Zhou Linghuai nodded. “I have to keep your things well.”


When her cousin said this, a smile appeared on his lips. It was like a gust of wind that suddenly wrinkled a pool of spring water. Ripples spread on the sparkling water surface layer by layer.


This smile made Yu Youyao’s heart surge like a ripple on a lake. “Why?”


Why? If I want to do it, I’ll do it. Why are there so many whys? Zhou Linghuai’s smile deepened. “Probably because I’m worried that one day, you’ll dig up old scores with me?”


This was different from what she had expected. Yu Youyao pouted. “Cousin, are you still afraid of this?”


In her heart, her cousin was omnipotent, as if nothing frightened him.


“Yes, I’m afraid!” Zhou Linghuai admitted openly. He did not feel that the word “afraid” seemed to be a little cowardly, and it would also damage his manhood.


He took Yu Youyao’s hand and held it gently.


Zhou Linghuai’s palm was very big, wrapping her delicate hand in it, as if they were naturally compatible. “I’m very afraid of you. Because you’re angry with me, you’ll ignore me in the future.”


Yu Youyao’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Then, help me break a bunch of apricot branches. I promise that I won’t ignore you because of this in the future.” Since her cousin had been brooding over this matter, let’s call it even. “I want the best apricot branches on the tree.”


Zhou Linghuai’s smile deepened. “Okay!”


Chang An pushed Zhou Linghuai to the lake. With a flick of his finger, a white chess piece shot out with a whoosh. With a crack, a red, pink, and white branch from the apricot tree fell from the tree and was caught by Zhou Linghuai.


He repeated his move and the branches fell one after another.


Chang An pushed Zhou Linghuai back.


Zhou Linghuai handed the apricot branches to Yu Youyao. “Do you like them?”


Yu Youyao quickly took the apricot branches and smiled happily. “I like it. I like it too much. Cousin’s taste is definitely the best.”


Although the peach blossoms were beautiful, they were not as beautiful as the apricot flowers.


Apricot flowers were beautiful, but they were not as bright as Yu Youyao.


After obtaining the apricot flowers, Zhou Linghuai changed his path.


After taking a few steps, Yu Youyao saw two rows of silver flowers planted on both sides of the limestone path. The trees were strange, strong, simple, and elegant.


It wasn’t even May but the crepe myrtle had already surrounded the blooming branches. It was beautiful.


The beautiful scene made her feel very good. Unknowingly, they had arrived at the Bodhisattva of Wishes. Yu Youyao stood in the pavilion not far away and looked out.


The pavilion was located at a high spot, taking in the tall wishing Bodhi.


Yu Youyao pointed at a red ribbon at the top of the Bodhi of Wishes and exclaimed, “Cousin, look, someone can throw a wishing silk so high!” Zhou Linghuai took a look but smiled without saying anything.


Yu Youyao was only curious. “I heard that if you’re sincere, it’ll work. The higher you throw the wishing silk, the more effective it will be. I wonder if the owner of the wishing silk has fulfilled his wish.”


Zhou Linghuai said meaningfully, “Perhaps it has already been realized.”


Yu Youyao nodded. “The Bodhisattva of Wishes is really effective. The wish I made three years ago has also been fulfilled.”


When Zhou Linghuai heard this, he deliberately asked, “What wish did you make? Previously, you didn’t tell me because you were worried that your wish wouldn’t come true if you said it. Now that your wish has been fulfilled, you can tell me, right?”


Yu Youyao blinked. “Guess?!”


Zhou Gonghuai chuckled. “Probably something about health.”


Yu Youyao’s eyes widened. “How, how did you guess?”


As he had already seen it, Zhou Linghuai smiled and said, “You said that my wish had already been fulfilled. In the past three years, the biggest change in me was probably that my legs and my body had recovered.”


Yu Youyao pursed her lips. “You’ve already guessed it, but you’re still deliberately asking me.”


Zhou Linghuai nodded. “I just want to confirm it.”


“Cousin, wait for me. I’ll make a wish.” Yu Youyao picked up her dress and ran out of the pavilion.


Zhou Linghuai did not follow. He saw her slender figure dance like a b.u.t.terfly, light and agile, like a bright mountain light in the thick green.


Chun Xiao bought a wishing silk.


Yu Youyao held the brush for a long time. It was so long that the ink drop on the tip of the brush landed on the wishing silk. She hurriedly tried to salvage the situation and wrote down her wish. “I hope that my husband will live for a thousand years. I hope that I’ll be healthy. I hope that we’ll live together until we grow old.”


Chun Xiao took out a hundred copper coins.


Yu Youyao placed them on the wishing silk one by one. She weighed them and frowned. “Not enough!”


Chun Xiao was stunned for a moment. She remembered that three years ago, when Young Miss made a wish, she had used a hundred copper coins. At that time, she felt that it was too little, but Young Miss said, “Buddhism emphasizes fate. Everything can be stopped when it’s appropriate. All I want is peace of mind. ”


But today, it was also a hundred copper coins to make a wish. Why did Young Miss feel that it was too little?


Chun Xiao was a little puzzled. She took out another string of money from her pouch and handed it to Young Miss.


The copper coins were strung onto the wishing silk one by one. When she was done wearing the wishing silk, Yu Youyao held the slightly heavy wishing silk in her hand and realized that she had unknowingly added a thousand copper coins.


Seeing that Young Miss was looking at the wishing silk in her hand in a daze, Chun Xiao instinctively felt that she was not in a good mood. She asked carefully, “If it’s not enough, I…”


“It’s enough!” Yu Youyao suddenly interrupted her. “This will do!”


The more copper coins strung on the wishing silk abd the higher it was thrown, the more auspicious the outcome would be. Only then would it be easier to fulfill the wish.


Three years ago, she had only used 100 copper coins and wished for her cousin to be healthy. She had only asked for peace of mind.


However, now, this string of wishing silk that cost a hundred copper coins was too little and too light. She was worried that it would not be thrown high enough and end up inauspicious. She was even more worried that her wish would not be fulfilled, so no matter how much it was, she felt that it was too little.


In the end, she was still greedy.


What the h.e.l.l was wrong with her?


Yu Youyao closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she looked down at the wishing silk in her hand. She stood on her tiptoes, closed her eyes, and casually threw it into the tree.


After throwing it, she opened her eyes.


She saw a lot of the same wishing silk floating on the tree. With the branches and leaves covering it, she could no longer tell which one she had thrown up just now.


Yu Youyao regretted it a little, so she asked Chun Xiao, “Which one did I throw just now?”


Chun Xiao shook her head. “I only saw that Young Miss’s wishing silk was thrown high. There was a light in the crack of the tree, and it pierced into my eyes. For a moment, I didn’t see where the wishing silk was thrown.”


Yu Youyao was a little disappointed. She looked at the Bodhi of Wishes in a daze for a long time before saying, “Forget it. Cousin is still waiting for me. Let’s go back!”


When they returned to the pavilion, it was getting late. Yu Youyao and Zhou Linghuai returned to their room along the way.


After they greeted each other, Old Madam Yu turned to look at Yu Youyao. “Your cousin wants to stay in the room for lunch.. Go down and prepare dinner!”
