Back to the marriage proposal, helping the incompetent husband to rise to the top

Chapter 138 Crab Fishing
Maybe it was because the rain was getting heavier, but the wind was damp and sticky when it entered Ye Wanqing's lungs, making her feel particularly irritated.

She looked away, no longer looking at Lu Jilian's pale face: "Lu Jilian, go back. The fate between you and me ended the moment you woke up from your dream. If you go to Rongguang Temple, add some lamp oil to Qingcheng's ever-burning lamp, and complete the father-daughter relationship. It's late at night, you should go."

At the end of the corridor, Ye Chenting and Ye Chenxi had also arrived.

A group of servants stood far away, not daring to come and disturb.

Ye Chenxi looked at this side and said something angrily, then Ye Chenting leaned over to touch his head and spoke to comfort him.

Ye Chenxi glared over here.

Then, Ye Chenting turned his head over again.

Ye Chenxi reluctantly grabbed two snacks and stuffed them into his mouth as if to vent his anger.

Ye Wanqing withdrew her gaze.

Under the dim light, Lu Jilian stared at her for a long time, his clear glass eyes gradually brightened and became a little cooler.

He covered his lips and coughed several times before straightening his back: "Okay."

Ye Wanqing frowned.

it is good?
What good?
Lu Jilian returned to his usual politeness and bowed to her: "My Lady, have a good sleep. I will take my leave first."

Ye Wanqing wasn't sure what he was going to do, but she still said indifferently, "Slow down."

Lu Jilian covered his lips and coughed, then turned around and went back the way he came.

When passing by Ye Chenting, he even said hello.

Ye Chenting was worried about him, so he personally held an umbrella and escorted him out of the house.

After everyone left, Ye Chenxi trotted over and said, "Sister, are you okay? This Lu Jilian is really a hypocrite! Are those people who praise him for being gentle, polite and a gentleman blind?! You can't let An Lan know that he grabbed your hand tonight, otherwise, An Lan will definitely go find him and fight him!"

As he said this, he lowered his head to look at Ye Wanqing's hand.

Fortunately, only my wrist was pinched red. I will go back and apply some blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment, and the red mark will be gone by tomorrow morning.

the second time.

This was the second time Lu Jilian arrested him.

That night at Rongguang Temple, her wrist was scratched by him until it was red and swollen and almost bleeding. No matter how she struggled, it was useless.

Tonight, it's the same again.

He kept saying that he would not let her down, but he would rather hurt her than let her go.

He is still the same Lu Jilian.

The only person he considers is himself.

Ye Wanqing looked at the dark rainy night, not knowing whether to feel sorry for herself or ridicule Lu Jilian's duplicity.

Ye Wanqing laughed at himself and calmed down: "It's getting late, brother, go back and rest early."

"I'll take you back to Jinghong Garden first." Ye Chenxi said.

"Okay, thank you." Ye Wanqing nodded with a smile.

Ye Chenxi hugged her wrist and said as they walked: "Don't worry, I won't tell An Lan what happened tonight. I will also ask the servants to keep their mouths shut."

Ye Wanqing glanced at him and said, "I hope so."

……

It rained all day and finally stopped before dawn the next day.

The capital city seems to be reborn after the rain.

On the first sunny day after the palace examination, the capital was bustling with activity.

Tomorrow is the day for the palace examination results to be announced. Afterwards, the court will hold banquets such as the Imperial Banquet, the Qionglin Banquet, and the Martial Arts Banquet. Therefore, while the weather is clearing up and the failed students have not yet left Beijing to return home, they have begun to invite groups to hold private banquets.

Ye Chenting was also among the invited guests.

Ye Chenxi is popular and has made many good friends recently, and has also been invited to banquets.

In the afternoon, the two brothers went out together.

Before leaving, Ye Chenxi slapped his forehead fiercely, turned around and said to Ye Wanqing: "Sister, I suddenly remembered something.

Today, Lu Jilian seems to be going to the same banquet as me, while my second brother and An Lan are going to another one. What should I do? My eyelids have been twitching all morning. "Ye Chenting raised his sleeves and touched Ye Chenxi's forehead with his palm: "Did you not sleep well last night? Do you have a fever?"

Ye Chenxi shook his head.

Ye Chenting asked again: "Are your eyelids twitching violently?"

"Very cruel." Ye Chenxi said obediently: "The eyeballs are about to pop out."

Ye Chenting gently pressed his fingertips against his eyelids, felt them for a moment, and retracted his fingers: "Well, it's really beating hard. Did you lie down and stay up late reading the storybook last night?

You are so young, but you stay up late at night and read storybooks by candlelight. What if you have an eye disease? Send someone to ask the court doctor to come and take a good look at you?"

Ye Chenxi rubbed his eyes: "I didn't stay up late last night, I went to bed at four o'clock."

Four more updates?

Isn't this considered staying up late?

Ye Chenting choked and was about to frown and say something.

Ye Wanqing, who had been standing quietly, said, "Brother, how about you not go out today and get together another day?"

"No." Ye Chenxi said, "The young master who is hosting me today is from Huaicheng. He will go home tomorrow after accompanying his brother to watch the results announcement."

Then he added, "His grandmother and the wife of Marquis Dingyuan were close friends before they got married, otherwise, Lu Jilian would not have been invited. To be honest, I don't want to stay with Lu Jilian at all."

Ye Wanqing said gently, "Then be more careful and drink less. Go home early after the greetings. I'll ask the kitchen to make you some of your favorite food."

"Okay, okay!" Ye Chenxi's eyes brightened up.

The two brothers helped each other dress, and went out talking and laughing.

Ye Wanqing looked for a moment and returned to Jinghong Garden.

After the rain, the grass and trees become more lush and green.

There was a cool breeze, and the wind was filled with the faint scent of flowers and plants.

Outside the courtyard, the voice of a passing servant came from afar.

"I heard that the lady wanted to eat crabs, so the master went to the lake to fish for her. But after fishing for the whole morning, he didn't catch a single crab."

"Yes, the master was very angry and asked the steward if he had not put crab seed into the lake last year and asked people to set up nets to catch them."

"The relationship between the master and the lady is really good."

"..."

Listening to the noise outside, Ye Wanqing couldn't help but smile.

The relationship between my father and mother is indeed good.

If the mother has some wrinkles under her eyes or the father's nails grow a little longer, the other person will always be the first to notice it.

Every night before going to bed, my father would personally apply beauty cream to my mother's face, and my mother would personally shave off my father's newly grown stubble.

The three brothers and sisters of the Ye family all grew up in the love and care of their parents.

In the previous life, only my second brother and sister-in-law continued the perfect love of my parents.

Fortunately, God was kind to her and gave her a chance to start over.

Ye Wanqing was in a very good mood and asked Yingxiang to prepare a pot of good tea and bring it to the lake to find them.

Next to the artificial lake.

When they heard that the master was going to fish for crabs, many servants gathered on the shore under the pretext of sweeping and pruning the flowers and plants by the lake, and watched openly.

On the willow bank, holding an umbrella.

Chu Yanrong sat on the soft chair, letting the maid massage her shoulders, and she was so comfortable that she almost fell asleep.

On the lake, Ye Hongwei was standing with his hands on his hips directing the guards to cast the net.

His serious expression looked as if he was directing a battle.

Ye Wanqing went over with her attendants: "Mother."

Chu Yanrong opened her eyes and waved gently: "Qing'er is here? Come and sit here with me."

Ye Wanqing sat down and asked curiously, "Did father catch crabs?"
