Chapter 226 Reaction
Never again!
Pei Zhichuan coldly pulled down the carriage curtain, and the guards driving the carriage immediately raised their whips.
The wheels rolled, kicking up dust.
Seeing that Lin Anyuan was still standing there, Qin the big guy approached with a fawning smile, "Boss, I heard that Madam sent over a lot of vermicelli again. How about we have hot pot today?"
Lin Anyuan glanced at him and said, "Go eat shit."
Qin Da Ge Zi choked for a moment, then immediately shamelessly leaned closer, "Boss, I know I was wrong last time, so please don't be angry with me anymore, okay? I've already changed."
Lin Anyuan turned and left.
Qin, the big guy, scratched his head blankly. "Has the boss forgiven me yet?"
Someone nearby chuckled, "Go eat some shit, maybe they'll forgive you."
"Damn it, you're just deliberately going against me."
Lin Anyuan returned to his room and, sure enough, saw a large package on the table with a thick letter on it.
Inside the box were several more letters.
Everyone in his family wrote him letters, and as Lin Anyuan read them one by one, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
"You're laughing so happily, has your wife written to you again?"
Suddenly, someone patted him on the back. Lin Anyuan immediately stopped smiling and said in a serious tone, "My lord, this is my room."
King Jing sat down on his stool with a sweeping motion and slammed his hand on the table, saying, "Your people are all mine, so why distinguish between yours and mine?"
Lin Anyuan: ...
Sometimes he really doesn't want to talk.
"Share half when you meet, so your friendship won't fall apart!" Prince Jing opened the package, which was full of food. Under Lin Anyuan's resentful gaze, he took some of his favorite foods and left.
Lin Anyuan looked at the remaining items and put them into his locked box. They were all easily preserved foods, which should be enough for him to eat until autumn.
...
...
Summer passes and autumn comes.
Autumn has gone again.
Another winter came, and King Jing's men offered a brilliant plan, capturing three more cities.
I heard that Imperial Censor He, who went to persuade them to surrender, was almost hung on the city gate as a public spectacle. In the end, the He family paid a ransom to release him.
Speaking of this, there's also the Third Young Master Pei. When he went to Jizhou for disaster relief, he was captured and only released after paying a ransom. He was tortured so much that he lost a lot of weight.
Arrogant! These rebels are far too arrogant.
Upon hearing this news, many women who admired Young Master Pei were practically grinding their teeth in anger.
The rebels deserve to be torn to pieces!
While this was happening, the surrounding barbaric small countries also quietly grew stronger and began to make small moves.
The Yu family went to the capital.
Upon hearing this news, Yu An, who had just returned, was summoned to the study.
“You have some nerve, daring to sneak into Ganzhou. If you get caught, our family doesn’t have a thousand taels of gold to ransom you.”
Lord Yu was furious. He only learned when he received the letter that Yu An had actually taken leave from the academy to go to Ganzhou.
Now that's Prince Jing's territory, if he doesn't release them, even if he had three heads and six arms, he wouldn't be able to save them.
He simply couldn't see through King Jing.
"I was wrong, Dad," Yu An obediently admitted his mistake.
"Then go to the ancestral hall, kneel down, and admit your mistake!"
Madam Yu brought in the soup and, upon hearing this, hurriedly advised, "Our son must have suffered on the journey. Even if you want to punish him, you should wait until he has recovered before doing so."
“Without rules, there can be no order. He is so willful because you spoil him. I’ve told you so many times, don’t just enter my study without permission.” Lord Yu frowned.
Yu An hurriedly said, "Mother, you don't need to plead for me anymore. I'll kneel down."
"I'm here to bring you soup. I can just leave if I have to."
Madam Yu put down the soup, and out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly noticed Yu An's waist. "By the way, An'er, wait a minute, where is your identity badge?"
When this was mentioned, a hint of embarrassment appeared on Yu An's serious face.
"Mother, I gave it away when I was in Ganzhou."
"What? Are you crazy, child? How can you give away something so important?" Madam Yu exclaimed in alarm.
"Do you know that thing is a gift for your future wife?"
Every male born of the Yu family has a nameplate symbolizing his identity at birth. This nameplate is made from a rare stone obtained by the Yu family's ancestor. When the son comes of age, it will be sent to his legal wife's family along with the betrothal gifts.
How can you just give it away like that?
"I know, Mother." Yu An's ears felt a little hot.
He didn't know why, but after only two days of contact, he had that kind of thought.
"You sent it to a woman?" Madam An suddenly paused, "An'er, you...you mean that?"
"You unfilial son! Do you even know what you're doing?!"
Lord Yu slammed his fist on the table in anger.
Seeing this, Madam Yu hurriedly pushed her son out, saying, "You should go and kneel in the ancestral hall right now."
"Madam, you should just spoil him!"
"That brat is infuriating! He came from such a poor, remote place. I can't even imagine what kind of job the girl he married would do. She wouldn't know how to socialize. In the long run, the couple would just fall out of love. It would have been better to stop it from the start!"
"Why did you stop me just now? Find out who he gave it to, and send someone to get it back right away!"
Madam Yu remained calm. "Don't rush things. Our son has always been steady and reliable. Maybe the person he's interested in isn't an ordinary person. Anyway, it's still early. We'll see when the time comes. Maybe his feelings will change over time."
"How long can a young person's affection last? It will change sooner or later. Why do you have to hurt your son's feelings so early?"
Madam Yu thought to herself, "Didn't you also have a woman you truly loved back then, and even gave her the nameplate? In the end, you still took the nameplate back and sent it to her house along with the betrothal gifts."
Madam Yu never believed in vows of eternal love or promises of marrying no one but him.
When faced with absolute self-interest, even true love can perish prematurely.
Lord Yu naturally thought of himself and coughed lightly, "Madam, you've worked hard all these years."
Madam Yu chuckled. "I'll go prepare some food for An'er. Don't worry, even if you invite me, I won't come into your study anymore."
"Madam, that's not what I meant!"
...
...
"Father, please let me explain, that's not what I meant!"
On the other side, Cai Lei from the Cai family managed to dodge the inkstone that was thrown at him with a nimble move.
What do you mean by "that's not what you meant"?
It was just a trip to Ganzhou, wasn't it?
Cai Lei was on the verge of tears. His father was truly heartless; wasn't he afraid that if this inkstone came crashing down on him, he would be turned into an idiot?
"You brat, you've finally decided to come back?"
Upon hearing the sound, Cai Lei immediately became obedient, and even Cai's father, who had just hit his son, straightened his clothes.
"grandfather."
"father."
The visitor was Cai Zhengyang, the head of the Cai family.
