A life of ups and downs is pure joy

"Husband... I... I can't... stand it anymore..." Lin Qinghuan's face flushed and she gasped as she hugged Xiao Yi's neck tightly.

"Huan'er, you are so beautiful." Xiao Yi kissed Lin Qinghuan's seductive lips again. Listening to the soft and sexy sound coming from her throat, he completely lost himself and indulged in the tenderness of this moment.

As the dam burst at the last moment, Lin Qinghuan's fingers slowly loosened Xiao Yi's arm, and she closed her eyes and breathed softly. Xiao Yi lay beside her for a while, then looked at his wife who still had her eyes closed and the blush on her face had not faded, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

"Huan'er, you are very powerful now." Xiao Yi whispered softly in Lin Qinghuan's ear. She opened her eyes and took a look at the face close to her. Her face, which was almost fading, turned red again.

"You... stop talking." Lin Qinghuan was made incoherent by Xiao Yi.

"Huan'er, the best decision I have ever made is to marry you." Xiao Yi suddenly hugged Lin Qinghuan tightly and said.

"Yeah." Lin Qinghuan said in a low voice.

"I heard that Nan'er is pestering you to go to the Lin Mansion with her?" Xiao Yi asked.

"Yes, she is going back to her mother's home with me tomorrow. I don't know why." Lin Qinghuan remembered this matter again when he reminded her.

"I heard that Nan'er secretly went to the Imperial City Army Patrol Camp some time ago. Are An Cai and Jia Xu serving in the patrol camp?" Xiao Yi asked.

"An Cai went to the patrol camp recently. Do you mean that Nan'er went to look for An Cai? Did she have any conflict with An Cai again?" Lin Qinghuan asked.

"I don't know either. I've been very busy lately and don't have time to take care of her. If you don't want to take her there tomorrow, just ignore her." Xiao Yi said.

"Yeah." Lin Qinghuan suddenly felt that Xiao Qiannan's current personality was caused by family reasons. Liu Ji doted on her blindly, Xiao Bowen had extreme family rules, and Xiao Yi ignored her and let her do what she wanted. As long as it was not against the law, he would turn a blind eye.

The next day, when Lin Qinghuan arrived at Liu Ji's Qingyin Pavilion, Xiao Qiannan was already waiting there. The little girl seemed different today. She seemed to have put on rouge and her clothes were much more delicate than usual. If you didn't know her, you would think she was a well-behaved girl from a wealthy family.

"Huan'er, Nan'er told me that I would accompany my eldest sister-in-law back to her mother's home today?" Liu Ji asked tentatively, because she was afraid that this naughty girl would make her, the soft and sweet daughter-in-law, embarrassed again.

"Mother, Nan'er told me that there are many sisters in your mother's family, so let Nan'er go with you to join in the fun." Lin Qinghuan saw Xiao Qiannan looking at him expectantly, and nodded.

"I never thought that the young lady and the eldest lady would be so close. It turns out that the young lady is virtuous and generous." Hu Tao Niang said as she sat opposite Lin Qinghuan.

"Nan'er is innocent and cute, straightforward and open-minded. Since I am the eldest sister-in-law, I must take care of my younger sister-in-law. Sister Hu, thank you for your praise." Lin Qinghuan said.

"The young lady thinks highly of us, so she calls us sister every day. Logically speaking, we can't bear the title of sister." Li Jiaxin said.

"Sister Li, don't say that. We are all sisters who serve your husband together. Don't be so distant." Lin Qinghuan said.

"Yeah." Michelle Reis smiled at Lin Qinghuan and nodded. In front of Liu Ji, Hu Tao Niang could only smile in return.

"I heard that my husband took the young lady out for a trip the day before yesterday, without even the maid accompanying them. I don't know where they went. Are we lucky enough to hear about the excitement?" said Walnut Lady.

"Oh? Huan'er, did you and Yi'er go for a walk?" Liu Ji glanced at Liu Rong and asked curiously.

"We went on a boat trip and listened to music." Lin Qinghuan said.

"If you want to say the best place to listen to music in Jinhan City, it must be my husband's Music House. My husband took me there once three years ago. It's such a great place!" After saying this, Hu Tao Niang looked at Lin Qinghuan proudly.

"Then you are so lucky, sister. I only heard the music on the cruise ship, but I don't know where this Music House is." Lin Qinghuan said. Li Jiaxin looked at her with a bad expression.

"The young lady and her husband are traveling on the same boat. Just think about it, it will be a very pleasant afternoon." Michelle Reis said.

Liu Ji looked at the three daughters-in-law, then looked at Liu Rong, "You all should go back and rest."

After everyone left Qingyin Pavilion, Liu Rong looked at Liu Ji strangely, as if hesitant to speak.

"Are you wondering why I allow that Walnut Lady to talk so much?" Liu Ji said.

"Yes, haven't you always disliked Madam Hu?" Liu Rong asked.

"I want to see how much Huan'er cares about Yi'er now. Walnut is the best thorn. I have to use it a little before pulling it out." Liu Ji said.

"Yier was young at that time, so the old lady gave this girl to him. Fortunately, Yier was a nostalgic child, so this girl became a concubine in the Xiao Mansion." Liu Rong said disdainfully.

"I heard that Yi'er doesn't go anywhere else except Qingboyuan now?" Liu Ji asked.

"Sister, any man would be like Yier!" Liu Rong said.

"You said Huan'er has been pregnant for several months, why is there no movement at all?" Liu Ji asked, "If Huan'er is pregnant, ask Jiaxin to keep the child as well. She is the girl I have watched grow up since she was a child. She has been sensible and filial over the years. Even if Yi'er doesn't like her, she can't be left alone for the rest of her life. Having a child at least gives her hope in life, but forget about Honglian Pavilion." Liu Ji thought for a while and said again.

"Mrs. Hu relies on the old lady's favor and is very arrogant in the mansion every day." Liu Rong said.

"Let her make trouble. This brainless thing won't last long." Liu Ji threw the hairpin she disliked the most into the box.

When Lin Qinghuan and Xiao Qiannan arrived at the Lin Mansion, they happened to see Lin Qingwan getting off the carriage.

"Third sister." Lin Qinghuan walked over.

"Huan'er, you came quite early." Lin Qingwan said and looked at Xiao Qiannan in confusion.

"Nan'er, call someone." Lin Qinghuan said.

"The third sister of the Lin family." Xiao Qiannan shouted.

"Then go in." Lin Qingwan nodded and said to her.

The three of them first went to Lin Mutang and He Su's house, bowed and greeted them. Now Lin Mutang could no longer practice martial arts for the time being, but fortunately he could move around freely. However, when Lin Qinghuan looked at him, he still felt that his father was old and weak, and he couldn't help feeling a little sad.

"Your elder sister wrote to me a few days ago, saying that she is pregnant again." He Su said to them happily.

"My elder sister and her husband are so lucky." Lin Qinghuan sighed.

"Sister-in-law and brother are very happy now. Brother doesn't go anywhere except Qingboyuan every day." Xiao Qiannan said.

"Huh? Doesn't Huan'er live in Luoyi Pavilion?" Lin Qingwan asked curiously.

"So my eldest brother is infatuated with my eldest sister-in-law. Now he has asked my eldest sister-in-law to live in my yard. I guess I will become an aunt soon." Xiao Qiannan said, but her eyes were always looking outside.

"Really, Huan'er, you didn't even tell us." A hint of unnaturalness flashed across Lin Qingwan's face, and then she complained to He Su with a smile.

"Why is Second Sister so slow?" Lin Qinghuan deliberately changed the subject.

"Mo'er is a mother now, so going out is naturally not as easy as before." He Su said.

"Mother, where is my fourth sister?" Lin Qinghuan discovered that the talkative Lin Qingyi was not there.

"She is angry with your father. She should be looking for An Cai now." He Su said.

"Why is she angry with daddy?" Lin Qingwan said unhappily. After all, Lin Muchang is not in good health now.

"Your father and I will be angry with us if we tell him to marry her to someone else." He Su didn't mind Lin Qingwan's temper. After all, the child was usually very filial to Lin Mutang.

"Hahaha, that's what I guessed." Lin Qinghuan suddenly laughed.

"You guys go look for them, I'll go look after your father." He Su stood up and said.

Several people walked towards Suheju.

"Aren't we going to your old yard? Aren't we going to your brother's yard to look for the fourth sister of the Lin family?" Xiao Qiannan said reluctantly.

"Your little head is quite good at recognizing the way. You remembered it just after coming here once." Lin Qinghuan joked with a smile.

"I'm quite impressed." Xiao Qiannan said unhappily with a pout.

"But now the only way to find Fourth Sister and Ancai is to go to my yard. They must be waiting there to eat the snacks and fruits made by Mother Huang." Lin Qinghuan had just finished speaking when he heard the sound of Lin Qingyi and Lin Ancai playing in Suheju.

"They have been fighting since they were young!" Lin Qingwan said with disdain, frowning. She has always hated fighting.

Hong Qi walked out of Suheju and looked at Lin Qinghuan.

When Xiao Qiannan saw Hong Qi, she immediately thought of her and hid behind Lin Qinghuan in fear.

"Girl, you're back." Hong Qi glanced at her and then said to Lin Qinghuan.

"No wonder Sister Hongqi has been looking at the gate of the courtyard. I guess she heard the sound. Hey, why are you here too?" Lin Qingyi said, and then looked at Xiao Qiannan in confusion.

"Who's here too?" Lin Ancai asked as he ran out from the small kitchen holding some delicate pastries.

"My young master, the dim sum hasn't been steamed yet!" Mother Huang chased out.

"Mom, let me help you." Chuxia ran from behind Lin Qinghuan to Mother Huang, took the raw pastries from Lin Ancai's hand and went into the small kitchen.

Several people sat in the pavilion staring at each other.

"Why don't you guys speak?" Xiao Qiannan couldn't help but ask.

"Have you bullied my sister again?" Lin Ancai looked at her and asked.

"I didn't. I knelt down and apologized to my sister-in-law last time. My father punished me by sending me to the palace, and my elder brother also punished me." Xiao Qiannan looked at Lin Ancai unhappily and a little aggrieved and said.

"Nan'er is very obedient now, An Cai, don't speak to her so harshly." Lin Qinghuan felt that if he didn't speak up, the girl would cry.

"That's fine." Lin Ancai glanced at her and said, "Then what are you doing here today?"

"I... I will accompany my sister-in-law back to my mother's home. I can protect her along the way." Xiao Qiannan said after thinking about it.

"With that mediocre kung fu, how can you protect people?" Lin Ancai said disdainfully.

"I learned skills from my older brother and second brother since I was little. If you don't believe me, you can try to spar with me." Xiao Qiannan said unconvinced, then covered her mouth and explained hurriedly, "But I don't particularly like to fight or play around."

"If you know martial arts, you should practice it. Otherwise, what's the point of learning it? Get up quickly." Lin Qingyi pulled Xiao Qiannan up and took her to a spacious area in the yard without giving her time to react.

"Come on, let me try your kung fu." Lin Qingyi took a fighting stance.

"Hahaha, let's fight quickly. If you can beat Third Sister, I will surrender to you and apologize to you." Lin Ancai said, clapping his hands.

Xiao Qiannan looked at him, then smiled and looked at Lin Qingyi, "Fourth Sister of the Lin Family, I'm sorry."

Lin Qinghuan suddenly realized something was wrong. Why did Nan'er care so much about An Cai's words? He cracked melon seeds and observed carefully.

What no one expected was that Xiao Qiannan and Lin Qingyi's martial arts skills were actually comparable.

Finally, Lin Qingyi threw the sword away and said, "You are smaller than me, I lose."

Xiao Qiannan smiled happily, then looked at the boy next to her, "Brother An Cai, shouldn't you apologize to me and respect me?"

Lin Qinghuan frowned and looked at the two of them, feeling very uneasy.

Lin Ancai kept his word and apologized promptly. Xiao Qiannan happily returned to the pavilion and had tea.

"I didn't expect Nan'er's kung fu is so good." Lin Qinghuan said while looking at her.

"It was all taught by my eldest brother and second brother..." Xiao Qiannan suddenly realized that she had mentioned someone she shouldn't have mentioned, and looked at Lin Qinghuan somewhat unnaturally.

"If big brother knew martial arts, wouldn't I be so weak?" Lin Qinghuan said jokingly. Xiao Qiannan no longer felt embarrassed when she looked at her.

"Daddy is very skilled in martial arts, but you are not cut out for it. Go learn to play the piano from your third sister," said Lin Qingyi.

Lin Qingyi and Lin Ancai started playing around again. Lin Qinghuan saw Xiao Qiannan staring at them and said, "You should go play with them too."

Xiao Qiannan smiled at her and went to find the two lively people.

"Huan'er, he treats you differently now, right?" Lin Qingwan asked.

"I don't know, but my mother said that we have to live our lives, so let's just live in this muddled way." Lin Qinghuan replied.

Lin Qingwan looked at Lin Qinghuan and felt very conflicted. After all, this was her own sister. She hoped that she could live a good life, but she was unwilling to accept that the person she had been thinking about fell in love with Lin Qinghuan.

"Sister Wan, how does your brother-in-law treat you?" Lin Qinghuan asked.

"I live my life just like you." Lin Qingwan smiled. Because of Lin Mutang's status, the family of Lord Wang, the Minister of Rites, treated her politely, and her husband Wang Xing was even more so. This lady was very aloof, so she might as well live in the concubine's yard to avoid facing her cold face every day.

"Third sister, did you mention Le Yin Fang to me?" Lin Qinghuan pondered for a long time and then looked at Lin Qingwan and asked.

"I know. It's a place dedicated to learning music. I've heard of it, but I don't know where it is or what kind of place it is. I still remember that when we first came to Jinhan, the Yaoqin Sound Searching Competition was related to this music studio." After Lin Qingwan finished speaking, her mind thought of Xiao Yi again, and then she said, "But it should be different from the music studio where I taught music before. But perhaps they are both related to your husband. Why are you asking this?"

"I..." Lin Qinghuan was thinking about how to explain.

"Sister-in-law, don't mind what Aunt Hu said. It will be convenient for big brother to take her there to serve me. If you really want to go and have a look, big brother will be happy to take you there. But that place is not suitable for a decent girl. It's just wine, meat, pools and forests." Xiao Qiannan came back at some point. It turned out that the two lively guys went to the small kitchen following the aroma of pastries.

"Nan'er, I'm just asking out of curiosity." Lin Qinghuan said a little embarrassedly, then picked up a cup of tea and started drinking.
