Xie Jingcheng had no evil thoughts in his mind, but his heart was beating so fast and so complicated that it was difficult to control.

It was an unprecedented throbbing in his life, but it was a pity that the time and place of their meeting destined them to be incompatible.

After the groom picked up the bride, he went to the front yard to bid farewell to his parents, and the two walked out.

Through the crowd, the beautiful lady saw someone who shouldn't be there early on.

Looking at the man with a peacock tail spread out among the colorful flowers and willows, Yuer was not angry. Instead, she felt that the dust had settled and that this was how it should be.

The beautiful lady passed by the Duke, who was fanning himself and had a flamboyant temperament, in the crowd.

During this time, his eyes did not move, and he did not even look at someone who was standing right next to him, with eyes full of expectation and excitement.

Let his gaze, which was fixed on her, fall into oblivion.

Zheng Peizhi lowered his brows in disappointment.

He was alone in the noisy crowd, like a wet dog.

Unable to shake its tail, the phantom's tail drooped limply behind it, looking both pitiful and cute.

Qingxue followed behind her mother. The little girl was not surprised that her cheap stepfather came over to show his presence.

It would be a surprise if you didn't come.

Zheng Peizhi's prominent eyebrows drooped limply, and his expression was listless.

Qingxue and Mrs. Hao, who was accompanying Yu'er and secretly looking over, looked at each other, and the helplessness in their eyes was obvious and could not be hidden.

The same thought came to my mind.

"Why are you so clingy?"

Qingxue withdrew her gaze, walked slowly, and even stood still.

Looking at the pitiful cheap stepfather in front of me, I couldn't bear it.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to call out "Mom", Yu'er, who was facing away from them, spoke softly without even turning his head.

"What are you still standing there for?"

Passersby didn't know the inside story and just thought that the beautiful lady was calling Qingxue.

Then Qingxue saw her cheap stepfather, who was timid and gloomy one second, become happier than a big dog with a bone the next second.

His expression changed extremely quickly, his raised eyebrows merged back into his lively eyes.

He waved the fan in front of his chest with his arms, the whistling wind blew the hair hanging down from his temples, and he turned his head quickly.

Without even trying to communicate with her through his eyes, he ran away without even looking back.

Looking at Zheng Peizhi who ran behind his mother in a flash and followed her obediently.

The little girl raised her eyebrows, staring blankly and then hesitated to speak. She had gained some experience and thought to herself:

"It seems I was worrying too much."

In the main hall, the groom and the bride came to bid farewell to their parents.

Yu'er and Zheng Peizhi came to the lobby one after another, and Leng Siqian had already sat in the main seat.

Seeing his ex-wife coming over, he waved with an awkward look and called her over.

In public, Yu'er noticed the gazes coming from all directions and pursed her lips uncomfortably.

I secretly cursed my ex-husband for being so troublesome and always looking for trouble.

"After all, you are the legitimate mother who watched Fourth Sister grow up. Today she is getting married, so you should accept her greetings."

The guests said nothing but moved quickly, making way for a wide path in the middle.

Yu'er cursed in her heart, but had to give face to the bride.

In fact, according to her idea, the one who deserved this respect the most should be curled up in the backyard right now.

The one who couldn't come out was Fourth Sister's biological mother, Concubine Song.

Unfortunately, this world is so unfair to women, and concubines have no right to socialize.

Even if his own daughter got married, he could not come to the front yard openly to receive the farewell ceremony from his daughter and son-in-law.

Normally speaking, on a wedding day, the lobby of the main courtyard should be bustling, if not crowded.

What was strange was that none of the guests watching the ceremony in the lobby made a sound. The huge space was extremely quiet.

Zheng Peizhi's eyes were fixed on the beautiful lady who was sitting in the main seat and accepting the farewell of the bride and groom.

The two best seats in front of the hall are the positions for monogamy in the eyes of the world.

He should have been sitting next to the beautiful lady, but now he was just sitting there, like a bystander.

The family looked so harmonious in front of everyone.

Jealousy, anger and grievance gradually emerged in the eyes of the Duke. He looked up at the beautiful lady at the top of the crowd.

The beautiful lady naturally noticed his aggrieved and pitiful look and looked over at him.

The sparkling pupils contained a warm soothing look in their eyes.

The man looked in for a long time, then finally gritted his teeth and pursed his lips.

I barely suppressed the strong desire to carry the person away and hide him on the spot.

Over there, Yu'er took the tea offered by the bride with both hands, lifted the lid slightly, put it to her lips and took a sip.

The woman spoke in a gentle but cold voice, which startled the guests present.

"Fourth sister, you are getting married and leaving home today. I have little to say to you. I just hope you will be happy and content, live in harmony with your spouse, and be tolerant of others."

The beautiful lady in the hall thought for a moment and spoke softly.

"If there are any shortcomings, please discuss them with your husband. We will work together and help each other. I wish you happiness and a worry-free life."

The fourth sister, kneeling in the hall, listened to her mother's sweet words, which were all about her wish for happiness.

It was very different from his father's official and cold teachings.

The little girl sniffed with emotion through the red veil in front of her.

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu'er raised her fair wrist and took off the gold bracelet inlaid with gems that was fitting her skin as white as snow.

He put it on the bride's wrist.

"Mother doesn't have much to give you. This is the dowry I brought from my parents' home. I'm giving it to you now. I hope that Fourth Sister will have smooth sailing and a happy life in the future."

The groom didn't dare to look up. He didn't expect that this person was his mother-in-law.

The man, his hopes dashed, couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

He was close to her, and a faint fragrance drifted by her side, disturbing her mind and making it difficult to control her emotions.
