Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The next day, the Hu family’s daughter, Hu Yutong, came to Hele Village again to wait for Zhao Yan.
However, before she could see Zhao Yan, she b.u.mped into Zhao Lijun.
Yesterday, after meeting Li Xiaoran, Zhao Lijun thought about many things.
It wasn’t easy for him to adjust his emotions, but he encountered the Hu family’s girl again.
When Hu Yutong saw Zhao Lijun, she felt a little guilty, so she wanted to avoid him.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Lijun stopped her before Hu Yutong could.
Zhao Lijun stared at the woman in front of him and asked, “Hu Yutong, aren’t you going to greet me? I think you owe me an explanation and an apology!”
Hu Yutong originally didn’t want to get involved with Zhao Lijun anymore, but now that they had met, there was no way to avoid it. She could only face him.
To be honest, in terms of looks, Zhao Lijun was quite handsome.
The men of the Zhao family all had thick eyebrows and big eyes. They were handsome and pleasing to the eye.
However, Zhao Lijun and the others had offended his eldest aunt.
Because of his aunt’s att.i.tude, Zhao Lijun went straight to the shop to condemn his cousin, Li Xiaoqing.
To be honest, Hu Yutong looked down on such a man.
Hu Yutong sneered at the person in front of her and said, “Zhao Lijun, shouldn’t I be asking you this? Tell me, why did you offend your aunt? Do you know who your aunt is?”
“I want to marry you too, but you have to work hard! If you can make your eldest aunt reconcile with your family and let your eldest aunt propose marriage, this marriage can still be negotiated. Otherwise, don’t stand in my way!”
When Zhao Lijun heard this, he remembered that his cousin-in-law was actually the Seventh Prince.
At this moment, Zhao Lijun laughed.
“How ridiculous. When I saw you a few days ago, I felt that you were the love of my life. Even when my aunt objected to this marriage, I still went against her. But in the end, what I got in exchange was this! Leave! From now on, I’ll pretend that I never knew you!”
When Hu Yutong heard this, she snorted and prepared to leave. “Wait!” At this moment, Zhao Yan appeared and walked towards the two of them.
When Hu Yutong saw Zhao Yan come out, her eyes lit up and her disdainful expression immediately changed to one of shyness.
“You’re Zhao Yan, right? I have something to discuss with you!”
As Zhao Lijun stared at Hu Yutong, he suddenly felt disgusted.
How blind must he have been before to fall in love with such a double-faced girl?
“You’re that girl, right? I came out to tell you to give up on marrying into the Zhao family! My brother won’t marry you, nor will I! Also, do you really think no one can see through the schemes of the Hu family? Do you really think my cousin-in-law can’t see through your tricks? If you know what’s good for you, give up on your plans as soon as possible. Otherwise, you’ll have to bear the consequences!”
When Hu Yutong heard Zhao Yan’s words, her expression changed. In the end, she left with a dark expression.
After Hu Yutong left, Zhao Yan looked at Zhao Lijun.
“Brother, we haven’t gone up the mountain to hunt in a while! I think there’s a lot of prey on the mountain here, so let’s go up the mountain today and compete. Then, we’ll rest in the mountain for the night and come back tomorrow!”
Zhao Lijun hesitated when he received Zhao Yan’s invitation.
“But my parents don’t know where I went, so I’d better go back and talk to them first! Besides, we have to be careful when we go up the mountain. Let’s go back and get some tools first!”
When Zhao Yan heard Zhao Lijun’s words , he immediately smiled and reached out to put his hand on his shoulder.
“Then let’s go! Speaking of which, it’s been a long time since we went hunting!”
Zhao Lijun smiled at Zhao Yan.
The grudge that had arisen because of Hu Yutong disappeared.
Between brothers, these sorts of conflicts were trifling.
They let bygones be bygones.
After they got back, they took their weapons and told their families. Then, the brothers went up the mountain together.
On the way, they met Li Xiaoran walking around with a few dogs, so the brothers went forward to greet her.
Seeing that Zhao Lijun had already recovered and was no longer as dispirited as before, Li Xiaoran was relieved.
Li Xiaoran asked with a smile, “Where are you going?”
Zhao Yan said as he waved the tools in his hand, “Brother and I are going up the mountain to hunt. We plan to stay on the mountain for the night! Look, we brought all our tools!”
As Li Xiaoran looked at the two of them, she thought of something.
“If you want to go up the mountain to hunt, find a stone house on the mountain first! It was built by your cousin-in-law when he was hunting. If you encounter any danger, you can go there to hide!”
Zhao Yan and Zhao Lijun nodded and bade farewell to Li Xiaoran before leaving.
Li Xiaoran didn’t think too much about it and continued to bring Big Yellow around.
After Zhao Yan and Zhao Lijun went up the mountain, they chose a direction to go in.
In the end, they were lucky to have hunted a lot of wild animals as soon as they went up the mountain.
Fortunately, when they were hunting, they actually found the stone house that Li Xiaoran had mentioned previously.
They brought the prey to the stream in the mountains to be cleansed first.
Then, the two of them arrived at the side of the stone house.
Without using the stove inside, the two brothers lit a fire outside the stone house and roasted the processed pheasants and hares.
It was already summer. In the evening, a cold wind blew through the forest, driving away some of their frustration.
Hearing the crackling sound from the fire, Zhao Yan suddenly mentioned the Hu family.
“Brother, that Hu family’s girl isn’t a good match for you. They’re blind and only know how to scheme for benefits. She’s not worth your time.” Zhao Lijun fell silent when he heard Zhao Yan’s words.
Zhao Yan looked at Zhao Lijun and said, ‘We’ve been brothers for so many years. Are we going to fall out like this because of that woman? Do you still remember what we agreed on together back then? In this generation, we brothers must help each other. Once anyone falls behind, the others have to help! ”
When Zhao Lijun heard this, he recalled his happy days in Eagle Village and suddenly said,
“If only we hadn’t moved out of Eagle Village back then!”
Zhao Yan frowned when he heard this.
“Brother, do you think you should say something like that? You know better than me what kind of life we would have had if we continued living in Eagle Village. Didn’t you want to come out and adventure back then? Why? You want to go back after just a little setback? Look at you now.. You don’t seem like the brother I know at all!”
