Chapter 144: If Feng'er bullies you, I'll teach him a lesson
Qin Feng had a dream. In this dream, he and Liu Jianli were leading a happy life.
One responsible for earning money to support the family, the other, beautiful and unbeatable.
They had a son and a daughter. The boy was as handsome as him, and the girl was as beautiful as her.
But just as he was immersed in his sweet dream, a voice sounded in his mind and poured cold water on him: “You are not allowed to have sex before you reach the seventh rank, you loser!”
Damn!
Qin Feng woke up abruptly, gasping for breath.
“Seventh grade, I must enter the seventh grade as soon as possible.” He clenched his fists, swearing.
“Why are you in such a hurry to enter the seventh grade?”
“Because, without entering the seventh grade, I can’t share a room.” Qin Feng sighed, then suddenly came to his senses.
Huh?
Where did the voice come from?
He turned his head and then widened his eyes.
In the room, on the chair in front of the table, there was a figure in white.
Flowing black hair, as beautiful as a heavenly being.
Isn’t it Liu Jianli!
How did she end up in my room?
“Share a room?” Liu Jianli repeated in her mouth, placing her jade-like hand in front of her lips, bowing her head in contemplation, as if pondering something.
Awkward. Qin Feng hastily spoke, “Why are you here?”
Liu Jianli’s train of thought was interrupted, and she slowly stood up, “Ningshuang told me that after getting married, the bride should go to serve tea to the father-in-law and mother-in-law. I didn’t know about it before. Now that I’ve heard, I naturally have to make up for it and not lose courtesy.”
So that’s it. Qin Feng nodded, “Let me change into clothes, and we’ll go together.”
“Okay.” Liu Jianli nodded slightly and then stood there without moving.
Wait, I said I was going to change clothes, and you didn’t try to avoid it. Qin Feng felt a bit embarrassed.
Although the two were husband and wife in name, they hadn’t reached the point of being honest with each other. Naturally, he felt a bit awkward.
“Fortunately, the ancient people’s sleepwear is quite sturdy, and I don’t have the habit of sleeping naked. If it were in the previous life…” Qin Feng shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
He lifted the quilt and put on his clothes.
After washing up, he left the room with Liu Jianli.
Lan Ningshuang was also waiting at the door of the room. Seeing the two, she smiled and nodded in greeting.
Then the three of them walked towards the main hall of the Qin residence together.
Qin Jian’an was originally drinking tea and chatting with the second mother. When he saw the three of them, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes.
The second mother was also surprised and happy, “You guys, how come you’re here?”
She looked at Liu Jianli, who could stand and walk again, with a gratified and happy expression.
Qin Feng cleared his throat, narrating the whole story.
Dad nodded and said with a smile, “So that’s how it is.”
The second mother, upon hearing this, smiled. She called Qing’er over, whispered something to her, and then Qing’er hurriedly left.
Lan Ningshuang brought over freshly brewed tea, slowly handing it to her young mistress, signaling with her eyes.
Liu Jianli understood and extended her snowy wrist, taking the tea a few steps forward, and presented it, saying, “Father, please have some tea.”
Qin Jian’an, seeing this, smiled with joy. He uttered a few words of gratitude, then took the tea and sipped it.
Liu Jianli turned around, picked up another cup of tea, and handed it to the Second Mother, saying, “Mother, please have some tea.”
The Second Mother, accepted the tea with a smile on her face, although her eyes were red, expressing extreme happiness.
Qin Feng, witnessing this scene, also felt a myriad of emotions.
According to his understanding of ancient customs, what would follow is the Second Mother advising Liu Jianli on how to be a good wife.
Sure enough, the Second Mother spoke, “Jianli, since you are willing to address me as mother, from now on, we are truly a family.
There are some things I’ll entrust to you. If in the future, Feng’er bullies you, you must tell me, and I will help you teach him a lesson.”
Huh? The script seems a bit off. Qin Feng raised his head, looking at the Second Mother with a bewildered expression.
Where did his usually doting Second Mother go? Moreover, how could a scholarly young man like him bully a high-ranking martial warrior?
This joke seemed a bit too much.
Fortunately, at this moment, Old Master Qin looked displeased and spoke, “Madam, what are you talking about?”
Indeed, in such situations, his own father, also a man, could be relied upon. Qin Feng sighed inwardly.
Little did he know, his father’s words took a turn, “Jianli, marrying Feng’er has indeed been tough for you.
But rest assured, if he bullies you in the future, just tell me. His mother is softhearted; she might not take strict measures, but I will make sure to teach him a lesson.”
Qin Feng, upon hearing this, stood frozen on the spot.
He always felt like he wasn’t the young master of the Qin family, but rather an unwelcome pitiful and helpless son-in-law. On the other side, Lan Ningshuang couldn’t help but laugh at the young master’s expression.
At that moment, Qing’er hurriedly returned, holding a delicate wooden box in her hands.
Second Mother took the wooden box, gently opened it, revealing an exquisitely designed golden hairpin with tassels hanging down, looking quite beautiful.
“Jianli, come here,” Second Mother beckoned, “This is the hairpin my mother gave me on my wedding day, and now I’m giving it to you.”
Liu Jianli took the golden hairpin. She had no interest in women’s cosmetics and jewelry, but at this moment, she felt warm inside.
“Thank you, Mother.”
On the side, Qin Jian’an, witnessing this, widened his eyes. He reached for his money pouch, but then his expression stiffened.
“Madam, if you’re giving gifts, why didn’t you inform me in advance? I haven’t prepared anything.” Old Master Qin approached the Second Mother, whispering in a low voice.
Second Mother shrugged it off, “Send Qing’er to buy a piece of jewelry. That should do.”
Qin Jian’an looked troubled. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, but he didn’t have the financial means. The family’s wealth was now under the control of Qin Feng. How could he afford it?
Thinking of this, he looked towards Qin Feng in the hall, planning his next move.
“Feng’er, come out. I need to talk to you.” Old Master Qin looked serious, taking the lead out of the hall.
Qin Feng, puzzled, followed.
“How’s business at Moonlit Pavilion recently?” Qin Jian’an coughed and asked.
Seeing this, Qin Feng smirked. Like father, like son. The saying applies both ways.
“Dad, just say it. How much do you need?”
Old Master Qin immediately raised one finger, “One thousand taels!”
Qin Feng widened his eyes, “Dad, what do you need so much money for?”
“Your Second Mother gave Jianli a golden hairpin from the Imperial Capital’s Divine Workshop. It’s not cheap. I have to give Jianli a similar piece of jewelry. That’s why.” Old Master Qin explained confidently.
“That makes sense, but Dad, it’s not common for fathers to ask their sons for money to buy gifts for daughters-in-law, is it?” Qin Feng showed a strange expression.
“You brat, if I had money, would I need to ask you? Quickly bring it here!” Old Master Qin assumed the posture of the head of the household.
Qin Feng, helpless, honestly took out a thousand taels and handed it over, then gave a disdainful look, turned around, and left.
“Wait, after you go in, call Qing’er out for me,” Old Master Qin instructed.
Before long, Qing’er, dressed in a blue dress, came out of the hall, curious, “Master, any orders?”
Qin Jian’an estimated the price of the golden hairpin. He took out five hundred taels from the money pouch Qin Feng had given earlier and said, “Hurry to the jewelry store in the city and buy the best piece of jewelry.”
“Yes, Master.” Qing Er accepted the money and left in a hurry.
Seeing her leave, Qin Jian’an carefully put away the remaining money and casually returned to the hall.
