"Can't afford to lose?"
The man glanced at her indifferently.
"No, it was indeed I who lost, and the lord won."
She put away the chess basket and looked up to see him walking away with the chessboard, which left her stunned.
What kind of person is he? Did he marry her just to piss her off?
The fox's tail finally showed up.
--
After the chess game, on the day of the third day's return, Yan Funing prepared the gifts and prepared to go back to her parents' home alone.
When they reached the gate of the mansion, they saw someone directing Fu Jiang and others to load the gifts into the car.
"Sir, would you like to go back with me?" she asked directly.
"Yeah." He responded indifferently.
Yan Funing smiled with the corners of her lips.
I'm going back home today, so I can't quarrel.
The couple boarded the carriage and traveled in silence all the way to the Duke's Mansion.
The Yan family was waiting in the front hall early, including the Chengwang family of three and Yan Yingying's family of three.
"The second young lady and her husband are back!" Mother Tong announced happily.
The old Duke said loudly, "Please come in quickly."
It's only been a day, but it feels like a long time.
The old duke stood up after stretching his neck and seeing Yan Funing walking towards him cheerfully.
As soon as he stood up, everyone sitting in the front hall stood up as well.
"Little girl, come to your grandfather quickly." The old Duke waved at Yan Funing.
Yan Funing took a few quick steps and affectionately took her grandfather's arm: "Grandpa, I miss you."
After saying that, he leaned his head against his grandfather's shoulder and rubbed it hard.
This caused the old Duke to burst into laughter: "Is my precious granddaughter doing well in the Fu family?"
"It's okay." Yan Funing said playfully.
Hearing this, the old Duke felt relieved. When he turned to look at Fu Ciyi, his eyes were filled with intimidation.
Fu Ciyi acted as if he hadn't seen it and gave the gifts to the old Duke and Madam Yan first.
Yan Funing then called Old Madam Yan, "Grandma."
Everyone sat down.
After receiving the gift and being called Grandmother, Old Lady Yan nodded, but she still had to put on a show, so she said, "This is what a talented man and a beautiful woman look like."
"Dad, Mom, Uncle, Aunt, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Third Uncle, Third Aunt..."
Yan Funing called people one by one, and Fu Ciyi took the gifts from his followers and handed them to the people present.
Everyone received gifts and the atmosphere in the hall was very harmonious.
When everyone was drinking tea, Long Xu quietly pulled Yan Funing's sleeve and the two of them left the main hall.
"When will you draw me a picture of a crossbow?"
Yan Funing shook her head: "I won't draw today."
Yan Bojian saw Fu Ciyi staring at the two people outside the door with a heavy look in his eyes. He hurried out. After hearing Long Xu's request, he also said, "Look at what day it is today. You can just use the picture in front of you. And remember, don't show it to others."
"I understand." Long Xu had no choice but to give up.
Everyone chatted in the front hall for a while, and Yan Ruwei and Yan Dairou suggested going back to their rooms first.
After the two left, Yan Funing wanted to go back to her own courtyard, so she also left the front hall.
On the way, I heard the voices of two people in front of me talking.
Yan Ruwei said, "My second brother-in-law is so handsome. He wears a red brocade robe, and his skin is whiter than that of most women."
Yan Dairou said: "That is to say, even the lips are very rosy."
When Yan Funing heard this, she felt a sweet taste in her heart, thinking that the man was indeed good-looking.
Yan Dairou covered her lips and asked, "Third sister, how does it feel to be kissed by a man like my second brother-in-law?"
Yan Ruwei whispered, "Fourth sister, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Dairou said softly, "I finally understand why Second Sister didn't choose Prince Chi, but chose Master Fu instead. From what I've seen today, Master Fu is indeed better looking than Prince Chi. When he brought the gift just now, his hand was truly beautiful."
"Fourth sister is coveting my husband?"
Yan Funing asked loudly and quickly chased after him.
Yan Dairou knew she was in the wrong and quickly begged for mercy: "Second sister, I was just joking."
"joke?"
Yan Fu glanced at Cai Yu.
Caiyu understood and immediately slapped Yan Dairou in the face.
Yan Dairou covered her mouth and ran away crying: "I'm going to tell my parents."
"You go and sue."
Yan Funing was already angry, and she never expected that while someone was delivering a return gift, the woman running away in front of her would take a fancy to him.
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the front hall.
At this moment in the front hall, the men all followed the old Duke to the East Garden study. Old Madam Yan was no longer there, and the women around were still chatting.
Yan Dairou came back crying: "I just made a joke, and my second sister ordered someone to beat me. Mother, aunt, you have to make the decision for me!"
The Third Madam, Mrs. Miao, looked at Hong Qingyi and said, "Sister-in-law, even if Dai Rou was wrong, Fu Ning can't just hit someone without permission."
Hong Qingyi said calmly, "My son has always been sensible, there must be a reason."
Yan Funing walked in slowly: "Caiyu, you talk."
Caiyu agreed and told the whole story in detail.
Everyone present shook their heads when they heard this, especially the Third Madam, whose expression changed several times.
"My sister and her husband just got married, and Fourth Sister has already taken a fancy to him. If this gets out, wouldn't it be embarrassing?" Yan Yingying said coldly, "It's because my sister is soft-hearted. If it were me..."
She glared at Yan Dairou: "Watch out for yourself!"
Yan Dairou cried even more sadly.
Hong Qingyi said in a deep voice: "Ms. Miu, take good care of your daughter and don't let her put unnecessary thoughts on my son-in-law."
After saying that, Han Wei's eyes also swept towards Zhang.
Zhang quickly tried to smooth things over, "Yes, Third Sister-in-law, please listen carefully." Then she smiled and said, "After all, this is a family scandal that should not be made public. Let's just call it a day."
"Yes, don't tell anyone. I'll go back to Beiyuan and teach Dai Rou a lesson."
