The woman's round eyes were fixed on Xia Yingying, who was caught off guard by this sudden request.

She is also a novice. She and Lu Ziren have the same goal. Lu Ziren is willing to treat her well. This is not a way for her to train her husband.

Xia Yingying moved her lips, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

"My lady is unwilling to share." When the woman saw Xia Yingying hesitated, she thought that Xia Yingying wanted to hide her incompetence.

Seeing that the lady had misunderstood, Xia Yingying immediately explained, "That's not the case. My husband and I have been married for a short time, but we are still in the stage of getting along, so it is inevitable that our relationship has improved. But if the lady wants to live a good life with your husband, why not have a frank talk and see what can be discussed between us."

Seeing that the woman was young, Xia Yingying thought that there must be problems in the relationship between the couple, so she was desperate and came to her for advice. However, she was also a newbie and knew nothing at all.

In Xia Yingying's opinion, problems easily arise between people because of untimely communication, or because everyone keeps problems in their hearts and does not speak them out to each other, resulting in poor communication.

Xia Yingying then expressed her thoughts, and the woman felt that what Xia Yingying said made sense. "Madam, you are right. Thank you for clearing up my doubts."

Lu Ziren went to sign up, and soon he was waiting by the side with a bow.

"So, which lamp do you like?" Lu Ziren walked to Xia Yingying and asked her seriously.

Xia Yingying was chatting with that lady just now and didn't pay attention.

And now that Lu Ziren asked, Xia Yingying looked up at the prizes on the stands.

The third prize is a book, the second prize is a jade pendant worth 50 taels of silver, and the first prize is a beautifully crafted lantern worth 100 taels of silver.

"Can I have that kind of lantern?" Xia Yingying didn't know why, but when she saw the lantern, she inexplicably wanted to take it down. This kind of lantern was very exquisitely made, with colorful glass on the outside, which was called colored glaze in that era.

The little girl who was waiting for her brother to win the lantern heard Xia Yingying say this and glared at her fiercely.

"The lantern you mentioned is today's big reward. Many people have gone up, but none of them managed to shoot down the copper coin. You still want your husband to go. Aren't you asking for trouble? It's bad enough that you're asking for too much as a woman, but you're also dragging these men down with you. Isn't this a complete disgrace to us women?"

The girl was arrogant and looked down on others as soon as she spoke, which was very annoying.

Xia Yingying listened to the woman's vicious words, every word revealing her contempt for her. Xia Yingying was speechless.

Xia Yingying didn't want to pay attention to such an unreasonable woman.

But Xia Yingying ignored her, which only emboldened her. The girl started to nag again, "You toad want to eat swan meat, but you don't know how much you are worth. That lantern is a palace lantern. My brother is from the Jinyiwei, and he is very skilled. He couldn't shoot it. You are just a commoner, but you are so arrogant. Are you just trying to show off your wealth?"

Xia Yingying's ears were buzzing due to the girl's sharp voice.

"Tsk tsk tsk, why is there a mosquito buzzing here? It's giving me a headache." Xia Yingying shook her hand casually.

Some people are not as skilled as others and cannot shoot down, and they also think that others cannot shoot down either. They really look down on others. Oh, it’s not a dog, it’s not even a dog, it’s a mosquito, and I can kill it with just a casual slap. "Xia Yingying couldn’t help but talk to herself in the air.

The girl's face turned red and blue when she heard this.

"You...you are so insolent! My brother is the commander of the Jinyiwei, and you, a mere commoner, dare to point fingers at him. Aren't you afraid of my brother?" The girl thought that Xia Yingying would just give in. Her brother's reputation was such that it made children cry. She didn't believe that this ignorant woman in front of her would be so ignorant.

Xia Yingying looked at the young girl and couldn't help but sneer. She hated people who took advantage of their family connections to bully others the most.

"Even if your brother is a commander, he can't break the law knowingly. Daliang is not your brother's home. Your brother can do whatever he wants." Xia Yingying rolled her eyes at the girl with an aggressive tone.

But he couldn't find any excuse to give up, and at this time the unnatural feeling had already subsided.

The girl stared at Lu Responsibility with an infatuated look on her face, and Xia Yingying couldn't help but rolled her eyes several times.

"You, you...I'm going to ask my brother to deal with you!" The girl was so retorted by Xia Yingying that she had no strength to talk back, and then she asked the maid beside her to beat Xia Yingying.

The maidservant was used to such things as she was around the girl, and looked at Xia Yingying with some sympathy.

The maid stepped forward and came to Xia Yingying's side, ready to hit her. Xia Yingying was already prepared, and was going to kick the maid in the stomach. She would not tolerate these weirdos.

However, before the maid could do anything, Lu Ziren came over aggressively and pulled the maid directly. The maid was thrown to the side of the road like a rag.

The girl was stunned for a moment. Her brother was still following Lu Ziren, and his attitude was very respectful.

"Brother..." the girl stammered.

The girl is Xu Yao, the younger sister of Xu Jiaqiang, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Both of their parents have passed away, and as Xu Jiaqiang only has one sister, he dotes on her very much, so she has developed a spoiled character. But Xu Yao becomes extremely timid when she sees Xu Jiaqiang.

"Do you want to challenge me again? I'm always here for you." Lu Ziren said in a cold tone.

When Xu Yao saw Xu Jiaqiang, she felt like she had seen a savior.

"Brother, look at this barbaric civilian, he actually treated me like this, you must deal with these two country bumpkins."

Xu Yao said it as a matter of course, and Xia Yingying was speechless.

"Yaoyao, shut up! General, my sister is young and naive. Please don't argue with her. I will teach her a lesson."

Xu Jiaqiang spoke to Lu Ziren respectfully.

When Xu Yao heard Xu Jiaqiang addressing Lu Ziren, her eyes widened instantly. General... Is this a general?

It's over. I've offended someone I shouldn't have offended...

Xu Yao's face turned pale instantly, her legs went limp immediately, and she knelt down towards Xia Yingying.

"General... I didn't recognize you, Madam, and offended you. I hope you will forgive me."

Lu Ziren looked at Xia Yingying and handed the decision to her.

Xia Yingying nodded, looked at Xu Yao and said, "I guess you have done this kind of thing before. You should be punished, but how do you plan to make amends?"

Xia Yingying looked at Xu Yao, speechless. Was the apology just lip service? Wasn't she so arrogant and magical just now? How come she has become a sick cat now?

"My little girl, I am willing to go to the Taoist temple to practice asceticism and not leave the temple to pray for the lady and the general."

Everything her brother Xu Jiaqiang has is earned through hard work, and she doesn't want her brother to lose all his hard work for her.

Xu Yao is just spoiled, she is not a bad person.

The quiet meditation in a Taoist temple, with green lamps and ancient Buddhas as companions for a lifetime, can make Lu Ziren calm down.

"This is all my daughter's fault. General, please don't blame it on my brother."

Xu Yao had heard of Lu Ziren's reputation. He was a god of war and general, and also very impartial. All this was her fault, and she just had to bear it.

Xu Jiaqiang certainly doesn't want his sister to be accompanied by a secluded mind for the rest of her life. She is still so young and has plenty of time to spare.

"General, Madam, please consider my young age. What I just said was all nonsense. I will let her practice in the Taoist temple for three years to let her calm down and discipline her."

Xia Yingying couldn't help but frowned as she listened to what the two said.

Although Daliang is open, Xia Yingying clearly understands what the ancient Buddha means. Although this little girl is domineering, there is no need to ruin her life.
