What To Do if You’re the Villain and the Heroine Likes You

Chapter 103: Defeating Bad Water with Bad Water

.

.

.

After discovering that the book had been stolen, the first suspicion He Yunxiao had was an antidote girl.

Ordinary people who stole books would just take them and run away, without even burying them in the dirt.

Those who are more careful will take the book along with the handkerchief, and then bury the soil, disguising it as if no one had touched it, as a slight cover-up.

The one who digs up the soil, takes the book and then puts the handkerchief back, is telling you: I took the book and dont want the handkerchief back. What can you do?

It must be her!

The girl with the antidote is a black belly!

Shes so wicked and despicable!

How can you hold a grudge against me now?

I just have one of her handkerchiefs in my collection.

Thinking about this, He Yunxiao suddenly felt that something was wrong.

According to her character, there was no reason why she wouldnt ask me for the handkerchiefs with these books, right? Why didnt she mention this?

He Yunxiao put away the handkerchiefs and dug a few more layers of soil, but found nothing else.

After thinking about it for a while, He Yunxiao came under another tree.

At that time, the girl had deliberately made a mistake by not allowing the fallen fruit to return to its roots, so she had buried the bad fruit that had hit her head here.

When He Yunxiao turned over the soil, he lifted only one layer and saw an envelope.

He opened it and looked.

The first words on the first page were.

He Yunxiao, how dare you! How dare you peek at me!

He Yunxiao:

So she found out.

At that time, he did hide at a distance to watch Li Qingmeng, the antidote girl, shake the fruit. Not only did he see her being hit by the fruit, but he also saw her burying the fruit and seeing her getting chocked by the fruit seeds.

At that time, He Yunxiao was reluctant to show his head to meet her. but unfortunately, human calculations were not as good as heavens, and she got chocked eating the fruit, forcing He Yunxiao to show up to save her.

Looking at the first sentence of this letterhead, He Yunxiao shook his head with a bitter smile.

He himself had almost forgotten the situation at that time. But to his surprise, after several days, this girl, the antidote, had not only not forgotten, but also guessed the situation at that time. Guessed that he might have spied on her before he went to save her, and even designed to lure him out, so that He Yunxiao would admit the fact of spying.

How outrageous!

Her little belly is full of bad news, isnt it?

I at least saved her life, but shes even trying to set me up!

Then, the letter really did say something.

Ive taken your book. If you want it back, take the handkerchief and come to me at the West Side of the city.

Remembering that you saved my life and peeked at me, I wont settle with you for now.

Oh.

Looking for you?

Books for handkerchiefs?

Its just three good martial arts novels.

Which is not as important as the worlds unique, signed limited edition handkerchief of the girl of the antidote?

He Yunxiao is still able to distinguish between the lesser and the more important.

The fact that the handkerchief was so important to her meant that it could not be given to her easily.

He put the letter back into the envelope and put it back into its original place, burying it carefully and pretending that it hadnt been touched at all.

Bad water must be defeated with bad water!

Hmph, Ill go around to the west of the city near the Xian courtyard if theres nothing to do. but Ill give her the handkerchief without mentioning the martial arts novel, and Ill have to remind her all the time that I have it. Hey, just play!

The study of the He House.

He Yuanhao and Zhang Jingxian are sitting side by side, studying a large red fold.

This folding paper is quite uncomplicated. Even more exquisite than the one used by ministers to write to the emperor.

It was made of red silk paper, framed in mahogany, with a pond of lotus flowers and mandarin ducks drawn with a gold brush.

In Qi folklore, it is the custom for a man and a woman, one of whom is interested in marrying, to ask a matchmaker to make a match. The matchmaker first agrees with the parents of the other party, and then the parents agree to meet and each meets the others children, and when they see that they are suitable, the matter is settled.

Once the match has been decided, one of the mans elders will take the man to the womans home and ask her parents for a dowry. Once the bride accepts the marriage offer, the matter is mostly settled, and then an auspicious day is chosen for the bride to be married.

Most newlyweds never meet before the wedding.

Some of them were brave enough to sneak a peek.

If the family was well off, they would find a portrait and send it to the other party.

This custom was a little more complicated when it came to the families of emperors and marquises.

Other than that, the betrothal gift from the He family to the Empress Dowager must not be a random thing.

Marrying a princess had its own specifications, and there were requirements for the first and the second, the eldest and the youngest. Even if the He family had the money, it would be impossible for them to pay a heavy gift.

If the betrothal gift for marrying Nanzhu today is even higher than the betrothal gift for marrying a young woman in the future, wouldnt it be a disruption to distinguish between elders and children?

He Yuanhao and Zhang Jingxian discussed the matter for half a day and finally decided on the bridal gift required for marrying the Princess.

Fields, servants, livestock, mansions, calligraphy and paintings, farms, gold and cash

The entire large red folders were filled up with the total amount of gifts.

He Yuanhao said, I will personally go to the palace this afternoon to see the Empress Dowager and present the gift list to see if there are any mistakes or omissions. If there are none, I will then discuss with the Empress Dowager the matter of placing the betrothal gift and choosing a good date.

Zhang Jingxian instructed, Master, please hold your temper, this is a matter of Xiaos life.

He Yuanhao laughed, Am I that impulsive?

Zhang Jingxian said with resentment, In the beginning, who came to my Zhang family with a big sword and asked for my sisters hand in marriage?

He Yuanhao picked up his cup of tea and took a sip, saying, It was all a misunderstanding.

My sister but because of this matter with you, every time I came home, I was scorned by my father.

He Yuanhao smiled awkwardly, not daring to retort.

After a moment of silence, the topic came back to He Yunxiao.

Master, will Xiaoers marriage to Nanzhu affect your position with the prime minister?

He Yuanhao said boldly, Our familys status does not come from flattery. It is not something that can be affected by such a trivial matter. Besides, Han Wenxin, himself, is still thinking of sending his daughter to the palace to be the queen.

Zhang Jingxian hummed, Bragging.

How could He Yuanhao let his wife belittle him?

On the spot, he pulled out the Marquis tiger-headed military amulet and pressed it onto the big red folders filled with betrothal gifts.

If this is added to Yunxiaos betrothal gift, not to mention Nanzhu, it would be no problem to marry the Eldest Princess Meng together.

And you want to take two Princesses as daughters-in-law? Is there any such precedent in the past? Dream on!

Why not? Your ancestor, Lord Zhang Xian, fought off 8,000 soldiers on his own. If he had thought of you, where would the Meng surname have a place to speak in Qi?

You mean that by marrying my sister and me, you are also considered two princesses?

Haha, ma.

Zhang Jingxian stood up, and patted her dress skirt, sweeping away the non-existent dust.

Jingxian asked the kitchen to make black chicken soup today, seeing as how your lordship is so lively, Im sure you dont need to nourish yourself. Its good that Xiaoer has been growing recently, so Ill have the kitchen bring it directly to Xiaoers house. Master should eat something light, to change his taste.

Seeing that the situation was not right, He Yuanhao hastened to make a plea to stay, but to his surprise, Zhang Jingxian did not even turn her head back and opened the door and left.

Hey, Xianer. I dont mean that

The old Marquis shook his head helplessly.

The two sisters really have the same temper.

He Yunxiao was in quite a good mood today, and as soon as he arrived home he rushed towards the study.

Not for any other reason, just to find out if there was any more good book.

Once he entered the study and saw He Yuanhao, He Yunxiao said curiously, Father, why do you have the grace to come and sit in the study today?

When He Yuanhao saw He Yunxiao, he was furious.

Which foot did you just step into the study?

He Yunxiao: ????

Left foot?

In our study, you can only step into it with your right foot!

He Yunxiao: Damn it! This is clearly bullying honest people!

Father, when was this rule made?

Its just been set.

I didnt know.

Youre dissatisfied?

No. Father, lets talk about this. Put the rod down first, its tiring to hold it in your hand all the time.
