Courtyard House: My Wife is Xu Huizhen

Page 454

He Yuzhu walked into the bedroom. Xu Huizhen sat calmly to one side, neither sad nor happy, and was sewing shoe soles.

"Wife, you're back?"

Xu Huizhen ignored him and turned her head to the side.

He Yuzhu didn't take it to heart. He walked over, put his arm around her, and sat down. Xu Huizhen's shoulders trembled a couple of times before she broke free.

He Yuzhu said, "I was just confused for a moment, don't be angry. If you don't like it, I'll make him leave tomorrow."

Xu Huizhen then spoke up: "And then, like those other women, they were all kept as mistresses outside?"

He Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief. Xu Huizhen was the most serious person. The fact that she could speak meant that things were negotiable. If she hadn't spoken, things would have been much more serious.

"Where are the women?"

"Are you still pretending at this point?"

He Yuzhu chuckled awkwardly twice; this was a difficult question to answer.

Xu Huizhen snorted and asked, "You're really something. We've been watching you every day, and you still managed to hook up with her right under our noses. Tell me, when did this happen?"

He Yuzhu said aggrievedly, "I assure you, this has never happened before. Yesterday was the first time. I didn't mean to hide it from you. I was planning to have her serve you tea tonight."

When Xu Huizhen heard that yesterday was the first time, she wasn't so angry anymore.

Actually, it was Huizhi who arranged for me to leave yesterday to go to my parents' home. She wanted to give He Yuzhu and Zhao Yuezhen time and space to strengthen their relationship.

Unexpectedly, He Yuzhu acted directly, and when I returned, I saw He Yuzhu coming out of the west wing.

For a moment, I assumed that they had been hooking up before.

However, I was still very angry. Since there was no affair before, how could He Yuzhu stay overnight in the west wing?

"You're pretty fast!"

He Yuzhu was greatly surprised: "Don't you know whether I'm fast or not?"

Xu Huizhen blushed and exclaimed, "Is this what I meant?"

He Yuzhu decided to change the subject and not discuss this issue anymore, so he said, "You know that I practice martial arts, and so does Zhao Yuezhen."

Xu Huizhen knew about this, of course; He Yuzhu had even put on a show to persuade them before.

He Yuzhu is invulnerable to swords and spears.

This isn't just an adjective; it means he's truly invulnerable to swords and spears. You could slash him with a large knife and it wouldn't leave a mark.

He could catch bullets with his bare hands, and He Yuzhu even had to demonstrate the effect of bullets hitting him.

Xu Huizhen, of course, would not agree.

Why are you telling me this? I'm talking about the ridiculous things you've done.

He Yuzhu said seriously, "I just realized that when I do that thing with Zhao Yuezhen, we can cultivate together."

"Dual cultivation? You've been reading too many novels, haven't you? You're just using that to fool me?"

Xu Huizhen angrily took the large needle in her hand and pricked his thigh.

Unfortunately, even though the needle was the thickest model, it couldn't pierce He Yuzhu's skin and broke in two.

He Yuzhu said, "It's fine if I get pricked, but this perfectly good needle is now in two. Isn't that a waste?"

"Stop trying to bluff your way out of this."

He Yuzhu said, "It's true, and I've found a way for you and Huizhi to cultivate your vital energy."

"I don't believe you, you're just talking nonsense."

He Yuzhu said, "If you don't believe me, let's try it."

He then picked up Xu Huizhen, placed her on the bed, and began to unbutton her clothes.

"Are you crazy? They're all outside."

He Yuzhu turned around and went outside, bolted the door to the main room, and then came back.

Xu Huizhen had just gotten off the bed when He Yuzhu hugged her again.

"Are you crazy? Are you serious?"

He Yuzhu said, "Really, I can help you develop a sense of Qi."

When Xu Huizhen saw him pressing down on her and actually starting to take off his clothes, she quickly said, "I'm not angry anymore, and I believe you. Please don't do this."

He Yuzhu said, "Today I will help you enter the Ming Jin realm."

The first step in learning martial arts is to rely on various techniques to generate a sense of energy within the body, allowing vital energy to be stored in the dantian.

Xu Huizhen only began cultivating for a period of time after she came of age, with the help of He Yuzhu. Unfortunately, she didn't have much talent and was never able to generate Qi.

I gave up after practicing for a while.

Today, He Yuzhu wanted to turn his idea into reality and study how long his true energy would remain in Xu Huizhen's body.

Given enough time, combined with Xu Huizhen's practice, she might be able to truly transform her vital energy into her own.

Once I had this idea, I wanted to test it out as soon as possible.

Xu Huizhen was a little angry today, so I'm going to seduce her again.

The two were an old married couple. Seeing that He Yuzhu was very insistent, Liu Huizhen didn't say anything more and cooperated by taking off their clothes.

Seeing that He Yuzhu was still explaining seriously and trying to calm himself down, it didn't seem like he was faking it, so he cooperated.

Not long after, I suddenly felt a breath emerge from deep within my body, traveling along various pathways throughout my body.

The aura felt warm and comfortable wherever it went, eventually reaching three inches below the navel, the so-called dantian.

All the breaths gathered together, like a small stove held in one's bosom.

He Yuzhu then asked, "Did you feel it?"

Xu Huizhen nodded: "It's so warm. If it were winter, it wouldn't be cold."

He believed He Yuzhu's words; they were all true.

Couldn't we have waited until night to conduct the experiment? It's daytime now, Xu Huizhi would definitely laugh at us to death.

In the courtyard, Xiu'er got tired of playing and wanted to go inside for a drink of water. She pushed the double doors in front of the main room, but they didn't budge.

It's obvious that something was inserted inside.

She ran up to Xu Huizhi and complained, "Auntie, Dad and Mom are sneaking food in the house right on time. They've locked the door and won't let me eat."

Xu Huizhi burst out laughing, and Zhao Yuezhen quickly said:

"I have water and good food in my house, let's not bother your parents."

He admired He Yuzhu immensely. Since last night, it had been one battle after another, with breaks in between, but the frequency was still very high.

In the evenings, Xu Huizhi would usually serve him.

Inside the room, He Yuzhu was also carefully pondering. The vital energy he had accumulated was indeed dissipating, but the dissipation was relatively slow, probably enough to last for a day and a night.

With this, He Yuzhu felt at ease, and could continue to infuse his vital energy into his body every day for continuous transformation.

After the battle ended, Xu Huizhen saw that it was almost evening. While getting dressed, she complained about He Yuzhu's absurdity.

She opened the door apologetically, and Xiuer noticed her immediately, running up to her and asking:

"Mom, what delicious food did you and Dad sneak around inside the room?"

Xu Huizhen was so embarrassed that she had to coax him a couple of times to get him out of it.

In the evening, He Yuzhu prepared a table full of dishes.

He Yuzhu and Xu Huizhen sat in the main seats of the hall, and Xu Huizhi brought over a tea tray.

Zhao Yuezhen changed into a pink coat and very reservedly took a cup of tea from the tea tray, first offering it to He Yuzhu.

"Brother Zhu, please have some tea."

He Yuzhu took the drink, then handed over a red envelope after receiving the money.

Zhao Yuezhen thanked her, then picked up a cup of tea and offered it to Xu Huizhen with both hands.

"Please have some tea, elder sister."

Xu Huizhen didn't make things difficult for him, smoothly accepted the tea, took a sip, and said:

"From now on, we're all sisters. We need to work together to keep an eye on this scoundrel, understand?"

She said this, and then handed over a red envelope.

Zhao Yuezhen took it and thanked her, saying, "You know, little sister."

"Okay, don't be so serious," He Yuzhu said.

Xu Huizhen glared at him: "If you had this idea earlier, you should have told me beforehand. Now I'm the one who's caught in the middle."

He Yuzhu chuckled and said, "We haven't had time yet. Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. After we have the reunion dinner, we'll be one family."

The three children nearby looked on in amazement, completely unable to understand what was being said. When they heard that they could eat, they all cried out.

After dinner, He Yuzhu went to Xu Huizhen's bedroom first.

"What are you doing here? Today is Sister Yuezhen's big day."
