Chapter 53 The Imperial Sword



"Auntie, I was just speaking the truth, I didn't specifically help anyone, so don't take it to heart."

Seeing that Xie Zhiqing hadn't repaid the favor, Yang Chunhua was even more satisfied. "Then we should still thank you. Honghui is a shy boy, so please don't take offense."

As she spoke, she secretly pinched Zhao Honghui's lower back.

Hey kid, would it kill you to say something?

Xie Yuyao covered her mouth and laughed. What a "shy" person she was!

Yang Chunhua added, "I'm worried that if you continue to live with Jiang, you'll face retaliation. That's why I wanted to invite you to stay at my house. Chunling said you two have a good relationship, and you'll have each other's company."

After hearing her purpose, Xie Yuyao smiled and declined, "Thank you, but our educated youth team has handled it internally, so there won't be any problems."

After saying this, she looked up at Zhao Honghui and told him with her eyes that everything was alright.

Zhao Honghui was worried. "She's ruthless to herself, she won't be any softer on you. We won't be at ease if something happens to you because of this."

"Don't worry, she values ​​her life and won't risk it." Xie Yuyao glanced back at the direction of the east room and said no more. "I'll see you off."

Zhao Honghui then pulled Yang Chunhua, who refused to give up, and the three of them walked to an open space outside the courtyard.

Yang Chunhua was unwilling to give up. "Xie Zhiqing, may I call you Yaoyao?"

"...Please feel free to do as you please."

"Yaoyao, you should always be wary of others. You should think it over carefully. You are a benefactor of Honghui. We will definitely treat you well if you come to our home."

Seeing Yang Chunhua's determination, Xie Yuyao had no choice but to tell her about building the house.

"Thank you, Auntie. My house is already under construction. I'll be careful during this time."

Unexpectedly, Yang Chunhua's eyes lit up when she heard this, and an idea suddenly popped into her mind.

“Honghui, then you should leave work earlier from now on and come back to help build the house.”

Zhao Honghui immediately agreed: "Okay."

"......"

"No need to trouble yourself, Uncle Jianguo and the others are enough..."

Before Xie Yuyao could finish speaking, Yang Chunhua interrupted her.

"Yaoyao, more people means more strength, and it'll be finished sooner, right? He may not have much else, but he's got boundless energy. It's settled then!"

"......"

Xie Yuyao was extremely embarrassed; it seemed she didn't know the two had a past relationship.

If she knew the reason for their breakup, would she still have tried so hard to reunite them?

Coincidentally, while mowing the lawn during the day, Zhao Chunling also boasted about Zhao Honghui's many good qualities and talked about many things from his childhood.

She genuinely felt that Yuyao deserved the best man, and looking across the entire Qingshan Village, no one could beat her nephew Zhao Honghui.

Although he was a bit serious, he was an upright person and would never let her down.

If they could get married, Xie Yuyao would become her family, and they could stay together forever.

At that time, she was still a child at heart and never imagined that she would get married one day.

Xie Yuyao listened with a smile as she chattered like a bird, and her once quiet heart began to stir again.

If we're talking about today's suicide attempt, Jiang Yan's only chance of winning is to use the pressure of public opinion to force him to blurt out that he wants to marry her on the spot.

Even if she hadn't interrupted Zhao Honghui, he would have resolutely refused.

The more disappointed Jiang Yan was in him, the more Xie Yuyao admired him.

In today's environment that advocates selfless dedication, it is extremely rare to find someone who can uphold principles and not be morally coerced.

What a pity...

*

That evening, Zhao Honghui carried a bag of pork and chicken cakes into the educated youth compound.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Yan immediately put on a pitiful look and quickly went to greet her.

"Brother Zhao, thank you for saving me again. I was just being impulsive this morning, and I will never try to take my own life again."

Xie Yuyao, who was picking vegetables: ......

Even after all this, she still won't give up?

Zhao Honghui's gaze quickly locked onto Xie Yuyao, his eyes softening, but the words that came out of his mouth were: "Whether you live or die, what does it have to do with me?"

Jiang Yan's eyes instantly filled with tears. How could he be so cold-hearted?

It must be said that she had never known Zhao Honghui.

At first, she was attracted by his appearance, and later she wanted to marry him and follow him to the army to escape the rural environment.

Later, seeing that he had been seriously injured and had to change careers, he had already given up.

This scheme stemmed from her inability to bear seeing the man she once admired become a couple with Xie Yuyao, whom she resented. This obsessive desire led her to insist on marrying Zhao Honghui.

From beginning to end, she only thought about herself. She didn't care about Zhao Honghui's personality, hobbies, or whether they were suitable for each other.

It was as if by getting him, she would have defeated Xie Yuyao and become the queen.

Zhao Honghui walked past her, stood in front of Xie Yuyao, and handed her the bag, saying, "My mom asked me to bring this over."

"......"

"I'll go to the backyard to see how Uncle Jiefang is doing."

Xie Yuyao stared in disbelief as he casually placed the bag on the table and then walked towards the backyard.

A helpless smile appeared on her stunned face.

And so, Zhao Honghui, armed with the imperial sword, openly and legitimately stepped into the territory of the educated youth compound once again.

Yang Shumei, who was in the main room, couldn't help but laugh when she saw her change of expression.

This afternoon, Zhao Jianbin brought a sickle and books to the foot of the mountain.

After he finished cutting the grass for Yang Shumei, the two sat down to read their own books, occasionally exchanging words, a peaceful and beautiful scene.

She hopes her best friend can be happy every day and live a happy life.

When the food was ready, Xie Yuyao went to the backyard as usual to call Uncle Jiefang and the others who were building the house to eat.

Unlike before, there was a man on the construction site wearing only a tight T-shirt, his muscles clearly defined.

Xie Yuyao's heart skipped a beat; those damn hormones!

When Zhao Honghui, who was working, saw her gentle and focused gaze, a blush rose on his fair cheeks, making him look incredibly beautiful.

His blood boiled instantly, and a strong desire raged within him, a yearning to cherish this woman fiercely.

"Uncle Jiefang, dinner's ready!" Yang Shumei called out as they waited for a while.

The two then came to their senses and hurriedly looked away.

Back in the main room, Zhao Honghui sat down and ate dinner with everyone.

Seeing the various braised meats and dishes on the table, wafting with the aroma of soy sauce, he looked at Xie Yuyao in surprise. Had she really managed to make this?

Zhao Jiefang greeted him familiarly, "Honghui, quickly try the cooking of the two educated youths, I guarantee you'll want to eat it again and again."

Hearing his words, Zhao Honghui felt a pang of sadness; he hadn't even tried it yet.

I tried all the braised dishes, and I have to say, these braised meats are definitely a hit.

He didn't hold back in giving his approval, saying, "It really is delicious."

After the meal, Zhao Jiefang and his companions didn't linger and went straight home.

"Yaoyao, I have something to tell you."

After Zhao Honghui finished tidying up, he told Yuyao to go for a walk outside the courtyard.

Wrapped in a bright red cape-like scarf, Xie Yuyao followed him for a walk outside the courtyard, as if she had returned to the past.
