Chapter 97 Similar
"Is that so?" Liao Fuyu said, "It doesn't matter. When we get to Lin'an City, we'll try all the things you mentioned! If they taste good, we'll take some with us when we return to Beijing."
Ye Wanqing curved her eyes and said, "Okay."
When Liao Fuyu sat, her posture was a little awkward, as if she was uncomfortable.
Ye Wanqing glanced at her and handed her a cushion: "Use some cushion. The official road in the mountains is a bit rugged and the carriage is prone to bumps."
Liao Fuyu's ears turned red: "Hmm..."
She took the cushion and held it in her arms, blushing from her face to her neck: "Actually... I'm fine..."
Ye Wanqing smiled lightly: "Yeah."
Liao Fuyu's face turned even redder.
She grabbed the teacup and drank a whole cup of warm water before she spoke half shyly and half aggrievedly: "I had a quarrel with my husband."
"Why?" Ye Wanqing was a little surprised.
Liao Fuyu turned the teacup in her hand: "Just... these past two days, he has been lukewarm towards me... I feel bad..."
It turned out to be the case.
Ye Wanqing poured her a cup of tea and said, "You and him are newlyweds, so you still need to get used to each other. It's normal to have conflicts. Once you get familiar with each other, everything will be fine."
"Yeah." Liao Fuyu pursed her lips. "Actually, I was also wrong. This was my first time getting married, and I didn't know how to get along with my husband, so I was a little unreasonable. I also understand him. He used to occupy a yard and a bed by himself, and now suddenly I am here, so it's inevitable that he is not used to it. I married him and suddenly broke into his life. I should have been more accommodating to him and tried to adapt to his habits..."
She kept talking on and on, and after she finished, she actually coaxed herself into silence.
What a silly girl.
Ye Wanqing didn't find it funny, but instead felt a little uncomfortable.
Once a woman gets married, she feels as if she is wearing an invisible yoke, being bound all the time. After marriage, the longer she lives, the less she feels like herself.
From the moment she stepped into her husband's house, she lost her name and became a wife and a mother from then on.
When you live long enough, you may forget who you really are.
Liao Fuyu is now going through the first step.
Ye Wanqing thought for a long time before she said slowly, "Marriage is a matter for two people. It shouldn't be just one person adapting to the other. Two people should adapt to each other and respect each other. If you give in one step, you will have to give in step by step in the future. If you give in one less step one day, the other person will think it's your fault... Before you like someone, you should like yourself first."
Liao Fuyu scratched her head and said, "That's true, but if it really comes to that, I may not be able to control myself."
Ye Wanqing choked.
Newly married couples should be in love with each other, and it is normal for Liao Fuyu to be obsessed with Chu Xiaoyan.
She has said what she needs to say, and the rest is up to fate.
……
the next day.
As the sky brightened, the carriage entered the territory of Lin'an City.
Looking around, pink clouds are floating all over the mountains, which is breathtakingly beautiful against the backdrop of green distant mountains and blue sky and white clouds.
The carriages drove into the city unimpeded.
In two days, it will be the Peach Blossom Festival in Lin'an City. The city will be bustling with people coming and going, with accents from all over the place, and it will be very lively.
Ye Chenxi even saw several familiar faces.
As soon as he got off the carriage, several young and noble gentlemen came towards him in the inn. It turned out that they were students from other places who came to Lin'an City to enjoy the peach blossoms after the imperial examination.
Seeing Ye Chenxi, several people came forward with a smile to greet him: "Which noble lady did you bring to appreciate the flowers, young master?"
Ye Chenxi said: "Guess."
"Is it the princess?" A young man with red lips and white teeth asked, "May I have the honor to pay my respects to the princess?"
As soon as the words fell, the car curtain was lifted, revealing a handsome face.
Chu Anlan yawned lazily: "Want to pay respects? I'm the princess's fiancé, it's the same if you pay respects to me. Come on, who starts first?"
The group left in dismay. At this time, Chu Xiaoyan got off the carriage with a cold face: "If someone's mouth is not clean, he should be slapped on the mouth, and if someone's heart is not clean, his heart should be killed."
"What?" Chu Anlan asked.
Chu Xiaoyan looked at him coldly: "In the evening, find someone to drag those people to the mountain and beat them up. Do you understand what I mean?"
Chu Anlan was a little unhappy: "Chu Xiaoyan, you are so angry! Are you taking it out on me?"
Chu Anlan didn't know where Chu Xiaoyan got such a strong temper from.
Since the day of his marriage, Chu Xiaoyan has never given anyone a good look.
How strange.
Other newlyweds were all beaming with joy, but Chu Xiaoyan alone looked as if his ancestors' graves had been dug up, and he had a sour face towards everyone.
Chu Anlan tolerated him all the way.
While Ye Wanqing and Liao Fuyu were still in the car, Chu Anlan gnashed his teeth and said, "If you are angry, ask your prince's wife to help you. If you are not nice to us again, I will beat you up, believe it or not?"
I don’t know which word touched Chu Xiaoyan’s sore spot. He immediately frowned, bumped Chu Anlan’s shoulder hard, and went into the inn alone.
Chu Anlan was so angry that he laughed: "Chu Xiaoyan, what's wrong with you?"
When Ye Wanqing got out of the car, she saw Chu Anlan standing there rubbing his shoulders.
She asked, "Are you okay?"
"It doesn't hurt." Chu Anlan bared his teeth. "I just feel that he has been acting strangely these past few days. I don't know who has provoked him. The night before the wedding, he drank jar after jar of wine, and no one could persuade him. I tried to grab his jar of wine, and he punched me. Fortunately, he didn't hit me in the face."
Ye Wanqing frowned.
At this time, Liao Fuyu got off another carriage.
Chu Anlan wanted to say something, but chose to keep silent.
Ye Chenting and Ye Chenxi also got off the carriage.
Ye Chenxi slept all the way and yawned from sleepiness: "Finally we are here. If we continue to ride for a few more days, I will become thin. I will have a fish feast later. I heard that the river fish in Lin'an City is very delicious."
After saying that, I couldn't help drooling.
Ye Chenting laughed: "You slept and ate all the way. You just ate a pair of roasted rabbit legs this morning. Aren't you full yet?"
"My second brother still doesn't understand me well enough." Ye Chenxi touched his belly: "I am at the age of growing up, so I need to eat more meat to supplement my body. I can eat a rabbit, a chicken, and a deer leg in one meal."
Ye Chenting poked his forehead helplessly: "You are lucky to be born in the Princess's Mansion. If you were born in an ordinary family, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to support you."
Ye Chenxi raised his head: "I must have been a good person who did good deeds in my previous life."
Liao Fuyu silently interjected: "What if it's a pig?"
Ye Chenxi said: "Then I must be white and plump, obedient and well-behaved, and I can slaughter a big fat pig that can be used for a whole pig banquet."
Liao Fuyu thought for a moment and said, "Then we should be of the same kind."
"Sister Fu Yu, you really are worthy of being my cousin's wife!" Ye Chenxi said with emotion.
Liao Fuyu clasped her fists and said, "Nice to meet you!"
Chu Anlan held Ye Chenting's shoulders and laughed so hard that he fell over: "Hahaha, these two really made me laugh to death!"
Ye Chenting said helplessly: "Okay, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it after we get in."
Inn.
Ye Wanqing was assigned to Room No. 1.
After entering the room, Yingxiang and Qianxi put down their luggage first, and then began to check the furnishings in the room and tidy up the bedding.
The bedding was brand new, with a light scent of peach blossoms.
