Chapter 21 As your sister-in-law, I won’t bother with you!
"If we don't like it, we can take it home and enjoy it ourselves."
Xie Yuantang smiled and patted the small floral shoulder bag on her waist: "Don't worry, my husband. I promise that my father and uncle will be happy to see the gift you gave them."
"But……"
Situ Yan was a little hesitant. He had never given a gift himself. Except for Yan Mo and Yan Feng, no one had ever smiled at him, let alone liked the things he gave.
Seeing Situ Yan's nervousness, Xie Yuantang thought for a moment and used Situ Ye as an example: "Gifts are about the thought behind them. The value of the gift is secondary. As for whether the recipient likes it or not, that is someone else's business. Just like when the fourth brother gave us the black horse, he didn't even ask us if we liked it."
Situ Yan listened to her carefully, his peach blossom eyes lit up and he said, "Madam, what you mean is that no matter whether my father and uncle are happy or not, I have to send it because it represents myself, right?"
Xie Yuantang smiled and nodded, poking his pretty face with her finger: "My husband is so smart!"
Situ Yan's face flushed slightly at the praise, and she smiled innocently. The nervousness in her heart gradually dissipated, and she turned to discuss with Xie Yuantang where they would go to play on Xiaoguai later.
Seeing that he no longer had his previous inferiority complex, Xie Yuantang breathed a sigh of relief. She could help him create more opportunities, teach him to grow slowly, and make up for his intellectual deficiencies, but the only thing she could not replace was his attitude.
A person may not be capable enough, but must never be inferior or cowardly. Otherwise, no matter how much she does, the royal family will not really take them seriously.
Xie Yuantang and his team arrived around noon.
The royal hunting ground was heavily guarded, and everyone was a little surprised when they saw Situ Yan. They didn't expect that the fifth prince would come.
Xie Yuantang pretended not to see their looks and just asked Hongqiu to take the luggage over while she and Situ Yan went to see Situ Qing first.
But on the way there, he didn't see the emperor, but instead met an acquaintance - Situ Ye.
"Hey! Isn't this my fifth brother and his wife?"
Situ Ye was talking to the others. When he saw Xie Yuantang and Situ Yan coming over, he immediately said in a sarcastic voice, "Fifth brother is really here. Could it be that he couldn't wait and came to ask the other brothers and sisters for the money?"
As he spoke, he patted the shoulder of the young man in brocade clothes beside him and said to Situ Ye: "Hey, what a coincidence, Lao Liu, you haven't paid your share of money yet, right?"
"Be careful, our fifth brother's wife has a very sharp tongue!"
Situ Xu raised his eyebrows, glanced at Situ Yan with contempt, and then glanced at Xie Yuantang beside him, and said sarcastically: "Just this bean sprout? Fourth brother, when did you change to a vegetarian diet?"
"It's worth sacrificing your horse for something that can be crushed to death with one foot, ha~"
Xie Yuantang looked at the Sixth Prince and had to admit that the Situ family had good genes. The sixteen-year-old Situ Xu looked quite decent, but there was a hint of sinisterness lingering between his eyebrows, and the slightly drooping corners of his eyes made him look even more eccentric.
At first glance, it's clear that he's in his rebellious period, causing trouble everywhere.
"Tsk."
Xie Yuantang curled his lips and muttered, "Another thorny guy with a second-year syndrome!"
She didn't want to deal with this kind of person at all, so she pulled Situ Yan and tried to take a detour.
Seeing that the two of them completely ignored him, Situ Xu was stunned for a moment, then he became even angrier after realizing what was happening, and yelled, "Hey! Can't you hear me talking to you? Who allowed you to leave?"
Xie Yuantang rolled his eyes and looked back at him: "I can't hear you. I'm just a bean sprout. Bean sprouts don't have ears."
Situ Xu: “…”
"Pfft hahaha!"
Seeing his sixth brother, who was even more lawless than himself, being humiliated, Situ Ye laughed out loud without hesitation: "I told you she has a powerful tongue!"
Situ Xu looked gloomy and glared at Situ Yan: "Fifth brother, she didn't hear it, are you deaf too?"
"But……"
Situ Yan frowned, blinked his unique peach blossom eyes, and looked at him puzzledly: "Weren't you talking to Fourth Brother just now?"
Situ Xu: “…”
After Situ Yan finished speaking, he probably noticed that Situ Xu looked unhappy, so he thought for a moment and added, "Don't worry, Sixth Brother. I don't want your share of the money."
"I'm worried?"
Situ Xu's voice was broken, and he strode over: "Why should I worry? What do you mean? Are you saying that I can't afford the money?"
Situ Yan was a little hesitant. He still didn't dare to go against his brothers.
Xie Yuantang was not afraid at all, and said directly: "Isn't it? You don't want to give us money, and you say that the black horse is too expensive, doesn't that mean you don't have money?"
"Don't worry, my husband and I are not stingy people. You are my brother after all, and as my sister-in-law, I won't hold it against you!"
She waved her hand generously.
But her height was only up to Situ Xu's waist, and her little arms waving around seemed more like a mockery!
Situ Xu took a deep breath, feeling like his chest was about to explode. He lowered his head and stared at Xie Yuantang, gritting his teeth and saying, "What did you say?"
Is he your younger brother?
Is she sister-in-law?
Situ Xu clenched his fists until they made a crackling sound, and said with a fierce smile: "Xie Yuantang, you are really brave."
No one has ever dared to step on his head like this!
Xie Yuantang tilted his head, and the bells on his buns swayed gently, making a crisp sound. As if he could not hear Situ Xu's threat, he smiled brightly and said, "Sixth brother, don't be sad. You are still young and can make money in the future. If it doesn't work out, wait until you get married, and your fifth brother and I will help you."
Aid...
Situ Xu was completely irritated by this word and yelled, "Who wants help? Do you think I'm a beggar?"
"What are you yelling at?"
Situ Yan frowned, pulled Xie Yuantang behind him, and looked at him unhappily: "Don't yell at my wife, she is your sister-in-law!"
Situ Xu: “…” A stab to the heart!
A mouthful of blood rushed up to his throat, but he swallowed it down forcefully!
"Situ Yan, you'd better run away before I hit you." Situ Xu glared at him hatefully.
Situ Yan was even more confused: "I was about to leave, but you stopped me."
Situ Xu: “…”
Situ Yan looked at his face which was beginning to turn blue, and kindly advised, "We are leaving now, don't be angry, my wife said that being angry is harmful to the body, and in serious cases it can even kill people."
"You curse me to death!"
You said he was poor, you said he was your younger brother, and now you are cursing him!
Situ Xu felt that he had never been so angry!
"You two stop!"
Situ Xu strode up to the two of them, his hands shaking.
Trembling...
Take out money.
"Who said I don't have money? I have plenty of money!"
"Isn't it just share money? Here, here, here, all for you!"
Situ Xu first took out the banknotes and then the jade pendant. He was so angry that he threw them all into Xie Yuantang's arms.
"Look carefully! This jade pendant was produced from the spring under the Tianshan Jade Spring. There is only one such piece in the world. It is more expensive than a black horse!"
