Yan Qianqian

Seeing this, Yan Wang hurriedly tidied his clothing a little, then walked out of the room in quick steps. When he arrived in the courtyard, he saw at a glance Yan Si sitting there waiting.

Yan Wang walked up to Yan Si and asked with a smile, "Second Brother, why have you come?"

Yan Si smiled and replied, "I know you spent a great deal of money rewarding the soldiers in this battle, so I specially brought some silver for you."

As he spoke, he took out a stack of banknotes from his bosom and slapped them onto the table with a "pa."

Yan Wang looked closely and was instantly shocked. These banknotes were all denominated at two thousand taels each; by a rough estimate, there were at least a dozen or more! He hurriedly said, "Second Brother, this won't do! This is really too much. If Second Sister-in-law finds out, she will definitely be angry."

Yan Si looked at Yan Wang and said earnestly, "Fourth Brother, don't worry. Your Second Sister-in-law knows about this matter, and she agreed to it. I told her long ago that this Wangfu will sooner or later be handed over to you.

In the future, our An Wang Fu's huge family business will depend on you to support it. Second Brother here has no talent; since childhood I didn't like martial arts, so I could only do what I liked and become a merchant. But you, though young, have already borne so many responsibilities.

If Second Brother can help you a little, I want to help you a little. To put it in longer-term terms, perhaps thirty years from now, when the Wangfu is in your hands, others will still look at me differently because I have an outstanding brother like you, and give me many conveniences in doing business.

So these are all what you deserve. Moreover, the Yan Family Army are all our own people; your wealth has not been squandered recklessly, but used to support them. Second Brother, as a member of the Yan Family, although I haven't contributed much effort, it is only right that I contribute some money."

After hearing these words, Yan Wang's heart surged with an indescribable emotion. He gazed at Yan Si, his eyes showing deep respect and gratitude toward his elder brother.

Seeing this, Yan Si pushed that banknote forward again. This time, Yan Wang did not decline again, but accepted it without hesitation.

Just then, Yan Wang suddenly said, "Second Brother, rest assured. Even if it's fifty or sixty years later, as long as I am alive, I will do my best to protect all of you."

His voice was firm and powerful, as if making an eternal vow.

Hearing these words, Yan Si couldn't help but show a relieved smile on his face. He nodded and said, "We believe in you." These simple four words contained Yan Si's boundless trust and expectations for his younger brother.

The two brothers hadn't seen each other for some time. Now reunited, they naturally had much to say. They cared for each other's recent circumstances, shared the bits and pieces of life, and deep familial affection spread through the air.

However, good times are always short. Three days passed in a flash, and Yan Wang had to return to the military camp. Although he felt some reluctance in his heart, he knew his responsibility was great and he could not slacken in the slightest.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye it was the day of Yan Shuang'er's wedding. On the day before this important moment arrived, Yan Wang finally returned home.

At the same time, An Wang specially requested a day's leave for Yan Jie so that he could watch his elder sister's wedding.

Just like when Yan Xiner married, the bridal attendant invited for Yan Shuang'er's wedding was still the best. However, what was different was that this time, when Yan Shuang'er married, Shangguan Xingyu stayed by her side, chatting with her, letting her mood relax a little, unlike Yan Xiner who was nervous.

Time passed quickly, and soon Qi Yu's tall horse appeared in everyone's sight. And Yan Wang had been waiting at the gate early, waiting for the wedding procession to arrive.

Recalling when Yan Xiner married last time, Yan Wang was still young then, but now he was no longer what he used to be. The current Yan Wang was not only a triumphant general, but also the mainstay of the Yan Family.

Facing such a situation, Qi Yu naturally did not dare to be careless.

He knew Yan Wang's prowess, so this time coming to fetch the bride, he specially brought over twenty people. Although these people were all servants of the Wangfu and their martial arts were not top-notch, they had the advantage of great numbers. Moreover, Yan Wang was only responsible for blocking the door and could not injure people, which undoubtedly restricted his actions to a certain extent.

And these servants, before coming, had already received An Ning's instructions. As long as they could successfully fetch the bride back, everyone could receive a reward of ten taels of silver. This was undoubtedly no small fortune for the servants, so they all worked very hard to complete this task.

Thus, this group of people rushed forward recklessly, completely disregarding their image and safety. Some hugged Yan Wang's thighs, some tightly hugged his arms, and some even directly grabbed his clothes, refusing to let go.

Even worse, someone actually went to grab Yan Wang's belt, which made Yan Wang, who always cared about dignity, feel very embarrassed and helpless.

Facing the siege of these twenty-plus people, Yan Wang wanted to exert force to break free, but worried about injuring these servants. He was tightly locked by them, completely unable to move, and could only watch helplessly as Qi Yu walked into An Wang Fu in a grand manner.

After entering the Wangfu, Qi Yu saw An Wang and An Wangfei not far away at a glance. An Wangfei was holding Yan Jie's hand, smiling at him. Seeing this, Qi Yu hurriedly called out, "Uncle and Aunt, I've come to fetch Shuang'er home!"

An Wangfei was still fairly satisfied with this son-in-law Qi Yu. After all, the two families were old friends, and Qi Yu had grown up with Yan Shuang'er since childhood; they knew each other's backgrounds. Hearing Qi Yu's words, An Wangfei smiled and nodded, saying, "Mm, go."

However, An Wang beside him had a gloomy expression, clearly not welcoming Qi Yu's arrival. He was even unwilling to look at Qi Yu, let alone speak to him.

However, Qi Yu seemed not to care about this. After all, he had often gone to Yan Shuang'er's courtyard before, and knew the way there like the back of his hand. So he directly walked toward Wufangyuan, preparing to welcome his bride.

At this moment, Wufangyuan was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, full of joy. Looking around, various red double-happiness characters were everywhere, as if the whole garden was enveloped in a festive atmosphere.

And in this lively atmosphere, the noisy sounds from the gate had already reached Wufangyuan. Yan Shuang'er sat quietly by the bedside, with a bright red veil covering her head, like a shy flower, waiting for her bridegroom.

Beside her, Qianqian and Shangguan Xingyu were chatting excitedly, discussing when Elder Brother Qi Yu would come in.

Shangguan Xingyu suddenly said with a smile, "Fourth Brother's martial arts are so high; surely Qi Yu won't be unable to come in?" This remark made Qianqian and Yan Shuang'er laugh along as well.
