After the three members of the Lin family had finished their breakfast, Lin Yanyu was sitting in the yard washing dishes. Lin's mother was pushing Lin Xiucai and was about to go out. Li Yanqi, dressed in black, strode into the Lin family's yard.

The three of them were all puzzled. Mother Lin asked, "Yanqi, you came here so early, is there anything wrong?"

Li Yanqi quickly stole a glance at his beloved and said respectfully, "Good morning, uncle and aunt. Logically, I shouldn't come here so early to bother you, but I was indeed asked by the elders to make this trip."

The old couple of the Lin family looked at each other and asked, "Elder?"

"Yes, my master Li Zhaofeng heard that I was getting married and said that he had crippled legs and it was inconvenient for him to come to my house. He also said that he would not attend my wedding for fear of scaring the guests, so he wanted to meet Zhizhi today."

Lin Xiucai understood and said, "Li Zhaofeng and Yan Qi have depended on each other for so many years. They are like family. Since it is inconvenient for him to visit, Zhizhi, you should go and meet him and recognize his face."

Lin's mother also agreed. She wanted to invite Li Yanqi to bring Li Zhaofeng to the Lin family for dinner, but she also thought carefully that Li Zhaofeng was in poor health and did not want to show up, so they could not force him.

"Zhizhi, you and Yanqi should go meet him." He turned to Li Yanqi and said, "It just so happens that I still have a lot of dried persimmons, plus the pickles I just made. They're not worth much, so let's just enjoy some fresh food."

To be honest, Lin Yanyu has always been curious about Li Zhaofeng.

Could it be that this useless man who could teach Li Yanqi such great skills was really just an ordinary bodyguard?

It’s no wonder she thought too much, this Li Zhaofeng was just too mysterious.

With a longing in her heart, Lin Yanyu met "Li Cripple", whom she had only heard of in rumors, in Li Yanqi's house by the river.

His gray hair seemed to have been specially combed, and he was wearing a clean and tidy robe. His peaceful expression made him look a lot younger. His two trouser legs were empty from the knees, floating under the chair...

Lin Yanyu hurried forward and performed a standard bow.

"Greetings to Uncle Li."

Li Zhaofeng slowed down his gaze and looked at him. He forced a smile as if he hadn't smiled for a long time.

"You have good taste, you found such a generous and decent wife. Please take a seat."

In his heart, he was secretly surprised. In this remote countryside, the way the girl in front of him saluted was exactly the same as that of the aristocratic ladies who had been strictly trained in Kyoto.

Li Zhaofeng asked her with a curious look in his eyes: "I heard that your father is a scholar, and your mother is a local. Are they both in good health?"

"Yes, my father has been teaching at Qingfeng Academy for fifteen years, and my mother is from Qingshan County, Chongzhou Prefecture. Thank you for your concern, uncle. They are both in good health."

Li Zhaofeng secretly thought that they were all locals of Chongzhou, and his tense body relaxed. He asked with a smile: "How did a good girl like you get to know that bad boy?"

"I met him once when I was a child. A few days ago, I met a bad guy in the market and was saved by Li Yanqi..."

"So that's how it is. You two are destined to meet each other. But I didn't expect that you had met each other when you were young. After all, this brat was very ugly when he was young."

Li Zhaofeng thought about the anger he had endured from Li Yanqi over the years and continued to pour oil, saying, "She's so skinny, small, and ugly, even dogs would hate her."

"What are you talking about, old man?! Don't say bad things about me in front of my wife!"

Li Yanqi, who was cooking in the kitchen and eavesdropping at the same time, came out of the kitchen with a bunch of vegetables, while hurting Li Zhaofeng at the same time.

"When my wife was little, she was fair, kind, and cute. She gave me a bun when she saw me. If it weren't for that bun, I wouldn't even have the chance to lie in a mass grave. How could you, an old man, pick her up and make you worry-free about food and clothing now? You, an old man, are ugly and lame, but no one wants you. If you envy me, just say so."

Li Zhaofeng angrily picked up the green dates on the plate and threw them at Li Yanqi's head, cursing, "You stinky boy, I shouldn't have saved you and let you die in a mass grave."

Li Yanqi dodged the green date with his quick eyes and hands, and said in a mean way: "Lululu, you old bastard, I can't hit you, I can't hit you."

Li Zhaofeng pointed at him and trembled, and complained to Lin Yanyu.

"Look! Look! That's it. When you two get married, if he gets mad at you like this, just let him go out and sleep on the street!"

Li Yanqi was afraid that he might not anger Li Zhaofeng to death, so he wanted to continue making fun of him.

I received a disapproving look from my sweetheart.

"Didn't they say that someone else would come over to eat together later? If you delay any longer, everyone will be hungry."

Li Yanqi made a face at Li Zhaofeng and went in obediently.

Seeing Li Zhaofeng looking towards the kitchen with a gloomy face, Lin Yanyu felt amused at the way they got along with each other, but it was not good to eat while angry.

To ease the atmosphere, he said, "Uncle, did you come up with the name Li Yanqi? Peaceful seas and clear rivers, longevity as long as the sky, the meaning is really good."

Hearing this, Li Zhaofeng smiled with a hint of something else in mind, "Yes, I gave it to him. This kid didn't even have a name until he was seven years old. But the meaning of this name is not what you said."

Lin Yanyu tilted her head slightly and asked in confusion: "What is that?"

"When I found him, I had just suffered a major setback. I wanted to perish with everything in this world. I hated myself deeply, so Yan Qi hated me as well."

Lin Yanyu's delicate brows frowned.

Li Zhaofeng put one hand into his chest, fumbled slowly for a long time, and took out a pearl bracelet. With a look that Lin Yanyu couldn't understand, he looked at the bracelet in his hand for a long time and handed it to her.

"This worthless amber was originally carried with the boy since he could remember. He treasured it so much when he was a child that he hid it in secret places for fear that it would be snatched away. Later, he hid it so much that he forgot about it, what a jerk."

Li Zhaofeng cursed with a smile.

"I heard that you were going to get married, so I took it out and used some pearls to make a string of beads myself. I'll treat it as a gift to you. Please don't despise it."

Lin Yanyu reached out to take it, and saw a reddish-brown amber in the pearl bracelet. This color of amber is indeed not worth much, but what is rare is that there is a deep red moon in the middle of this piece of amber, which looks unique and beautiful.

In addition to the pearls, the other beads that go with this cheap amber include a bright red coral. Corals of this color and size are not very common. She seemed to have seen it somewhere, but it was so long ago that she couldn't remember where.

"Thank you, uncle. I like it very much."

While they were chatting, Li Yanqi had already swiftly prepared four dishes and placed them one by one on the table in front of them with a tray.

Just at this time.

"Brother, we are here."

Ma Xigui, holding a jar of wine, appeared in the yard with Chen Ermu, who was also holding two purses in his hands.

When the two saw Lin Yanyu, they greeted her in unison: "Hello, sister-in-law."
