Chapter 50:

Wei Shao is only half a stones throw away. Wei Yan drove his horse to meet him and said in a loud voice: Second brother, coincidentally, I just came back from a hunting trip, and we met here!

Wei Shao had seen Wei Yan and his group. He slowly stopped in the middle of the road, two large horses crossed heads, and his face revealed a smile: How was the hunt today?

Second brother, see for yourself!

Wei Yan turned his head and pointed at the prey dangling from the side of the horses behind him.

Wei Shao took a look and praised: Its a good harvest!

Wei Yan laughed: Second brother if you have time, come back to my house. We brothers drink to the fullest with wild meat accompanying the wine. I think it will boost the wine!

Wei Shao said: Just what I want!

While talking, his two eyes swept to Qiao Ci behind Wei Yan.

Qiao Ci was sitting frozen on his horse, listening to Wei Yan and the young mans conversation. He was stunned and guessed the person should be the Marquis of Yan, Wei Shao, his brother-in-law. Although he smiles when talking, his gaze towards him is without a feeling of a smile. He hurriedly turned off the horse and stood on the ground.

Wei Yan followed Wei Shaos gaze and turned his head, then laughed: He is sister-in-laws brother, Yanzhous Qiao family grandson, your brother-in-law. These two days you happened to be out of town, so Grandmother asked me to take him for a stroll. We just came from a hunting trip in Mount Yu and bumped into you.

When Wei Yan spoke, Qiao Ci saw Wei Shaos gaze had been looking at him coldly. He could not help but remember his sisters advice. His brother-in-law was serious and aloof. Now he saw it himself and felt it was right. His attitude became formal. He stepped forward with hesitation towards Wei Shao, saluted, and called him brother-in-law. Then, no more words, standing there motionless.

At four, Wei Shao began to follow his fathers practice. His archery skill is excellent, and his eyesight is like a falcon. He saw Wei Yan come side by side with this young man from afar. He saw his face and eyebrows resembling Xiao Qiaos and immediately guessed that he was his wifes brother, Qiao Ci, who had arrived.

In Wei Shaos mind, he was not looking forward to the Yanzhou emissarys trip north but was annoyed by it.

In his subconscious, he did not want to deal with any Qiao family members other than Xiao Qiao.

But this is only a thought. After all, whether for Grandmothers order or the use of Yanzhous geography, he had married Qiao girl. No one was holding a sword to his neck at the wedding. But at least for the time being, he could not completely break the line with the Qiao family.

A few days ago, when the Yanzhou group was about to arrive in Yuyang, the news came from Zhuo County that there had been an accident, and he needed to go there personally as soon as possible. He left, as a matter of course, and without any psychological pressure, to do what he felt was more important.

In the study the night before he left, he told Xiao Qiao the news. He did not fail to notice the disappointment that passed through her bright eyes.

At that time, he did hesitate. He thought about whether to explain or not. But the hesitation passed in a flash.

He did not care and did not feel the need to explain anything to her about this coincidence.

Then he went to Zhuo County. Everything was fine during the day on the first day. But at night, somehow, as soon as he closed his eyes, his mind always returned to her disappointed eyes looking at him and the way she smiled at him at the end. His heart seems to be a little empty. It is hard to sleep alone.

Last night, when he had the hardest time sleeping, he got up and went out. He went for a ride outside alone and returned in the middle of the night. When he pushed the door in, he saw an extra beauty in the bed. The newly promoted Zhuo County Magistrate was quite courteous and sent her to his room after he left.

Wei Shao used to be called Little King. Except for his violent behavior, he turned his face faster than turn the book. He came in and stared at the beauty lying on his bed. He was furious on the spot, drew out his saber, and cut off the bedpost with a single stroke of the sword. And the beauty falls off the bed. The scared beauty screamed repeatedly, rolled, and crawled out of the house.

Early this morning, Wei Shao removed that ass-kissing magistrate. He hurriedly concluded the matter and immediately set out to return. Unexpectedly, he met his wifes brother here. He looked at him and Wei Yan side by side rode intimately. They joked and laughed. When he saw him, he became rusty. His lungs inexplicably like being poked, and his face is unpleasant. He did not dismount, only nodding slightly to Qiao Ci, asked: When did you come?

Yesterday at noon.

Qiao Ci responded. He thought his sister was indeed right. This brother-in-law is indeed high and mighty, arrogant and unapproachable, different from cousin Wei. Fortunately, his sister advised him in advance. Otherwise, he wouldnt know about it and loathe by him.

He thought it must be difficult for his sister to live with such a man.

Xiao Qiao followed Mrs. Xu to the Golden Dragon Temple in the north of the city early in the morning.

During these chaotic times, Buddhism, Taoism, and even witchcraft and immortality flourished like never before. The Golden Dragon Temples ceremony lasted from morning to evening, and many men and women listened to the lectures religiously. Throughout the day, even though there was a small break at noon, not to mention Mrs. Zhus heart wasnt in it, Xiao Qiao was feeling overwhelmed.

She quietly glanced at Mrs. Xu beside her. She found she was concentrating, or at worst, she did not show any fatigue.

When the ceremony was over, Mrs. Xu offered incense oil sent out by the Buddhist monk, and then she returned to the Wei residence.

After a days stay outside, Xiao Qiao changed her outer clothes and sat on the dressing table to clean her face and remove her make-up. She was unwrapping her bun when the door behind her was pushed open. She turned her head to see Wei Shao enter.

She did not show any other expression. Because her bun was only half removed, she did not get up but only smiled and said in her usual tone: Husband is back? I will serve you to change your clothes later.

Wei Shao walked in and stopped a few steps behind her. His eyes fell on her face reflected in the bronze mirror, and he flicked his hand. A few of the maids surrounding Xiao Qiao got up, bowed to Wei Shao, and then left the room.

Wei Shao came behind Xiao Qiao, sat down, and lifted his hand to pull out a gold-hooked hairpin from her hair.

The hair immediately fell like a waterfall, and Wei Shaos other palm spread out to catch it, cupping a bunch of smooth silk hair in his palm and slowly rubbing it a few times.

Wei Shaos body is tall and majestic. The two of them are sitting together like this, and he is half a head taller than her.

Xiao Qiao did not turn around, nor did she move, but only raised her eyes and looked at the bronze mirror that illuminated Wei Shao sitting behind her.

The bronze mirror is polished and smooth as water, clearly illuminating two faces, one in front and one behind, even his eyebrows.

Wei Shao took the hair from his palm to his nose and sniffed. His lips attached to her ear and whispered, I came back in the evening. I set up a banquet to receive your brother.

Xiao Qiao lowered her eyes. Gently murmured, I already know when I come back.

Wei Shaos hands held both sides of her waist and turned her around like a doll, making her face him. He lowered his head, touched his lips to her forehead, and slowly moved down.

His lips were slightly dry, touching her soft cheeks that had been moistened with water, bringing a rough feeling.

He put her arms on his shoulders, gazed into her eyes, and ordered her to hug his neck tightly.

Xiao Qiaos eyelashes twitched slightly, and she closed her eyes.

Her body was light and picked up by him in the air.

It was only two nights apart.

But Xiao Qiao felt his eagerness. It was as if a long time since he had touched her.

The way he moved was different from the previous one. He seemed to have a bit of pleasant meaning tonight. Although she could feel his eagerness, he not forcibly combined with her. He slowly teased her until she flushed. Then he wanted her.

During the process, Xiao Qiao closed her eyes most of the time. She felt a little dizzy, but her body was very comfortable. In the end, as if warm water flowed, she slightly shivered, and her toes curled up.

It could be said this was the best she had felt since she married him.
