The top-level junior sister also wants to act weak today
Chapter 261 Marriage-in-law
"Yingxue..." Chu Ying excitedly reached out to grab Jiang Yingxue's hand: "You really are my lifelong best sister!"
Jiang Yingxue immediately responded, "Anyway, it's right to come to me when you're tired."
"Come to think of it, the reason I came to you this time wasn't because I was tired."
Jiang Yingxue frowned slightly: "Why is that?"
"Aren't you guys getting married in a month? So I came here early to see if there's anything I can do for you. Like try out some dishes or something~"
Jiang Yingxue's eyes suddenly widened: "I just decided on the wedding date, and you already know it?"
"By now, I, Yizhi, and Master should be the only ones who have received the news. After all, when he was racking his brains to win the approval of the Loyal and Brave Marquis, it was us who came up with the ideas. So, once the wedding date is set, you must tell us immediately!"
Chu Ying teased, "How about it, Yingxue? Your wedding is coming up soon. Are you nervous?"
Jiang Yingxue nodded seriously: "A little bit. After all, it's the first time that the Yun Kingdom has encountered such a thing as the Imperial Preceptor marrying into the family. I'm a little worried that it will be too conspicuous."
"It sounds pretty cool, but what a pity." Chu Ying sighed: "Yizhi's father doesn't agree with his son marrying me."
Jiang Yingxue couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "You two have already been married, what are you still thinking about?"
"That's different~" Chu Ying crossed her arms. "Come to think of it, I thought you and Senior Brother would get married as soon as we returned to Yun Country, but it took two years. When Senior Brother told us the good news, Yizhi and I were stunned for a long time."
"I can't help it. I have a very strict father. The time I've spent with him in the past two years combined is not as long as the time I've spent with you."
-
"What did you say!? You're marrying into the family!?"
In the hall of the Imperial Master's Mansion, Wan Jinan paced back and forth anxiously, almost leaving marks on the blue bricks under his feet.
"You know, I was worried about you being an orphan with no one to look after you, so I came here to take your father's place and have a cup of daughter-in-law tea. Now you tell me you're marrying into the family? How am I supposed to drink this cup of tea then?"
Yan Chuan stood aside, his expression calm. "It doesn't affect anything. When Yingxue comes to pick up the bride, we'll toast you a glass. But Master..." He paused, took out a crystal clear shadow stone from his arms, tossed it gently, his eyes filled with a hint of teasing, "Look at what this is?"
Wan Jinan glanced at the shadow stone, his expression changing slightly, but he quickly concealed it. He waved his hand calmly, his voice tinged with disdain, "Hey, isn't this a shadow stone? It's not something rare; there are plenty of them in the sect."
"Oh? A lot?" Yan Chuan raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of doubt in his voice.
He lightly tapped his fingertips, and the shadow stone suddenly lit up. A curtain of light unfolded in the air, reflecting the image of his naked upper body.
"Today, there was an old storyteller in a restaurant in the east of the city selling my shadow stone. Is this you, sir?"
Wan Jinan took one look and glanced away guiltily: "Oh, how could that be me? That's an old man, and look at me, I'm so high-spirited."
"Disguising oneself is not a difficult task for Master." Yan Chuan sat down: "Only you have my Shadow Stone, and only you can do such a thing."
Upon hearing this, Wan Jinan's eyes widened, and his voice was filled with dissatisfaction: "What do you mean? What do you mean, only I can do such a thing? Are you questioning the noble character of my teacher?"
Yan Chuan pulled the corners of his lips helplessly: "If I had doubted you, I wouldn't have been so decisive in thinking that you were selling my Shadow Stone. Really, only you could do that."
Wan Jinan was speechless, a flicker of embarrassment flashing across his face, but he quickly covered it up. He waved his hand, his voice tinged with impatience, "Okay, okay, so what if it's me? It's just a few rocks! What's the big deal?"
"If you continue to sell my Shadow Stone everywhere, it will affect my reputation. Do you know how hard I worked to gain the Marquis's approval—"
Before he could finish his words, Wan Jinan interrupted him immediately: "You mean, the Marquis just agreed to your marriage?"
"Yes."
"Two years, two years to agree!?"
Yan Chuan nodded seriously.
Wan Jinan covered his face with his hands. "Oh my God, it's not easy for you. His father is afraid that you will steal his daughter."
"And we are only allowed to meet once a month, and each meeting cannot exceed an hour. Someone will be assigned to monitor our every move." Yan Chuan rarely complained to Wan Jinan. God knows how painful it is for him to endure this every day.
In order to divert attention, everyone had to focus all their attention on the national teacher, so that everyone thought the national teacher was very dedicated.
"Other shadow stones might be fine, but this one shows me naked. If the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery accuses me of infidelity, I won't be able to marry into his family! Do you realize how serious this is?"
Wan Jinan swallowed hard when he heard this. "Oh, I just want to save some money to buy something for my two beloved disciples. You know, your master's cultivation level is not as high as yours, and money is..."
Wan Jinan sighed and his shoulders slumped slightly. "As expected, when you get older, you're looked down upon. Now that my children have grown up, they've started to look down on an old man like me."
Yan Chuan: "That's not what I meant."
However, Wan Jinan shouted as if he didn't hear her: "I don't care! You just dislike me. I'm sad. I want to go to bed. Oh, by the way, where is my room?"
Yan Chuan looked at him like this, feeling both helpless and amused.
He knew Wan Jinan's temper had always been like this; no one could stop him from being unreasonable. He sighed, turned around and instructed the servant beside him, "Alright... take Master to rest."
The servant nodded quickly and replied respectfully, "Yes."
Outside the window, moonlight streamed into the courtyard, casting a faint glow over the entire Imperial Master's Mansion. Yan Chuan stood in front of the window, silently pondering the details of the wedding.
Everything will wait until next month...
