After marrying a sickly and powerful official, Jiaojiao cries every day

The spring breeze blows and the flowers and trees emit fragrance.

It was originally a very good day, but now it has become gloomy, dark clouds and cold wind are blowing from all directions, making people's clothes rustle. It seems that it is going to rain again.

Wen Ranyan looked around and found a restaurant that was bustling with people.

She retracted her gaze and said, "Let's go to the restaurant and take a rest. It looks like it's going to rain again."

Sijin smiled and nodded, as if relieved.

The restaurant was full of guests, with laughter and joy everywhere. Wen Ranyan and Sijin stood for a long time before they got a good seat.

Sijin put all the goodies she bought on the table, then collapsed on the table like a dead dog, and said hesitantly, "Madam, you look thin and frail, but you have walked so far, why don't you look tired? I collapsed first."

There was bright light all around, and Wen Ranyan's eyes were dizzy in it, with fragments of light intertwining and different colors floating.

She said calmly, "Maybe I haven't been out for a long time. I'm too happy and don't feel tired. Now that I'm resting, I feel my legs are starting to get sore."

Si Jin twisted her calf and smiled, "So that's how it is. That's what I said. How could I not be tired?"

Wen Ranyan stared at her eyes and smiled without saying a word.

As there were many people in the restaurant, the dishes were served a little slowly. Wen Ranyan was not in a hurry. She played with the chopsticks in her hand from time to time, her eyelids drooping, and she looked lazy.

"Whose family are you from? You are so pretty."

A frivolous male voice suddenly came to Wen Ranyan's ears.

Wen Ranyan glanced sideways casually and saw a young man in brocade clothes who had come to her table at some point and was looking her up and down with a malicious look.

The man had a sinister face and a direct gaze. He was extremely thin and frail, with dark circles under his eyes and unsteady steps. It was obvious that he had indulged in sensual pleasures for many years, and his energy and spirit had been drained away.

Wen Ranyan glanced at him casually, then looked away without interest.

When Jiang Yuliu saw her like this, he felt as if his heart was hooked by her. He originally came to the restaurant to have a few drinks, but he didn't expect to meet such a stunning beauty.

This beauty looked like smoke and mist, and as weak as a willow swaying in the wind. Even though she was wearing plain clothes, she could not hide her fairy-like appearance.

She is so gentle and otherworldly, I wonder if she would also be as charming as spring in bed, moaning and clinging to him under him, crying and begging him to be harder and faster?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuliu felt a surge of anger in his abdomen, and he wished he could kill her right there.

He smiled evilly, wanting to reach out and touch her: "Young lady, come home with me, I promise to make sure you have fine clothes and food, and wear gold and silver."

Wen Ranyan was too lazy to talk to such an ugly thing, but in the eyes of others, she looked like a girl who had never seen the wind and waves of the sea, and was so frightened that she lost her voice.

Si Jin was so angry that she slapped his dirty hand away and shouted, "You are so bold, do you know who my wife is?"

Jiang Yuliu was not angry at all. Instead, he looked at her with shining eyes and said, "You are a pretty maid. When the time comes, you two can serve me together. I promise that you will have delicious food and drink and live as happily as gods."

After he finished speaking, he smiled lewdly, and his eyes became more and more explicit.

"You're ridiculous." Si Jin couldn't help but spit at him and cursed, "If my master heard what you said, he would skin you and feed you to the dogs."

There was a hint of anger on Jiang Yuliu's face, but when his eyes fell on Sijin's small lips, his expression was suddenly tainted with a certain ambiguous desire.

He licked his dry lips and laughed wantonly: "You little maid is really fierce, the young lady didn't say anything, but you kept chattering, do you want me to shut you up?"

Sijin understood the hidden meaning of his words, her cheeks turned pale and blue, and she was obviously angry again.

Wen Ranyan flexed her fingertips and finally looked up at Jiang Yuliu again.

Her almond-shaped eyes were smiling, and her gaze was clear, yet deep and unfathomable.

Jiang Yuliu was unaware of the danger, so he waved his hand to call the servants over, and said impudently: "You guys, help me invite these two beauties to the other courtyard. As the young master, I have to treat them well."

The servants rolled up their sleeves and gathered around with smiles on their faces.

It's true that like owner, like dog.

The servants were just about to start——

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the restaurant, and then several guards with swords and wearing tight clothes dispersed the crowd. In an instant, they filed in, looking majestic.

They have stern and ferocious looks, and it's clear at first glance that they are not people to be trifled with.

They seemed to have a goal and were heading straight towards the direction where the river was flowing.

Jiang Yuliu and his servants were also shocked by the scene and stood there in a daze.

"Mr. Jiang, please come with us to the Dali Temple."

Jiang Yuliu finally came back to his senses and spat, "What the hell? I didn't break any laws, and I didn't cause any trouble. Why do you want me to go to that kind of place?"

At that time, a female voice as long and distant as a mountain was heard from the door of the restaurant.

"Jiang Yuliu, the son of the Jiang family, started kidnapping women three years ago and has tortured more than 20 people to death so far. At the beginning of this year, he wiped out the entire Li family and took away their treasures for fun. Yesterday, he had an argument with someone in a gambling house, so he sawed off the man's limbs, gouged out his eyes, cut off his tongue, and pushed him into a wolf pack to be eaten to death."

Wen Ranyan looked in the direction of the voice, and her bent fingertips suddenly relaxed.

I saw a woman in official uniform walking slowly towards me. Under the light, her face was as beautiful and graceful as the moon, and her aura was like that of an orchid, pure and noble.

She had a beautiful bun with flowing clouds on her head and a beautiful hairpin adorning her hair. When she walked, the tassels swayed and gently colliding with each other, making a crisp and pleasant sound, like red jade falling on a jade plate.

"Mr. Jiang, you have committed many crimes. You must go to the Dali Temple at least." She stood in front of Jiang Yuliu. Her bamboo-green official uniform made her look like a orchid or a chrysanthemum, independent and aloof from the world.

After Jiang Yuliu heard this, his pupils shrank and his heart tightened. He could see that the person coming was a beautiful young lady, so he looked her up and down, and suddenly there was an ambiguous and evil look in his eyes.

He raised his eyebrows and whistled: "Who are you? How dare a little girl act so arrogant in front of me."

She said: "I am the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, Shen Zhixiang."

Wen Ranyan's eyes were shining as she looked quietly at this powerful lady.

Jiang Yuliu sneered, looking lawless: "How dare a mere Junior Official of the Dali Temple come and arrest me? You know, my father is the Minister of Revenue, Jiang Beiwang. How dare a mere Junior Official like you challenge the Minister?"

Shen Zhixiang looked at him quietly. Her exquisite accessories were as bright as the moon, making her skin look as white as snow, adding a bit of compassion to her divinity.

Jiang Yuliu pointed at her and suddenly burst into laughter: "Oh, I know you, you are the daughter of Master Shen."

"You are just a young lady, but you dare to imitate men in solving cases and arresting people, and you hang out with men all day long as an official. I think a young lady like you should get married, have children, serve your parents-in-law, and serve your husband, instead of showing up in public and bringing shame to the Taifu Mansion."
