Xiao Pingji and Xiao Guantang were both shy scholars, and Xiao Zhiqing was a simpleton. Only the eldest and fourth brothers were relatively straightforward, so Xiao Cunyu stared at the eldest brother with his pure eyes, staring at him and asking, "Tell me? Did you pass the imperial examination?"
"..." Xiao Jingyun also blushed because of him, "Why are you saying this in front of your sister-in-law?"
"Then wait until my sister-in-law comes back to her room, and then you can tell me in private?" Xiao Cunyu was still stubborn. Seeing that his brother was about to lose his temper, he hurriedly said, "Look, you didn't tell me in private, and now you don't allow me to ask? I'm doing this for your own good. You're not a child anymore, brother. I'm afraid that if you get too impatient and get carried away, it will end up in vain."
"Shut up! You're getting more and more outrageous!" Uncle Xiao almost had someone cover Xiao Cunyu's mouth.
Xiong couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why are you blaming him? The child is just curious. He should ask whatever he wants. There's no need to be so polite... Hongsui, that's just the way Old Seven is. Don't take it personally. He just treats you like one of his own and is so disrespectful. Once you get to know him more, you'll know he's not a bad kid."
"Yes, mother. I have met the seventh brother. I like his personality very much. Even my own brother is not as likable as him. We hit it off from the moment we met." Cheng Hongsui said frankly.
She wanted to clear up Xiao Cunyu's doubts, but she couldn't tell him those things in front of so many brothers-in-law.
Xiao Jingyun took a breath and said, "The wedding night will be a success. If you are curious, you should settle down and get married sooner. There is no need to envy me."
"It worked? Really?" Xiao Cunyu was a little confused.
If so, why hasn't the bride's ghost left yet?
These ghosts are extremely picky. If the groom they like is already someone else's husband, they will replace him without hesitation.
Therefore, many bride ghosts keep getting married and leaving for decades, treating other people's weddings as their own, and never get tired of it until their souls dissipate.
"Do I need to lie to you?" Xiao Jingyun wanted to take action.
If it wasn't for the fact that today was the first day of their wedding and he didn't want to embarrass his seventh brother in front of his wife, he would really have dragged him out and given him a beating.
"Okay then." Xiao Cunyu responded indifferently.
This made Xiao Jingyun even more angry.
Xiao Cunyu looked at the ghost carefully. She was already wearing a bright red wedding dress, and her eyes were dull. She was almost imitating Cheng Hongsui, following Cheng Hongsui in every move.
Xiao Cunyu was not sure what this ghost was planning, so he needed to wait and see.
She is very reasonable when it comes to capturing souls. She cannot just capture and torture a soul without caring about the consequences, especially for such sensitive ghosts. She has to sort them out slowly and let the other party leave on their own initiative. This is good for everyone.
After Cheng Hongsui served tea, the elders left and the remaining brothers sat down and chatted.
"Seventh brother won a lot of money yesterday. As the saying goes, whoever sees it gets a share. Shouldn't you give us some benefits?" Xiao Pingji smiled kindly, but his words were extremely annoying.
Xiao Cunyu snorted, "What are you talking about? You knew I was drunk but didn't stop me? I even lost my money!"
"Lost?" When several people heard this, they began to gloat.
"Seventh brother, you really have a big drinker. Your alcohol tolerance is even better than mine. When we get married in the future, I will trouble you." Xiao Yingting smiled evilly.
