The gongs and drums, the suona, the red carpet, the flying flowers filled the sky.

The rich and powerful Qi Shaohao of the Jing Country celebrated the grand wedding, wrapping the entire Yiyang Imperial City in a festive atmosphere.

The long street was bustling with activity. The citizens who were walking along the street raised their necks to look at the scene.

Just like the endless sea of red flowers, welcoming a crimson palanquin. On the curtain made of red silk, there was a picture of a large peony blooming, which had caught the eyes of all the onlookers. A group of one hundred and eight people, all dressed in red, walked in a neat and orderly manner, like a moving sea of red flowers.

"Ai," Amongst the crowd, the little girl carrying a bamboo basket full of vegetables was full of envy, "Miss Lin is so lucky."

"You can't count this young miss Lin's fate as good!" Standing on the street, Aunt Wang who was selling tofu glanced at the bridal sedan in front of her and said, "Young Master Qi of our Yiyang City is the most famous young master in Jing Guo. Being able to marry him can be considered as the fortune of a previous life."

The inn owner who was still chewing on melon seeds nodded her head, lowering her voice and gossiping, "I heard, although the Lin Family is also an aristocratic family, but compared to the Qi Family, they are still a lot worse in status," She spat out the shell in her mouth, revealing a disdainful smile on her chubby face, "This family, I heard that it was the Lin Family's old master who begged for it so hard."

The capital's Qi family's Young Master Shao Hao was a genius with outstanding talent. Ever since he had leapt onto the list of the four great young masters five years ago, he had steadily sat at the top of the list without moving at all.

Such an elegant and graceful young master was worthy of the Lin Family elder's bitter request.

Pingyang Road, in a corner of the stall selling makeup, the low chatter continued. The bright red sedan turned a corner and headed towards the Qi Mansion located on Lotus Leaf Street.

Dressed in tattered clothes, Goudan'er came out from the end of the alleyway. His body was bent and his footsteps were erratic. His tiny figure had entered the grandeur of the honor guard in the blink of an eye. With his weak stature, he scurried left and right, playing with the crowd of waiters chasing behind him.

"You little bastard with a mother and no father," the waiter stopped and panted heavily, "If you fall into my hands, I'll skin you alive!" The young second brother spoke fiercely, his eyes filled with the ominous glint of stinging flesh.

The six or seven year old little figure trembled within the crowd. A pair of small hands embraced the two steamed buns in his embrace, not letting go no matter what. A small ball of his was shuttling back and forth in the entourage as he advanced. A nice round of escorting the bride was disrupted by him.

"Someone come!" Someone come! " Nanny Ruan shouted loudly, "Hurry up and capture that brat!" She pointed at the maidservants on both sides of her and quickly instructed them, "If today's wedding is ruined, how can we let you enjoy the fruits?!" A high-pitched voice pierced the air, the sounds of mocking and ridicule could be heard clearly in the long street.

Goudan'er became the target of public criticism. The adults' faces, one after another, either impatient or fierce, frightened the six-year-old child quite badly. He shrunk his body and scuttled past an attendant, escaping even faster.

"Capture him... "Capture him..."

"Brat, where do you think you're going …"

In the chaos, there was a loud "smack" as the palanquin fell to the ground.

The apex of Madame Nguyen's heart trembled, then shuddered again. The culprit, Goudan, took advantage of the moment when everyone was stunned to escape into the big sedan.

The air suddenly became sluggish, and the entire Lotus Leaf Street immediately sank into a strange silence.

On the day of the wedding, a small flower came out of the path, so openly entering the bridal sedan. No matter which family the girl was from, she wouldn't be able to bear it. There was no need to talk about it, the young miss of an aristocratic family, Lin Huanhuan, was also happy.

The onlookers widened their eyes. Many pairs of bewildered eyes tightly locked onto the crimson sedan.

Nanny Ruan froze on the spot. Her hands were at her waist and her mouth was open. She was still as furious as before.

However, in the silence, in the weird silence, there was only a calm voice coming from the sedan. "It's getting late, get up."

Qing Ling's voice carried a chill that was unique to the murmur of the mountain spring. It cut through the eardrums of everyone present. However, it was indifferent and did not cause them to feel the slightest bit of alienation.

After all, Madame Nguyen is a person who has been in Yiyang City for many years. At this moment, he lifted the curtain and entered the palanquin to capture him? Was this how it was supposed to be? So many people were watching? Who would be responsible for the reputation of the Lin Clan's young miss? Who's going to take on Young Master Qi's ruined wedding? Who would dare to accept it? So, Nguyen's face is heavy, only Xiao thinks, she already took advantage of the downhill donkey, "up palanquin!" On her face, a smiling face made of makeup was already hung up. "Everyone hurry up, don't miss the auspicious hour at noon."

Wu La'ulla's suona blew again, and the gongs and drums rang through the sky. Miss Lin from the Ling Nan Family carried the soft sedan and continued to head towards the Qi Residence.

Inside the big, happy sedan, Goudan'er's eyes widened. His eyes that were like purple grapes stared blankly at the lady dressed in luxurious clothing sitting diagonally on the soft couch. Sister... Sister? " The child's voice, with a trace of uncertain uneasiness, curled up in a corner, timidly, carefully, or perhaps reverently, and held out small, dusty hands to the woman who sat down.

That pair of small hands, weak, dirty, luxurious sedan chair, more and more suddenly and unbearably.

As if he had discovered his embarrassment and dirtiness, Goudan'er lowered his brows. His extended hand stopped in midair and was about to withdraw.

"Hm." Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Without the slightest hesitation, her slender hands were already holding the child's small hands. Her left hand was wrapped around the child who was curled up under the bed." Damned Goudan'er, I don't even know your big sister Yu'er anymore! " Her index finger was slender as she poked the child lightly on the forehead.
