The palace announced that Aunt Hu would be conferred the title of second-class wife. Once the decree was issued, Chang ‘an was in heated discussion.

  Some people said that the emperor was giving face to the Xie family. Since Xie Yun was going to marry a wife, she naturally had to give Qiao ruoyi some face.

  There were also many people who secretly laughed at Zheng Xiao. The wife of the Marquis’Concubine was getting married, but she gave an order to her biological mother. wasn’t this giving face to the Marquis’wife?

  There were also some people who guessed that the Empress would definitely not be kind to Qiao Ruoyi in the future.

  However, all of this did not exist when the Qiao family was getting married. Qiao Jinniang’s makeup was considered the most generous among the sisters. She even specially gave Qiao ruoyi the Shang Fang sword that was often mentioned in the book.

  The Shang Fang sword was originally the Emperor’s Imperial Sword. However, according to the folklore, the Shang Fang sword was extremely sharp. The book often mentioned that the Shang Fang sword could be executed first and reported later.

  When Qiao Jinniang gave the sword to Qiao ruoyi, she also gave a verbal order that if Xie Yun dared to bully Qiao ruoyi, Qiao Ruoyi could execute the Shang Fang Sword First and report later.

  When Qiao Ruoyi got married, Zheng Xiao’s eyes were red. He could not bear to part with Qiao ruoyi, and he could not bear to part with niching.

  Niching was brought to the Xie family a day in advance.

  Qiao Ruoyi’s proposal of getting married at noon was rejected by Marquis an yuan. It was impossible for the Xie and Qiao mansions to keep a low profile when they got married. Therefore, the wedding day was still very lively.

  Qiao ruoyi was in the bridal sedan, looking at the people outside through the wedding fan. She thought of the time when she and Luo Wei got married.

  Luo Wei was married into the family. During the wedding, the child in her arms had grown older. During the worship ceremony, Luo Wei supported her everywhere, worried that something would happen to her. At that time, Qiao ruoyi and Luo Wei had not known each other for long.

  But on the wedding day, Luo Wei’s every move made Qiao ruoyi very satisfied.

  Today’s wedding ceremony was much livelier than the previous one, but Qiao Ruoyi was not happy at all. She touched her lower abdomen and sighed heavily.

  After the wedding ceremony, it was the nuptial chamber.

  Qiao Ruoyi was pregnant, so it was naturally impossible for her to have a nuptial chamber. Xie Yun was also outside entertaining the guests.

  Qiao Lui, Qian Yin, and the rest of the Qiao family naturally would not let Xie Yun off so easily. They toasted one after another. Even Xie Yun, who had a good tolerance for alcohol, could not stop them from drinking. In the end, she entered the nuptial chamber drunk.

  Xie Yun walked to Qiao Ruoyi’s side and laughed. “From today onwards, Nichang will be able to call me Daddy.”


  Qiao ruoyi said, “You’re drunk. Stay away from me. Don’t Smoke Me.”


  Xie Yun reached out and gently caressed Qiao Ruoyi’s face. “If I had known earlier, I would have married you. Five years ago, I shouldn’t have just said that I would let you be my concubine.”


  Qiao ruoyi said, “The past is in the past. What’s the use of regretting it?”


  Xie Yun laughed and said, “Fortunately, you can still marry me, unlike little……”


  When Qiao Ruoyi heard Xie Yun’s words, she felt that something was not right. The maids around her all retreated. When she saw that Xie Yun was drunk, she asked, “Do you still have little Jin ‘er in your heart?”


  Xie Yun was drunk after all. He leaned against the bed and said, “At that time, both my parents died. In order to let me live, I had no choice but to pretend to be a woman. As a man, I became a woman. I was very angry.

  But at that time, there was no other way. I was too young and my family was weak. I had no choice but to endure.

  That was until I met Xiao Jin ‘er who came to give me snacks.

  At that time, she was still very young, but she was the little shopkeeper of the Hundred Savory restaurant that everyone in Lin ‘an city knew about. She was sweet-tongued and obedient, especially when the pastries of the hundred savory restaurant were extremely delicious. Her culinary skills were not inferior to those of the chefs that were passed down from aristocratic families.

  Later on, I gained more and more control over the Xie family. Xiao Jin ‘er was also about to get married. At that time, I wanted to let her enter the Xie family, but let her enter the Xie family’s flower……, will she be able to live well in the Xie family’s Dragon Pond and Tiger’s Den?”


  Xie Yun continued, “And her identity as a merchant’s daughter. If I wanted her to enter the Xie family, I could only let her be a concubine. Such a bright and generous woman, entering the back residence as a concubine was a grievance for her. I watched helplessly as she married a son-in-law. All I could do was help her live a better life.

  “Later, when I found out that she was the daughter of the Qiao family and that her husband was the crown prince, I also regretted it. I regretted not marrying her back then.

  “However, not long after his majesty ascended the throne, he said that she would be the only one in the six palaces in the future. I no longer regretted it because I would never give up the pride of the Xie family for Xiao Jin’er. “If she can obtain happiness, I will also be happy for her.”


  Xie Yun was a little thirsty. She stumbled to a corner and poured herself a glass of water. She took a sip and said, “But I still put down the pride of being a member of the Xie family……”


  Qiao ruoyi said, “So you regret it again. You Didn’t marry your sister back then? You’d better not have such thoughts as soon as possible. Now that His Majesty’s sister is very loving, don’t become a burden to them!”


  Xie Yun held Qiao Ruoyi’s waist and shackled her in his arms. He said in her ear, “Today, I understand that His Majesty is willing to give up everything for Little Jin ‘er because he only has little Jin ‘er in his heart.

  “And I was unwilling to give up my pride back then because I only liked the little sister next door. Just because I liked her, I couldn’t give up the pride that I was born with.

  Today, I’m willing to let go of my prejudice because…… I have you in my heart.”


  Qiao ruoyi pushed the drunk Xie Yun away. Her words made her want to vomit. What was the truth after drinking? It should be nonsense after drinking.

  He was willing to marry her because of Nichang and for the child in her belly.

  Only a fool would believe her words!

  The two of them had ten days of rest after their marriage.

  The Xie Yun clan was in Lin ‘an, so Qiao Ruoyi did not have to pay her respects to the Xie family’s ancestors the next day, nor did she have to pour tea and water for the elders.

  When Xie Yun woke up, he had a terrible headache. He did not know how much alcohol he had drunk yesterday. He did not know what he had said when he was drunk. He took the antidote that Lan Xin handed over and drank it in one gulp. Xie Yun asked, “Where is she?”


  “Master, Madam went to the ancestral grave of the Qiao family early in the morning……”


  Xie Yun clenched his hands. Veins were popping out on his hands. “Is she so reluctant to let him go?”


  She could really do something like going to the grave of her ex-husband on the second day of her marriage!

  When Qiao Ruoyi returned, she saw the dark-faced Xie Yun. She said, “What did you say before you married me? The silver of the Xie family will be spent with me. Coincidentally, I have been interested in some of the jewelry in the jewelry pavilion for a long time……”


  Xie Yun said, “It just so happens that I have nothing to do these few days. I’ll accompany Madam to stroll around the jewelry pavilion.”


  Xie Yun pulled little nichang behind Qiao ruoyi and said, “Can You Call Me Daddy Now?”


  Little Nichang raised her head and said, “Daddy.”


  Xie Yun picked up little nichang. It was worth it for her to call her that. As for Qiao ruoyi, she married her for Nichang’s sake. If she was willing to go to Luo Wei’s grave, then so be it.

  Business at the Jewelry Pavilion in mid-september was only ordinary. However, there were many ladies who came over after having their meals at the Hundred Savory restaurant.

  Qiao ruoyi entered. As long as it was placed on the table, she waved her hand and said, “Wrap it up and send it to the Xie family.”
