Chapter 242.2: Mutually Shouldering the Pot, Returning To the Maiden Home

Li Hong Ming wanted to vomit blood. Men gathering together, if not drinking wine, what else can they do? The one with the least qualifications to say these words was precisely you. And now, actually pretending to be pure and innocent here, who are you pretending for? Practically just, practically just…………..

Li Hong Yuan looked to Jing Wan. Jing Wan was a bit stupefied. What did this mean? Could it be that this pot needed for her to shoulder too? Hey, you can’t mess with people like this! Li Hong Yuan however didn’t avert his gaze. Jing Wan just felt her scalp going numb. This was ‘if one doesn’t say something, it won’t be over with’? Or perhaps, if one doesn’t go along with him, it’ll just be even more endless? Moreover, her own husband’s stage can’t be torn down either, wasn’t that just equal to slapping one’s own face? “All brothers of the same family, so purely just bonding is still doable.”

Li Hong Yuan nodded, a look of ‘whatever Jing Wan says is whatever it is’ expression.

Never mind the crowd being dumbstruck, even the carefree smile on Jing Wan’s face was all about to fall apart, and inside, she further groaned in agony, grandmother save me, Jin Qinwang wants to ‘play with fire’ with her, she can’t hold up.

“Then, just invite you all some other time. Tomorrow, still need to go to the Luo Manor, so will just take one’s leave first.” Li Hong Yuan’s attitude was very good, practically making them overwhelmed by the sudden favor.

Pulling along Jing Wan, he left ahead of them.

And those that were left in place, not a single one wasn’t looking to one another in dismay. Which act is he acting out this time?

Jing Wan also wanted to know what he wanted to do.

Li Hong Yuan lifted a brow, “Do what? Isn’t this helping Wan Wan gain favorable impressions?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Was favorable impressions gained like this? This clearly was wanting to have her pushed out into the waves. Afterwards, Noble Consort Su will probably just ‘invite her for tea’. Unknown as to why, Jing Wan kept having a bad premonition, just like as if something was going to shatter, or perhaps not even just this. In any case, her heart felt a bit fuzzy?

Returning to Jin Qinwang Manor, tomorrow was the first return to the maiden home, so there was indeed quite a few things that need to be prepared.

The people of the Luo family, although weren’t many, it definitely wasn’t few either. And the ones in the same generation as Jing Wan that have already married will all return with their own husbands as well. Counting the time, the two of them should’ve already stabilized their fetus, so the possibility of not returning was truly too small.

Thus, the presents that one needed to prepare just increased, and can’t just directly stuff them money either.

However, when Jing Wan finally learned of this bit, her gaze towards Li Hong Yuan was a bit peculiar. Old bro, you’re actually from the modern world, right? Big and small matters, as long as it was sending a gift, just directly using money to settle, such astuteness, that was the ‘crystalized wisdom’ of the people of her past life. Where did you learn all this from?

“Convenient and saves trouble. Those people are also poor, so money is the most in line with their thoughts.”

“Everything you say is right.” Jing Wan no longer wanted to bicker with him, because he would always have an excuse.

Just when Jing Wan was contemplating on what to give, Gong mama already made a list for her.

Jing Wan was just about to take it when Li Hong Yuan took it instead, and very naturally held Jing Wan to look at it together.

Seemingly since entering this roof, just haven’t separated from his embrace once, can you not hold?

Li Hong Yuan used his actions to tell her: Nope!

Jing Wan didn’t struggle either. The list Gong mama made was very much in line with her intentions. However, the specific selection, one still needed to mull over. All things have the distinction between good and bad, no?

Li Hong Yuan had the list handed to Gong mama, “Tell Mu An to open the inner storehouse, go ahead and just pick out the best.”

“Wangye, this won’t do.” Without even thinking, one just knew that the inner storehouse of Jin Qinwang Manor was equivalent to Li Hong Yuan’s private storage. The things inside certainly were all of the highest quality. This truly was a bit too valuable. It’s not that Jing Wan was stingy towards her maiden family, but that it would instead be a hot potato in their hands. If found out by outsiders, they’ll most likely get attacked by others.

“Don’t worry, the things bestowed by the Emperor that can’t be used are all separately stored, it won’t violate the rules.”

“That’s not………”

“Alright, this prince knows what you’re worried about. Don’t worry, this prince’s things, this prince can give away to anyone this prince wants to give away to. Others have no right to comment. The Luo family had you raised to adulthood, yet in the end, I was the one that benefited. Merely some materialistic things, can they even compare with you, this living treasure? No matter how much is given away, it’s all the Luo family’s loss. I know that every time your grandfather sees me, it’s all through clenched teeth, hating that he can’t beat me up. If this prince still doesn’t give him a bit of compensation, perhaps when visiting tomorrow, he really will beat me up.”

Jing Wan’s face slightly blushed, “Slick tongue.” This sweet talk and honeyed words skill level has probably long maxed out. It’s no wonder he’s able to play ‘extreme pampering’, that kind of high level game. “Don’t slander my grandfather, he’s a cultured person, and also has the style of a scholar. He’s not going to care about this bit of materialistic things.”

“Since it’s just materialistic things, then it further doesn’t matter. Can even give some more.”

Jing Wan was between laughter and tears, “Enough you.”

“Wan Wan, you, this married daughter isn’t qualifying enough. Other family’s married daughters would all move things back to the maiden family with all their might, hating that they can’t have their husband’s family emptied out. Where are they like you, one’s own husband preparing some things all getting turned down and blocked.”

Jing Wan: “……”

Letting them pick out the best, Gong mama naturally didn’t hold back in the slightest, and absolutely didn’t think twice. When facing Li Hong Yuan, her dictionary just didn’t have the word ‘modest’.

When seeing the final things, Li Hong Yuan once again ‘taught’ Jing Wan, “In this area, you should properly learn from your mama, don’t be that stingy, understand? Your husband, I, don’t have anything else, just have a lot of money, and just a lot of these things.”

She was stingy? Is that so? Jing Wan was already too lazy to look at him.

At night, Li Hong Yuan although didn’t do the entire set, but he didn’t let off Jing Wan either. Already a hungry wolf whose eyes have already gone green from hunger to begin with, now that he’s thoroughly opened up his diet, you still count on him to just eat vegetables? The reason why he let Jing Wan off a little was purely because it was Jing Wan’s first time the previous night and indeed had gotten injured. “That’s why, it’s not too good for the man to be too large either?”

Jing Wan covered his face with her palm again. This shameless bastard.

The next day, Jing Wan actually didn’t get up late, and as usual spent a bit of time to do her morning exercises.

This was Li Hong Yuan’s first time watching from start to finish, truly witnessing the flexibility of Jing Wan’s body. Curling up into a circle all wasn’t anything difficult. Stroking his chin, oh, truly was good to the point where it can’t be better.

Jing Wan got up, and seeing his eyes half narrowed with an ‘intoxicated’ look, she just felt her back growing somewhat cold, seemingly as if she’d done something stupid. She casually had the sweaty towel in her hand thrown over, covering his face. Bastard, in your head, aside from dirty material, can’t you think of anything else?

Li Hong Yuan didn’t immediately have the towel removed, instead leaving it on his face and inhaling two whiffs. On there was all Jing Wan’s scent.

Jing Wan: “…………..”

Luo Jing Bo scaled the gates, preparing to take Jing Wan back home.

Jin Qinwang Manor prepared for him a luxurious morning meal, and prior to the meal, Luo Jing Bo received three sets of tea and dessert in succession.

And during the morning meal, Li Hong Yuan had the main seat yielded to him. The elder brother-in-law sitting at the main seat, that was just for ordinary families. The imperial family didn’t have this rule. As such, Luo Jing Bo can be said to be sitting on pins and needles. This wasn’t an honor, but rather torture.

Jing Wan didn’t say anything, and didn’t want to say anything. Li Hong Yuan certainly will have reasons to retort her. She just observed a moment of silence for her own older brother.

After the morning meal, when everything was all in order, the two of them although didn’t wear the court attire and formal gown, they still set out in the qinwang procession. This really wasn’t showing off or anything, but rather expressing their high regard towards the Luo family.

Aside from Luo Pei Shan, the rest of the Luo family all came out to welcome, including her two tang sisters that had already returned a step ahead with their family.

When they saw the procession gradually approach, the originally still relatively carefree big family all separated into male and female and properly stood upright.

Li Hong Yuan climbed down from the horse carriage first, and stood in place, very naturally reaching out to have Jing Wan supported down.

Good or bad, the truth was in the minute details.

Luo Old Madam was very happy, yet inside she was also a bit sour. This was the treasure she raised for more than ten years.

All say the mother-in-law, because of the daughter-in-law stealing the son, would feel discontent inside, then what about the female side’s maiden family? The daughter they painstakingly raised, after marrying, it was all very difficult to even meet a few times, wasn’t that even more upsetting? That’s why, having their daughter married back, should just properly treat them.

“Greetings wangye, wangfei, hope wangye and wangfei are in good health.”

“You all may rise.”

Seeing her family pay their respect to her, Jing Wan had the urge to want to cry.
