When the sun rose from the horizon, there was finally no movement in the room.

MO Yuan, who was guarding outside the door, secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She first replied to Ji Luo, then turned back to the kitchen and extinguished the fire in the stove.

The water in the three vats was already empty. She rubbed her sore arms, picked up the bucket, and went to the courtyard to fetch water. She couldn’t help but think to herself that her Young Master and Miss were too good at stirring up trouble. However, she didn’t know where Thirty Thousand had gone. There wasn’t even anyone to boil water for her.

Thinking of this, she stopped fetching water. It seemed that she had not seen Thirty Thousand since Song Jingchen entered his new room last night.

In the new room, Shen Yijia closed her eyes and let Song Jingchen help her change into clean clothes. She felt a hand on her waist. She looked up and whispered in a muffled voice, “Hubby, don’t...”

After saying that, she seemed to feel that it was not safe enough. She rolled to the side of the bed with the blanket and wrapped herself up like a silkworm before falling asleep in relief.

Song Jingchen’s hand froze in midair. The corners of his mouth twitched as he looked at the person who wanted to stay far away from him. Was this girl going to throw him away after all that?

Recalling what had happened the entire night, his expression was a little unnatural. Initially, he was prepared to let Shen Yijia off after the ceremony.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yijia did not know what was good for her. She said that he did not understand and did not know how to do it. After saying that, she even took out a booklet and said that she wanted to teach him.

Which man could tolerate this?

Song Jingchen couldn’t help but feel sorry for her. Since she had taken the initiative to provoke him, he naturally couldn’t restrain himself.

In order to prove himself, he forced her to practice the contents of the booklet.

If not for the fact that she was really tired, he could still...

After all, he still had the knowledge of the three books that this girl had once given him.

Just as he was hesitating if he should follow, Shen Yijia rolled back first.

Song Jingchen smiled and tilted his head to look at the defenseless person in his arms. His heart was filled again. He reached out and brushed away the hair on her cheek. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead gently. “Go to sleep.”

On the other side, Xuanyuan Ce, who had been hungover all night, came early in the morning. He had taken advantage of the ceremony yesterday and came to drink tea again today.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Xuanyuan Ziming arrived.

“Why are you here?” Xuanyuan Ce asked strangely.

According to what he knew, his brother had already begun to hand over the matters in the imperial court to him. He was just waiting to choose a good day to announce the imperial edict to confer the title of crown prince. This kid shouldn’t be so free.

Xuanyuan Ziming spread his hands. “There’s a family banquet prepared in the palace tonight. I’m here to pass on a message on Father’s behalf.”

Xuanyuan Ce frowned. “Jiajia and Ah Luo might not be willing to go.”

“Father guessed it. He said that he wanted to discuss the cooperation between the two countries with Brother-in -law Song.”

Xuanyuan Ce thought to himself, “As expected of my brother.”

Xuanyuan Ziming looked around and was about to ask where his family was when he thought of something and paused. He quickly took a few steps around Xuanyuan Ce and said happily, “Uncle, are you able to see now?”

He didn’t say anything when he came in just now.

Xuanyuan Ce walked around him and walked straight into the main hall. “I can’t see.”

Xuanyuan Ziming was speechless.

Chu Feng suppressed his laughter at the side. It was all thanks to Miss’s two punches yesterday that His Highness’s eyes could recover. If he had known earlier, he would have taken two punches. Why did His Highness have to be blind for more than half a month?

When Ji Luo came over, she saw two uninvited guests sitting calmly in the main hall.

There were still teacups beside the two of them. She glanced at MO Yuan.

MO Yuan shook her head, indicating that she didn’t make the tea for them.

Since it wasn’t MO Yuan, it could only be Chu Feng brought by Xuanyuan Ce.

Xuanyuan Ziming stood up awkwardly. “Imperial...” Ji Luo glanced at him and he quickly corrected himself. “Madam Ji.”

Ji Luo nodded and asked indifferently, “Why are you here so early in the morning?”

Xuanyuan Ziming repeated what he had said to Xuanyuan Ce.

Since this concerned the cooperation between the two countries, Ji Luo didn’t say anything else. She sat down in the chair opposite him. Seeing that he was still standing, she said, “Ah Chen and Jiajia haven’t woken up yet. Take a seat first.”

Xuanyuan Ziming glanced at Xuanyuan Ce and coughed lightly. “Since I’ve already delivered the message, I’ll be off.”

Although he came here to avoid being idle, the atmosphere was clearly wrong. How stupid was he to stay here?

Xuanyuan Ziming left with Little Zhu Zi.

Ji Luo looked at Xuanyuan Ce. “Why are you here again?”

Xuanyuan Ce was like a student who had been asked a question by his teacher. He quickly sat up straight and said seriously, “Don’t we have to serve tea on the second day of our marriage? I’m here to drink tea.”

Ji Luo frowned slightly. “Have you forgotten that Jiajia is a married woman? Even if they’re supposed to serve tea to their parents according to the rules, it’s only on the day of return three days later. Why are you here for tea today?”

Did he really think that Ah Chen had married into the family?

Xuanyuan Ce froze. He had really forgotten!

“Ahem, then I came to see you,” he said innocently.

“What’s there to see?” Ji Luo retorted rudely. She was stunned. “You can see?”

Xuanyuan Ce pursed his lips and smiled. “It’s all thanks to our daughter.”

At first, Ji Luo didn’t realize that it had anything to do with Jiajia. When she noticed that there were obvious bruises under his eyes, the corners of her mouth twitched.

This person...

“Don’t you know how to apply medicine?” she said helplessly.

Xuanyuan Ce raised his hand and touched the corner of his eye. He gasped in pain and waved his hand indifferently. “I’m fine. It’s just a small injury.” Ji Luo couldn’t stand it anymore. “MO Yuan, get the medicine.”

Xuanyuan Ce was delighted. Ah Luo cared about him!

Meeting Xuanyuan Ce’s eyes, Ji Luo turned his head away and added, “It’s ugly and an eyesore.”

Xuanyuan Ce thought to himself, “I didn’t hear that. Ah Luo is just concerned about me.”

Ji Luo stayed silent.

Xuanyuan Ce thought that since he could not drink the tea his daughter and son-in-law offered him, he could at least have breakfast together. Unexpectedly, it was already noon, and there was no movement in the couple’s courtyard.

Ji Luo knew that they would definitely not be able to get up if they were up late, but she could not say this to Xuanyuan Ce openly. Otherwise, Xuanyuan Ce would think that she was eavesdropping on them.

She could only pretend not to know anything and wait with Xuanyuan Ce.

The longer he waited, the darker Xuanyuan Ce’s face became. After noon, the two of them still did not come over. He was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up. “That brat surnamed Song is too much.”

He was a man. How could he not understand the reason behind it?

Song Jingchen woke up with a knock on the door. The wedding candle had burned out at some point, and only faint light shone through the red curtain.

A knock sounded at the door.

The knocking continued, quick and soft. The person in his arms moved. Song Jingchen quickly pulled his arm out carefully, got out of bed, and put on an outer shirt to open the door. n,O-VEl(U.S.B(,/c-o.m

Outside the door, Thirty Thousand stood there anxiously. When he saw Song Jingchen come out, he hurriedly said, “Master, something bad has happened.”

Song Jingchen turned around and looked behind him. He closed the door and walked out as he put on his clothes. “Let’s talk in the study..”
