Chapter 147: Gilding the Bad



It was already dusk when the three of them returned to Tinglanting. When they entered the courtyard, they found that there was no familiar figure.

Wen Hangxing asked the servant who was bringing him clothes, "Where is Ms. Lin?"

The servant lowered his head and said, "Madam is still practicing in the dance studio."

Wen Hangxing felt a strange feeling in his heart, and this feeling reached its peak when Lin Yitang came back covered in sweat.

He asked in surprise, "Ms. Lin, did you just pull this out of the water?"

Lin Yitang was tired and hot at the moment, and scolded him with a smile, "Get lost!"

As she walked up, Wen Hangxing followed her like a curious baby, asking, "Why are you so diligent today? Didn't you say that practice isn't about quantity, but quality? So you only practice about three hours a day."

123 also joined in the fun: "That's right, host, there's something extremely wrong with you."

Lin Yitang slapped the black head that came close to her in annoyance, pointed at the little golden retriever that had been circling around her feet since she came upstairs and said, "If you have nothing to do, take Potato to take a bath."

Wen Hangxing reluctantly picked up the potato, but he still smelled something wrong. "You didn't quarrel with my dad and wanted to die of exhaustion in this way, and then make the old man feel guilty, right?"

Lin Yitang was almost annoyed by him and nodded in agreement: "Ah, yes, yes, yes."

Wen Hangxing said dissatisfiedly: "Ms. Lin, you are so perfunctory."

Lin Yitang was busy taking a shower and didn't bother to talk to him anymore. She stretched out a slender finger and placed it on his forehead. She drew a few random strokes and said as if she was lying to a child, "Okay, I've cast a spell on you. Now you can't do anything except stand here or go back downstairs."

Wen Hangxing smiled, "You really didn't even bother to give me any extra credit."

Lin Yitang: "It's good that you know I'm impatient."

Wen Hangxing didn't know why he was in a good mood. All his good mood today came to an abrupt end when he saw the dog-skin plaster, so when he saw Ms. Lin, he subconsciously wanted to have more contact with her. Now the effect is really good.

Wen Hangxing, in a good mood, picked up the little golden retriever spinning around on the ground, weighed it, and pinched its furry little paws. "Tsk, Potato, how come you've become so fat in just a few days?"

Potato cried out twice in dissatisfaction.

Wen Hangxing smiled and said, "Look at you, you're not happy even when I say that. Your personality is as delicate as Ms. Lin's."

After saying that, without waiting for Potato to resist, he carried the little golden retriever back downstairs. When he saw Jiang Sui and Yan Junqi, he picked up his dog paw and shook it to greet them.

Yan Junqi: "Childish."

Jiang Sui: "It's too much to bear."

Wen Hangxing ignored them and was about to head to the garden with the potatoes in his arms. Suddenly, two little guys followed him. He glanced sideways and asked, "What are you doing?"

Yan Junqi said confidently: "I want to pet the puppy too."

Jiang Sui coughed lightly and asked, "Where are you going?"

Wen Hangxing sneered: "You are not childish now, you can see it?"

The two of them froze, and Jiang Sui's ears slowly turned red. Even someone as thick-skinned as Yan Junqi felt a little embarrassed.

"Let's go give the potatoes a bath."

The servant was about to say that Potato had just taken a bath yesterday and smelled delicious, but was stopped by the housekeeper.

The housekeeper narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Wait for the young masters to go. It's nice to have something to kill time with."

It’s called taking a bath, but in fact it’s just playing in the water.

The three men and the dog ran to the corner of the garden, picked up a long sprinkler and started watering the potatoes.

It was still summer and incredibly hot, so there was no hidden danger in this behavior.

The gardener stood there and watched the three men spraying water everywhere with the hose, some of which even splashed onto the flowers he had carefully cared for, and stood in front of the housekeeper with a resentful look on his face.

The butler looked at his old friend's resentful face, coughed softly and comforted him: "Well...this matter, actually, well, it can be negotiated, I think, right..."

The gardener's kind voice was tinged with ruthlessness. "Mr. Liu, if you keep practicing Tai Chi here, don't blame me for going to your house tonight and burying your collection somewhere."

The housekeeper's heart was bleeding, knowing that his old colleague of many years was serious. After all, he was once a mercenary of the Wen family. He was always cruel and ruthless, and would do anything to achieve his goals. Anyway, he couldn't afford to offend him.

After a moment's deliberation, he spoke, "This... Of course, I despise the actions of the young masters, don't I? I'm definitely on your side. But, after all, we serve the young masters, so how can we control what the masters do?"

The gardener sneered, "I don't know if others can manage this, but it's up to you, Mr. Liu, whether you want to or not. I'm warning you, if one of my flowers dies, your treasures will be ruined."

"No, Lao Gao. The young masters have finally had a chance to relax, and you can't be flexible? Besides, you just pulled out all the flowers you had painstakingly planted and replaced them with the flowers the lady likes."

Seeing the gardener's hesitation, the butler pressed the issue, "Mainly, it's because Madam wants the three young masters to play with Potato for a while longer. You know Potato is young and often likes to stay in the garden, often spending the entire afternoon there. What does it know? Don't bother with it."

"How should I know?"

The gardener shouted back, then suddenly realized what was happening and asked in disbelief, "Liu Fox, are you kidding me?!"

The housekeeper smiled mysteriously and said, "Hey, I just like puppies. What's so shameful about that?"

Still feeling it wasn't enough, he continued sympathetically, "The free time after working in the garden is quite boring. It's inevitable that you'd want someone, no, a dog, to keep you company. I understand."

The gardener's bronze face flushed red, and he shouted to hide his embarrassment at being exposed, "Mr. Liu, stop slandering me! I knew people like you had bad intentions. I'm going back!"

After saying that, he walked back quickly, leaving the butler with an "arrogant" back.

The butler narrowed his fox eyes and watched his back with interest. When he was about to leave his sight, he suddenly raised his voice and said, "Lao Gao, are the bear cookies delicious? Hahahahaha."

The person in front staggered and almost fell to the ground. After barely stabilizing himself, he ran away without looking back.

After Lin Yitang finished cleaning up, he felt refreshed and thought to himself that he should be more diligent. Laziness leads to depravity, and depravity makes people uncomfortable.

123 now knows the personality of his host. Generally speaking, he is a useless person who constantly plays badly but is only serious intermittently.

Hearing the title it gave him, Lin Yitang showed no remorse, "What do you know? This is called great wisdom."

123: "..." I have seen people go abroad to gild their reputation, but I have never seen anyone who wants to gild his reputation even more.

Lin Yitang couldn't stand its condescending attitude and asked, "Just tell me, do you enjoy eating melon seeds and watching TV during work hours?"

123 was silent for a while, then whispered, "Great."

You know what, you’d better not say it, it’s really cool.
