Chapter 6: There Is No Normal Person In The Family
Wei Mansion.
Just as Xiao Feng was hurrying over, Wei Changtian and Lan Jingyao had just emerged from Qin Caizhen’s place.
As Lan Jingyao’s status was “concubine,” the wedding ceremony was very simple.
The sedan chair was carried in, and after paying respects to the Wei family ancestors and greeting the father and mother-in-law, it was basically done. Not even the guests who came to congratulate them were allowed to see her, and everything was handled by Wei Xianzhi.
Lu Jingyao was quite cooperative today. Although she secretly wiped away tears several times, she did not try to commit suicide. It seemed that she had made her choice in her heart.
However, there was one thing she couldn’t let go of.
“Wei Changtian, I have something to say to you.”
As they walked to a pavilion, she suddenly stopped, her expression seemed to be struggling, and her voice was very soft.
Wei Changtian then stood still, turned his side face to her and reminded her coldly, “You should call me what?”
“…”
Lan Jingyao’s expression froze, and after a long pause, she gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and trembled as she changed her address.
“My H-husband…”
“…”
Got her!
He totally got her!
Wei Changtian almost burst out laughing at the two words that sounded like a mosquito’s hum.
He suddenly understood why “men don’t love women who don’t love themselves.”
The harder it was to conquer, the more sense of accomplishment there was. The easier it was to get, the less it was cherished.
So… being a lap dog was impossible!
Although he was secretly pleased, Wei Changtian’s expression remained calm as he told the maids ahead, “Go away.”
“Yes, young master.”
The maids knew that their young master and the lady weren’t “of one mind,” so they quickly scattered, afraid of hearing something they shouldn’t and getting into trouble.
After they left, Wei Changtian walked to a pavilion and sat down, looking at Lan Jingyao’s slender figure as he asked, “What do you want to say?”
“Say it… as long as it’s not to plead for Xiao Feng.”
Lan Jingyao’s words were stuck in her throat.
She lowered her head and remained silent for a while, then suddenly took a step closer and sat next to Wei Changtian. She gently stretched out her jade hand and took the latter’s arm for the first time.
Soon, a gentle whisper sounded in Wei Changtian’s ear.
“Husband, I and Xiao Feng are just acquaintances.”
“I only said those things before because I didn’t want to marry into the Wei family.”
“But now that we’ve already paid respects to heaven and earth… and after last night’s conversation, I know you’re not as cruel as the rumors say. You’ve already won my heart.”
“So, Xiao Feng’s life or death doesn’t matter, but I don’t want you to kill an innocent person because of me…”
Wei Changtian was surprised by Lan Jingyao’s “deep confession.” Although her words had many loopholes, they might be the only way to save Xiao Feng’s life.
After all, Lan Jingyao didn’t know about the deep-seated hatred between the Wei family and Xiao Feng, and thought that Wei Changtian only wanted to kill Xiao Feng because of “jealousy” over her.
It was fortunate that he was a transmigrator; if he were the original owner, he would have been deceived and lost his way.
Tsk, tsk, tsk, no wonder Lan Jingyao could help Xiao Feng manage his subordinates so efficiently in the novel. It seems she’s not just a vase who only knows how to recite poetry and play the zither.
To deal with a woman like this, one must appear even more unpredictable than her!
After a moment of contemplation, Wei Changtian didn’t directly expose Lan Jingyao’s lies, but instead gently pried open her hand that was grasping his clothes, smiling lightly. “You don’t need to be so tense.”
Lu Jingyao shuddered slightly, trying to hide the panic on her face: “This matter is my fault. I am afraid of being punished by my husband, so I am naturally nervous.”
“Hmm.”
Wei Changtian looked at her sideways. “Mutually affectionate, what’s wrong with that?”
“The relationship between me and Xiao Feng is pure and innocent. There is no question of ‘affection’ between us.”
Lan Jingyao’s tone seemed a bit aggrieved. “Husband, don’t you believe me?”
“Whether I believe it or not is another matter.”
Wei Changtian shook his head, pulling his arm out of the soft, fragrant embrace, and turned to look at the blooming flowers outside the pavilion.
The dense branches and leaves were neatly trimmed, almost blocking half of the view.
“Today is our wedding day. I don’t want to talk about Xiao Feng.”
“If you still want to plead for him, wait until tomorrow.”
Wei Changtian thought that Xiao Feng would probably be in a precarious situation tonight, so he didn’t bother to argue with Lan Jingyao anymore.
But Lan Jingyao didn’t know that her beloved was already in a life-or-death crisis, and thought that her words had taken effect, so she was overjoyed.
Just as she was about to say something to consolidate her “victory,” a loud, miserable dog howl suddenly came from not far away.
“Woof woof! Ruff ruff ruff!”
The howling was so pitiful, as if the dog was being brutally tortured.
Wei Changtian and Lan Jingyao turned their heads simultaneously, and then saw the branches in the flower garden suddenly go wild, followed by a person and a dog bursting out of the flowers.
“Hehehe! Big Ghost, run fast!”
“Big Brother, look! I’m riding a dog!”
“……”
Wei Changtian stared in amazement at the little girl who was riding on the big black dog with great pride, and swallowed his saliva.
If he wasn’t mistaken, this little girl who made such a cool entrance should be his only sibling, Wei Qiaoling.
There was no description of this character in the novel, and Wei Changtian had originally expected a gentle, soft, and cute little loli. But…
Which loli would ride a dog?!
And what’s with the dog’s name?!
Big Ghost?!
Are you kidding me?!
Wei Changtian’s heart shattered into a million pieces, while Wei Qiaoling didn’t know she had already been disliked by her big brother. She happily ran over, with her big, black eyes full of curiosity.
“Big Brother! Who is this?”
“Oh.”
Wei Changtian dodged the little devil’s attempt to wipe her nose on his clothes, saying, “This is your sister-in-law.”
“Sister-in-law……”
Wei Qiaoling “failed her mission,” so she wiped her nose on the big black dog’s head instead, then asked, puzzled, “What’s a sister-in-law?”
Wei Changtian explained patiently, “A sister-in-law is your brother’s wife.”
“Ah, I know!”
Wei Qiaoling clapped her hands, proudly displaying her knowledge. “Grandpa’s wife is Grandma! Father’s wife is Mother! Big Brother’s wife is sister-in-law! Big Ghost’s wife is Big Meow!”
“Big Meow?”
Wei Changtian suddenly felt a sense of foreboding: “Big Meow is…?”
“It’s the big fat cat that’s always lying on the roof!”
“……”
Damn it! I shouldn’t have asked!
Even the dog is so abnormal, so is there anyone normal in the entire Wei family besides himself?
Wei Changtian was afraid that if he continued to ask, he would hear even more unbelievable things, so he quickly changed the subject and asked, “How did you get here?”
Wei Qiaoling counted on her fingers as she answered truthfully, “Father told me to come and call Big Brother over.”
“Okay, I’ll go.”
Wei Changtian knew that Wei Xianzhi must want to discuss killing Xiao Feng with him, so his expression turned serious, and he turned to Lan Jingyao and said, “You can play with Qiaoling for a while.”
“Okay.”
Lan Jingyao didn’t dislike Wei Changtian much anymore, and she couldn’t even begin to hate Wei Qiaoling, who didn’t understand anything.
“Qiaoling.”
After Wei Changtian left, Lan Jingyao smiled and bent down to ask, “Do you want to play with me?”
“Yes!”
Wei Qiaoling nodded her head like a little chicken, looking quite cute. “Sister-in-law, let’s catch frogs!”
“Catch frogs?”
Lu Jingyao, who had studied music and poetry since she was a child and could only do needlework in her free time, had never done such a thing before. She was a little curious for a moment: “What’s the point of catching frogs?”
“To feed Little Green!”
“Little Green?”
“It’s the long worm I raised! Its body is so long!”
“……”
