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

Chapter 247 This Account

Little Pomegranate finally pricked up its ears, grunted, and then jumped onto the cushion where Ye Chenxi had sat, lowering its head and sniffing inch by inch.

After sniffing, he lay down and stared at Ye Chenxi.

Ye Chenxi glared at it angrily: "What are you looking at?"

The little pomegranate made a gentle "嘤" sound at him.

Chu Anlan laughed enough, and then he picked up a piece of fish fillet with bones from the special lotus porcelain plate beside him with bamboo tongs: "Yan Shiliu, open your mouth."

Little Pomegranate's eyes lit up, he raised his head, picked up the fish, and swallowed it in one gulp with a roar.

After swallowing it, he stared at Chu Anlan eagerly again.

Chu Anlan picked up another piece of fish: "Ah..."

The little pomegranate opened its mouth.

The man and the fox cooperated very well.

Ye Chenxi swallowed the crab meat porridge in a hurry and said sadly: "These days, it's better to be a fox!

As a fox, you have no worries about food and drink, you can play after eating and sleep after being tired, and you are also worshipped like an ancestor.

As a man, you need to study and practice riding and archery every day..."

Ye Wanqing poured a cup of ginger and jujube tea: "Are studying and riding and shooting really that boring?"

"Yes!" Ye Chenxi answered firmly.

The corners of Ye Wanqing's lips moved slightly.

Chu Anlan picked up a piece of fish and turned to Ye Wanqing and said, "You who love to study don't know the pain of those of us who don't love to study.

For us, going to school is like being tortured.”

Going to school is like being tortured?
Ye Wanqing chuckled: "No matter how boring men's schoolwork is, it is not as boring as women's schoolwork.

We girls were taught boring and rigid books in school, such as "The Virtues of Women" and "The Admonitions for Women".

In addition to learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting like men, they also need to learn etiquette, needlework, flower arrangement, account bookkeeping, and flowers and plants..."

Chu Anlan and Ye Chenxi both took a deep breath when they heard this.

Chu Anlan felt distressed: "You have so many things to learn, you must have a lot of homework, right?"

"Yes." Ye Wanqing nodded: "In addition to the lessons in the school, the palace ladies will also arrange extra lessons for me.

During every New Year, I would copy some scriptures for the Queen Mother."

Chu Anlan was stunned.

Ye Chenxi chimed in, “Everyone else says that my sister is both talented and beautiful, and they think she was born that way.

She is indeed intelligent and hardworking.”

Chu Anlan felt more and more distressed.

Looking at Ye Wanqing's gentle and soft face, her childhood appearance vaguely emerged in his mind.

The little girl, who looked like a snowball, was soft and well-behaved, sitting solemnly at the desk like a little adult...

Will my future daughter look like Qing'er?
Of course I will!

Chu Anlan supported his chin with one hand and looked at Ye Wanqing with a smile, unknowingly smiling a little foolishly.

As soon as Ye Chenting got outside the door, he saw his brother-in-law staring at his sister and grinning foolishly.

When Qianxi stepped into the courtyard, he saw Ye Chenting standing outside the door, followed by two servants holding wooden boxes.

Qianxi was puzzled: "Second Young Master?"

Hearing the sound, the three people in the room all looked up at the door.

Ye Chenting smiled and said, "I was asked to stay and talk with my colleagues for a while. I came back a little late. Have you guys finished your breakfast?"

"I'm eating now." Ye Wanqing stood up: "Second brother is back just in time, shall we join in?"

Ye Chenting nodded: "Okay."

Ye Wanqing asked the servants to bring the breakfast reserved for her second brother.

While eating, Ye Chenxi looked at the table: "Second brother, what's in the wooden box?"

Ye Chenting paused while drinking the porridge and replied, "It's a meeting gift for Xiao Fengnian." Meeting gift?
Ye Chenxi slapped his forehead suddenly: "Oh! I was too sleepy last night and forgot about this!

My gift is not ready yet! You guys eat first, I will go pick out the things I brought, or go out to the streets to see if I can find something suitable! "

Saying that, he was about to get up.

Seeing him like this, Ye Chenting felt three parts helpless and seven parts amused: "You, why do you only listen to half of what I say?
You're leaving before I've even finished talking.

I have already prepared your gift for you."

"Really?" Ye Chenxi's drooping eyes suddenly raised: "Then I don't need to prepare!"

"When has my second brother ever lied to you?" Ye Chenting said, "Eat well."

Ye Chenxi was so happy that he asked for another bowl of porridge.

After breakfast, Ye Wanqing asked her servants to prepare some supplements and medicinal herbs to be taken to Xiao Fengnian's house later.

After everything was ready, the four of them set out in a carriage.

Today, the sky is a bit gloomy.

On the way, Ye Wanqing lifted the car curtain and said, "Maybe it will rain in the evening."

Ye Chenting looked outside and said, "Tomorrow, I and other adults need to go to the river. I hope it won't rain tomorrow."

Ye Wanqing was curious: "Didn't they say that a summer corridor was built by the river? Where was the site of the palace chosen?"

"We have selected several locations for the palace." Ye Chenting said, "The closest one to Lin'an is thirty miles away."

"What's the point of building a training palace?" Chu Anlan sighed. "With this money, it's better to expand the capital. Or, dig the moat wider.

Once the pleasure boat entered, it was packed like dumplings.”

"That's right!" Ye Chenxi said, "During every New Year, the pleasure boats in the moat are so crowded that they can't move at all!
A while ago, I went to a pleasure boat with some classmates to complete our homework, and we were almost pushed off the deck into the water by another boat’s oar!

Fortunately, my classmate was quick-witted and pulled me back!

Thinking about it now, I still get angry! "

"Don't be angry, don't be angry." Chu Anlan patted his shoulder and said, "Who called you? Come back and I will help you get revenge."

"The Lu family." Ye Chenxi said angrily, "I didn't see clearly who it was, but he was from a branch family. When he saw the oar hit me, he immediately retracted his head, turned the boat around and ran away!"

The Lu family...

Chu Anlan continued to comfort him: "It doesn't matter if you didn't see clearly who it was. Since it was done by someone from the Lu family, it should be blamed on their head, Marquis Dingyuan."

Ye Chenxi suddenly realized: "An Lan, you are right!"

"Yeah!" Chu Anlan continued, "However, Dingyuan Hou is old, and it's not good to hit him with an oar.

Therefore, this account can be put on the head of the next head of the Lu family."

"I understand!" Ye Chenxi suddenly realized: "This is all Lu Jilian's fault!
Who told him to be the next head of the Lu family, but not even discipline the clan members properly! "

Whenever Chu Anlan and Ye Chenxi are together, they love to stir up trouble and have verbal fights with each other.

Afterwards, I forgot about it as if I had lost my memory.

However, Ye Chenting still reminded: "Ji Lian is highly valued by the emperor and the prince, you must not act too recklessly.

If the matter gets out of hand, the Emperor and the Crown Prince will definitely stand on his side.

If anyone from the Lu family dares to bully you, please let me know and I will help you deal with it."

Ye Chenxi muttered: "I know..."

Chu Anlan smiled and said, "I know."

Ye Chenting looked at the two of them meaningfully.

Chu Anlan immediately looked away guiltily and lifted the car curtain: "Oh, it's so lively today!"

Ye Chenxi followed suit and lifted the car curtain: "There are so many things to eat and drink on the street!
What is this? It smells so good and sweet! "

"It's milk glutinous rice cake." Ye Wanqing ordered outside the carriage: "Qianxi, go buy two for the second young master."

Qianxi responded, “Yes.”

Ye Chenxi watched eagerly.
