"How is that possible?" Yang Xiayun immediately raised her voice to protect her face, "Even if someone doesnât like him, itâs me who doesnât like him, okay? Iâve already heard that the southern border is hot and the sun is harsh. Going there for two months, even a fair face can be sunburned into black charcoal. Heâs been there for a long time. Oh my, I think his face is probably so dark itâs unwatchable."
Luo Linyu nodded in agreement, "Your concern makes sense." Then she propped her chin, speaking matter-of-factly, "When you and my brother are in the bridal chamber, you must light red candles. Otherwise, with his dark face, you wonât be able to see my brotherâs face, and if my silly brother grins showing a mouthful of big white teeth, thatâd be quite creepy."
After she finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the room.
"Why is nobody saying anything?" Luo Linyu asked.
"Oh dear!" Yangyang covered his ears with both hands, pouting, "Auntie, donât you have some decency befitting a lady? What exactly are you talking about here? Itâs completely polluting young masterâs ears."
Yang Chuxia nodded awkwardly, "Linyu, youâre a girl, how can you talk about the bridal chamber so casually?"
But Yang Xiayun found Linyuâs words reasonable, "Tsk tsk, no wonder weâve been hanging out together for so long, we worry about the same things. A face too dark is indeed difficult to find someone, especially at night."
Ms. Wangâs face turned green, whereâs the modesty of these young ladies?
"Mom!" Yangyang fearfully tugged at Yang Chuxia, "These two girls are really scary. I must go tell Uncle that he needs to be cautious when marrying a wife."
"Hey, you brat, donât speak nonsense!"
"Yangyang, come back here."
Yang Chuxia and Yang Xiayunâs voices sounded one after another, but Yangyang was quick, he had already run far away.
"Youâre finished!" Luo Linyu pointed at Yang Xiayun, "My brotherâs going to freak out."
"Haha, just now I didnât say anything, you didnât hear anything." Yang Xiayun awkwardly waved her hands.
Ms. Wang was truly lazy to look at her silly face, turned her head and went out with Yang Chuxia.
After a while, the little rascal Yangyang came back, without speaking, he pulled Yang Xiayun to run outside.
"Yangyang, what do you want to show me?" In the backyard garden, Yangyang continued to pull Yang Xiayun further behind.
"Of course, itâs something good," Yangyang chuckled, "Itâs the wedding gift Iâm giving Aunt."
Yang Xiayun was suspicious, "Why canât you give the gift in the room, but you have to come to the backyard garden?"
"Of course, because itâs easier to do bad things in the backyard," then the little guy realized it was inappropriate, quickly covered his mouth, "Oh no, my gift is hidden in the backyard, it will absolutely surprise Aunt."
"You little brat, are you fooling me?" Yang Xiayun wasnât stupid; hearing him say this, she immediately knew something was up and turned around, "You go see the gift yourself."
Who would have thought that when she turned around, Luo Linhao was standing nearby, showing a mouthful of big white teeth, his invasive gaze tightly fixated on her.
"Ah, Uncle, why are you standing there?"
Seeing this, Yang Xiayun understood everything, thinking about the previous unrestrained conversation with Linyu made her embarrassed for some reason.
"You little brat, dare to betray Aunt, is your skin itching?"
She threatened to tousle Yangyangâs head but Yangyang dodged it.
"Aunt, Uncle asked me to do this and gave me a southern dagger, embedded with many jewels. I can pawn it for a lot of silver," Yangyang chuckled, "Besides, thereâs no loss in betraying you!"
