A Delightful Marriage with Twins

When they arrived at the Yi family residence, she realized that the ordinary family banquet that she had expected was very grand.

The Yi family had invited the eight great families of Yun City to announce to the outside world the existence of He Yi and their newly recognized great-granddaughter, Wan Wan.

It could be said that for He Yi and Wan Wan to be known by the upper class of Yun City, the Yi family had used all their connections to make today’s event unprecedentedly grand and elegant.

Because He Yi and Yi Liangze’s wedding date was too rushed, there wasn’t even an engagement ceremony. This banquet could be regarded as the last-minute engagement ceremony that the Yi family made up for the two of them!

Fortunately, she wore a blood-red embroidered half-sleeved dress. Otherwise, her overly simple makeup wouldn’t be able to match this grand occasion. At the same time, she also understood why Yi Liangze insisted on having Ji Xueshan send her diamond ring over — this was their engagement ceremony!

He Yi glared at Yi Liangze. He didn’t even inform her beforehand, making her look like a fool. If she hadn’t changed into a festive dress to take care of the elders of the Yi family, she would have been embarrassed today. She, the bride-to-be, was the only one who wore the simplest dress at the dinner party prepared for her and Yi Liangze.

However, there was no contempt in the way everyone looked at He Yi. On the contrary, there was some yearning or jealousy. She only wore two pieces of jewelry. One was the wedding ring that Yi Liangze gave her – pigeon eggs; the other was the red jade pendant that her baby gave her; the two priceless pieces of jewelry were gifts from her husband and son, respectively, it made countless women’s eyes turn red.

He Yi and Yi Liangze walked side by side, stopping from time to time to greet the guests. The atmosphere of the dinner party was grand and lively, and everyone looked at He Yi with respect and envy. It could be seen that they had no idea that she and Yi Liangze were having a conflict.

Yi Liangze took good care of her, blocking all the wine for her, and also asked the waiter to bring her ginger-jujube red tea to warm her stomach.

He Yi’s heart warmed up because these two days were her menstrual period.

She originally thought that the death of Qing Xing would greatly affect his passion and feelings for her. From then on, he would ignore her or not ask about her. At the very least, he would not be as meticulous as before. But it seemed that she was thinking too much. He treated her the same as before. There was no change at all.

It might be because of such an occasion. For the sake of the elders of the Yi family, and the reputation of the Yi family, or for… his reputation, he had to act until the end. If he wanted everyone to believe that they were in love, he had to give them something.

However, she still had a weak voice in her heart reminding her: if it was acting, he didn’t have to give her ginger jujube tea. He could have given her a cup of coke!

This was the difference! Even if he was acting, he still had her in his heart!

Under the guidance of Yi Liangze, she met the elders of the Yi family. From Old Master Yi, Old Lady Yi, Yi Jingye, Fang Yaqin, Yi Xianzong, Su Yuzhi, and Chu Piaoyun.

Chu Piaoyun also came, which surprised her. Because recently, Yi Liangze and Chu Tianyi had been at loggerheads, to the point of life and death. As Chu Tianyi’s aunt, although Chu Piaoyun was also related to the Yi family, she was far from being as close as her nephew, Chu Tianyi.

In addition, Chu Piaoyun had always been hostile towards He Yi and was even more opposed to the Yi family marrying her. She would not appear on such an occasion no matter what. But reality proved that anything was possible, and she had appeared in such a high-profile manner.

For some reason, when she saw Chu Piaoyun’s face that was dignified and without anger, she had an ominous premonition in her heart. She felt that Chu Piaoyun must be here for some reason. Otherwise, this person would not have the leisure to come and join in the fun.

Thinking of this, she decided to raise her guard and pay attention to Chu Piaoyun’s actions, afraid that this demoness would take the opportunity to cause trouble.

Other than the elders, there were even more juniors present. The two young masters of the Wen family had arrived, especially Wen Yongxiang. He and Fang Yu were known as the two humming generals. They were truly like-minded and had their funny effects. Wherever they went, there would be laughter. Of course, at the same time, they also seduced countless girls and won countless hearts.

He Yi did not let go of this opportunity. While Fang Yu was getting close to a beautiful female guest, she quickly took a photo and sent it to Wei Jiameng.

Sure enough, not long after, Wei Jiameng called.

He Yi took the phone and hid behind the flower rack to answer the call.

“He Yi, where did you see Fang Yu?” Wei Jiameng asked pitifully.

That’s right, not angry, but pitiful.

Hearing Wei Jiameng’s useless tone, she sighed. “In the Yi family. There’s a dinner party here! It’s very grand. If one has a wife or a girlfriend, they should come together. Didn’t Fang Yu mention it to you?”

“Oh, maybe it’s not convenient!” Wei Jiameng whispered, “At such a grand occasion, his mother should be here too!”

“Yes!” That was true. He Yi glanced at Chu Piaoyun, who was sitting upright, through the gaps between the flowers. “Up until now, his mother still hasn’t accepted you!”

Of course, she wouldn’t accept her! He Yi believed that as long as Empress Chu was still alive, she would never accept her!

“Take it slow, we… are still young!” Although Wei Jiameng was sad, she did not have any intention of blaming Fang Yu. “He Yi, I wish you a good time tonight. Remember, make the elders happy!”

Make the elders happy! He Yi hung up the phone and could not help but sigh secretly. Yi Liangze had once said that as long as the children were healthy and happy, it was the best gift she could give to the elders of the Yi family!

He Yi walked out and began to pour wine for the elders. The specially appointed host of the banquet spoke eloquently with many words of blessings and gratitude, adding to the atmosphere at the scene.

She poured the wine with her own hands, then brought it over with her own hands and watched the elders drink it. As long as they drank it, it would be an acknowledgment of her as the future young madam of the Yi family.

All the elders would not have any objections. Even Su Yuzhi did not show any displeasure. She smiled and drank the wine in her cup. Finally, it was Chu Piaoyun’s turn.

He Yi was a little nervous. After so many years of being intimidated by Chu Piaoyun, she was more or less afraid. However, she could still firmly control her emotions. Her hand that was holding the wine cup was so steady that it did not tremble at all. “Aunt, Please!”

Sure enough, Chu Piaoyun did not take the cup of wine. The corners of her mouth curled up into a sneer with deep sarcasm. Using a voice that could be heard by all four of them, he said, “I misheard you just now. I thought you called me Aunt!”

The faces of all the guests changed as they began to whisper to each other. This was because everyone knew that He Yi was once Chu Tianyi’s ex-wife. Naturally, she used to call Chu Piaoyun Aunt.

This was an open secret. Who would have thought that Chu Piaoyun would reveal it at this time? It seemed like she was trying to ruin the situation.

When she heard Chu Piaoyun making trouble, she was not that nervous. The most terrifying enemy was the enemy that did not make a move. This was because you did not know what she was planning to do. When she made her move, she would be able to calm down and deal with it calmly.

So, the purpose of Chu Piaoyun’s trip tonight was to humiliate her!

He Yi sneered in her heart. Since she wanted to humiliate her on purpose, then she would let her see who would be more embarrassed tonight.

“Aunt doesn’t look old, why is she like a woman in menopause?” He Yi pursed her lips and opened fire with a smile. “You’re Liangze’s Aunt, and you’re also my Aunt. How could you mistakenly think that I’m calling you Aunty? Could it be that you’re still thinking about your good-for-nothing nephew?”

“…” Chu Piaoyun’s triangular phoenix eyes suddenly turned cold, and a cold light stabbed toward He Yi like a knife.

He Yi, however, was not afraid at all. Gazes could not kill people. If it were possible, she would have already dismembered the Chu family’s aunties and nephews a thousand times. She blinked her eyes, and continued, “A long time ago, I called you ‘aunt’ When I married the Zhongshan wolf by mistake. Back then, I was pregnant with Wan Wan and your nephew took advantage of the situation to deceive me into marrying him. It was a marriage in name but not in reality. It was all for the sake of scheming for the He family’s assets. After giving birth to the child, my marriage with him completely ended. He illegally occupied the He family Business and ancestral residence. Now that he has been prosecuted by me, he is facing at least three charges. He might even end up in prison!”

Chu Piaoyun’s beautiful face was filled with resentment and awkwardness. She looked around and sure enough, some of the people covered their mouths and chuckled while others whispered to each other. It was obvious that they were all discussing Chu Tianyi who was currently in jail.

Being targeted by Yi Liangze, Chu Tianyi’s situation was undoubtedly not good. If all three charges were confirmed (he could not escape most of them), then it would not take an alarmist to say that he would end up in jail.

“Nonsense! They are all false accusations!” Chu Piaoyun was a little uneasy and defended his nephew on the spot. “It’s all your fault for instigating the Liangze to frame Tianye…”

“Aunt, you must be old and confused!” He Yi seemed to be very surprised. She pointed at the lively banquet venue and said, “This is a festive day for everyone to gather together. You should save these words for the court to tell the judge. Why do you keep saying them here? We are not interested in these things. If Aunt can’t bear to see our family reunite, it would be great if she could keep her eyes out of sight and her heart out of mind. Why did she have to come looking for trouble?”

Being ridiculed in public made Chu Piaoyun’s lungs explode. Her fingers trembled as she said in a trembling voice, “You… you…”

“I’m sorry, the children and I are very happy now!” He Yi’s tone was very apologetic, but there was no trace of apology in her expression. “Baby is my biological son, and Wan Wan is also the Yi family’s pampered little princess. Our family will be reunited soon, and it did not go according to Aunt’s wishes. I’ve disappointed you!”

Chu Piaoyun staggered and almost fell.

“Mom, be careful!” Fang Yuan quickly supported Chu Piaoyun while giving He Yi an indignant look. “Don’t be so pleased with yourself!”

“Of course I’m pleased!” He Yi retorted, but her gaze was fixed on Chu Piaoyun, her words were as sharp as knives. “Not only do I have both children, but I also have a husband who dotes on me very much. This is countless times better than Aunt. I’m very satisfied!”

Chu Piaoyun’s husband had died young, and she was supporting the huge Wanfang Corporation. It could be said that she was not simple. However, she was a widow after all, so it was inevitable that it would be awkward on certain occasions. However, with her status, most people would not make things complicated for her, nor would they even dare to make things difficult for her.

Who would have thought that He Yi would not show any mercy at all? She ridiculed Chu Piaoyun in front of everyone, causing an uproar.

He Yi’s actions were undoubtedly unkind. However, after weighing the pros and cons, she still decided to strike back sharply, not showing Chu Piaoyun any mercy. This way, she could stop those gossiping mouths and at the same time, slap Chu Piaoyun in public.

After all, she was a junior. No matter how much she tore her, as an elder, Chu Piaoyun wouldn’t be able to gain any advantage.

“You…” Chu Piaoyun was about to fly into a rage, but due to her status as an elder, she couldn’t scold or hit him. Moreover, she was the one who initiated the trouble. He Yi repaid tit for tat and didn’t give in at all. Although they weren’t the same, she was at a disadvantage because of her status as an elder. She was disrespectful to the elders and lost on the spot.

“Aunt, even if you miss me and want me to call you aunt, that disappointing nephew of yours has long ruined the fate between me and you! I’m sorry, I don’t miss this at all! You’d better wake up as soon as possible. Loss is loss. No matter how regretful or sad you are, it’s useless!” He Yi slowly used a gentle and clear voice to “Comfort” Chu Piaoyun, as she described the other party’s deliberate embarrassment as an unforgettable old friendship, and she was extremely disdainful of it.

Someone accidentally laughed out loud on the spot. This time, it was even more lively!

Not to mention Chu Piaoyun riding a tiger, even the elders of the Yi family were embarrassed.

“Piaoyun, what’s wrong with you?” Old Lady Yi spoke sternly. “Today is a happy day. Do you have to make it so unpleasant? Although He Yi is a good girl and losing a niece-in-law like her hurts your heart and lungs, losing her is losing her. No matter how much you regret it, it’s useless! Now that she is the daughter-in-law of our Yi family, don’t be sad and regretful. Accept the truth!”

After being reprimanded by Old Lady Yi, Chu Piaoyun’s expression became even more unsightly. This time, she deliberately made it difficult for her to leave He Yi. What was even more infuriating was that Old Lady Yi’s words gave the appearance of the elders of the Yi and Chu families fighting over He Yi’s position as his wife. This indirectly raised He Yi’s status.

Chu Piaoyun wanted to say something else, but the more she tried, the more mistakes she made. Naturally, she would be in a horrible state.

The scene today had been specially prepared by the Yi family for He Yi. Chu Piaoyun coming to find trouble was indeed looking for trouble. Even though she knew this logic, she still could not help it. It could only be said that she had always been proud and arrogant, and she was used to being the one with the highest authority!

Fang Yuan and Wen Siling quickly pulled Chu Piaoyun to the side and comforted her in a soft voice.

He Yi said to the guests generously, “Aunt’s nephew is in prison. She was hurt by the scene and her mood was bad. It was hard for her to control herself for a moment. Even if she lost her composure a little, everyone should understand!”

With this, He Yi easily went from being at loggerheads with Chu Piaoyun to being able to forget about the past with a smile. She helped to plead with the guests not to blame Chu Piaoyun for losing her composure because Chu Piaoyun was too pitiful. Even if she lost her composure in public, she still begged everyone not to laugh at her.

“Who wants to hear you say these hypocritical things?” Chu Piaoyun could not take it anymore. Ignoring Su Yuzhi who was trying her best to assure her, she fiercely shook off Su Yuzhi’s hand. She completely ignored Su Yuzhi’s gaze and wanted to say something, but she hesitated, she only shouted at her, “Tianyi will be fine! The person who framed him will suffer the consequences. If you don’t believe me, we’ll just wait and see!”

With that, Chu Piaoyun pushed away Su Yuzhi who was trying to stop her, and left with her daughter, Fang Yuan, without looking back.

The elders of the Yi family did not stop Chu Piaoyun, and their expressions were a little unpleasant. Old Lady Yi said unhappily, “Even if it’s hard to lose a daughter-in-law like He Yi, one still has to control herself on such an occasion! I didn’t expect her to be so impatient! It seems like she was too regretful that she couldn’t keep He Yi in the Chu family. She felt bad, so she lost control!”

The guests quickly agreed and expressed their sympathy for Chu Piaoyun. Their eyes were filled with mockery.

However, after Chu Piaoyun’s ruckus, He Yi’s position became even more unbreakable!

The elders of the Yi and Chu families snatched her away in public, neither giving in. This raised He Yi’s position once again, attracting the envy of everyone. Even those who had previously gossiped about her in private did not dare to say anything more now.

He Yi was certain of victory, but she also had some faint doubts. If Chu Piaoyun’s goal was to come and humiliate her, then she was asking for humiliation. How could Chu Piaoyun not understand that she could take advantage of the Yi family’s territory? Since she knew that it was not beneficial, why did she force it? Or, Chu Piaoyun had another motive for coming here. The argument with her was just an unintentional quarrel!

With Chu Piaoyun’s departure, He Yi’s state of mind was much more stable. No matter what this person’s motive was since he had already left, she could relax a little.

At this moment, Wen Li’an and Pei Jie walked over. While the two men were talking, Pei Jie secretly tugged at He Yi. She winked and secretly gave her a thumbs up. “You won beautifully!”

He Yi smiled but did not say anything. In her heart, she thought, I should have won by luck!

If Chu Tianyi was not facing prison, the situation tonight would not have been so easy to control. From the looks of it, Yi Liangze played an important role.

He Yi couldn’t help but look at Yi Liangze. He saw that although he was talking to Wen Li’an, his eyes were also looking at her. The two unintentionally met each other’s eyes. They were both surprised and she hurriedly avoided his gaze.

Yi Liangze’s eyes darkened and he pursed his lips.

The children were having a lot of fun together. Baby, Wan Wan, Yang Yang, Ke Ke, Yu Tong, and Xiao Fan were a total of six to seven children. They could almost form a class together.

These children were undoubtedly very mimetic. Whatever a child did, all the children would follow suit.

“Auntie He, I want to drink the wine you poured!” Yang Yang ran over with a drink cup in his hand and asked He Yi with a grin.

He Yi was stunned and felt a little awkward for a moment.

Yi Liangze reached out his big hand and pinched Yang Yang’s face. He corrected him, “You have to call her second sister-in-law, silly boy!”

Yang Yang was a little puzzled, “Why do they all call her Aunt He, but only I call her second sister-in-law!”

Children didn’t want to be too special, which would make them seem unsociable.

“Because your seniority is higher than theirs!” Yi Liangze rolled his eyes and lectured, “It’s your second brother’s wife, of course, you have to call her second sister-in-law. If you call her Aunt, what should I call her?”

With that said, everyone laughed kindly.

Wherever there were children, there would be liveliness, especially a group of children who were between five years old and at most eight years old. Their words were naive, so naturally, there were many jokes.

Even though he called her by the wrong name, Yang Yang’s original intentions did not change. “Whatever, I want second sister-in-law to pour me wine to drink!”

Just because she poured wine and toasted the elders of the Yi family one by one, Yang Yang felt that it was fun, so he also wanted her to serve him like this.

Yi Liangze flatly rejected, “My wife can’t serve you!”

After being rejected, Yang Yang displayed the skills of a child, crying and throwing a tantrum.

He Yi did not want to compete with a child in public, as that would make her look ungentlemanly. “Stop crying, I’ll pour it for you!”

As she said this, she went to the beverage area and poured a glass of orange juice with her own hands, then brought it over and handed it to Yang Yang.

Yang Yang took it and gulped it down in front of everyone. After achieving his goal, her tears dried up, and she grinned again.

Of course, the consequence of He Yi doing this was that she needed to pour a glass of juice for all the children!

After the children received the drinks that He Yi poured personally, they all ran to the side to play in satisfaction.

He Yi yanked Wan Wan and the baby. When she looked at her beloved children, she could not help but shed tears of excitement. “These few days, mommy has been busy with the factory matters and hasn’t had the time to visit you guys. How are you guys doing?”

Baby had grown up in the Yi family, so naturally, he was accustomed to it. As for Wan Wan, it was really rare for her to be able to hold on for so long without crying and wanting to go home.

“Auntie He, how many more days will it take for you to marry into our family?” Baby blinked his big black eyes and asked expectantly.

He Yi smiled sweetly and said, “A few more days! Your father and I will have our wedding. You have to call me mom now!”

It was worth it for the baby to call her mom from now on. He Yi thought self-deprecatingly, but she couldn’t ignore the hope and expectation that rose in her heart for marriage.

It was just for the children to have a complete family. It was just for the baby to call her mom legitimately. It was just for a strong man to join hands with her to protect Wan Wan.

He Yi thought so to remind herself not to be hot-headed and get lost in the illusion of prosperity.

“Yes! Yes!” The baby nodded vigorously like a chicken pecking at rice. The little guy who had always been very principled even said, “I can call you mom now!”

“Really?” He Yi was excited. She held Wan Wan with one hand and Baby with the other. “Baby, call me Mommy!”

The baby asked sweetly, “Squat down!”

He Yi squatted down. The baby walked over and kissed her cheek. He called out sweetly, “Mommy!”

“…” At this moment, no words could describe her excited and happy mood. She hugged the two babies in her arms and wept with joy.

“Mommy, don’t cry.” Wan Wan was her mother’s caring little cotton-padded jacket. She reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Her soft little hands caressed the tears at the corners of her eyes. He Yi’s heart was about to melt. “Wan Wan, do you miss Mommy?”

“Yes!” Wan Wan answered without hesitation. “Wan Wan misses Mommy. Wan Wan wants to go home with Mommy!”

She had been staying in the Yi family obediently. Firstly, the elders of the Yi family had been very good to her. Secondly, the elders of the Yi family had promised her that they would let her go home with He Yi after the banquet tonight.

This was because the Yi family had already made arrangements. On the day of the wedding, He Yi would marry with Wan Wan into the Yi family. This way, more people could witness the return of the mother and daughter.

Everything seemed to be progressing in a satisfactory direction. He Yi was also very satisfied with the arrangements of the Yi family. She caressed the two beautiful and cute children lovingly, thinking that in the future, they would be able to grow up safely under the protection of the big tree, of the Yi family. They would no longer have to endure the torture of the wind and rain. She felt a wave of relief.

The three mothers were whispering to each other. Suddenly, there was a clamor from the other side. It seemed to be mixed with cries and screams.

What happened? He Yi looked up and saw that all the guests were running to the other side. It seemed like an accident had happened.

He Yi was worried that the children would be pushed or trampled by the crowd. She quickly held their hands and watched from afar. She did not dare to go forward to watch the commotion.

At this moment, she heard Su Yuzhi’s heart-wrenching cry, “Yang Yang, what happened to you!”

Yang Yang? He Yi could not help but frown, and at the same time, her heart skipped a beat.

Then, she heard Old Lady Yi’s panicked voice, “Quickly get the family doctor to come over and take a look. What’s going on?”

Soon, the Yi family’s special family doctor, Doctor Zhang, rushed over with a first-aid kit. The guests immediately made way for him. He walked over and saw Yang Yang, who was foaming at the corner of her mouth and convulsing non-stop.

Doctor Zhang was shocked when he saw this. He quickly said, “Food poisoning!” He quickly put down the medical kit and ordered his assistant, “Quickly get the emetic!”

The scene was chaotic!

There was a child who had food poisoning! This was too terrifying! The guests did not know what he had eaten or if they had eaten anything. When they thought of this, their expressions became very ugly.

Especially those who had brought their children, they were even more panicked. They pulled the child and asked if he was feeling unwell.

Fortunately, there was a family doctor, so the rescue did not waste any time. After he was fed with the emetic agent, Yang Yang vomited out most of the food he had eaten that night. Then, he was sent to the hospital to have his stomach pumped.

The good banquet was messed up, and the festive atmosphere was replaced by panic. Old Lady Yi was also sent to the hospital because of her shock and excitement. Her blood pressure was elevated.

“How could food poisoning happen?” Su Yuzhi cried like a pear blossom in the rain. She held onto Doctor Zhang and refused to let go. “Doctor Zhang, help me find out what Yang Yang ate!”

Doctor Zhang comforted her, “Second madam, don’t panic. I’ll get my assistant to take it to the laboratory right away.”

Half an hour later, the test results came out. It was rat poison!

It was a type of strong poison. Fortunately, the dosage was not very strong. It was just vomiting and convulsing. It was not fatal.

Hearing this, Su Yuzhi almost went crazy. “Who poisoned my son? Who was so crazy that he would not let a child alone?”

Yi Xianzong pulled his wife and advised, “Yuzhi, calm down! I’ll find out!”

Immediately, the waiters and servants that were temporarily sent over from the star-rated hotel recalled what Yang Yang had eaten and drank.

When all the food was found and examined one by one, there was nothing wrong. Moreover, almost all the guests at the scene had eaten these things. If there was poison, why was Yang Yang the only one who had symptoms of poisoning?

In the end, the maid found the cup that Yang Yang drank from and brought it to Doctor Zhang.

Doctor Zhang took it over and smelled it, and his expression immediately changed. “The drink inside has the smell of rat poison!”
