Xiao Zeyu and Yelu Chun were sitting cross-legged on the brick bed. Yelu Chun especially loved to drink the tea Xiaoying brewed. He drank cup after cup of tea, and after drinking more than half of the pot of tea, he felt that the tea was lovely. After a sip, it was sweet from his mouth to his heart.

Xiao Zeyu saw that Yelu Chun loved to drink tea, so he ordered people to pack the remaining tea leaves for him to take home.

Yelu Chun thanked him, but in his heart, he thought, ‘I don’t love this tea; I love the person who made it.’

Su Qing carried the fish pot in. This was a method that Yelu Chun had never eaten before. He elegantly picked up a piece, and his eyes instantly lit up. He praised Su Qing.

“Not only is sister-in-law’s wine delicious, but the dishes she makes are simply delicious.”

“If you like it, I’ll write down the cooking method for you. I’ll bring some fish back for you later.”

Su Qing wasn’t stingy. If you like it, I’ll write and return the recipe.

“Thank you, sister-in-law. Where are sister-in-law and brother Xiao going to spend the new year?”

Yelu Chun laughed heartily and cupped his fists at Su Qing as he sat on the brick bed. The Spring Festival of the Central Plains was in a dozen days. He wanted to know where Su Qing and the others were spending the Spring Festival.

“Jingshi Dao.”

Xiao Zeyu answered on Su Qing’s behalf. His grandfather and father-in-law’s family were all in Jingshi Dao. It was okay if they were to run around, but they had to be together during the New Year.

Yelu Chun was a little disappointed. He originally wanted to come to Mo City during the New Year to join in the fun so that he could meet Xiaoying again. However, Xiao Zeyu and Su Qing wanted to return to Jingshi Dao so he couldn’t help but ask,

“Oh… Then would Xiaoying go back with you?”

‘So you have ulterior motives and are thinking about my sister?’

In the end, when he saw Xiao Zeyu looking at him with such a gaze, Yelu Chun felt unnatural and coughed awkwardly.

“Xiaoying naturally has to go back with us.”

Xiao Zeyu extinguished Yelu Chun’s hopes. ‘We can be good brothers, but you’re not suitable to be my brother-in-law.’

“Is that so? Her body is weak in the cold weather. I have a thousand-year-old ginseng with me. I’ll get someone to send it to her later to nourish her body.” When Yelu Chun heard that Xiaoying was also going to Jingshi Dao, his eyes visibly darkened. However, he immediately began to worry that Xiaoying would not be able to handle the long journey.

“There’s no need. Ginseng is precious. Please leave it to your father. Xiaoying won’t be cold with Su Qing’s body-warming pills.”

Xiao Zeyu rejected him instantly. ‘What if he accepted the ginseng and said it was a betrothal gift?

Yelu Chun looked at Xiao Zeyu like a punching bag. He had no choice; he had to coax his future brother-in-law.

There was no Drunken Overlord, only Spring Sword. Xiao Zeyu and Yelu Chun each drank a jar to their heart’s content.

After eating, Yelu Chun left reluctantly. Before he left, he saw Xiaoying standing in the crowd and looking at him. Her beautiful big eyes were filled with reluctance.

Yelu Chun’s eyes widened. Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu followed his gaze and saw Xiaoying.

“We can’t stop her.”

Su Qing mouthed to Xiao Zeyu that a grown woman should get married. Now that Xiaoying was deeply in love, the more he tried to stop her, the stronger the feelings would be.

“Sigh.”

When Xiao Zeyu thought about how his sister would marry Tartan and how they would never see each other again, he felt very uncomfortable.

Xiao Zeyu disdained using his sister for a marriage alliance. He had always thought sacrificing a woman for a marriage alliance was a spineless surrender. ‘How could a ruler of a generation use a woman to protect the peace of the border? That was a useless method.’

Yelu Chun realized that his longing for Xiaoying didn’t decrease at all. Instead, he started to miss her even before he left. This made him decide after careful consideration. He looked at Xiao Zeyu and said,

“Brother Xiao, I’ve thought about it, and I think you’re right. One lover is enough.”

These words strengthened Yelu Chun’s confidence. He looked at Xiao Zeyu with a burning gaze,

“When I return, I will report to Imperial Father so that he can send officials over to discuss the marriage alliance. I wonder if Brother Xiao will agree?” Xiao Zeyu had already sent him out of the city, but he still couldn’t avoid him. He glared at Yelu Chun but still couldn’t bear to break off his sister’s marriage. However, he still warned Yelu Chun,

“You have to keep your word. If I find out you have other women, it will be time for the two countries to become enemies.”

This was considered as his agreement. Yelu Chun beamed with joy, cupped his fists, and promised in high spirits,

“I, Yelu Chun, swear on Longevity Heaven that I will only marry Xiaoying in this life. If I go against my oath, I will immediately die.”

‘Since he had already made such an oath, what excuse did Xiao Zeyu have to reject him?’ With a dark face, he slapped Yelu Chun’s horse butt,

“Let’s go. It’ll be dark soon.”

The peaceful days passed by quickly. Su Qing reopened the winery. This time, she trained Jiang Yuyan to mix wine. She learned faster than Luan Hong. The taste of the wine was almost the same as Su Qing’s. She could be considered Su Qing’s proud disciple.

Zhong Yong stayed in the Northern Barbarian Kingdom to protect Seventh Master Jiang. When the Xiao Family Army had occupied the Northern Barbarian Kingdom, some people were naturally dissatisfied. There were often Northern Barbarians who came to assassinate Seventh Master Jiang. Fortunately, Zhong Yong was there to protect Seventh Master Jiang.

It was also because of their recent interactions that Seventh Master Jiang especially liked Zhong Yong. He knew his sister’s feelings. Only a fool would not understand what was happening when a big girl went to Zhong Yong’s house all day.

The more they interacted, the more they felt that Zhong Yong was not as stupid as he looked. On the contrary, he was brave, resourceful, and astute.

Men were not afraid of being ugly or fierce. They could give their sister happiness as long as they had the ability.

On New Year’s Day, the Northern Barbarians finally settled down. Jiang Laoqi pulled Zhong Yong to drink in the palace. Xiao Zeyu sent this jar of wine, afraid they could not drink Su Qing’s wine in the Northern Barbarians.

Jiang Laoqi ordered someone to roast a whole lamb and prepare for the new year with everyone. Zhong Yong was eager to return. He had promised Jiang Yuyan that he would invite a matchmaker to propose marriage, but he delayed it because of work. He was afraid that Jiang Yuyan would say that he went back on his word.

When Zhong Yong arrived at the palace, he began to resign. The excuse was to go back to visit his mother’s grave. Of course, this was the most important thing. It was almost the New Year, and he could not let his mother spend it alone.

The second thing was to tell Mother about Jiang Yuyan. Mother had always liked Yuyan and would be happy to know she would become his wife.

As for the engagement with Xiaoying, no one would know since the elders were no longer around. If no one knew, he would pretend that it did not exist.

The third thing was to ask his master to help him go to the Jiang family to propose marriage. After three years of filial piety, he would settle the marriage and marry Yuyan.

When he closed his eyes these past few days, he would see Jiang Yuyan being held hostage by the Northern Barbarian soldiers. She would shout for Brother Zhong to save her. He would be covered in cold sweat whenever he woke from his nightmare. He was in the Northern Barbarian, but his heart had already returned to Mo City.

Jiang Laoqi warmly invited Zhong Yong to the table to eat. He pointed at the bowl of noodles on the table and said to Zhong Yong with a smile,

Seventh Master Jiang lived in the palace of the former Northern Barbarian Emperor and used the palace utensils. They were all made of gold and were very luxurious. Seventh Master Jiang pointed at the small golden bowl in front of Zhong Yong and said with a smile,

“Zhong Yong, come and try this dough ball.”

Zhong Yong’s eyes lit up when he saw the bowl of noodles. He stood up immediately and looked around for familiar figures..
