After midnight, Li Yu and her husband also followed the two of them to the Wang family’s cellar. Seeing the nervous and excited Zhou Jia bend down and enter the cellar, she chuckled and patted him. “Xiao Xi, don’t we look like thieves robbing the rich to help the poor?”

...

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu, who was only showing her eyes, and then at himself. He nodded nervously and excitedly. “Yes! It really looks like that.”

Li Yu was overjoyed when she heard that. When she touched the chestnut rice in those sacks, Li Yu suddenly thought of the chestnut rice she had touched in the Qi camp. Her mood at that time was really indescribable. She slapped herself and kept shaking her head. Why didn’t she react in time and burned them all? She could have taken some into the space! It was really a waste of treasure!

When Zhou Jia and the other two heard the sound, they looked at Li Yu in surprise. “Madam, what’s wrong?

“Hehe! Bugs bit me.”

Ji Xiang and Ruyi looked into the cellar with blank expressions. Were there mosquitoes down here too? If Madam said there were, there definitely were.

Li Yu touched her aching face and smiled awkwardly. “Let’s move quickly while the firecrackers are going! When the guards wake up, they won’t be so easy to carry.”

“Yes, quickly move it!” Zhou Jia carried a bag of food. Ruyi and Ji Xiang also carried it and left. When the ox cart was filled, Li Yu quickly touched the sack and stored all the food in the space while the three of them were sending it back. She ran to the door where the guards were sleeping and pinched her nose as she shouted, “It’s water, it’s water.”

When she heard the two of them, she turned around and ran. She went back and said to them, “We can’t go anymore. The Wang family’s guards have already discovered us.”

“Aye! We should have done it sooner,” Ji Xiang said dejectedly.

“That’s right!” Zhou Jia touched his chin and felt like he had not had enough.

In a two-in-one house in Phoenix Town, Laidi sat alone on the wedding bed. She listened happily to the sound of drinking and merrymaking outside. After a while, she heard two women muttering at the door.

A moment later, she pushed open the door and walked in. Laidi saw a woman in her thirties and a sixteen-year-old girl. The woman had prominent cheekbones and thin lips. The girl’s skin was fair, and beautiful, and she looked timid as she followed behind the woman. Could she be a servant that Feng Qi had just bought? Laidi thought to herself that this woman looked troublesome. This girl was quite good-looking. Would she work well with a delicate appearance?

Seeing Laidi looking at them, Madam Ye smiled dryly and said, “Niece-in-law, you still don’t recognize me, right? I’m Feng Qi’s aunt. Feng Qi asked me to help take care of you when you got married.”

Laidi was enlightened and looked at Madam Ye and the girl mockingly. So she was the aunt who chased Feng Qi and Old Madam out of the house! What did she mean by Feng Qi asking her to help? It was more likely that she sucked up to him when she saw that Feng Qi had become successful.

At the thought of this, Laidi smiled proudly. “Oh! Thank you, Aunt.” As she spoke, she looked curiously at the girl beside Madam Ye. “Yo! Such a beautiful girl? Is she Aunt’s sister?”

Madam Ye did not care about Laidi’s expression at all. She happily pushed the girl in front of Laidi. “I also think that Feng’er is good -looking! Hehe! This is my niece, Feng’er. Granny said that Feng Qi is going to the capital to take the exam after you get married. She’s afraid that no one will take care of you on the way. She asked Feng’er to go with you so that she can take care of you along the way.”

Her niece! Laidi looked at Ye Feng’er’s shy expression and felt that something was wrong. She thought to herself that although Ye Feng was not Fengqi’s cousin, she was Madam Ye’s niece. She was also good-looking. How could she be willing to work for her family?

“Aunt, how can we let Miss Ye serve us? I know how to wash clothes and cook. Besides, we won’t be able to come back from the capital for two to three years. At Miss Ye’s age, it will delay her if she leaves with us.”

Madam Ye looked at Laidi and thought to herself that as expected, she didn’t know anything having come from the countryside! Didn’t she think that such a delicate little girl was here to serve a country girl? Of course, she was here to serve the future scholar.

Madam Ye glanced at Laidi with disdain and said with a fake smile, “My niece-in-law is indeed a kind person. Don’t worry, she won’t be delayed. Old Madam said that Feng Qi is going to take the scholarship. She’s afraid that she’s too old to follow Fengqi to the capital. If anything happens to her on the way, Feng Qi’s future will be delayed. Old Madam and Feng Qi have already told me that I’ll bring Old Madam home to fulfill my filial piety. Feng’er will follow you to the capital to serve you.”

Madam Ye walked up to Laidi and held her hand. She smiled at Laidi and said, “Niece-in-law, don’t you know that when Feng Qi’s parents were still alive, they even said that Feng’er and Feng Qi were a match made in heaven! Hehe… Feng’er will serve you. Niece-in-law, on account of Aunt, you have to take care of my Feng’er in the future. Don’t let anyone bully my Feng’er.”

Laidi looked at Madam Ye and did not understand what it had to do with Ye Feng’er to bring the old lady back to do her filial duty. Then, she heard Madam Ye say proudly that Li Fengqi and Ye Feng’er were a match made in heaven. Now that she was here to serve them, she did not want them to bully her. Laidi looked at the smug Madam Ye and the shy Ye Feng without blinking and understood who Ye Feng’er was here to serve.

Laidi was so angry that she clenched her fists. She looked at Madam Ye and Ye Feng’er with a pale face and thought to herself, “Why didn’t Fengqi mention it to me? Did Old Madam and Madam Ye discuss it, or did Madam Ye deliberately sow discord?”

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door. Madam Ye went forward and pushed open the door. She saw her two sons supporting the drunk Li Fengqi to the door.

The Li brothers said to Madam Ye. “Mother. Cousin is drunk.”

“Aiyo! Why is Feng Qi so drunk?! Hurry up and help him to the bed.” Madam Ye smiled and pointed at the wedding bed.

After the Li brothers helped Li Fengqi to the bed and lay down, they walked out with red faces and lowered heads. Madam Ye pulled Ye Feng’er, who wanted to go forward to help. “Feng’er, we’re leaving too. Let’s not delay Fengqi’s wedding night with my niece-in-law.”

Laidi watched Madam Ye leave with a smile. She got up and closed the door. She returned to the bed and looked at the drunk Li Fengqi. She patted him a few times. “Fengqi, Fengqi, wake up and wash up.”

Li Fengqi glanced at Laidi drunkenly and waved his hand. “Drink, drink…” He muttered and fell asleep again.

Laidi fell into a chair and felt that it was different from what she had imagined. She had never seen Ah Qing drunk. How could a scholar be so unrestrained?

Laidi looked bitterly at Li Fengqi, who was sleeping soundly. She whispered, “Don’t sleep! Tonight is our wedding night.. How can you be like this? Tell me, what’s going on with that Ye Feng’er?”
