Compared to the chaos on Shang Xiche's side, Qingyuan was a scene of joy and harmony.
"Big brother, what brings you here?" Ji Fengyao was overjoyed to see Ji Fengming in the courtyard early in the morning and ran over to him.
"What happened to your leg? I've only been away from you for a few days and you've already gotten injured. What is your brother-in-law good for!" Ji Fengming noticed Ji Fengyao's gait was off at a glance and glared angrily at Shang Xiye behind her.
Shang Xiye: "..."
He tolerated it because his despicable brother-in-law was only concerned about his wife.
"It's alright, it's alright, I did it myself." Ji Fengyao was afraid that Ji Fengming would start a fight with Shang Xiye at the slightest disagreement, so she quickly pulled Ji Fengming to sit down in the courtyard.
Seeing the black owl on the table, Ji Fengyao laughed and teased, "Doctor Xiao is practically a ginseng fruit in the summer resort, and you still dare to come back now?"
"Missing Xiao Yao'er? Can't you come back and visit?" Black Owl casually stroked his handsome beard, still speaking without restraint: "Why don't you come out and play with me and your brother? What's the point of staying here guarding this blockhead Xiao Jiu?"
"That's a good idea. I'll take you to Penglai Island at sea. The red spirit fruit there is delicious; you can't find it anywhere else." Ji Fengming immediately became interested, even though he disliked the Ninth Prince who had injured his sister a hundredfold.
"Young Master, give it back to me!" The sparrow, who had been inexplicably listless all night, perked up again when it saw Ji Fengming.
"Of course I won't leave you out, you silly girl," Ji Fengming turned around and gave Xi Que a bright smile.
Ji Fengming's eyebrows and eyes were very similar to Ji Fengyao's, and his phoenix eyes were bright and seemed to shine when he smiled; coupled with his innate youthful vigor, his smile was even more dazzling.
Like the rising sun, it captivates the mind and brings joy.
Xi Que loved seeing him smile. She ran over and sat down next to Ji Fengming, her face full of admiration: "Young Master, did you really go to Penglai Prefecture? When did you go? Was it fun there?"
"I've long heard that pirates are rampant in Penglai Prefecture. Don't tell me that it's also a stronghold of your Vulture Village." Shang Xiye stopped his wheelchair in front of the stone table and stared at Ji Fengming with a probing look.
Ji Fengming then realized he had misspoke and awkwardly laughed it off: "Uh, I was just bragging, don't talk nonsense. After all, we from Vulture Village have been recruited by the government."
As he spoke, he pulled out a stack of silver notes from his pocket and stuffed them into Ji Fengyao's hand, quickly changing the subject: "Little sister, these are what your brother has been robbing... um, earning recently, you can take them."
Ji Fengyao: "...Brother, I'm almost buried by the silver notes you gave me."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Mother said that girls should be pampered and raised in luxury. We've got such a stingy brother-in-law who won't even give you a penny. Shouldn't your brother give you more?" Ji Fengming forcefully stuffed the silver notes into Ji Fengyao's hand.
As if just remembering the truth, Xi Que turned around and looked at Shang Xiye seriously, adding, "Young Master, it seems you really haven't given my young lady any pocket money."
Shang Xiye: "..."
Is it his fault for not having experience finding a wife for the first time? Can't he change in the future?
He glanced at his young wife's face with some concern.
Ji Fengyao misunderstood the prince's gaze, thinking he was silently accusing her:
I collected so many medicinal herbs for you, isn't that money?!
She quickly spoke up to defend him: "What are you thinking? The prince gave me the royal seal, and I'm in charge of all the money in the manor. Those loose silver coins are my private stash for him. How could a prince like him not have a single piece of silver on him? Wouldn't that be too embarrassing to go out in public?"
