As he was speaking, the butler ran in with a joyful face and shouted, "Master, Madam, the Marquis has returned triumphantly from the battlefield, and the troops have assembled outside the city!"

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she immediately retorted to the housekeeper: "How can you yell so loudly? If I don't manage the family anymore, then I won't care about your dignity for several lifetimes!"

Hearing this, the housekeeper slapped his forehead and turned around and ran away: "Oh, I think I am really getting old and confused. Now I should go and inform the third lady!"

After hearing this, Xu became even angrier and quickly chased after the butler, but she could no longer see any trace of the housekeeper.

Bo Jinxiu was even more unhappy than Xu, so he simply lay down on the bed and ignored everything.

Xu leaned against the door and cursed for a while before turning around. She found that Bo Jinxiu had fallen asleep, which made her even more angry.

But she still tidied herself up and immediately went to the old lady to please her.

The old lady was very happy. She held Shen Yiran's hand and kept saying, "That's great! It's not too long. I haven't wronged you for too long. We can finally get married!"

The wedding was only carried out at one step. The wedding reception, wedding ceremony and bridal chamber were supposed to take place, but they ended at the wedding reception.

Shen Yiran is equivalent to a person wearing a red wedding dress and getting married to Bo Jinnian's stand-in.

And Bo Jinnian was not going on an ordinary journey, but to suppress bandits. If anything happened to him, Shen Yiran's life would be over.

The old lady didn't say it, but in her heart she always felt that the Bo family owed Shen Yiran. Who knew that Shen Yiran didn't care at all and never mentioned a word.

That's why the old lady was so excited and grateful to God at this moment.

Shen Yiran blushed slightly, but he drooped his eyelids and didn't know what to say.

Xu was very happy. Now that Bo Jinnian was back, Bo Jinxiu had no chance!

"Of course the old lady is happy, and everyone is happy too, but I guess my sister is the happiest one, right?"

Shen Yiran blushed and said shyly, "Sister-in-law, please stop making fun of me."

The old lady patted Shen Yiran's hand. Seeing her blushing face and shy face, she felt even more affectionate and hugged her and said, "Good child, you are already a member of our Bo family, don't be shy."

In fact, Shen Yiran was more nervous than embarrassed.

After Bo Jinnian had reviewed the troops and fought, he bathed and changed his clothes in the military camp, then went to the palace to report the imperial decree. The emperor was so delighted that he granted him a meal in the palace, and he did not return to the marquis's residence until the afternoon.

Bo Jinnian first went to pay his respects to the old lady, then to his mother, and finally returned to his own courtyard.

Everything in Wuya Courtyard was still the same, except that between the two small figures who usually greeted him, there was now a graceful Shen Yiran.

Ji Sicheng and Ji Siyue immediately let go of Shen Yiran's hands, ran towards Bo Jinnian, and hugged one of his arms respectively.

Bo Jinnian yelled, picked up a child with one hand, and turned around a few times on the spot.

The two children seemed to play like this every time, spinning in the air and giggling. Even Ji Sicheng, the usually mature little adult, finally returned to his childish appearance.

Shen Yiran smiled and looked at Bo Jinnian, whose skin seemed to be darker and had a new scar on his forehead.

He is a handsome and heroic man with a firm gaze, a lot of thoughts, and is taciturn but straightforward.

Bo Jinnian was also looking at Shen Yiran. She was the woman destined to be his wife since birth, so Bo Jinnian always took it for granted.

Besides that, he didn't know what else there should be.

Both of them seemed a little confused and felt awkward.

Fortunately, there were two children around and it was quite lively, so the two of them were able to talk to each other.

"The prescription you gave me is very useful. There was a plague in the area, and it also spread among the army. If it weren't for the prescription you gave me, many people, civilians, soldiers, and even me, would not have survived."

After saying this, Bo Jinnian stood up swiftly and bowed deeply to Shen Yiran.

"Don't!"

Shen Yiran had already known this would happen, so she gave him the prescription, but not because he was her husband.

So he stood up and bowed in return, saying: "The Marquis's family is loyal and dedicated to the country and the people. Good people are blessed by heaven, and it is not achieved by my prescription alone. My Lord, please raise your head."

After hearing this, Bo Jinnian raised his head, reached out to support Shen Yiran's elbow, and helped her stand up.

Ji Siyue covered her mouth with both hands and shouted happily: "Daddy and Mommy are getting married in the hall!"

Shen Yiran blushed immediately and turned around to explain, but Bo Jinnian said to Ji Siyue: "We are husband and wife, we are just getting married, it's not strange or against etiquette, so stop laughing, your little mouth is cracked from laughing."

Ji Siyue dodged Bo Jinnian's hand that was pinching her cheek and happily threw herself into Shen Yiran's arms.

Shen Yiran was caught off guard and almost fell backwards, but Bo Jinnian supported her back and protected her.

Shen Yiran blushed and didn't dare to look up, for fear of meeting Bo Jinnian's eyes.

Just a quiet thank you.

Bo Jinnian watched Shen Yiran's red lips open and close, briefly and lightly, as if a butterfly flapped its wings while perching on a flower.

As soon as the two of them sat down, they heard the old lady's voice coming from outside.

The old lady came in with a cane and said with a smile, "How about the two little ones sleep with the old lady tonight?"

When Ji Siyue heard this, she immediately hid her hands behind her back, not wanting anyone to take her hand and take her away. She pouted and said, "No, I want to sleep with my daddy and mommy!"

Ji Sicheng pulled his sister and said, "Be obedient, let's go to the old lady's room to sleep!"

But Ji Siyue is young and more dependent, so she didn't understand and was about to cry out of anger.

Shen Yiran quickly hugged Ji Siyue and said, "Okay, Mommy will sleep with you, okay?"

Bo Jinnian understood what he heard, but he just sat there and said nothing.

Instead, the old lady came over and persuaded with a smile: "Dad just came back and has a lot to say to mom, Xiao Yueyue, can you let them talk properly?"

Ji Siyue was a little confused, and Ji Sicheng helped to explain: "Let's sleep with Daddy and Mommy in a few days?"

"OK then."

Ji Siyue seemed to have made a lot of concessions and felt extremely aggrieved.

Shen Yiran knew what the old lady meant. She wanted them to consummate their marriage tonight. Even though he knew this day would come, he still felt nervous as it approached.

He quietly raised his eyelids to observe Bo Jinnian's expression and found that his face was normal without any fluctuation. He did not find it difficult to accept, nor did he look happy.

This made Shen Yiran even more uneasy.

Yes, although Bo Jinnian had protected her before, she was very touched, and she felt the same way now.

But in the final analysis, I don't know much about Bo Jinnian, and I'm unsure about him, so I feel uneasy.

The old lady thought that Shen Yiran's silence was due to girlish shyness, so she told Qiu Ju to make arrangements and take out the bright red wedding quilt that had been put away and lay it out again.

A red lantern was hung high with a word "喜" (happiness) written on it.

It seems like everything is going to happen again!
