Chapter 817: Face of Longevity
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Wen Lancheng’s marriage was rather special. His wife-to-be had already been sent to him. If they did not get married, it would not be appropriate for them to live under the same roof.
Therefore, they had to get married as soon as possible.
Xie Qiao did not need to get involved in this matter. She was a single lady. She should not attend such an event in the first place.
When Xie Xi heard that they were going to give an expensive gift, she nodded painfully.
July was not suitable for marriage, so Wen Lancheng’s marriage was set for August.
His wife-to-be’s name was Feng Yingying, and she did not know anyone in the capital. Xie Niushan was good to his G.o.dson, so he said that he would take care of Feng Yingying. Of course, he would make Xie Qiao and Feng Yingying good friends to help this young lady pa.s.s time.
He even asked Wen Lancheng to bring Feng Yingying into the residence directly.
Xie Qiao was painting at home, preparing to sell it to make some money.
The money would be of great use.
It was mainly to support her two masters.
After being away from the Water Moon Temple for so long, she estimated that the temple’s funding was running out. She had to save some money for the old man’s retirement. Also, she did not know when her teacher, Li s.h.i.+yan, would arrive in the capital. As the eldest disciple, she had to prepare a generous gift. She could not be outdone by her junior brothers.
After thinking about it, Xie Qiao felt a little sad.
She had made quite a lot of money previously. However, she had saved up for her younger siblings, bought medicine for herself, and used some of it for other things. After spending them on all the miscellaneous things, there was not much left!
Xie Qiao felt a pang of heartache.
“Young Lady, Master said that Young Lady Feng has arrived.” Chun Er could not bear to disturb Xie Qiao’s painting. Seeing that she had been in a daze for a while, she decided to tell her that.
Feng Yingying’s letter had arrived two days earlier. That was why Xie Qiao was waiting at home today.
Wen Lancheng had officially acknowledged her father as his G.o.dfather, so Xie Qiao had to meet her G.o.d-sister-in-law.
Moreover, Xie Qiao herself was quite curious about Feng Yingying and was willing to make more friends.
“Go and invite Master Yu over. Let’s meet Feng Yingying together.” Xie Qiao thought for a moment and thought it would be a little awkward if she was the only one talking to Feng Yingying.
She did not know how to talk about family matters. If she was not careful, she was afraid that the conversation would involve ghouls and physiognomy. It would be terrible if she scared the young lady.
Chun Er was very happy. She loved to see the young lady talking and laughing with other little young ladies. She would look very energetic.
The people in the family already knew Yu Xian’s ident.i.ty. However, she was a martial arts master after all. It was more convenient for her to dress as a man in the residence.
Now that she was invited by Xie Qiao, Yu Xian came out of the courtyard to meet the guest.
When she arrived at the hall and saw Feng Yingying, her eyes lit up.
What a plump young lady, she was so adorable!
Unfortunately, she was also a guest, so it was inappropriate to be overly enthusiastic.
Xie Qiao only took a glance at Feng Yingying, not daring to look too much.
However, even with just a glance, she could tell that this young lady was blessed with good fortune. She had a pair of crescent-shaped eyebrows, and the ends of her eyebrows pointed to the sky. She would bless her husband in the imperial court, and there was peace on her face. Moreover, it was a rare face of longevity.
Feng Yingying was young, only 16 years old. She was slightly plumper than Xie Qiao. Her cheeks blushed, and there was some nervousness in her eyes. However, it could be seen that she was a bold person.
As for Wen Lancheng…
He subconsciously glanced at Xie Qiao.
Then, he quickly s.h.i.+fted his gaze over. “Ms. Ying hasn’t been in the capital for long, and she hasn’t seen anything yet… I’m busy, so I can’t be showing her around. I can only trouble Eldest Sister to take care of her..”
