Chapter 101

"Miss Luo, you look quite well today. Is the ginseng I gave you still of any use?"

Yao Jinsheng looked at the woman in front of him, a twisted obsession flashing in his eyes, but a gentle smile appeared on his face.

As the son of the Minister of War, he had practiced martial arts since childhood. In addition, he was about the same age as Song Yanzhou, so he was often compared to him. Unfortunately, he always lost to Song Yanzhou, which made him extremely unhappy!

Now the tables have turned. Song Yanzhou is now a cripple, and the girl he used to like is about to marry him. I wonder how he will react when he finds out.

Just thinking about it makes me feel great!

Luo Qingyin looked at the man in front of her; she didn't like Yao Jinsheng.

Even though he seemed like a gentle breeze at the moment, she always felt that this wasn't Yao Jinsheng's true self, as if he were wearing a hypocritical mask.

"Thank you, but a hundred-year-old ginseng is really too precious, so I brought it with me today..."

As she spoke, Luo Qingyin looked at the maid beside her, who quickly took out the ginseng from the brocade box.

"Miss Luo, there's no need to rush to return it."

Yao Jinsheng did not accept it, his expression unchanged, "As long as Miss Luo marries me, you don't need to worry about this in the future. I will definitely take good care of you."

"It's a pity that I liked you back then, but you didn't have any feelings for me, so I could only feel sad and heartbroken."

Although you are marrying me now as my second wife, I will definitely treat you well, you can rest assured of that.

Luo Qingyin was silent for a moment. She had known this for a long time. At her age, girls of similar age had already gotten married and had more than one child.

Even if she were to marry, she could only become a second wife at best, and the Yao family is the best place her family has found for her now.

"Young Master Yao, if I may ask, how did your wife pass away?"

Upon hearing this, Yao Jinsheng's face showed a hint of unease, and he said, "Her health is not good, and she has become increasingly thin since becoming pregnant. I have been taking good care of her."

I never imagined she would fall and go into premature labor, resulting in the deaths of both mother and child. It's all my fault; I'm so sorry.

Yao Jinsheng's face showed deep self-reproach, which was heartbreaking to see.

"I'm sorry to have brought up your painful memories." Luo Qingyin looked apologetic and asked, "So Young Master Yao is so loyal and kind. He has always treated Madam very well."

"Of course, as a man, it is only natural to treat one's wife well."

Yao Jinsheng smiled and nodded, picking up a pastry and handing it over. "I've heard that Miss Luo likes peach blossom pastries. How does it taste?"

Not far away, Luo Huaili watched Yao Jinsheng fawning over his older sister and felt increasingly displeased.

"What's wrong with Song Yanzhou? I've made it so obvious, surely you don't understand?"

Luo Huaili paced back and forth anxiously. If his sister really married Yao Jinsheng as his second wife, it would be a disaster. Song Yanzhou would be a better choice!

He had also told his parents about it, but everyone thought that he and Yao Jinsheng had a bad relationship in their early years, so they were maliciously slandering him.

"Young master, there are quite a few young ladies looking at you over there. You shouldn't be walking around like that; it will ruin your image," the servant Yulin reminded him.

There are quite a few young men and women attending today's peach blossom banquet. My young master has reached the age where he can be engaged, and several young ladies across from me are secretly observing him.

Other young masters are all elegant, waving folding fans and reciting poems, but my young master walks around like a monkey, never stopping, which is really a headache.

"I'm worried about my second sister, how can I care about these things?"

Luo Huaili couldn't help but look behind him. There was a reason why he hated Yao Jinsheng; this guy had always been very violent.

The reason he fought with Yao Jinsheng was because Yao killed his dog, Huangdou, which he had raised for several years and was very close to.

Unexpectedly, Yao Jinsheng had only argued with him once, yet he cruelly murdered Huang Dou and even led people to cut up the dog meat. When he saw the dog, he saw the fur covered in blood, and naturally he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

Unfortunately, he couldn't beat Yao Jinsheng and was even mocked. It was Song Yanzhou who helped him vent his anger by beating Yao Jinsheng up, which finally allowed him to get rid of his pent-up resentment.

He was scolded by his father when he got home because of this, but he didn't regret it at all.

Now, this guy actually wants to marry his own sister, which infuriates him.

When Song Ruozhen and the other two arrived, they soon saw Luo Huaili pacing back and forth not far from the pavilion.

"Huai Li, were you waiting for me?"

Song Yanzhou's deep voice rang out.

When Luo Huaili saw Song Yanzhou, the anxious look on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a look of disdain.

"How did you come?"

"I haven't been out for a long time, and I didn't want to stay cooped up at home, so I came out for a stroll," Song Yanzhou said.

Luo Huaili nodded, raised his eyebrows, and said casually, "Then you can wander around. I've told you before, don't even think about messing with my sister!"

"I understand." Song Yanzhou couldn't help but chuckle, then suppressed the smile on his lips.

Looking at the arrogant Luo Huaili in front of her, Song Ruozhen couldn't help but smile. Although he kept saying not to make a move on his sister, his expression clearly said—

You're trying to take advantage of my sister!

Hurry up! Stop dawdling!

Thinking back to his attitude a couple of days ago, which was exactly the same, it seems that even when a person is dead, their mouth remains hard.

"Brother, let me take you over there to rest for a while."

Song Ruozhen pointed in another direction. At that moment, Luo Qingyin was meeting with Yao Jinsheng, and it was not appropriate for them to stay here.

Seeing that Song Ruozhen was preparing to leave with Song Yanzhou, Luo Huaili couldn't help but ask, "Where are you planning to go?"

"The Peach Blossom Banquet is naturally for admiring the peach blossoms."

Song Ruozhen pointed to a spot not far away, "It's over there. I think the scenery there is elegant and there aren't many people, which is perfect for my older brother."

Luo Huaili silently memorized the location, pondering what excuse he could use to take Luo Qingyin there for a stroll later.

At the same time, Song Ruozhen also gave Song Zhiyu a wink, indicating that they needed to find an opportunity to get Yao Jinsheng away so that her older brother would have a chance to meet Sister Luo.

"give it to me."

Song Zhiyu blinked, then quietly left under the pretext of going to the restroom.

Not long after, Yao Jinsheng heard that someone had bumped into his carriage, and the horse seemed to have gone mad, so he had no choice but to stand up.

"Miss Luo, please wait here for a moment. I will go and take care of this matter and come back soon."

Luo Qingyin nodded, "Please go ahead."

As soon as Yao Jinsheng left, Luo Huaili said, "Second Sister, it's a rare opportunity for you to come all this way, let's go admire the flowers too, it's not good to stay here any longer."

"it is good."

Without much thought, Luo Qingyin followed Yao Jinsheng forward, but before she knew it, she saw a very familiar figure under the peach tree.
