In short, this is another little brother who looks down on the male protagonist at the beginning, mocks and provokes him, but is finally defeated and conquered by the male protagonist's strength.
The process of Long Aotian's rise was to suppress first and then to promote.
Jiang Shi seemed not to notice the subtle provocation in Chen Si's eyes. His gentle smile was impeccable. "Brother Chen Si is already so big. He will be taller than me soon."
"Who is your brother?" Chen Si said in a muffled voice.
Liu immediately slapped his arm hard: "How can you speak like that? If your voice is not pleasant, then stop talking and don't disturb the ears of the prince and Miss Yu."
Women who are used to doing farm work are just as strong as men. This made Chen Si hold his arm in pain and look at Liu with dissatisfaction and resentment.
He wanted to speak, but when he thought of his hoarse voice, he closed his mouth in frustration and turned away.
Ah, this damn voice change period!
Liu quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, my lord. This child has been disobedient since childhood, and now that his voice is changing, his words are bound to be unpleasant. I hope your lordship won't blame me."
Jiang Shi shook his head and said gently, "It's okay. He's still young and at the rebellious age. Mother Liu shouldn't punish him. Just discipline and teach him more."
Jiang Shi didn't take Chen Si's attitude to heart.
Or rather, he has gotten used to it.
Young people around his age seemed to dislike him in this way.
He doesn't need others to like him.
Jiang Shi looked at Yu Tanqi.
The girl was looking at a large piece of land where flower seeds had not yet been planted. Her delicate eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and her expression was a little distressed, but her eyes were clear, as if holding the fragments of light falling from the sky.
His heart softened, the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise, and his eyebrows were gentle.
As long as his fiancée likes him, that's all that matters.
What others do has nothing to do with him.
…
Yu Tanqi and Jiang Shi spent a day planting flower seeds and seedlings around the wooden house.
The construction of the wooden house has not yet taken shape and the foundation has not yet been fully dug.
After all, building a wooden house is not an easy task.
The wooden house designed by Jiang Shi does not have only one room, but is a small pastoral courtyard. However, the house is made of high-quality wood.
The worker in charge of building the wooden house said: "It takes at least three months to build a courtyard like this."
Yu Tanqi smiled and said, "Three months isn't very long. The wooden house will only be built in June or July, which is a good time to escape the summer heat."
Jiang Shi said, "Then after the wooden house is built, we will come here to escape the summer heat."
"Okay, okay."
The construction of the wooden house is a big project, and the servants in the manor will come to help when they are free.
Chen Si was also pinched by Liu's ear and came to help dig the foundation.
He held the shovel and was very dissatisfied: "Why should I dig the soil too?"
Liu was also digging the soil with a shovel on the side: "Because everyone is helping the prince, how can you be idle?"
Chen Si looked at Yu Tanqi and Jiang Shi who were not far away. They were talking to the manager of the tea garden and seemed to be going to the tea garden to see how the tea was being grown.
He sneered disdainfully: "A young man from a marquisate, following a girl around all day, is really not doing his job properly."
Without even removing her dusty gloves, Liu slapped him on the head. "That's the Crown Prince. Is that someone you can casually criticize? The Crown Prince is here to play for a few days because he's on holiday at the Imperial College."
Chen Si grimaced in pain. "Mom, can you please stop hitting me? I'm already grown up, don't I have any dignity? Besides, it's not like I don't know how many days the Imperial College is closed. He's been here for three days. It's obvious that he didn't want to go to the Imperial College, so he asked for leave to come here to play! I didn't want to go to the private school, so I had to find a way to ask for leave..."
Oops, I think I accidentally said something terrible.
Unfortunately, it was too late for him to shut up now.
Liu put down the shovel and hit him with both hands. "Alright, little brat, you're itching for trouble, aren't you? You only know that the prince asked for leave to come to the manor to play, but did you see the box of books he brought into his room?"
She grew increasingly angry as she spoke. "The blueprint for this wooden house and courtyard was drawn by the prince himself. I've seen his handwriting, and it's even more elegant and beautiful than printed words. And look at your handwriting, even a dog can write better than you!"
Chen Si was beaten and fled everywhere, his hoarse duck voice still carrying the youth's unwillingness and reluctance.
"So what if his handwriting is beautiful? It doesn't mean he's knowledgeable. And he must be pretending to bring all those books with him. Otherwise, why would he hang out with his fiancée all day? Has anyone ever seen him read?"
"Stop right there! If you continue to criticize the prince, I'll get your father to come and beat you up!"
Unlike Liu who would simply slap him, Chen Mo beat Chen Si not as a child but as a soldier who had made an error. He was ruthless but allowed Chen Si to fight back.
How could a young boy who hadn't even reached adulthood and hadn't even passed his voice change period possibly defeat a man who had once taken off the head of an enemy general single-handedly on the battlefield?
Every time Chen Si was beaten by Chen Mo, his hands and feet would be broken, and it would take at least ten days or half a month to heal. He would be much quieter and more well-behaved while recuperating.
Therefore, compared to his mother Liu who would beat him in public at any time, Chen Si was more afraid of his biological father Chen Mo, who was usually smiling and would not attack easily.
Chen Si's body trembled subconsciously as he fled, but then an even stronger sense of dissatisfaction surged in his heart.
"I'm not criticizing you. I'm telling the truth. Mother, you can't be so partial to him just because he's the prince! I'm your own son!"
The two of them made so much noise that they attracted the attention of Yu Tanqi who was walking towards the tea garden.
She looked at Chen Si who was being chased by Liu Shi, covered her lips and couldn't help laughing: "What an interesting scene."
