After saying that, he grabbed Hua Fushu's wrist, pulled her away, and his movements were a bit rude.

Hua Fushu struggled and cursed Ye Zelin. Sanqiao chased after him in a hurry, fearing that Ye Zelin would do something bad to her.

Madam Ouyang sighed and said, "This child doesn't know how to be grateful."

Ye Shiheng said, "I don't know now, but I will know in the future. I won't be wrong. Hua'er doesn't have the demeanor of a lady from a noble family. She is truly loyal and righteous. Lin'er needs a good partner and a good wife who can fight alongside him and support each other."

Dugu Lanxi suddenly looked at Ye Yunlu, and Ye Yunlu also looked at her. There was a rare tenderness in his dark eyes. He raised his hand and gently embraced Dugu Lanxi.

Ruhuan sneered, her face full of contempt. Hua Fushu was definitely not a good match for her brother. Only women like the youngest daughter of the Lu family and the legitimate daughter of Prince Qinghe could be a match for her brother and spend their lives together.

Ye Zelin dragged Hua Fushu to Penglai Residence. Hua Fushu shook him off and pushed him away, glaring at him fiercely with her round almond-shaped eyes.

Ye Zelin wasn't angry that she hadn't returned all day. He simply warned her, "I promised not to care about anything you do, and I have no interest in meddling in your affairs. But you made my parents search for you all day through the streets of the sealed-off city, and you're even more wrong for disrespecting them. Father is a general, and he has so many important military and political duties every day. For our marriage, he took six days off, and today he took an extra day off because of you. Every extra day means more fatigue for him. Hua Fushu, do you think disappearing is fun? You're only satisfied when your whole family is worried and at a loss for what to do about you, right?"

Hua Fushu said, "Did I ask you to find me? Wherever I go, it has nothing to do with you and the Ye family! If it weren't for you, if it weren't for your father, how could I have married into the Ye family? You and your son are in cahoots with each other, harming me. I am being polite by not turning the Ye family upside down."

Ye Zelin was furious, "You!"

Hua Fushu added, "If you continue to meddle in other people's business, I will make your Ye family a turmoil, with no peace for everyone!"

Hua Fushu flicked his sleeves and left.

Ye Zelin sneered, "Why would I care about you?"

Sanqiao was in the Penglai courtyard, and she had watched the entire quarrel between Hua Fushu and Ye Zelin.

She suddenly regretted not persuading Hua Fushu to come back earlier, causing the general's family to worry. However, her girl's mood was also very important. After weighing the pros and cons, she put Hua Fushu's mood first, and that feeling of regret disappeared.

Hua Fushu took Sanqiao out of Penglai Residence and arrived at Feiyuan, where she pushed open the door of the guest room where she had originally stayed.

She already lived under the same roof with Ye Zelin, and she didn't want to live in the same house with him.

When her parents return to Su Nian, she will definitely move out.

It's already dawn.

Ye Zelin walked out of Penglai Residence and Madam Ouyang came to meet him. Ye Zelin bowed and saluted. Madam Ouyang said, "Zelin, I just received a letter from your uncle, asking you to bring Huaer to Wuyin in a few days."

Ye Zelin said, "That's right. My great aunt is old and in poor health. It's a pity that she couldn't come to the ceremony. As a descendant, it's my duty to visit her. Mother, I'm returning home today. After meeting my father-in-law and mother-in-law, I'll talk to Fushu about going to Wuyin."

Madam Ouyang nodded and asked, "Have the flowers bloomed yet?"

Ye Zelin said, "I lost my temper yesterday and went to sleep in the courtyard."

Madam Ouyang gave some instructions to A Yu, who then turned and went to Feiyuan.

Madam Ouyang instructed her son on some matters concerning his return home.

Not long after, A Yu came back and found that the young lady was missing.

Madam Ouyang was anxious and hurried to the flying courtyard.

Ye Zelin laughed, "You can be angry, but they are still your parents. You don't even want to see them? Forget it, it's better to be polite."

Ye Zelin returned to Penglai Residence and changed into a tea-colored round-necked, straight-hem robe, looking refined and calm.

As I approached Feiyuan, I saw my mother pacing in the courtyard. Looking at the guest room where Hua Fushu had stayed, I walked over and said, "Mother, I'm afraid Fushu won't be there."

Madam Ouyang held her son's hand and said earnestly, "Even if the flowers don't go, you have to go anyway, for the sake of face.

Ye Zelin bowed and replied yes.

Outside the city, new leaves are sprouting in the mountains and forests, the clear water is gurgling, the sun is shining brightly, and the breeze is gentle and pleasant.

Pedestrians were coming in and out of the city gate in groups of three or four. Ye Zelin was helping a woman walk towards the carriage.

This woman was none other than Madam Qidie. She wore a dark blue skirt with a pattern of eight-treasure chrysanthemums, a crimson jacket with wide sleeves, and a red cape with scattered flowers. She had her hair in a high bun and a Dushan jade hairpin with a pair of crabapple blossoms in her hair. Although her cheeks were powdered and her lips painted red, she still looked a little ill.

Madam Qidie said, "Good boy, you have heard everything I told you."

Ye Zelin nodded.

Madam Qidie added, "I'd like to trouble you, my dear son-in-law, to take care of my bastard. Don't be polite if you shouldn't."

She sighed and continued, "It's all my fault. I let her run wild. Your father-in-law and uncle can't control her either. I have to ask you, my dear son-in-law, to take some care of her."

Hua Feimo was wearing a smoky-gray dark robe. He was tall and handsome. When he saw Madam Qidie coming, he walked over.

He glanced at Ye Zelin, then took Madam Qidie's other hand to support her. Ye Zelin took back his hand and stood on both sides of Madam Qidie with Hua Feimo.

Hua Feimo helped his mother get on the carriage and said a few goodbye words to him.

Hua Mingqian, who was standing in the distance with his back to the crowd, wiped the tears from his eyes with his sleeve before turning around and walking over.

Ye Zelin bowed and called out "Master Taishan".

Hua Mingqian nodded and smiled, then looked back. He felt a little disappointed as the expected figure was still not there at the city gate.
