Chapter 37: The General with No Heir VS the Delicate Commoner



The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, and people will organize dragon boat racing activities.

A month ago, Song Tingyue booked a private room in the teahouse with the best view for his family to watch the dragon boat race.

Who would have thought that the private room booked by the Chi family was right next to theirs.

So the two families met in the teahouse.

Chi Bingwen took Song Tingyue and Qian aside and chatted with them for a while.

Chi Yunzhi and Chu brought Song Yansheng and Song Jinze into the private room. There were tea, pastries and a few rice dumplings on the table.

The young men participating in the dragon boat race on the riverside were shirtless and sitting down to do warm-up exercises. Their biceps were strong and full, and they made a crackling sound when they were clapped.

The streets along the river were bustling with people, all coming to watch the fun.

There are many peddlers carrying goods on their shoulders.

The wind blew on the river, giving it a sense of grandeur.

There are seven dragon boats parked at the starting point. The lifelike dragon heads have seven colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple tied around their necks, making them look like they are about to fly in the wind.

The dragon boat race was hosted by the Rui Wang Mansion, and the Rui Wang and his son Zhang Lanxu were also among them.

He is full of vigor and is a young talent of this generation. As soon as he appears, the faces of the girls around him immediately blush.

The government arranges patrols wherever people gather. This time, people were also sent from the military camp, and Song Shaoheng and Bai Yufeng were among the team.

He turned his head to look in the direction of the teahouse and saw Song Tingyue and the Chu family standing by the window, waving enthusiastically.

Bai Yufeng was already urging him on, so he turned around and caught up with the team.

Chi Bingwen pulled Song Tingyue to stand by the window, pointing out the landscape with great momentum.

The two were guessing which team would win.

All the shirtless men got on board.

Zhang Lanxu waved the flag in his hand, and the seven dragon boats rushed forward with all their might.

The drummer at the bow beat the drum with all his might, his arms bulging with veins, and the team members paddled with all their might.

The waves hit the hull, and the green boat almost capsized because the direction of the oars was not consistent.

The green boat deviated slightly from its trajectory and was caught up by the yellow dragon boat behind it.

The dragon boat race stirs up layers of waves, and the beauty of the interweaving of strength and passion is fully displayed at this moment.

Chi Yunzhi's blood boiled when she saw this, and she couldn't even eat the rice dumplings.

This is the traditional meaning of dragon boat racing!

It’s so exciting!

The waiter came in with a tray and asked them if they wanted to bet a little. Chi Yunzhi put up one tael of silver, and Chu also put up one tael.

The two little ones didn't come out.

She guessed the blue one would win, but Chu thought it would be the purple one.

Song Yansheng guessed yellow, and Song Jinze guessed green.

Song Tingyue had already come in when the dragon boat race started. He stood in front of the window and gently put his arm around Chi Yunzhi's shoulders.

The wind on the river was getting stronger and stronger, and several dragon boats were blown to and fro. Only the red one stood out and won first place.

Chi Yunzhi breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't expect that no one in their room won.

But it doesn't matter, at least she has a sense of participation.

After the dragon boat race ended, the gathered people began to disperse, and Chi Yunzhi and the others also returned home.

Chi Miaoyan looked at Song Tingyue who was helping Chi Yunzhi get into the carriage, with infinite jealousy in her eyes.

She shouldn't have listened to her mother and let that bitch Chi Yunzhi marry him!

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Li was wrong.

He completely forgot that he had been avoiding Song Tingyue as much as possible.

Lunch was eaten at the old lady’s Songheyuan, which was also the day of family reunion in the year.

Taking advantage of this opportunity today, the old lady also gave some instructions to the Qian family and let Chi Yunzhi take charge of the family.

Except for the Qian family, everyone naturally had no doubts.

The rice dumplings used were brought from various courtyards, and the ones from Guiyun Pavilion had the most flavors. The two children ate them with gusto.

But it is not advisable to eat too many rice dumplings, just two is enough.

Aunt Jiao also distributed sachets sewn by the old lady herself to everyone. Chi Yunzhi immediately hung it on her belt, obviously liking it very much.

After dinner, the old lady felt tired, so she sent the younger generations away and went to the couch to take a rest.

Taking advantage of the lunch break, Zhuyin and Huarong gathered all the servants together and began to distribute holiday gifts.

Chi Yunzhi and her maids made the rice dumplings themselves, and gave each person a gift of one or two taels of silver.

The servants took the things and rushed out with nice words as if they were free, which made Zhuyin and Huarong very happy.

Chi Yunzhi went to Qian's house to get the key to the Zhonggong family, and she officially became the mistress of the Song family.

When she left, Qian's face must have been as stinky as it could be!

After the Dragon Boat Festival, things started to get busy again.

The decoration of the drink shop has been completed, and the only thing missing is a plaque and a drink menu.

Chi Yunzhi also wanted to go and see the actual conditions of the four stores. She was so busy that she had no time to rest.

Sometimes Song Tingyue was off duty and she was nowhere to be seen.

For the first time, the tall and straight man felt a sense of loneliness, of being idle and abandoned.

Lanxiang also saw a bit of loneliness in his back.

As soon as Chi Yunzhi came back, she didn't even have time to drink a sip of water before she saw Song Tingyue's resentful eyes.

Well, it seems that she has been busy with work these days and has ignored the mood of this big boy.

A smile spread across her lips, and she pulled his big hand over, inserting it easily.

The two of them clasped their fingers together.

Song Tingyue's complexion looked a little better.

Zhuyin had already prepared the meal.

How can you have strength if you don’t eat?

There were no maids to serve during meals.

Chi Yunzhi took a bite of the dish and looked at him with seductive eyes.

Song Tingyue felt hot all over, and Chi Yunzhi's look made his breathing even faster.

Chi Yunzhi knew the time had come.

She pulled Song Tingyue slowly into the room and closed the door with her foot.

"Sir, I haven't seen you for a few days. Are you feeling lonely?"

"Once you enter my Pansi Cave, don't even think about leaving today!"

“Ouch!”

Chi Yunzhi grabbed his collar and stood on tiptoe to kiss him.

The room was filled with spring colors, and the moon was so shy that it hid in the clouds.

The next morning, when Song Tingyue got up, she also got up and had already taken the fertility pills.

This time it's real.

Today Chi Yunzhi is going to see the set of jewelry that has been made, and Princess Wuyang will soon arrive in the capital.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she arrived at the door of Baoyun Pavilion, she heard a fierce quarrel inside and the sound of things being thrown to the ground.

Chi Yunzhi hurried in.

"I bought this hairpin from you, but it broke after only two days of wearing it. You have to pay me back!"

A tall and thin woman slammed a red-gold chrysanthemum hairpin on the table. The hairpin had cracked, revealing the material inside.

"Miss, this hairpin is not the style we have here. I have told you many times that we don't have this style of hairpin!" The shopkeeper frowned, thinking that the woman was being unreasonable.
