If I refuse, will I be able to leave this courtyard today? asked Wei Ruo. Obviously not! The place is filled with my people, and my brother is on guard. You wont be able to leave without my approval.

Xie Ying probably forgot how her brother was suppressed by Xiumei just a while ago.

Ah, Wei Ruo sighed mysteriously, If thats the way things are destined to be, one shouldnt fight against the will of heaven. So, alright, I agree.

You stinky Ruoruo, just agree if you want to agree. Why make it seem like youre reluctant about it? Xie Ying punched Wei Ruos shoulder playfully, acting tough have but not actually putting much strength into it, hardly any more than if she were tickling her.

How can you blame me? Didnt you set up this scenario, making it seem like you were forcing an innocent girl into prostitution? I have to play along, dont I? Wei Ruo said with a full-faced smile.

Just you wait, you stinky Ruoruo. You throw around such wild accusations. Let me show you what it truly means to force an innocent girl into prostitution! Xie Ying extended her claws, pretending to tickle Wei Ruo.

Seeing the situation, Wei Ruo immediately ran. She was most afraid of being tickled. Her body was hyper ticklish!

Xie Ying chased after her, shouting, Stinky Ruoruo, dont you run away! Stand still and let me teach you a good lesson!

Only a fool wouldnt run!

The courtyard was big enough for them to run a circle, past the fake mountains, pavilions, small bridges, and finally, they stopped in front of a flower bed, panting heavily.

In the end, they sat back to back on the grass, laughing hysterically.

After laughing, they lay on the grass and started discussing the herb field and buying food grains.

Wei Ruo had ideas, Xie Ying wanted to help, not for Wei Ruo, but for the people of Xingshan County.

They stayed until midday, and when Xie Ying sent Wei Ruo off and returned to the courtyard, she saw Xie Jue.

Watching Wei Ruos carriage gradually disappearing down the mountainside, Xie Jue turned to Xie Ying and said with a smile, Your classmate is quite adorable.

Of course, she has to be extraordinary to be my classmate. Xie Ying replied proudly.

Right, right. Otherwise, my sister wouldnt bother with her. Xie Jue said with a smile. He knew his sister very well. Raised as the darling of their parents and grandfather, she did whatever she pleased.

She is not just my classmate now, but also my best friend. You must be polite to her from now on. Xie Ying added. ALL new hapters n nv()lbin(.)com

When have I ever been impolite to her? As long as her grumpy maid does not act impolite towards me. Xie Jue said.

You have the nerve to say that. Our grandfather trained you well in martial arts, but why couldnt you beat even Ruoruos maid? Xie Ying looked at him contemptuously.

I find it strange too, how can a maid have such good skills? Someday you must ask your good friend where her maid learned her martial arts skills from. Xie Jue said.

No problem. Just remember next time you go to the capital city, bring me some tasty snacks and interesting things. I want to send them to Ruoruo. She has given me gifts and treats so many times. I need to find an opportunity to return the favor, and things from the capital city would be perfect. Xie Ying said.

Sure, whatever you wish for, sister. Xie Jue agreed promptly. In fact, every time he came back from Capital City, he brought his sister lots of snacks, even without her asking.

By the way, Brother, what is your purpose for coming back this time? Shouldnt you be busy studying? Why have you come to Xingshan County? Xie Ying asked.

I cant tell you about this yet, in case you let it slip. Anyway, Ive come here this time on serious business. Xie Jues expression turned serious while saying this.

Actually, he had received news of a big battle between Xingshan County and the Japanese Pirates on the East Coast. Worried about his mother and sister, he came to check on them.

If Xingshan County were under threat, he would be able to evacuate his family in time.

Now, without any definite news, he definitely could not make a rash move. His family, the Xie Family, was a respectable family in Xingshan. If they set a bad example by fleeing prematurely, they would be held accountable by the royal court.

Knowing it was a serious matter, Xie Ying didnt ask any more questions. Just be careful, and dont make Mother and I worry about you.

Rest assured.

Lets go. I have a gift for you. Xie Ying excitedly pulled Xie Jue towards the carriage.

She then brought out the two wooden boxes she bought from Four Treasure House.

She was barely able to see over top of the two stacked boxes.

Seeing this, Xie Jue quickly took the boxes from her.

What did you buy? Xie Jue asked.

Why dont you open it and find out? Im not entirely sure whats inside. Xie Ying said.

Youre not sure? Didnt you buy it? Xie Jue asked.

You dont understand, do you? This thing is called a mystery box! Xie Ying said proudly, explaining the origin of the two boxes to Xie Jue.

After hearing Xie Yings explanation, Xie Jue also became curious. Ive heard of the Tibetan layman. He was highly regarded by the emperor when he was in the Hanlin Academy. But after his retirement, he became a hermit. How did he become friends with a stationery salesman?

Never mind that now, just open the boxes and see whats inside. Xie Ying urged.

Xie Jue, fearing his sisters impending boxing assault, immediately opened both boxes.

Inside were various types of stationery: brushes, ink sticks, paper, inkstones.

The brushes and inkstones were nothing special, and could be found anywhere. The materials Xie Jue used were even better than these.

Only the paper was special. Xie Jue couldnt help but pick it up and study it closely.

This paper is smooth, white, and durable. Its very special. He touched the paper with his fingertips and commented on it.

How is it? Have you seen it before? Not in the capital city, right? Xie Ying asked with a proud smile.

Indeed, I havent. Xie Jue had to admit.

Look, Ive got an extra hundred sheets of this paper because I knew youd like it. But its odd, the store wouldnt let me buy more. Each person can only buy fifty sheets a day. Half of these hundred sheets were actually given to me by Ruoruo, said Xie Ying.

Hahaha, thank you, Yinger. My little sister always knows what I like best, laughed Xie Jue.

Its a shame that we didnt manage to get any of Tibetan laymans brushwork. Xie Ying looked at the things in the two boxes, which were all ordinary stationery.

I have my sisters thoughts and feelings. What use is a Tibetan laymans brushwork piece? As long as its a gift from my sister, I absolutely love it. Xie Jue said.

The next morning, Wei Ruo took the box she had bought from Four Treasure House to Yingzhu Court.

Seeing Wei Ruo carrying something heavy, Xiaobei immediately came to help.

Wei Ruo passed the box to Xiaobei: This is for your young master.

Miss, youre so thoughtful. Xiaobei cheerily carried the box into the Octagonal Pavilion.

Wei Jinyi had already heard the conversation between Wei Ruo and Xiaobei, and glanced briefly at the box Wei Ruo had brought.. Is it the mystery box from the Four Treasure House?
