Sick Man Turns Out to be a General

0On the seventh day of the third month, Xu Yanlin and Zhao Wenrui married.    

    

As the only couple in the family, Zhao Wenrui was doted on by many parties. Not only his parents, but a few of his elder brothers were also under his control, and even a few of his sister-in-law had treated him like their own brother. Regarding this wedding, the Zhao Family members were actually not too happy, as Xu Yanlin had already been labeled as a "scum" in their hearts.    

    

Mother Zhao stared at her son with reddened eyes. Her precious son was going to be married off today. Just thinking about it made her feel like someone was using a knife to cut her flesh.    

    

Zhao Wenrui saw that his mother was hurt and comforted her, "Mother, don't worry. Zhong Ping will treat me well.    

    

"If he was a good person, he would have dragged things out until now to marry you." His two sons, Old Zhao and his wife, had been married since he was a child. After returning to the capital to be conferred the title of general, he had decided to send his two sons to school, but at that time, his two eldest sons, twenty years old, had already gotten married. His youngest son was not interested in studying, so he had barely been able to read for two years.    

    

His son was still a little girl, making Old Master Zhao very depressed. He had placed his hopes on his grandson, but who would have thought that his eldest son's four sons, the two sons and one daughter, also loved to dance and fight. Old Master Zhao's heart ached, having taken a fancy to the Xu family, which was very righteous, and had made an engagement with the Xu family. Old Master Zhao initially thought that he would marry a girl from the Xu family, but the Xu family did not have a girl that was similar in age to their grandson, and the only suitable age was Xu Yanlin and Xu Yanlin.    

    

Thinking about Xu Yanlin, Mother Zhao really didn't want this son-in-law anymore.    

    

Seeing that her mother was about to get angry again, Zhao Wenrui immediately pulled on her hand and said: "Mother, I'm getting married today, if you speak like that about your future son-in-law, it will make people laugh."    

    

"Look at you, before you get married, you're already protecting him, what's so good about Xu Yanlin …" Hey, okay, okay, you like it yourself... "Auntie, I'm here to make up some powder. There's no harm in putting on some rouge and applying it a little thicker. Today is a day of celebration, so it's better to be happy here."    

    

"Mother, it's better if you do it naturally. There's no need …"    

    

"What do you know? Today is your wedding day. How can you not be happy?" Mother Zhao interrupted him, "You can do whatever you want normally. Today, you have to do as I say. "Dear, hurry up. The bridal sedan will arrive in a while."    

    

A young wife walked over, looked at the makeup on the new teacher's face, and opened the rouge box. First, she put on some makeup and wore some makeup, and then some rouge.    

    

Shen Jingli came in with a embroidered box. Looking at Zhao Wenrui's magnificent appearance, both of his eyes stared wide open.    

    

"Congratulations." He extended his hand and handed the embroidered box over.    

    

"Thank you." Opening it, there were land deeds and house deeds inside, a total of 12, after calculating, there were actually 30 thousand silvers notes, after a while, there were eight shops and six rooms, causing Zhao Wenrui to be unable to speak, he stared at Shen Jingli with wide eyes.    

    

"Zhongping gave it to you. You take it well. From now on, you are his manager wife."    

    

The Mrs Xu was greedy, she had her eyes set on the Xu Family's property, she had even wanted to give the brothers a wife and concubine. Xu Dalang had rejected him with the excuse that the two of them were husband and wife, and Xu Yanlin could not be bothered to go through with it, hence he automatically requested to split the family property. With the Old Granny's love for her grandson, she gave half of her private house to her grandson, while the Mrs Xu took care of her son, adding a few more rooms for his son.    

    

"He's already given the betrothal gift." Was he handing over his entire family to him?    

    

"Since he gave it to you, just take it. In the future, it will belong to you anyway." He was willing to give his family property to his wife to barely give Xu Yanlin some points.    

    

Mother Zhao was satisfied. Xu Yanlin did this because he valued his son, which also meant that his son would not suffer any grievances after marrying into the Xu Family. She could rest assured.    

    

"Mom, it's time for little brother to get on the bridal sedan." Zhao Wenxuan shouted from outside.    

    

"Yes, I'm coming."    

    

Zhao Wenrui looked at his mother and couldn't help but blush. Before, he had been looking forward to getting married year after year, but now, he was really unwilling to part with her.    

    

"Wen Rui, come, be careful. Big brother will carry you onto the bridal sedan." Their family's little brother had actually come to this day.    

    

Zhao Wenxuan was extremely emotional in his heart. He thought to himself that should he find Xu Yanlin and build up a relationship with him?    

    

"Alright." She was really going to get married. It felt so unreal.    

    

His family's temper was unrestrained, and his little brother, who acted whenever he saw someone displeased, was as obedient as another person today. He felt that there was something that had slipped out of his hand without him knowing.    

    

The gong sounded in the sky, and the palanquin majestically circled the capital city. The red and flamboyant palanquin steadily walked along the bluestone path, and the servants following behind it sprinkled sweets and money along the road. Copper coins fell on the bluestone floor, and clanking sounds could be heard.    

    

Who said Zhao Wenrui was not to be taken care of by the Xu family? Who said that Xu Yanlin did not like Zhao Wenrui?    

    

The weather was clear and clear. The common folk of the capital were all enthusiastically talking about this wedding.    

    

"I didn't expect that Young Master Zhao would still marry into the Xu Family. After waiting for so many years, it can be considered as guarding the Yun Family to see Yue Ming."    

    

"That's right. Just look at that seventy-two year old dowry. Even an emperor might not be able to have such grandeur when he marries his daughter …"    

    

"I never thought that even with Zhao Wenrui's notoriety, he could still get married like a husband …"    

    

"It's hard to say if you don't like him. I heard that the second young master of the Xu Family doesn't like him and will marry him. Perhaps it's just a compensation mentality …"    

    

"..."    

    

Suddenly, the groom at the very front suddenly turned his horse around and rode towards the bridal sedan. Amidst the surprised cries of the crowd, he dismounted from his big horse, lifted the sedan curtain, and went inside to carry the bridal veil over his head.    

    

[What is he trying to do?    

    

Zhao Wenrui was shocked, he did not know what Xu Yanlin wanted to do. Did he suddenly regret that he didn't want to marry him? He held the box tightly, feeling an indescribable anxiety in his heart.    

    

"Nervous?"    

    

"What do you want?" Hearing the low laughter near his ear, Zhao Wenrui felt his heart thumping hard, no one could tell if he was nervous or excited.    

    

"What do you think?" He was still smiling.    

    

Zhao Wenrui was a little speechless, how could he guess what was on his mind? If he could guess, he wouldn't have to wait so many years.    

    

He took the man and mounted him on the horse. He sat in front of him and they snuggled up against each other. The big red horse galloped out of the city. The angry red horse would become another topic of conversation in the capital.    

    

After spurring his horse to gallop for a few kilometers, they arrived at a small mountain slope. Xu Yanlin pointed at the horse farm below with his long arm, and said: "Chu Qing, did you see that? I am giving you that horse farm as a betrothal gift.    

    

"Horse-farm?" In that instant, he was stunned by these words. He was unable to recover from his shock for a long time.    

    

His grandfather, father, and brothers had all killed enemies on the battlefield. When he was young, he had stayed in the northern plains for a few years, and had always hoped to run a horse farm in the future. He wanted to cultivate the best horse in the world.    

    

He didn't remember telling him, how could he?    

    

"Do you like it?" This was the wedding gift he had given him.    

    

"Why did you …" He was greatly moved and choked with sobs without words. This man had overstepped his boundaries. Previously, he was unwilling to marry him, but now, he seemed to view him as a precious treasure.    

    

"I will treat you well." He had feelings, but he couldn't explain it, so he could only hope that Yue Yang would feel at ease. "The pirates are rampant in the south, maybe after a period of time, Zi An will be sent to the south to suppress the pirates.    

    

In other words, he was going to leave as soon as they were married.

Zhao Wenrui nervously grabbed his hand and said: "I'll go with you."    

    

"Stay in the capital and take care of sister-in-law. When Zi An is outside, he will worry about them the most."    

    

It was indeed the case, but he was still worried. Zhao Wenrui looked at him with hope in his eyes.    

    

"I'll be back, don't worry."    

    

The gentle voice belonged to the Xu Yanlin when he first met his. That year, Xu Yanlin was eleven years old, he was an elegant young man, his zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting were all proficient in his hands. The classic article was written casually, and he treated people politely, but he could not see through the fact that was warm to everyone, so he picked up a stick and ran for a few streets after him.    

    

"We need to hurry back to pay our respects. Otherwise, don't tell me your brothers will try to contact me?" He drew back his neck and felt every bone in his body begin to ache.    

    

Seeing his expression, Zhao Wenrui couldn't help but laugh. His brothers were all coarse men, they didn't really know how to talk, and their way of expressing their feelings was usually through punching. For him, they had tried to contact Xu Yanlin quite a few times these few years.    

    

Xu Yanlin brought Zhao Wenrui back to the wedding procession, and after the procession circled around Vermillion Bird Street, the bridal sedan stopped in front of the Xu Family's gate. Xu Yanlin did not care about etiquette at all as he carried Zhao Wenrui through the brazier.    

    

The guests roared with laughter.    

    

Mrs Xu's relatives were among them, and they said to Mrs Xu in a strange tone: "Everyone says that the Zhao Family's twins are notorious, they do not understand etiquette, and have already annulled the engagement, do not marry back, just watch and see. The entire capital is laughing at our family."    

    

Mrs Xu looked at his sister-in-law who was talking to him and thought it was really funny. If others wanted to make fun of them, it would be a joke for the Xu Family. And what did she mean by that? Wen Rui's reputation was not good, and it was all because of her stupid son. Now that her son had thought it through, it was too late for her to be happy.    

    

It was not good for Mrs Xu to be angry at her son's wedding. She simply ignored her and allowed her to mutter to herself.    

    

Less than half a month after their marriage, Xu Yanlin split up. Feng Guang Guang had already moved into the house that was prepared beforehand, right beside Mu Chen.
