In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Chapter 212: The Island East of the City

The two arrived at the island, and Su Yueyao got off the boat. Looking ahead, she discovered that the island had almost been built into a small town, with courtyards and scattered businesses.

Su Yueyao followed Xun Haoxuan quietly into a house, where she found pavilions and towers similar to the scenery of the Jiangnan region.

How many ships were needed to transport the materials to build this place? The Queen is really generous!

After entering an archway, Su Yueyao discovered a large open space in front of her, which was full of people. Someone said something that made everyone look at them.

"Lady Su and Mr. Xun are here."

"Master Xun, have you gone to pick up Miss Su in person? You came so late, you will have to drink a glass of wine as a punishment later." A man said with a smile.

"Yes!"

"Second Young Master, the master of the family asks you and Miss Su to go there quickly." A servant said.

"Everyone, I will take Miss Su to meet my grandfather first, and then I will talk to you later." Xun Haoxuan said to the people in front of him.

The servant led the two men to the inner courtyard.

When Su Yueyao entered the inner courtyard, she found that there were quite a lot of people. There were so many people!

"How are you, grandpa? This is Lady Su." Xun Haoxuan bowed to the old man sitting in the upper seat and introduced him.

When Su Yueyao heard this, she also performed the junior’s greeting: “Greetings, Master Xun.”

"Good! Good! Miss Su is about to marry my grandson, so you can just call me grandpa from now on." Old Master Xun was very satisfied with Su Yueyao's courtesy and said with a smile.

"Okay, grandpa." Su Yueyao heard it and called him grandpa without any shyness and performed the salute as a junior.

"Good! Good! Good!"

"Father, Miss Su must be tired after rushing here, let her and Haoxuan sit down!" said Minister Xun.

"That's right, Xuan'er, take good care of Miss Su today. Please take a seat!"

"Okay grandpa."

Su Yueyao and Xun Haoxuan sat in the front seats, and the people below looked at her curiously, intentionally or unintentionally.

In the meantime, more and more people came to see Master Xun.

When meeting a family with a deep foundation, Master Xun would introduce them to Su Yueyao, and Su Yueyao would also bow and greet them.

After so many introductions like this, Su Yueyao felt like she had met a lot of people today. From constantly bowing and greeting people, her throat felt like it was smoking.

Finally it was time for lunch, and Haruhi and Harushuang came over by boat.

"What took you two so long to get here?"

"My lady, the boats always bring the passengers first, and then the servants get on board, so it's a little late." Kasuga explained.

"I'm glad nothing happened! There should be a special place for servants to have lunch. Go eat something first and then come find me. I have Master Xun here, so nothing will happen." Su Yueyao said to the two of them.

"My lady, why don't I and Chunshuang take turns going?" Chunri said softly as he looked at the people on both sides.

"It's okay. Young Master Xun just left to get some things and will be back soon. You have been waiting for a whole morning. Go quickly!" Su Yueyao said.

Chunri saw that Su Yueyao insisted, so they left.

Su Yueyao stood under a tree, quietly watching the busy crowd in front of her.

"Why is Miss Su here alone?"

Su Yueyao turned her head to look at the young master who was speaking. It turned out to be the two young masters of the Xiao family, Xiao Yunzheng and Xiao Yunjing.

"Haoxuan is going to get some things and will be back in a while. Aren't you and the others going to have dinner, Mr. Xiao?" Su Yueyao said as she took a step back, showing her indifference to the two of them.

"The two of us were just about to go, but when we saw Miss Su here alone, we came over to say hello." Xiao Yunzheng said.

"Then I won't disturb you two. I'll go over there to look for Haoxuan." Su Yueyao walked around directly, trying to avoid the two of them.

Xiao Yunjing wanted to stop Su Yueyao, but Xiao Yunzheng held her back.

Su Yueyao just disappeared from their sight.

"Brother, why are you stopping me? It's rare for us to see Su Yueyao." Xiao Yunjing said.

"There are so many people here, and Su Yueyao obviously doesn't want to contact us. If an argument occurs, it will be disadvantageous to us. We are looking for an opportunity to meet her alone." Xiao Yunzheng said softly.

"All right!"

Su Yueyao breathed a sigh of relief when she felt the gaze from behind her disappear. She didn't know why, but she just couldn't like the two young masters of the Xiao family, even though they were both good-looking.

"Why did Miss Su come here?" Xun Haoxuan said.

"I'll just take a walk."

"This is peach blossom pastry, which is produced in abundance on the island. I sent someone to guard it this morning! Miss Su, please try it and see if it's delicious. I heard that there is a place to enjoy peach blossoms here. It's made specifically with fresh peach blossoms. Many women like to eat it!" Xun Haoxuan handed the peach blossom pastry to Su Yueyao and said.

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Xun. I'll try it." Su Yueyao took out a piece and took a bite. It was sweet but not greasy. She didn't expect that the pastries here could be so outstanding.

"It's delicious. This is the most delicious pastry I have ever eaten. You should try it too." Su Yueyao took out a piece and handed it to Xun Haoxuan.

Xun Haoxuan looked at the pastries handed to him by Su Yueyao and suddenly felt hungry. He lowered his head and took a bite.

However, at this moment, his lips accidentally touched Su Yueyao's fingers.

At that moment, Su Yueyao felt an electric current spreading from her fingertips throughout her body, causing her body to tremble slightly. Her cheeks instantly flushed, and a strange feeling surged in her heart.

She felt that Xun Haoxuan was seducing her...

"Ms. Su's pastries are indeed delicious." Xun Haoxuan said with a smile.

He actually doesn't like sweets, but today he especially wants to eat some.

And when he saw Su Yueyao's face slightly blushing, he was even more delighted. At least she didn't hate his touch. He would try his best to slowly walk into her heart.

Let him be in her eyes and heart.

"Ms. Su, let's go to the dining hall!" Xun Haoxuan reached out and held her hand and said.

Su Yueyao felt the warmth coming from his hand, and her heart couldn't help but ripple. The warmth seemed to be transmitted to her heart through his palm, making her a little at a loss, but she did not immediately break free from Xun Haoxuan's hand.

The two men arrived at the dining room and found that the servants were bringing in meals one by one.

"Xuan'er, quickly ask Miss Su to sit down." Minister Xun said.

"Okay, uncle."

After all the dishes were served, Master Xun appeared and sat at the main seat. Everyone raised their glasses to him and started eating.

This time, Xun Haoxuan wanted to serve Su Yueyao meal personally.

"Tell me what you want to eat, Miss Su, and I'll help you serve the food."

"Why don't you send a servant? Aren't you hungry?" Su Yueyao felt a little embarrassed. Although they had been granted marriage, they were not married yet, so Xun Haoxuan didn't have to serve her.

"Didn't Miss Su feed me a bite of peach blossom cake just now?"

"That's just a little bit. This steamed shrimp is delicious. You should try it." Su Yueyao took out a bowl of shrimps that Xun Haoxuan had just peeled and handed one to him.

Xun Haoxuan didn't hesitate and ate it directly.

"It's really delicious." Xun Haoxuan said happily with a smile.

Su Yueyao looked at Xun Haoxuan picking fish bones and asked, "Are there many fish here?"

"Yes! It's surrounded by water, so of course there are more fish. I heard that the chefs here are best at cooking fish, better than the chefs in the palace."

"Your Majesty also arranged these cooks?"

"That should be it! I haven't been to the kitchen so I'm not sure, but when your majesty started the construction of this island, he said he had no money, so many noble families donated some money. After the island was built, your majesty made a lot of money, and the noble families thought that they also contributed money, so they asked your majesty to give some benefits."

"Your Majesty has opened up the island's recreational rights to those noble families."

The more Su Yueyao listened, the more she felt it was wonderful! Your Majesty is really talented! Those noble families held banquets here, and the money they spent on arranging them all went into Your Majesty's pocket.

"Miss Su, try this fish." Xun Haoxuan handed the fish with the bones removed to Su Yueyao and motioned for her to eat some.

Su Yueyao took a bite and it tasted so fresh! There was no fishy smell at all.

After everyone had a pleasant lunch, they went out to play on their own and could leave at any time.

Su Yueyao and Xun Haoxuan were walking around in circles, enjoying their leisurely stroll.

But there were two people watching them in the dark.

"Brother, Su Yueyao has been staying with the young master of the Xun family, and we can't see her alone!" Xiao Yunjing said.

Xiao Yunzheng looked at the relaxed Su Yueyao and felt a little annoyed. A woman from a remote county town looked down on them and was unwilling to marry them.

Mother was already preparing to find a candidate for their marriage. Father usually stayed in the study room painting. Mother would tell him how great it was that they were marrying into a noble family. In fact, marriage into a noble family was not that good.

"I know what to do. I'll do it this way later..." Xiao Yunzheng said with a gloomy expression.

"Will it be bad if I do this?"

"It's okay, our ship will follow closely in a while, nothing will happen." Xiao Yunzheng said.

"Okay, I know how to arrange it."

Su Yueyao didn't know all this. She was strolling around the island with Xun Haoxuan. She bought a hairpin for each of the three men in her family. Although the hairpin was not very valuable, the workmanship was very exquisite.

"Miss Su is so good to her husbands at home. She never forgets to bring them gifts when she goes out." Xun Haoxuan said as he watched Su Yueyao picking and choosing in a small shop.

"Of course, Master Xun, you should thank them. They specially encouraged you and me to come out today." Su Yueyao smiled and continued to pick out suitable hairpins in the shop.

"My brothers are really nice. I'll have someone send them a small gift later."

"You should have a good relationship with them!" Su Yueyao said casually.

Xun Haoxuan felt more and more upset as he listened.

When he wanted to say something else, Su Yueyao handed him a hairpin and said, "This one is for you. You both have one. I won't favor one over the other."

The feeling of being suffocated in Xun Haoxuan's heart disappeared in an instant. He immediately took Su Yueyao's hairpin, took off the one on his head, and put the one Su Yueyao gave him in his hair.

"It looks very nice and suits your temperament very well." Su Yueyao said with a smile.

"Thank you, I like it very much."

Su Yueyao asked the store owner to pack up the remaining six hairpins and paid the money. Although the material was not of the best quality, seven hairpins cost a total of one thousand and two taels of silver.

When it was time to pay, Xun Haoxuan wanted to give it, but Su Yueyao stopped him, jokingly saying that she wanted to buy gifts for the men, so how could she spend his money.

When Su Yueyao paid, she felt a little pain, but she felt it was worth it. After all, he was her husband! It was her due.
