Such a blissful life infuriated Han Zhongyu so much that he considered resigning from his official post.
Knowing that Xie Yushu spends every day with Xuan Yuanche, Han Zhongyu was extremely jealous and secretly competed with Xuan Yuanche countless times. He even packed a small bag and moved into the villa.
Every day after finishing his official duties, he would rush to the mountain villa at eight o'clock sharp, ostensibly to instruct Xuanyuan Che.
When Xuanyuan Che saw that he had followed him, he was so angry that his nose was crooked.
Whether it was out of a desire to oppose Han Zhongyu or some unspoken, budding feeling within herself, she became increasingly attached to Xie Yushu.
Xuanyuan Che knew Han Zhongyu's thoughts. At first, he was a bit arrogant and would occasionally call Xie Yushu by her first name and boss her around when he was in a bad mood.
Now he's become a little puppy, so obedient, calling her "sister" all the time, so well-behaved.
Finally, after Han Zhongyu left his post, he rushed over again and released the crickets that Xie Yushu and Xuan Yuanche were fighting. Xuan Yuanche then became completely hostile towards him.
Han Zhongyu said he had something to say to Xie Yushu, and Xuan Yuanche clung to Xie Yushu, looking on expectantly.
"Sister, tomorrow is my birthday. Will you celebrate it with me?"
Xie Yushu nodded upon hearing this.
"It's your birthday? Celebrate, of course! I'll have the kitchen prepare a table of your favorite dishes to celebrate your birthday tomorrow."
Han Zhongyu was sour; he hadn't even celebrated his birthday here yet, what was Han Zhongyu doing here! So he spoke with a sour expression.
"A person as frail as him is not suited to celebrate his birthday."
I heard Master Shanxin say in a sermon that for someone like him with poor health, it would be best to observe a vegetarian diet and chant Buddhist scriptures on his birthday, and then go to a temple for a 49-day fast. This would be more beneficial to his physical and mental health.
After saying that, he turned to Xuanyuan Che and said
"There's a Huayan Temple nearby, go there tomorrow to fast!"
Upon hearing Han Zhongyu's name, Xuanyuan Che immediately wanted to seal him away in a temple, angrily revealing Han Zhongyu's shortcomings.
"Pah! That monk even said you're a blockhead and your love life is going to be full of troubles. You might as well stay a bachelor for life!"
After Xuan Yuanche finished speaking, fearing that Xie Yushu wouldn't believe him, he added...
"Sister, you don't know yet, do you? Han Zhongyu is a ruthless person who turns on you!"
His mother had arranged a marriage for him, and just two days ago he was watching lantern festivals with his fiancée. Two days later, he threw his future brother-in-law into jail. He's heartless!
Whether Han Zhongyu was ruthless or not is unknown, but his face turned black with anger.
“Yu Shu, let me explain. It’s not what he said.”
That's because her brother lent money at exorbitant interest rates and even killed someone; I was just arresting him according to the law.
Xie Yushu nodded; she still believed it.
However, seeing Han Zhongyu's anxious expression, she seemed to understand something. It seemed that she didn't need to take action; he would come to her on his own!
She should be more reserved then.
With this realization, Xie Yushu withdrew immediately. These two would fight for at least an hour without a winner, so she needed to go back and cultivate her mind and character.
I wonder if those two managed to decide a winner yesterday.
The next day, Xuanyuan Che's birthday banquet was held as usual.
Xuanyuan Che looked at the table full of food, all of which were his favorite dishes, and was genuinely happy, but he was still a little disappointed that there were no gifts.
He was used to getting whatever he wanted, and he couldn't tolerate feelings of disappointment, so he spoke directly.
"Sister, where's my birthday present?"
"You want another gift?"
"You're already rolling in money, what else in my estate could you possibly want?"
Xuanyuan Che Lai Jiji
“What’s mine is mine, and what my sister gave me is what my sister gave me. They’re not the same.”
I won't be picky about anything you give me.
Even a prince of the current dynasty is so humble; this gift should be of a higher caliber.
Xie Yushu looked around, and just then, a maid brought over a plate of carved radishes. This was a common dish in the past. The radishes had already been carved into flower petals, but to prevent them from getting dusty, the excess skin hadn't been removed.
Normally, the maid would bring it up and remove the excess radish peel, but today, Xie Yushu simply told the maid to leave.
I took a chopstick and stuck it under the flower to make a stem. Then I rubbed the chopstick together quickly with my palms. The chopstick and the radish petals spun rapidly, and the excess radish skin was shaken off, instantly revealing a crystal clear, watery peony.
Xie Yushu handed the chopsticks to Xuan Yuanche.
Hey, happy birthday!
Xuanyuan Che said
"You're just trying to fool me like this!"
His face showed obvious joy as he looked at the radish flower from left to right. This kind of carved flower often appeared on the dinner table, and he never bothered to look at it. But this one seemed especially beautiful to him.
However, before he could even enjoy his happiness for three seconds, his hand was grabbed and the radish flower was eaten in one bite.
"Hey! What brings you back at this hour?"
Xie Yushu looked at Han Zhongyu, who had suddenly appeared, and asked.
I came back specifically to congratulate a student on their birthday.
Han Zhongyu was eating a radish, and his speech was somewhat unclear.
Xuanyuan Che looked at the bare chopsticks in his hand and bristled.
"You blockhead! Give me back my radish flowers!"
Seeing that Han Zhongyu was chewing and swallowing the flower, Xuan Yuanche was so angry that he reached into Han Zhongyu's mouth to pry the flower out!
Han Zhongyu bit his finger hard.
Xuan Yuanche cried out in pain, holding his fingers up to show Xie Yushu.
"Sister, see? I told you he's heartless, didn't I? He's not human, he's like a mad dog when he gets angry, look how he bit me!"
Han Zhongyu, seeing that this guy was slandering him again, covered his mouth and tried to throw him out, but Xuan Yuanche twisted and broke free, instead running forward and hugging Xie Yushu.
"Sister, I like you. Please don't like that blockhead, okay?"
Xie Yushu didn't expect Xuan Yuanche to do this, and she pulled him off her body.
"I don't like you, so you better behave yourself."
After Xie Yushu finished speaking, Han Zhongyu's heart, which had been in his throat, finally settled back into his stomach.
Xuanyuan Che then looked like Xi Shi holding her heart.
"Sister, I'm so sad, my heart aches~"
"roll!"
"Sister, if you don't like me, who do you like?"
Is it this unromantic, lifeless piece of wood?
Han Zhongyu looked on with a mixture of trepidation and anticipation.
Xie Yushu glanced at him and said coldly.
"Xuanyuan Che, do you still want to eat at your birthday banquet?!"
Seeing that Xie Yushu wouldn't answer directly, Xuan Yuanche pressed on, unwilling to give up.
"So who do you like?"
"Mind your own business, just eat your food!"
"Could it be that you like that idiot who married Chu Mingzhu?"
Sister, his brain is scrambled with shit! You don't still have feelings for him, do you?
Let me tell you, you absolutely cannot marry him again! He's a scumbag, he's so dishonest, and that Chu Mingzhu is a real nuisance too. You'll never have a good life if you marry him!
A girl should marry someone like me!
I am rich, handsome, and dashing. Most importantly, I only love you. If you marry me, everything I have will be yours, and I will listen to you. Isn't that wonderful?
Look, you're already sixteen. Girls get married at sixteen, so you should start thinking about it too.
Sister, choose me!
