Chapter 451 Sleepy
Lu Feng's hand is really moving!
Looks like she'll wake up soon!
Old Man Lu went to find Lu Yun again.
"Hurry up, the Crown Prince wants to force your sister to marry him. Quickly prepare the wedding gifts and give all the money you've earned to your sister..."
Lu Yun: "He forced us to marry him and expects us to pay him? He should give us all the money."
"Stop talking... In this world, power oppresses people."
"..."
Inside the wedding shop, Ji Ruyan picked out wedding fruits and candies, listening to the guards' report, a smile playing on her lips.
“Go tell them that it’s not a forced marriage, it’s a son-in-law move into the wife’s family.”
The guard trembled in fright and hurried inside...
Seeing that Ji Ruyan wasn't joking at all, the guard quickly shut his mouth and ran off to inform her.
Ji Ruyan went to the county government office again.
A moment later, he emerged with his newly issued household registration certificate, bowing deeply to the county magistrate.
In a small herb garden in the far corner of the medical school, the smell of blood was strong.
Lu Qingqing is planting Blood Ganoderma.
She sent people to the mountains to kill a few wolves, cut open their bellies, sprinkled some medicinal powder on them, and then covered them with a thin layer of soil.
The medicinal powder was made by finding medicinal materials with similar smells based on the smell of Ganoderma lucidum.
It was all a mess, I just guessed.
Just growing it for fun.
Even growing a low-grade product is acceptable.
After finishing all that, she locked up the small herb garden.
As soon as I came out, I could see a sea of red from afar.
What kind of things are hanging there? Did Lao Lu do it again?
A wife who has been lost and then regained is like a newlywed couple!
Lu Qingqing grinned.
"Little Aunt—"
The Meng-Jiao duo is back again.
Si Xi and Wang Jincai, two young men, ran up to him in the blink of an eye.
"Aunt, I heard the Crown Prince wants to force you into marriage!"
"Huh? Forced marriage?"
You could give him ten times the courage!
Now I'm even more timid than before; I hide as soon as someone gets too close, like a sheep.
Lu Qingqing gets angry whenever she thinks about it.
The blood deficiency may be affecting his adrenal hormones, so we need to replenish them for him as soon as possible.
“Really, Auntie, look, the silk ribbons are already tied! The whole academy knows, except you. Isn’t this forced marriage?” Si Xi’s logic is on point.
"You must never do anything against a woman's will," my sister-in-law said.
“Auntie, if you want to run away, I’ll help you. Everyone in the academy is my little brother.” Wang Jincai was very confident.
"Okay, okay, we'll call out when we need you. Now get out of here right now, don't delay your uncle's forced marriage."
"..."
"What's wrong with my aunt? Doesn't she hate people who abuse their power?" Wang Jincai asked, his eyes filled with questions.
Si Xi understood: "Do you remember what my aunt once said: The most skilled hunters always appear as prey?"
Oh~
Wang Jincai nodded in sudden realization: "What do you mean?"
Lu Qingqing strolled back as if nothing had happened.
"Miss, His Highness is waiting for you in his room."
Upon entering the room, I saw the man sitting upright at the table, writing something.
His smooth, black hair hung down neatly, and he looked serious and earnest, as if he cared about the common people and was writing about national affairs.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out they were writing a marriage certificate.
It wasn't a marriage certificate, but more like a vow.
With a sincere heart, I swear to Heaven and Earth and to the gods:
Now he has married into the Lu family and become husband and wife with Lu Qingqing. Their love is deep and their commitment is unwavering.
I will love only you in this life, and I will never betray you.
Though our time together is short and our separation long, I have not uttered a single complaint.
Even though I have no children, I will treat you as always.
If in the future my words and deeds contradict my oath of today, I will repay with tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver, and thousands of acres of fertile land...
Heaven and earth bear witness, and even ghosts and gods will punish them.
Oath-taker: Si Yanru.
"Si Yanru? Who is that?" Lu Qingqing was engrossed in reading the rest of the book when she suddenly became confused.
"You found me a son-in-law? What's he like? Is he good-looking? Is he physically strong?"
Ji Ruyan's face darkened.
He took out the newly issued household registration certificate and tossed it in front of her with a light touch.
"My mother's surname is Si, so from now on, my identity outside will be Si Yanru."
He wore a patched and worn-out robe, and his food basket and gourd were often empty, yet he remained content.
"Oh~, Si Yanru."
Lu Qingqing blinked. "So, this oath was written by Si Yanru and has nothing to do with Ji Ruyan. Even if Si Yanru breaks the oath, Ji Ruyan can still renege on it?"
Ji Ruyan: "..."
He immediately picked up a pen and quickly wrote another copy, proving that Ji Ruyan was Si Yanru. In the end, both copies were stamped with the Crown Prince's private seal.
He offered it with both hands, his eyes bright, and asked, "May we get married?"
“At this time…” Lu Qingqing was in a difficult position.
"My eldest brother hasn't woken up yet, my second sister-in-law is still in Ming'an County, my mother still needs to recuperate, and there are many things to do at the academy..."
"We can have a proper ceremony later. Let's get the marriage certificate first and have a simple ceremony. Qingqing... once we're married, I won't stop you from doing whatever you want..."
He used his good looks to his advantage, holding her hands in his own, his eyes brimming with a pleading, wet gaze.
This sight aroused a surge of lust in Lu Qingqing!
The key question is, what can he do right now? She's making it sound like she's in a real hurry!
"Um, this..."
"Qingqing, I will be returning to the capital soon..."
“Your health isn’t good yet, so I’ll go to the capital with you first.”
"no."
Unexpectedly, Ji Ruyan refused.
"Wait until I've dealt with some people before you go."
Lu Qingqing looked at him, but he remained unmoved.
"All right."
"Then, get married?"
"You've already hung up the red ribbon and are trying to force me to marry you, what can I do? Sigh... I'm just worried about your current weak health..."
Lu Qingqing turned her back and grinned.
Behind her, a pair of arms wrapped around her waist.
"Qingqing..."
"Something's wrong! Daughter, Qingqing—" Old Man Lu shouted anxiously from outside.
"Go check on your mother quickly! She's been asleep for eight hours and hasn't woken up yet!"
Lu Qingqing and Ji Ruyan hurried over.
Shan Yueming's health is indeed very weak, and it may take a long time to recover.
But there is absolutely no danger to their lives.
Anyway, just don't let her worry or trouble herself anymore, and she'll be able to live peacefully.
The fact that I can't wake him up now is probably because he's in a safe environment and too relaxed, so he's fallen into a deep sleep.
"Father, her pulse is fine, there's no need for acupuncture. Let Mother wake up naturally."
"Oh, is that so?"
Old Man Lu was finally relieved.
I was really scared; my face turned as white as if I'd covered it with flour.
"We'll get married tomorrow," Ji Ruyan suddenly said.
"??????"
There's no need to rush. The day after tomorrow is fine too. What's wrong with treating her like a daughter?
"Brother Qingqing hasn't woken up yet!" Old Man Lu protested with a stern face.
I'm really unhappy this time.
"That's why I'm marrying into the family to bring good luck. My eldest brother will definitely wake up tomorrow. Aunt Shui's health will also improve."
"..."
