I just want to repair a flute [Martial Arts]

After living in Shenshui Palace for a full month, Yun Chuxiu felt that his life had become boring.

"Why...I have to get up and practice before 5am every day?!" He lay in bed in grief, complaining to Yuan Suiyun. "My godmother is so unreasonable. Even my master doesn't discipline me like this!"

Jellyfish Yin Ji was very annoyed by his laziness: "Every day when it gets dark, you have to take a shower, get a massage, and sleep. You don't even get up when the sun is high in the sky! I thought Yuan Suiyun did something to you, but it turns out you are just lazy!"

She had been practicing martial arts diligently throughout her life, even when she was sleeping, she would have liked to use her time to meditate and practice. Her current fame was all the result of her hard work. She had originally thought that her adopted son's martial arts were quite unique and strange, so she wanted to teach him a thing or two. However, she had no idea that it would be so difficult to just wake him up early, and she was almost pissed off to death by him.

"How can this be called laziness? This is my normal need!" Yun Chuxiu said confidently. "I don't want to be like Lao Yuan, getting up at dawn to practice martial arts! Besides, I have been doing this for many years, and my martial arts skills are not too bad!"

"Alas..." Jellyfish Yin Ji sighed sincerely. "I now understand why your master threw you into the snowy mountains before teaching you martial arts, and forbade you to leave the mountain until you had mastered it..."

What can a master do when faced with such a bad apprentice? !
Yuan Suiyun smiled and agreed, "It shows that sometimes, coercion is still useful."

Yun Chuxiu: “?”

But in general, with Yun Chuxiu as an example, Shuiji Yinji's affection for the hardworking and intelligent Yuan Suiyun grew day by day, and she no longer disliked him as she did at the beginning. However, when Yun Chuxiu was not in front of her, she said to Yuan Suiyun calmly: "There are some things that I don't need to say more. I won't stop you two from doing this, but I don't think you can make it to the end. After all, how many people in the martial arts world don't know your name, Young Master Yuan?"

He is the young master of Wuzheng Villa and the only son of Yuan Dongyuan! Yuan Dongyuan had a son in his old age, and it once became a famous joke in the martial arts world. The responsibility on Yuan Suiyun's shoulders is not as simple as inheriting Wuzheng Villa.
However, when she thought of what Yun Chuxiu had said and done, Shuiji Yinji felt that she didn't need to worry about him at all: "Xiaoyun, he is a broad-minded child. I don't think he will be trapped by love. Yuan Suiyun, maybe you are the one who needs to let go."

Of course, the feelings of young people are like a raging fire, which will never burn out in a short time. A monster like her who loves women also fell in love with Xiong Niangzi and sincerely hoped to live with him. However, the other party was unwilling to stay in this quiet valley that would drive him crazy, and her love was completely extinguished with the death of her daughter Situ Jing.

From this we can see that the changes in the world are truly unpredictable. Who knows what these two people will become in the future?
——But perhaps, deep in her heart, she actually hoped that they could keep going. It was not because of her preference for Yun Chuxiu, nor was it because she was waiting to see Wu Zheng Villa become a joke. It was something she had been afraid to face for half her life, and she really hoped that someone could prove to her that someone could do it.

Yun Chuxiu had no idea that she had thought about so many things with a motherly mentality, nor did he know what kind of thoughtful expression Yuan Suiyun had after listening to her. He still had a lot of troubles to deal with due to the kidnapping.

The first was Yaoyao, who was "stolen" by Sikong Zhaixing. Hua and Lu personally brought her to Shenshui Palace. When the little maid saw him, she first rushed over to check on him, and then she couldn't help but touch the scar on his face and burst into tears.

"Woo woo, Master, are you disfigured? You have such a pretty face, it's all my fault that I didn't follow you - when I get back, I'll, I'll apologize to the Master! -"

"No, this little wound will heal in a few days. When the time comes, just grind some pearl powder on me and apply it." Yun Chuxiu took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and smeared her face. He thought that if you came, I would be afraid of the consequences. I don't know how I would die. "Okay, stop crying. Go and cook me some side dishes to go with the wine."

"Yes!" Yaoyao was immediately excited when she heard her young master's request. Who could understand her young master's preferences better than her? She wiped her tears and followed Jiu to the kitchen.

Lu Xiaofeng was feeling emotional because he had only been away for two days, and when he came back everything was settled. He could even walk into the Shenshui Palace openly, which was beyond everyone's expectations. At the same time, he joked with Yun Chuxiu, who was doing a long-overdue reexamination on Hua Manlou, "Your little sister is really hard to take care of. If you were a few days later, I'm afraid she would cry her eyes blind and I wouldn't be able to explain to you!"

Yun Chuxiu put down his hand and rolled his eyes at him in anger: "Don't give me that. You, Lu Xiaofeng, are so famous, can't you handle her? Also, Yaoyao is not a little sister. She looks young, but she is actually over 30 years old, older than you!"

Hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng's expression changed drastically, and he jumped up on the spot: "Xue'er is here? Did you collude with her?!"

"What collusion?" Yun Chuxiu was confused. However, Hua Manlou looked at the funny way they stared at each other and couldn't help but unfold his folding fan and smiled slightly.

After a while, Yun Chuxiu learned from him that the clever Xue'er had deceived Lu Xiaofeng twice. Once was when they just met, she claimed to be Shangguan Danfeng's cousin and coaxed him to call her little cousin. The other time was after she dealt with Huo Xiu, she said that she was about to become Zhu Ting's concubine, and said that the boss's wife had agreed. Lu Xiaofeng was so scared that he ran to ask Zhu Ting, but was severely despised by the boss.

Because they actually adopted Xue'er as their adopted daughter. "Since then, he would run away in fear just hearing Xue'er's name." Hua Manlou's expression was rarely mischievous. Lu Xiaofeng just looked at him helplessly, but did not interrupt him to tell his embarrassing story. Instead, he waited until he finished speaking before sighing, "Hua Manlou, Hua Manlou, you are becoming less and less lovable."

"Lu Xiaofeng, ah Lu Xiaofeng, then, who did this?"

"How should I know? It's not me. After all, Dad said I took good care of you." Lu Xiaofeng smiled proudly. Hua Manlou shook his head and said nothing.

Yun Chuxiu nearly fell off his chair laughing. "Hahahahahaha! You believe everything she says. You must have suffered a lot from women!"

He held his stomach and wiped away his tears. It took him a long while to speak normally: "When I picked up Yaoyao, she was this small. She was beaten all over and only had one breath left. It was terrifying. I originally thought that it was a father beating his daughter. After all, this kind of thing is actually very common. But later I found out that it was actually a husband beating his wife."

He was so engrossed in what he was saying that he didn't notice that Yuan Suiyun and Jellyfish Yinji had come up behind him. The latter frowned slightly and stopped immediately.

"After I cured Yaoyao, I asked her whether she wanted to follow me and my master, or go back. She wanted to stay, and she has stayed ever since. In fact, she didn't have this name before, but she didn't want the old name anymore, so I gave her a new one." Yun Chuxiu shrugged. "It is said that her appearance has not changed since she got married. I can't figure out why. It's really strange. Her husband thought she was immortal and even cut off her flesh to eat. Can you believe it? Of course, if it happened to another woman, she would be very happy, but Yaoyao..."

She didn't care about her appearance or her identity. She stayed with Yun Chuxiu just to be a "useful person" - this was probably the aftereffect of years of abuse, insults and blame from her husband.

"Where is her husband?" asked Shuiji Yinji. Yun Chuxiu turned around and saw Yuan Suiyun standing beside him. He couldn't help but hold his hand and let him sit next to him. "He died a long time ago. I taught Yaoyao martial arts not for show. The rules of our family have always been to repay grievances and revenges!"

He sneered and said to Jellyfish Yin Ji: "Many people seem to think that once a woman gets married, she is just an object. No matter how he treats her, it's fine as long as he is happy. Since he thinks this way, of course we have to fulfill his wish and let him have a taste of what it feels like to be an object!"

Meeting his gaze, Jellyfish Yin Ji nodded: "That's right. In that case, it was her luck that she met you. There are too many women in the world who just lack the ability to resist."

"In addition to ability, you also need courage! The emperor's concubine can also become an empress. Godmother, did you establish the Shenshui Palace with the help of others? If they can't get out of it themselves, it's useless to give them ability." Yun Chuxiu answered casually. After all, the point was not here, so he soon smiled again: "But back then, I picked up Yaoyao and Li Zixi and took them home. Even Master laughed at me for picking up rags. It was too much! Look at how cute Yaoyao is now. The charlatan is actually not ugly. Just because his eyes look different from those of normal people, everyone is afraid of him. What's the reason for this?"

Yun Chuxiu couldn't figure it out, but he didn't force it. Li Zixi didn't care anyway. Life is hard and all living things suffer. If everyone can live a good life, they should be thankful.

Then, he heard Yuan Suiyun gently ask: "Isn't Li Zixi your enemy?"

"Ah!" Finally realizing that he had let something slip, Yun Chuxiu poked him with his elbow with a smile: "Well, I lied before, but you also guessed that there was a problem, so you won't be angry with me for this, right?"

Yuan Suiyun looked at him deeply and said, "Aren't you afraid that the old man will find the person and accidentally hurt your friend? It's better to tell fewer lies like this in the future."

"No, no." Yun Chuxiu was not worried. He used to believe in someone's ability to escape, but now he was more direct - Li Zixi was not in this world at all. Even if the old man had omnipotent means, how could he find the trace of a person in another world?
He did not notice that Lu Xiaofeng was pointing at him, and he and Hua Manlou exchanged a knowing look. All his attention was on Yuan Suiyun beside him - Damn, Old Yuan was indeed very unhappy.

After all, he escaped from the peach blossom forest in front of someone. Everyone knows each other's background. But now, are they going to talk about the peach blossom forest?
