"Fair?" Cheng Ying sneered and dropped the wine glass in his hand. It wasn't fair. He waited for ten years in Fahua Temple and took the trouble to train Lu Jin and Yu Qizhe, not to recruit disciples, but to wait for the person who would never appear in Taiyan.
Looking around the house at the glaring red, Cheng Ying's phoenix eyes became even more violent. Everyone in the world can get married, so why can't he?
There is no way to deny that at this moment he was deeply jealous of Yu Qizhe. He got what he wanted, and it was what he wanted. How satisfying!
"Please forgive me for the poor hospitality." Yu Qizhe had no intention of arguing with Cheng Ying. To him today, external things were not important at all. Yu Qizhe bowed slightly and left the side hall.
After Yu Qizhe left, Cheng Ying's face was as gloomy as water. If Zhang Daoling had not given him the illusory hope back then, he would not have been so happy for nothing!
A gust of cold wind blew by, and only leftover food and empty wine glasses were left on the table in the side hall, and no one was there.
The front yard was still bustling with activity. Yu Jiao had already finished her meal and was now sitting on the bed in her new home, feeling so sleepy that she could not help yawning.
Not long after drinking the wedding wine, Wang Mengyan quietly brought food into the room. Yu Jiao ate a few pieces of sweet and sour pork ribs, some refreshing bamboo shoots, and drank a bowl of matsutake mushroom and pigeon soup. Wang Mengyan sat aside and laughed at her, saying that she was hungry.
After Yu Jiao finished her meal, Wang Mengyan chatted with her for a while. The two had not seen each other since Yu Jiao came to Beijing. Wang Mengyan had just come to Beijing two days ago. She also brought little Platycodon with her. Today, the new residence was busy with business, and Wang Mengyan was afraid that the little girl would be noisy after seeing too many strangers, so she left little Platycodon in the house in Yong'an Lane and did not bring her here with her.
Yu Jiao still missed little Platycodon a little. The little girl had been sweet-mouthed, smart and likable since she was little.
Wang Mengyan inevitably mentioned Qingyu Village. No matter she was talking about her home or the village, her face was always filled with joy. After Yu Qiaoshan became the head of the village, the lives of every household became better by growing herbs. Yu Zhixing also had another job in Xixun County. After the eldest wife paid to the public every month, they had a lot of extra money in their hands. They no longer had to live as tight as before and no longer had to worry about having no food to eat.
When Yu Jiao heard Wang Mengyan talking about this, a smile appeared on her face. Life in the countryside can be said to be simple, but it can also be difficult. It is nothing more than making a living. The poor mountains and bad waters are full of unruly people. All the calculations and plans are just because of poverty.
Unlike Shengjing, where power moves people's hearts.
After Wang Mengyan left, although Yu Jiao was accompanied by Jianjia and Bailu, she did not sleep much last night. She got up very early today and kept dozing off.
If she hadn't been concerned about the wedding night, Yu Jiao would have wanted to wash up and lie down long ago. She still had heavy makeup on her face, and her hair bun and heavy headdress made her neck heavy, making it difficult for her to lift it up. Yu Jiao suspected that if she continued like this, she would have a stiff neck tomorrow.
Just when Yu Jiao couldn't help but call Jianjia to help her remove the headdress on her bun, footsteps were heard outside the door. Bai Lu lowered her voice and said, "My son-in-law is here."
Yu Jiao quickly straightened her dress and sat up straight. Then she heard the door being pushed open. Jianjia and Bailu knelt down to greet her, then walked out and closed the door.
Realizing that there were only two of them in the room, Yu Jiao inevitably became nervous. She clenched her hands on her knees slightly, took a deep breath, and then looked up at Yu Qizhe.
The red candle on the high table was burning quietly. Yu Qizhe had a smile on his lips. His usually cold eyes and brows were now warm and handsome, without any gloom.
Yu Qizhe walked to the bedside and saw that Yu Jiao looked sleepy. He raised his hand and took off the golden hairpin with a phoenix and a crane on her hair, while gently lifting up Yu Jiao's neck.
"Is it heavy? If you are sleepy, why don't you wash up and go to bed first?" Yu Qizhe's low voice was somewhat gentle.
Yu Jiao looked up at him, and their eyes met. Seeing Yu Qizhe's smiling and affectionate peach blossom eyes, she inexplicably felt that the air around her became anxious and heart-pounding.
"I heard that the guests in front haven't left yet, why are you back?" Yu Jiao thought she would have to wait for a long time. At this moment, it was just getting dusk outside and it was not yet completely dark.
While helping her untie her hair and remove her headgear, Yu Qizhe said, "Someone is entertaining her. Lu Jin and father are here."
Yu Jiao hummed, and the room fell silent. Feeling Yu Qizhe's hand running through her hair, she said softly, a little embarrassed, "I'll call Jianjia to help me. I also need to wash off my makeup..."
