The atmosphere in the blacksmith shop became extremely quiet because of Pei Jiangdu's words.
For a while, all that could be heard was the crackling sound of the fire burning.
Tang Hao's hand holding the hammer trembled slightly, and his eyes looked back and forth between Tang Yuehua and Pei Jiangdu.
The vicissitudes of his face was filled with disbelief at this moment.
Pei Jiangdu was a little embarrassed by Tang Hao's gaze.
Even though this rumored Clear Sky Sect genius had broken his arm and was in such a state of desolation, the oppressive feeling coming from his bones still made him, a lowly Spirit Master, feel suffocated.
"Yuehua, is what he said true?"
Tang Hao finally set his sights on Tang Yuehua.
Tang Hao clearly knows what Yuehua thinks about him.
As for the Tang Clan's expression, he also knew it very well.
Can Yuehua really let go?
So why can't he forget Ah Yin after so many years?
Tang Yuehua had a gentle smile on his face, his eyes were clear and calm.
She did not dodge Tang Hao's gaze, nor did she reveal the deep feelings she had suppressed for many years.
Tang Yuehua just looked at him quietly, like an ordinary sister meeting a brother she hadn't seen for a long time.
"Hao...Second Brother."
She called him a habitual name, but changed her words when she realized something was wrong.
"What happened in the past was that I was young and ignorant, which caused you a lot of troubles, and I even didn't hesitate to come to such a remote place."
"Now that I have figured it out, Jiang Du treats me very well, and we... plan to get married."
She turned sideways, reluctantly holding on to Pei Jiangdu's arm.
"Yes, yes, Second Brother."
Pei Jiangdu bit the bullet, followed the script that had been rehearsed countless times, and continued to act under the oppressive gaze of Tang Hao.
"I have known Yuehua for three years, and we have a deep relationship. We are already planning to get married."
"I just heard Yuehua say that Second Brother is the only relative in the family. I came here just to ask Second Brother to be a witness."
Pei Jiangdu is someone who has watched a lot of TV series after all. After getting used to this kind of gaze and atmosphere, he, who is from a good background, gradually got better at his performances.
He grabbed Tang Yuehua's shoulders, took her into his arms, and gave Tang Hao a gentle and decent smile.
"Second Brother." He spoke in a sincere and respectful tone, "Yuehua is a good girl, and I will treat her well for the rest of my life."
Tang Yuehua still kept smiling, showing no discomfort at all.
"Second Brother, are you going to let us stand at the door and talk?"
Tang Yuehua wanted to get rid of this situation, so he changed the topic.
Tang Hao then retracted his appraising gaze and stepped aside to let Tang Yuehua and Pei Jiangdu enter the house.
When Tang Yuehua approached the blacksmith shop, Tang Hao thought of the dire situation inside the house.
The shop was very simple, with only a wooden table and a few benches. There were some blacksmith tools and unfinished farm tools piled in the corner.
In addition, there were wine jars scattered on the ground and old clothes that had not been washed.
The heat from the fire hit your face, smelling of rust and charcoal, mixed with the pungent smell of alcohol, making you extremely uncomfortable.
Pei Jiangdu's house was always neat and tidy no matter how poor it was. He had never seen such a messy and dilapidated residence.
He endured the discomfort surging in his nose and did not cover his mouth and nose on the spot. He relied on his many years of aristocratic upbringing to maintain his dignity.
Tang Yuehua has always been pampered and has never encountered such a situation.
But this is the home of her beloved Hao.
Tang Yuehua's eyes swept over the scattered wine jars and dirty clothes. There was no trace of disgust in his eyes, but a thin layer of mist appeared in his eyes.
Thinking that Tang Hao has been living here so hard and with no one to take care of him, Tang Yuehua feels very distressed.
She let go of Pei Jiangdu's arm, walked quickly to the scattered clothes, squatted down, and picked them up one by one.
After the clothes were piled together, I went to clean up the wine jars all over the floor.
"Yuehua, no need..."
Tang Hao subconsciously wanted to stop him, but was blocked by Tang Yuehua's calm gaze when he raised his head.
"Second Brother." She sighed, "Even if you live alone, you should tidy up."
Her tone was as natural as if she was really just a sister who cared about her brother.
Pei Jiangdu stood at the door, looking at this scene, secretly sweating in his heart.
He remembered Tang Yuehua's instructions before leaving.
You don't need to do anything too intimate, just show the right amount of care when necessary.
So he stepped forward and took a wine jar from Tang Yuehua's hand.
"Yuehua, let me do it. You are tired from the journey, so take a rest first."
Tang Yuehua smiled softly at him, "Then I'll trouble you, Jiang Du."
The two of them cooperated tacitly, one tidying up the wine jar and the other tidying up the clutter in the corner, as if they were lovers who had been together for many years.
Tang Hao watched his sister busy with Pei Jiangdu, who was said to be her fiancé, and felt a little complicated.
He couldn't tell whether this complicated emotion was because his sister was finally going to become someone else's family, or because he was happy that his sister had finally given up on his feelings for him.
When they could finally see clearly into the room, the three of them sat down.
"How did you... get together?"
Pei Jiangdu knows that this is the highlight.
He tidied up his clothes and told Tang Hao about his "first encounter" and love affair with Tang Yuehua.
Probably nobles are good at pretending and acting. After what Pei Jiangdu said, even Tang Yuehua, who knew the truth, almost believed it.
Not to mention Tang Hao.
Tang Hao never thought that Tang Yuehua would lie to him, so he believed what they said without much doubt.
"Second Brother, my wedding with Jiang Du is scheduled to be held in Heaven Dou City in one month."
"You... will participate, right?"
Tang Yuehua lowered his head, "Father is dead, Brother Xiao is also dead, you are the only relative I have left."
Without Tang Yuehua's feelings for him, Tang Hao no longer has to take her away.
"I'll go back with you."
Tang Yuehua couldn't help but laugh happily, "That's great!"
"When you go back this time, Second Brother, you don't have to leave again. I opened a Moonlight Pavilion in Heaven Dou City, specializing in training aristocratic students, and the money I earned is enough for our expenses."
When Tang Hao heard this, he shook his head and said, "How can this be done? Since you are married, all you have to do is take care of your family and his."
Pei Jiangdu At this time, I knew that the time had come to show off.
"Second Brother, you are Yuehua's Second Brother. Even getting married cannot change this fact. She should take care of her brother."
The two of them settled the matter just by talking to each other.
Huo Yuhao did not follow Holy Soul Village, but as long as he wanted to, what happened to Holy Soul Village could not be hidden from him.
Naturally, he also saw how Pei Jiangdu and Tang Yuehua deceived Tang Hao.
"We have to wait for another ten days."
