The two of them were not on the same wavelength at all, and even if he wanted to ask, he couldn't get the answer. This idiot had no sense at all.
"What's wrong? How did I offend you?" Ye Yi glared at Ye Er, "Get in the car."
Ye Er shook his head, silently sat on the shaft of the carriage, and cracked the whip skillfully. Ye Yi jumped up next, holding a cloth bag in his hand, with a smile on his face that he couldn't hide even if he wanted to.
In the carriage, Du Wanwan lay carelessly on the couch, closing her eyes to rest, not wanting to waste any more time talking to Ye Tingxiao.
When she came here, she really had no intention of getting married, but this man seemed to have taken crazy medicine and kept pestering her.
He is simply too stubborn.
The ancients always paid attention to the marriage between the two families. His family was the Marquis of Pingyang, and they were nobles. What about his own family? A commoner who fled from famine, let alone not being able to marry into the family, even if he did, he would be ridiculed.
The inequality between the two factions clearly shows that one is inferior to the other.
Besides, she was used to being free and alone in her previous life, and she wanted to be alone in this life too, without having to accommodate anyone.
Live the way you love, why put yourself at risk?
Is it so easy to enter the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion? She had met Ye Tingxiao's mother before. She looked kind and gentle, but who knew what kind of face she would have towards her daughter-in-law?
She had watched a lot of palace fighting dramas in her previous life. The mistresses of the big families were all sweet-mouthed but treacherous, saying one thing in front of others and another behind their backs.
And what about herself? She never liked to be mean and do whatever made her feel comfortable. If she really married Ye Tingxiao, would she also have to learn how to fight at home?
With her skills, she wasn't afraid of not being able to defeat him, she just didn't have the patience to deal with him. Wouldn't it be better for her to see more patients if she had the time?
She refused Ye Tingxiao's proposal without even thinking about it. She had finally lived a second life and didn't want to become an expert in house fighting. There was no need for that.
Du Wanwan didn't say anything and pretended to sleep. Ye Tingxiao didn't dare to say anything either. He could see that it was his identity that had implicated him.
If he was a commoner, perhaps Miss Du would agree.
But his identity was really not his fault. He was born as the young master of the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion, and later became the crown prince.
If Wanwan really dislikes it, shouldn't he mention it to his parents and let his younger brother be the prince? The problem is, if he mentions it, will his parents agree?
The two of them were still thinking about all sorts of things when they arrived at the People's Clinic.
Outside the carriage, Ye Yi's voice came: "Du Dalang! We're here."
Du Wanwan opened her eyes, glanced at Ye Tingxiao, and said in a rude tone, "Brother! See you later! Let's go!"
Ye Tingxiao said nothing, but nodded with a faint smile: "I'll come see you in a few days."
Du Wanwan didn't object. She turned her back to him and waved, "Goodbye!"
Although he didn't understand what "goodbye" meant, Ye Tingxiao still said it, and then rode forward with the clatter of his horse's hooves.
In front of the county magistrate's mansion, Ye Tingxiao got off the carriage, took the cloth bag from Ye Yi's hand, and walked quickly towards his father Ye Zhenghai's study.
Ye Zhenghai was reading a book at the moment. When he saw his son come in, he glanced at him in surprise, and then his eyes fell on the book again.
He asked casually, "Why are you here to see me at this time?"
"It's a big deal!" Ye Tingxiao closed the door of the study and signaled to Ye Yi and Ye Er who followed him, "Guard them."
"yes!"
The two of them answered in unison, one on each side, standing guard at the study door.
Putting down the book, Ye Zhenghai stared at his son: "What's the big deal?"
Ye Tingxiao didn't say anything. He opened the cloth bag, took out a crossbow and placed it in front of Ye Zhenghai.
Then, Ye Zhenghai's eyes widened, he picked up the crossbow and looked left and right, then asked: "Where did it come from?"
"Miss Du gave it to me." Ye Tingxiao lowered his voice.
"What?" Putting down the crossbow, Ye Zhenghai confirmed again, "Are you telling the truth?"
"Dad! How dare I say anything about such a big thing?" Ye Tingxiao's expression was extremely serious, with a hint of frustration. "Miss Du said that she gave this thing to me and asked me not to mention it to anyone."
Ye Zhenghai was surprised: "Why? Doesn't she want the credit?"
This Miss Du is really interesting. She invented such an advanced crossbow, but she didn't do it to seek credit or reward? Then what does she want?
Exhaling a long breath, Ye Tingxiao sat down on a chair beside him: "I went to ask her for the prescription for the pills, but I was afraid she wouldn't give it to me, so I told her about the current situation.
She was afraid that Liang County would be lost and that she would have to flee with her family again, so she gave me this. She told me to hold on to Liang County and not let her flee with her family."
"Oh?" Ye Zhenghai was interested in his son's words. "This Miss Du you know is really a strange person. In order to avoid fleeing famine, she took out such a good thing?"
"Yes, that's what she said. Dad! I've tried this crossbow. It's extremely fast and can fire all at once. If I find a craftsman to make it, the demons will be terrified."
Thinking about Du Wanwan's refusal to marry him, Ye Tingxiao felt very uncomfortable. Even though he had obtained good things, he was in no mood to arrange them and planned to leave it to his father.
He had to form his own commando team as soon as possible, this was the most important thing. After he had the crossbow, he also had to have people.
"Dad! I want to build a team of thirty-six people, and Miss Du gave me a very good suggestion."
"What suggestions?"
Ye Zhenghai was very interested in Du Wanwan, and for the first time in his life he felt that he had misjudged someone.
Even though he had never met Miss Du, he heard from his wife that she was a doctor who liked to dress up as a man, and apart from being pretty, there was nothing special about her.
But this little girl who had fled from famine often brought him surprises. She was a doctor, so it was not surprising that she could make pills, but why could she also make weapons?
Is she really a simple little girl?
How could such a simple little girl know so much? How could she always surprise and delight him?
What kind of girl is she?
