Now that Xiao Yi has finished his wedding, the four sons of the Xiao family have all found their husbands, leaving only the youngest daughter, Xiao Lanlan, who has not yet gotten married.
Next, it was time to meet with Madam Su to discuss the marriage of Su Yanqing and Xiao Lanlan. Xiao Lanlan had studied in the girls' school for half a year and was now adept at managing the mansion. She was also adept at flower arranging, drinking tea, playing chess and lighting incense.
Even if she doesn't completely meet Xiao's mother's highest standards for her future daughter-in-law, she has also met the qualified standards she expected. Su Yanqing is already an adult, and Xiao Lanlan is already eighteen years old, so there is no need to delay any further.
Good things should not be wasted, so as to avoid unexpected changes!
Xiao Yi was in high spirits because of the happy event. The next morning when he brought his new wife to offer tea to his parents, the corners of his mouth were harder to suppress than AK.
It seemed that he had a wonderful wedding night.
Now, the Xiao family is becoming more and more lively. Pingan and An have just turned one month old. The two little guys are changing every day. They are now plump and white. With such good genes from the Xiao family, they will definitely be handsome and beautiful when they grow up.
Moreover, the two little ones are very obedient and easy to take care of. Unless they are hungry, just woke up, or have peed or defecated, they will not cry easily. This makes Zhou, as a mother, very pleased.
Every day, Xiao's mother stayed at home to take care of her during the confinement period. When she had nothing to do, she would hold her two little grandchildren and play with them. The guys were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling every day.
Now that the eldest and the third child have also started their own families, she dare not even think about how happy she will be if she has a few more little ones in the future.
By then, when the business grows bigger and more people are hired, she can completely get rid of it and just stay at home with the Xiao couple to enjoy their grandchildren.
We had a wedding banquet yesterday and set off firecrackers all day. I didn’t sleep well, so I was a little fussy yesterday and kept crying.
…
Three months later, Ye Shu was finally taken back from the temple by Ye Congwen.
But during the three months she spent in the temple, she did not have a single comfortable day, because she never realized that her two trusted maids were actually drugging her every day.
Ye Congwen had not taken care of her since he threw her into this temple. In the past three months, he had visited her only a handful of times.
I ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddhist scriptures in the temple, and I was not allowed to eat any meat or oil. My only source of nutrition was bird's nests and tonics. Plus, I was tortured by nightmares every day, and the more I ate, the weaker I felt.
All the medicine in the porcelain bottle was taken into her diet bit by bit.
Ye Shu's mental state is worrying. When she closes her eyes, her dreams are full of monsters and demons that are coming to take her life. She is now skinny, with sunken cheeks and dark eye sockets. Her once pretty face now looks ten years older.
When Ye Congwen came to pick up his daughter, he was a little reluctant to recognize her. Could this dying person really be his daughter?
Didn't the monk say that if we send them to live in the temple for a few months, the smell of incense would suppress the evil spirits and help them to be pure and free from desires?
But he had to admit that Ye Congwen had lived a pretty comfortable life during the past few months when Ye Shu was not around, because there was no one to bother him for no reason.
Realizing his own thoughts, he shook his head in disbelief. Was he just disliking his own daughter?
Because the medicine had run out, she was not given any more medication in the next few days. Ye Shu did not have a nightmare yesterday, and finally slept peacefully all night.
My spirit, which had been scattered, has now recovered a little.
But she is in a very weak condition now. She looks half-dead and weak when she returns to the house. I am afraid she will need to rest for a long time before she can recover.
Ye Congwen asked people to take good care of her and give her nourishing food.
During the time she was away from home, Luo Ming's life was colorful every day.
Ever since his last attempt to trick Xiao Hechuan failed, he was completely devastated. A hangover made him fall in love with the feeling of being drunk and dreaming.
After getting drunk, he didn't have to think about anything, so he would return to the Luo family every few days after drinking until he was drunk. Ye Shu was not at home, and Ye Congwen was too lazy to care about him.
Until I noticed that his academic performance was getting worse and worse recently. According to the teacher, he sometimes even fell asleep in class. In the month-end exams in the past two months, his ranking has dropped to the top ten. He used to be in the top three or five, but now he is ranked behind Lu Yao.
The reason why Ye Congwen chose him to be his son-in-law was that he felt that he was very good in studying and learning. Although he was not as good as Xiao Hechuan, if he was well trained, it would be good for him to be among the top 30 in the imperial examination in the future.
But if he continues to perform like this, he might not even get a good ranking in the autumn examination, and it will be difficult for him to pass the imperial examination. Wouldn't that bring shame to himself in the future?
He absolutely could not let this happen.
So he sent people to secretly observe what Luo Ming was doing recently. He had not returned to the Ye Mansion for a while. Now that Shu'er was back, he did not come back to ask or take a look. Even if he just pretended to care, would he feel better?
He, on the other hand, didn't even try to act.
After school that day, Luo Ming went to the old place as usual. The people Ye Congwen sent to follow him followed him all the way and found that he actually came to the street in Jeju City where men lingered the most and entered a brothel called Ningxiang Pavilion.
This is simply disgraceful. As a student of Baiyun Academy, you actually hang out in brothels all day long. How can this be tolerated?
If it were someone else, it would be fine, at most people would call him a talented and romantic man, but he, Luo Ming, is the son-in-law of the Ye family, and when he goes out, he represents the face of Ye Congwen.
If people knew that the son-in-law he had carefully selected actually visited brothels every day, how would Ye Congwen feel about himself? What would people say about him?
Ye Congwen was so angry that when the person he sent came back to tell him about this matter, he was so angry that his beard stood up and he got extremely furious.
As for how Luo Ming ended up in a place like Ningxiang Pavilion, the story started two months ago, when he indulged in depravity and went drinking everywhere.
One day, he got drunk and did not choose to go home. Instead, he staggered to the lake alone. There was a boat on the lake with dim lights on it and the sound of bamboo music coming from it.
He fell drunk by the lake and was found by a woman holding a pipa.
The woman's name is Yanzhi, and she is a skinny girl from Ningxiang Pavilion. Because she plays the pipa and the flute very well, she sells her art but not her body. Today, a distinguished guest was having a banquet on the lake, so she went to Ningxiang Pavilion and ordered a group of singers, dancers and musicians to entertain her.
The banquet finally ended in the middle of the night. Yanzhi took her maid off the boat and returned to Ningxiang Pavilion. It was dark and she couldn't see clearly. She accidentally kicked Luo Ming who was drunk on the side of the road, and was really scared.
Upon closer inspection, he was a handsome young man wearing the clothes of Baiyun Academy.
So she brought him back to Ningxiang Pavilion.
