Chapter 26 Grapes



The next morning, after getting up, Liu Tangxi went to cook.

After finishing the meal, seeing that Wei Hanzhou had not returned yet, he heard Li ask Bosheng to go to the mountain to call Wei Hanzhou. Thinking about the matter lingering in his mind, he took the initiative to ask for leave and went out.

After reaching the mountain, Liu Tangxi went to the orchard first. She didn't remember which tree she had touched that day, so she just touched each tree in order. While touching, she muttered sincerely, "It must be delicious, it must be delicious."

After touching them, Liu Tangxi looked up at the red apples hanging on the tree, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and a big smile appeared on his face.

She stared at Ping Guo for a while, then remembered that she had not found Wei Hanzhou yet, so she turned around and prepared to look for him.

However, as soon as he turned around, he found that Wei Hanzhou had been standing behind him since some point.

Looking at Wei Hanzhou in front of him with deep and calm eyes, Liu Tangxi was startled and a look of fear appeared on his face.

This was the first time she had the same idea as Bosheng and Fu Yao, thinking that Wei Hanzhou was a terrible person.

I don’t know if Wei Hanzhou saw her strange behavior or heard her strange words just now.

"What...what are you doing?" Liu Tangxi asked Wei Hanzhou.

Compared to Liu Tangxi's nervousness, Wei Hanzhou seemed very calm. He looked calm and asked, "Madam, what are you doing?"

Liu Tangxi pursed her lips and said, "I... this is... this is..."

After hesitating for a few words, Liu Tangxi gradually came to her senses when she saw that Wei Hanzhou was still indifferent. Even if Wei Hanzhou saw her strange behavior, what would it matter? She hadn't done anything wrong, and no one would take it seriously even if she told others about it.

As he thought about it, Liu Tangxi's expression gradually returned to normal.

"Of course I'm here to see you, my husband~" Liu Tangxi's face was full of smiles.

"Oh, really?" Wei Hanzhou asked in a very light tone.

I don’t know whether I believed it or not.

Liu Tangxi smiled and said, "Of course, mother just asked me to come and look for my husband, fearing that he was too engrossed in his book and forgot to eat. Halfway through the journey, I saw the apple orchard, and wondered if my husband would be there, so I came to take a look. Sure enough, he was really here. My husband, you've been delayed for too long, let's go back quickly, the food is getting cold, otherwise mother will be unhappy."

Seeing Liu Tangxi trying to turn the tables, Wei Hanzhou pursed his lips, looked at her deeply, and walked down the mountain without saying a word.

When passing by an apple tree at the edge, Wei Hanzhou reached out and picked a small green apple from it, wiped it, and took a bite.

Liu Tangxi was originally quite nervous, feeling entangled in what had just happened. But when she saw Wei Hanzhou eating an apple, she immediately forgot what she was worried about and walked over quickly.

"Is it delicious?" Liu Tangxi asked expectantly.

Wei Hanzhou looked at her deeply and said, "It's delicious."

Suddenly, a smile appeared on Liu Tangxi's face, with his eyes curved.

Looking at this smile, Wei Hanzhou was slightly startled, quickly turned his gaze away, and calmly walked down the mountain.

When they got home, Li saw that they had finally returned and asked casually, "Why are you so slow?"

Liu Tangxi felt a little guilty and wanted to push the matter to Wei Hanzhou as he had just done, but he couldn't bring himself to say it. While he was hesitating, Wei Hanzhou spoke.

"Well, my son forgot the time while reading. Thanks to my mother for asking me to come back."

Liu Tangxi raised his eyebrows and looked at Wei Hanzhou who was explaining seriously at the side.

After hearing this, Li looked at Liu Tangxi and said with a smile, "It was your wife who took the initiative to ask you to come back. She felt sorry for you and was afraid that you were hungry."

Wei Hanzhou turned and looked at Liu Tangxi.

Liu Tangxi didn't expect Li to say that, and his eyes were filled with confusion.

"Thank you, ma'am." Wei Hanzhou thanked.

Liu Tangxi smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "My husband, you are too polite."

Li smiled at her son and daughter-in-law and said, "Okay, go wash your hands and have dinner."

"Okay, Mom, I'll come right over."

Now that the grain has been harvested, there is not much work to do in the fields, so Wei Daniu and Wei Erhu go to the town early in the morning to do odd jobs.

The work in the fields was given to Li and Zhang. After dinner, the two went to the fields.

Liu Tangxi teaches her three children to read at home.

Originally, I should have taught Fu Yao and Shu Lan how to embroider at this time, but Liu Tangxi felt that she was more energetic in the morning and it would be a waste to use the time for embroidery, so it would be better to use it for reading.

Zhou was a little unhappy about this at first, thinking that her daughter's literacy would delay her embroidery, but she was convinced by Wei Erhu.

"You have never been out of the house, so you don't know the difficulties of being illiterate. My elder brother and I learned a few words from Han Zhou, so we were able to find a good job in the town and earn two or three more coins than others. Moreover, I heard that the girls from the rich families in the county town can also read. If our Fuyao can read, it will be much better than being able to embroider."

After hearing this, Zhou said nothing.

Liu Tangxi got a piece of wood and some pot soda, and wrote for the three little kids on the board.

After teaching for a while and playing, someone came to the town.

The visitor picked up a few apples from the basket, tasted them, and then started to weigh them.

After a while, all the apples picked the day before were taken away.

Liu Tangxi felt very complicated, happy but also disappointed.

I am happy because I made a lot of money, but I am sad because I can’t eat an apple every now and then.

However, looking up at the bunches of grapes on the grape rack, Liu Tangxi's saliva started to flow again.

Fu Yao saw Liu Tangxi wanted to pick grapes and quickly stopped her.

"Auntie, the grapes at home are not tasty."

Shu Lan also showed a grimace, her face wrinkled, and said, "It's sour."

"The apples are delicious this year, maybe the grapes will be delicious too." Liu Tangxi said with a smile.

"Really?" Shu Lan murmured as she looked at the grapes above her head.

"Whether it tastes good or not, you'll know if you let Third Auntie taste it for you first," said Liu Tangxi.

Hearing this, the three little kids all turned their eyes towards her.

Liu Tangxi moved a chair, stood on it, picked a bunch of grapes, fetched some water from the well to wash them, and then picked the grapes one by one and put them in the bowl.

Liu Tangxi brought the bowl under the grape trellis and tasted a grape amid the expectation of the crowd.

The moment she put it in her mouth, Liu Tangxi was so happy that she almost wanted to cry.

The time-travel god really treated her well, giving her such a golden finger that everything she ate tasted delicious.

She must live a good life and eat all the delicacies in the world, so that her life will not be in vain.

Seeing Liu Tangxi's excitement, Shulan swallowed her saliva and asked, "Auntie, is it delicious?"

Liu Tangxi nodded quickly, handed the bowl to the three little kids, and said, "It's very delicious, try it."

When everyone heard Liu Tangxi say this, out of trust in Liu Tangxi, they all took a grape.

After eating one, I couldn't stop, so I took the second and the third.

Soon, the bunch of grapes was finished by them.

Not to mention the children, even Liu Tangxi didn’t eat enough.

So they ate a second skewer, and a third skewer, until their bellies were full.

Wei Hanzhou stood at the window and watched for a while. It would have been fine if it was just a child, but Liu Tangxi was actually squatting on the ground and eating with relish like a child.

Seeing them touching their bellies with smiles on their faces, Wei Hanzhou suddenly found it difficult to tell who was the child.

Liu Tangxi didn't know that Wei Hanzhou was watching her. After finishing her meal, she rested for a while, then picked up the "Three Character Classic" and began to teach the little kids how to read.

While the little kid was reciting with his head shaking, Liu Tangxi sneaked up behind them and picked a grape when they were not paying attention. He peeled it without washing it and put it into his mouth.

After eating, seeing that they had finished reciting, he said, "Well, very good, do it again."

Then, the little bean's voice rang out again.

Liu Tangxi picked two more grapes and ate them.

As soon as the food entered my mouth, I noticed a line of sight.

Seeing Wei Hanzhou open the study door and come out, Liu Tangxi glared at him.

What's wrong? He cares if she eats a grape?

Wei Hanzhou glanced at her meaningfully and walked towards them.

Liu Tangxi thought he was going to say something to her, her eyes widened, threatening him. However, she was wrong, Wei Hanzhou stopped in front of her, glanced at the grapes in her hand, then glanced at the children sitting there reciting their lessons seriously, full of sarcasm.

"What for?" Liu Tangxi asked unhappily.

Is Wei Hanzhou mocking her for stealing food and saying she is worse than a child?

So angry!

Unexpectedly, Wei Hanzhou ignored her, walked past them and walked towards the toilet not far away.

It really looks like a little cat that got caught eating something and became angry!

Where Liu Tangxi couldn't see, Wei Hanzhou showed a slight smile.

However, the smile was very shallow and disappeared quickly, so Liu Tangxi naturally didn't see it.

"Oh, I was scared to death. When did Third Uncle come here?" Bosheng muttered softly.

"Who knows?" Liu Tangxi said dejectedly.

"It's a good thing that Third Uncle is gone." Fu Yao agreed in a low voice.

"It's good to go. Come on, let's continue." Liu Tangxi said.

However, Liu Tangxi stopped stealing grapes after that.

It was a hot day today. Seeing Li and Zhang coming back from the fields, Liu Tangxi thought the grapes outside were good and the apples at home had been shipped away, so he thought of picking some for them to eat.

Bosheng followed Wei Hanzhou to study.

Shulan followed Liu Tangxi and went to pick grapes together.

When Liu Tangxi saw Wei Hanzhou teaching Bosheng to read in the study, his eyes rolled and he suddenly had an idea.

After picking a few bunches of grapes, Liu Tangxi looked at the grapes on another rack, lowered his head to look at Shulan, and asked: "Shulan, is your uncle good to you?"

Shu Lan smiled and said, "Yes, Uncle San is the best. He always buys delicious food for me."

"Your uncle is so tired from studying, would you like to pick a bunch of delicious grapes for him?"

"OK!"

After Shulan picked a bunch, Liu Tangxi put her down and the two of them went to wash the grapes.

Liu Tangxi said a bunch of nonsense and asked Shulan to wash the grapes for Wei Hanzhou personally.

After washing the grapes, Liu Tangxi brought them to the main room.

After eating the grapes, Li and others praised them for being delicious.

Shu Lan looked at the grapes she had washed and frowned.

"Er Ni'er, what's going on?" asked Li.

Shu Lan pursed her lips and said, "Grandma, I washed this for Uncle San."

Li smiled and said, "Your uncle loves you well. You even wash grapes for him yourself."

"Uncle San is the best to me!" said Shu Lan.

Li calculated the time and said, "Your third uncle and your eldest brother have been learning for about half an hour. Go and ask them to come over and taste the grapes."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

As she said that, Shu Lan skipped over to call Wei Hanzhou.

After a while, Wei Hanzhou and Bosheng came together.

Seeing Wei Hanzhou trying to take the grapes from the big basket, Liu Tangxi immediately reminded him: "Shulan, didn't you pick the grapes specifically for your uncle? Why don't you bring them over to your uncle."

Hearing this, Wei Hanzhou looked up at Liu Tangxi.

Liu Tangxi smiled and said, "Husband, Shulan likes you very much and said she would pick grapes for you personally. Shulan even washed them herself. You can't let Shulan down."

Hearing this, Wei Hanzhou narrowed his eyes slightly.

After hearing this, Shu Lan immediately handed the bowl of grapes she had washed to Wei Hanzhou and said sincerely, "Uncle San, I picked these for you myself. They are delicious. Would you like to try them?"

Liu Tangxi looked at Shu Lan's innocent and lovely appearance, and then at Wei Hanzhou's calm face, and her heart was filled with joy.

Wei Hanzhou seemed to realize that Liu Tangxi was waiting to see a joke, so he raised his eyes and glanced at her.

Liu Tangxi just smiled, looking like he was joking.

Wei Hanzhou shifted his gaze and sat down on the low stool beside Liu Tangxi. He looked straight at his niece standing on the ground and asked seriously, "Shulan, who taught you to read?"

Shu Lan seemed to not understand why Third Uncle asked this question, but she still glanced at Liu Tangxi and answered truthfully: "It's Third Auntie."

"Who taught you to embroider?"

"She's also the third aunt."

Hearing these two questions, Liu Tangxi was slightly startled and suddenly had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, then, Wei Hanzhou said seriously: "Then shouldn't you also thank your aunt and give her the grapes?"

Shu Lan was still young after all, and she couldn't think clearly. She looked at Wei Hanzhou and then at Liu Tangxi.

Li was also very happy to hear her son say this.

Is my son starting to love his wife?

"Your third uncle is right. Bring it over to your third aunt quickly." Li said with a smile.

Zhang also smiled and said, "That's right. Your third aunt taught you how to read and embroider. You should thank her very much."

The smile on Liu Tangxi's face froze and he looked at Wei Hanzhou who was sitting beside him.

Wei Hanzhou clearly still had an expressionless look, but for some reason, she could see a sinister and cunning face underneath his calm face.

After the adults said so, Shulan immediately took the bowl and walked in front of Liu Tangxi.

However, after looking at Liu Tangxi, Shulan looked at Wei Hanzhou again, pursed her lips, and made a decision: "Third Uncle and Third Aunt are both good to Shulan, you two should eat together."

Hearing this, Liu Tangxi suddenly laughed.

"Thank you, Shulan." Liu Tangxi took a grape from the bowl and ate it. While eating, he said, "Mm, so sweet."

"Uncle San, you eat too." Shu Lan looked at Wei Hanzhou.

Looking at Wei Hanzhou's face, Liu Tangxi smiled, reached out and took another one, saying, "Eat it. This is Shulan's kindness."

After saying that, you have to peel off the skin.

Unexpectedly, the grapes in my hand disappeared before I could even start picking them.

After Wei Hanzhou took the grapes from Liu Tangxi's hand, he stuffed them directly into his mouth. After chewing them for a few times, he spit out the grape skins and said, "It's delicious."

Liu Tangxi widened his eyes and looked at Wei Hanzhou who was sitting next to him.

Li and Zhang looked at the young couple with smiles on their faces.

Amid the laughter of Mrs. Li and Mrs. Zhang, Liu Tangxi's face turned red unconsciously.

Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi, looked at her beautiful face, pursed his lips, and explained in a high-sounding manner: "I forgot to wash my hands just now, and I was afraid that the grapes in the bowl would be dirty, so I did this. I hope my lady doesn't mind?"

Liu Tangxi gritted his teeth, forced out a smile, and said, "I don't mind."

Although she smiled on her face, she had already cursed this man several times in her heart.

If you eat without washing your hands, you might end up damaging your stomach!

Then, Shulan said in a baby voice, "Uncle San, if you don't wash your hands, you'll get an upset stomach. Go wash them now."

Liu Tangxi couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Wei Hanzhou glanced at her, stood up, and said, "Well, Third Uncle still has to go to school. If you think grapes are delicious, eat more."

"Yeah." Shu Lan nodded heavily.

After saying that, Wei Hanzhou turned around and went to the study.

Seeing Wei Hanzhou gone, Shulan brought the grapes she had picked to Liu Tangxi and said sincerely, "Auntie, eat them."

Liu Tangxi smiled and touched Shulan's hair, then looked down at the bowl of grapes.

I was very depressed, so in the end, I still didn't manage to trick Wei Hanzhou.

However, after picking up a grape and putting it in his mouth, Liu Tangxi's mood became happy again.

It’s so delicious!

So happy!

The author has something to say: There have been too many updates these past two days, so let me take a break. The next chapter will be published at around 11pm on the 29th, and both chapters will be combined into one.

A pre-collected article, begging for collection!

"Buddhist Lady Solving Cases"

After traveling through time, Xue Yinxu became the unfavored fourth daughter of a concubine in the prefect's family.

I thought it was a difficult mode, but I didn't expect that I had a cheat code that allowed me to travel freely through time and space.

Wrongly accuse her of stealing the eldest sister's pearl earrings?

Xue Yinxu went back to the day when the earring was lost. After seeing the truth, she exposed the second lady in public.

Secretly drug her?

Xue Yinxu identified all the people involved, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

After seeing how powerful she was, everyone in the prefect's residence no longer dared to provoke her.

Xue Yinxu had nothing to do, so he started using his golden finger to travel through time and space to watch plays, listen to music, and visit brothels. He was very happy.

However, one day, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice who was solving a case was brought into time and space.

From then on, listening to music and visiting brothels became a thing of the past, while solving cases and tracking down murderers became the norm.

Han Lin, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice, is the Emperor's nephew and holds a high status.

Everyone said that the illegitimate daughter of the prefect was shameless and followed the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice every day.

Later, the Minister of Justice went to ask for an official position for her in person and took her home as his wife.

Everyone gets slapped in the face.

Mini-theater:

One day, Han Lin said solemnly, "Take me there on March 16, the year of Ji Hai."

Someone touched his nose and said, "Well, the authority for that day has been used up..."

Han Lin glanced at her: "Hmm?"

Someone spoke in a lower voice: "I heard that the courtesan at Xinghualou's singing and dancing that day shocked the whole capital, so I went to watch it secretly."

Han Lin snorted coldly: "Are you going to see the courtesan, or the second prince of the neighboring country?"

Someone pretended to be stupid: "This, that, haha, it doesn't matter who you look at, everyone loves beauty~",,
