130 People Are In High Spirits When Happy Things Happen
“You don’t have to worry about the Zhao family. We’ll talk about the rest after the wedding. As for Zhao Panpan, you don’t have to worry about her.” Zhao Ruifeng let out a deep sigh. What could he do about his simple and silly wife? How could she fight against Zhao Panpan, that scheming person?
Zhao Ruifeng’s face was full of melancholy. He had already begun to think about how to protect Jiang Xi and let her gain a foothold in Jing City. Wu Tielong took in all of Zhao Ruifeng’s expressions. He only wanted to ask, ‘When did you go blind?’ Had he forgotten the days when he was surrounded by wolves, tigers, and leopards in the forest so quickly?
Zhao Ruifeng did not know that Wu Tielong was making fun of him in his heart. He brought Jiang Xi and the others to the door of a big house, “I have already bought this house. I was afraid that you would not be able to take care of your relationship with your neighbors, so I have also bought the two houses around here. Further away are the military officials in the Imperial court. They are all not as strong as me and their positions are not as high as mine. You don’t have to be afraid of offending them. If you like these three houses, you can connect them together. If you don’t like them, you can leave them empty.
The house in the middle had a plaque hanging on it, and on the plaque were two big words, ‘ Jiang residence’.
“My sister has no foundation in Jing City and no connections. She doesn’t even have a dowry. You even have to find a place for her to live. You’re such a high-ranking official. Won’t people laugh at you if you marry a useless wife? ” Jiang Shan followed him into the Jiang residence and asked Zhao Ruifeng as he looked at the fake mountains and fake rivers in the garden.
Zhao Ruifeng did not even turn his head. “The people in Jing City have opened a gambling den for me. They’re betting on whether I can marry a wife this time. Everyone’s bet is unsuccessful, but i’m successful. When the time comes, all the money won will be given to Jiang Xi as private money. Besides, I’ve failed my engagement seven or eight times. Now, everyone thinks that I’m lucky to get a wife, not to mention…” He glanced at Jiang Xi, who was walking in front of him. ‘What’s more, she’s such a good wife.’ Zhao Ruifeng, who had been smart since childhood, smiled foolishly.
Jiang Shan was relieved. Before he came to Jing City, he did not think that Zhao Ruifeng and Jiang Xi had noticed anything, but now he saw the gap between them. There were some things that he had to ask in advance. If Zhao Ruifeng disliked his sister, Jiang Xi, he would beat Zhao Ruifeng up and take Jiang Xi home. He would not have to do anything to Zhao Ruifeng anymore. After all, anyone who broke off his sister’s engagement would not end well.
Zhao Ruifeng only felt a chill under his feet, not knowing that he had almost fallen into a big pit.
“You can stay here in peace. When the selection of conscubines is over next month, our marriage will be put on the agenda. Don’t be afraid. I will protect you here,” Zhao Ruifeng said to Jiang Xi awkwardly.
The crowd rolled their eyes. They could not understand why Zhao Ruifeng would think that Jiang Xi would be bullied!
Zhao Ruifeng probably still felt that it was not enough, and said, “If any of your sisters-in-law speaks ill of you, you can hit them back. It’s fine. I can take care of anyone you mess with in Jing City, as long as you don’t hit the two in the palace. Erm… it’s fine if you can’t hold back and hit them. Don’t be afraid. I can also negotiate with them. The emperor doesn’t want me to be too close to him every time I go to court, ” Zhao Ruifeng muttered, still thinking about what else he had that the emperor would like.
Wu Tielong could not bear to look anymore. He knew that it was not easy for Zhao Ruifeng to get a wife, but he should not spoil his wife like this! Jiang Xi was already scary enough, and there was also Zhao Ruifeng, who did not mind making things worse. He kept Jiang Xi, a great killing weapon, like a little white rabbit. This couple together could pierce the sky!
However, Jiang Shan was still nodding his head vigorously at the side.’Yes, yes, yes. If he wanted to be my brother-in-law, he should protect my sister like this!’
The news of Zhao Ruifeng’s marriage quickly spread throughout Jing City. This time, his fiancée did not become a monk, did not fall to death, did not drown, and did not choke to death while eating porridge. She was a living fiancée.
Zhao Ruifeng felt like he was floating when he thought about getting a wife. People would be in high spirits when happy things happen. His title as a black-faced fiend was about to be lost. After all, his peers’ children could already help their families, and he had yet to get a wife. Now that he finally got a wife, he was simply ecstatic!
However, the people in Jing City soon discovered the problem.”Go, send me twenty pieces of the latest and most fashionable materials to the Jiang residence.”
