Chapter 1849: The Frail Young Master's Joy-Clash Beautiful Wife 04

~8 min read 1,466 words

"Same month, same day, same birth." Ji Ji De narrowed his eyes, suddenly sensing something off, "You are substituting for Ye Zining to marry Chen'er?"

Even though in his previous life he had been "crazy" for so long, but when truly facing this Jin Family head, Ye Yuchi still felt somewhat nervous; fortunately, the feeling of being embraced by Jin Chen was stronger, which inexplicably dispelled that nervousness.

"Yes... the eldest uncle is the family head; his order, Yuchi dare not defy." Ye Yuchi lowered his head in reply; with just a few words, he already had the image of a tormented concubine-born son in the Jin Family's hearts.

Jin Chen, feeling distressed, held Ye Yuchi's arm tighter, muttering, "Ah Ci, rest assured, I will not let you suffer injustice."

Ye Yuchi spaced out a bit; when he looked back at Jin Chen and saw his solemn expression, he couldn't help but smile, "Thank you, husband."

When the ox-nosed old Taoist earlier calculated Jin Chen's fortune, he concluded that the eight characters of the person meant to clash with joy were precise down to the hour.

Even if born on the same month, same day, same year, differing hours of birth would result in completely different fates.

"In that case... it was the Ye Family doing this on purpose, simply not wanting Ye Zining to marry over?"

Jin Enxing's voice trembled a little; unable to contain his anger, he slammed the table, "How dare they!"

"For a matter of life and death, when have we ever forced the Ye Family!"

The shops and silver notes we gave out were genuine; when the Ye Family head agreed, his face broke into a smile—turns out he was making such a fortunate calculation!

Qiao Yan Pei, thinking back, only felt frightened; they had been overly concerned about when Chen'er would wake up, thus losing their composure on such an important matter, giving the audacious Ye Family an opportunity.

Ji Ji De's voice was deep and heavy; he fiercely flicked his sleeve, his aura icy like a slaughter. "Hmph, Ye Family, this is certain... last night Chen'er wouldn't survive the wedding night, so they could push all blame onto Ye Yuchi."

Such a petty plan could only be thought up by someone as foolish as Ye Bing Tian.

"This... what's the difference between this and cursing my Chen'er?"

Qiao Yan Pei covered her tears with a handkerchief, her beautiful eyes suddenly turning fierce, "En'er, you go personally to the Ye Family later and have Ye Bing Tian that scoundrel give an explanation, and also remind them well that our Chen'er is doing fine now."

"What Mother says is right." Jin Enxing's inner anger was not smooth; after a while he suppressed it, and his favorable impression of the Ye Family vanished completely.

Ye Yuchi observed the Jin Family's reactions in his eyes, his gaze flickering; he heard Jin Chen beside him cough softly a few times.

"I don't understand what you're saying, Mother; I don't want Ye Zining, it was Ah Ci who called me back."

"I only want Ah Ci."

Jin Chen spoke righteously; seeing Ji Ji De's look of hatred for iron not becoming steel, he also returned the gaze without fear, "Father, don't scold me, my newlywed husband is still sitting here."

Ji Ji De forced a laugh, annoyed, "When have I ever truly scolded you?"

Jin Chen thought for a moment, then secretly whispered to Ye Yuchi beside him, "Ah Ci, look, my father isn't fierce at all; he just looks fierce, don't be afraid of him."

The young master actually noticed that he himself was nervous.

Ye Yuchi felt somewhat unbelievable, finally nodded with an "en" sound, and also felt his heart a bit strange, like being lightly brushed by a feather.

Their interaction was observed by the Jin Family; Qiao Yan Pei withdrew from her anger, feeling somewhat relieved and also fortunate, glad that Chen'er had come to no harm and still lived peacefully.

At that moment, seeing Ye Yuchi also made her heart feel more joy.

"It seems Chen'er spoke correctly; it is precisely because of fate that this happened, an accidental match that became true matrimony."

Qiao Yan Pei pulled Ye Yuchi's hand over, patted it, and placed the prepared jade bracelet in his palm, "Good child, from now on live well with Chen'er, Mother doesn't blame you, ah."

Ye Yuchi had never heard such affectionate words before; he stared blankly at Qiao Yan Pei, then was called to eat by Jin Enxing, and even felt somewhat dazed in his heart.

It turned out the young master had awakened, actually in such a good state, completely different from his previous life, like being in a dream.

Even the morning meal was tasty and warm enough to dispel the winter chill, far better than the leftover soup in the Ye Family's side courtyard.

But for Jin Chen, it was not so.

This body, unknown what strange illness it has, year-round cannot withstand wind or rain; coughing is hard to heal, chest pain not to mention, and it also affects appetite.

After just a couple bites he felt nauseous, but Jin Chen, starving to the point his chest stuck to his back, put down his chopsticks, dazedly staring at the bowl of ginseng porridge.

When taking medicine, how come he didn't feel nauseous?

Is this the cannon fodder setting meant to pave the way for the protagonist?

Not reasonable at all!

"Chen'er, eat two more bites; after sleeping so long and waking up, you should eat a bit more." Qiao Yan Pei advised with a sigh, her eyes showing only pity and helplessness.

Jin Chen, against his conscience, put down the bowl, "Mother, I'm full."

Eating another half bite would make him vomit.

Ye Yuchi gazed in surprise at the bowl still half-full of porridge, and seeing the Jin Family genuinely worried, after pondering for two seconds he lifted Jin Chen's bowl and softly said, "Husband, eat a bit more."

"Eh……"

Jin Chen tried to open his mouth, hesitantly taking the spoon, inwardly urging himself.

No vomiting allowed.

It's the husband feeding him.

Vomiting would be terrible.

Then he swallowed it!

Not a trace of nauseous feeling.

Jin Chen was so doubtful he even hummed with a turning tone.

【Hey, normal, this is all just setting~】Ling Gun Gun unfathomable, 【At least you don't have to starve anymore, right.】

"How is it?"

Ye Yuchi originally was just putting on a show for the Jin Family, having prepared to put down the bowl if Jin Chen felt nauseous, but he saw Jin Chen's eyes instantly brighten.

"Ah." Jin Chen opened his mouth, indicating the husband to continue.

Ye Yuchi: "……"

If it were someone else, one would surely think it was deliberate teasing of him.

But this young master is truly pitiful; how could he harbor ill intentions?

Ye Yuchi, hearing this, curled his lips into a light smile at Jin Chen; a tenderness he himself hadn't yet realized flickered in his eyes, and he simply held the bowl and finished the remaining half-bowl of porridge.

Now even Qiao Yan Pei felt utterly astonished; knowing that usually coaxing Chen'er to eat would take who knows how long, yet there was no way—once ingested, he would vomit.

Jin Enxing clicked his tongue in amazement, "Being married really makes a difference."

Jin Chen finally ate his fill and drank his fill, then he put his arm around Ye Yuchi's arm and held her; Ye Yuchi snuggled close, leaning against his shoulder.

"Ah Ci, I'll trouble you from now on." Jin Chen looked a bit embarrassed, the corners of his eyes slightly raised, a faint blush appearing; his pitiful expression made it hard for anyone to refuse.

Especially after Ye Yuchi learned what hardships this young master had endured due to his illness, she became even more Soft-hearted.

Ye Yuchi only consoled herself in her heart, thinking that Jin Chen still couldn't die; at the very least she had to let him gain a firm footing in the Jin Family and take control of the shop afterwards.

So, taking good care of Jin Chen was also appropriate; this was all for her own future plans.

Thinking this, Ye Yuchi felt much better at heart; her gaze toward Jin Chen was very gentle, as if light flowed within it.

A few moments later, Jin Chen suddenly tapped the corner of Ye Yuchi's mouth with his fingertip, "Ah Ci, you look beautiful when you smile; you should smile more often."

Ye Yuchi was somewhat startled, hastily reaching out to grab Jin Chen's finger and pull it away; hearing Qiao Yan Pei's laughter from beside the table made her ears feel even hotter.

"Husband, do you still want to eat something else?"
