The Year of Lihua: She Was Reborn

"I didn't expect that the master's hair-dressing skills are so exquisite."

She looked at herself in the mirror carelessly, her heart full of admiration for her current appearance.

However, the curve of her mouth that was getting deeper and deeper could not be hidden, as if it was filled with joy, completely betraying her extremely happy mood at the moment.

"If you like it, that's perfect! This headband goes perfectly with your bright red riding suit. The two complement each other perfectly."

Xuzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, and the wooden comb disappeared from his hand like a phantom when he gently grasped it.

His face still had that calm expression, as if the person who had just skillfully combed her hair was not him.

"Okay, let's go! My parents must be waiting anxiously for me!"

She said anxiously, and before Xuzhi could respond, she stood up impatiently and wrapped her hands around his waist tightly like vines.

Then he tugged at his belt vigorously, his eyes urging him to cast the spell quickly.

He looked at her anxious look, a glimmer of doting flashed in his eyes, and then he slowly waved his sleeves, placed one hand firmly on her waist, and held her tightly in his arms.

The next moment, a dark and deep black hole suddenly appeared in front of them, as if it could swallow everything. A strange light flickered in the black hole, as if it had endless mysterious power, slowly sucking the two of them in.

Time seemed to slow down at this moment. They just quietly felt each other's heartbeat and breathing, their hearts filled with an inexplicable tranquility and warmth.

They didn't know how long it had been, but when they opened their eyes again, they found themselves standing in front of the gate of Washington, and the familiar buildings and atmosphere hit them in the face.

The old tree in front of the door, which had long been withered, now has some tender green buds, which undoubtedly announces to people that the warm spring has arrived.

Hua Ye stood quietly in front of the door, staring at the two cold stone lions, and an inexplicable sense of intimacy suddenly surged in his heart.

She couldn't help but reach out and pat the cold stone lion's butt, as if she could feel the long-lost sense of belonging from it.

"We're not going back for nearly two months, are we? Will we really not be kicked out?"

She whispered to herself, and at the same time carefully stuck her head out and looked at the tightly closed door of Washington Palace, her heart full of anxiety and uneasiness.

"That shouldn't be the case. I didn't expect that Ye'er, who is usually fearless, is actually most afraid of my father-in-law and mother-in-law!"

Xu Zhi, who was standing by, couldn't help but tease her when he saw her timid look. His tone was relaxed, as if he was full of confidence in what was to come.

As he spoke, he walked around the stone lions and calmly stepped onto the steps in front of the Huafu Palace.

However, Hua Ye did not relax. She still hid in the corner, not daring to show her face easily, and could only secretly glance at the closed door.

"I think so!" Hua Ye muttered to himself.

At this moment, Hua Ye was surprised to find that the servant in front of the door immediately became respectful and even a little servile after seeing Xu.

This scene made her feel very disdainful, but she couldn't help but be curious about what they were talking about.

"Sir, you're here? Is my young lady back?"

The servant asked respectfully with a flattering smile on his face.

"Well, she is here, but she is afraid that your master will blame her, so she dare not go in."

Xu Zhi replied with a smile, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

Xuzhi glanced at the stone lion statue on the left side of the door and signaled to the servant: Your young lady is hiding there!

"Then please come in first, my son-in-law. My master will be back soon after the morning court session. Please wait in the mansion! I will go and invite my young lady!"

The servant welcomed Xu Zhi into the gate, arranged for someone to take him to the hall, and then trotted to where Hua Ye was.

Hua Ye couldn't help but pat the stone lion's butt, watching Xu Zhi enter the door of her house with eager eyes.

"Miss!"

The servant suddenly appeared behind Hua Ye and called out, which scared her slightly.

"Don't hide. Don't worry, the master will definitely not use military law this time. You can rest assured!"

"I can't be too worried. My dad's temper hasn't been going away for a day or two. How can he possibly give me face?"

Hua Ye kept complaining and turned around to run away, but was blocked by another servant.

"Miss, don't you know how much the old man has missed you since you got married? He went to Xu Mansion every few days to look for you, but every time he couldn't find you. Don't you know how sad he was!"

"Stop talking, you're giving me goosebumps. I can't reply yet. If my dad hits me, you guys better help stop him!"

Hua Ye reluctantly walked up the steps from the stone lion, pouting slightly with a cute look of both love and fear.
