"Iām not hungry yet, Iāll go later."
"Creak..." Just then, the door was pushed open from outside.
But Mu Huaen didnāt see anyone come in.
She was feeling puzzled when she heard the sound of two people talking, "Is Cousin in there?"
"Definitely not, heās outside drinking with the guests."
"How do we get in?"
"Watch me."
Then she saw a little girl bending over, with her head lowered, sneaking in.
Soon after, a boy followed her, and the two of them scurried past Mu Huaen, hiding behind the screen.
The boy said, "Sister-in-law must have seen us just now, right?"
The girl scolded, "Dummy, she saw us, but not our faces. Donāt speak, hide well. I heard itās going to be fun later."
"How are we going to have fun just hiding like this?"
These two were Luo Hongjun and Qi Yunqiao, and Yang Xiayun had already met Yang Dongxueās family of three.
Luo Hongjun and Qi Yunqiao, this pair of cousin siblings, got along very well.
Also, because Luo Linhao remembered how Yangyang teased him ten years ago during the wedding night, he instructed his son to come over.
But what his dad said about teasing during the wedding night wasnāt about hiding like this!
Mu Huaen was speechless. Did these two think she was blind?
"Hongjun, if you donāt come out, donāt blame me for not stopping your cousin from beating you later."
"And which family is that cute little girl from? I saw you."
The two behind the bed exchanged a look and then came out with their heads hanging low.
"Sister-in-law, you could have pretended not to see us."
Qi Yunqiao also giggled, "Sister-in-law, you donāt know me. Iām Qi Yunqiao. My mom and his mom are first cousins." As she spoke, she pointed at Luo Hongjun.
Mu Huaen looked over. This was a very cute girl, but she couldnāt quite recall which family she belonged to, so she just smiled at her.
She then looked at Luo Hongjun, "Thereās no problem with you staying here, but if your cousin finds out and punishes you, donāt cry."
Thinking about Ye Haoyangās ways of punishing people, Luo Hongjun shivered and didnāt bother saying anything else, pulling Qi Yunqiao along as he ran out, "Sister-in-law, please donāt say we were here."
"Luo Hongjun, why are you running? We havenāt done anything yet?"
"Are you stupid? If we donāt run now, weāll be punished by our cousin in all sorts of ways for the next month." He remembered when he ran away from home to Shandong to find his cousin, and ended up being made to work as the Fire Heads Army for a month, getting up before dawn to stoke the fire, and washing dishes while others slept. Just thinking about it now made him shiver.
"Why are you two running?" Ye Haoyang, slightly tipsy, returned at that moment and ran into the two rascals.
Luo Hongjun immediately stood up straight, "Aunty asked us to bring some food to Sister-in-law, we just delivered it, and weāre heading back now."
Qi Yunqiao instead said, "We were here to..."
Before she could finish, Luo Hongjun gave her a slap, "Shut up if you donāt want to die."
"You brat, how dare you hit your cousin?" Qi Yunqiao was furious.
Ye Haoyang knew exactly what these two were up to, a couple of little fools, but he was in a good mood today, so he decided not to bother with them.
Shaking his head, he staggered back to the bridal chamber.
"Little wife, your husband is back..."
This address made Mu Huaenās face turn red with embarrassment.
Ye Haoyang waved his hand, and the attendants withdrew, closing the door behind them.
"Huaen!!" Ye Haoyang approached and hugged her, murmuring, "Your husband has been waiting for this day for more than ten years."
