When Chen Qiu brought Mingyue, Xing'er and Xiaofu over, they heard Ye Chen's laughter from afar. Xing'er rubbed Mingyue with her elbow, and Mingyue's face turned red visibly.
After entering the house, Chen Qiu asked Ye Chen: "What are you talking about? Why are you laughing so happily?"
"Mu Qing, why are you still kneeling? Get up, I agree!"
Mu Qing looked at Chen Qiu with a smile and then kowtowed to her, saying, "Thank you, Madam. Thank you, Madam!"
Chen Qiu sat down and said, "However, Mingyue said that you should live in the Duke's Mansion after you get married. Do you agree?"
Mu Qing nodded quickly: "I agree, I agree, whatever Mingyue says is what it is!"
Chen Qiu looked at Mingyue and said, "Do you want to get married as soon as possible or wait? After the New Year?"
“The sooner the better”
"Wait a little longer," Mu Qing and Mingyue said at the same time.
Chen Qiu and Ye Chen looked at each other and laughed, "Oh? Didn't you agree on which one to listen to, Mingyue or Muqing?"
Mingyue didn't say anything. Mu Qing scratched his head as if he had made a great decision and said, "Listen to me!"
Chen Qiu burst out laughing. Aunt Hua, who came to serve tea and fruit, heard it and said, "This silly boy, he is quite happy this time!"
Mingyue lowered her head, but her mouth could not be closed, and her face was so red that water seemed to be dripping out.
Ye Chen said to Shen Qiu: "Qiu'er, please be kind and stop teasing Mu Qing. Help him!"
Chen Qiu said with a smile: "Who told her to keep insulting Mingyue some time ago? Can't I, as her family, embarrass her?"
Then Chen Qiu put away his smile, walked over to Mu Qing and Ming Yue, handed Ming Yue's hand to Mu Qing, and said to Mu Qing solemnly: "I hand Ming Yue over to you. If you dare to let her down, I will make sure you never see her again. Not even once. Remember?"
Mu Qing also put away her smile and was about to swear when she was stopped by Chen Qiu. Chen Qiu said, "Don't swear easily. If you swear, it should be to someone important to you. Keep her in your heart and think about her all the time. Even if you don't swear, she will feel it."
Mu Qing nodded solemnly and said, "Madam, don't worry, I will never let Mingyue down!"
Chen Qiu smiled and said, "Well, I hope you remember what I said today. From now on, you can just wait for your wedding with peace of mind. I will make all the arrangements for you."
Ye Chen continued, "Okay, it's settled. Qiu'er hasn't had breakfast yet, so go back and get ready!"
Xiaofu hurried to Mingyue's side, took her hand and said, "Sister Mingyue, are you getting married? What does it mean to get married?"
Mingyue blushed and said, "Marriage is marriage, it's..."
Xing'er pulled Xiaofu aside and whispered something in his ear. Xiaofu immediately rushed to Mingyue with a smile and said, "Sister Mingyue, you won't sleep in the same room with us anymore? And you will have a baby too? He's my nephew, right?"
Mingyue glared at Xing'er, and Xing'er shrugged and smiled.
After everyone left, Ye Chen put his arms around Shen Qiu’s waist from behind, put his chin on Shen Qiu’s shoulder, and murmured, “Qiu’er, do you still not believe the oath I made?”
Chen Qiu reached out, stroked Ye Chen's face and said, "To be honest, I didn't quite believe it at the time, but later I did, because you're so good, my husband. Now I even feel like someone cursed you on our wedding night, and that's why you treated me like that!"
"My husband, I believe you, you don't have to doubt it."
Ye Chen listened to Chen Qiu's words, and a tear flowed from the corner of his eye. In his previous life, Chen Qiu said to Ye Chen in despair: "I will never believe you again."
Ye Chen spent a lifetime waiting for these words: "I believe you."
Ye Chen buried his head in Shen Qiu's neck and kissed her bit by bit, making Shen Qiu giggle.
The Double Ninth Festival came suddenly, and because it was a flower-viewing banquet, all the female family members attended. Not only the wives of the officials, but also the unmarried daughters and unmarried sons of the families were brought into the palace.
Before this, Lan Yu presented a letter of credence to the emperor. This time she would attend as a princess of a neighboring country. She wanted to make her affair with Xiao Hang public, and connect it with her family and country. Otherwise, based on her understanding of Xiao Hang, this guy would definitely run away at the critical moment.
The Double Ninth Festival was in late autumn. Ye Nan Kingdom was located in the south, where the four seasons were like spring. Since Lan Yu was going to participate as a princess of a neighboring country, she had to wear the clothes of her own country.
Xiao Hang knew why Lan Yu did this, but what could he do? Who made him really want to escape again?
On the Double Ninth Festival, Chen Qiu and Lan Yu were dressing up at Qiuchen Court. Lan Yu's attire was complicated and involved many rules. The silver ornaments, purses, and necklaces hanging on her head all had specific positions, and none of them could be wrong. Chen Qiu and Xing'er Mingyue fiddled with her for a long time before helping Lan Yu get dressed.
However, Ye Chen was directing Mu Qing to intercept people because Xiao Hang ran away again. He took advantage of the fact that Lan Yu had no time to watch him today and quietly slipped away.
In fact, Xiao Hang cannot be blamed for being cowardly. He is just the son of a military doctor and is devoted to studying medicine.
By chance, he plucked the feather of Lan Yu, who was both the heir of Yaogu and the successor of Yenan Kingdom. Although Yenan Kingdom was not big, it was still a country. He was really scared of taking over the position of regent in the future.
Xiao Hang's martial arts skills were not weak, but he could not withstand the large number of people brought by Ye Chen. Xiao Hang said with a smile: "Xiao Chenzi, let me go!"
Ye Chen snorted coldly and said, "I don't care what happens to you, but you are not allowed to leave before Qiu'er gives birth!"
Xiao Hang said: "I'm a doctor, not a midwife. There's no point in me staying!"
Ye Chen glared at Xiao Hang and said, "Bah, who asked you to deliver the baby?"
"You're a doctor. Since you promised to take care of Qiu'er, you can't give up halfway. Besides, the imperial doctors are unreliable. What if one day they're bribed? What if something happens to Qiu'er?"
"So, you can't leave. Besides, Lan Yu is a better doctor than you, and I'll feel at ease knowing she'll be watching over me in the delivery room. But if you leave, Lan Yu will definitely come after you. Where will I find a doctor?"
Xiao Hang was completely discouraged. In the past, he only had to be on guard against Lan Yu, but after this incident, it would be difficult for him to leave the Duke's Mansion.
Ye Chen looked at the wilted Xiao Hang and asked, "Do you really dislike Lan Yu?"
Xiao Hang smiled and said, "How could I not like her? She's so cute and beautiful, but I'm afraid I can't handle it!"
Ye Chen said coldly: "I'm afraid what you can't bear the most is Lan Yu's deep affection. Your love for her is not even one ten-thousandth of what she loves for you."
Xiao Hang was about to say something, but Ye Chen raised his hand to stop him. Ye Chen continued, "If you really love her, when you feel there is a gap between you, you will do everything you can to make yourself worthy of her, instead of throwing all the problems to her and letting her bear everything, while you run away again and again, like a coward!"
Ye Chen waved to Mu Qing and said, "Take him back. No matter what happens between you and Lan Yu, you have to take good care of Qiu'er for me."
Xiao Hang was carried back to the Duke's Mansion by the people led by Mu Qing, and finally Ye Chen had someone throw him in front of Lan Yu.
