Extra Chapter 5: Qi Lingzhou
Late spring
After Qi Lingzhou returned to Yanjing from Qin State's Qianshu Tower, he went straight to the inner residence of the Qi family in Yanjing.
As soon as I stepped into the house, I heard the voices of several women talking and laughing from afar.
"Yunxiao, there are guests at home." Qi Lingzhou asked
Yunxiao said: "Listening to the sound, it seems that Madam Shen has arrived."
Qi Lingzhou was delighted and strode towards the front hall of the Qi family. The sounds of talking and laughing were getting closer and closer.
There were four people sitting in the hall.
There were Madam Yu from the Qi family, Madam Zhao from the Shen family, Madam Zhou from the Bai family, and a girl who was about sixteen or seventeen years old.
The girl was wearing a light green gauze skirt and her black hair was like jade. The faint light reflected on her face, making her skin look as white as snow.
Under the long, thick eyelashes, a pair of dark, clear eyes quietly looked at the girl who came in.
Seeing Qi Lingzhou coming, the girl tightened her dress slightly and lowered her head.
When Qi Lingzhou came in, he saw that the girl's cheeks were blushing.
Seeing her shyness, Qi Lingzhou's lips curled up slightly.
He politely walked up to the few people and saluted Mrs. Bai who was in the high seat.
"Meet the wife of Ningyuan Marquis."
Seeing that the young man was so polite, Mrs. Bai's joyful eyes fell on Qi Lingzhou and scanned him.
He is indeed a handsome man.
"Young Master Qi is too polite."
"Weiwei, come and meet Brother Qi." Mrs. Bai waved to Bai Wei.
Bai Wei then stood up and walked in front of Qi Lingzhou with pursed lips.
"Bai Wei, greetings to the Young Master of the Qi family."
Qi Lingzhou lowered his eyes, and the two of them looked at each other.
Bai Wei quickly lowered her head, her face flushed.
Qi Lingzhou: "What a coincidence! I've met this young lady from the Bai family before."
"Have you seen it?" Yu was a little curious.
"This Madam Bai is visiting our Qi family for the first time. How could you two have met before?"
Qi Lingzhou curled his lips, glanced at the girl and said, "Sister Bai Wei, there's no need to be polite. Since you're in our Qi family, just treat it like your own."
"Treat it as your own home?" Bai Wei was a little shy.
"Weiwei." Mrs. Bai pulled Bai Wei over.
"Why do you seem to have lost your soul after seeing the young master of the Qi family?"
Bai Wei sat down in front of Mrs. Bai.
Today, it was she who asked Mrs. Bai to visit the Bai family.
I thought I would never see Qi Lingzhou, but I finally saw him.
She sat in a chair, holding the tea and took a sip.
But he saw the purple-clothed youth opposite him, his eyes fixed on him.
Qi Lingzhou said: "When I came to Yanjing, it was thanks to Sister Bai Wei that I was able to save my life."
“It’s really a surprise to see you now.”
Yu put down the teacup in her hand and looked at Bai Wei.
"You mean, this girl from the Bai family saved your life?"
Qi Lingzhou nodded: "I saved him."
"That's a coincidence."
The corners of Yu's lips curled up and she looked at Qi Lingzhou.
"Since your sister Weiwei is visiting our Qi family compound for the first time, why don't you take her for a walk around our Qi family."
"Yes, mother."
After Qi Lingzhou stood up, Bai Wei also stood up.
The two of them left the front hall and arrived at the Qi family's garden.
Qi Lingzhou turned around and looked at Bai Wei with a smile.
"This isn't the first time we've met, so why are you blushing?"
"The legitimate daughter of the Ningyuan Marquis? I didn't expect you to be from the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion."
Bai Wei looked up and saw the purple-robed youth looking at her. She raised her lips slightly and said, "Is it disappointing?"
Qi Lingzhou shook his head: "No, I guessed it a long time ago."
Bai Wei said: "Since you guessed it, why don't you come look for me?"
Qi Lingzhou walked towards her step by step, and his oppressive aura made Bai Wei's heart beat wildly.
"How do you want me to repay you for saving my life?"
Bai Wei asked, "Young Master Qi, how do you want to return it?"
Qi Lingzhou said: "I'll listen to you."
Bai Wei: "I'm afraid my mother has taken a liking to you today and probably wants you to be our son-in-law."
Qi Lingzhou smiled and said, "Today, you did it on purpose."
He turned around and said, "Wait for me when we get back to the Bai family today."
After saying this, Qi Lingzhou turned around and left the Qi Family Garden.
At sunset, Bai Wei and Madam Bai left the Qi Mansion.
"Mother, what do you think of the young master of the Qi family?"
Madam Bai said, "The young master of the Qi family has a special status, but he is also very handsome. Mother has never seen such a handsome young man."
"If you like him, mother can discuss it with Madam Qi."
Bai Wei pursed her lips and lowered her head.
"By the way, how are you getting along with the young master of the Qi family?"
Bai Wei said, "He told me to wait for him peacefully at the Bai family."
"A year ago, I rescued him once and took care of him for nearly two months. I had no idea he was the son of the richest man."
Madam Bai said, "You are the daughter of the Marquis's family. If he has feelings for you, it would be wonderful if you two could become husband and wife."
Three days later.
Bai Wei was dressing up in her boudoir in the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion.
The maid came running over.
"Miss, the Qi family has sent the betrothal gifts, and Master Qi is in the front hall."
"Really?" Bai Wei was a little incredulous.
The maid nodded: "Seriously."
"Qin'er, help me dress up."
Qin'er nodded and gave Bai Wei the most fashionable makeup in Yanjing.
Bai Wei changed into clean clothes again.
He was holding up the hem of his skirt and walking to the front hall of the Bai family with his maid when he heard Qi Lingzhou's clear and pleasant voice coming from the front hall.
"You're welcome, Madam Bai. I've admired Wei Wei for a long time, and I've come here today to propose marriage."
"It would be my honor to marry a woman like Weiwei."
Madam Bai laughed and said, "Mr. Qi, what are you talking about? It is a blessing for our Weiwei to marry into your Qi family."
Bai Wei walked in from outside the hall and met Qi Lingzhou's eyes.
He was still the same as always, dressed in a gorgeous purple suit and with a high ponytail, so bright that people couldn't take their eyes off him.
When Madam Bai saw Bai Wei approaching, she immediately said, "Weiwei, the young master of the Qi family is here."
Seeing Bai Wei embarrassed, Qi Lingzhou stood up.
"Madam Bai, since the betrothal gifts have been delivered and the Qi family has important matters to attend to, I will leave first."
His eyes fell on Bai Wei: "Sister Weiwei, if you are willing to marry me, I will only marry you and not take concubines."
The man's gentle voice fell, and he turned and left Ningyuan Marquis Mansion.
"The young master of the Qi family is indeed different." Madam Bai sighed.
"Weiwei, do you like him?"
Bai Wei said, "Mother, if I didn't like him, I wouldn't have let you go to the Qi family."
"Okay, okay, that's good."
"You two are a match made in heaven."
The next day, Yu brought Zhao to discuss the marriage of Bai Wei and Qi Lingzhou with Mrs. Zhou of the Bai family.
The elders of the clan were invited to come, and according to the birth dates of the two, the wedding date was set for the sixth day of next month.
"The sixth day of the fourth month is a good omen."
"That's settled."
…
The Qi family was holding a wedding and sent invitations to all the major families in Yanjing.
When Su Yuheng knew Qi Lingzhou's wedding date, she prepared gifts early.
On the day before the sixth day of April, the head of the Qi family returned from Jiangnan and arranged a wedding for Qi Lingzhou with Yu.
However, no one from the second or third branch of the Qi family was invited, not even the old lady of the Qi family. Only other respected people in the clan and the head of the Qi family were invited.
Qi Lingzhou's name is now on the family tree, and the family tree is used when he gets married and has children.
Early in the morning, the Qi family, the richest family, had already started decorating their house with lights and decorations.
Qi Lingzhou put on his groom's clothes, got on his horse, and left the Qi family's house to pick up his bride.
As soon as I left the Qi family, I saw Su Yuheng and Huo Xingzhi bringing a little meat ball into the house.
The little meatball smacked his lips, hugged his legs, and called him "Uncle".
Qi Lingzhou looked at Ruize with a smile in his eyes.
"Your uncle is going to marry your aunt, are you happy?"
"In the future, I will give you a little sister."
"Happy." Ruize said softly, and was then carried by Su Yuheng.
"You little guy, don't miss your uncle's auspicious time."
"Sister." Qi Lingzhou looked at Su Yuheng.
Su Yuheng sighed: "It's really not easy to see you get married."
"However, at least it has come to fruition."
Qi Lingzhou jumped onto his horse and said with a smile, "Sister, do you know why I came to Yanjing?"
Su Yuheng shook his head: "Is it because of that girl from the Bai family?"
Qi Lingzhou shook his head: "Not entirely, it's also for you guys."
“Home is where a person’s heart is.”
"Part of my heart is with the Shen family, part is with Bai Wei, and some is with the Qi family."
"To be safe, I chose Yanjing."
After the young man finished speaking, he patted his horse's back, turned around and left Qi Mansion and headed towards Bai Mansion.
After arriving at the Bai family, Qi Lingzhou saw Bai Wei, wearing a veil and wedding dress, being led out by the matchmaker.
He got out of the carriage and walked towards Bai Wei step by step.
When the broad hand held Bai Wei's slender fingers, Bai Wei was slightly stunned.
"What's wrong?" Qi Lingzhou asked in a low voice.
Bai Wei said: "It was too sudden. I'm a little nervous."
Qi Lingzhou curled his lips and smiled: "I'm here, no need to worry."
He led the person forward two steps, then picked up Bai Wei from the ground and walked towards the sedan chair.
The sound of stringed instruments gradually rose.
Qi Lingzhou, dressed in wedding clothes, jumped on his horse and headed towards the Qi Mansion with the wedding party.
Night.
The entire Qi family was still brightly lit.
After drinking a little wine, Qi Lingzhou went to the bridal chamber.
The candlelight in the room flickered slightly, and the girl on the bed nervously pulled her dress tightly.
When she heard someone coming, she subconsciously called out.
"Azhou."
Qi Lingzhou's heart skipped a beat, and he thought back to the two months he spent with him.
He walked over slowly and lifted Bai Wei's veil, and what came into his sight was a stunningly beautiful face.
Looking at the breathtakingly handsome boy in front of her, Bai Wei was extremely nervous.
Qi Lingzhou said with a smile: "We are already husband and wife, why can't Weiwei let go?"
He leaned over and whispered in her ear: "For you, I came all the way from Qingyang to Yanjing City."
"Let's have a drink together." Bai Wei said nervously.
Qi Lingzhou nodded, walked to the Eight Immortals Table, and picked up the two cups of wine.
He handed a cup to Bai Wei.
Under the candlelight, the two drank the wedding wine.
Qi Lingzhou carefully reached out and held Bai Wei in his arms.
"Next time you want to come see me, you don't have to ask your mother to cover for you."
"You...you know." Bai Wei smiled.
Qi Lingzhou said: "Of course I saw it."
"Since we are married, we must love each other without a doubt."
