Mowenjie looked at their father and daughter. I said that the betrothal gift was two beauty retention pills and one Wuxing Leopard Skin Breaking Realm pill, and each of their families had them. It seems that your family doesn't need it. So I won't give it to you!
Tuo ba Hongwei sighed and waved his hand with a wry smile. Wenjie, it's just that we misunderstood just now. How could such a precious betrothal gift not be accepted? There's no way we can let you down with our hearts full of gratitude! It's just that we didn't realize your betrothal gift was actually medicinal pills, which we desperately need. Wenjie, no matter how many you have, feel free to give as much as you can. We will never be too much!
Tuo ba Yingying smiled happily upon hearing this. I knew that Wenjie was the best to me. I've heard about the effectiveness and price of beauty retention pills long ago. It's said that the Lady who is the wife of Assistant Military Commander Qu has them for sale. How did this relate to Wenjie?
Mowenjie smiled, also upon hearing this, as he has also brewed the beauty retention pills. However, the several sisters-in-law are responsible for sales, and I am only responsible for brewing medicinal pills. The profit is three percent of Qi Wei's share, three percent of Qu Shi's share, and I take four percent. It's a partnership among us three!
Tuo ba Yingying nodded upon hearing this, saying, "My husband is really talented. I am truly so happy. I really need to thank Ding Yan properly. Without her, I would have found it hard to even approach you!"
Mowenjie shook his head upon hearing this, "Ding Yan is also like that. She came to see me because of you. I thought she was there to break off the engagement, and we even caused a misunderstanding between the two of us!"
Tuo ba Yingying nodded, "Ding Yan was indeed for me. I will never forget this favor. If she ever needs my help, I will do everything I can to assist her!"
Mowenjie nodded upon hearing this, "Repaying kindness is the right thing to do. Those who take revenge for kindness will inevitably face retribution in the end!"
Tuo ba Hongwei looked at Mowenjie, saying, "Your cultivation technique for brewing medicinal pills has reached its peak. Can you also brew more advanced medicinal pills? For example, the kind of pill the city lord wants today!"
Mowenjie looked at Tuo ba Hongwei, "Father-in-law, regarding more advanced medicinal pills, I haven't brewed them before. Of course, I don't know if I can brew them. After today, I will go in search of more advanced medicinal herbs. Then brew more advanced medicinal pills. After all, even a skilled housewife can't cook without rice! Even if my brewing technique is very excellent, without the herbs to brew with it, how do I know if I can successfully brew them? Therefore, I want to look for more advanced medicinal herbs to improve my brewing level!"
Tuo ba Yingying, upon hearing this, looked at Mowenjie, "Husband, are you going to go on a journey of cultivation and experience? Take me with you, let's go together!"
Mowenjie shook his head at Tuo ba Yingying, "The risks of going on a journey of cultivation and experience are too great. If you come with me, there will be danger. You should stay at home and wait for me. I will be back when my journey is over. It's not like I'm going to be away for long. I heard that there are various medicinal herbs in the mountains to the south, but there are too many poisonous creatures. Generally, no one dares to go!"
Tuo ba Yingying shook her head, "My husband, you're aware of the poisonous creatures and still want to go? Isn't that extremely dangerous? I advise you not to go!"
Mowenjie looked at Tuo ba Yingying, smiled, and waved his hand. "Don't worry, I'm not afraid of poisonous creatures since I decided to go. I've been trained since childhood to be immune to all poisons. Even the most toxic creatures have to take a detour when they see me, so there's no danger for me at all!"
Tuo ba Yingying heard this and looked at Mowenjie with a face full of disbelief. This left Mowenjie in a state of confusion, like a man lost in the temple!
Mowenjie looked at Tuo ba Yingying's expression and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like this? Did I have a flower on my face?"
Tuo ba Yingying laughed lightly upon hearing this, "I don't know if you have a flower on your face, but I know you're going to have a sore waist." She then reached out and twisted at Mowenjie's waist.
Mowenjie looked at her hand, which resembled a pair of pliers, and immediately jumped up to dodge it!
Tuo ba Yingying, upon seeing this, laughed and shook her head. "Do you dare to avoid it? Then don't blame me for being harsh to you. Today, I will make sure you know how fierce this miss is!"
Mowenjie looked at Tuo ba Yingying and replied with a mischievous smile, "You think I can't handle you, huh? You're wrong if you think a tiger doesn't roar and I'm just a sick cat. If you dare to lay a hand on me again, watch me teach you what three obediences and four virtues are all about!"
Tuo ba Yingying, upon hearing this, laughed and said, "Husband, my slave dares not anymore. Please raise your hand and spare me. From now on, I will listen to your words and not anger you."
Tuo ba Hongwei watched Mowenjie and covered his mouth with a sly smile. This son-in-law is just too generous! The betrothal gift is so extravagant. Two beauty retention pills and one Wuxing Leopard Skin Breaking Realm pill. Those are priceless gifts! Two beauty retention pills are worth 20,000 spirit stones, and one Wuxing Leopard Skin Breaking Realm pill is a treasure beyond price! With such a son-in-law, the Tuo family couldn't help but rise to prominence!
Tuo ba Yingying watched her father secretly pleased and she didn't know why her father was so happy. She thought it was because of the playful scuffle between her and Mowenjie that made him happy. She gave him a fierce glare, blaming him for making her father watch their jokes.
Mowenjie looked at Tuo ba Yingying's expression, thinking that she was still shameless enough to glare at him, it was all because of her! What were you doing with your hands? Now you've been made fun of by your father, and you're throwing the blame on me. What's the logic behind this?"
Tuo ba Hongwei looked at Mowenjie and fell silent with his daughter, knowing that their father's actions had made them aware of it. This made him feel very embarrassed. He stood there, not knowing whether to leave or stay, feeling at a loss. After pondering for a while, he could only cough to get their attention and said, "Continue your conversation here. I have some business to attend to and need to go out."
Tuo ba Hongwei finished speaking and ran away as fast as a rabbit, faster than any rabbit!
Mowenjie looked at Tuo ba Hongwei, who was running away in a panic, and he couldn't help but shake his head. What's the rush? We're all family, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. Watching me and my daughter's romance must have brought back some memories from your youth!
Tuo ba Yingying, upon hearing this, took a step forward and was about to twist his arm again, saying, "You make me lose face with your shameless talk!"
Mowenjie chuckled and escaped, "Did I say anything wrong? We're the two of us here. What does he mean by not leaving? Does he not have a youth as well? Does he not know that sometimes one should avoid it?" Mowenjie said, "But if he doesn't avoid it, we have no choice."
Tuo ba Yingying, upon hearing this, glared fiercely at him and said, "You're shameless and say whatever comes to mind. Don't talk like that anymore in the future. Keep your mouth shut!"
Mowenjie shook his head upon hearing this, "What can't be said between husband and wife? I think young people should just say what comes to mind. That's what being straightforward is about, don't you understand? If you don't say what's on your mind, how will others know how you're thinking, and how can they act according to your wishes? So I believe young people should speak their minds without any reservation. If you act mature and reserved, doesn't that mean you're not a young person anymore? You might as well be called an old fossil!"
Tuo ba Yingying nodded in agreement, "I admit that what you said is very true. However, he is still my father. We should respect him at times. Firstly, it allows him to save face, and secondly, it helps to ease the awkwardness of the situation!"
Mowenjie nodded in agreement upon hearing this, "Alright, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'll go back first. Tonight, I'll directly go to the Jade Forest Fairy Manor. When the time comes, you two should go there as well!"
Tuo ba Yingying laughed lightly upon hearing this, "Do you really want my brother to mobilize the army to greet us? If you actually have my brother send troops to meet us, then we'll just stay home and wait for you to come and pick us up!"
Mowenjie smiled mischievously upon hearing this, "I can ask my brother to send troops to pick you up, if you're willing. I'll talk to my brother about it!"
Tuo ba Yingying laughed lightly upon hearing this, "I was just teasing you. Do you really think I'm that dumb? That would cause trouble for my brother. Let's not bother him with such a minor engagement matter!"
Mowenjie nodded in approval, "You can think about your brother's situation too, that's really great!"
Tuo ba Yingying glared at him fiercely upon hearing this, "Is that how you see me? Am I that untrustworthy and irresponsible? Do I not care about others? Why can't I think about the big picture?"
Mowenjie looked at Tuo ba Yingying and said, "Don't you know what kind of person you are? Do I need to tell you? You must behave yourself in the future, or I won't speak well of you!"
Tuo ba Yingying looked at Mowenjie upon hearing this, "Do you really think I'm that foolish to listen to you? We both have our own autonomy. Don't keep thinking about the old ways, like male dominance over females. We're young people now; the past has nothing to do with us. Young people shouldn't be thinking about the feudal systems of the past anymore!"
Mowenjie looked at Tuo ba Yingying and said, "What do you mean by calling it a feudal system? Respecting elders, loving children, and living in harmony - is that what you call a feudal system? No matter when, this is our traditional virtue. Since the beginning of the world, it has always been like this. And even today, it is the same everywhere. What's the difference between heaven and earth? It's just that people in heaven can fly and those on earth have to run to catch up. There isn't much difference otherwise. As long as everyone understands this, what matters is whether the heavens are up there or down here. They are all pretty much the same!"
Tuo ba Yingying shook her head upon hearing this, "Hurry up and go back. I'm afraid I can't control myself again and have to twist you. Please leave as soon as possible. Can't you just be a good person?"
Mowenjie looked at Tuo ba Yingying and said, "You're going to lay hands on me again, are you? You seem to enjoy using force. Will there be domestic violence in our future?"
Tuo ba Yingying nodded in agreement, "That's fine. When certain people really can't control themselves, I think it's necessary to use a bit of domestic violence. It can help cure various forms of self-conceitedness during critical moments! Don't you think it's necessary?"
Mowenjie looked at Tuo ba Yingying and shook his head, "Do you know what you're doing? You're trying to kill your husband, right? In the future, please behave yourself. If not, I will apply your family law to teach you a lesson. Let you know that the Mow family still has its own laws. If you don't agree, then I'm sorry. Directly apply the family law without any hesitation. I don't believe I can't treat you. Dare to oppose your husband in this way? You don't know how to live or how high or low heaven and earth are! I'll go back first. Think about it more when you have nothing else to do!"
