Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 352 - 351: Finding a Husband

After several encounters before, she had already outdone her brother.

She shamelessly mocked: Oh, who would’ve thought that the Cloud Envoy from the Imperial Palace is just so-so? Alas, what to do if my martial arts are better than my brother’s? What a dilemma~

Ye Lin was fuming, but it was a fact that he lost to his sister’s spear technique, which made him gnash his teeth in anger.

Now that there’s an opportunity, he would definitely taunt her in return and add some revenge.

He continued, "Mother, didn’t you say you would teach Ah Zhi a lesson? I think we should use the family rules, otherwise how can a little girl be kept in check later? What kind of husband would want a woman like this? It might even be difficult for her to find a husband in the future, don’t you think?"

Finding a husband.

Those three words struck a chord with Ye Family, their little daughter had yet to be betrothed; behaving so boldly, wandering around like a vagabond, without even bringing a guard, it was simply unreasonable. Just as she was about to command Ah Zhi to kneel in the ancestral hall, another person spoke up ahead of her.

"Aunt Ye, this is my fault, I shouldn’t have informed her of my arrival time to the Capital City in the letter. If there’s punishment, let it be mine alone, I’m willing to take Ah Zhi’s punishment."

A voice as gentle as jade chimed in—it was Shen Chen.

And it drew everyone’s attention.

The Ye family couple finally had the time to properly look at the young man before them.

His pair of amber-like eyes seemed to pull people into a whirlpool, wearing a robe with dark green patterns, his figure was thin yet stood as straight as bamboo.

If there were any changes compared to four years ago, it was that he had grown taller, more handsome and steady, making him more convincing.

Ye Family is someone who distinguishes clearly between kindness and resentment. She was clear about what kind of person Shen Chen was. "Don’t meddle, Ah Zhi was at fault this time. You definitely wouldn’t have let her go alone to find you. Stay out of this matter."

Lu He stepped forward: "Aunt Ye, your kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain; there are thousands and thousands of reasons, it’s all my fault. Don’t blame Ah Zhi, she’s still young."

Ye Zhi stepped forward, the petite maiden pushed Sister Lu He behind her: "Mother, it’s my fault."

For a while, everyone was taking the blame upon themselves.

Many in the hall were confessing to various faults~

A clear female voice broke the mutual pushing of blame.

"Ah Zhi, are you back? Qinglian and I came to see you."

Before arriving, the voice was already present.

Under the ancient eaves, two slender young girls slowly approached.

It was Qinglian and Huanhuan. As soon as the two arrived at the front hall, the little friends meeting were all overjoyed.

Huanhuan pulled Ye Zhi to turn her around, and after confirming she wasn’t hurt, patted her small chest and said: "Ah Zhi, you’re back, I told you it’s perfectly normal to go out into the world for training. Aunt Ye just wouldn’t believe, thought you would get into some trouble, and I’ve been laughing at her for worrying. Now she finally sees."

Ye Zhi’s suspicious eyes looked toward her mother: Really? I heard you’ve been hoping something would happen to me? 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Ye Family was embarrassed being called out so bluntly, her face reddened, looking around but not daring to meet her daughter’s eyes.

Father Ye took the chance to speak for his wife: "Your mother was just worried for you, it’s good that you’ve returned safe and sound."

Thanks to Huanhuan’s intervention, Ye Family, feeling guilty, did not further punish their little daughter.

The most discontented was Ye Lin, who whispered something about not letting his sister off.

In the end, Lord Minister used his authority as a government official, gave him a cold glance, and only then did he begrudgingly fall silent.
