After saying this, Wei Tingyu took Shouhua's hand and turned to walk down the bridge. Fourth Sister Haode and Fifth Sister Leshan glared fiercely at Yang Xian, who was curled up in a ball, and then followed Wei Tingyu down the bridge.
"Brother-in-law! How did you do that? You just fanned this big bad guy and he fell down!" Of course, Si Niang couldn't help but ask after catching up with Wei Tingyu.
"Brother-in-law, please teach me! Please!" Wu Niang Le Shan was even simpler; she didn't want to know how Wei Tingyu did it, she just wanted to learn this trick.
Yang Xian glared fiercely at Wei Tingyu's back, watching him holding Shouhua's hand while the two little girls, Haode and Leshan, chattered and fawned over him!
This good fortune made him so jealous his eyes turned red!
Good heavens! Wei Tingyu is really lucky with women!
Especially seeing the attitude and distance between Fourth Sister Haode and Fifth Sister Leshan towards Wei Tingyu, even a fool could see that the two girls had also taken a liking to their brother-in-law!
Why should he get such a good sister?
Yang Xian swallowed hard, completely forgetting Wei Tingyu's final advice to him.
"Young Master! Hurry up and put these on!" At this moment, the two scoundrels who had been thrown into the river earlier finally climbed out. Seeing Yang Xian's current state, they didn't care that their own clothes were still wet and immediately took them off and draped them over him.
At this moment, Yang Xian realized that he was still naked and being mocked by the onlookers. After putting on Xiao Ci's clothes, he quickly fled the stone bridge with the help of the two men.
"I, Yang Xian, have always been the one bullying others!"
"The Marquis of Jining! The Li family!"
"I remember you!"
Of course, this scoundrel, who couldn't change his ways, was running away with his head down while simultaneously thinking fiercely to himself.
……
"At that time, I saw it from afar..."
"With a wave of his folding fan, that young master Yang collapsed to the ground with a thud!"
"When he got up again, he was a ridiculous sight with a bruised and swollen face, and everyone around him burst into laughter!"
"In my opinion, this young master Yang has really lost face this time! I guarantee he'll behave himself from now on and never dare to bully men and women again!"
As night fell, in the back courtyard of Sifuzhai, the Li family mother and daughters sat around the table, eating their dinner while listening to Xiao Wu Leshan vividly recount the day's events.
The eldest aunt, Shouhua, and the second aunt, Fuhui, were also present. Because of what had happened during the day, Wei Tingyu had specially allowed them to return to their parents' home tonight to stay with their mother and sisters.
Of course, for safety reasons, four additional Golden Shadow Guards were added to protect the Li family's Four Blessings Hall!
Those who were not present at the time, including Erniang Fu Hui, Li Niangzi, and Qiong Nu, all had their eyes sparkling as they listened to this scene.
Especially after hearing that Wei Tingyu had taught that纨绔 (spoiled brat) Yang Yanei a lesson with great power and without making a sound, everyone was overjoyed. After all, they loved hearing stories like this!
Even Li Niangzi was no exception; as she listened to her daughter's story, her eyes grew brighter and brighter!
"Oh my! My good son-in-law has such abilities?! I really didn't expect it!"
After listening to Le Shan's description, Li Niangzi smiled and said while gently waving her fan.
She only knew that Wei Tingyu held a high rank, which gave him considerable prestige in the capital.
I never expected that his martial arts skills would be so high. No wonder my best friend Wang Yingxue disregarded worldly conventions and fell directly into Wei Tingyu's arms!
"Oh no! Something's not right?" Li Niangzi suddenly shuddered, frowned slightly, and cursed herself inwardly.
Why did I suddenly think of Wang Yingxue's best friend? It's so inappropriate! So inappropriate!
"Me too! Me too! I helped teach that young master Yang a lesson too!" Fourth Sister, Haode, quickly raised her hand, somewhat boastfully telling her sisters and mother, "I even paid to hire those little beggars!"
“But this idea was mine!” Wu Niang Le Shan immediately objected.
"I thought of that too, but you said it before I did!" Hao De was naturally unwilling to admit defeat in front of his sister.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing! You both deserve credit!" Aunt Shouhua shook her head and said with a smile.
Now her behavior is becoming more and more dignified and quiet. Sitting next to Li Niangzi, she has quite an air about her. She and her mother are like two versions of the matriarch!
It has to be said that girls really do mature immediately after they become real women!
"Xiao Wu! What new hairstyle are you wearing?" At this moment, Third Sister Kang Ning focused her attention on Le Shan's forehead.
On her smooth forehead, four dazzling colored beads were set in the center, forming a perfect rhombus.
It looks quite novel and is also very beautiful!
As soon as Kang Ning said this, all the women present turned their attention to Le Shan's face, and their eyes showed curiosity and inquiry, especially the eldest aunt Shou Hua and the second aunt Fu Hui!
The two of them are now concubines in the Marquis's mansion. Although they have no intention of competing for favor with the other ladies and concubines, seeing all the beautiful women in the mansion, they naturally feel unwilling to be outdone.
The fifth sister's makeup was quite novel, immediately piquing the interest of the two girls.
"I heard that Consort Shang and Consort Yang are the most favored in the palace!" Xiao Wu Leshan said smugly when she saw her mother and sisters looking at her and she became the center of attention. "They're competing with each other openly and secretly!"
"Shang Meiren loves making pearl-embellished dresses the most!"
"It's quite fashionable in the city lately!"
Leshan smiled sweetly as she spoke, gently raising her delicate arm in a gesture reminiscent of a beautiful woman lifting a curtain, revealing what she considered her perfect profile as she looked at her mother and sisters and asked, "How is it? Does it look good?"
Seeing the little girl's adorable appearance, her older sisters and Li Niangzi all smiled from the bottom of their hearts.
Instead, Si Niang Haode, who was sitting next to him, grabbed Le Shan's hand and asked, "Tell me! Where did you find such a fine pearl?"
Upon hearing this, Leshan immediately turned her head away and refused to answer her fourth sister's question, adopting a "I'm not telling you" attitude.
Seeing this, Fourth Sister Haode immediately objected and turned to Li Niangzi, pleading, "Mother! You've been secretly giving her money again, I want some too!"
Li Niangzi was stunned when she heard this, then smiled helplessly.
Because she knew in her heart that she had not subsidized her fifth daughter, and that she hadn't bought the pearl for her with her own money!
"I'll pluck it off for you!" Fourth Sister became even more anxious when she saw that her mother didn't speak, and turned her head to reach out and pluck the pearl from Le Shan's forehead.
Of course, Leshan was not happy, and the two girls started bickering and playing around again!
"Alright, alright! Stop fooling around!" At this moment, the second aunt, Fu Hui, spoke up. Her behavior was now imitating her mother and eldest sister, so she waved her fan and put on the air of a mature lady, smiling as she said, "Fifth sister, where did you get these pearls?"
"Yes..." After hearing her second sister's words, Fifth Sister Le Shan could only shrink back and then said shyly, "My brother-in-law gave it to me... a..."
After she finished speaking, her face immediately turned red with embarrassment.
"Oh!" Upon hearing this question, Li Niangzi, her eldest aunt Shouhua, and her second aunt Fuhui finally felt relieved.

Chapter 131 A gift from brother-in-law to sister-in-law? Mother and daughter are both happy!
So, my little Wu didn't steal or rob, nor did he accept gifts from others. Then there's no problem!
As for the fact that it was given by Wei Tingyu, then there's absolutely no problem! Anyway, he's one of my men, so it's fine if he gave it to me!
"That's not right!" Fourth Sister Haode blinked and said, "When did your brother-in-law give you pearls? How come I didn't know?"
"Could it be that you said you wanted to teach that young master Yang a lesson again during the day, so you swiped it from him?"
When Fourth Sister said this, everyone present was stunned for a moment, especially Li Niangzi, who looked at Fifth Sister with a questioning look in her eyes.
"Xiao Wu! You took someone else's things?" Li Niangzi was always very strict with her family, and she absolutely could not tolerate her daughter's petty theft.
Therefore, the tone of this question was quite stern!
"I..." Fifth Sister blinked, then her little eyes darted around before she said directly, "So what if I took it?"
"That so-called Young Master Yang bullies men and women, daring to harass respectable women in broad daylight!"
"Even if I took his things, I would only punish him slightly!"
"You..." Upon hearing Leshan's words, her sisters and mother all sighed helplessly.
"He did something wrong because of his poor character!" Aunt Shouhua earnestly lectured her fifth sister, "But if you steal his things, then it's your fault!"
"Mother! Look what my eldest sister said about me!" Wu Niang Leshan immediately objected upon hearing this and turned to Li Niangzi to whine.
“Your eldest sister is right!” However, Lady Li did not indulge her daughter. Instead, she frowned and said, “Although these pearls are not large, they look bright and dazzling. They must be extraordinary! What you are doing might bring trouble to the family!”
"Alright, alright! I'm not joking with you anymore!" Seeing this, Wu Niang Le Shan could only sigh helplessly, then shook her head and said, "Although I, the dignified Li Wu Niang, am a bit mischievous on a daily basis, I have never stolen anything! How could you really believe me?"
"So you were just lying to us?" Upon hearing Le Shan's answer, the other girls from the Li family all breathed a sigh of relief.
Because what Leshan said really makes sense! They know Xiao Wu's personality; they just hadn't thought of that in their moment of panic!
"So these pearls were really a gift from my brother-in-law?" Si Niang Haode's eyes suddenly lit up. After all, the pearls in Le Shan's hands were quite valuable, and he certainly didn't buy them himself.
If that's the case, then it's highly likely that the gift she mentioned at the beginning was from her brother-in-law, Wei Tingyu!
"That's right!" Fifth Sister Yue Shan nodded solemnly, then looked at Fourth Sister beside her and said, "I told you so before, but you didn't believe me!"
"Why didn't my brother-in-law give me a ride?" Upon hearing this, Si Niang Haode immediately pouted her little mouth in grievance.
Meanwhile, Third Sister Kang Ning, who had remained silent, felt a slight pang of sadness. After all, this was the way of things; it was not scarcity that was the problem, but inequality.
If Wei Tingyu, the brother-in-law of the Marquis and future husband, doesn't send any gifts, then so be it.
Why did they only give it to their own fifth child? Wouldn't that be too unfair to themselves and their fourth sister?
"It's alright!" At this moment, Shouhua, who was sitting next to Kangning, noticed the displeasure on her third sister's face. She quickly and carefully tugged at her hand and then gently advised in her ear, "The Marquis probably just gave it to Xiaowu because he thought she was lively and cute. There's no other meaning behind it!"
“Yes! Yes!” At this moment, the second wife, Fu Hui, who was not far away, nodded repeatedly: “The Marquis treats all his wives and concubines in the mansion equally! We can testify to this, and you will know it when you enter the Marquis’s mansion!”
"Big sister! Second sister!" Kang Ning shook her head slightly and said with a smile, "Why would I be jealous of my fifth sister? Don't worry about it!"
