Immortal Crane pretended to be fierce and said this. Shen Yao pursed his lips and smiled slightly. His eyes were firm and solemn. “Senior, don’t worry. You won’t have the chance.”

Ji Zhao was extremely important to him.

He would hold her in his hands for the rest of his life, protect her gently, and pamper her for the rest of his life.

“In short, you have to remember at all times that I will always support my good disciple! ‘

‘Yeah.”

As the night grew darker, Ji Zhao’s nervousness gradually turned into anticipation.

Fifteen minutes ago, she had already taken a careful bath and had applied a faint layer of fragrant powder on her neck.

Squeak—

The moment the door was pushed open, Ji Zhao clenched her fists nervously and subconsciously looked up.

The helplessness on her face turned into an indescribable charm in Shen Yao’s eyes.

“You… you’re back?” Ji Zhao smiled, her eyes watery and full of affection.

Shen Yao’s gaze had always been as gentle as jade, but at this moment, it was as fierce as a wolf.

He rushed forward and pulled her into his arms with his strong arms. He lowered his head and locked her red lips, forcefully plundering the fragrance that existed between her lips and teeth—

A breeze blew past, and the pair of red candles on the table swayed with a dim yellow light.

Fifteen minutes later, Ji Zhao felt that her brain was completely deprived of oxygen. She did not know when the clothes on her body had been removed. She nervously held Shen Yao’s naked shoulder. Her watery almond-shaped eyes were filled with mist, like a deer that had accidentally entered the forest.

“Shen Yao, do… do you really love me?”

At this moment, Ji Zhao felt that her heart was about to jump out. She thought that she had already made all the necessary preparations, but she did not expect that she would be so nervous at the last moment.

Looking at her biting her lip hard, Shen Yao smiled gently.

“Zhaozhao, in this life, I only wish to have you. I’m glad to have you. I’m grateful to have you.”

‘You…’

“Shh.” Shen Yao suddenly raised his index finger and placed it by her lips. Then, he leaned close to her ear and chuckled. “Zhaozhao, on the night we consummate our marriage, you won’t have the right to refuse.”

“Huh?’

Just as Ji Zhao was at a loss, Shen Yao had already stood up and left.

Only then did she realize that rheir first attempt at consummation had ended in failure.

Ji Zhao silently pulled the blanket over her face.

She couldn’t help but reflect on herself. Was she too useless?

In the dead of the night, Shen Yao went to the ear room again. He took a cold bath for a full fifteen minutes before he managed to suppress the heat three inches below his navel.

He could only blame the moonlight for not being charming enough. It could not compare to Ah Tao’s shy and timid smile

When Shen Yao returned to the room, Ji Zhao was already asleep.

The next day, Zhao Lanhua went to the kitchen early in the morning to prepare breakfast for the family. The fragrant black rice porridge was mixed with spicy and delicious pickled vegetables. Coupled with the especially fragrant beef sesame seed cake, it filled everyone’s stomachs.

“Here’s our plan for today,” Zhao Lanhua said excitedly. “Later, I’ll accompany your father to the village chief’s house to report that our family is going to hold a new wedding for Third Brother and Ah Tao. Eldest Brother will go to the county city to order a batch of good wine. Second Brother, go to the county city to help choose some high-quality furniture!”

“As for Third Brother, accompany Ah Tao to the county city to choose jewelry. However, Ah Tao, you have to come home after noon. The Immortal Crane has instructed that he will bring you to the back mountain in the afternoon to identify herbs and test if you have been studying seriously during this period!’

Ji Zhao, who was eating a sesame seed cake, nodded obediently.

Zhao Lanhua readily took out three silver notes worth fifty taels.

“Mother?” Eldest Brother Shen was stunned. “Didn’t our house catch fire previously? Why do you still have so much money on you?’

“Yeah, Mother? Eldest Brother has discussed it with me. We’re even prepared to fork out some money to help Third Brother’s marriage!’ Second Brother Shen could not help but look at her curiously.

‘Well…” Zhao Lanhua deliberately waved at her two sons. In the end, she lowered her voice and said, “The secrets of heaven can’t be revealed. If you’re done eating, go out get your tasks done quickly!”

Fifteen minutes later, Eldest Brother Shen pulled out the carriage tied to the backyard and waved at his brothers.

“Second Brother, Third Brother, Third Sister-in-law, shall we go to the county city now?”

“Alright!’

In the Shen family’s house, Shen Dashan glanced at Zhao Lanhua, who was grinning from ear to ear. His emotions were also affected by her. “Lanhua, why are you so happy?’

“Of course I’m happy!’ Zhao Lanhua raised her eyebrows smugly as she wiped the table. “Dear, I’m really happy. Our three punks have finally grown up!”

“After so many things, Eldest Brother’s personality has become much calmer.

As for Second Brother, he’s not as dull as before. What’s even happier is that Third Brother is not as cold as before.”

The happiest thing for a parent was to see their children grow up!

“That’s right. I heard it just now. Eldest Brother and Second Brother were preparing to pay for Third Brother’s marriage!’ Shen Dashan said with relief, “As expected of my sons. They’re really sensible! ”

“Alright, don’t flatter yourself!” Zhao Lanhua tugged at his earlobe and said with a smile, “It’s not your work that Eldest and Second Brother could say such things!”

“Then whose credit is it?”

“Of course, it’s the credit of our two daughter-in-laws!” Zhao Lanhua said seriously, “If it weren’t for our daughter-in-laws being sensible, do you think your sons would be any good?”

“Alright, alright. Don’t just stand there. Hurry up and go to the chicken coop to feed the chickens! Aren’t we going to the village chief’s house later?”

“I hope that by next month, our chickens will grow fatter!’

County City, Hongxing Restaurant.

When he heard that Shen Yao and Ji Zhao were preparing to officially get married on the 16th of next month, Second Manager You was stunned at first. After understanding the situation, he naturally beamed with joy.

“I hope that Second Brother You will be able to attend the ceremony! Shen Yao smiled and invited sincerely.

‘Of course!” Second Manager You patted his chest and said, “With our friendship, how could I not show up?’

After some small talk, Second Manager You mentioned something.

“I heard that Dingyuan County is going to open a Wind and Moon Restaurant as well.”

Second Manager You frowned and said with a deep gaze, “I’ve already sent someone to ask around. I heard that the Wind and Moon Restaurant will open opposite our restaurant.”

“But I remember that ever since Official Ji came to Dingyuan County, several brothels have been closed?” Ji Zhao asked curiously. “Doesn’t this Official Ji hate places like that the most? Doesn’t the master behind Wind and Moon Restaurant know this?”

“Perhaps the owner of the Wind and Moon Restaurant knew this and did it on purpose,” Shen Yao lowered his eyes and said in a low voice..
