Chapter: 145.1 out of 171

After the family ate lunch, Wei Luo went with fourth madam to the reception pavilion to talk for a while, then she went to first branch's Banyan Tree Courtyard with Liang Yu Rong. There were still leftover bright red paper cutouts of the "double happiness" from the wedding day. The lanterns in the verandah also hadn't been taken down yet.

When they entered the bridal chamber, Wei Luo saw shining, red candles that were decorated with a dragon and a phoenix on a long, narrow table. Next to the candles, there was a golden tray filled with peanuts, red dates, lotus seeds, and other items. Wei Luo smiled as she looked at Liang Yu Rong and asked, "Can I go inside to look?"

(T/N: Below are pictures of the candles.)

In a slightly bad mood, Liang Yu Rong cast her an annoyed look and asked her a question in response, "If you want to look, can I stop you?"

Wei Luo pursed her lips and laughed. She grandiosely walked into the inner room. The inner room had a twelve piece red sandalwood divider that was decoratively carved with lotus flowers. Behind the divider, there was all of the furniture that the newlyweds would need.

Wei Luo looked around with keen interest as if she wasn't already married herself. She walked to the bedside and pointed at the pair of crimson pillows that were embroidered with a pair of mandarin ducks. She asked, "Yu Rong, did you embroidered this yourself?"

Liang Yu Rong nodded. She proudly said, "In addition to the pillows, the quilt and bed sheet were also embroidered by me."

Wei Luo blinked and asked with a smile, "I remember that your embroidery skills weren't very good. Why did you embroider so much?"

The tips of Liang Yu Rong's ears turned red. Without saying a word, she led Wei Luo to sit down on a couch by the window and pretended that she didn't hear her question.

Wei Luo supported her cheeks in her hands and wouldn't let her off. She smilingly asked, "Yu Rong, how was your wedding night with oldest cousin?"

Liang Yu Rong took an orange and stuffed it into Wei Luo's hand. Angry out of embarrassment, she said, "Eat an orange. Why are you asking so many questions today?"

Liang Yu Rong wasn't a person that was easily embarrassed, but her young girl's heart had been fully appeared after she had recently married the person she loved. Her shy and embarrassed appearance made her looked much cuter than normal. No wonder Wei Luo couldn't resist teasing her.

After Wei Luo mentioned it, Liang Yu Rong couldn't help thinking about her wedding night with Wei Chang Yin. She had always thought that Wei Chang Yin was an elegant and noble person that had didn't have any earthly desires. Unexpectedly, even he had moments when he couldn't restrain his emotions…

That night, it had been the first time for the both of them. There were bound to be mishaps. Since Wei Chang Ying's leg wasn't fully recovered, he guided her to complete the wedding night with his words. As his quiet and hoarse voice entered her ears, Liang Yu Rong felt as if her brains were turning into a tangled mess. She couldn't think of anything. She even forgot about the booklet that her mother had given her the night before the wedding. She could only follow Wei Chang Yin's words. Whatever words he said, she obediently did them.

On the first attempt, it went to the wrong place. Liang Yu Rong felt so pained that tears came rolling down her eyes. She curled up against Wei Chang Yin's chest and cried out, "It hurts."

Wei Chang Yin wrapped his arms around her shoulders. This was the first time that he realized this girl was so slim and frail. Feeling heartache, he kissed her forehead, "I'm sorry…" But, he didn't say he wanted to stop.

All women had to experience this. Since she had married him, he wanted to give her everything a wife would have. He didn't want other people to think badly of her. His leg was his only injured part. The other parts were perfectly fine.

When Liang Yu Rong went to greet her father-in-law and mother-in-law the next day, her sore legs felt completely lacking in strength and she even felt embarrassed every time she looked at Wei Chang Yin.

Two days later, she gradually became more comfortable.

Wei Luo peeled the orange. As her teeth bit down into the orange, sweet and fresh juice burst out. She curiously asked, "It's the not the season for oranges, why are these oranges so sweet?"

Liang Yu Rong explained, "Big brother Chang Yin knows that I like to eat oranges, so he especially had people deliver these oranges from the south." After saying this, she saw Wei Luo's suddenly enlightened gaze. She poked Wei Luo's forehead and said, "You couldn't possibly be feeling jealous over this, right? Don't think that I don't know. Your Prince Jing treats you so well. If you want to eat oranges, he might actually buy all of the orchards for you."

Wei Luo clutched her forehead, laughed, and confidently admitted, "That's true."

As two girls that had recently married, they had endless topics to talk about. After chattering for an hour, they heard noise from the outside courtyard. Liang Yu Rong tilted her head and looked out through the window. Wei Chang Yin was standing up from his wheelchair and toddling around the courtyard with the help of a cane. Liang Yu Rong immediately put down the items she was holding, jumped up from the arhat couch, and said, "Ah Luo, I'm going over there to look. Wait here for bit."

Right after Wei Luo said, "Okay," Liang Yu Rong disappeared like a wisp of smoke.

Chapter: 145.2 out of 171

Wei Chang Yin hadn't been able to walk since he was eight years old after a horse had stepped on his leg and injured his bones and muscles. It had already been over ten years since that accident. Not only did his wounds have to heal, he also had to learn how to walk again. Fortunately, the servants had been massaging Wei Chang Yin's leg every day and the muscular dystrophy hadn't been significant. So, it wasn't too difficult for him to practice walking.

Wei Luo saw Liang Yu Rong walk to Wei Chang Yin's side and say a few words to him. But, he shook his head in refusal.

Wei Chang Yin said, "You don't need to help me. You just have to stand in front of me. I'll walk towards you."

Liang Yu Rong couldn't let go her worries and asked, "What if you fall down?"

Wei Chang Yin smiled and stretched his hand out to stroke her head, "You'll be standing in front of me."

Liang Yu Rong bit her bottom lip. That was true. If he started to fall, she would definitely rush forward to help him. As a result, she reluctantly agreed to his idea.

Liang Yu Rong stood ten steps away from Wei Chang Yin. As Wei Chang Yin went one step forward, she would take one step back. She slowly guided him forward. After they had walked for about fifteen minutes, Liang Yu Rong was worried that Wei Chang Yin would be tired. So, she stopped underneath a plum tree. She wanted to let him rest for a bit. "Big brother Chang Yin, let's rest for a bit after you reach here. I feel a bit tired."

He knew that she had said she was the one feeling tried instead of saying it was him because she was worried about hurting his self-esteem. Wei Chang Yin lowered his head and chuckled. He actually wasn't a sensitive person, but he felt very comforted by Liang Yu Rong's attentiveness. He said, "Okay."

Wei Chang Yin slowly walked the remaining the steps. His leg wasn't fully recovered and his calf would tremble with each step. He had only walked for a brief period of time, but his forehead was covered in sweat. However, there wasn't the slightest sign of pain on his face. He still had usual carefree and light-hearted expression. If Liang Yu Rong didn't clearly know about his condition, she would have thought he was feeling relaxed.

Just as he was about to reach her side, he suddenly stopped walking, flung the cane to the ground, and opened his arms towards Liang Yu Rong. He said with a faint smile, "I can't walk anymore. Yu Rong, come and help me."

Without saying a word, Liang Yu Rong rushed forward. She wrapped her arm around his waist and said, "Didn't you say you could walk by yourself? You wouldn't agree to letting me help you."

Wei Chang Yin smiled and didn't say a word. Actually, there were only two steps left. He could have finished walking forward. It was only that he suddenly wanted to hug her.

Liang Yu Rong absolutely didn't know his true thoughts. She ordered a servant to push the wheelchair over and helped him sit down in the wheelchair. She asked, "Big brother Chang Yin, are you tired? I'll push you back to our room to rest."

Wei Chang Yin said, "I'll just rest underneath the tree. I still want to walk a little bit more later." He looked towards the room, "Is Ah Luo inside? Go inside and keep her company."

Liang Yu Rong finally remembered that Ah Luo was still in the room. She hastily went back to the room and said, "Ah Luo, sorry to keep you waiting…"

A servant girl wearing a pink jacket and skirt stepped forward and said, "First Young Madam, Princess Consort Jing has already left."

-----

Wei Luo was a person with a high level of discernment. Liang Yu Rong and Wei Chang Yin were in their honeymoon period where they were stuck together like glue. It wouldn't be good for her to forcibly break them apart.

After leaving Banyan Tree Courtyard, on the path to the main room, she saw two people standing in the verandah. It was a man and a woman. The man was Wei Chang Hong. The woman was wearing a peach colored jacket with a pattern of flowering branches. From her style of dress, she was this household's servant. Wei Luo couldn't hear what the servant girl was saying to Wei Chang Hong. She saw him furrowing his eyebrows and looking very serious. After he reprimanded the servant girl, the servant girl lowered her head in shame and ran away.

By an unlucky coincidence, she ran past Wei Luo.

Wei Luo clearly saw her face. She was one of the fourth madam's servant girls, Rui Zhu.

Wei Luo walked over to Wei Chang Hong and asked, "Chang Hong, what are you doing here? What happened with that servant girl?"

Wei Chang Hong said, "That servant girl tripped and I happened to catch her, so she wanted to give me a handkerchief." When he said up to this point, he was already very clear about her intentions. He faintly furrowed his eyebrows and said, "I didn't accept it and told her stay within the boundaries of her position."

Wei Luo hadn't expected that fourth aunt would have a servant girl like this. Wei Luo wasn't happy. Wei Chang Hong was definitely outstanding, but not just anyone could cling to him as a way to improve their social standing. That servant girl's courage wasn't small. She dared to focus her attentions on a younger master from a duke family. She said, "I'll tell fourth aunt about this matter, so don't concern yourself with this matter. If something like this happens again, handle it the same way as today."

Wei Chang Hong nodded and walked with her towards the main room.

Wei Luo suddenly thought of something important. She turned her head and asked, "Chang Hong, has daddy started looking for a marriage partner for you?"

Wei Chang Hong's footstep froze for a moment, but he quickly caught up to her, "He has."

Wei Luo asked with great interest, "Do you know which families he's look at? Did he bring you over to look?" She stopped at the verandah outside of the main room and grabbed Chang Hong's sleeve, "Do you have a girl that you like?"

Wei Chang Hong also stopped walking. After thinking for a while, he finally said, "Fourth aunt looked at the girls from Marquis An Ling's household for me." He looked at Wei Luo before saying, "I didn't like them, so I asked father to refuse."

Wei Luo asked, "Why? Are the girls from that family not good?"

Wei Chang Hong said, "It's not that. I just don't want to marry them."

Perhaps, it wasn't meant to be. Wei Luo knew that this matter couldn't be rushed or forced, so she was very open-minded. "Then tell me, what type of girl do you like?"

Wei Chang Hong didn't immediately reply. He gaze shifted to look at something behind Wei Luo. When he looked at Wei Luo again, there was a hint of a smile in his eyes, "Naturally, it's someone that's similar to Ah Luo."

Wei Luo didn't notice his strangeness and only thought he was joking. She didn't take his words seriously at all.

However, as soon as she turned, she saw that Zhao Jie was standing at the doorway. There was a smile at the corner of his mouth as he asked word by word, "Ah Luo, where did you go?"
