Chapter 459 I Will Treat You Well Too
After discussion, Shen Fuyou and Xie Yan's wedding date was set for April 12th.
Three months of preparation time is enough.
However, since Wen Jiayue was still in mourning, the arrangements for this event were ostensibly handed over to Shen Funian.
For convenience, Shen Funian simply took Shen Chengyao back to the Marquis's residence.
Two days later, Xiao Suye also moved in, ostensibly to teach Yao'er martial arts.
Shen Funian went to Wen Jiayue to complain: "He can't even come up with a decent excuse. With his mediocre skills, Yao'er would be better off teaching him."
Wen Jiayue chuckled: "No one's going to investigate whether it's true or not, and besides, my brother-in-law is the son of a general, so he'll definitely be skilled in martial arts."
“No, I just can’t stand him,” Shen Funian pouted. “He’s so annoying.”
Wen Jiayue sensed something was amiss and asked in surprise, "Did you two have a fight?"
“I can’t be bothered arguing with him,” Shen Funian rolled her eyes. “Let him worry about Consort Yun in the palace.”
"So it's because you think he doesn't spend enough time with you," Wen Jiayue said with a smile. "When your older brother comes back, I'll have him have a good talk with your brother-in-law."
Shen Funian said awkwardly, "Don't tell! I want to see when he'll find out!"
Wen Jiayue outwardly agreed, but secretly told Shen Fuhan about it.
"Has my brother-in-law been spending a lot of time in the palace these days? I've never heard Niannian complain about this before."
Shen Fuhan explained, "The Emperor wants Consort Yun to conceive an heir, so he ordered him to take good care of Consort Yun's health as soon as possible."
Wen Jiayue nodded and said, "If it's the same as in the previous life, Yun Jieyu is only a few months away from getting pregnant, so she should indeed take good care of herself."
In my past life, Yunxi was pregnant this June.
Shen Fuhan asked, "What was the result?"
After saying this, he recalled the dream he had when he resigned from his official post, which seemed to suggest that an important person had left the emperor.
At the time, he thought it was Li Zhilan, but now that he thinks about it, it might also be Yun Jieyu.
Consort Yun is now the emperor's favorite, and the other concubines can't even see him.
Sure enough, Wen Jiayue said, "In her previous life, my brother-in-law did not become a royal physician, and Consort Yun's health was always poor, so she and her unborn child died. The emperor was extremely saddened and killed many people."
Thinking back on it now, she still feels a lingering fear.
Shen Fuhan said seriously, "Let's go to Chang Le Academy."
Seeing the two of them approach, Shen Funian quickly pulled Wen Jiayue aside.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't tell my older brother about this? You lied to me!"
Wen Jiayue casually said, "It was your older brother who figured it out himself. I couldn't persuade him otherwise, so I had to tell him."
“Alright then,” Shen Funian said, “If you start arguing later, remember to take my side.”
Wen Jiayue was somewhat helpless. How could they possibly start arguing?
Two men were talking nearby.
Once Shen Fuhan was certain that Yun Jieyu's body would fully recover in just two months, he felt relieved.
Xiao Suye asked, "Why is Brother Yun suddenly so concerned about Consort Yun? Aren't you afraid Sister-in-law will be jealous?"
“It’s your wife who’s jealous,” Shen Fuhan pointed out. “You’ve been leaving early and coming home late these past few days, neglecting her.”
Xiao Suye asked in bewilderment, "But I feel like I spend about the same amount of time with her as before."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a sound of retching came from behind him.
The two looked over at the same time and saw Wen Jiayue patting Shen Funian's back anxiously.
She asked worriedly, "Did you eat something bad?"
Shen Funian calmed herself down and asked doubtfully, "I don't think so?"
Another guess suddenly popped into Xiao Suye's mind. He hurriedly went over and grabbed Shen Funian's wrist.
Shen Funian found him annoying and shook him off without thinking, letting out a snort.
"Niannian, stop fooling around," Xiao Suye coaxed her. "You might be pregnant."
Without a second thought, Shen Funian retorted, "What do you have...?"
She could no longer resist and stared blankly as Xiao Suyue took her pulse.
His voice was firm, yet trembled slightly.
"She's pregnant. Niannian, our second child is coming."
Wen Jiayue and Shen Fuhan exchanged a glance, congratulated each other, and then quietly slipped away.
“So Niannian’s emotional instability was because she was pregnant,” Wen Jiayue laughed. “I thought my brother-in-law had really done something wrong.”
Shen Fuhan responded absentmindedly.
"What's wrong with you?" Wen Jiayue asked with a smile. "Are you pregnant?"
Shen Fuhan squeezed her hand: "I just feel more and more that Wen Xingzong died at the worst possible time."
Wen Jiayue glared at him, saying he was just spouting nonsense.
After her initial joy, Wen Jiayue was troubled again.
Shen Funian is pregnant and should focus on resting during her pregnancy. She is also in mourning and cannot interfere openly. Who will take care of her fourth brother's wedding banquet?
Unexpectedly, Shen Funian resumed the preparations in a flurry of activity the next day.
Seeing her pacing back and forth without a moment's rest, Wen Jiayue said worriedly, "Be careful of the baby in your belly."
“What’s there to be afraid of?” Shen Funian said dismissively. “If you can’t even withstand this little risk, you don’t deserve to be my child.”
Wen Jiayue: "..."
Although it sounds strange at first, upon closer inspection, it seems to make a lot of sense.
After a month of such busy work, the wedding banquet arrangements are beginning to take shape.
Shen Fuyou was able to free up her hands and focus on preparing for the wedding banquet.
Wen Jiayue stopped keeping an eye on things and instead started preparing Ruyi's dowry.
Ruyi's wedding date is set for the end of February, which is just around the corner.
On the eve of her wedding, Wen Jiayue, as usual, handed the fire-avoidance diagram to Ruyi.
Ruyi blushed and glanced at it twice before putting it away.
"You're newlyweds, so you don't need to come and serve me these next few days. Spend more time with Changsheng," Wen Jiayue instructed. "Remember?"
Ruyi nodded, then hesitated, "I'm just worried that the other maids won't serve me as well as they would like..."
"Don't worry about me. Do you think I'd suffer?" Wen Jiayue laughed. "When you and Changsheng come together, I'll arrange a job for him."
Ruyi curtsied and said, "Thank you, Madam."
After a moment's hesitation, Ruyi said, "While I am away, I hope that Madam will choose a personal maid."
Wen Jiayue asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"
She said directly, "Even if you get married, the position of your personal maid will still be yours. You don't need to give it up to someone else."
“Of course I know that you are good to me, Madam,” Ruyi said with a smile. “But after we get married, I will get pregnant sooner or later, and it will be too late to find someone then.”
Wen Jiayue thought about it and agreed.
She assured him, "But don't worry, no one can get past you."
Ruyi smiled through her tears: "This servant knows that Madam is the best to this servant."
Wen Jiayue almost burst into tears as well. Her voice choked with emotion, she said, "Of course I'll treat you well. If Changsheng treats you badly after we get married, just come to me and I'll definitely teach him a lesson."
She stood up: "Alright, you have to get up early tomorrow, I'll be going now."
Wen Jiayue hurriedly got up and left.
Shen Fuhan was waiting outside. When he saw her come out with red eyes, he hugged her.
He said in a low voice, "If you want to cry, then cry."
"I won't cry," Wen Jiayue wiped her tears on his shoulder. "Ruyi's marriage is a good thing, Changsheng will treat her well."
Shen Fuhan gently kissed the top of her head and said in a deep voice, "I will treat you well too."
Wen Jiayue pushed him away and said seriously, "Words are meaningless. I won't believe your sweet talk."
"Okay, I'll show you after we get back to the room."
Wen Jiayue: "...?"
