Chapter 123 Sister-in-law

"As for your eldest brother, he told me about him and Leng Qinghuan this afternoon. Dad used your eldest brother's military merits to ask for mercy from the emperor and pardoned Leng Qinghuan and the people in her village. From now on, they are no longer bandits and can do business openly. The imperial edict will come down in a few days, my dear, daddy has something to discuss with you." Zhu Wenyun rubbed his hands and looked at Zhu Yu with guilt.

Zhu Yu blinked her big, lively eyes and muttered to herself: From childhood to adulthood, Daddy has never treated me badly. What on earth made him so embarrassed? She responded obediently, "Dad, please tell me. I am listening."

Zhu Wenyun took a deep breath, as if to encourage herself, and then slowly said: "My dear, you also know that your elder brother is deeply in love with Leng Qinghuan, and now they can finally be together legitimately. But Leng Qinghuan was once a bandit leader and has a low status. If she wants to marry into our Zhu family, I am afraid it will attract a lot of criticism..."

At this point, Zhu Wenyun paused for a moment, observing Zhu Yu's reaction. Seeing that Zhu Yu did not show any displeasure, he continued, "So Dad wants you to beg for mercy from Prince Jing and let him recognize Leng Qinghuan as his adopted sister. My dear, just mention it to Prince Jing. If he is willing, then he is willing. If not, we will not force it."

Zhu Yu knew her elder brother's feelings for Leng Qinghuan, and also understood her father's considerations. So, she smiled brightly and comforted him, "Dad, I understand your considerations. My elder brother has always been good to me, and I like my elder sister-in-law very much. She also taught me some self-defense skills, and she is my little master, so don't worry, I will do my best to do this."

Zhu Wenyun didn't expect Zhu Yu to be so sensible, and a touch of emotion and relief flashed in his eyes. He stroked Zhu Yu's hair and said with emotion: "My dear, you are really a caring little cotton-padded jacket for your father and your elder brother."

The father and daughter smiled at each other, their tacit understanding and affection for each other were beyond words. "Well, there is one more thing. Your marriage with Prince Jing should be settled. I want to get your eldest brother married before you. But don't worry, Dad has prepared your dowry. I won't let you take a penny less of dowry because of some uncertain factors." Zhu Wenyun's expression was very serious. After all, Zhu Chun was the eldest son and a little old. He had never paid attention to finding a wife before. Zhu Wenyun was afraid that he might... Fortunately, he had an idea now. He would not feel at ease until they got married as soon as possible.

Zhu Yu certainly had no objection: "That's great, I can still help my brother and sister-in-law at home and join in the fun, and my sister-in-law can get a big red envelope, right? I'll ask my sister-in-law to give me a big one then." At this point, Zhu Yu suddenly remembered the gold he had stolen from Leng Qinghuan before. Now that they had finally gotten married, he would give it to his sister-in-law as a gift.

When the emperor got off the sedan chair at the palace gate, Zhu Yu and Zhu Wenyun saw Zhu Chun waiting at the palace gate. He was a gentleman with a pine-like figure. The breeze blew, and his hair fluttered in the wind. His eyes were shining with anticipation. Zhu Yu smiled knowingly. Big brother must be anxious to know whether his business was successful. It was rare for the usually calm and composed big brother to have such a moment. It seemed that big brother really cared about his sister-in-law.

Prince Jing, who was walking in front of Zhu Wenyun and the others, did not go back directly after getting off the sedan chair. He walked straight towards Zhu Wenyun and Zhu Yu and greeted Zhu Wenyun: "Father-in-law, may I take you and A Yu back?"

Zhu Wenyun laughed loudly. This kid, if he wanted to send Ah Yu away, he should just say so directly. He even beat around the bush and brought him along: "Your Highness, you are too polite. My son is already waiting at the palace gate. I can just take the carriage my son brought back. If it is convenient for you, you can just send Ah Yu back."

Prince Jing bowed to Zhu Wenyun again and said, "I will listen to my father-in-law." The gorgeous clothes stuck to his body, making his muscles look tighter, which made Zhu Yu's heart flutter. She shook her head in her heart, trying to shake off the bubbles of infatuation in her mind, and then bowed to Zhu Wenyun at Prince Jing's invitation, waved to Zhu Chun, and followed Prince Jing.

In the carriage, she was about to ask Prince Jing to recognize Leng Qinghuan as his sister.
