Scent of Time (2023) Episode 4

Hua Shen fell in love with a girl in a teahouse and wanted to take her home no matter what. The girl cried and shouted that she did not want to go with her, but Hua Shen scolded her for not knowing the heights of the world. Zhong Xiwu, who was upstairs, heard the commotion and asked the guards around him to go down and rescue the girl. But Hua Shen still refused to repent, and even took out his identity as the uncle of the Zhong family, causing Zhong Xiwu a headache.

The head of the Zhong family and his wife happened to be away from home today, so the servants had no choice but to find Hua Qian. Hua Qian shook her head, sighed heavily, and then hurried to the teahouse to wipe her brother's butt. When Hua Shen saw his sister coming, he hurried to her, complained to her, and asked her to avenge him. The guards on the side couldn't help but ridicule Hua Qian, saying that she had used dirty tricks to get into the Zhong family, and she was just the same as Hua Shen.

Hua Qian was angry in her heart, but she quickly calmed down and carefully looked at the two brave men in front of her. But just as he was thinking about it, a young man appeared out of nowhere and pounced on the two strong men. However, after all, he was no match for the two of them. Not only did he not injure them at all, but he himself was seriously injured. Hua Qian hurriedly stood up and complained for the young man, accusing the two of them of slandering the Zhong family. Then, she pointed at Hua Shen and asked someone to take him into prison. In the end, the two men took the initiative to apologize, and the girl bluntly said that she would not pursue the matter further, and the matter was settled.

Hua Qian was just thinking about the origins of the two heroes he met today when Zhong Xiwu came down from upstairs to greet them. What Hua Qian didn't expect even more was that Zhong Xiwu actually offered to take a ride. Hua Qian originally wanted to refuse, but when the words came to her lips, she just made it her own choice. Along the way, the two of them were silent in the cramped carriage. Hua Qian felt embarrassed, but she didn't understand why Zhong Xiwu, who always valued etiquette, did such an unruly thing today.

At night, as soon as Zhong Yelan came home, he hurriedly asked about Hua Qian's situation and blamed her for not asking him to solve the problem together today. Hua Qian hurriedly explained, but both inside and outside his words were clarifying his relationship with Zhong Yelan. Zhong Yelan couldn't help but sigh, it seemed that after getting married, Hua Qian was particularly cold towards him. He thought Hua Qian was blaming him for neglecting her a few days ago, so he quickly promised that he would treat her well in the future. Hua Qian was so frightened that she almost spat out a mouthful of water and hurriedly avoided Zhong Yelan's comforting hand.

Mu Yao was very honest and said that the reason why he wanted to stay in the Zhong family was to find out the truth. Zhong Yelan was furious and felt that Mu Yao was taking advantage of her, so he planned to drive her out. Mu Yao asked Zhong Yelan for three months. If he had not investigated the truth in three months, or if Hua Qian was really not the mastermind behind the scenes, he would leave on his own and would not return to Huangcheng, nor would he say anything about it outside. Things about the Zhong Jiahua family. Zhong Yelan had no choice but to follow her.

At the moment, what makes Zhong Yelan even more troubled is how to calm down Hua Qian. So, he chose a good piano and asked his guard Nanfeng to send it to Hua Qian. But Hua Qian only glanced at it and asked Nanfeng to put the piano in the warehouse. After that, Zhong Yelan sent a bunch of good things to Hua Qian, but Hua Qian gradually refused to give them more and asked Nanfeng to send them to the warehouse.

In the past few days, Hua Qian ran to Zhong's Garden whenever he had something to do, vowing to get closer to the eldest princess. Thanks to Hua Qian's unremitting efforts, the relationship with the eldest princess has indeed become much closer, but as a result, she also saw a lot of excitement in Zhong's Garden. The maid Yaxiang admires Zhongxiwu and thinks of ways to show her face to Zhongxiwu all day long. But in Zhong's Garden, she was not the only one who admired Zhong Xiwu, there were even people more powerful than her. And the daughter of the Qi family who lives in Zhongshi Garden is one of them.

On this day, the Queen Mother sent someone all the way to deliver lychees. The eldest princess knew that the queen mother missed her grandson Zhong Xiwu, so she planned to send someone to deliver him to him. Yaxiang was not willing to let go of this opportunity, so she took the initiative to ask Miao to take over the task. The Qi eldest daughter on the side hated Yaxiang's behavior and couldn't help but taunt him. The eldest princess's face gradually darkened, and finally she asked Hua Qian to send it to Zhong Xiwu. But when they arrived at the study, Zhong Xiwu ignored her. Hua Qian was not upset and put the food box on the table herself. She was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhong Xiwu. Zhong Xiwu handed her an account book, which recorded Hua Shen's wanton withdrawal of money from the incense shop in the name of Hua Wenang. He asked coldly, wondering if Hua Wenang knew about this.
