Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When they reached the garden door, everyone bade farewell to one another again. Li Yu got into the carriage and sat down. Granny Yang thoughtfully took a pillow for Li Yu to use as a cushion. She smiled and said, ‘Madam, the capital is like this. She’s holding a flower appreciation banquet today. Tomorrow, she’ll treat us to wine. There will be endless banquets in a year.”
When Li Yu heard this, she thought with a headache that these social events were really boring. She would hide in the countryside after they have settled down.
When they returned home, Yangyang ran over with Xiao Bai to look for Li Yu. “Mother, I went to see Sir today. I have to go to school tomorrow morning. Mother, they don’t accept Little Loach and the others. Move our school to the capital! Little Loach and the others can also go to school then.”
Li Yu thought for a moment. “How about this? When you go home from school, you can teach Little Loach and the others what you learned. In the future, you’ll be their young teacher.”
Yangyang thought for a moment and puffed out his chest. He looked at Li Yu with his big round eyes. “Alright, prepare a classroom for me.”
Li Yu smiled and touched his head. “Go to the front courtyard and choose one yourself. Get Uncle Xiang to prepare a table and stool for you.”
“Alright, I’ll choose now.” Yangyang led Xiao Bai and took a few steps before turning back to look at Li Yu. “Mother, I’ll be Young Sir in the future.
Remember not to touch my head again.”
Seeing his serious expression, Li Yu held back her laughter and replied seriously, “Alright! I won’t touch our Young Master’s head in the future.”
Yangyang nodded in satisfaction. “Thank you, Mother. I’ll prepare the classroom.”
As soon as the Hundred Flowers Banquet ended, the news that Madam Yang had been dealt with by Miss Fan’s aunt spread in the capital. Madam Lin, who was on good terms with Madam Wu, came out of the Hundred Flowers Banquet and rushed to the Fan family.
Madam Lin looked at Madam Wu reproachfully. “Sister Wu, your Wanwan was betrothed to such a good family. Why didn’t I hear you mention it? You didn’t know that your grievance was avenged today. That vicious woman from the Yang family was taught a lesson by Mingfang’s sister-in-law. Madam Yang cried and left the flower banquet.” As she spoke, she imitated Li Yu’s appearance and warning to Madam Yang.
When Madam Wu heard this, her heart fell to the ground. She thought about how Aunt Li had defended Wanwan in public and even helped Wanwan seek justice and punish Madam Yang. The marriage would not change.
Madam Wu was pleasantly surprised. She held her hand and said, “Sister Lin, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but Young Master Lis’s Brother-in-law only brought Young Master Li here two days ago. Uncle Li and the official media came to propose the marriage yesterday. Master and I will have told you in a few days.”
Madam Lin also chuckled. “You can rest assured now. Madam Li is so protective of Mingfang. Wanwan is finally very lucky. The good days are still ahead!”
Madam Wu said happily, “Thank you for your blessings, Sister Lin.”
The two of them chatted for a while before Madam Lin bade farewell and left. Madam Wu went to her daughter’s boudoir to tell her the news that Madam Lin had brought. She said to her, “Wanwan, your sister-in-law is a sensible person. After you marry over, you have to respect her and help Ah Qing lead a good life, understand?”
Fan Mingfang was extremely touched that Li Yu could publicly defend her. She looked at Madam Wu and said, “Mother, don’t worry. I’ll live a good life. He was raised by Sister-in-law. The eldest sister is like a mother. She should be respected.”
Madam Wu looked at her daughter and nodded in relief.
Halfway through the next day, Xia Tao was followed by a woman with a bulging abdomen, willowy eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, fair skin, and a dark red dress.
Li Yu and Zhou Jia welcomed them in. Zhou Jia looked at Xia Tao, pointed at Li
Yu and Li Qing, and introduced with a smile, “Zijing, you know my wife too. This is my brother-in-law, Li Qing. His name is Qingbai.”
Li Yu and Li Qing smiled and went forward to greet them. Xia Tao smiled and said to them, “This is my wife, Madam Tang. Madam, this is my good friend, Zhou Jia. Jiahe, this is his wife. You can come and talk to Sister-in-law in the future.”
Li Yu smiled and said to Madam Tang, “Sister-in-law, please follow me around. ”
Madam Tang smiled gently and agreed to go to the backyard with Li Yu. After walking around and talking about the current situation at home, the two of them couldn’t find anything to say.
Seeing that she was quiet and didn’t say much, Li Yu thought to herself that Xia Tao liked to laugh and make a fuss at first sight. The two of them were quite compatible. Seeing that she seemed to be a little tired again, she smiled and said to her, “Sister-in-law, are you tired? Do you want me to bring you to rest for a while?”
Madam Tang smiled and nodded. “Sister-in-law, I’m a little tired.”
Li Yu brought her to the guest room to rest and went to the kitchen to take a look at the dishes. Old Madam Liu smiled and reported, “Madam, there’s ginseng black chicken soup, magnolia slices of winter bamboo shoots, steamed bass, and spring vegetable soup… Is it enough?”
Li Yu nodded in satisfaction. “Alright, prepare it as you say. The banquet will start in an hour.”
“Yes!” Old Madam Liu agreed happily and went to work.
Li Yu walked around and didn’t see Mr. Wen. After looking around, Xing Hua came back and said, “Madam, Old Master brought the Maizi to the west city for a volunteer medical consultation. He said that he would be back before midnight.”
Zhou Jia and Xia Tao chatted for a while. Xia Tao looked at Zhou Jia strangely. “Where’s your son? Why didn’t you bring him to me?”
Zhou Jia smiled. “He’s in school! I’ll get someone to pick him up!”
Xia Tao stood up and looked at Zhou Jia. “I know the school; we’ll pick him up together.”
The two of them walked out together. Zhou Jia smiled proudly and said, “He went to the Lin clan school to study. He was still worried that Little Loach and the others wouldn’t be able to study. When he found his mother, her mother gave him the idea to teach those children himself. He even prepared a classroom and prepared to be a young teacher!”
“Oh! He sounds like a smart kid.’
The two of them arrived at the Lin clan school and got out of the carriage. After Zhou Jia told the old servant, he went in and applied for leave from the teacher on duty. When the child came out of school, he saw Zhou Jia walk up to him. “Father, are you coming to pick me up? Father, I’ve met a new friend.”
“Sure! You’ve made new friends so quickly. Uncle Xia is here. Daddy will take you to see him.”
“Okay, next time I’ll introduce you to my new friends.”
“Okay.” Zhou Jia held his hand and walked out. Xia Tao stood beside the carriage and saw Zhou Jia holding his son’s hand. He thought to himself that this child was really good -looking. He didn’t look as quiet as Jiahe when he was young.
Xia Tao went forward and reached out to touch Yangyang’s bag. “Jiahe, your son is really good-looking. He looks more like a kid compared to when you were younger.”
“What do you mean by like a kid? He’s a kid, to begin with.” Zhou Jia smiled and kicked him. Then, he turned around and said to Yangyang, “Yang’er, greet your Uncle Xia.”
Yangyang went forward and bowed. “Zhou Chenxi greets Uncle Xia.”
“Good child. May you have good health and long life.” Xia Tao smiled and hung a jade pendant carved into a pine tree around Yangyang’s neck.
Yangyang glanced at Zhou Jia, who smiled and said, “Yang’er, thank Uncle.”
Yangyang bowed obediently and thanked him. The two of them brought
Yangyang home to meet Madam Tang and began to set up the banquet..
