After Wen Zhiyu paid tribute to his mother, he stared at the stone tablet in a daze.
He stretched out his fingers and stroked the words on the stone tablet.
There was some confusion in his eyes.
"Mother, I met someone, a very interesting person."
He lowered his head. There was a red rope tied around his neck. It was clumsily woven by Gu Yunchu when he visited her last time.
Because it was the first time I did this, the whole red rope was crooked and didn't look good at all.
Wen Zhiyu felt that he seemed to have changed. Seeing her smile, he also wanted to laugh. Seeing her pretending to be affectionate in order to take revenge on Pei Lu, he felt that his heart was grabbed by something and felt sour.
She was so delicate and cried out in pain when she bumped into something. He clearly hated women like that the most in the past. Such women reminded him of the princesses of Pei who rode him like a horse when he was a child.
He seemed to be trapped in a fog and couldn't see himself clearly.
Wen Zhiyu just thought about this, thinking about Gu Yunchu's every smile and frown in his mind, thinking about her pulling his arm and acting coquettishly.
Suddenly, he froze again, his eyes filled with confusion and helplessness.
But Gu Yunchu is the daughter of the Gu family...
There is a deep blood feud between them, and if she knew that he was also involved in what happened back then, she would definitely hate him.
When he thought of those charming eyes filled with hatred, he felt suffocated.
What should he do?
He doesn't know either.
Wen Zhiyu didn't know how long he had been thinking in front of his mother's tombstone, so long that the sky became dark and light rain began to fall.
He came back to his senses and got on the carriage with the window half open. When passing by the street, he saw a stall hurriedly packing up its things.
Wen Zhiyu looked over and saw peonies.
The vendor greeted him with a smile, "Sir, you want to buy some peonies? They can be used for medicinal purposes or for viewing! You won't find any peonies on this street that are of better quality than the ones I have!"
He was praising his own goods and was very confident.
Wen Zhiyu looked over and felt that none of these peonies were as beautiful as the one she once raised.
That kind of thing could be killed, and this kind of thing probably won’t survive for a few days.
"Your flower...is not good enough..."
He reached out and touched the petals, imitating Gu Yunchu's previous actions and began to pull them apart. Seeing this, the stall owner quickly stopped him: "If you don't like the flowers, just don't buy them. How can you ruin them like this? If you ravage them like this, all the petals will fall off!"
Wen Zhiyu finally laughed. No wonder, when the peony she raised died, she looked reluctant, thinking that the flower was too delicate!
"I mean, I have a friend who also raised a peony. It bloomed beautifully a few days ago, much more beautiful than yours."
Stall owner: “…”
This guy, if he doesn't want to buy it, then don't buy it. Why are you still arguing with him?!
"You're joking! The peony season is April and May. It's only early April now, so the peonies should have just started blooming!"
The stall owner's tone was still polite, but his eyes were alert, and he suspected that Wen Zhiyu was here to cause trouble.
Seeing Wen Zhiyu lowering his head and not speaking, he waved his hand helplessly: "It's raining. If you don't want to buy it, don't waste my time!"
After saying that, he started to clean up again, and only left after he put the last pot on his cart.
Only many leaves were left on the ground.
That person just said that the peonies should have just bloomed...
What is that pot in Jinhua Palace?
A peony flower that has become a spirit?!
Jinhua Palace.
Gu Yunchu was wearing a plain white dress, her fingers secretly tapping the eaves of the door, looking for something in the darkness through the misty rain outside.
Why hasn’t Wen Zhiyu come yet?
Could it be that he was just trying to fool her last time and forgot about what happened today?
If he really forgot, she would at least give him two punches!
She pouted and found a small stool to sit on the corridor.
When the wind blew, she would step back to prevent the rain from soaking her white clothes.
When Wen Zhiyu arrived, he saw this scene. She looked angry and seemed to be sulking.
She was sitting there in a white dress. Wen Zhiyu covered his chest with his hands and felt that the person in front of him was somewhat familiar... It seemed that he had forgotten something very important in his mind.
She was used to wearing red clothes before, so she didn't feel this way.
"Jiaojiao."
He called out softly, and Gu Yunchu raised his head. He was no longer as cautious as before when hiding from the rain, and ran directly towards Wen Zhiyu.
"Ayu! Catch me!"
She jumped into Wen Zhiyu's arms, and the umbrella in Wen Zhiyu's hand was thrown behind his mind and fell to the ground pitifully.
She rubbed her furry little head against his chest and said aggrievedly, "Why are you here so late? I thought you forgot!"
"Something happened on the way and delayed you. The peach blossom you wanted."
The peach blossoms were covered with rain and looked a little wilted.
Gu Yunchu looked at the peach blossoms. The wilted peach blossoms should also bring luck in love, right?
[Wen Zhiyu's blackening value decreased by 20, currently 60.]
Gu Yunchu tilted his head in confusion. Why did his darkening value suddenly drop?
She took the peach blossoms, picked the flowers, turned over the flowerpot in front of the window that originally contained peonies, and buried all the peach blossoms in it.
Wen Zhiyu narrowed her eyes and looked at the flowerpot unkindly. Could it be that she really had a peony spirit in it?!
[Wen Zhiyu's blackening value increases by 20, currently 80.]
Gu Yunchu: ???
No, you're playing with her on a springboard? Up and down...
She turned her head to look at Wen Zhiyu and just stared at him straight in the face.
Seeing that there was no expression on Wen Zhiyu's face, he withdrew his gaze.
[007, did you get stuck in a bug just now?]
007 was so anxious that he was sweating. It…it…it didn’t know how to do it!!
Gu Yunchu pulled Wen Zhiyu to the eaves, where they were sheltered from the rain, and took out a pile of yellow paper.
Wen Zhiyu watched as Gu Yunchu took out a fire starter, lit the yellow papers, and began to churn them.
"Jiaojiao, what's this?"
"On Qingming Festival, burn paper money!"
Wen Zhiyu held his chin and asked, "Did someone die in the Gu family?"
Yes, Gu Yunchu's mother must have died very early...
But doing this in the palace is a taboo!
"It's unlucky to do this in the palace!"
Gu Yunchu snorted coldly. Who told Pei Zhazha not to allow her to leave the palace?
She couldn't go to the tomb to burn it, and she was not allowed to burn it in the palace?!
"Even ghosts are afraid of evil people. I'm so vicious, why would I be afraid of ghosts coming after me?"
Wen Zhiyu was stunned. What was she talking about?
As she spoke, silence seemed to fall again, with the sound of raindrops dripping all around. It was a while before her voice was heard again.
"Hey, Wen Zhiyu, if I die one day, you must remember to live longer and burn more paper money for me. I can't endure hardship, and I will spend money lavishly even in the underworld!"
