Chapter 85 Cultivating feelings starts with giving gifts
More than half a month has come and gone, and the two brothers have not found a chance to have a good talk.
Huan Yu's impression of King Rong still remained on the day when His Majesty was in danger.
That day, His Majesty cast lots with King Rong, and both he and Aji were drawn by King Rong.
King Rong treated them very kindly and even asked about their marriage.
At that time, he said that the elders had already started making plans, but they had not yet found a suitable candidate. King Rong immediately showed a meaningful smile.
It was obvious that King Rong wanted to choose one of their brothers as his son-in-law.
Aji winked at that time and clearly understood King Rong's intentions, but he must have thought that the person King Rong was interested in was him.
But judging from what he just said, could it be that King Rong did something to him during the time he left the palace?
As for Hua Qinghan's frail scholar father Hua Hou, Huan Yu didn't have much contact with him and could not imagine how capable he was.
Huan Ji sat down next to him: "Brother, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have offended Wei Yuan and Hua Qinghan.
If I don't mess with them, their father won't notice me.
Now that I have been targeted by these two distinguished men, who would dare to ask me to be their son-in-law?"
His experience sounded miserable, as if he was a civilian girl being fought over by several bullies.
But Huan Yu clearly heard a trace of embarrassment in his tone.
He crooked his younger brother with his elbow: "You brat, have you forgotten what I said to you? Be careful that grandpa gives you a military stick!"
Huan Ji took a breath: "Brother, you can't be gentler... How dare I forget what you said? I've never even met Prince Rong's daughter, how can I possibly provoke her?"
Huan Yu smiled and said: "You have never seen Prince Rong's daughter, but what about Hua Hou's daughter?"
"I didn't provoke her, it was her..."
Huan Ji suddenly had an idea in his mind: "So you saw me quarreling with her!"
Huan Yu nodded, indicating that he had indeed seen it.
Huan Ji argued loudly: "Don't think about it, I had a fight with Hua Xiaohan, but it wasn't all because of you!"
Huan Yu was secretly amused.
As the saying goes, the truth does not depend on the loudness of your voice. In some cases, the louder the voice, the more guilty you feel.
Aji has a cheerful personality and has seldom had grudges with others since he was a child, let alone fussing over a weak girl.
But he and this flower girl had been quarreling from the first time they met.
Who would believe that there is no problem at all between the two of them?
Huan Ji became even more anxious when he saw that his brother didn't believe him.
"I sent her back because I thought she had heatstroke. I also heard she said Hua Qinghan was ill, so I took the opportunity to see him.
Brother, Hua Qinghan fell ill because of your marriage to Xiaojiu, is there nothing wrong with me going to check on him?"
Hearing that Hua Qinghan fell ill, Huan Yu felt very sad.
He had no intention of hurting anyone, but he ended up hurting him anyway.
Hua Qinghan is different from Wei Yuan in that his affection for Xiaojiu is also sincere and pure.
It's a pity that there is only one Xiaojiu, and her thoughts cannot be influenced by others.
He seems to have achieved what he wanted, but in fact he is still very far away from his goal.
"Aji, how is Hua Shizi's situation?"
"Hua Xiaohan said, Hua Qinghan heard that the Queen fell ill after taking the antidote you found to cure the poison.
My whole body was burning and I was still talking about Xiao Jiu.
But when I followed Hua Hou to see him, his high fever had subsided a lot.
The doctor said that he is young and in good health, and he will be fine after a few days of drinking and taking medicine."
Huan Yu said: "No wonder Hua Hou still wants to treat you to a drink."
Huan Ji pouted and said, "That's it, Marquis Hua. You didn't see Mrs. Hua, and I didn't offend her. She would fall out faster than turning the pages of a book."
I used to be a guest at Marquis Wenyuan's Mansion, and she was very kind to me, and even asked me to call them uncle and aunt.
But today, her attitude towards me was a bit cold, as if she treated me like a poisonous snake and beast.
If it weren't for Hua Hou's sake, I would just slap my ass and leave, who can bear to look at her face."
Huan Yu was a little surprised.
Hasn’t Mrs. Hua always been very kind to Aji?
He once thought she wanted to marry her daughter to Aji.
Why did it suddenly change?
"Stop talking about this, it's boring!" Huan Ji waved his hand: "Brother, the Queen has agreed to your marriage with Xiaojiu. What about Xiaojiu, is she particularly happy?"
"You have known Xiaojiu for so long, do you think she will be happy?"
"Well..." Huan Ji thought for a while: "I should be happy if I marry someone as good as my brother..."
Huan Yu smiled bitterly.
Aji answered so hesitantly, it was obvious that he knew Xiaojiu had no such intention towards him.
It was just to save the face of him and the Huan family and not break his promise.
"Hey!" Huan Ji patted him on the shoulder: "What's the point? There are many couples who get married without even meeting each other, and don't they develop feelings for each other later on?
Brother is so outstanding and outstanding, as long as you treat Xiaojiu sincerely, she will understand your feelings sooner or later, and she will definitely repay you with the same affection."
Huan Yu was amused by him, and the sorrow clouds in his heart gradually dissipated.
"Look at all the things you do, people who don't know would think you have so many confidantes."
Huan Ji said: "As the saying goes, it's better to see it than to eat it. I haven't experienced it myself, but I have many friends.
Those guys got together in their free time and talked about these things a lot."
Huan Yu couldn't help laughing.
"Don't laugh!" Huan Ji leaned closer to him: "Brother, you are a man, you must take the initiative in this kind of thing.
If you don't tell Xiaojiu your true thoughts, how will she know that you like her?
If she only regards you as a good brother, how could she have the kind of affection between a man and a woman for you?"
If you tell Xiaojiu your true thoughts, will she develop that kind of affection for you?
Huan Yu shook his head gently. He had already tried this method, but Xiao Jiu didn't believe it at all. What else could he do?
"This..." Huan Ji scratched his head: "By the way! You give Xiaojiu a gift. Girls like all kinds of small gifts. Will they develop feelings for each other over time?"
Huan Yu tapped his fingers on the table.
Giving gifts is indeed a good way to cultivate feelings.
But Xiaojiu is not an ordinary girl. She doesn't even bother to look at the small gifts that other noble ladies like.
"Brother..." Huan Ji pushed him: "You can't do this as well as Xiaojiu! She was even willing to give Chi Duhan's BMW to you, and you don't even know how to give her something nice in return."
Huan Yu's beautiful and long eyes suddenly emitted a bright light.
Yes, how could he forget this?
If there is anything in the world that Xiaojiu wants most and is most worthy of her, it is Hanshuang.
