Standing under the bare persimmon tree were He Zhiyuan and Lin Yanxia.

Lin Yanyu's playful smile just now dropped. Noticing that the door to the main hall was closed, she looked around but did not see the figures of Lin's father and mother.

When He Zhiyuan saw them, he smiled warmly, bowed, and asked in a gentle voice, "Are you guys also going to return the door ceremony today?"

and also?

Lin Yanxia seemed to be possessed by a ghost. She came over and took Lin Yanyu's arm affectionately.

"I was in a hurry and didn't inform you. I got married to Brother He two days ago. I didn't have the chance to congratulate you on your wedding day, so today I'm here to congratulate you."

Maybe it was because Lin Yanyu's expression was too obvious that made Lin Yanxia feel a little embarrassed.

She smiled stiffly and said, "Sister, I was really too selfish and narrow-minded before, so I misunderstood you and my parents. I was too willful before, but now I know I was wrong. I hope you and my parents won't be angry with me anymore."

Lin Yanyu felt like a poisonous snake was crawling on her body.

She slapped Lin Yanxia's hand in horror.

"Whether your parents forgive you or not is their business. As for me... I think the best relationship is that we have no relationship."

Lin Yanxia's face twisted for a moment. Deep down, she wanted to curse Lin Yanyu, but when she saw He Zhiyuan beside her, she controlled herself and forced a smile.

"Sister, you are so funny. We are a family."

He Zhiyuan seemed to be the same as before, looking handsome and gentle as he looked at Lin Yanyu.

"Yes, Sister Yanyu, we are all a family from now on..."

"Really?"

Li Yanqi raised one of his thick black eyebrows, squinted his eyes, and took a step forward to block his gaze.

"You are so hypocritical, He Zhiyuan. You asked Liu Cheng to plot against me, and now you are talking about being a family?"

Lin Yanyu’s face turned pale with shock, and her dark eyes looked at Li Yanqi.

The latter nodded to her.

When Liu Cheng begged for mercy, he told him that the man who was looking for him promised to recommend Liu Cheng to King Cheng if he could stop him on his wedding day.

Although he had never met the person Liu Cheng said he was going to meet, Li Yanqi was not a fool.

After all, there was only one person who tried every means to prevent him from marrying Lin Yanyu.

He Zhiyuan lowered his head, his eyes a little confused, and said sincerely: "Brother Li, do you have any misunderstandings about me? I may have offended you before. I apologize to you here, just for my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Our relationship should not be so stiff."

The sound of talking outside the door startled the people inside the house.

The door opened with a creaky sound.

Mother Lin poked half of her face out from the main hall, and when she saw her eldest daughter and son-in-law, her sullen face immediately broke into a smile.

"Zhizhi, Yanqi, you are here, come in quickly."

When he saw his youngest daughter and He Zhiyuan, his expression became gloomy again, but he did not close the door after all.

He walked away without changing his expression and went to the kitchen.

He Zhiyuan followed Lin Yanyu and his wife into the room with a gentle smile.

Mr. Lin was making tea in the room. His legs were much better now and he no longer needed to rely on a wheelchair. When he saw his eldest daughter and son-in-law, he stood up immediately.

"Yanyu, Yanqi, you are here. Have you had breakfast?"

Li Yanqi put the gift in his hand on the wooden stand next to him and said with a smile: "Dad, we are here after we have finished eating. Please tell mom not to work anymore. We will just sit and chat with you. I will cook lunch in the afternoon."

Lin Xiucai felt so relaxed after hearing the word "Dad" that he smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.

"Okay, okay, it's good to eat. Let your mother cook. You guys finally came here, so there's no reason for you to cook. Go sit with your uncle later and ask them to come over here for dinner. Let's have some fun together. Lin Yong is always asking for a drinking contest with you."

Li Yanqi smiled and said, "That's great."

Mr. Lin turned his head to look at his eldest daughter. He saw that her hair was tied up with a simple peach blossom hairpin inserted diagonally. She was wearing an ivory-white padded jacket and a purple skirt. Her face was fair with a slight blush, and her eyes were bright and lively. He knew that his eldest daughter was well taken care of.

He nodded with emotion and said to his eldest daughter with a smile, "Your cousin is still at your uncle's house, so it's a good opportunity for you two sisters to get together."

Lin Yanyu's face suddenly broke into a smile.

"Really? Dad, that's great."

Before my cousin Lin Jing got married, she had a very good relationship with Lin Yanyu. They had played together since childhood. When Lin's mother was busy when she was young, it was Lin Jing who took care of her. After Lin Jing got married, they had not seen each other for a long time.

The early death of her cousin Lin Jing in her previous life has always been a regret in Lin Yanyu's heart.

Lin Xiucai poured two cups of hot tea with a smile and said, "This tea was given to me by Huang Xiucai when you got married. It's quite fragrant. Would you like to sit down and taste it?"

His eyes swept over He Zhiyuan and Lin Yanxia standing behind him, and his relaxed expression disappeared.

He Zhiyuan had a gentle smile on his face and stood behind with his hands in his sleeves and his head lowered.

Lin Xiucai was He Zhiyuan's enlightenment teacher, and he had watched him grow up. He still had feelings for him in his heart. It was really a bit pitiful to see him standing there awkwardly.

He sighed, pointed to the chairs and said, "You guys take a seat too."

He Zhiyuan was extremely polite to Lin Xiucai, performed a student's greeting, and said, "Thank you, teacher."

Lin Xiucai poured two more cups and placed them in front of He Zhiyuan and Lin Yanxia, ​​and casually asked He Zhiyuan: "How is the school in the prefecture?"

"Thank you for your concern, teacher. It's OK."

He Zhiyuan reported respectfully: "Mr. Fang of the prefectural school presented the essay written by my student to King Cheng. King Cheng was impressed by my essay and made an exception to recruit me as the head of the Cangbu Division in Qingzhou. I will go to Qingzhou to take up the post tomorrow."

Lin Xiucai didn't care whether He Zhiyuan was loyal to General Xiahou or King Cheng. It was normal for a man to want to make a career in troubled times and choose a master to live with.

He was just curious about what kind of strategy could be valued by King Cheng?

He inquired, “What kind of article is it?”

Mr. Lin and He Zhiyuan discussed this policy paper several times.

Li Yanqi couldn't get a word in at all and just rolled his eyes wildly, which made Lin Yanyu want to hit him.

Li Yanqi reasonably suspected that He Zhiyuan did it on purpose, deliberately mocking his lack of education. He now regretted not killing him last time.

After He Zhiyuan’s dog head was smashed dozens of times in Li Yanqi’s heart.

Mr. Lin finally made a summary of this policy paper.

"Learning never ends. I hope you can remember your original intention and use what you have learned to do practical things for the common people. I know you are a promising child."

After a pause, He Xiucai asked hesitantly: "You and Yanxia...?"

Lin Yanxia put on a smile at the right time, stretched out her hand to hold He Zhiyuan's arm, and said sweetly: "Dad, I have married Brother He, and you are his father-in-law now~"
