Dominate the ancient academy

Chapter 165 The only purpose left is to continue the family line

At first, the mother and daughter seemed to be more gentle than each other. After getting to know each other, she found that their gentleness was real. Unlike the daughters of the boudoir she knew before, who seemed gentle on the surface like the big sister next door and were so considerate, but what happened in the end? Smiling but daggers hidden, sarcastic, domineering and unbridled, two-faced people.

She used to hate people who seemed gentle on the surface the most. They might appear gentle on the surface, but who knows how vicious they are behind the scenes? People who pretend to be gentle are the most annoying. It would be better for them to be arrogant and domineering and show their badness in the open.

After marrying into the Chen family, she first noticed the mother and daughter. She was prepared to go to war with them, but after getting along with them, she found that her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were gentle and kind to her. They didn't seem to be playing any tricks on her. If you were good to them, they would return the favor. They were consistent in their words and deeds, and it was comfortable to get along with them.

After getting to know the personalities of the mother and daughter, Chen's sister-in-law became close to her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, especially the younger sister, who had gentle and dexterous hands. She could embroider handkerchiefs, make sachets and clothes for her, and she would chat with her about makeup and clothing matching, which really made her feel the joy of having sisters.

Later, when he had his own fat son, his aunt took good care of him. The clothes on his son were all sewn by his aunt stitch by stitch. The embroidery was so exquisite that even his mother didn't have the patience. But his aunt made several pieces for the fat boy.

She envied her fat son for having such a good aunt.

Now, in order to let her relax, she even wrote a letter personally to call her father-in-law back. This level of thoughtfulness is beyond the reach of her husband.

To put it bluntly, in her heart, her husband now only serves as a carrier of the family line, which is nothing compared to her sister-in-law.

With her sister-in-law here, she felt that she made the right decision to marry into the Chen family.

"Sister-in-law, Zhirou doesn't want to get married?" Chen Zhirou said shyly.

"It would be better if you don't get married. Your sister-in-law will support you for the rest of your life. It's a pity that girls should get married when they grow up." Chen's sister-in-law touched Chen Zhi's soft and smooth face with regret. If her sister-in-law didn't get married, she was really willing to support her sister-in-law for the rest of her life.

Chen Zhirou blushed and said angrily: "Sister-in-law......."

"Okay, okay, sister-in-law, I won't say anything more..."

Yunguang Temple was not far from Kyoto, and the carriage soon reached the foot of the mountain. The aunt and sister-in-law got off the carriage with their veils on, and under the protection of their maids and servants, they climbed up the mountain in a mighty procession.

"This is Miss Chen." Shu Tingfei said, pointing at the group of people who started climbing the mountain.

They didn't arrive for long, as they were worried that the man would attack Miss Chen at the foot of the mountain, so they didn't go up the mountain and waited at the foot of the mountain. Fortunately, there was a small teahouse nearby, so they wouldn't attract attention if they sat there.

During this period of time, they also deliberately observed the men going up the mountain, thinking whether they could find out the bad guy in advance. As a result, after watching for a while, perhaps because the imperial examination was approaching, there were quite a few men going up the mountain. Some went up alone, some went in groups, and some went up with a group of servants. They looked similar, but not the same.

After all, not everyone who passes by here will speak, and they can't call out to every man who passes by. Let's listen to their voices. Fortunately, Miss Chen is here. Following Miss Chen, as long as that man dares to take action, they will definitely make him never return.

They were afraid of being discovered, so they didn't dare to follow too closely. They only stood up and followed until Miss Chen and the others were almost out of sight.

Although they have more people overall, fortunately there are four people in front of them who are obviously the masters, so if they are divided evenly, their number is not that large.

They followed slowly behind them all the way. Maybe there were too many of them, so Miss Chen's aunt and sister-in-law looked back twice and found that their masters were older children, so they didn't take them seriously. It was normal for such children to bring some people with them when they went out.

Yunguang Temple is located halfway up the mountain. The place is quite spacious. There are two neat rows of vendors in front of the temple. Maybe because the weather is good today, many people have come one after another.

Slowly, the stalls began to become lively. Many people lingered in front of the stalls selling various incenses, Buddhist beads, jade pendants, sachets, etc. In addition to these, there was even a scholar selling calligraphy and paintings. Several paintings were neatly placed on a table supported by thin sticks on one side. The scholar stood on the right side of the table, reading a book intently.

It looked like he was a student who was short of money before taking an exam, so he sold his calligraphy and paintings to supplement his living expenses. However, not many people came to see them. Shu Xiaoxiao glanced at the calligraphy and paintings, which were all about mountains, water and so on. She didn't understand what they meant specifically, but they had a very ancient style.

I don’t have time now, I’ll wait until she comes out and then take care of her. I have to support the candidates at least.

After looking around and finding nothing to buy, the group entered the temple. The ancient trees inside were towering. Although they were not without green leaves, every branch was decorated with white snow, making it look picturesque. Through the dense branches, one could seem to imagine how lush these trees are in summer.

The snow on the ground must have been swept by monks, revealing the bluestone slabs still covered with moss. The grass and trees on both sides were covered with snow, revealing their withered and yellow tips, which made people want to find out what was going on.

Shu Tingfei led his men to stand in an empty corner, and sighed as he looked at the group of people following them. "It's fine on the road, but when we get to the temple, so many people will stand out. Two of you... four of you, pretend to be tourists and follow Miss Chen around to protect her. If Miss Chen is left alone, one of you will come back to inform us, and the other three will protect Miss Chen."

Shu Tingfei originally thought that two people would be enough, but seeing how many people there were, he decided to go with four. Otherwise, it would be too busy.

"Yes." The four of them took the order and left immediately.

Shu Tingfei watched helplessly as the servants, who were originally full of vigor and righteousness, became lax in the blink of an eye, and even took off their outer clothes, revealing their ordinary clothes. Then they slowly dispersed and mixed into the crowd. No matter how you looked at them, they looked like ordinary people. No one could have imagined that they were so vigorous just now.

Shu Tingfei blinked. He just randomly pointed at four people. Well, he underestimated the extent to which his eldest brother and the eldest brother in the Prime Minister's Mansion were sister-con and brother-con.

With these people, Miss Chen's safety is no longer a concern. Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken? These two prodigal sons.

Shu Xiaoxiao, Su Shiche, and Qian Jinbao also blinked their eyes: Well, it seems quite powerful!

Shu Tingfei turned around and looked at the three people: "As for Miss Chen's matter, we will just wait for notification. You can take two people with you and go wherever you want. You can go around. The others will hide around and protect you at any time."

As soon as Shu Tingfei finished speaking, the servants looked at their master, obviously seeking advice.

Shu Xiaoxiao/Su Shiche quickly said, "Listen to my third brother/Shu Laosan."

"Yes." After everyone answered, the people in front stood in an orderly manner behind the four masters, and the rest of the people retreated directly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Shu Tingfei twitched his lips again.
