The Year of Lihua: She Was Reborn

Hua Ye slept well the night before, and woke up slowly at noon. Autumn was in full swing, the weather was cool and pleasant, and the sunlight shone through the window onto the windowsill, making people feel lazy.

Hua Ye stretched, but felt weak all over, as if all his bones were falling apart.

Whenever she moved slightly, she could hear the bones in her body creaking, like an old machine that had been out of repair for a long time.

This soreness made her frown, but she felt happy in her heart. After all, only after a deep sleep would the body have such a reaction.

She seemed to have forgotten everything that happened last night, and only remembered that she drank a lot.

I fell asleep in a daze, like a well-behaved kitten, quiet and beautiful.

Xu Zhi, who had been served all night, was in high spirits and felt particularly relaxed.

He woke up early, refreshed and with a satisfied smile on his face.

He first ordered his men to prepare sobering soup and a hearty breakfast, and then ordered the butler to wake up General Hua.

Hua Ye felt a splitting headache and barely supported himself to sit up. After washing up casually, he hurried to the hall.

As soon as she stepped into the hall, she called out in a delicate voice: "Mom, Ye'er has a severe headache. I want to drink some hangover soup."

At this time, General Hua was drinking sobering soup and chatting with Xu Zhi from time to time.

Mrs. Hua was talking excitedly and dancing, as if she was discussing something that would make them happy.

Hua Ye looked at the three of them, who completely ignored him, and felt a little dissatisfied.

So she strode over, snatched the hangover soup from her father's hand, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Girl, do you still look like a lady from a noble family?"

Seeing this, Mrs. Hua hurriedly reached out to grab it, but she was still a step too late and could only grab an empty bowl. She glared at Hua Ye angrily, with an expression of disappointment on her face.

"Your daughter has never been a lady from a wealthy family. You didn't find out on the first day."

Hua Ye was not willing to be outdone and glared back fiercely. She really couldn't stand her mother pretending to be dignified in front of her son-in-law.

"You're getting married soon, and will soon become a wife. You should at least be more restrained..."

Mrs. Hua was very angry and instinctively reached out to hit her a few times, but Xu Zhi took the lead and pulled her into his arms, blocking her outstretched hand.

"There are plenty of hangover soups. Why would Ye'er want to steal your father-in-law's drink? Xiao Wang has some."

Xuzhi affectionately rubbed her hair scattered on her shoulders, and naturally took the unique cup of sobering soup on the table, opened it, and found steaming hot soup inside, exuding a rich aroma.

He deliberately wore a low-necked smoky blue brocade robe today. The endless mountains were faintly visible along the folds of his clothes, like a blurred ink painting.

The strand of hair that usually rests on the chest is specially combed behind the shoulder, making her look particularly energetic and bookish.

However, Mrs. Hua's attention was drawn to the bruises on his neck.

The bruise was particularly obvious, as if it had just suffered a heavy blow. There were even some tiny scratches, which made people feel suspicious.

Madam Hua asked curiously, "Xuzhi, what's wrong with your neck?"

Xu Zhi pursed his lips, a hint of embarrassment and shyness showing on his face, and replied sheepishly: "It was my little wild cat. I don't know why it suddenly got angry and scratched me a few times."

After saying that, he smiled embarrassedly.

Hua Ye was so busy gulping down soup and eating meat buns that he completely blocked out their conversation.

After hearing this, Mrs. Hua immediately understood and blushed slightly. She felt a little embarrassed to ask further questions. After all, this matter involved the private life between the two of them, so it was not appropriate to ask too much.

At this time, Mrs. Hua noticed that her daughter, who was protected behind him, would glare at her from time to time, and ate so heartily and unrestrainedly that the corners of her mouth were covered with oil.

She was so angry that she raised her hand again, but when she saw Xuzhi protecting her, she put her hand back reluctantly.

Madam Hua jumped over Xu Zhi and sat next to Hua Ye. She couldn't help but scold her own woman: "You were so rough, girl. Look at what you did to Xu Zhi's neck."

"I want to tickle him, but where can I tickle him?"

Hua Ye was puzzled, and he didn't stop chewing the food in his mouth at all...
