A Chong spat out the water he had just drunk with a "puff" sound, and hurriedly wiped the corner of his lips with his sleeve, and hurriedly took a towel to wipe the water stains on the table.
Shen Ruoxi looked at this scene and couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.
It seemed that she was worrying too much. Chaos would not act like a young boy and show such a naive expression because of such a thing.
If the other party wasn't the reincarnation of Chaos, Shen Ruoxi would have wanted to take a sip of this sour and sweet...feeling!
"Tell me, what are you arguing about? I'm an experienced person, maybe I can give you some advice." Shen Ruoxi coughed lightly and picked up another melon seed.
The boy sipped his lips and spoke after a while: "We didn't quarrel."
"We didn't quarrel, why were you so excited just now?" Shen Ruoxi raised an eyebrow and exposed it.
"I... I just wanted her to not be so tired and rest for a few more hours. I lied to her and said I was sick, but she found out..."
When hearing the first half of the sentence, Shen Ruoxi still agreed with what the boy said, but after hearing the second half, Shen Ruoxi couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The young man was a little embarrassed and annoyed, his fingers tightly clenched the corner of his clothes, his cheeks puffed up and he turned his head away: "Awan is not at home today, Princess, please go back."
Good boy, you are so angry that you are ordering me to leave!
Shen Ruoxi recalled the saddest things in her two lives, finally lowered the corners of her lips, and coughed lightly: "Sorry, my sense of humour is quite low, and I definitely don't mean to laugh at you."
Ah Chong's face turned even redder and he stood up to leave.
It seems like he is going to leave if you don't.
Shen Ruoxi found it even more funny.
"Don't you want to know why Awan is angry?" Shen Ruoxi grabbed another handful of melon seeds and spoke softly.
As she expected, the young man really stopped and looked at Shen Ruoxi with a confused look on his face: "Why?"
Shen Ruoxi looked at her teacup: “Oh, there’s no tea.”
The young man's throat rolled up and down: "I, I'll make it for you." Then he walked back and sat down opposite Shen Ruoxi and started making tea again.
A pair of eyes thirsty for knowledge glanced at Shen Ruoxi from time to time.
After drinking the sweet and delicious tea, Shen Ruoxi had whetted the boy's appetite and stopped keeping him in suspense.
"The reason why Awan is angry is actually very simple, because you deceived her, and you deceived her with something she cared about."
The boy still looked confused: "If I lied for her own good, is that wrong?"
Shen Ruoxi tapped the cup wall with her fingertips: "This may seem like a white lie to you, but for Awan, it's the beginning of the collapse of trust."
The boy's grip on the cup wall gradually tightened.
"Do you know how terrible it is when trust collapses? If one day, she even has to distinguish whether a sentence you say is true or false, can you still be friends?"
The boy was visibly panicking: "Then, what should I do?"
Shen Ruoxi smiled and drank the tea in the cup: "It's very simple, tell her your true thoughts, and prove to her with your actions that you will never lie to her again."
A Chong thought for a long time, and his eyes gradually became firm.
Finally, he nodded vigorously: "I understand, thank you for your advice, Princess."
Shen Ruoxi lazily stood up and walked out yawning: "Life is short, don't waste it, don't wait until it's too late to regret it, then it will be too late."
Walking out of Awan's courtyard, Shen Ruoxi looked up at the gray sky. A gust of wind blew by, bringing a biting chill.
"It's the twelfth lunar month, and it's going to snow soon!"
Shen Ruoxi's words came true. Since the second day of the twelfth lunar month, heavy snow began to fall over Baiyu Village, and the villagers of the Baiyu tribe also became busy.
On the fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, just as the sky was getting light, Shen Ruoxi was awakened by the noisy sounds outside the house.
When I took a look outside the courtyard, I saw that the Baiyu people were wearing bright and gorgeous clothes again, holding pots and pans, and walking towards the mountains.
Shen Ruoxi had goose bumps on her back. Was another grand banquet going to be held?
After she finished washing up and came out of the house, she happened to see the commander passing by, so she went up to him and asked about her guess.
The commander squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Ruoxi: "Are you moved?"
"What? What's the matter?" Shen Ruoxi didn't understand.
"Your husband hasn't been around for so long, is he lonely? Men, when they're around, they pamper you for the sake of family harmony. When they're not around, shouldn't they try to find something new to play with?"
"How about calling a few people to wait for me in your room later?"
Shen Ruoxi almost choked and waved her hands quickly: "No need, no need, I'm just curious about what they are doing."
The commander stroked his chin and said, "I'm becoming more and more curious about your husband. Is he so stunningly handsome that you're so devoted to him?"
The corners of Shen Ruoxi's lips twitched. Azhou was indeed good-looking, but more importantly, it was difficult for her to adapt to the lifestyle of the Baiyu people.
"They are preparing for the New Year." The commander stopped joking with Shen Ruoxi and pointed at the people at the foot of the mountain to explain.
"In two days, all the Baiyu people will go up the mountain to offer sacrifices, praying to Master Chenghuang for good weather and good harvests in the coming year. Most importantly, they will pray for Awan to pass Master Chenghuang's test."
Shen Ruoxi was slightly startled: "Two days later?"
Isn't that Ah Chong's birthday, the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month? What a coincidence!
The commander nodded and said, "Indeed, in two days it will be the Baiyu tribe's New Year's Day, and it will also be the day when Awan will challenge Master Chenghuang. If we fail again this year, we will have to wait until next year."
