Started to get rich after exile

Chapter 171 The Only Family

When Meng Huaisu heard this, he was about to rush to the edge of the cliff. Ye Juelu was afraid that he would fall if he got excited, so he quickly stopped him.

"Calm down, she is at the entrance of the cave, not far away, you can't see her."

Meng Huaisu took a breath and said, "I'm worried that she's afraid."

"You tell her directly here."

Meng Huaisu had never shouted so loudly in his life, it was inappropriate, but now he couldn't care so much, he just wanted to listen to Dongxia's voice.

"Don't be afraid, I will rescue you right away!!"

Dongxia, who was waiting, was startled, "Huaisu?! You're here too! Don't worry, I'll be fine!!"

Ming Lanying felt relieved after knowing that Dongxia was fine, and urged her guards to move faster.

After the rope was connected, it was lowered in the direction of the sound. Ming Lanying shouted, "Dongxia, wrap it around your body a few times and tie it tightly. We will pull you up!"

The rope swayed, and then Dongxia's voice came, "Okay!"

Ye Juelu and others slowly pulled her up. Meng Huaisu anxiously picked her up. As soon as she got her hands on her, he hugged her nervously and soon let go.

Fortunately, Dongxia only had a few scratches on her body and she also brought dry food and water with her, so there wasn't much of a problem.

Ming Lanying checked up and down and was completely relieved, "Why did you run there! Why are you so brave? You scared us to death!"

Dongxia wrapped her cloak around her and smiled flatteringly.

"Sister-in-law, don't be angry. I just saw a herb growing on the cliff. The vine was strong, so I went down. As a result, I let go of the vine and it swayed away. Fortunately, there was a small hole there, and I could just hide in it."

Ming Lanying couldn't help but pinch her face, "Meng Huaisu squatted in the palace for two days and couldn't wait for you, and you almost scared him to death."

Dongxia looked up at Meng Huaisu, who had blue eyes, a tired face and a wretched look, and her heart softened, "I'm sorry, it was an accident this time and made you worry."

Meng Huaisu had a sullen face and held her hand tightly, "Don't you think about Chao Chao when you go down to collect herbs? What will Chao Chao and I do if something happens to you? He was only born not long ago!"

Dongxia grabbed his hand and shook it, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I am very experienced in collecting herbs. This time it was an accident..."

Meng Huaisu looked at her wet eyes and closed them softly.

He couldn't bear to fight, so if he dared to touch Ming Lanying next to him, Ye Juelu could fight him back.

After scolding again and again, Dongxia admitted her mistake, what else could she do?

Frustrated, he hugged her tightly. After getting along for a long time, if something happened to Dongxia, he couldn't imagine how he would take care of little Meng Chao alone and how he would explain to Aunt Meng.

"There can be no next time."

Dongxia rolled her eyes, "Okay!"

Ming Lanying waved her hand and said, "Okay, if you have anything to do, we'll talk about it when we get back. We'll go back first. Dongxia is also tired."

Meng Huaisu was a man after all, so he walked back with Dongxia on his back.

Dongxia lay on his back and heard his soft and low voice, "If you want to collect medicine from now on, I will go with you."

Dongxia was stunned and immediately refused, "No, you already have a lot to do. My collection of herbs is just a small matter, and I can't delay your business."

"It's difficult for me to collect herbs this time, but I've already collected almost all of them. I'll look for the remaining herbs in my sister-in-law's pharmacy. It's enough to make two pills. I won't go into the mountains next time."

Meng Huaisu pursed his lips in dissatisfaction, "You can let things go for now. There's no rush. The prefects are all our own people, so it's okay."

Dongxia wanted to say something else, but Meng Huaisu adjusted his position and said, "Okay, that's it."

Dongxia sighed helplessly, and the way back became much easier. She lay on Meng Huaisu's back and fell asleep slowly.

Mr. Zhao knew that she had ended up there when she climbed the cliff while collecting herbs. He was angry and funny, but seeing how tired she looked, he couldn't wake her up and lecture her.

He waved his hands helplessly and said to Meng Huaisu, "Go back and rest."

Grandma Cai breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, nothing major happened. Otherwise, this happy event is approaching, so don't let anything happen..."

He Bai and Shan Zhao led people to search in the mountains for a day, but found nothing. They were almost attacked by wild beasts. After being called back, they all sat down in a heap of exhaustion, snuggling up and yawning.

He Bai muttered: "Why did Dongxia go to the cliff to collect herbs?"

Shan Zhao scratched his head, "Maybe he found some rare herbal medicine. Isn't it said that the most dangerous places have the greatest opportunities? Not many people dare to go on the cliffs. No one must collect any precious medicinal materials there, but winter and summer are really powerful. Touching You can go down by holding on to the vines.”

Ming Lanying reached out and flicked them both, "It's not just to give you a gift."

He Bai covered his forehead and shrank back, his eyes lit up, "Wow! Give it to me? That must be some kind of elixir! Does it enhance internal strength or enhance strength?"

Ming Lanying rolled her eyes speechlessly, "I don't know, but it shouldn't have the effects you mentioned."

He Bai excitedly went to find Dong Xia, but Shan Zhao quickly held him back, "She just fell asleep, don't wake her up, or Meng Huaisu will glare at you with a bad face."

He Bai sat back and said, "Okay, okay."

Aunt Cai looked helplessly at the two people who were about to get married. According to the rules, they were not allowed to see each other one month before the wedding, but this rule seemed to be of no use to them. They still hung out and fought and did things every day.

He Bai's new mansion was bought in the middle section between the palace and the military camp. It was close to both sides. Manager Chang led people to tinker with it for five days, and it had a completely new look.

Ming Lanying said she would hold a banquet in the military camp, and she meant what she said. A banquet for 200,000 people requires a lot of preparation in advance, and in a military camp, a table of twenty-six dishes is basically hard food.

Two hundred thousand people accounted for one-fifth of the population of the frontier fortress. When purchasing ingredients, she bought out goods from three states. She invited all the cooks from the three nearby states, including shopkeeper Li’s restaurant staff, and added The logistics soldiers in the military camp also came to help, which was enough.

The military camp cannot be decorated, but the atmosphere still needs to be there. Bonfire stands decorated with red satin surround a large area of ​​​​the venue, and long tables and chairs are lined up in several long rows.

The frontier fortress is not very prosperous and wealthy, but the land is large and sufficient.

Ming Lanying took a look at the prepared venue and couldn't believe how lively it was when everyone was here.

She lamented: "This is probably the wedding with the most people I have ever seen in my life."

Ye Juelu turned his head and looked at her, "When we get married, it will be more grand and spectacular than this."

Ming Lanying waved her hands indifferently, "No need, others will laugh at it."

Although she has never been married in her two lives, it doesn't matter. She doesn't care about these false etiquette. It's just that there is a little bit of ceremony missing. It doesn't mean that she despises this relationship.

But Ye Juelu doesn't think so. If others have it, she should have it even if she doesn't care.

The wedding day was approaching, and Ming Lanying felt a pain in her body when she saw the money flowing out.

Ming Lanying grabbed Ye Juelu's hand with a look of discomfort on her face, "Will the people in your military camp give you a gift? Yes? Any amount will do, even ten cents. Give me some comfort."

Ye Juelu: "...I will."

The people who work under him receive a lot of monthly salary and subsidies, and they can still get the gifts. Although it can't make up for the money flowing out, it can give Ming Lanying some comfort.

Ming Lanying breathed a sigh of relief as expected. Money was her life. Without it, it would be like draining her blood bar, not to mention the money she had saved for so long.

But when she turned around, she saw He Bai and Shan Zhao sparring in her beautiful garden. The two were fighting passionately and didn't care about the life or death of the poor delicate flowers in the garden.

Ming Lanying was confused for a moment and was about to faint as soon as she rolled her eyes. Ye Juelu quickly caught her.

"Ma'am, calm down, I'm going to teach them a lesson."

Ming Lanying pointed at the two naughty children with trembling hands, "Go! Repair the animal garden! You won't be allowed to eat until the repairs are completed!"

Just as He Bai and Shan Zhao were separated by one move, Ye Juelu punched them both, leaving them stunned.

While the two were stunned, they dragged each other to the Beast Garden.

The last time Minglan Orioles photographed them to look for Dongxia, I saw their strong and agile figures, running freely in the mountains and forests, and felt that it was time to separate. After all, animals are not suitable for raising, but are suitable for nature.

Then she communicated with them for a while. Some of them who could adapt to the frontier fortress environment reluctantly returned to nature, while others who were not accustomed to the frontier fortress environment still returned to the palace.

The Beast Garden was half empty, and the garden needed to be renovated, but no one in the mansion had the guts to go in.

Even if it is half empty, the remaining ones are all raptors and ferocious beasts, bloodthirsty and ferocious by nature, and will not give face to anyone except Minglan Ying.

He Bai and Shan Zhao did not dare to say a word under Ye Juelu's overwhelming momentum.

Ye Juelu pushed open the door of the Beast Garden and pointed to the open space, "If you destroy the garden, repair it. Your sister-in-law said you can't eat until the repair is completed."

He Bai grimaced and Shan Zhao scratched his head.

The beasts in the beast garden glanced at them lazily and continued to ask for their own.

Let them come and repair the garden. Of course, these ferocious beasts will not hurt them, but they will not give them face, so they can play and have fun.

The crane swept away the dead grass, the leopard's tail flew away, Shan Zhao repaired the climbing frame, and the two lions lay motionless on it.

As a result, the two of them worked on the entire garden until midnight. They were so hungry that they went to the kitchen for a midnight snack.

The wedding day arrived amidst the fights between the two naughty children. He Bai was picked up by Aunt Cai and Dong Xia early in the morning, and his clothes were stripped before he even opened his eyes. "Wow! What are you doing! You're taking off my clothes before it's even daylight!"

Dongxia smiled and wiped her face with a warm wet handkerchief to refresh herself, "Wake up, bride, today is your big day!"

Aunt Cai quickly cleaned her up and pushed her to the side of the tub. "Girl, please be smart. You can have a few bites of breakfast while you still have time to bathe!"

Ming Lanying specifically promised that the bride and groom would not go through the ceremony hungry.

He Bai was stunned for a moment, and when Dong Xia was about to wipe her body, he quickly stopped him, "Hey, hey, hey! I'll do this myself!"

Dongxia put the handkerchief on her shoulders, "Okay, okay, then we'll wash your hair."

It was the first time for Hebai to be bathed by two people. She felt uncomfortable all over. After working for a while, Dongxia and Aunt Cai helped her change clothes and wipe her hair. Manager Ying slipped in with breakfast to help.

"Girl, while you haven't put on your makeup yet, let's eat something to cushion ourselves."

He Bai's nose twitched, "It smells so good, minced meat porridge, egg pancakes, and small fried dough sticks! My sister-in-law made it by herself?!"

Hebai was pinned down on the chair and couldn't move. Manager Ying brought a bowl to her so that she could take a few bites.

"Yes, the princess got up early in the morning to do it."

He Bai ate most of the bowl of porridge, chewed on egg pancakes with small fried dough sticks, and his cheeks were bulging.

He Bai was distracted by the food. Manager Dong Xia and Ying held her, while Grandma Cai quickly put on her wedding dress.

As soon as she finished eating, she took the time to put on makeup. Hebai's courtyard started to be busy early in the morning. Ming Lanying had no experience, so she took Ning'er to watch.

The little black panther, wolf cub and two little squirrels squatted beside them and tilted their heads to watch the fun, with festive red satin bows around their necks, they were so cute.

There is a row of little sparrows and sea turtles standing on the eaves, and they all have a small piece of red silk tied to one of their paws.

The palace was flooded with warm and festive red, and Ye Juelu went to Shan Zhao to help.

Shan Zhao's family was in a special situation. Shan's family could not leave the border at will, so only his eldest brother and sister-in-law came. They were playing and rushing on the way, completely missing the agreed time, and arriving late because of the night before the wedding.

Shan Zhao might not have seen his family for a long time, and he had been looking forward to it, but he was given a surprise on the morning of the wedding. When he arrived, he didn't even have time to talk. He was picked up by his elder brother and sister-in-law and gave him a slap in the face.

In the end, Shan Zhao only remembered what his sister-in-law said when she poked his forehead, "When you marry a chicken, follow the chicken; when you marry a dog, follow the dog. He Bai is the person you have been thinking about for a long time. Now you have got what you wanted, and there is no room for regret." "

Shan Zhao: "..."

Ye Juelu also met his family. Brother Shan was calm and didn't talk much, while his sister-in-law had a fiery personality, cheerful and loved to laugh. Their personalities were quite complementary.

Shan Zhao loves to laugh so much because he probably got it from his sister-in-law.

Ye Juelu raised his hand to stop the two of them from saluting, "We are the in-laws today, so there is no need to be too polite."

Sister-in-law Shan smiled and said, "Then let's be respectful rather than obeying orders. My little brother has caused trouble to the prince during this period, and also made the prince and princess worry about his marriage. Thank you to the prince and princess."

Brother Shan pointed to the three big boxes placed in the yard, "It's a small gift and a small thought. Please accept it. Thank you for taking care of me."

Ye Juelu didn't shirk and asked someone to take her away. He said to Sister-in-law Shan, "My wife is helping in my sister's yard. I want someone to lead the way for Madam Shan?"

Sister-in-law Shan had been walking all the way. When she arrived at the frontier, she had heard about Princess Yan and wanted to meet the legendary princess. "Thank you, Your Majesty."

As soon as Sister-in-law Shan followed the maid into the yard, she saw a beautiful lady followed by a handsome young man. Next to her were a black panther, a snow wolf and two little squirrels.

Drawing is kind of cute.

The maid stepped forward and saluted, "Princess, Mr. Shan's sister-in-law, Mrs. Shan, is here."

Ming Lanying was stunned for a moment, then turned around to see a heroic woman with a smile on her face.

"When did Mrs. Shan arrive? I didn't know. It's really rude."

Sister-in-law Shan smiled and clasped her fists in salute, "We just arrived last night. We arrived too late to disturb the prince and princess. This is the first time we meet. My name is Zhong Peiyun. I am Shan Zhao's sister-in-law. The princess can just call me by my name."

Ming Lanying quickly helped her up, "I'll call you Peiyun. From now on, we will be my in-laws. Don't call me princess or concubine. Just call me Lanying."

Zhong Peiyun smiled and shook her head, "The princess expresses her love, but this is a rule. I haven't thanked the princess for taking care of my little brother."

As he spoke, he took out a dagger inlaid with gems from his sleeve and handed it to her, "This is a treasure I got by chance. It sharpens iron like clay. Princess, please keep it with you for self-defense! Princess, please accept it."

Ming Lanying was taken aback for a moment, but seeing her firm eyes that she could not refuse, she took it anyway.

"Then I have to learn how to use it."

Zhong Peiyun was relieved. She was the most impatient of trying to push people around. Fortunately, Ming Lanying and Ye Juelu were not pushy people, and the smiles on their faces deepened.

"I haven't met my future siblings yet, can I take care of them inside?"

Ming Lanying nodded, "It should be out soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the room was opened. He was wearing a phoenix opera and peony gold silk auspicious cloud wedding dress, and a gilded phoenix crown with rows of beads and tassels on his head.

Zhong Peiyun's eyes lit up, "Brother and sister!"

He Bai was stunned for a moment, and Ming Lanying introduced her with a smile, "Sister-in-law Shan Zhao is also your future sister-in-law."

Zhong Peiyun strode forward to look at her carefully and laughed, "The younger siblings look so good, the frontier fortress is really full of outstanding people, and Prince Yan's Mansion is a nest of beauties!"

Ming Lanying smiled, as if indeed, no one was ugly.

Hebai and Ababa looked a little confused, but still called out, "Hello, sister-in-law."

"Okay! You and Shan Zhao will live a good life from now on. The Shan family is far away and your brother and sister-in-law are here, so you don't have to worry."

Just when Zhong Peiyun was about to take a few shots, he stopped suddenly when he saw the wedding dress on her body. He took out a heavy gold hairpin with butterfly peony and gemstones and inserted it into her bun.

"The meeting gifts for you, the meeting gifts and the congratulatory gifts from your parents have been carried to your new house. You should all like them. Remember to look at them later."

Zhong Peiyun was straight forward, with a hearty smile on his face and eyes, which made people feel good. He Bai grinned.

"Thank you sister-in-law, and thank you father and mother too!"

Aunt Cai and others saluted Zhong Peiyun and said hello. Manager Ying looked at the sky and heard the sound of firecrackers outside. After working for most of the day, the auspicious time had arrived.

"Princess, madam, the auspicious time has come. It's time for the girl to set off."

Ming Lanying looked at Hebai with her phoenix crown and delicate makeup. This was the first time she had seen her look so formal and solemn, and she couldn't help feeling that time flies so fast.

"Okay, let's go!"

Aunt Cai handed the red hijab to Ming Lanying and asked her mother-in-law, Ming Lanying, to put it on her.

He Bai's eyes were covered with red, and he smiled at Ming Lanying and said: "Sister-in-law, can I come back to sleep in the future?"

Ming Lanying straightened the tassel on her belt for her, "The yard is reserved for you. Come back when you want. How can I stop you?"

Ning'er also smiled and said, "Aunt Hebai, this will always be your home!"

He Bai chuckled and rubbed Ning'er's little face. Ye Juelu came in just in time and lowered himself in front of He Bai.

He Bai was shocked, "Brother?! What's wrong with you!?"

Dongxia pushed her gently from behind, "I'm getting you married!"

He Bai was so moved that he choked up, "Brother... the last time you carried me was the last time..."

Ye Juelu: "..."

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Zhong Peiyun also admired the atmosphere of Prince Yan's Mansion.

He Bai choked with sobs and climbed onto Ye Juelu's back, as if he was back when she was a child, but that time he carried her back to Youjia after crying until she fainted. This time, he carried her to marry her from the palace as his elder brother.

He Bai finally couldn't help but wet his eyes.

Ye Juelu's steps were steady as he slowly led her out of the house and onto the sedan chair.

He Bai whispered: "Brother, you, sister-in-law and Ning'er are my only family members."

Ye Juelu's voice was slow, "We are your forever family, and so is Shan Zhao."

"Yeah! Got it!"

Ye Juelu reluctantly let her into the sedan chair, "It's our wedding today, so don't let it go."

He Bai under the hijab muttered: "I know, I know, I'm reliable!"

Today she is going to pick up her groom in a sedan chair in high spirits!
