Chapter 7 The Essence of Tea



Su Jingxuan wanted to say something, but seeing her determined expression, he didn't know what to say.

"Yes, I'm sorry to have troubled you!"

“I’m not wronged, you believe me, then I won’t feel wronged. However, I don’t want to work in the fields. I want to do something else!” Luo Yunhe said.

She wants to make money; money is everything.

What do you want to do? See if I can help?

"I'll tell you when I've figured it out!" Luo Yunhe said.

"Okay! Tell me what you want to do, and I'll definitely support you!"

Luo Yunhe discovered that he was truly tolerant of her; it seemed that he could do anything she asked.

That night, she lay in bed with her eyes closed, and a virtual screen of the system appeared in front of her. She tapped it twice, and a string of numbers appeared in front of her.

Her eyes lit up when she saw those numbers.

Simply because she earned a thousand points today.

She was incredibly excited.

"System, I'm asking you, do you have a perfect winemaking recipe? One that's even better than my family's aged wine!"

[Ding! Yes, host. This recipe requires points for customization. Choosing one item costs 1000 points, or combining all the wines into one recipe costs 10,000 points! Which one do you need, host?]

"Ten thousand points? How many recipes are needed in total?"

[Reply to host: There are approximately one hundred types. Fruit wine, grain wine, red wine, yellow wine, medicinal wine, rice wine, and each type has many different recipes!]

Luo Yunhe was stunned. In the 21st century, all the liquors brewed were grain liquors, or some flower liquors, such as Zhuyeqing, which are common liquors on the market.

Hearing the system introduce so many varieties of wine to her, she immediately became interested.

"System, I want the complete brewing guide with 10,000 points!"

[Sorry, host, you are still 9,000 points short. Keep up the good work!]

Luo Yunhe: "...Okay, okay, okay!"

Having found her goal, Luo Yunhe happily drifted off to sleep.

When Su Jingxuan came in, she was already asleep.

Looking at her sleeping, Su Jingxuan's eyes were full of tenderness. He carefully covered her with the blanket and then lay down himself.

The next day, Luo Yunhe woke up amidst a chaotic commotion.

Early in the morning, this old woman's loud voice could be heard by people for miles around.

"You traitor, all you do is protect her. Have you lost your mind? You're being controlled by a woman. Are you even a man?"

"You lazy good-for-nothing, and this is the thing you bought for you?" Su Chenshi cursed.

Su Jingxuan ignored her curses and went out to fetch water with the bucket.

"Pah, you ingrate!" Madam Su Chen stared at Su Jingxuan's retreating figure, her eyes filled with venom.

Luo Yunhe saw her vicious gaze as soon as she came out, and immediately frowned.

Just then, Madam Su turned around and saw Luo Yunhe standing at the door, her brows furrowed with displeasure.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and come cook for me! We, the Su family, didn't bring a bride here so you could lie there and eat and drink for free!"

"Tsk tsk, Mother-in-law, you're here to scold my husband first thing in the morning. With your foul language, anyone who doesn't know better would think my husband isn't your biological son!"

Luo Yunhe's words were unintentional. However, upon hearing them, Su Chenshi's expression turned quite unpleasant, and she seemed somewhat nervous.

"What, did I hit the nail on the head? Could it be that you cheated on my father-in-law?"

"You wretched girl, what nonsense are you spouting? He's my son! If you dare to talk nonsense to me again, do you believe I'll tear your mouth apart?" Madam Su didn't want to argue with her about this anymore, so she went straight into the kitchen.

Her actions made Luo Yunhe even more suspicious.

Su Jingxuan fetched two buckets of water and then helped with the cooking.

Luo Yunhe used to be a pampered young lady who never lifted a finger, but now, seeing Su Jingxuan having to do everything, she instinctively wanted to help him.

"Husband, how do I do this? Can you teach me?"

Seeing how eager she was to learn, Su Jingxuan nodded and then taught her how to pick the vegetables.

She studied very hard.

Breakfast consisted of vegetable porridge, with absolutely no meat or even steamed buns.

The Su family all enjoyed their meal immensely.

After dinner, Luo Yunhe took out the clothes she had taken off the day before, along with Su Jingxuan's clothes, and prepared to wash them.

Su Jingxuan saw this and reached out to stop him: "Put it down, I'll wash it!"

“No! I’m your wife now, and it’s only right that I help you with some housework. You still have to go to the academy, so I’ll take care of these clothes!” she said seriously.

"Squeak!" Su Ruyi's door was suddenly opened, and she came to Luo Yunhe carrying a stack of clothes and stuffed them directly into her arms.

"And these too, wash them clean!" Su Ruyi said, then turned and left.

Luo Yunhe: "...Take your clothes away, I'm not going to wash them for you." She reached out and threw all the clothes Su Ruyi had given her on the ground.

"What do you mean?" Su Ruyi didn't expect her to refuse so directly.

"It's meaningless. You have hands and feet, can't you wash your own clothes? Why should I wash your clothes for you?" Luo Yunhe said disdainfully.

"Husband, where should we go to wash clothes? Can you take me there?"

Su Jingxuan was about to refuse on her behalf. But seeing her defiant attitude, he smiled and led her straight out the door.

"Mother, Father, look at this! What kind of person is this? She won't even wash our clothes! What kind of daughter-in-law acts like this?"

"Pah! Lazy thing!" Madam Su spat at the front door.

There is a small river to the east of the village entrance, and the riverbed is full of large stones and sand.

The river water was very clear.

People in the village like to do their laundry here.

"Honey, can you really manage without me here?"

"Husband, don't worry! I won't let them bully me. If they really do, I'll come back and tell you!" Luo Yunhe said playfully.

Su Jingxuan liked her straightforward personality very much: "Okay, don't be afraid of offending them, I'll take care of everything!"

"Yes, my husband, hurry to the academy, don't be late!"

Su Jingxuan looked at her intently, gently patted her head, and then turned away.

Before he could even take a step, a delicate voice rang out: "Brother Xuan!"

Luo Yunhe suddenly shivered, turned her head, and saw that the source of the voice was just a little girl.

Her skin wasn't very fair, she was wearing a floral dress, and she was also carrying a basin containing clothes and sticks.

Those eyes were staring unabashedly at Su Jingxuan, clearly showing that she had long admired him.

Luo Yunhe was immediately displeased. Before Su Jingxuan could speak, she stepped forward and blocked his way. They met the girl's eyes.

"What are you calling my husband for?"

Upon hearing Luo Yunhe's voice, the girl finally turned her gaze to her.
