Seeing how serious Baili Zhentao looked, Su Wanjing didn’t dare to ask any further. She turned and said, “Lord, no matter what, you need to get revenge for Haoxuan!”
That was what had originally made Baili Zhentao worry so much. Now that he heard Su Wanjing mention it again, for some reason, his heart felt incredibly annoyed.
“His skill was inferior to the person who hit him, and now you want me to accompany him in losing face!”
Baili Zhentao flew into a rage before pointing his finger in Baili Yuyan, his voice furious “Know your place a little and don’t go leave the household to cause trouble again! You can’t bother Baili Hongzhuang again, understand?”
Baili Yuyan looked at Baili Zhentao, stunned. Why would father suddenly protect Baili Hongzhuang?
Su Wanjing was also stunned. Last night, he had clearly said that he’d teach Baili Hongzhuang a lesson she wouldn’t forget.
How did his attitude turn a complete 180 from last night?
After his wound was dressed, Baili Zhentao left. Today really made him worry!
The sunlight was golden, shining brightly. It was a fine, spring day.
When Baili Hongzhuang left her room, she suddenly found that Jingli Garden had changed greatly. The maids and manservants shuttled around the estate, she almost even thought she was in the wrong place!
Her face was stiff as she walked around. Looking at the familiar peach blossom forest, Baili Hongzhuang knew she wasn’t at the wrong place and immediately walked over to Jingli Garden’s gates.
“Congratulations to Lady Baili!”
“Congratulations to Lady Baili!”
When they saw Baili Hongzhuang come out, the maids and manservants immediately started to bow and congratulate her.
The look on Baili Hongzhuang’s face was strange. She didn’t know what was wrong with these people.
Then she saw the red lanterns being raised high into the air. The usual peaceful calm in Jingli Garden turned bright and festive.
Outside the gates, the carriages were constantly unloading items. Watching the scene that was full or red, 2 words instantly popped up in Baili Hongzhuang’ mind- Dowry!
Sure enough, Dibei Chen popped up in front of her, “Wifey, are you satisfied with your hubby’s dowry?”
Looking at the piles of gifts in front of the gates, a smile appeared on Baili Hongzhuang’s lips. “Just barely.
The betrothal gifts were extremely extravagant compared to other women when they married. Even when a Royal Prince married, there’d still only be half as much!
‘“Just barely enough?” Dibei Chen pretended to frown, “Turn around and take a look.”
Although Baili Hongzhuang was confused, she still turned her head. She didn’t understand just what Dibei Chen wanted her to see.
“Master, look, look! The name plaque changed!”
Baili Hongzhuang raised her eyes to look at the signboard, and discovered that the 3 characters, Jingli Garden, had been replaced at some unknown time to qinzhuang Garden!
“Wifey, this is also one of the betrothal gifts.” Dibei Chen said with a smile.
The loud noises had already attracted many people. At first, many people were skeptical when they saw Dibei Chen bringing the betrothal gifts to Jingli Garden. Didn’t the Emperor marry Dibei Chen to Baili Hongzhuang?
However, Dibei Chen didn’t bring the betrothal gifts to the General’s Household, but instead here. It was just too strange!
But when everyone saw Baili Hongzhuang come out of qinzhuang garden, everybody instantly had a flash of understanding. So Baili Hongzhuang was living here!
“Prince Chen’s betrothal gifts are so generous, it’s much more than the other Prince’s gifts!” One person exclaimed.
Other royal marriages were also very lavish, making others feel amazed. But none of them could compare to Dibei Chen’s astonishing betrothal gifts.
note- Qinzhuang takes the zhuang from Hongzhuang’s name, and qin means to marry.
Can’t Waite for this chapter.😍
Wahhh soo excited !!
Thank you for your hardwork 🙂
WAITING WAITING WAAAAAAAAITIIIIIIING
Thank You!!!😍
Other series *deleted* around for 2000 chapters. This one goes straight to it.
uhhhh language okay?
Oh My!! Are they gonna get married now? I’m so excited!😊
Haha I can’t wait to see her fathers reaction xD
⊂((・▽・))⊃ the dowry is here \o/
I wonder how the general will act about this…. kekeke
Thank you for the chapters (￣▽+￣*) fufu
What does jingli mean? And Qinzhaung?
Using googlefu I found the hantrainerpro website for
jingli = manager
and my guess is Qinzhaung that should be broken up as follows.
Qin, relative
zha, explode
ung, help
Note that that is my interpretation based on the English not the Chinese characters. And seeing that that website also indicates that qin can mean marriage,
(to) kiss,
parents,
intimate
The same goes for the other two characters, there are nicer translations so to speak.
So is most likely an official meaning. While the one I fished out is just coincidental and based on what the rest of the Baili family would like to do if they hear about this.
Note that this is based on the assumption that they did not replace characters one for one or you’d end up with
Qin (see above)
zhaung -> to act (the part of),(to) pretend (to be).
Which would be just plain brazen as announcement.
oops, I probably should;ve added that in. Jingli was actually a really dumb pun by the author made a few chapters back (i ended up wasting more than a hour and still didn’t get it haha). it means a garden of sceneries. Qinzhuang is a pun on Baili Hongzhuang’s name and takes the character, Zhuang.
Kiki it is not just that.
They are doing a scam marriage (as said in next chapter).
The renaming blatantly tells the world that.
No, I made a typo in the chapter :(. You used zhaung (which was my typo), when it was really zhuang. It was my mistake for typing wrongly. Also, zhuang itself can mean makeup, adornments, or trousseaus. Qin is marriage though!
Ah. Thank you.
Still first time I ever bothered to look up Chinese characters. Never knew it could be this hard on the translators. I mean context dependent translation and all that. So thank you for the hard work.
Thank you for the new chapter 😀
Too sweet!
If you have it, you better flaunt it…
Keep it going, Dibei Chen
Alright! I give 10/10 points for Dibei Chen! Thanks for the chapter desu~
How sweet!!!
So sweet! This got me smiling like an idiot out in public xD! But awesome!
Thanks for the chapter!
Thank you for the chapter!!!! I’m so glad they’re marrying yay !
The retardation of Yuyan is hilarious.
Say you stuck your tongue into the electrical socket and got zapped. Your dad tells you “don’t put your tongue in the electrical socket”. Yuyan’s first thought is “why is daddy protecting the electrical socket?”
Girl, he’s not trying to save the electrical socket, he’s trying to stop you from killing yourself. Though at this point maybe he should let her undergo that electrical shock therapy, hoping that she’ll suddenly become a genius.
XD OMG loved that comparison!
This is perfect way to explain Yuyan’s mindset . She is really dense.
Honestly, that’s a perfect way to describe 99/100 female antagonists in C-novels XD
The other 1/100 is “You took my man! He’s obviously brain-dead and has no will of his own so it’s obviously all your fault as a sentient MC! Now I shall kill you to avenge my non-existent enmity!”
LOL that’s spot on! These antagonists can be so stupid…
“(To) marry Hongzguang”
Awww really sweet XD
Thanks!
Thanks for the chapter!
i love the pacing in their relationship
