Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The youth who held Qiao Wenjuan was none other than the husband she was going to marry in September, Third Junior Wei.
Wei Clan Village was not too far from Qiaotou Village, with only a Fang Clan Village in between them, but they led wealthier lives than Qiaotou Village.
When Elderly Lady Qiao set up this betrothal for Qiao Wenjuan back then, she was very satisfied.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, Qiao Wenjuan herself was dissatisfied. She felt like the Wei Family had three sons, and she was marrying the youngest son, so after she married into the family, not only would she have to listen to her old mother-in-law’s nagging but might also be bullied and repressed by her older sisters-in-law.
Moreover, the old madam of the Wei Family, Madam née Niu, had a shrewd and ill-disposed character, so she was always the one who schemed against other people. Ever since her two daughters-in-law married into the family, they had been tightly controlled by her and were tamed.
How could Qiao Wenjuan be satisfied with a family like that? She had always been snobbish and what she desired the most was to marry into the city and become the rich and esteemed wife of a young master.
Unfortunately, her fate was full of trouble and misfortune. After being heartlessly abandoned by her family, she encountered this crazy family in her escape for her life.
The exact night that the old hag of the Wei Family, Madam née Niu, encountered Qiao Wenjuan, she waved her hand and made the incontestable decision to let the two young ones pay their respects to the heaven and earth and get married. She straightly told her that they would only escape to Xijiu City with her in tow if she became a member of the Wei Family.
That night, with the heavens as the roof and the earth as the floor, without any cover, the impatient Third Junior Wei held their wedding night in advance.
This whole way, Qiao Wenjuan had been dramatically lamenting about her unfortunate fate. She combed her hair into the bun of a married woman and followed the Wei Family to Xijiu City with a numb expression.
Everyone from the Wei Family jumped down from the donkey cart and boisterously jostled to the city gate.
Currently, the farce of Young Master Liu smashing open the city gate had turned more intense. The guards stationed at the city gate had hastily sprinted toward the City Lord’s Estate to report it.
The two body cultivators appeared on the city gate tower again and looked down at the ground with an apathetic expression. “The people down there, if you impetuously try to destroy the city gate again, don’t blame us for taking severe actions!”
“Young Master Liu!” Wen Ruwan opened the curtain and gently called.
Young Master Liu was too brash. Wen Ruwan uncontrollably knitted her brows. She wanted to enter the city, not cause a disturbance. Now that the commotion had grown so big, how will they wind it down?

The second he finished speaking, a row of city guards rushed onto the city gate tower holding bows and arrows and sternly pointed their arrows at the people from the Liu Estate.
“What-what are you doing???” Young Master Liu’s voice distorted from fright.
He really did not expect that not only would he be blocked outside of the city when he returned to the estate after going on an excursion outside for a few days, but that he would also be on the receiving end of arrows. Where did these people get such guts!
“Wen Ruwan!” Qiao Wenjuan spotted the slim woman sitting inside the carriage instantly.
When Wen Ruwan looked up and saw her, she sized up the woman in ragged clothes with a married-woman hairstyle, and her lips involuntarily turned up with a secretive smile, “Oh, it’s Cousin Wenjuan! Why do you look like this after a few days?”
Wen Ruwan ignored Qiao Wenjuan’s livid face and covered her mouth with her dainty and fair hand, exclaiming with false surprise, “Ah! Cousin Wenjuan, why are you dressed up like a married woman? I remember your wedding date is in September!”
At the same time, Qiao Mu was startled awake from her dreamland and shot open her eyes, coolly looking at the muslin veil above her.
She sat up and turned to listen. She could hear a clamorous racket erupting in the City Lord’s Estate, half a street away. It seemed like the City Lord’s Estate appointed people to leave this late at night.
