If we're talking about the person with the most complicated relationship with Xia Chuhe, then it has to be Bu Yi.
Xia Chuhe saved Bu Yi, Bu Yi saved Xia Chuhe, and Xia Chuhe saved Bu Yi again...
Now, the debt of gratitude between the two has become so complicated that it is impossible to unravel.
The two parties involved were alright, but Xia Qingxue and Lu Xingyi treated Bu Yi like Xia Chuhe's second mother, being incredibly enthusiastic towards her.
Xia Qingxue was almost ready to call Bu Yi "sister".
The slightly introverted Bu Yi couldn't resist such enthusiasm, and every time he saw the two of them, he couldn't help but take a detour.
Even in the familiar Taotie City, Bu Yi can first use the fortune-telling method to calculate the auspiciousness before choosing a route.
It is likely that the ideas behind divination influenced the effectiveness of seeking good fortune.
If the result is "Great Fortune", "Good Fortune", or "Neutral", it means that you will not encounter Xia Qingxue and Lu Xingyi on this road today.
If the words "inauspicious" or "extremely inauspicious" appear, then one must not travel that road again.
...
Although Bu Yi avoids the couple, some people want to be with them every day.
For example, Xia Bao'er.
Bao'er recognized Xia Qingxue as her godmother and even held a special family reunion banquet.
She now has a proper name, Xia Suye.
It symbolizes abundant millet fields, a bountiful harvest, and full granaries.
On the day of the formal family reunion, Xia Chuhe caught a big red rooster for her, Lu Danggui cut two bolts of red and white cloth, Li Yue steamed a hundred steamed buns, Wang Yan slaughtered a pig, Shan Hua prepared a banquet, and Li Qiusheng and Bu Yi were responsible for providing psychological counseling to Bao'er.
The girl, who was usually fearless and dared to set fire to the mountain, was flustered and at a loss for words on the day of the family reunion.
Fortunately, she doesn't have to do anything; she just needs to call out "Mom" at the right time.
Xia Qingxue and Lu Xingyi took this matter very seriously. They wore brand-new clothes, wrapped two large red envelopes, ordered new clothes for Bao'er, and prepared a golden rice spoon symbolizing healthy growth.
After the formal family reunion, Bao'er received a new name: Xia Suye.
Halfway through the family reunion banquet, a torrential downpour began both inside and outside the city.
After some divination, it turned out that the Dragon Girl was sitting on the ground crying!
She cried because she worked hard every day to water the fields, yet she was still a little cabbage that no one cared for or loved, with only a mother hen who never abandoned her...
So Xia Chuhe organized a second family reunion banquet overnight and found a third daughter for her mother.
The second family reunion banquet had an additional protagonist: a plump hen, full of energy and with its own water and rice bowls.
Besides that, there is another difference.
The dragon girl has a name: Gu Da.
Xia Qingxue and Lu Xingyi don't need to think of another one.
...
The controversy surrounding the family reunion had barely subsided for two days when a third person appeared who wanted to claim kinship.
For some unknown reason, Lu Dangui chased after Lu Xingyi, calling him "brother."
Xia Chuhe was so worried that she had a headache and pulled out clumps of hair. It was a rather absurd feeling, like, "I treated you like a sister, but you want to be my aunt."
Under Xia Chuhe's persistent questioning, Lu Dangui finally revealed the reason why she wanted to be her aunt: "Well... being your elder would allow me to take care of you legitimately..."
"...Thank you. If you want to take care of me, you can do it now. I need a nanny." Xia Chuhe was exasperated. "No, who gave you this terrible idea? Even if you knew your true identity, wasn't your first thought to be to become my sister?"
Lu Dangui whispered, "That's what Wei Qianjin said. She said that according to genetics, the closest relationship between you and me is that of aunt and niece."
Xia Chuhe smiled. "Very good, we've caught the culprit."
A few days later, a major news story broke in Taotie City that sparked heated discussions.
The usually secretive research institute will be releasing information on some romance drama projects related to people's livelihoods and their progress. We welcome everyone's supervision.
Wei Qianjin wailed, "You heartless Xia Chuhe, you're trying to kill me!"
Just doing research is already stressful enough for her, and now she's being pressured to do more research, she's practically living a life of despair.
As we all know, it's common for scientific research to go for one or two years without any progress.
“I was wrong, I shouldn’t have retaliated against you, can you take back this rule?” Wei Qianjin followed behind Xia Chuhe, repeating like a broken record.
"No, keep up the good work! I have faith in you, you're a once-in-a-million scientific genius!"
Upon hearing Wei Qianjin's name, Xia Chuhe knew why she had done this.
Once the true path to enlightenment is found, the false path to enlightenment need not be preserved.
The real Lu Danggui casually exposed the identity of the fake Lu Danggui, who turned out to be an old witch who had lived for an unknown amount of time and possessed countless other people's bodies!
The old witch is Lu Yunzhao, also known as Old Lu, and also... someone who dates back thousands of years.
It was probably because she was too old and somewhat confused, coupled with her overconfidence, that she ended up in prison.
On the last day Xia Chuhe saw her, Old Lu provoked her as usual, certain that she wouldn't dare kill him.
Unexpectedly, Xia Chuhe fired a shot.
Even on his deathbed, Old Master Lu couldn't understand why Xia Chuhe could bear to kill Lu Dangui's body, nor could he comprehend that Lu Dangui had been prepared and had left himself a backup plan.
Mr. Lu's death did not harm anyone.
Apart from Wei Qianjin.
Miss Wei is filled with hatred!
Her enemy was killed twice, and neither time was she personally responsible!
twice!
twice!
Every summer, when the farmer hoes the fields, he comes to stir things up!
So... she always had to make Xia Chuhe unhappy before she could feel happy herself.
After finally getting the chance, he used Lu Danggui to make things difficult for Xia Chuhe, but in the end, he still ended up hurting himself.
