Chapter 298 The Crazy Protector of His Wife
Under Ye Yan's storytelling-like portrayal day and night, Yun Chen's image can be said to be taller, more beautiful and charming day by day.
Those brothers who used to invite Yun Chen to drink every day began to invite Yun Chen out to see flowers one after another.
Under the moon and flowers, Yun Chen brought a knife and wine as before, but the other party scratched his head embarrassedly and handed over a love letter with clumsy handwriting and bold and explicit words.
Is this what I mean by "I treat you as a brother, but you want to do that to me?" Yun Chen was so frightened that he got goosebumps all over his body and didn't dare to go to the appointment again.
After hearing this, Huo Gannian didn't even raise his eyelids, and said lightly:
"Love letter? Great. I wanted to die the first time I saw the real-name system."
Ye Yan knew that something bad was going to happen, so he quickly prepared everything in the house for the wedding.
Red silk, wedding characters, and red lanterns were all sent to the Huo Mansion like water. Every day, seven or eight tailors were called to come and take Yun Chen's measurements to make clothes, and they clamored for a custom-made phoenix crown and bridal bridal gown.
That was not enough, Ye Yan even asked someone to take the large round table used for banquets to the gate of the mansion to clean it, for fear that others would not know that his family's wedding was approaching.
I heard that after this, everyone in the house knew that Yun Chen was going to marry Huo Gannian.
The guards of the Huo Mansion sobbed and cried in the main room for several nights.
A few days later, the seven or eight guards who had expressed their desire to die were all exiled to the frontier, and were told that they would be transferred back after Yun Chen gave birth to a baby.
Although the remaining brothers of the Huo Gang had no intention of "sleeping" with Yun Chen, and no longer played around with Yun Chen like before, they could not hide their desire to "distress" Yun Chen.
Although he had taken great care to distinguish between men and women, Yun Chen always received a wave of "malicious" and stifled whistles whenever he passed by the front yard guards.
"Hey, beautiful girl, have you met my brother Achen?"
"Ahem, I'm new to seeing you, and you look so familiar. May I ask if you know someone named 'Yun Chen'? He still owes me a drink."
"What are you yelling about? You should call me Young Madam! Young Madam, since we've both fought together, can you give me a raise? How about a ten-liang increase?"
"You're so greedy—I'll just raise it by five taels! Raise it for me first!"
"I'm three or two!"
"I have one or two!"
"I'll pay for it! As a dowry!"
"A maidservant? Is the young master willing?"
“Hahahahahahahaha——”
Amid the laughter of his former brothers, Yun Chen's face turned red.
Hua Jue, who had come over upon hearing the noise, picked up a dog-beating stick, stood in front of Yun Chen, and waved it at the guards to drive them away:
"Go away, a grown man bullying a little girl? That's too much!"
Several guards became more excited:
"Yo yo yo——the protective sister-in-law demon is here again——"
Hua Jue glared and slammed the dog-beating stick into the ground, "That's right! Don't bully my sister-in-law!"
Several guards were so happy that no one put their arm around Yun Chen like before. Instead, they stepped forward and put their arm around Hua Jue's neck, saying with a smile:
"Brother Hua, we would like to bully the young lady, but unfortunately we don't have the ability to do so and can't defeat her."
"'Little girl'? I still can't connect these three words with Achen!"
"I'm so sad. I can't drink with Brother Chen anymore."
Hua Jue held the dog-beating stick in his arms, puffing out his chest proudly. "What are you afraid of? I'll be able to attend the Young Master's wedding soon. And later there will be the Young Master's full-moon banquet, the crowning banquet... there will be so many more!"
"Oh my god——" everyone burst into laughter.
Yun Chen's face was about to burn with embarrassment. He went up to Hua Jue, twisted his ear, and dragged him towards Qiyunju, cursing:
"You need a door to your mouth, don't you? How about I install one for you?"
Hua Jue grimaced in pain, not daring to fight back like before. He could only lean over, cover his ears, and yell:
"Sister-in-law, spare my life!"
Everyone laughed non-stop, "Yo yo yo - the sister-in-law hits the brother-in-law! Hahahaha -"
Ever since Yun Chen's identity as a woman disguised as a man was revealed, Hua Jue immediately transformed from Yun Chen's "brother" to Yun Chen's loyal bodyguard and brother-in-law.
Regardless of whether it was Bu Yan or other guards with whom he had a good relationship, as long as a man wanted to approach Yun Chen, Hua Jue would not allow it. He would only ask people to stand three meters away when talking, and any letter passed had to be verified by him.
Although this action was too exaggerated, Huo Gannian did not stop it.
He was very happy in his heart and thought it was a good idea. It saved him from having to worry about being on guard against love rivals every day, and being talked about by others as "the young master is so stingy."
When he saw Hua Jue habitually putting his hand on Yun Chen's shoulder and joking, he couldn't help but frown and said to Bu Yan, who was still frowning and couldn't accept Yun Chen's female body for a long time:
"Go, send two more washboards to Rui Niang's house!"
Fortunately, Rui Niang was gentle and generous. She didn't want Hua Jue to kneel on the washboard, so she just tied a flower hairband around his wrist.
From then on, whenever Hua Jue reached out to hug Yun Chen, he would see the flower hairband and immediately remember that Yun Chen was a woman now, so he dared not make any inappropriate moves.
However, Hua Jue’s reputation as the “wife-protecting maniac” has been established and has spread throughout the entire Huo family.
Who would have thought that within two days, Hua Jue had no idea what was wrong with him. Not only did he start to be wary of others, he even started to be wary of Huo Gannian.
There is no mention of differences between men and women. Hua Jue took the initiative to act as an oversized "forbidden zone" between Huo Gannian and Yun Chen.
Whenever Huo Gannian wanted to recite poems and paint side by side with Yun Chen, Hua Jue would squeeze in between the two of them and pretentiously comment on a painting of a crane that Huo Gannian had just finished:
"Well, the chicken is well drawn."
If Huo Gannian and Yun Chen were drinking in the yard, Hua Jue would rush over and forcibly take the wine jug away, replacing it with Xiaodiaoli soup that would not make people drunk even if they drank a thousand cups.
If Huo Gannian wanted to go to the room with Yun Chen, to admire a piece of moonstone that could only be seen clearly in the dark, Hua Jue would dare to directly grab Huo Gannian by the waist and carry him away, saying firmly:
"Don't pretend, brother. I'm a man too. I can't be alone with a young girl at night."
Huo Gannian gnashed his teeth and said, "Put me down! I bought a moonstone from Liuli Island with my daughter's money and want to give it to Chen'er to be used as a crown!"
Hua Jue made a "tsk" sound and shook his head firmly:
"Brother, how can you be such a person? Once the door is closed and the lights are turned off, I don't believe you just want to see the stone bare."
Huo Gannian's expression remained unchanged, but the tips of his ears were slightly red. He said angrily:
"roll!"
