After crossing over: kidnapping a female hunter to be the stepfather of the three cubs
Chapter 125: Drinking Under the Moon
After Huanxi finished her shower, she was completely sleepless. She came out with a towel and saw Xu Qingzhao in the corridor. Since she couldn't sleep at this time anyway, she went to the house to get a wine glass and poured a pot of chrysanthemum yogurt. They drank two cups under the moon.
The stars are shining brightly tonight. Huanxi's hair is half dry now. She sits under the eaves in her inner clothes. There is a small tea table here, which is just enough for her to put her things.
"Huanhuan, I toast you with this glass of wine. Thank you for saving my life. Thank you also for taking me and my sister in."
She raised her glass and drank it all. Huanxi also raised her glass and said:
"Don't say that again. You and I are good friends, and you've already helped me a lot. After all, we should be even."
She drank the chrysanthemum yogurt in her cup clean. The wine had a faint chrysanthemum fragrance, but it was quite strong, otherwise she wouldn't have used the small cup to drink it, but the large teacup.
There was a spicy feeling in the throat. Huanxi narrowed her eyes, opened her mouth and took two breaths before she felt better.
"Hey, this wine is pretty strong. I guess I need to drink more, otherwise I'll get drunk after just two sips, which is so embarrassing."
"Your idea is quite unique."
The moonlight shone on the ground, and the candlelight shone on Huanxi's face and also on her heart. She loved looking into Huanxi's eyes. Although her pupils were the same color as hers, her eyes seemed to contain stars, everything, and now, it seemed as if her own shadow was also reflected in them.
Perhaps because of the alcohol, Huanxi was bolder and asked mysteriously, "Qingzhao, have you ever thought about starting a family in the future?"
Xu Qingzhao nodded gently and said, "I have thought about it, with someone."
If it's not a person or something, it would be too scary if it's half a person...
After pouring the wine, Xu Qingzhao asked again:
"What about you, Huanhuan? What are your plans for the future?"
"As for me, I don't know either. Right now, my priority is to make money. Everything will be easy if I have money. Besides, I'm not interested in men."
Her words were full of meaning, and a meaningful smile was on her face, which almost made Xu Qingzhao curl his lips.
Blame it on this woman being so pretty. I'll just assume I was drunk and acting crazy. Huanxi thought so.
A breeze blew Xu Qingzhao's hair to Huanxi's nose, bringing with it a faint fragrance. She touched her hair and found it was almost dry. It was time to go to bed.
"Qing Zhao, after drinking this cup, it's time for us to rest."
Xu Qingzhao said affectionately, "Okay."
Huanxi was already yawning before she even got to bed. Luckily, she had worked overtime tonight to plant the herbs, so she could still sleep in tomorrow.
Sleepiness came with the aroma of wine, and I fell asleep before my joy had even begun to brew.
In the other room, Xu Qingzhao recalled the cold beauty under the moonlight just now, who seemed untouched by the mundane world. Her every glance and smile deeply touched her heart.
She was so happy she didn't realize it, but she was truly captivating. It wasn't just her stunning appearance that captivated her at first glance. It was her aura that captivated her, that drew her in, that drew her in. She couldn't look away for even a moment.
It was not until noon the next morning that Huanxi strolled out of the room.
I finished my breakfast in a daze and then woke up a little.
Today I plan to take the orchid to the town to see the world and see what the market price of this orchid is. After being busy for so many days, it’s time to put some money in the account.
Last time I sold the medicinal herbs for thirty-six taels, plus my original forty taels, the total was seventy-six taels.
Later, he spent about ten taels of silver in the town, for a total of sixty-six taels of silver.
After leaving another fifty taels to buy land, there are only sixteen taels left, and there is also land to buy for growing crops, which is really a stretch.
I just wanted to go see Hongying. I haven't heard from her in a few days and I don't know how her father is doing.
She chose a smaller pot of Jade Orchid from the orchids, brought it back yesterday and planted it. It didn't take her many hours in total, so the pot of flowers only looks a little smaller, but the flowers are blooming well.
After she told Xu Qingzhao about her idea, she went back to her house to pull Shufeng over and hang it on the carriage. This half-carriage had been lying there for several days and was only now being used.
After saying hello to all the children in the family, Xu Qingzhao happily sat in the carriage and drove to the town.
I didn't come to town to sell medicinal herbs today, but as usual I went to Wenchuntang to see Doctor He and pick up some spices.
Unexpectedly, Dr. He no longer had the melancholy look he had when we last met, and had turned back into the humorous old man he was.
Just as she was greeting Doctor He, a lame woman came out. Seeing Huanxi, who was dressed so beautifully, she was so shocked that she almost couldn't speak.
"Da...Da Ya! How did you know I was here?"
Zhao Huanxi glanced up and saw that it was Luo. The woman who had suffered a stroke and was paralyzed that Doctor He mentioned when he came to town last time must be Luo.
She said expressionlessly: "How shameless do you think you are? I'm here for something."
Luo was now able to stand up again, albeit lame, but at least she was no longer a paraplegic lying down and needing to be waited on. She looked at Huanxi with a complicated expression.
Even though her husband and son were not human beings, they were still her flesh and blood. How could she ask them to do hard labor for three years? If they came back, would they still be able to survive?
This daughter...is too vicious.
Luo's face also turned cold and said, "I am your mother after all. Now that our family has been torn apart by you, how can you live with your conscience?"
Because it was morning, apart from Huanxi and Luo, there were only a few patients in Wenchun Hall who were pointing and talking at Huanxi.
"Ms. Luo Yunxiu, I've paid the silver for breaking off the engagement, but my father and my brother still wanted to set fire and kill people to silence them. The county magistrate was merciful and only sentenced them to three years. I have nothing to do with you now. While I still have patience, I advise you to shut up."
She rolled her eyes at Luo, wondering how she could have forgotten that the original owner had such an excellent mother. If she had known earlier, she would have dealt with them together and wouldn't have to bother arguing with her now.
Mrs. Luo was almost choked by her and could hardly speak, but it was indeed her husband and son who did something wrong first. She wanted to refute for a long time but couldn't utter a word.
He could only use his traditional skills and started rolling on the ground, without any regard for the feelings of other patients in Wenchun Hall and Dr. He and his apprentice.
Doctor He also understood what was going on. Some time ago, he heard people in the town saying that the county magistrate was trying a case in which his father and brother set fire to and murdered their daughter at night. It turned out that the victim was Huanxi.
No wonder Huanxi wrapped himself up like that the last time he came to the town. It turned out that he was still injured and came to exchange money to raise medical expenses.
Now, looking at the woman on the ground, her eyes were filled with a hint of contempt. A loving mother begets a filial son. A loving mother begets a filial son. She remembered the first time she met Zhao Yatou. The skinny girl, as thin as a bamboo pole, had come to exchange for the Ganoderma lucidum. Now that Zhao Yatou's family was perhaps better off, this woman should have been kind to her daughter, so she could have someone to see her off in the future. She was truly confused.
"Sister Luo, what's the point of making such a fuss? God is watching what you do, and there will be retribution. If you don't do it, there will be no retribution."
Doctor He's words were like a sharp knife piercing Luo's heart. Retribution...isn't what's happening to his husband and son now retribution...
Huanxi rolled her eyes. It seemed that she couldn't buy anything at Wenchuntang today. She could only say hello to the master and disciple and left with Xu Qingzhao.
As for the Luo family, just take care of yourself.
"Huanhuan, I know a place that specializes in selling flowers and birds. We can go there." Xu Qingzhao drove the carriage and said to Huanxi inside.
