After lunch, Gu Jian got someone to fetch farming tools for Gu Moyan and Tang Zijin: "Today, the two of you must plant a whole field of medicinal seedlings. Now, I’m going to take a nap, and you can head down the mountain by yourselves. When I wake up, I will come and inspect."
Seeing that Gu Jian was serious, Gu Moyan had no choice but to reluctantly take the tools and leave the house.
Tang Zijin noticed this, glanced at Gu Jian, and under Gu Jian’s smiling gaze, she trotted to catch up.
On their way down the mountain, Gu Moyan and Tang Zijin were once again surrounded and observed by a group of young ladies.
"Chubby face, I really underestimated you. Your skill at winning people over is truly impressive!"
Upon reaching the medicinal field, Gu Moyan unceremoniously began to mock Tang Zijin.
Tang Zijin knew why he was angry, but she hadn’t meant to run into the ancestor on purpose. Knowing explanations were futile, she silently took the medicinal hoe and went to the field, leaving Gu Moyan with her back.
Seeing her like this, Gu Moyan was infuriated.
Ignoring him again!!!
Is Chubby Face rebelling?
Gu Moyan took the medicinal seedlings from the medicinal farmer’s hand and walked over to Tang Zijin. She dug a hole, and he planted a medicinal seedling.
Most of the medicinal fields in Tang Zijin’s estate were personally tended by her, and Gu Moyan had grown up following Gu Jian, so both of them were well-versed in planting medicinal herbs.
As such, they worked together seamlessly.
Gu Moyan watched Tang Zijin, who was focused on digging holes: "Chubby face, I sternly warn you once—stop deliberately currying favor with the ancestor. Did you hear me?"
Tang Zijin put down the medicinal hoe, frowned, and looked at Gu Moyan: "I didn’t deliberately curry favor with the ancestor."
Gu Moyan didn’t believe her and sneered: "Who are you fooling? If you weren’t trying to curry favor with the ancestor, why would you come to the medicinal field?"
Tang Zijin: "I came here by chance."
Gu Moyan snorted with laughter: "What a coincidence." Then, he clicked his tongue, "Every other young lady is playing on Taohua Mountain, yet you’re wandering alone down here? Shouldn’t you come up with a better reason before lying?"
Tang Zijin didn’t know how to respond, she couldn’t very well say she didn’t fit in, could she?
Seeing her silent, Gu Moyan’s face showed a cold smile: "What, can’t answer?"
Tang Zijin paused for a moment, continued digging: "Say what you like, anyway, I didn’t deliberately curry favor with the ancestor. Believe it or not."
Gu Moyan grabbed Tang Zijin’s hoe, snorted coldly: "It’s been years since we met, not only have you grown a temper, but you’re also lying without blinking an eye."
Misunderstood like this, Tang Zijin really got angry, immediately struck back: "It’s been years since we met, and Young Lord’s brain has become even more obtuse. The ancestor already likes me; do I need to deliberately curry favor?"
Hearing this, Gu Moyan was momentarily stunned, then his breathing became rough from anger.
Well then, Chubby Face’s courage has grown; not only does she dare to retort but also insults his intellect!
If he doesn’t teach her a lesson, she might forget how high the heavens are and how thick the earth is!
Gu Moyan exerted force while gripping the hoe, causing Tang Zijin to stumble towards him.
Tang Zijin’s face directly collided with Gu Moyan’s chest, causing her eyes to redden immediately. She dropped the hoe, held her nose, and looked at Gu Moyan with a face full of accusation.
The Young Lord is even more wicked than before!
