Marry Her if You Love Her - C4
The boat Li Chenbai was on was the most commonly seen ship in Ba Shu. It had two rooms the size of a house, and the linoleum was covered with green bamboo as a window. It looked unremarkable on the outside, but the moment he entered the cabin, it was a completely different world.
The floor was covered with a snow-white blanket, and the walls and ceiling of the cabin were decorated with flowers. Under the plain window, small purple sandalwood flowers bloomed. Within the milky-white earrings of the Hongwen bottle, there were a few stalks of red Begonia that looked as if they were drunk.
In the corner of the cabin, the exquisite red dragon plate, phoenix copper incense burner, spewed out blue smoke, which gradually dissipated in the air. The sweet and refreshing aroma of the ambergris, which was like musk deer, lingered at the tip of his nose, giving off a casual and lazy sense of wealth.
In the darkness of the room, a white-clothed man lazily sat there, eating with one hand and drinking with the other.
The man’s expression was delicate and gentle as the corner of his mouth curved into a faint smile. Ripples of light penetrated through the gauze curtain and reflected on his snow-white clothes. It was as if a tree of beautiful jade was reflected upon him, filling the room with its splendor.
Hearing the sound, the man in white raised his eyebrows slightly and toasted Li Chenbai, who had lifted the curtain to enter the room. He lifted his head and drank the wine in his cup in one gulp, then smiled and said, “You’re late.”
His smile was like the morning sun breaking through the clouds. It was so bright and warm that it could not be forced to look at.
He took out a cup of wine and poured himself a cup before finishing it in one gulp. He smiled and said, “I say, my good brother has already calculated everything, why did he not arrange for a second wave of assassination. You were the one in charge here originally. Senior Brother Mu, I will thank you first. ”
“You and I are disciples of the same sect, so saying these things is foreign to us.” The white clothed man gently smiled. “I heard that His Majesty is very ill, so I wanted to pay my respects in the capital with you. I also have a companion along the way.” I came to look for you at King Shu’s mansion. Your deacon said that you came to Jia Zhou to play and I had no choice but to go to Jia Zhou. What about it? What’s the good thing about Jiazhou that hooked you? He won’t even be staying in his own manor. ”
The man in white was just joking, but he did not expect that what he said would cause Li Chenbai to be stunned. The man in white was just joking, but he did not expect that what he said would cause Li Chenbai to be stunned.
The man in white was surnamed Mu, and was the young prince of Mu Wang Manor in Yunnan. His name was Mu Ji, and he was Li Chengbai’s senior brother. Ever since Li Chenbai was eight years old, he had been studying with him. Until Li Chenbai received the title of emperor and moved to Chengdu.
The two of them had been together for seven years. Mu Qing knew him very well, and seeing how his junior apprentice brother looked embarrassed, he couldn’t help but be interested. He kept asking who the girl was, where she lived, whether she had visited her mother-in-law, when she was going to get married, and what her first child’s name was … Li Chenbai was drenched in sweat as he asked that question. He grabbed the jug of wine and shoved it into Mu Shun’s arms, “You talk too much, even the Wuliangye Elixir can’t stop your mouth! “No matter what, he is still the young prince of a noble family, yet he still wants to learn so vulgar and reckless from Hong Ying!”
“Vulgar?” What was vulgar? This is called the Heavenly Dao being normal and the most serious. ” Time slapped the table and laughed.
The current was so fast that the sound of the oars could not be heard. The two chatted and laughed for a while before returning to business.
Mu Wenwen curled his lips in disdain. “Your big brother Crown Prince is a bit too narrow-minded. He does all this dirty work, aren’t you afraid of it ruining his fortune?”
Li Chenbai sipped his wine and stared at his glass, a little hurt.” He is weak, and even if he were to ascend to the throne, he would probably not be able to hold on for many years. Hua’er was also too young. He was afraid that our younger brothers would harm Hua’er, so he was always on guard against us. His second brother had taken over the job in the Ministry of Industry a few years ago, but he had found a good excuse. I was only fourteen years old, and I had already asked my royal father to grant me a fiefdom and kick me out of the capital. Now it would seem that his misgivings are getting heavier and heavier.
Mu Taisui also sighed. “It’s the same everywhere. Our Mu King’s Manor is also fighting like a black-eyed chicken … In order to protect me, my father had to send me to the Central Plains. Other people would never know how bitter it is for us to live in luxury and wealth. ”
“Yeah. royal father is very sick. As his sons, we are either scheming against others or just guarding against them. It seems like there isn’t a single one of us who wholeheartedly hopes for his recovery. High above the ninth level of heaven, it was ice-cold, what interest did it have? “It would be better to have our brothers ride the rivers and take advantage of our grudges than to have our hearts at ease.”
Li Chenbai’s expression was dejected, while Mu Time hurriedly comforted him:
“Well, don’t think too much about it. If you sit in that position, you will have to bear the cost of the position. “But you, sooner or later you will have to fight your way out of this tiger’s den in the capital. We are all brothers, so how can we not be able to get through it?” As he spoke, he clinked the cup against Li Chenbai’s and downed the wine in it in one gulp.
Li Chenbai looked down at his glass of wine in silence.
The affairs of the world were like wine, they looked as calm as water, but in reality, there were countless flavors hidden within.
However, Li Chenbai, who was a passing visitor from Jiazhou, went straight to Chang’an, where he threw himself into the tiger’s den while the second son of the Ye family, who was born in Jiazhou and had been with the emperor for generations, welcomed his new wife with a happy air.
Old Granny Ye had two sons. Her eldest son, Ye Boyin, ran more than twenty acres of land left behind by her ancestors. Her second son, Ye Shiying, was selling snacks in the city. Ye Boying only had two daughters, and the old couple were open about it. They married their eldest daughter and hired an honest and honest son-in-law for their second daughter. The family was kind and friendly, and they were living quite well. In this way, only the two sons of his younger brother, Ye Shiying, would be able to inherit the bloodline.
Ye Jiayan, who got married today, was the first grandchild of the Ye Family to have a wife and a son who had just started a marriage. There was no need to mention his caution.
Ye Mo, however, relied on his parents’ lack of attention to her and dragged her and Deng Baiyi along, starting from his eldest brother’s sedan, all the way to his new home, and then back from his new home, and watched him cross the brazier, mount the saddle, pay respects to the church, and then follow her all the way to his new house, where he watched her eldest brother clumsily pick out his bride and cover her head, watch him throw his debts, tie her hair, drink together with the newlyweds, and tease his new wife with the neighbors … He was even more excited than if he were a newbie.
After that, the groom would go and entertain the guests, and the two best friends would go to the dining table to eat. Ye Wen, who was the sister-in-law, volunteered to stay behind to accompany his sister-in-law.
The new sister-in-law, Qi Shuang, was fair and clean. She lowered her head and rubbed the corners of her clothes as she smiled shyly. She looked very docile and amiable.
Ye Mo took a bucket of warm water to the new room and said with a smile, “Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law, you’re so pretty. I’m Tangerine. I’ll be your sis from now on. Are you tired? He must be hungry by now. “You wash first, I’ll go to the kitchen and take a look. I’ll bring something over for you to eat.” After the nagging, he smiled at Qi Shuang in a comforting manner, then jumped up and down and headed straight for the stove.
The Ye Family’s yard was small, so it could not hold all those tables. They just set up two stoves in the yard to cook, and the mats were spread out on the street.
The neighbors all came to the feast, and the entire street was tainted with a sense of joy. They chatted and laughed, and the place was filled with people. It was commonly known as the “Dam Banquet” or “Nine Bowl”.
The nine big bowls were obviously not limited to just nine bowls. Ye Wen held back the whites in his old mother’s eyes as he rummaged around the kitchen counter with saliva dripping from his mouth.
In the middle of a large piece of pork, there was the soft and sticky Sesame Rice Ball. The rich smell of sesame peanuts and the glutinous rice under the meat was mixed with brown sugar. Well, give your new sister-in-law a bit of it. Ye Zimu took out his chopsticks, and half of the bowl of Sweet ‘n’ Sour White disappeared.
It was the same braised white meat, but the same was true for the streaky pork. The salted braised white meat was much more reserved. The streaky pork first turned into water, then smeared the brown sugar to color. After going through the frying pan, he forced out the excess oil. This way, the meat pieces that were steamed out from the fire would turn soft and tender in the mouth. This was good as well. He would give two pieces to the bride as well.
Incense bowl, meat filling wrapped in egg skin steamed until soft glutinous teeth fragrant and refreshing, this is also good.
A white-roasted chicken! Ye Zimu’s eyes lit up. This is great! Red oil was coming out of the chicken’s mouth. It was glistening. The red oil was dripping down the meat. It was covered with white sesame seeds. It was fragrant but not greasy. It was spicy but not dry. It was full of fresh meat. Ye Wen picked out a few pieces of chicken leg meat and ran away before his old lady could reach him with a match.
When the meal was served to the new room, the new eldest sister-in-law, Qi Shuang, had already washed up and was sitting on the bed blushing from shyness.
Other than the salty and sweet braised chicken, she also picked up a plate of steamed meats, steamed beef and sausage, and other cold dishes. She also picked up some fried eggplants and pearl balls with chopsticks … With the exception of the greasy pickled peppers, the sweet and sour fish, and the boiled meat she felt was not so easy to bring, she basically had all the dishes on the noodles in one go. She couldn’t help but feel pleased with herself.
Qi Shuang stood up, moving, moving, and moving, stopping after three steps, finally moving to the table and taking a seat. Qi Shuang said his thanks in an almost inaudible voice, then picked up his chopsticks and began to eat.
Ye Zimo was stunned. His smile froze at the corner of his mouth and he quickly explained, “Why is there no such thing?” I felt that the fish had thorns, and I was afraid that it would be inconvenient for you to eat it, so I didn’t pick it up. “Mm, then sister-in-law, wait a moment. I-I’ll go bring you a plate.”
Qi Shuang stood up in embarrassment and waved his hands, “No, no, sister, I didn’t mean it that way, I didn’t want to eat it, I, I was afraid that my family would be disrespectful and the neighbors would have to see a joke.” As he spoke, he put down the bowl and chopsticks, stood up and moved to the side, rubbing his clothes until he was about to cry.
Ye Chimu could only console her by telling her not to worry. He wanted her to eat a good meal and rest early. It was not easy to get Qi Shuang An to stop.
After exiting the bridal chamber, Ye Zimu felt his stomach growl in hunger. As he thought of his new sister-in-law’s demeanor, he felt that this new sister-in-law wasn’t someone who would care about others. She sighed. Perhaps it was because she had just entered the room and was too nervous. Perhaps she would recover after a while.
