Qi Jiating looked at his mother with a mixture of anger and annoyance and said, "It's all because you're too greedy! I knew that if Qiuqiu gave so many things, it couldn't be anything good!"
Old Madam Qi comforted Qi Jiating, saying, "Jiating, things have come to this, we should let go. You've already remarried, even before her. We haven't lost out!"
Qi Jiating: "Oh! Mother, don't mention it! If it weren't for you, how could I have gotten together with Xiao Zhenzhen?"
Madam Qi: "That's not right! You two were childhood sweethearts, deeply in love. Who knew that something like that would happen later?"
Qi Jia slapped his head in frustration.
Old Madam Qi could only say some nice things. She patted Qi Jiating and said, "Actually, things are not bad as they are now. Jiating, you see, no matter what, Qiuqiu left us some money, which can be considered as fulfilling her filial duty. Let them get married."
Qi Jia was so angry that he overturned the table.
"Nothing's good? No! I'm not good at all!"
Madam Qi said, "Why get so worked up? Don't upset yourself. By the way, I've heard many people say that the wine at this banquet has the effect of prolonging life. I'm already so old, I also want to enjoy it for a few more years. In a few days, I'll take the wedding invitation to their wedding!"
Qi Jiating glared angrily at Old Madam Qi and said, "Go! Go!"
Looking at the scattered fragments of the wedding invitations on the floor, Old Madam Qi said, "The wedding invitations are gone. How am I supposed to go?"
Madam Qi nervously picked up the wedding invitations from the ground and pieced them together little by little.
"Thank goodness, thank goodness, not a single one is missing. They're all still here."
Qi Jia said angrily, "Mother, I think you're completely unreasonable!"
A gust of wind blew by, and the fragments of the wedding invitations on the ground were swept away with a whoosh.
Old Madam Qi quickly ran after it, shouting, "My wedding invitation! My wedding invitation! Don't run away—"
Qi Jiating ignored his mother and ran outside alone.
Outside the princess's residence, it was bustling with activity as many people came to present Xu Ruyun's wedding gifts.
Grand Tutor Chen greeted the guests from the side.
When Qi Jiating arrived, he found that those who were usually enemies of Grand Tutor Chen had now become friends with him, and were now fraternizing with him.
"Grand Tutor Chen, congratulations! This is my congratulatory gift! I must come to your residence to celebrate with a cup of wine!"
Grand Tutor Chen: "Definitely, definitely! I'll bring my whole family!"
Chen Taifu's political enemies excitedly grasped his hand and asked, "Really? Can we really bring our families?"
"Of course! You're welcome!"
"That's wonderful! I was just thinking about how to pack some for my family. Grand Tutor Chen is truly magnanimous! I will never make things difficult for you again, and I will treat you as my own brother from now on! How about we become sworn brothers now!"
"Pah! You snobbish scoundrel!"
When Chen Taifu and the others turned around, they saw Qi Jiating looking indignant.
Grand Tutor Chen: "Let's ignore him! Let's go have some tea!"
Qi Jiating became even angrier when he saw that Grand Tutor Chen was ignoring him.
In a fit of anger, he tore down the red curtain outside the princess's residence.
Qi Jiating: "Chen Jiahang! Let me tell you, Yun'er is my wife! As long as I'm alive, you can forget about marrying her!"
Before Grand Tutor Chen could make a move, the group of people around him quickly restrained Qi Jiating.
"You dare to ruin Grand Tutor Chen's wedding? You don't want to live anymore!"
A group of people stared at Qi Jiating with eyes full of rage, as if they wanted to devour him alive.
Qi Jiating retorted, "What business is it of yours if I ruin their marriage?"
Chirp came over.
Everyone bowed and paid homage to the princess from all nations.
【What does it have to do with them? Of course it's their important business! So many people are waiting for the feast. If you dare to ruin their good time, you'll naturally anger them.】
Someone came to complain: "Princess Wanguo, it was he who tried to obstruct Madam Xu's wedding!"
Qi Jiating looked at Qiuqiu and began to plead, "Qiuqiu, I'm your father! You can't abandon me!"
Chiu Chiu said, "My father? Didn't you already write a letter severing ties with him? My current father is Grand Tutor Chen."
The Qi family was so angry they vomited blood.
Grand Tutor Chen listened with delight as the chirping chirped "Dad."
Chiu Chiu: "No one, no matter who, is allowed to interfere with my mother's marriage! If anyone does, then everyone will miss out on the delicious wine I've prepared!"
Upon hearing this, everyone volunteered, saying, "Princess, we are willing to monitor him and prevent him from doing anything destructive!"
"I do!"
"I'd love to!"
Qi Jiating looked at everyone.
Among the crowd were inevitably one or two of his former friends.
But now, it's rare to see everyone so united, with a single goal in resisting Qi Jiating's sabotage.
Chiu Chiu: "Okay! Thank you everyone!"
To guard against Qi Jiating, the group took all the money and valuables from him, then rented a carriage and took him to a remote mountain area hundreds of kilometers away.
In that case, he definitely won't come to ruin the wedding.
By the time he returns, Chen Taifu and Xu Ruyun's child will probably already be born.
Chiu Chiu's mother's marriage received unanimous support and protection from prominent families in the capital and high-ranking officials in the court.
Another marriage has caused someone sleepless nights with worry.
Princess Ningxin reached marriageable age, and her parents arranged a political marriage for her. However, Princess Ningxin did not like her fiancé.
On one occasion, Princess Ningxin entered the palace and met Xie Ju'an, a promising young scholar who had just been selected as the top scholar in the imperial examination.
Xie Ju'an was elegant and handsome.
Princess Ningxin immediately took a liking to Xie Ju'an.
She tried to win Xie Ju'an's favor, but Xie Ju'an remained unmoved by her advances.
Princess Ningxin wants the Emperor to grant her a marriage.
However, the Emperor said that Xie Ju'an already had someone he loved, and marriage could not be forced.
The emperor of the Dragon Kingdom is very enlightened and never forces any couple into a forced relationship.
However, after inquiring throughout the entire capital, Princess Ningxin found that only Xie Ju'an possessed a good temperament and character, and was of similar age to her.
Xie Ju'an was her most desired marriage partner.
But he actually had someone else in his heart.
Who is the person he loves?
After hearing about Madam Xu's wedding, Princess Ningxin had an idea.
I heard that Xie Ju'an has a good relationship with Madam Xu's son, so he will definitely attend this wedding.
Princess Ningxin asked someone to get a wedding invitation, gave a generous gift to Madam Xu, and then waited for the wedding to arrive.
As for the rest, she has her own plans.
Xie Ju'an, however, was at home staring blankly at a portrait of a woman.
