The whole family went crazy after reading my mind, and I became a favorite after eating melons

Chapter 73 Stubbornness
  Hua Rong looked at Zhang Qili, who had a nervous face. He had so many thoughts in his heart, but he couldn't say a word.

Zhang Qili mistook her complexion for being uncomfortable and was speechless. He turned around in circles anxiously, and then shouted to the official, "Hurry up and ask the doctor for the best..."

The words stopped because of the hand on his arm.

Huarong said softly.

"I'm fine. I just thought of some things from the past. Why did you leave so suddenly and never go back?"

Some questions have answers before they are asked, so why do you still ask? Do you want to hear the same answer as you guessed, or do you want to give people a chance to veto?

Zhang Qili's Adam's apple slid up and down.

"There are so many reasons. It's just that I'm tired of staying in Yangzhou Mansion."

Tired.

Of course there is no reason to go back.

Hua Rong didn't ask any more questions, but walked past him, took Xu Zhiyan in his hand, and followed her back to the small courtyard where she lived. While packing her things, Xu Zhiyan couldn't help but glance at Hua Rong. After being discovered, she didn't hold her hands. ran to her side.

"Mom, I think Uncle Zhang is very good, better than dad!"

Hua Rong touched her head.

Any man in the world is better than Xu Ziying, the scumbag who spoiled his concubines, destroyed his wife, and tried to murder his own daughter.

"Mom knows that Nannan gets along well with Uncle Zhang here, but Uncle Zhang is Uncle Zhang, and dad is dad."

In just one sentence, Xu Zhiyan understood that Hua Rong had no romantic feelings for Zhang Qili, and she suddenly felt a little depressed. Still haven't gotten married yet. 】

[Hey, but my mother doesn’t know anything about Uncle Zhang’s intentions, so she doesn’t actually need to respond. 】

After thinking about it, Xu Zhiyan threw these things into a ball and started to pack her things wholeheartedly. The clothes and other things she brought were packed by Xiaoxi, and she only packed the small items she bought after coming here.

There was even a box of broken bits and pieces.

She watched cherishedly as the servant put the box of things into the carriage for her return trip, and then left with peace of mind.

The next day, Xu Zhiyan was taken into the carriage and said goodbye to Zhang Qili through the carriage window.

"Uncle Zhang, I will definitely come back next year to see you parade around the streets with your god on your back. Then you have to prepare candied haws for me!"

Zhang Qili naturally agreed.

The wheels turn.

The motorcade drove away as he watched.

Until the last carriage disappeared from sight, he didn't see the person he was thinking about show up, his smile collapsed, and his whole person was visibly depressed.

"Butler, do you think she has noticed my feelings for her? I've obviously hidden it carefully, and I don't intend to get more, so why is it still like this?"

Love cannot be hidden for a long time, so in order to maintain a friendship with Hua Rong, he made up his mind to go away from home for several years, never expecting that the secret might still be exposed.

The housekeeper knew that Zhang Qili didn't need his answer at this time, so he said nothing.

In the motorcade that had already left the city gate, Xu Zhiyan was playing with a small doll. In the middle of playing, she suddenly said, "I miss Uncle Zhang a little."

Hua Rong nodded the tip of her nose with a half-smile.

"I have stayed with His Highness the Crown Prince in Yingzuigou for so long, and I never heard you say "I miss you, Your Highness" when we parted. I only got along with your Uncle Zhang for less than a month, and I said I thought about it when we were separated. If Your Highness finds out about this, , designated to be angry.”

Xu Zhiyan shook her head.

"Brother Wen Jin won't be angry. Brother Wen Jin has a good temper!"     Have a good temper?
  The corner of Hua Rong's mouth twitched, "You don't think His Highness has a good temper until you have done something wrong. In order to prevent you from being a monster and seeing His Highness angry, you will not be allowed to travel far from home in the future. You will stay in Yangzhou Mansion. Learn chess, calligraphy, painting and business."

Xu Zhiyan was not satisfied.

"I do not want!"

"I can't tolerate it if you don't want it."

……

Hua Rong loved Xu Zhiyan but did not dote on her. He kept his promise. For the next twelve years, Xu Zhiyan was unable to step out of Yangzhou Prefecture.

She had made a fuss, but after seeing that the natural disaster in the book that was supposed to last for nearly two years ended in less than a year under Li Wenjin's governance, she became honest.

Just kidding, even the trajectory of major events has changed. The rest of it is still somewhat the same as in her memory. It’s better to be honest and learn more to save her life.

It's just that there are always some people who are always committed to disturbing her peaceful life.

Xu Zhiyan, who was already sixteen years old, threw the brush out with a bang, and the wet ink on the brush drew traces on the ground.

"Why is this Xu Xingrou so annoying! I haven't been out for half a month. I finally went out and wanted to buy something, and she deliberately grabbed it from me. But my father blamed me and asked me to copy the female ring!"

[I can’t write, I can’t write at all! Why! 】

Xu Zhiyan sat down hard, wrinkled her face and rubbed her wrists, which were so painful from copying books.

A pair of well-jointed hands stretched out from the side, gently held her forearm, and spread the milky white ointment evenly on her hand. The cold touch relieved the pain in her wrist and made her feel calm. A lot.

She pouted, ignoring the fact that she was still applying the medicine, and threw herself into the arms of the person who was applying the medicine for her.

"Brother, I'm so angry. Can you do better in the imperial examination this year and come back to avenge me by becoming the number one scholar?"

Xu Zhiyan raised her head and looked at Xu Yannan with bright eyes.

Yes, after more than ten years of treatment by Xu Zhiyan, Xu Yannan's legs were completely healed this year, and it just so happened that he could register for the imperial examination.

As for why he said he got the top prize just to avenge her...

"The reason why Lin Wanniang was supported as a concubine is because her son Xu Shixue passed the exam and became a minor official in the Hanlin Academy. As long as you do better than him in the exam, eldest brother, they will definitely be angry to death!"

Just thinking about Xu Xingrou's expression at that time made Xu Zhiyan almost unable to hold back her laughter.

Xu Yannan smiled helplessly.

"You."

Silly sister, she doesn’t even know how to get back after being bullied, but it’s okay if she doesn’t know how, her brothers are all here, and there’s no need for her to be exposed to those dark things.

"Stop copying the book. Big brother will help you solve it. You wait here for Xiao Qing to come back. Brother will go out and won't come back to eat at night."

Xu Yannan explained carefully, and after receiving his sister's response, he stood up and walked out step by step.

Xu Zhiyan lay on the desk and looked at his back, feeling relieved.

[My walking is getting better and better now. I can’t even tell that I am a person who has been in a wheelchair for more than ten years. I am really amazing. Give yourself a thumbs up! 】

Xu Yanqing couldn't laugh or cry when she heard Xu Zhiyan's narcissism as soon as she arrived.

"Nanny, what are you thinking about? Come and see what I have brought you!"
