After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.

After all, it was a farce caused by misunderstanding, which made everyone in a mess. When I looked at the time, it was almost Hai time.

Mrs. Jin was embarrassed. She could still talk nonsense without changing her expression in front of her own son, but she was obviously open-minded and reasonable in front of outsiders. She turned to look at Yuan Ge and said gently and calmly, "It's getting late now. You must have had dinner. Why don't you stay for a cup of tea before leaving?"

"You're welcome, Aunt Xiang." Yuan Ge smiled, "My husband and I met this servant on the way back after a good meal. We can't drink this tea in a short time. There will be plenty of opportunities later. I'm sure you're tired tonight, so you should rest early. My husband and I will go back first. If we're late, I'm afraid my mother-in-law will worry."

Yuan Ge's words were just a casual remark. Her mother-in-law would not worry and rarely asked about her affairs. The two of them were still in a relatively delicate state of not interfering with each other. But when these words fell into the ears of Mrs. Jin, who had heard about the wife of the Earl of Kejing, they took on another meaning - the mother-in-law at home was very strict and she would be scolded if she came home late.

But after all, she is a new bride, and it would be difficult to explain if she returned late. It was indeed my own lack of consideration.

Mrs. Jin personally escorted her to the door, and then she gently warned, "My daughter, you don't have to worry about the Tong family's affairs. The Tong family holds a flower-viewing banquet every year, and every year no one goes. The relationship between the Jin and Tong families has long been on the surface. What happened today is just a fight between children. It won't affect anything. You can relax... If Auntie was here, I'm afraid it would be even worse!"

Yuan Ge also knew that Mrs. Jin's words were more of a comfort, probably for Song Wenyuan's sake, but she really liked Mrs. Jin's personality, so she responded obediently, "Yes, I know. Aunt, go back, the autumn night is cool."

"Okay, let's go back." Mrs. Jin waved her hand while standing on the steps. "Come to the Jin family when you have time and talk to your aunt."

On the side, Master Jin, who had completely recovered from the pain in his waist, legs, buttocks, and whole body, waved his hands and shouted, "Sister-in-law, wait in the house tomorrow, and I'll go to have a drink with you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he received a slap on the head from his own mother with a fierce face, "Why don't you go in and wash up? You're so dirty!" After saying that, she grabbed her son's ear and walked inside, waving goodbye without looking back.

Walking with big strides and heroic spirit.

Yuan Ge retracted his gaze, propped up his chin and played with the palm-sized wine bottle on the table, chuckling to himself, "After all, he is young, tough, and lively again."

Song Wenyuan glanced at her. She was only sixteen years old, but she was talking like a sixty-one year old. It was really strange.

……

It was already mid-hour when I finally returned to Luofengxuan.

Shiyin and Zhuozhuo had already fallen asleep. Jianshu was waiting in the yard for Yuange. He didn't look tired at all. He said that there was a bowl of white fungus soup warming on the stove in the small kitchen. It was made by Aunt Gui, who was worried that the young lady would be hungry if she came back late.

I just didn't expect to come back so late.

Yuan Ge thought about it and decided not to do it. He was afraid that eating at this time would cause indigestion, so he only told Jianshu to take a bath and went to rest. She didn't need anyone to watch the night, and the servants slept wherever they were supposed to sleep. Shiyin was reluctant at first, and slept secretly under the porch a few times. Every time, she was caught by Yuan Ge, scolded, and sent back to sleep. Recently, she finally corrected herself.

At that time, her brother was seriously ill and she didn't trust anyone else, so she kept watch for him herself. Over the years, her sleep became more and more shallow, and she would wake up at the slightest disturbance. Moreover, she had too many secrets now, and she would either wake up in the middle of the night from nightmares or talk nonsense in her dreams. Naturally, she became more cautious. With someone lying at the door and ready to push the door open at any time, how could she sleep soundly?

In addition, she always takes some time out at night to breathe and regulate her breath. There are many treasures on Zhixuan Mountain. Although this breathing method combined with her homemade medicinal tea cannot help her practice any peerless martial arts, it can always regulate Wen Qian's body, which can hold an embroidery needle but not necessarily perform acupuncture. In her current condition, even if Song Wenyuan voluntarily lies there and lets her perform acupuncture to detoxify, she is afraid that she will not dare to act rashly.

Yuan Ge took a bath and lay down in his clothes, staring at the curtain with his eyes open, thinking about the lame old man whose expression suddenly changed, and the bottle of wine in the little beggar's arms. Somehow, he felt uneasy in his heart, as if he had vaguely touched a secret door, behind which were dangers and murderous intentions.

……

The next morning, Yuan Ge was awakened by a familiar loud voice when he was sleeping soundly.

Jin Yunian's loud voice made her feel headache these days. But Young Master Jin himself didn't know this. He was very familiar and shouted in Luofeng Pavilion, "Where is Song Wenyuan? Eh? Song Wenyuan doesn't live here? ... He and my sister-in-law are living separately? Oh, you stinky man! You've only been married for a few days, and you're still living separately? Is he hiding a mistress in his golden house or preparing to take a concubine?"

He spoke intermittently, obviously talking to someone. The other person's words could not be heard clearly, only his voice could be heard five or six miles away.

"If you ask me, it's because my sister-in-law is too soft-hearted. She let Song Wenyuan be so ungrateful and greedy! Is my sister-in-law angry? I'll take her to find a place to fight! Can anyone in my Jin family be bullied by Song Wenyuan?"

Someone from Old Jin's family? The half-open door suddenly stopped. Yuan Ge gritted his teeth and wanted to turn around and close the door, but although Young Master Jin was nagging, he had a good look and rushed over in three or two steps, grinning, "Little sister-in-law, are you awake?"

Isn't it obvious? If someone can stay awake under such a loud voice, then he is not asleep, but dead asleep! Besides, how did I become your Jin family? I am from Zhixuanshan Yuan family, or at least Wen family, or at least Song Wenyuan's surname, and I have nothing to do with your Jin family...

Yuan Ge had no idea how much weight Jin Yunian's words "old Jin family" carried. At the moment, she just thought the boy's noisy behavior was both interesting and annoying. She nodded and changed the subject, "You...have you had breakfast? You just came to have a drink with me, or you'll be whipped by your mother again."

Jin Yunian exclaimed "Oh!" and then seemed to have just remembered something. He waved his hand and drove away the maid who had just replied. Then he took the wine jar and took two or three steps forward, saying slyly, "Sister Wen Qian, I think this wine...it really has problems!"

She was his sister-in-law before, but now she has become a member of his family, Jin’s, and has become his sister.

Yuan Ge smiled lazily and nodded in agreement, "I know. Your mother said last night that some pickled stuff was added to it... I think you should throw it away and don't drink it by mistake."

Jin Yunian shook his head, lowered his voice even more, and leaned close to Yuan Ge and whispered, "No, that's not what I meant. I mean, the things in here... should be even more filthy than my mother thought..."

Yuan Ge was stunned. The uncomfortable premonition he had before falling asleep last night came back again.
