Chapter 300: Chapter 300: Being Silly over Brother An
"Are you daft? Don’t we have a shop in the town?" Yang Chuxia paused and continued, "However, once Uncle Old Gen gets the shop ready, you can stay there directly after work at the restaurant. You can come back to the village the next day."
"Right, we’ll talk about it when the shop’s ready."
Yang Chuxia took a look around. Ms. Wang was busy in the kitchen, her siblings Yang Qingrui and Yang Xiayun were playing with a few chow chows, so she winked at Ye Zi’an.
Seeing her signal, Ye Zi’an figured she had something to say and followed her outside.
"Xiaxia!"
"Brother An, look what this is!" As Yang Chuxia spoke, she took something out of her bag.
"What is this?" Ye Zi’an opened it with a puzzled look. When he saw the writing on it, he froze. "Xiaxia, did you go see Grandpa Land Officer?"
"Of course!" Yang Chuxia responded with a brilliant smile. "We’ve bought slaves without proper placement, right? I can’t be fully reassured to keep them in that old house, so I thought about buying a couple of empty houses in the village. I mentioned this to Grandpa Land Officer, and he agreed."
"Xiaxia, thank you!" Ye Zi’an was chocked up looking at what he thought was lost forever. He originally planned to retrieve these things on his own, but Xiaxia had already taken care of everything for him. Suddenly, he felt useless.
He discreetly touched his leg and resolved to get an earlier treatment. After all, Xiaxia was growing more and more capable, and if he continued to remain the same, did he even have the right to be by her side?
Yang Chuxia was clueless about Zi’an’s internal struggle and said casually, "Who are we kidding? What’s there to be polite about? Let me tell you, I turned over Ms. Hua Junior’s house today. The woman really knows how to hide things, she even thought of creating a secret compartment under the bed."
"No wonder! I wondered why I never found anything before!" Upon hearing Yang Chuxia’s words, Ye Zi’an had an aha moment.
"You tried looking before?" Yang Chuxia had a weird look on her face, finding it hard to picture the gentle Ye Zi’an sleuthing.
"Yes, when she wasn’t paying attention." Ye Zi’an smiled. "I was young and immature then. I thought I could find the silver she collected and the deeds to our house and land, then sell them off sneakily in the town and get out. Unfortunately, I found nothing."
"Ha, I never thought you’d have such an idea."
Seeing Yang Chuxia’s hearty laugh, a subtle blush appeared on Ye Zi’an’s face. The first phrase that came to her mind when she looked at him was, "an elegant and handsome face." Without noticing, she stretched out her hand towards him, only stopping beside his ear.
It was then that she woke up from her dream with a sigh, berating herself for behaving silly in front of Ye Zi’an. But on second thought, this good-looking man was to be her husband in the future, meaning he was hers to be.
Considering this, advance touch-ups shouldn’t be a problem, right?
"Mmm, it’s okay." Unconsciously, she even voiced the latter sentence. Following this, a pair of feminine hands pounced on his glossy cheeks, making Ye Zi’an completely baffled.
Only after pinching his cheek a few times did Yang Chuxia put down her hand, still unsatisfied. "Your skin is too smooth, your eyes are brighter than mine, and your nose is higher than mine. If we walk around together in the future, people will definitely think you’re prettier than me."
"Isn’t that the truth?" Obviously still in a state of confusion, Ye Zi’an seemed to respond on the wrong cue.
