Chapter 56 Jealous
“A man’s future, can you see it by a sign?”
Feng Zhiyao stopped eating the candied fruits and raised her eyebrows.
“Believe it or not, it’s good to take a look.”
Xuanyuan Haoyu said.
“If fate is foreordained, if it’s good, I’ll feel good. If it’s bad, I’ll be worry.”
“If fate can be changed, it will change at any time. Whatever I want, I will strive for it myself, so why should I look at it!”
This was the truth. Her fate was a variable, or else how would she have encountered such a strange thing?
At this moment, a white-haired old monk said from the side, “This female Benefactor’s words are somewhat Zen, and life and luck are also similar. If you believe, there will be, if you don’t, then there won’t be. That’s true!”
Feng Zhiyao giggled as she dragged Xuanyuan Haoyu up to the mountain, “I won’t disturb you, master. Let’s go up to the summit and take a look.”
However, she did not want to discuss Zen with the old monk. She knew that she was not that type of person, so it was better for her to leave quickly.
Step by step, he climbed to the top of the mountain. He could vaguely see the cliffs and various kinds of strange stones. The steep peaks were high in the sky, and the white clouds were floating at its feet, the sun was going to sink into the valley.
She stood on the summit of the mountain and looked at the endless beautiful scenery. Her heart couldn’t help but beat wildly, wanting to sing a poem.
“When shall I reach the top and hold All mountains in a single glance?”
“Good poem!”
“Although the words are simple, the last sentence has the effect!”
Xuanyuan Haoyu commented in a good mood.
Feng Zhiyao was secretly amused. The poem she recited was the essence, how could it not be good?
However, when Xuanyuan Haoyu looked at Feng Zhiyao, his interest was increased a little bit, and Feng Zhiyao didn’t dare to say more on the way back.
….
Coming down from the mountain, it was already night.
Due to the good result of killing locusts during the day, the people were very festive at night. Red lanterns were hung under the eaves of the houses in Su Yang City, causing the noisy street market to be shrouded in red, giving off a dazzling beauty.
After a month, locust killing method that Feng Zhiyao had provided finally made her gain a lot of money.
She also bought a piece of land and built a huge chicken farm in Su Yang. She was planning to go back to Xian Yang and open a unique soup shop called Feng’s Soup.
At this moment, Su Yang City, in a room on the second floor of the Feng Yue Restaurant.
“Mincan, you’ve done well.”
Xuanyuan Haoyu smiled as he praised Li Mincan.
“I was the one who came up with that idea!”
Feng Zhiyao said unhappily. She was the one who came up with the idea of getting the chickens and ducks to eat the locusts.
“Right, you all have contributed. Tonight, Governor Jiang Haican of the Two Rivers invited me to admire the moon at Mi Xiang Lake. You all can go as well!”
“It’s said that the silver fish in Mi Xiang Lake tastes pretty good. Zhiyao, I’m sure you like it.”
Xuanyuan Haoyu had actually eliminated the word ‘Lady’ from ‘Lady Zhiyao’. It made Feng Zhiyao feel a bit of fear and trepidation.
Li Mincan was sensitive enough to hear this subtle difference. His handsome eyebrows were furrowed as he glared at Feng Zhiyao.
Feng Zhiyao could only smile bitterly.
Did Li Mincan think that she was trying to seduce Xuanyuan Haoyu?
This was truly wrongly accusing her!
“That’s a brothel. It’s not suitable for her to go there!”
Li Mincan tactfully disagreed.
“Just dress up as a man, I presume Zhiyao also really wants to go, right?”
Xuanyuan Haoyu glanced at Feng Zhiyao and jokingly said.
“I just haven’t been to a brothel before, am I curious?”
“Ha, ha!”
She laughed dryly.
Li Mincan wanted to say something else, but thinking about he could follow her, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to protect her!
Therefore, he tacitly agreed to let Feng Zhiyao go with him.
That night, on the Mi Xiang lake, many cruise boats were brightly lit. The zither music and the flute drums were played. There were beauties, pa.s.sionately singing and laughing, causing people to be fascinated by them.
Jiang Haican and other officials also wore civilian clothes and appeared on a beautiful and peerless cruise boat.
Xuanyuan Haoyu indicated that there was no need for them to pay their respects, only smiling faintly as he sat down.
Then, Jiang Haican’s eyes shone brightly as he stared at a middle-aged woman, said, “Mother Feng, quickly call Miss Bai over and play a song for the distinguished guests.”
The woman called Mother Feng hurriedly responded with a smile and sent a green-clothed little girl to call Miss Bai.
Feng Zhiyao sat down together with Xuanyuan Haoyu and Li Mincan, but now that she had been ordered to dress up as a man by Xuanyuan Haoyu, she only felt that the weather was so hot that her entire body was warm. She couldn’t help but glare at Xuanyuan Haoyu.
He made her pretend to be a man. Although she also took a folding fan and looked pretty, it was enough to make her want to tear apart Xuanyuan Haoyu’s handsome face.
“Zhi…”
“Young master Feng, what’s wrong with you?”
Xuanyuan Haoyu gave her a meaningful look.
“Nothing, I’m just thirsty!”
With that, Feng Zhiyao elegantly and tenaciously drank a cup of light colored tea and started tasting it. Her eyes fell on the beautiful woman who had just come in.
The person who came in looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. Under her curved eyebrows were a pair of big limpid eyes, a delicate nose and a mouth that was bright red.
Her eyes carried a trace of coquettish charm. Looking at the extraordinarily handsome Xuanyuan Haoyu, her eyes were somewhat infatuated with him. Immediately after, she smiled sweetly, and had a special charm to it, as if she was about to blossom like a peony flower.
“Miss Bai, they are my invited guests. Please play a song for us.”
Jiang Haican’s eyes were filled with shrewdness and scheming. He thought that this girl’s zither skills were rather high. Perhaps, she could let King of Jing build a good relationship with her. If the crown princes failed, he could choose a better boss.
Therefore, Bai Fu bent over and smiled, “I, Bai Fu, will embarra.s.sed myself!”
“En, hurry up and play!”
Feng Zhiyao was still in a hurry to go back to bed.
Only now did Bai Fu notice Feng Zhiyao, such a handsome young master!
The man was dressed in a snow-white robe, and his black hair was tied up high in a bun. He had a kind of transcendent beauty, which made him look delicate, but when his clothes fluttered in the wind, he was as elegant as a fairy.
“Why aren’t you playing the zither?”
Xuanyuan Haoyu saw that Bai Fu had been looking at Feng Zhiyao for a little too long, so he, who had always been patient, actually became angry and urged her!
Li Mincan secretly laughed. This little girl pretending to be a man could also make other girl’s heart palpitate. She really was a fox!
