There are too many girls, which greatly delays my cultivation of immortality.

Everyone froze on the spot, quite surprised.

"Master Ye?!" Lin Zhengnan said in disbelief.

"Hahaha..." The man in white laughed heartily in the distance and walked up to us, "You didn't expect it, but I, Ye Qingchen, actually arrived before you!"

Everyone was surprised and happy, and quickened their pace to meet him.

When the two girls saw the face clearly, it turned out to be Ye Qingchen, and they immediately stopped, embarrassed to continue approaching.

Ye Qingchen greeted several men and Mrs. Wang one by one, and said: "As soon as Ye returned home, he heard from his father-in-law that you had been here and sent you things, but it was a pity that we didn't meet him. Ye was really worried, so So I chased after him, no matter what, I have to thank my uncles and aunts in person!"

"Young Master Ye is so polite. You are the great benefactor of our Lin family. You have long wanted to visit Xiaodongping. We just prepared some local specialties and we can't sell them. Why do you want to make a special trip to express your thanks? Lin Zhengnan said.

Everyone stood in a group and exchanged pleasantries.

Lin Zhengyang said: "Since Mr. Ye is here, why don't we cross the river together and go to his home to talk?"

Ye Qingchen smiled and said: "I just got home and stayed up all night, I'm afraid it's still not good. Uncle Zhengyang's kindness is appreciated by Ye. After a few days, I will make a special trip to visit you. I will see you today and say Just a few words will do.”

"But it's getting late, you still have to rush back?" Lin Zhengyang said worriedly.

Lin Zhengnan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Zhengyang, Mr. Ye is an expert. He can travel thousands of miles in a day. How can we compare to him?"

Lin Zhengyang suddenly realized: "That's right, otherwise, how could you have arrived here before us?"

Wang turned her head and glanced at her two shy daughters standing not far away, smiled slightly, approached Ye Qingchen and said:

"Mr. Ye just returned tonight. He should be reunited with his relatives in the Liu family, so let's not force him to invite him. Why don't we go back to the village first and let Zixia and Qingxia accompany him for a walk by the river and look at the scenery!"

Everyone agreed.

Although the two girls were shy, they did not object.

So the Lin family said goodbye to Ye Qingchen and walked towards the ferry.

Ye Qingchen stepped forward, and Qingxia called "Brother Qingchen" with tears in her eyes.

Zixia frowned slightly and turned her face to one side, obviously a little unhappy.

Ye Qingchen smiled and said: "I remember we parted here last time. At that time, I told you two to grow more fat, but why did you lose weight instead? Did you not listen to my brother?"

Qingxia said nervously: "No... no, I... I eat well, but... it just doesn't last long!"

Ye Qingchen smiled slightly and took her little hand, feeling that his palms were all sweaty.

"I believe sister Qingxia is the best-behaved!" Ye Qingchen reached out and wiped the tears on her face.

Qingxia's body trembled slightly, and her face was filled with a happy smile.

"But why is your sister so unhappy to see me?"

Qingxia helped explain: "My sister is very happy, but she just... just doesn't like to talk!"

Zixia snorted coldly and said angrily: "You are already married, but you didn't tell us, and you want us to be your concubines without knowing it!"

Ye Qingchen smiled and said: "I didn't think so much at the time. I didn't mean to hide it from you. Look at how stingy you are. Besides, what's the difference between being a concubine and being a wife? You care so much about this status. ?”

After saying that, he was going to hold Zixia's hand.

Zixia, however, avoided letting him hold her, her eyes turned red and she shed tears.

Ye Qingchen ignored her, led Qingxia to the river, and asked, "Are you willing to be my concubine?"

Qingxia replied without hesitation: "I am willing. As long as I can be with brother Qingchen, I am also willing to be a maid!"

After saying that, she turned back to look at her sister worriedly, and then persuaded: "Brother Qingchen, my sister is a bit stubborn and has no idea. Please don't be angry with her, okay?"

Ye Qingchen said with a straight face: "Why am I angry? She doesn't want to see me so much, it's obvious that she has someone else in her heart!"

Qingxia hurriedly shook her head and said: "No...no, my sister only loves you in her heart!"

Ye Qingchen sighed and said: "Oh, forget it, forceful melons are not sweet. Since she is unwilling, I will naturally not force her!"

Qingxia hurriedly explained: "No, she is willing. She has lost weight these days because she misses you and doesn't think about food and tea. My father was worried that she wouldn't be able to bear it, so he went to discuss with the head of the family and decided to take us Sister, let’s go to your house!”

Ye Qingchen looked back at Lin Zixia, who was crying with grievance and tears. As expected, her face was haggard and she had lost a lot of weight.

He knew that the two sisters had very different personalities.

Qingxia is docile and cute, with a heartless look.

Zixia is strong and stubborn, and her emotions are buried in her heart. After learning that he was married, Zixia went into a dead end and felt that she had been deceived.

The two sisters were equally good, and he was not willing to leave either of them behind. He just wanted to anger Zixia in return.

Qingxia stepped forward and pulled Zixia over, and gently persuaded: "Sister, please say a good word to Brother Qingchen!"

Zixia lowered her head, wiped away her tears, and stood next to Ye Qingchen.

Qi returned to Qi, but if she really wanted to give up Ye Qingchen, it would be absolutely impossible. Just now she saw Ye Qingchen dragging her sister away, as if he wanted to leave her behind, and her heart suddenly collapsed.

If Ye Qingchen didn't want her, she might really not have the courage to live anymore.

As if she had made a lot of determination, she reached out and held Ye Qingchen's sleeve, shaking it slightly.

"Brother Qingchen, I...I..." He hesitated for a long time, but was speechless.

Ye Qingchen knew that with a character like her who was not even afraid of death, it was already difficult for her to bow her head and admit her mistakes. Seeing her pitiful look, my heart suddenly felt soft.

But he still deliberately said with a straight face: "Do you have someone else in mind, so you don't want to follow me?"

Zixia shook her head vigorously: "I'm just... just... afraid that you won't want me or abandon me in the future!"

Ye Qingchen smiled slightly and already understood why she had such a strong reaction after knowing that she was going to be a concubine.

At that time, it was still strictly monogamy. Marrying a wife requires an official procedure, and the government issues a marriage certificate. Moreover, the wife's status is protected by law. If she no longer wants the wife, she must go through the divorce process, just like divorce on earth.

But as long as you have money and can afford it, you can take a concubine at will. There is no need to go through official procedures to take a concubine. A concubine is actually like a piece of property of the male owner, which can be transferred, sold, mortgaged... In short, it means a low status.

The reason why Shi Yingchun had no objection to being a concubine was because she had been with Ye Qingchen for a long time and knew Ye Qingchen's character.

Moreover, she and Liu Yifei were also sisters, and they knew that even if they were concubines, they would not be enslaved by the head wives of the family.

Zixia didn't know Ye Qingchen, let alone his wife, so it was hard for her to predict what her fate would be in the future.

How can you not be sad when your ideals collapse in an instant?

Ye Qingchen took Zixia's hand, and she didn't avoid it this time.

"Don't worry, in my Ye family, wives and concubines are the same. I, Ye Qingchen, will never abandon any of my family members!"

"Really?" Zixia raised her head in surprise, her big round eyes wide open.

Ye Qingchen took her into his arms and said, "Ye Qingchen is true to his word!"

Zixia was shocked, struggled slightly, then gave up resistance and rested her head on his shoulder.

Ye Qingchen gently stroked her hair and comforted her: "Don't let your wild thoughts stop!"

"Yeah!" Zixia nodded vigorously.

After a while, Ye Qingchen let go of Zixia, only to see Qingxia pouting at the side.

"What's wrong with you?" Ye Qingchen asked.

Qingxia said enviously: "My sister has... hugged me all!"

Ye Qingchen smiled secretly: Everything must be fair to the twins. What will happen during the wedding in the future? I am so incompetent!

"You want a hug too?"

"I don't want it!" Qingxia giggled and ran away playfully.
