Lucky men are the last to have children, and fertile women are the last to have children

Chapter 505: The Delicate and Soft Sister-in-law VS the Black-hearted Brother-in-law Who Was Borrowed for Seed 55
Half a month later, the carriage finally arrived in Fengqi County.

Fengqi County is still prosperous and bustling, with people coming and going in the streets and alleys, and the voices of vendors hawking their wares can be heard one after another.

There are only a lot fewer students on the streets. I guess they have returned home one after another, and not many are left in Fengqi County.

Chen Mufeng paid the taxi fare, walked through the streets and alleys, and headed straight for the Osmanthus Courtyard in the East City residential area.

Passing by Jinxiu Pavilion, he saw it was a jewelry store. He had an idea and thought that Yao'er didn't seem to have a decent piece of jewelry yet, so he walked in.

The shop is full of jewels and a wide variety of jewelry.

The shop assistant saw a customer coming and hurried over to greet him with a big smile on his face: "Sir, please come this way. Do you want to choose some jewelry? We have all kinds of styles here. I guarantee you will be satisfied."

Chen Mufeng nodded slightly, his eyes looked around, and finally fell on an exquisite jade hairpin.

There are a few pink peach blossoms carved on the top of the hairpin, clustered together, and below the peach blossoms are a few round white pearls with a warm color, as if you can smell the fragrance of peach blossoms.

He was moved and thought that Yao'er would look extremely beautiful if she wore this peach blossom hairpin, and it would suit her very well.

Chen Mufeng was more and more satisfied as he looked at it, so he said to the shop assistant, "Please take out this jade hairpin and let me have a look."

The shop assistant smiled and quickly responded, "Okay, sir, please wait a moment."

As he spoke, he carefully took the jade hairpin off the display stand and handed it to Chen Mufeng.

Chen Mufeng gently took the jade hairpin and looked at it carefully in his hand.

The jade hairpin feels soft to the touch, and the carved peach blossoms are lifelike, with the texture of the petals clearly visible. The pearls are also plump and exude a soft luster, which complements the peach blossoms and adds a bit of elegance.

Seeing this, the shop assistant smiled and introduced, "Sir, you have a good eye. This jade hairpin is carved from the finest Hetian jade with exquisite craftsmanship. The pearls are also carefully selected. When matched together, it looks beautiful and auspicious. Sir, are you buying this for your wife? When your wife wears this hairpin, she will definitely be as beautiful as a fairy."

Chen Mufeng glanced at the shop assistant. He knew that he was exaggerating, but he really liked it, so he asked, "How much is this jade hairpin?"

When the shop assistant heard this, he smiled again, "Sir, this jade hairpin was originally priced at 55 taels, but I see that you really like it and it's your first time here. How about this, I'll charge you taels, as a discount for new customers."

After hearing this, Chen Mufeng thought about it in his mind. Although the price was not low, he felt it was worth it when he thought that it could make Yao'er happy.

He took out the silver note, paid the money, took the wrapped jade hairpin, and put it carefully in his arms.

Then left Jinxiu Pavilion.

He walked through the busy streets and finally arrived at the Osmanthus Courtyard in the East City residential area.

He knocked on the doorknob gently, his heart beating faster, his mind filled with Yao'er's surprised expression when she saw him and the gift.

Soon, the voice of Mrs. Wang came from the yard: "Who is it?"

Chen Mufeng stood at the gate of the courtyard and waited for a moment. The door creaked open, revealing the smiling face of Mrs. Wang.

"Oh, Master Chen, you're back. Miss Yu has been missing you these days."

As Mrs. Wang spoke, she let someone in.

Glancing at his luggage, she reached out to help him take it in.

Chen Mufeng waved his hand and said no, and moved the luggage into the yard by himself. He looked around and didn't see anyone, so he became anxious and asked Mrs. Wang: "Aunt Wang, is Yao'er okay these days? How is the baby in your belly?"

"She's fine. Miss Yu has been doing well these days. Nothing's wrong. It's just that pregnant women sleep a lot. She's taking a nap in the room right now. It's been a while. I think she'll wake up soon."

Mrs. Wang replied as she closed the gate.

After hearing what Wang Po said, Chen Mufeng's worries were slightly relieved. He put down his luggage and walked towards Yu Yao's room.

I gently pushed open the door and saw the person lying on the bed, sleeping peacefully. Her belly was obviously bulging. Calculating the time, it had been four and a half months.

Because she was pregnant with twins, she looked like she was five or six months pregnant, with a very round belly.

He tiptoed to the bedside, staring at her sleeping face, his heart filled with tenderness.

These days, my mind is full of her, wondering what she is doing, whether she has eaten well, whether she has slept well, or whether she has discovered anything else.

I was also very worried about the baby in her belly and was extremely worried.

Now that I see people, I feel at ease.

I originally planned to stay at home for two months, but I came back in less than a month and a half.

Quanshui Village is far away from Fengqi County. It would take at least half a month for a horse-drawn carriage to travel day and night.

The round trip takes a whole month.

In fact, he only stayed in his hometown for about ten days. As soon as he finished the chores at home, he couldn't wait to rush back.

It’s just because the feeling of worrying day and night is too torturous.

His eyebrows were gentle, and the corners of his mouth were hooked with an intoxicating smile. He reached out and gently stroked her face. Looking at those tempting red lips, his heart moved, and he unconsciously placed a light kiss on her.

Yu Yao seemed to sense something and moved slightly in her sleep, frowned slightly, and then slowly opened her eyes.

When she saw Chen Mufeng standing beside the bed, her eyes flashed with surprise.

"You're back?"

She threw back the covers and tried to get up.

Chen Mufeng hurried over to support her, "Well, I'm back."

As he spoke, he squatted down and put on her shoes and socks. After that, he did not forget to take the coat beside her and put it on her.

"I thought it would take you another half a month, but you came back faster than I expected."

Yu Yao said happily, opened her arms, turned around, put her coat on, and let him serve her with a clear conscience.

Chen Mufeng looked at her lovingly, buttoned her shirt gently, and said softly, "I was worried about you. I came here as soon as I finished my family affairs."

As he spoke, he took out the peach blossom hairpin from his bosom and handed it to her, "Look, what gift did I bring you?"

Yu Yao reached out to take it, and looked at it carefully. She saw that it was a peach blossom hairpin. There were three pink peach blossoms clustered together, beautiful and exquisite.

She had too many different kinds of jewelry and hairpins, no matter whether they were luxurious or ordinary, she had them all and they were piled up in the space.

There are even several peach blossom hairpins of similar style to the one in her hand, all given by the male protagonists from various planes.

I didn’t expect Chen Mufeng also gave me one like this.

Although it looked very ordinary in his own eyes, for a poor scholar like Chen Mufeng, it must have cost a lot of money.

Although I felt a little sorry for the money, I was still very happy in my heart.

She showed a surprised look on her face and said exaggeratedly: "Oh, what a beautiful peach blossom hairpin, did you buy it specially for me?"

"nature."

Chen Mufeng smiled, "When I saw it, I thought it was very suitable for you. You will look very beautiful wearing it."

As he spoke, he reached out and took the peach blossom hairpin from her hand, and said softly, "Yao'er, let me put it on for you."

Yu Yao nodded slightly and looked at him with a smile.

Chen Mufeng carefully inserted the peach blossom hairpin into her hair bun, his movements gentle and focused.

Wear the hairpin properly.

He took a step back and admired his masterpiece, his eyes flashing with satisfaction and affection.

"Yao'er, you are so beautiful."

Chen Mufeng suddenly exclaimed in praise.

What he said was true. Yao'er didn't look like a peasant woman from the countryside at all. Instead, she exuded a gentle and beautiful temperament. She was so moving, like a fairy who had walked out of a painting.

Yu Yao blushed when she heard his praise and said angrily, "You just say sweet words to make me happy. I'm not as good as you say."

Although she said this, she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes. She gently touched the hairpin on her head and couldn't help asking, "This hairpin is so exquisite, I'm afraid it must have cost a lot of money, right?"

Chen Mufeng's expression froze, and he didn't dare to say that he spent 50 taels, for fear that Yao'er would think he was spending money recklessly or would feel sorry for the money and refuse to take it.

He coughed lightly, "It's not much, as long as Yaoer likes it."

Yu Yao glanced at him and did not ask how much the silver was. The amount was not important. What was important was the thought behind it.

The two talked for a while, and then she pushed Chen Mufeng to wash up.

We have been traveling for half a month and are exhausted. If we don't wash, we will feel uncomfortable.

As night falls, the bright moonlight shines on the osmanthus courtyard, making it peaceful and quiet.

After dinner, the two washed up, blew out the candles, and lay on the bed, hugging each other and falling asleep.

Chen Mufeng gently held her in his arms, his voice low and affectionate, "Yao'er, it's great to be able to hold you like this."

Looking at her sleeping face, my heart was filled with emotion.

He had never thought that he could hold her in his arms and fall asleep like this.

Looking back on the days in the Chen family, she was the sister-in-law and he was the uncle, and their relationship was bound by insurmountable ethical constraints.

Even if there is already a secret feeling in my heart, I can only bury it deep in my heart and dare not show it at all.

Every time I see her, I call her "Third Sister-in-law" respectfully and politely.

But my eyes couldn't help but follow her secretly, paying attention to her every move.

Today, everything is different.

She separated from her third brother, and she herself had become a juren.

They broke free from the shackles of etiquette and were able to sleep in each other's arms so intimately, feeling each other's warmth and love.

Chen Mufeng hugged her tighter, as if he wanted to convey to her all the suppressed emotions of the past through this tight hug.

Yu Yao moved slightly in his arms, but did not wake up and soon fell asleep.

Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, he lowered his head and gently kissed her between the eyebrows, then hugged her tightly while avoiding touching her stomach, and soon fell asleep as well.

The next morning, sunlight shone into the house through the gaps in the window, waking the two from their sleep.

After breakfast, Chen Mufeng went out, saying that he wanted to buy some things.

Yu Yao didn't care and let him go out.

But when he came back, he brought back a bunch of things.

A set of bright red wedding dresses for men and women, a phoenix crown, a pair of red candles with dragons and phoenixes, a pile of red silk, a stack of red paper, and some other miscellaneous things filled up half of the room. I don't know how much money it cost.

She was slightly startled, but soon realized that this man wanted to marry her. She curled her lips slightly, feeling sweet in her heart.

Mrs. Wang looked at the room full of wedding supplies, was stunned for a moment, and was puzzled.

Why did Master Chen buy these? Is he going to marry Miss Yu?

Seeing Yu Yao's round belly, he thought that Master Chen should really give the girl a status.

The belly is already so big, and it’s not nice to follow her without any status, and it’s also unfair to her.

It was just hard to say at first.

Now, seeing Master Chen taking the initiative to arrange the wedding, I am very happy.

Then he walked over with a smile, "Mr. Chen, are you planning to get married with Miss Yu here?"

Chen Mufeng looked at Mrs. Wang, smiled faintly and nodded, "Aunt Wang, that's right. Yao'er and I are in love, and now that she is pregnant, I want to marry her in this courtyard today, give her a status, and let her accompany me for the rest of her life."

At this point, he looked at Yu Yao with a look of deep affection and guilt, "Yao'er, although the ceremony is a little simple, without a full house of guests and many red tape, please believe that I will definitely compensate you with a grand wedding in the future."

Yu Yao naturally wouldn't care about these things, and she also knew the situation of the two. It was already very good that Chen Mufeng could do this.

"I don't care about those things. Being with you is the best thing."

She said with a chuckle.

He picked up the stack of red paper on the table and took out a pair of scissors from the cabinet.

Then he sat on the couch, obviously wanting to cut the word "happiness".

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang was so frightened that she quickly pulled the scissors away from her hand, muttering, "Oh, girl, what are you doing? Pregnant women are most taboo to use scissors, let me cut these wedding characters."

Yu Yao was stunned for a moment. She didn't mind these things, but she didn't insist on cutting them. She just smiled and said, "Aunt Wang, I forgot about this. Thank you for your hard work."

Mrs. Wang smiled and waved her hands, "It's not hard, it's not hard. This is a happy event. I am very happy about it."

After saying that, he sat on the stone bench, picked up the red paper and scissors, and started cutting skillfully.

Her movements were very smooth, and soon, full-bodied and festive "囍" characters appeared before her eyes.
Chen Mufeng didn't know about these taboos, but he thought that Aunt Wang was an experienced person and what she said must be right.

Seeing that Yaoer didn't cut it again, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he got busy.

The courtyard was swept clean and tidy, with big red wedding characters pasted on the doors and windows, red lanterns hung under the eaves, and red silk tied into beautiful flowers hanging all over the courtyard.

The room is also decorated in a warm and festive atmosphere. A pair of red candles with dragon and phoenix patterns are burning quietly, and longans, peanuts, red dates and pomegranates are placed on the table.

It means having a son early.

There are also wedding wine and wine glasses prepared.

After finishing all this, Mrs. Wang began to clean Yu Yao's face and dress her up.

The bright red wedding dress looked festive and beautiful, with only a slight bulge on her belly.

The wedding dress was purchased temporarily at a ready-made clothing store.

Because she was pregnant, Chen Mufeng deliberately bought her something bigger so that she could wear it, and it actually fit her now.

Yu Yao sat in front of the mirror and let Wang Po do her makeup.

Mrs. Wang was very skilled. She combed her hair carefully and put it into an exquisite bun, then placed the phoenix crown firmly on her head.

The pearls and jade on the phoenix crown sparkled brightly under the candlelight, making Yu Yao look even more beautiful and charming.

Chen Mufeng was not idle either. He paced back and forth in the yard, checking whether everything was arranged properly.

In order to make the wedding lively, he invited neighbors and servants from Li Mingxuan's villa.

Originally, he wanted to invite Lu Wenyuan, the instructor of Fengqi County School, the prefect, the governor and other important figures as well, but he thought it would be difficult to explain.

Another thing was that I wasn’t sure whether they would come, so after some hesitation, I decided not to invite them.

But there were quite a few people coming.

For this purpose, he specially booked several tables for banquet at Yunkelai Restaurant.

Although there were no blessings from family, the place was still filled with guests and friends.

He also specially hired four people to carry the sedan chair and a ceremonial guard, and they marched around Fengqi County Street with music and dance.

All the necessary procedures and etiquette were followed and it was quite lively.

Mrs. Wang was the host of the wedding. Her face was full of wrinkles from smiling, and she looked very happy.

Surrounded by the crowd, the sedan chair slowly stopped in front of the osmanthus courtyard.

Chen Mufeng, dressed in festive groom's suit, stood tall and straight at the gate, smiling widely to greet them.

Neighbors gathered around, laughing and joking, praising the newlyweds for being such a good match.

Although it was strange that the newlyweds had no parents or relatives, they did not think too much about it and just thought that they were two poor children, without a father or a mother, who came together and became a couple.

The wedding was celebrated with great enthusiasm and joy.

Yu Yao was in the sedan chair, looking at the lively scene outside through the gap in the curtain, her heart filled with joy.

She gently stroked her bulging belly, feeling very happy as she thought about officially becoming husband and wife with Chen Mufeng.

This plane mission is a bit strange. Given the original owner's identity, it is very difficult to marry Chen Mufeng legitimately.

Naturally, she would not have any dissatisfaction with what she saw.

Chen Mufeng has tried his best to give himself the best.

He walked forward with a smile, gently lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and gently reached out to help Yu Yao out.

She wore a phoenix crown and a bright red wedding dress, and had a graceful figure. Even though she was pregnant, she was still breathtakingly beautiful.

When everyone saw her, they couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, saying how beautiful the bride was and how lucky Mr. Chen was.

Chen Mufeng took her hand and slowly walked into the yard.

The yard had already been decorated like a festive palace, with fluttering red silk, red lanterns hanging high, and big red "囍" characters particularly eye-catching.

Mrs. Wang stood in the middle of the courtyard, cleared her throat, and shouted loudly: "The auspicious time has arrived, the newlyweds are in their positions, and the ceremony of worshipping in the hall has begun."

Under the gaze of everyone, the two of them slowly stood on the red carpet that had been laid out in the middle of the yard, facing each other.

"Worship heaven and earth."

Mrs. Wang shouted with full energy.

Chen Mufeng and Yu Yao turned around and bowed deeply to the heaven and earth.

"Two thanks to the high hall."

As their parents were not present, the two men smiled at each other, then bowed respectfully towards the empty seat at the top.

"Husband and wife bow to each other."

The two men faced each other and bowed deeply.

"The ceremony is over. Send him to the cave."

Mrs. Wang shouted loudly, her face full of joy.

Afterwards, the newlyweds were sent into the cave amid the crowd’s embrace and laughter.

In the room, a pair of red candles with dragon and phoenix patterns burned quietly, implying a prosperous and happy future for the two.

Chen Mufeng gently lifted Yu Yao's red veil, revealing her beautiful face.

The two looked at each other and smiled, their faces full of smiles.

"Yao'er, you are finally my wife."

Chen Mufeng looked doting and said in a low voice with a smile.

He reached out for the prepared wedding wine, handed her one glass, and took the other glass himself.

The two of them crossed their arms, looked at each other with deep affection, and slowly drank the wedding wine.

After drinking the wedding wine, Chen Mufeng put the glass aside and gently pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed, keeping his hands tightly clenched as if he was afraid that if he let go, all the beautiful things in front of him would vanish into thin air.

Yu Yao looked at him happily, "I never thought that I could marry you legitimately. I am very happy, really."

"I am also very happy."

Chen Mufeng smiled, his eyes gentle and doting, "Yao'er, I never dared to hope for today, but now you are truly by my side and have become my wife, I am filled with joy."

She didn't say anything, just smiled at him.

I wonder what Chen Xiuyuan’s expression would be if he knew that I was marrying Chen Mufeng. He would probably be very sad.

Chen Mufeng noticed that she seemed to be dazed for a moment, and asked softly: "Yao'er, what are you thinking about? Are you tired?"

She came back to her senses and shook her head gently, "Nothing, I just suddenly felt a little emotional."

She didn't want to mention Chen Xiuyuan on her wedding day, for fear of spoiling his fun.

Just as Chen Mufeng was about to say something, Mrs. Wang brought a plate of half-cooked dumplings and handed it to Chen Mufeng with a smile, "Groom, come and feed the dumplings to the bride."

He knew that the wedding ceremony was not over yet, so he took the plate with a smile, picked up a dumpling, and carefully fed it to Yu Yao's mouth, and asked with a low smile, "Madam, are you going to have a baby?"

Yu Yao chewed the dumplings gently, her face flushed, she glanced at him reproachfully, and said vaguely, "Well, it's raw."

After hearing this, Chen Mufeng smiled even more, but he did not ask her to eat more, as eating raw dumplings was bad for the stomach.

A ceremony is enough.

After saying that, he handed the plate of dumplings to Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang stretched out her hand to take it, thinking to herself: Master Chen really loves his wife. Usually the groom will let the bride eat the whole plate of dumplings, implying that eating more means more food.

But looking at Miss Yu's belly, she is already pregnant with twins, so it is indeed not advisable for her to eat more raw dumplings.

She said a few auspicious words, then turned and left, closing the door and leaving the space to the young couple.
