Chapter 128 Go out for a walk
When they arrived in the village, everyone looked on with envy when they saw their horse-drawn carriage. The Wen family's life was getting better and better!
I heard they're going to discuss building a house today. They want to see if any of their children can help out; the benefits are really good!
Old Mrs. Zhou was catching ants with Wen Youcai under a big tree when she heard the villagers say that her least favorite son was going to build a big house. She felt a pang of sadness, and then she looked at her mentally challenged grandson and sighed.
"Grandma! Grandma! I want a wife! I want a wife!"
Wen Youcai, who was playing happily, suddenly threw the bowl on the ground and lay down, rolling around in pain.
Old Mrs. Zhou took a limp, melted candy from her sleeve and coaxed softly, "Grandma, I'll find you one in a few days! Let's go home, let's go home."
Qian Zhaodi has already gone to Yang Xiu's parents' home. Once she gets the money back, she will buy a wife for her eldest grandson!
Buy one that's good-looking and easy to raise!
Upon seeing the candy, Wen Youcai happily got up from the ground and obediently followed Old Zhou.
When the carriage arrived at the courtyard gate, Gu Yunqi first unloaded the things and ran into the house, acting as if he had been there many times before.
Wen Luozhi took the brocade box into Helian Yue's room, with Mo Li following behind her, carrying a basin of warm water in both hands.
"Try it quickly," she said, placing the brocade box in front of Helian Yue without revealing what it contained.
Helian Yue was puzzled, but when he opened the box and saw what was inside, he was stunned.
He forgot to ask Qianqian if she had any more yesterday, but he didn't expect her to bring them back today.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and try it on! Once you put it on, you can go out and play!"
"It's so boring inside!"
Upon hearing this, Helian Yue smiled slightly at her, cleansed his face under her expectant gaze, and then put on the leather.
The mask was stuck to his face perfectly, and Wen Luozhi watched as his face slowly changed from being incomparably handsome to being ordinary.
Although I was mentally prepared, I was still a little shocked. Wolf Batian circled around Helian Yue's feet.
Ugh, why am I going outside? If I have to wear this thing when I go outside, how am I supposed to look at handsome men?!
It forgot where it heard it, but as long as you look at good-looking people before transforming into human form, you won't look bad after transforming into human form!
This guy is about to leave, and he's almost invisible. Now that he's going out of the house, won't we see him even less often?
Wen Luozhi simply picked it up by the scruff of its neck with both hands and threw it far away from the door.
Hmph! She knows what it's going to say the moment it sticks out its wolf butt! It's clearly just a spirit pet, yet it stares at people like a pervert all day long, making everyone who sees it lose face!
Helian Yue smiled as he looked at the man and the wolf. He didn't quite understand why the snow wolf had been staring at him ever since he woke up.
Sometimes I would lie on his bed and look at him, sometimes I would stand on the table and look at him; my lively eyes were just like someone else's.
"Come out quickly! I'll take you for a walk."
Wen Luozhi waved to him, and he quickly put down the military book in his hand and left the room.
She skipped and hopped ahead, the sachet at her waist dancing freely with her movements, while Helian Yue followed behind her with incredibly gentle eyes.
The courtyard gate could finally be opened openly, and Wen Luozhi led the people out.
Gu Yunqi saw that the two of them originally wanted to go out together, but Helian Yue glared at him and made him retract the leg that had stepped out.
He pouted, "What a womanizer! He'll go find Xiao Yan to play with!"
Inside, the three children—Xiao Hu, Mo Li, and Helian Zhiyan—were already playing together. Gu Yunqi pushed open the door and entered. Helian Zhiyan looked up, saw him, and rushed towards him with open arms.
"Yun... Brother Wang Liu!"
She hugged Gu Yunqi with a smile, her fair face showing surprise and dependence.
Yesterday, he tore off his mask inside the house and the little girl recognized him; otherwise, she would have been scared away by him today.
Gu Yunqi chuckled and led her over to greet the other two children. When he saw what they were playing, he became interested and soon joined them.
The two walked along the village road. It was a cloudy day with a cool breeze, perfect for a stroll.
Because it was almost noon, many aunties and girls came back from the fields to cook. When they saw the two walking together, they were taken aback for a moment, and then greeted them warmly:
"Sister Luo'er is back! And who is this young master?"
Grandma Sun's daughter-in-law was on her way to deliver food when she saw Helian Yue and was a little curious. Apart from Wen Luozhi's brothers, she had never seen her get so close to any man before!
"Sister-in-law, are you bringing us food? This is my cousin; he's come to check on us."
As she spoke, she nudged the man beside her with her elbow, and Helian Yue nodded slightly to Yang Cuier opposite him as a greeting.
Yang Cuier's eyes darted back and forth between the two of them, then she pulled Wen Luozhi aside and whispered, "Luoer, tell your sister-in-law, is your relationship with your cousin..."
"Sister-in-law Cui'er, it's not what you think! Go and deliver the food!"
Wen Luozhi laughed and interrupted her, pushing her forward, then turned around and pulled Helian Yue in the opposite direction.
Yang Cuier watched the two figures as they walked away with a smile on her face. Yesterday, her mother came back from town and said that Luo'er had reached the age to be married!
Look! Their relationship doesn't seem like that of ordinary people.
This young man is quite handsome and tall. Luo'er feels safe around him, like a little kitten! She doesn't have to worry about being bullied.
And the way that young man looked at Luo'er—what else could it be but liking?
This young man looks so much better than Lin Huaizhi. That guy can't lift a finger and would fall over if the wind blew him down!
She wouldn't look down on them at all, especially since scholars are very aloof and look down on those who deal with crops all year round.
The two slowly walked to the foot of Jitou Mountain. When Wen Luozhi looked up, all she could see were bare patches of land.
Only when you squint and look closely can you see those small fruit tree seedlings standing in the ground.
"Come to my house for fruit from now on, and there'll be plenty of fruit to go around!"
She patted her chest, turned around, and looked at Helian Yue with a smile. Putting aside Lin Huaizhi's desire to get rid of Bilian, she was in a very good mood after returning home.
The system just notified her that the task was completed, and the rewards this time were much greater than before. There were so many useful and useless items that her backpack was almost full.
There are still a few plots of land cleared out at the foot of the mountain, where she has a lot of vegetable seeds that can be planted all year round. She will start seedlings there later.
Anyway, these lands won't be left idle. Once the restaurant opens, she can pick vegetables from her own land, which is both safe and cost-effective.
Helian Yue chuckled softly; he genuinely admired her.
If a young woman can live a prosperous life in a village, then a noble lady from a wealthy family in the capital would have starved to death many times over.
After all, all they do is show off and be jealous all the time. How could a seasoned veteran like him possibly look down on them?
