Da'an's best son-in-law

Although she didn't have much memory of this body, Lian'er had told Ye Chen about what had happened in the past few days. However, Ye Chen kept silent about the incident of falling into the water. In this Jizhou City, Wei Yanran must have thousands of admirers and many suitors. The one in front of her is Yue Song, who is the most fanatical one. In order to win the former's favor, he would even give him a piece of cloth from home. He gave in, which made his father furious and the whole family was in a state of uproar. But it's a pity that his crazy behavior didn't gain Wei Yanran any attention. "Why, what does this brother have to do with you?" Seeing Yue Song, who had an unclear smile on his face and said nothing, Ye Chen simply spoke first. Regardless of whether Yue Song did this or not, he didn't want to fall out with him at this time. Hiding one's capabilities, biding one's time and being patient, has always been his style. After hearing Ye Chen's words, Yue Song put away the folding fan in his hand and looked at Ye Chen in slight surprise. "Brother Ye, don't you know me?" "Brother, please give me some advice." Looking at Ye Chen, whose face was full of confusion, Yue Song was a little unsure at this moment. "I'm from the Yue Family Trading Company, Yue Song, Yanran's childhood sweetheart." Yue Song deliberately emphasized his relationship with Wei Yanran, just to make Ye Chen feel good about it. After all, men are very sensitive about this kind of thing. "Uncle, don't listen to his nonsense. The lady doesn't pay much attention to him at all. It's all his wishful thinking." Hearing Lian'er's dissatisfied muttering, Ye Chen smiled and didn't take it seriously. How could he not listen? The profound meaning of Yue Song's words was revealed, but this kind of provocation would have little effect on him. "It turns out to be brother-in-law. I'm really sorry. I suffered from amnesia after I fell into the water. I didn't recognize brother-in-law. I'm really sorry." Yue Song glanced at Ye Chen with suspicious eyes, but didn't find anything wrong at all. As the rumor said, it was he who sent someone to do it for Ye Chen to fall into the water. He longed for the goddess of the Year of the Rat, who was about to marry a mediocre person like Ye Chen just because of a marriage contract, which was obviously unacceptable in his heart. So he and his men took advantage of Ye Chen being alone, knocked him unconscious and threw him into the river. The idea was simple, it was better to die, otherwise he would be paralyzed, and the marriage would not be possible anyway. But now that Ye Chen was standing here intact, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. The two of them chatted for a while and talked about some topics that were neither salty nor light. Ye Chen found an excuse and planned to leave. Yue Song did not stop him. After all, he had a ghost in his heart and it was inevitable to feel a little uncomfortable when facing the former. But just when Ye Chen had walked some way, he heard Yue Song's voice from behind. "I heard that Brother Ye is reading poetry and books. I wonder if Brother Ye is interested in this year's Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival?" It is already August and the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. It is a tradition in Jizhou City to hold a poetry festival during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Poetry clubs include activities such as viewing lanterns, composing poems, and watching song and dance performances. Every year, most literati, princes and ladies come to participate. Several families, including the Yue Family Trading Company, are the organizers of this poetry meeting. Although the Da'an Dynasty did not suppress business, although such merchant families had great wealth, they were still far inferior to scholars in terms of power and social status. The annual Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival was a way for these families to get closer to talented scholars. Opportunities, which one you value, give some favors, in case it becomes prosperous in the future, so that your family can have some favors in the officialdom in the future. Yue Song looked so enthusiastic at the moment that Ye Chen couldn't refuse, so he had to smile and reply, "Brother Yue is so complimentary. I will definitely go see the world when I have time." Hearing Ye Chen's answer, Yue Song smiled. He nodded and turned around, with a hint of amusement on his face. Before this, Ye Chen had participated in the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival. But when he was playing the drums and passing the flowers, he was stuck in the moment when he was composing an impromptu poem. The latter hesitated for a long time, but he didn't say even a single sentence of the poem. After this incident, Ye Chen gained a mediocre reputation in Jizhou City. Since then, Ye Chen has stopped attending poetry gatherings, but this time, Ye Chen has lost his memory, so he may not stop going. "It seems that there will be a good show for poetry this time." Yue Song seemed to have thought of Ye Chen's embarrassed appearance, smiled softly, flicked his fan, stood up and walked into the hooked door. On the way back, Ye Chen didn't feel anything. On the contrary, Lian'er beside him kept busy and turned his head to look at Ye Chen worriedly from time to time. This move couldn't help but make him a little funny. What's wrong with this girl? After the two of them chased each other for a while, Lian'er was still not as determined as Ye Chen, so she couldn't help but said, "Uncle, you shouldn't have agreed to Yue Song's participation in the poetry meeting." "Why not?" Is it appropriate?" "There's nothing wrong, it's just..." After Lian'er told Ye Chen's previous performance at the Mid-Autumn Poetry Recital in detail, Ye Chen suddenly realized it. I was still wondering why Yue Song, who didn't have a very good relationship with me, invited me to the poetry gathering. This was something that only friends who knew each other would do. It seems that this Yuesong is a weasel paying New Year greetings to the rooster, and he has no good intentions. "He clearly just wants to see my uncle get into trouble again. This Yue Song is really not a good person!" Lian'er was still standing by to defend Ye Chen. "What, don't you want to go? I heard that the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival has a lot of performances." After hearing this, Lian'er's voice of dissatisfaction instantly softened. She really wanted to go. Entertainment activities in this era have always been Not many, such grand events are rare. Before Ye Chen came, she and the lady had to attend every year. But now, she doesn't want Ye Chen to go because she saw with her own eyes how embarrassing the latter was last time. "Don't worry, it won't be too embarrassing this time." Ye Chen has no interest in being in the limelight, but after all, he had a college degree in his previous life, so it would be easy for him not to be embarrassed. Seeing Ye Chen's confident expression, Lian'er said nothing, but the word "disbelief" was written clearly in those big eyes. On their way back, the sky was gradually darkening. At this time, the Jizhou River was more exciting than during the day. The bright and bright lights can illuminate the sky and make the dozens of miles of Ma Xing Street look like daylight. Both sides of the river were filled with the hawking of vendors and the chatter of the crowds. Some ladies who sang music also started singing with their pipa in their arms. Storytellers, fortune tellers, stall sellers... "Green hills beyond the mountains." Outside the building, when will the West Lake singing and dancing end?" Looking at the extremely prosperous Jizhou Night Market in front of him, Ye Chen thought of this poem by Lu You. I wonder if this great poet who cared about his family, country and the world and was dedicated to fighting against the Jin Dynasty really existed in the Da'an Dynasty. Thinking like this, Ye Chen turned his head, but Lian'er was no longer behind him, and was chattering at the stall in front of him, choosing jewelry. After all, she was still a girl of sixteen or seventeen, and she was at the age where she loved to play. Ye Chen smiled and stepped forward to help her choose. Ye Chen wanted to buy one for Lian'er. After all, this little girl had been serving him for so many days, but because he was really short of money, he had to give up. Finally, after falling in love with a jade hairpin, Lian'er happily paid the money, and then the two of them went home. When the two of them returned to Wei's house, it was already very late. Everyone in Wei's house, except for the servants on night watch, had extinguished the lights and rested. Only the two-story attic where Ye Chen lived had the lights on, and Wei Yanran must have been checking the account books there at this time. He is not used to the rest time here yet. It is around ten o'clock, and the entire Wei family has rested. In his previous life, he basically never touched the bed before twelve o'clock, so he always lights the lamp here. Read a book before taking a rest. On the contrary, Wei Yanran's schedule was very similar to his. Every time the lights were turned off, the lights on the second floor were still on. "Miss, quit the school team and go to bed early." In Wei Yanran's boudoir, Lian'er was tidying up the room while advising Wei Yanran who was looking through the account books. "I'm sensible, Lian'er. You can go and rest first. I'll rest after I finish checking today's accounts." Lian'er nodded helplessly and was about to go down when she was stopped by Wei Yanran again. "What did you go with your uncle today to come back so late?" "Nothing, just take your uncle for a walk." "Really?" Seeing the doubt in Wei Yanran's eyes, Lian'er put her little hands behind her. Stop playing with it. Before returning to the Wei family, Ye Chen had already told her that the young lady had a lot of things to do, so don't tell her about it, but Lian'er's face was still too thin, and the little girl would not lie. In the end, Lian'er told Wei Yanran everything about her meeting with Yue Song today. After hearing this, the latter couldn't help but frowned slightly. Ye Chen actually responded so confidently? Can he compose poetry? Although she did not regard Ye Chen as a real husband in her mind, the two were nominally engaged, so Wei Yanran was still concerned about his affairs. Speaking of which, she didn't know much about Ye Chen. She had already sent someone to investigate Ye Chen when she knew that he was her future husband. No matter in terms of character or ability, including literary talent, they are not outstanding. "You can take my uncle to Mr. Song at home to study more these days so that he can be prepared." After instructing Lian'er, Wei Yanran sighed softly. "As of now, that's all it can do."
