Gan Yuwan nodded and then looked at Yun Huaikang.

Yun Huaikang said, "Lin Qing, Pianpian's dowry has already been prepared at our home. But on your side, has the new house been prepared?"

"Getting married is a big deal; you can't not even have a decent house."

Zhen Linqing quickly replied, "Father-in-law, please rest assured. I've already bought the house."

"It's also a three-courtyard house, located in the most bustling area of ​​South Street."

"The front and back are open, and there is a large crabapple tree in the yard. The environment is quiet and elegant."

"I specifically chose that place, thinking that Pianpian would like it."

Yun Huaikang and Gan Yuwan exchanged a glance and nodded in satisfaction.

Yun Huaikang then asked him, "After all, this is your happy occasion, shouldn't we introduce you to your parents?"

The Ming Prince's Mansion of yesteryear is no more, but the Ming Prince Zhen Daoyuan was awarded the rank of a third-grade general for his military achievements, and is now considered a prominent figure.

He couldn't just ignore his son's wedding.

Zhen Linqing grinned and said, "Don't worry, father-in-law and mother-in-law. My parents have wanted to see you for a long time, but they've been worried about the long and arduous journey you've taken."

"If my parents-in-law can spare the time, I'll arrange to meet them in the next couple of days!"

Yun Huaikang and Gan Yuwan had no objections, so they let Zhen Linqing make the arrangements himself.

Yun Pianpian sat to the side, not saying a word from beginning to end.

As she listened to her parents and Zhen Linqing discussing her marriage, her face turned bright red, and she kept her head down, only revealing her two red ear tips.

After the matter was finished, everyone dispersed.

Zhen Linqing lagged behind, and seeing that no one was around, quietly took Yun Pianpian's hand.

His palms were sweaty, hot and damp.

"Pianpian, in two more months, you will be my wife."

Yun Pianpian didn't break free; her face flushed, she softly hummed in agreement.

Seeing her like this, Zhen Linqing liked her even more.

He quickly shoved a palm-sized wooden box into her hands.

"This is all my possessions right now. Keep it safe."

Yun Pianpian was taken aback, then frowned: "Doesn't marriage require money? If you give it to me now, what will you do yourself?"

Zhen Linqing grinned: "It's nothing, it's nothing."

"As soon as the imperial decree came out, my parents and I prepared everything for the wedding. We were just waiting for you to come."

"Besides, most of that money came from my parents; I didn't spend much of it."

"Besides, my mother said that my money should be entrusted to you for safekeeping. After all, you will be my wife and the matriarch of our Zhen family in the future."

Seeing that she couldn't take it back, Yun Pianpian had no choice but to accept it.

When Zhen Linqing saw that she had accepted it, he was as happy as a fool.

He leaned closer, his voice as soft as a feather, whispering in Yun Pianpian's ear: "Pianpian, it's so good to be able to marry you."

I love you.

I fell in love with you the first time I saw you.

"I'm so excited about marrying you that I can't sleep at night."

"It feels like I'm holding the whole world in my arms!"

Yun Pianpian's face flushed instantly.

She stepped aside and muttered under her breath, "That's enough! We're not even married yet, you lecher!"

After saying that, she hugged the box and ran away.

Zhen Linqing immediately followed after him.

Time flies.

Another half month passed in the blink of an eye, and Yun Shengsheng and the others finally arrived in Hotan Prefecture.

Before the people even reached the city gate, the news had already spread back.

Yan Shijin, Chu Xiao, Yun Huaikang, Gan Yuwan, Yun Pianpian, Zhen Linqing, and a large group of people waited outside the city, staring longingly at the end of the official road.

When they saw Mo Ning driving the carriage, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

When the carriage arrived, Yun Qiaoqiao was the first to jump off, and then she reached out and picked up Wenren Jue.

Wenren Jue blushed: "Actually, Qiaoqiao, I can walk by myself!"

Yun Qiaoqiao pouted: "Stop being so stubborn!"

For the past few days, they have been traveling almost day and night. They dared not enter the city along the way, and slept on the official roads instead.

Yun Qiaoqiao, the pregnant woman, is doing well; she's full of energy and perfectly fine.

On the contrary, Wenren Jue, this grown man, got carsick and vomited so badly that he was dizzy and disoriented.

Yun Shengsheng took his pulse several times and was speechless.

"Fourth sister, I think she might be experiencing some morning sickness."

Yun Qiaoqiao and Wu Xia were both surprised.

Wu Xia asked, "Miss, do you mean that the Fourth Miss's morning sickness has transferred to the Fourth Son-in-law?"

Yun Shengsheng nodded.

"That is indeed possible."

Wenren Jue's face turned pale. He was about to say something when he turned around and vomited again.

Yun Qiaoqiao was speechless.

Then, in the days that followed, it wasn't Wenren Jue taking care of Yun Qiaoqiao; instead, it was the other way around—Yun Qiaoqiao taking care of Wenren Jue.

That's why Yun Qiaoqiao helped Wenren Jue down from the carriage just now, because Wenren Jue was really weak, and she was afraid that he might lose his balance and fall off the carriage again.

Because his face is still pale.

Standing not far away, Yun Huaikang and Gan Yuwan, who were initially very excited, widened their eyes instantly upon seeing their fourth daughter's actions.

The two men stepped forward, somewhat annoyed, about to have a serious talk with Yun Qiaoqiao, but then they froze.

They had only heard of Wenren Jue's name before, but had never seen him in person.

Upon seeing you today, I was speechless.

They had never seen such a handsome man before.

It's unbelievably beautiful.

With her exquisite features and refined, otherworldly beauty, she leaned weakly against Yun Qiaoqiao's chest, like a fairy... no, an immortal, who had stepped out of a painting.

He was clearly travel-worn and weary, with even the corners of his clothes covered in dust, yet he seemed to be radiating light.

Yun Huaikang and Gan Yuwan had prepared a whole host of insults.

But when they actually met the person, they couldn't bring themselves to say those words.

Gan Yuwan's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but mutter softly, "Wow, this person looks like they're made of snow, so ethereal."

She looked at her fourth daughter again. Although she had become much fairer, she was still tall and thin. Standing next to Wenren Jue, she looked like a... female bandit.

Gan Yuwan sighed and muttered, "Why do I feel like my fourth daughter isn't good enough for her..."

Yun Huaikang: "..."

Honey, do you know what you're saying?!

He coughed lightly and whispered, "Qiaoqiao, what are you thinking? Let her go!"

Yun Qiaoqiao pursed her lips, not daring to challenge her father. After helping Wenren Jue to stand up, she quickly let go.

"Hehe, Mom and Dad, we're back!"

Yun Shengsheng also jumped down from the carriage at this moment.

Yan Shijin quickly grabbed her and asked, "Shengsheng, have you been injured on your journey? Or are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

Yun Shengsheng smiled and shook her head: "No, no, I'm fine!"

"Don't you think I've grown a tiny bit taller?"

Zhen Linqing walked over curiously to take a look: "No, it's about the same height as last time!"

Yun Shengsheng: "..."
