BXBX NOVEL Chapter 96 - 96: Treating dregs as treasures (Part 1)
Upon hearing this, Zhao churan’s expression turned unhappy. “Didn’t I say that I’m not getting married?”
It turned out that Imperial physician Liu’s eldest son had taken a fancy to Zhao churan and had conveyed his feelings to her through Zhao Zishan.
However, Zhao churan rejected him.
That was because Imperial physician Liu’s eldest son was already over 50 years old and could already be her father!
Furthermore, she was only a concubine in the past!
And it was the eighteenth concubine!
How could Zhao churan be willing to do so?
Zhao Zishan put down his chopsticks and lectured, ” Imperial physician Liu’s eldest son is already a rank six official. If you follow him, you will be able to live a peaceful life. Don’t you understand this simple logic? ‘
Zhao churan retorted, ” yes, yes, yes. You are the most reasonable person. So, in order to please Imperial physician Liu, you pushed your younger sister into the fire pit. Is that right? ‘
How could Zhao Zishan not know what kind of person Imperial physician Liu was?
However, in order to please Imperial physician Liu, she had repeatedly forced Zhao churan to marry him and become his concubine.
“Impudent! How can you speak to your eldest brother like that?” Zhao Zishan slammed the table and said in a threatening tone, ‘”‘The most important thing for a girl is her upbringing. If you don’t even know how to respect your elder brother, how are you going to get married?”
“You have to be worthy of my respect first!” Zhao churan snorted.
He had sacrificed his sister for her, yet he still wanted her to respect him?
“Churan, you’ve gone too far!” Zhao Tian, who had not spoken since the beginning, said solemnly, ‘”‘Zishan is your eldest brother, you can’t be so rude.”
Zhao churan’s eyes reddened. but he forced me to marry a rotten old man. Is that right? ” she asked.
it’s not up to me to comment on my elder brother’s decision, ” Zhao Tian criticized seriously. even if it’s wrong, I shouldn’t object to it, let alone talk back to him!
Upon hearing this, Zhao churan couldn’t hold back the grievances in her heart. She covered her mouth and nose, cried, and ran away.
In fact, this was not the first time she had suffered such grievances.
They were both of the Zhao family’s bloodline, but his father had always been biased towards Zhao Zishan, and had constantly instilled in him the teachings of the eldest brother being the eldest.
She had to accommodate her elder brother in everything.
She didn’t have any status in the Zhao family, and living here was extremely oppressive.
His mother was the only one who understood him.
Hence, in order to prevent Zhao churan from being defiled by Imperial physician Liu’s eldest son, he tried his best to facilitate the marriage between Zhao churan and Xia Qilin.
In her heart, she thought that the northern Xia Manor was still her maiden family.
If Zhao churan were to marry over, it would be better than suffering in the imperial capital.
However, after many twists and turns, he still did not get what he wanted.
Zhao Zishan furrowed his brows as he watched Zhao churan leave. He unhappily said, “”You’re becoming more and more unruly! You even dare to talk back to me! You must be strictly disciplined in the future!” After that, he continued to eat as if nothing had happened.
Xia qingchen sighed in silence.
Although he felt injustice for Zhao churan in his heart, this was after all a matter of the Zhao clan.
As an outsider, he had no right to interrupt.
“Uncle, aunt, you guys eat. I’ll go and see my cousin.” Xia qingchen also didn’t have the mood to continue eating.
Uncle nodded his head lightly, while aunt said earnestly, “”Qingchen, console her properly.”
Only my aunt cares about churan!
Xia qingchen sighed in his heart and went to catch up with Zhao churan. After he left.
Zhao tiancai finally furrowed his brows.”How long does he plan to stay?”
Xia Jie shook her head. he didn’t say anything. My big brother only said that qingchen came to the imperial capital to handle some matters. He will probably leave after he is done.
Her heart sank, knowing that her husband didn’t like Xia qingchen.
If not, she wouldn’t have intentionally given Xia qingchen the cold shoulder during the meal earlier.
it’s not that I want to criticize you, but it’s already been so many years. What kind of relationship do you still have with those country bumpkins from lone Cloud City? ” Zhao Tian frowned and lectured him. it’s all good now. You gave them some face, and they immediately climbed up the mountain to curry favor with us!
Zhao Tian threw the thumb ring on the table and said in disgust, “”You want to curry favor with our Zhao family with a piece of broken Jade? you must be dreaming!”
So it turned out that Zhao Tian had thought that Xia qingchen had come here to curry favor with their Zhao Manor.
no! Xia Jie was angry. I can’t say for sure, but big brother is definitely not that kind of person!
For so many years, Xia Yuan had led such a bitter life in lone Cloud City, but he had never begged her for anything.
Now that his father’s position was elevated because of his son, and his family was gradually thriving, why would he come over to curry favor with him?
If he wanted to curry favor, he had done so long ago.
He definitely wouldn’t have waited until now.
“What do you know? you can’t tell what a person’s heart is! We haven’t seen each other for more than ten years, how do you know that your big brother hasn’t changed?” Zhao Tian retorted.
Zhao Zishan nodded his head in agreement, his expression serious.
“Mother, although the Zhao family is a famous official family, we are currently in the most important period of promotion. If we are dragged down, we will be greatly affected.”
so, it’s fine for that Xia qingchen to stay in our Zhao residence for a while, ‘ Zhao Zishan said. but if he wants to curry favor with us, we can only ask him to leave.
The father and son’s words made Xia Jie angry and speechless.
forget it. I’ll say it myself. It’s best to explain everything. Zhao Zishan put down his chopsticks and slowly went to look for Xia qingchen for a heart-to-heart talk.
In the central courtyard.
In the courtyard.
Zhao churan sat by the well and looked at the reflection of the full moon in the well, silently sobbing.
Da—
Suddenly, a stone fell into the well, causing ripples.
The full moon’s reflection immediately shattered.
life is like the moon in the well. It can’t resist the merciless crush of time. It will eventually break and become nothing. Xia qingchen’s voice rang out from behind.
Zhao churan lowered her head and asked, “”What do you mean?”
“It means that in a person’s life, too many things are illusory! For example, power, status, wealth, they are all the side branches of life. Only martial arts is the true meaning of immortality.”
Zhao churan seemed to have understood something. She raised her head and looked into Xia qingchen’s eyes.
“As long as your martial arts are strong, power, status, and wealth will be at your fingertips! In fact, if one’s martial arts can break through the void and become a God in the heavens, they will be immortal.” it’s putting the cart before the horse if you’re obsessed with the power, status, and wealth in front of you and neglect your martial arts.
Zhao churan’s eyes lit up.
Her current status was low, wasn’t it precisely because her martial arts were inferior to others?
If she was a major constellation stage cultivator and was on the same level as her father, would her brother still dare to ask her to sacrifice herself so naturally?
Her father still dared to side with her brother?
“You’ve already broken through to the first fold of the middle constellation level, right?” Xia qingchen asked.
Zhao churan nodded her chin. it’s just that I’m too slow-witted to cultivate the martial skill that cousin gave me. I haven’t made any progress with it yet.
“I’ll give you some pointers on martial arts some other day.” Xia qingchen took out a Jade-like leaf and stuffed it into her palm. “Before that, take this leaf and try to break through to the second fold-level of the middle constellation stage.”
Zhao churan opened her palm and exclaimed in shock, “”Could this be the legendary yunluo sacred leaf?”
She had heard Zhao Zishan say it before.
Once, the head Imperial physician cured the Empress’s illness. The Emperor was happy and rewarded the head Imperial physician with a yunluo sacred leaf.
The head Imperial physician’s cultivation was already high, and the yunluo sacred leaf was useless.
Therefore, he made a pot of tea with this leaf and gave a cup to every Imperial physician in the Imperial Academy of Medicine.
As an assistant, Zhao Zishan did not have the chance to get a share. He was only fortunate enough to taste the residue in the pot. He had been talking about this for two years.
