Quick Wear: Men Farming and Women Weaving

"Congratulations, my second brother, for getting engaged before me." Ye Qingbai took a rare leave to come back and attend the engagement party.

"Don't be envious, it will be your turn in a few days," Qi Wei teased his eldest son.

Mr. Nian, the Grand Secretary of the Hanlin Academy, and Ye Qingbai's teacher are of the same age, and they have a very good relationship.

Ye Qingbai knew that he was carrying the hopes of his father on his shoulders, so he didn't mind who his wife was, as long as she was gentle, virtuous and cheerful. He would get along well with her like his father did.

"My eldest brother may have to get married first, and the marriage between the princess and I will take half a year." Qi Xuanyi and the nanny knew that the royal marriage rules were complicated and protracted.

Ye Yihua and his wife were very pleased to see the brothers living in harmony and getting along well.

Three days later, when Ye Yihua was on duty at court, he met Lord Lu who pulled him aside and whispered to him that he had found out some clues. The situation was complicated and involved underground forces like the Dark Tower, which had a master behind them.

"General Ye, I have investigated the killer of that day and received a notice from the secret building." Lord Lu looked as if he didn't know how to explain.

Seeing his expression, Ye Yihua cursed in his heart that the old fox was unwilling to suffer even a little loss.

"Don't worry, Lord Lu. A servant will deliver it to your house later."

When Lord Lu heard what General Ye said, he was secretly delighted that he had an extra income so that he could go to the Treasure Pavilion and buy his favorite ornament.

"I found out that the person who placed the order was a little girl."

"I have a deep connection with you guys." Lord Lu glanced at him with a little sympathy.

"Thank you for letting me know." Ye Yihua's face turned pale. He never thought that the daughter he had raised for more than ten years would hire a killer to deal with her mother and son.

After leaving the court, he returned home and told Qi Wei but kept it a secret from her.

Qi Wei clenched her hands and held the handkerchief tightly. She never thought that the daughter whom she had doted on for more than ten years, the daughter whom she had raised for more than ten years, would be so cruel as to send a killer to kill her son.

"I'm going to the Chen Mansion to see her"

Ye Yihua nodded silently. He was the one who was hit the hardest. He used to think that the girl he raised was kind, lively, proud and innocent, and he had never seen her other side: extreme and vicious.

The next day, the couple came to Chen's house to meet Chen Jiaojiao.

"General Ye and Madam Ye, how come you have time to come to my place?" Lord Chen greeted the two with confusion.

"Sir Chen, my husband and I request to meet Chen Jiaojiao as we have something to ask her," Ye Yihua asked in a deep voice with a gloomy expression.

"Of course you can." Lord Chen was puzzled. Did Chen Jiaojiao get into trouble again?

"Someone, please bring the Madam and the Second Miss over here," signaling the maid beside her to go to the backyard to inform the Madam and the Miss.

When Mrs. Chen and Chen Jiaojiao came to the front yard to entertain the guests, Chen Jiaojiao was a little scared and didn't want to go to the front yard. She walked slowly and hesitantly, but she still came to the front yard.

"Greetings, father and mother." Chen Jiaojiao saluted to Lord Chen and Madam Chen with very standard etiquette.

From this we can see that Chen Jiaojiao was trained very well by Madam Chen.

"General Ye and his wife are here to ask you something."

When Mrs. Chen heard what her husband said, she felt that something was wrong and thought that the little girl had caused her trouble again.

"Jiaojiao, let me ask you, when my wife and Xuanyi went outside to burn incense some time ago, did you send someone to hunt them down?"

When Chen Jiaojiao heard this, her whole body trembled, her face turned pale, and she tried hard to calm down.

"Daddy, I didn't." Chen Jiaojiao was used to calling General Ye daddy.

"Look up and look us in the eyes and say it again." Qi Wei's eyes revealed disappointment. She raised this daughter but she didn't expect her to have such a vicious heart.

Chen Jiaojiao raised her head tremblingly and looked at General Ye and his wife whom she had not seen for a long time.

The anger and grievance in his heart seemed to be about to be vented at any moment, and he impulsively shouted at the two of them.

"He took my place, he deserves to die"

"Daddy and Mommy, I am your daughter. These are all fake. I was falsely accused by others."

"It was that bitch Chen Yurong who framed me." Chen Jiaojiao hated Chen Yurong very much.

Lord Chen and his wife were about to collapse when they heard this. Even the emperor had heard about the uproar some time ago, and the Minister of Justice, Lord Lu, had already begun investigating.

"General Ye, I knew nothing about this." Lord Chen angrily slapped Chen Jiaojiao and apologized to Ye Yihua.

"We will definitely give you an explanation. We implore you not to report it to Lord Lu."

"Leave her alive, I don't want to see her again"

They understood what General Ye meant and decided to spare her life and not think of anything else.

"General Ye, Madam Ye, don't worry," Madam Chen immediately interrupted.

Ye Yihua and his wife didn't even look at Chen Jiaojiao as they said goodbye, and the relationship between father and daughter was severed from then on.

"Daddy, I was wrong!" Chen Jiaojiao shouted at Ye Yihua's back. She was about to rush forward but was caught by Mrs. Chen and slapped several times.

"You bastard, haven't you done enough to harm the Chen family?"

Lord Chen no longer showed mercy to her out of consideration for her past as an aunt, and did not stop the lady from teaching her a lesson.

"Send her to a nunnery, make her a nun, and keep her under strict supervision."

Four months later, there were many happy events in the General's Mansion. The eldest son got married, followed by the second son and Princess Huimin's wedding.

The Ye Mansion was filled with red double happiness characters, red silk was hung all over the courtyard, and maids and servants were walking around busily.

"Here comes the bride"

"Congratulations, Second Master"

General Ye and his wife entertained the guests in the front yard. Ye Qingbai, who had just gotten married, brought his wife to help with the wedding banquet.

"One Worship"

"Second Worship Hall"

"Three Couples Worship Each Other"

"The ceremony is over"

Qi Xuanyi listened to the matchmaker's words and performed the formalities with the bride before returning to the bridal chamber.

"Are you hungry? I asked someone to prepare some food. You can have some later."

"I'm going to the front yard to toast and will be back later"

"Drink less," Princess Huimin answered in a low voice while sitting on the edge of the bed.

In the evening, all the guests said goodbye and left, and Qi Wei asked his son to go back to his room quickly.

"Yun Ying"

"Um"

"You can call me by my name"

"Xuan Yi," Princess Huimin called out shyly.

The room was filled with red and festive atmosphere. The two people were in a good mood and began to take a break and blew out the thick auspicious candles with dragons and phoenixes in them.

In a dilapidated room in a heavily guarded nunnery, lying on a wooden bed that was about to fall apart was the withered and pale Chen Jiaojiao, who had no hair at all and was wearing rough nun's clothes.

"dinner time"

"You are lucky today. The second son of the general's mansion and Princess Huimin are getting married. They are so happy that they are donating money to the nearby temples."

"The abbot was happy and asked the kitchen to add white flour to make steamed buns, one for each person."

The little nun pushed open the door, came in, put down the food and left.

"You shouldn't be like this, you should be like me, my stepping stone"

Chen Jiaojiao wanted to go crazy, but she didn't have the energy to destroy things crazily.

Qi Xuanyi didn't know all this, and Ye Yihua and his wife didn't tell him.

Less than two months after the marriage, the princess became pregnant, exactly at the same time as her elder sister-in-law.

A daughter was born the following year, and Qi Xuanyi loved her very much.

Qi Xuanyi likes a simple life and dislikes government affairs. He is assigned a sinecure by his father, which gives him more time to copy books in the palace and to accompany his wife and daughter for fun.

Princess Huimin didn't care what position her husband held. After all, there was no need for him to work hard at home, and the emperor did not allow royal family members to participate in state affairs.

Before Qi Xuanyi died of old age, he had copied tens of thousands of books for his family to pass down.

The Ye family started out with the eldest brother's lineage as a civil official, with great difficulty, and then the second generation became successful. Qi Xuanyi also laid a foundation for them, and the family's collection of books was well-known in the capital.
