Chapter 646: Looking at You in a New light

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

As Yu Niaoniao walked, she told him about her experience of wanting to escape.

She did not think much of it when she did those things back then. Now that time had passed, she could not help but think of it as ridiculous.

She was a little embarrassed at first, but as she spoke, she couldn’t help but laugh.

She looked ahead and sighed sincerely. “At that time, a rumor about you was circulating in the whole Imperial Capital. It described you as being especially scary. I was very afraid that you would come looking for trouble with me, so I could only escape through the dog hole. I didn’t expect to fall into your hands in the end. That dog hole was for nothing.” Xiao Juan said, “You didn’t go through the dog hole for nothing.” Yu Niaoniao looked at him in confusion.

Xiao Juan looked down at her and said seriously, “If you hadn’t escaped through the dog hole that night, I wouldn’t have met you.”

In that case, they might have missed each other.

Yu Niaoniao shook her head and said, “In that case, we have to thank that dog hole.”

Xiao Juan said seriously, “I have to thank it properly.” Yu Niaoniao pursed her lips and smiled.

“Unfortunately, that dog hole has been blocked.” 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝑒𝓌𝑒𝒷𝘯ℴ𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Xiao Juan said, “If you like it, we’ll make a dog hole in our courtyard in the future.”

Yu Niaoniao deliberately teased him. “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll crawl out of the dog hole and meet someone else in private?”

Xiao Juan was very sure. “You won’t.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Then what if our child discovers the dog hole and likes to crawl out and play? Aren’t you going to care?”

Xiao Juan thought about it seriously. This was indeed a problem that needed to be treated seriously.

It would be fine if it was a stinky son, but if it was a precious daughter who secretly ran out and was molested by someone else’s pig, it would definitely not work. fre(e)novelkiss.com

After weighing the pros and cons, Xiao Juan made a decision. “Then let’s not have a dog hole.”

Yu Niaoniao laughed at his serious expression.

Why was he so cute?

Yu Niaoniao extended her pinky and hooked his finger. She shook it gently and asked curiously.

“Do you want a son or a daughter?”

Xiao Juan said without hesitation, “Daughter.”

Yu Niaoniao was puzzled. “Why? What’s wrong with a son?”

“A son is not bad either, but I want a daughter like you.”

Yu Niaoniao threw out a new problem. “But daughters have to get married when they grow up. Can you bear to?”

“Then don’t let her get married. We can find her a live-in son-in-law.”

“It’s not that easy to find a live-in son-in-law.” “We’ll take our time. You’ll find one eventually.”

They held hands and chatted as they walked.

As the sun set, golden light fell on them, coating them in a warm gauze.

They had just won a huge battle, so they naturally had to celebrate.

That night, Tang Guixi held a celebration party in the city to celebrate their successful recapture of Heng City. They had taken the first step for the Eastern Expedition Army to recover their lost land!

Due to the limited conditions, there were no good wine or dishes, but at least everyone could eat their fill.

Everyone ate to their hearts’ content.

Tang Guixi was the happiest.

She had drunk a little too much and was a little drunk.

When the banquet was over and everyone had left, she was still sitting there laughing foolishly.

Yu Niaoniao went to wake her up.

“It’s getting late. We should go back and rest.”

Tang Guixi hugged her and chuckled. “Niaoniao, do you think my father can see me from the sky? If he finds out that I won the battle, will he be happy for

Yu Niaoniao looked up at the dazzling starry sky and said gently and firmly.

“I’m sure he will. I’m sure he’s happier than anyone.”

Tang Guixi suddenly looked up and shouted at the starry sky above.

“Father, I’m not embarrassing you!”

“So, rest in peace.”

The Eastern Expedition Army took root in Heng City. Even the villages and towns near Heng City were included in their sphere of influence.

Among them was the Xia Family Village.

Xia Haisheng and the villagers of the Xia Family Village were able to return to their homes.

They packed their luggage early in the morning and returned to the Xia Family Village in high spirits.

Although the houses in the village had been emptied and the chicken coops, cowsheds, and other places had been destroyed, fortunately, their fields were still fine.

They could still farm. As long as food grew in the fields, they could resume their old lives.

There was still hope!

In order to make more effective use of the fields, Tang Guixi calculated the fields near Heng City and divided them according to the number of heads.

Be it the commoners or the soldiers of the Eastern Expedition Army, every adult could obtain two acres of land.

Of course, these fields alone were far from enough. They had to let the soldiers of the Eastern Expedition Army lead their men to reclaim the wasteland.

There was also a performance evaluation every month. The team that reclaimed the most fields could receive additional rewards.

The entire army was extremely busy.

Even Shen Xu, the heir, could not stay idle.

He rolled up his sleeves and farmed with Xia Haisheng and the others under the sun.

Before this, he had suggested asking the aunts and uncles in the village for advice on farming. He was mentally prepared, but when he really got into the land, he realized that farming was far more tiring than he had expected.

After only a day of work, he was so tired that his back ached. When he returned home, he looked at the blisters on his hands and almost cried.

He had never suffered like this in his life.

Prince Min brought the ointment to apply on him.

His heart ached as he looked at his precious son’s blistered hands.

“This is only the first day and you’re already like this. Are you still going tomorrow?”

At this moment, Shen Xu’s temper flared up. He said with a vicious cycle,

“Whoever wants to go can go. Anyway, I’m not going! I’ve had enough!”

At this moment, a servant rushed in and reported, “Your Highness, Prince,

General Tang is here.”

Prince Min and Shen Xu were shocked.

Right on the heels of that, they saw Tang Guixi stride in.

Tang Guixi had probably just finished work in the fields and her forehead was covered in sweat.

She was wearing a round-necked narrow-sleeved robe that men often wore. Her hair was combed into a high ponytail. Because she often bathed in the sun, her skin was a little darker than that of ordinary girls. However, because her eyes were bright and her words and actions were suave, she had an extraordinary valiant temperament.

Prince Min stood up. “Guixi, why are you here?”

Tang Guixi said generously, “I heard that Shen Xu worked in the fields all day today and thought it was quite rare, so I came to see him.”

At this point, her gaze landed on Shen Xu and she saw the blister on his hand.

“Yo, you have blisters! Looks like you’ve really been busy all day. You’ve really impressed me.”

Shen Xu switched from his anger and grievance just now. His heart was filled with pride and joy.

To be able to make Tang Guixi look at him in a different light meant that his hard work today had not been in vain.

The corners of his mouth curled up hard, and his smugness was obvious. If he had a tail behind him now, it would definitely wag especially happily.

Tang Guixi lifted the hem of her shirt and sat down at the table. She casually picked up the medication bottle on the table and looked at it.

“There’s nothing wrong with applying ointment to your blisters but you have to break them to recover quickly.”

The smile on Shen Xu’s face froze.

W-what? She actually wanted to break them? That would hurt to death!
