"Haha! Well, aren't we talking about Chi Yong and Ye Zi?" Tian An knew he was in the wrong, so he tried to change the subject with a flattering look and begged for forgiveness.
It had been so long since the incident, so Zhao Yiming naturally wouldn't bother with her anymore.
He hugged her tenderly and said, "Didn't I tell you that Madam has the final say on matters in the mansion?"
"Isn't Chi Yong your secret guard? I have to discuss this with you." Tian An said with a flattering look on his face.
Seeing her flattering look, Zhao Yiming said generously: "What's mine is yours, Madam."
Tian An was immediately satisfied and said, "My husband is the best."
He walked towards Chi Xiao without looking back, "Your master has allowed you to get married. Before the team leaves, go and ask the village chief for marriage.
Although you are a secret guard of the Duke's Mansion, you are hired as a wife or a concubine. As long as I am here, I will not allow you to wrong Miss Ye. "
Hearing this, Ye Zi was so excited that she was about to kowtow to Tian An, "Thank you, madam, thank you, sir."
Tian An personally pulled her up and said, "Alright, stop kowtowing so easily next time." He then looked at Chi Xiao and said, "Why are you still kneeling? Hurry up and propose marriage! I'll give you one stick of incense. If you delay the team's departure, you will be held accountable."
Chi Xiao was completely overwhelmed by this sudden surprise. It was not until Ye Zi happily helped him stand up and pulled him out that he came to his senses. He looked at Tian An with embarrassment, "Um, Madam, but, but I, I haven't prepared anything..."
"Hey! Why didn't you tell me earlier? Your wife is here, how can I let you go empty-handed?" Then he took out a silver ingot and a gold hairpin from his bag and handed them to him, "Just propose marriage for now, and we can make up for the rest later."
She turned around and took out a gold bracelet and gave it to Ye Zi, "This is my engagement gift to you."
Ye Zi looked at the golden bracelet and refused it repeatedly, "Madam, Ye Zi can't accept it. It's too expensive."
Tian An simply took the bracelet and put it on her: "My husband and I are also Chi Yong's in-laws. Just treat this as a meeting with your in-laws."
As he spoke, he kept urging the two of them, "Time waits for no one, both of you stop dawdling and hurry up."
"Thank you, madam, and thank you, master." Chi Xiao walked out of the door and turned back to bow in the direction of Tian An and Zhao Yiming, then pulled Ye Zi and ran towards the village.
They didn't have anything here to begin with. As soon as Chi Yong and Ye Zi left, Deng Xue came out with a bundle on her back. "Madam, Master, everything is packed. We can leave now."
Zhao Yiming nodded, walked forward, took Tian An's hand, and walked out the door.
In order to pick up Tian An, he specially moved his luxurious carriage over.
When they arrived, Tian Mingwu and An Wan were already waiting outside the carriage.
Seeing this, Tian An immediately stepped forward and grabbed his mother's hand. Seeing that her hand was not cold, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Mom, why don't you go to the carriage and wait for us?"
An Wan took her hand and said, "We'll have to take the carriage all the way back! Mother wanted to stand outside for a while before we leave."
No matter how good the carriage is, it will be uncomfortable to sit for a long time. Tian An nodded and said, "Then I will stay with my mother and stand for a while! We will get on last."
At this moment, Shen Cheng came to report, "General, the troops have been assembled and can set off at any time."
The mother and daughter looked at each other, smiled at each other, and with the help of Deng Xue, they supported each other and got into the carriage.
After the women were settled, Zhao Yiming and Tian Mingwu mounted their horses and stood on the left and right to protect the carriage.
Everything was ready, and Tian Mingwu shouted, "Let's go..."
The team started to move, and the villagers of Yaowang Valley stood on both sides to see them off.
"General, officers, ladies, come and play again later!"
"Have a safe journey..."
After leaving Medicine King Valley, Tian An kept sticking her head out to look back. Zhao Yiming saw this and directly reached out to tuck her head back in. "I'll tell you when they get here."
An Wan asked curiously, "Why do you keep looking back?"
Seeing An Wan's question, Tian An took the opportunity to hug her arm and entangled herself with her, saying proudly, "I acted as a matchmaker today. Chi Xiao went to the village chief's house to propose marriage. I just want to know if he can successfully win her heart."
Hearing this, An Wan also became curious, "It's that girl named Ye Zi! She's a good girl, hardworking, and kind-hearted. Whoever marries her will be blessed."
Tian An nodded and agreed, "Of course not. That girl is pretty and I liked her the moment I saw her. Especially since she is so infatuated with Chi Xiao, so I decisively told Chi Xiao to act quickly..."
It has to be said that no matter what era, gossip is always a woman's favorite. Once the mother and daughter start talking about gossip, they can't stop, and they even pull the usually aloof Deng Xue into the camp.
Even though Deng Xue doesn't talk, she knows a lot. She told the mother and daughter a lot of gossip about Chi Xiao and Ye Zi!
The mother and daughter laughed the whole time.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried horse hooves outside. The three women looked at each other, sat down by the car window, lifted the curtain to look.
Sure enough, Ye Zi was nestled in Chi Xiao's arms with a shy look on her face, and the two of them came riding together.
Chi Xiao rode his horse to Zhao Yiming's side, bowed his head and saluted, "Master, I am late."
Zhao Yiming hadn't spoken yet! Tian An hurriedly said, "It's not too late, it's not too late."
Then he looked at Ye Zi and said, "It's cold outside, come and sit in the carriage."
"Thank you, ma'am, but I'd better wait until the team stops to rest before I get on! If I get on the carriage now, it will delay the journey." Ye Zi said sensibly.
If she wanted to get on the carriage, the carriage had to stop. The carriage the lady was sitting in was at the front, and once it stopped, the rest of the team had to stop as well. Although the lady was kind-hearted, she couldn't bring trouble to the team because of herself, and she couldn't hold Chi Xiao back.
Chi Xiao also said, "Thank you for your concern, Madam. However, the overall situation should be prioritized. I will take good care of Ye Zi."
After saying that, he bowed to Tian An and Zhao Yiming, then took Ye Zi back to his post.
Seeing this, the three women lowered the curtain and returned to the car to continue chatting about the gossip between the two.
"This girl is indeed sensible."
Tian An nodded, "It seems that I have a talent for matchmaking! I succeeded on my first try."
Then, she looked at Deng Xue and said, "How is it? Xiaoxue'er, do you have someone you like? Tell me and I'll make the decision for you!"
Deng Xue blushed and stammered, "No, no."
When Tian An saw her expression, he thought it was impossible for her to believe him. "Stop talking nonsense and tell the truth."
Deng Xue: “…”
