Chapter 9 – Becoming a Son-in-Law?
“Your ideals are too idealistic. Right now, you’re a big sister. However, in the future, I will call you aunt.” Cheng Yu reply nonchalantly, “Cousin, why don’t you go tell her to find you a sister-in-law?”
“Good. Sister, you should be my sister-in-law, ok? Isn’t my cousin good?” This ti Zhao Yifang agreed.
Cheng Yu was truly happy, his cousin praised him very well. Seems like his cousin was better than this old looking sister here.
Seeing how haughty Cheng Yu was, Yang Ruoxue got angry. So, Cheng Yu decided to change the subject.
“You ate the Rejuvenation Pill, now your face looks so glossy.”
“Oh that’s right, my grandfather ate your pill and it really worked. He wanted to et you to say thank you.” Yang Ruoxue, hearing Cheng Yu speak of pills, excitedly said, “I gave so pills to my mom, grandma, and aunts to eat, and now they’re so happy. They’re really grateful to you!”
“Now you believe that I’m not a liar, right? Now, if you really want to thank , then you should keep your promise, I’m more interested in that.”
“Promise, what promise?” Zhao Yifang asked as Yang Ruoxue’s face grew red.
“Hehe, you should ask you older sister. But I’m afraid that if you ask her, she’ll act dumb.”
“Why should I lie?” Yang Ruoxue said with dissatisfaction.
“Not lying is best, now, co.” Cheng Yu moved his face closer to Yang Ruoxue’s.
“Well, my grandfather is all better now. But who knows if his sickness may recur again, you should observe him for a period of ti.” Looking at Cheng Yu’s scowling face, Yang Ruoxue blushed and quibbled. “Plus, I promised my grandparents to bring you to et them.”
“Hey woman, how can you be so shaless, to act like this. How can such reasons even… nevermind, I’ll just go see your grandfather and have him help .” Cheng Yu said without a care.
“You dare!” Yang Ruoxue angrily said.
“Well, we should go et your grandparents.” Cheng Yu was beaten as he took his cousin and walked out the door. Yang Ruoxue burst out in anger, how can there be such a shaless person! Sooner or later, I’m going to be mad.
An hour later, the three arrived at a large courtyard house.
“Your ancestral ho is quite nice, it should be from at least a century ago, right?” Cheng Yu said as he saw the mansion.
“Of course, our ho was built during the Qing Dynasty, and was constructed very well.” Yang Ruoxue proudly said.
Just as they entered the courtyard, an energetic voice sounded, “Haha, this must be Mr. Cheng. As expected, what a fine young man, very promising!” The sound from far away ca from a bright and cheery faced old-man, a smile was plastered all over his face. Behind him was a middle-aged man and woman.
“Haha, I presu this is old father Yang. Listening to your voice, you are filled with energy. Your body should be completely well.”
“Haha, this is the blessing of Mr. Cheng. Although you are very young, your dical expertise is at the pinnacle!” Old Yang—Yang Tianhu—said.
“Haha, old father, you can just call Young Yu. With my relationship with Yang Ruoxue, calling mister seems a bit too outcast.” Cheng Yu vaguely said.
“Oh?” Old Yang looked at the astonished couple behind him as he then turned to see the angry Yang Ruoxue. Seeing his, he laughed, “Haha, since that is the case, this old man asks Young Yu to co inside to talk.”
Everyone entered the house. Old Yang introduced everyone and Cheng Yu introduced Zhao Yifang. At this ti, as 15-year-old boy ran in.
“You cheeky brat, always running around. Haha, this is my grandson, he is in his 3rd year of middle school, Xue’er’s younger brother.” Old Yang introduced.
“Hey, aren’t you the ‘violent playboy’ Cheng Yu? You didn’t cheat my sister, right? Zhao Yifang, why are you here?” Yang Zhengqi was scared to see Cheng Yu, but was excited to see his classmate Zhao Yifang. Originally, Cheng Yu and Yang Zhengqi went to the sa school, though they aren’t in the sa class. Thus, it was hard to not know of the school’s celebrities. Especially if that person beat up the ‘evil tyrant’ Xu Dongyuan and earned the nickna—Violent Playboy.
“Hmph, the playboy is my cousin, so of course I am here.” Hearing Yang Zhengqi call her cousin a playboy, Zhao Yifang was not happy. Although her cousin was a playboy before, but now he was better. Even the flower Yang Ruoxue, the major beauty, was in love with her cousin, so how could she let anyone slander him.
“Eh? Zhao Yifang, you don’t have to be angry, I don’t have any other intentions.” Seeing that Zhao Yifang was mad, Yang Zhengqi hastily explained.
“Zhengqi, what are you doing, stand aside, you are being impolite.” Seeing that his grandson was speaking to his benefactor that way, he shouted.
“Oh.” Hearing his grandfather shout, Yang Zhengqi imdiately went listlessly.
“Young Yu, I’m truly embarrassed. He is spoiled, please don’t take it to heart.” Old Father Yang said.
“Haha, no need. I have quite the unpopular reputation at school.”Cheng Yu rubbed his nose and said embarrassingly. He didn’t expect to be defeated by a schoolkid.
“Today, I asked Young Yu to co here to say thank you. I originally thought that this old man’s life had co to and end, with no way out. I didn’t know what to do until I t you. I had a private doctor give a check up today and he said that my body is even better than normal. It’s simply a miracle! I listened to Yang Ruoxue, she said that you didn’t even want a penny. I know that to an expert like you, money is just a number. However, I want Young Yu to know that, although this Yang Tianhu is not the emperor, but as long as it’s within my ability and is not sothing illegal, I will help you to the end.” He heroically said.
“Haha, old father, I wanted to treat you and have also already received a type of paynt. In any event, I will not cure others no matter how much they pay , I will not do this for benefits. So, old father doesn’t need to owe anything.”
“I know that to you, this minor dicine pill is nothing. But whatever the place, no money could ever buy this minor dicine pill; it’s a treasure. So, you saying that will make feel very restless.” Yang Tianhu earnestly said.
“Since old father truly wishes to thank , I asked grandfather to allow Ruoxue and I to beco a couple.” Cheng Yu looked at Yang Ruoxue and smiled.
“Oh? Haha, Ruoxue, if you did not hear, you have to treat Young Yu better in the future. Young Yu, if Ruoxue is not good to you in the future, you can co to and I’ll help you sort her out.” Old Yang was very happy. Considering this youngster and his granddaughter, this idea was very good. At least, he was satisfied with him being his granddaughter’s husband. Indeed, this was the best. Although he was young, as long as they did not mind, he too wouldn’t mind.
Yang Ruoxue, hearing Cheng Yu bring this up in front of so many people, made her mad. She regretted bringing him here. From the beginning, he had everything under his control.
“Yu brother, if you want to be my sister’s husband, shouldn’t you bring out a betrothal gift?” At this mont, Yang Zhengqi shouted out, and imdiately, his sister slapped the back of his head.
“Haha, today I didn’t bring any gifts, but I have this vial of Longevity Pills. This pill can extend one’s longevity, nourishing and strengthening one’s body. This will make a person more vigorous and prolong their aging. Further on, they will unlikely fall ill anymore. But everyone, please don’t misunderstand. This isn’t a dowry gift, but sothing I want to give to grandfather. Of course, if Xue’er is willing, then I can prepare the dowry gift, haha.” Chen Yu took out the vial of pills and said.
Seeing Cheng Yu take the vial of pills out, the eyes of everyone began to shine. If it was before, nobody would have believed. But now, a dying man had taken one pill and beca vigorous and lively again. For a woman to turn 10 years younger in one night, who wouldn’t want such a godly pill.
“This, Young Yu, these pills are too precious, I cannot accept this. This old man already owes you a favor and hasn’t even paid you back. Not to ntion receiving even just one of these pills.” Yang Tianhu exclaid. Old father wasn’t making small of the matter, but to continue to receive favors, it was not right. Such dicinal pills, one was already priceless, not to ntion a whole bottle. Who would dare to receive such a thing. The people behind Old father were regretful, but they simply could not repay for such a thing even though they desired it. They simply couldn’t accept it.
“Haha, Old father, you spoke too seriously. These pills were refined to be eaten, let alone you and I have been brought together by fate. Don’t tell our fate cannot compare to these pills.” Cheng Yu took the bottle and put it into Old Yang’s hands.
“This… Truly, thank you so much Young Yu.” Everyone in the family was truly happy, this was the only elixir in the world.
“But, I must remind you all, these dicinal pills can be eaten by everyone but Zhengqi. He is still too young. Its value is displayed to the fullest when eaten by a person who has lived longer. Also, grandmother and aunts can eat the Eternal Youth Pill along with the Rejuvenation Pill. However, you must never eat another one again, or else your skin will be ruined! Also, don’t take the pills after their deadline, their abilities will wane and eating would be a waste.” Cheng Yu carefully stressed.
They had at lunch at the Yang’s residence. After, the four left with Yang Zhengqi included with the other three.
As they left the house, everyone began to talk.
“I think Young Yu is quite happy with our family’s Ruoxue, they are quite suited. Guofu, what do you think?” Yang Tianhu faced his oldest son—Yang Guofu—and asked.
“Haha, dad, if you say it like this, what else can I possibly say? However, I must say, this youngster is truly generous. To give a whole bottle of Longevity pills.” Yang Guofu laughed and said.
“Father, Young Yu said that these Longevity pills can make one more robust. This is the best ti to eat it.” His second son—Yang Guomin—licked his lips and said.
Hearing what his second son said, Yang Tianhu opened the pill bottle. Imdiately, the pill’s fragrance filled the entire house as everyone could feel the amazing and clear vital energy.
