three of them carried three large bags, their faces pale with exhaustion.Everyone was surprised, more curious, wondering what they had brought back.Jia Yi rushed to the entrance of his own cave and s...Coral strained to look into his eyes, searching for sincerity. She sobbed and laughed all at once.

She didn't miss, she grabbed her salvation!

Li Jia-yi was feeling both distressed and embarrassed. He coughed twice, unsure how to continue the conversation.

He simply threw out a sentence, "Coral Girl, take care of yourself first. I'll go home and tell someone!"

Having said that, he turned his head and strode out.

Coral watched his back until he disappeared, then covered her face with her hands and cried again.

"Oh, Miss Coral, you nearly drove me crazy!" That elderly woman had somehow stood outside the door all along, hearing almost everything that had just transpired.

Before, Coral got hurt, and it was she who took care of her, so she was quite familiar with it.

She rushed straight into the tent, pulled down the curtain, and grabbed Coral's hand, saying happily as she opened her mouth.

"Coral girl, great joy, great joy!"

General Li likes you and wants to marry you. You won't have to suffer anymore from now on!

Listen to me, don't be foolish! If someone from the Li family comes to pick you up, just follow them. Don't mention anything that could implicate the Li family. The Li family isn't even bothered, so don't hold on any longer.

"You really feel guilty, don't you From now on, treat the Li family well and repay your debt of gratitude!"

“Auntie Mi!” Coral couldn’t help but hug the elderly woman, choked with sobs. “I was afraid General Li pitied me, but he said he admired me, that I was decisive, that I…I’m so happy! He doesn’t pity me, he doesn’t pity me!”

"Silly girl!" Mi's wife also had red eyes, patting Coral with sympathy and whispering, "You are a good family girl, you read and write since childhood, you are well-behaved and even know martial arts. You're perfect in every way."

General Li likes you, that means he has good taste! Don't worry about those rumors in the future. Your family got robbed because you weren't prepared enough.

"The Li family is not like that, they are powerful. Others don't speak up, but with General Li around, no one dares to bully them! "

"If you are truly worried, then burn more incense for your parents and ask them to bless General Li and his family!"

"Hmm!" Coral nodded emphatically.

Mi Saozi thought for a moment and then advised again: “As for the Li family, I think the two ladies who came to visit you are kind and approachable, unlike those haughty noblewomen.”

The Li family would also act very cautiously and wouldn't directly invite you in. There would have to be a matchmaker and dowries involved. This way, after going through all the proper ceremonies, it wouldn't be until three or four months later that you would get married.

"Take this time to observe the Li family properly and see how they are, and if you'd get along well with them. "

"If you truly feel something is wrong, you should reconsider even if it's difficult. Marriage is a lifelong commitment!"

"No!" Coral immediately spoke up, objecting. "Mi Ma'am, I know you mean well, but we can't say that again in the future."

General Li and the Li family have been kind to me. To be willing to marry a woman like me is already very generous of them.

"Only the Li family dislikes me, and I will absolutely have no personal feelings for them!"

"Alright, alright, don't worry so much!" Mi Saozi sighed, "I was just saying casually. Your marriage is something you should be happy about."

"Think about it carefully, this is the best outcome. People say that after the darkest hour comes the brightest day, you'll definitely have good days ahead!"

"Thank you, sister-in-law. I won't forget your care for me."

"Oh, never mind that. In this world, it's not easy being a woman. We should help each other out."

Without mentioning what Coral and Mrs. Mi were saying, let's just say that the Li family courtyard was also in an uproar at this moment.

"What did you say, Jiayi! Miss Coral agreed to marry you" Old Madam Li was so surprised she almost dropped the lychee in her hand, and pulled her grandson beside her.

"Indeed, Jia Yi, what on earth is going on!" Tao Hongying was also curious and delighted. "When we visited before, Coral wouldn't even agree to a marriage proposal, let alone accept a gift."

Mrs. Wen put down her needlework and smiled, "This is wonderful news! That young lady seems quite good, a suitable match for you!"

Jiayi's face flushed red, wanting to say a few vague words, but fearing that the family would misunderstand Coral, she ended up telling them everything that had just happened.

Lao Li and the others all listened with sighs of sympathy and heartache.

Tao Hongying was even more furious, scolding: “How can there be such shameless wounded people!”

"The young lady bandaged his wound, she did him a favor. He wasn't grateful, and he even wanted to harm her! "

“Such a heartless villain deserves to die by the hands of the Japanese pirates!”

Li Laotai also said: "That's right, Coral girl fought well. When you encounter such a beast, you should beat him until he is afraid and won't dare to have bad thoughts again next time."

Mrs. Wen sighed, “This girl is also pitiful. Before, she was raised to be carefree and generous at home, very much loved.”

"Suddenly, everyone in my family passed away, and I was burdened with so many rumors. Even the strongest person would inevitably become timid and fearful."

"He was afraid of doing something wrong and being criticized, and even more afraid that if he got close to someone, they would be implicated and suffer misfortune. It's truly... not easy!"

Everyone nodded.

"Thinking back to the previous danger, Jia Yi said, 'She was truly determined to die. If I hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid she would have perished along with that wounded soldier.'"

"Good job!" Old Madam Li patted her grandson's shoulder and praised, "I was worried before, not knowing when you two youngsters would be able to get straight to the point and get married quickly."

"Now that everything's been made clear, the rest is up to the family. You just wait and be the groom!"

Jia Yi blushed again, but still endured the shame and whispered, “Grandma, Miss Coral was originally a young lady from a well-to-do family, but her family fell into misfortune…”

"Don't worry, you little rascal!" Li Laotai smiled, her face blooming like a flower. She deftly fed her grandson a reassurance pill, "When our Li family takes in a daughter-in-law, what time would we ever let the girl be wronged"

Besides, you've gotten married and settled down here. Our Li family has gained another strong root, so we have to make this a proper celebration.

"Thank you, Grandma!" Jiayi felt completely at ease. He scratched his head and, making up an excuse about something in the army camp, quickly ran off.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Li Laodai waved his hand, and began to "gather troops".

"Come, come, let's discuss quickly how to arrange for Miss Coral!

This girl is stubborn. Our family suddenly fell into hardship and she was hurt again. Let's think more about it and don't wrong her!

"Since now we're family, let's treat our new daughter-in-law with extra love and care!"

A crowd quickly gathered and expressed their opinions.

Without talking about how lively Quanzhou was, let's just say that on the Fragrant Gold Beach, people were busy visiting relatives and friends throughout January. In the blink of an eye, it was the twelfth day of the first lunar month.

At the previous palace banquet, Jia Yin had been asked to come forward on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Now, there's no way she could delay any longer.

Wan'er brought the family maidservants, and that day she was busy helping her younger sister pack her luggage.

Besides clothes, shoes, socks and jewelry, don't forget to bring along everyday essentials.

Waner was afraid that her younger sister-in-law would suffer grievances in the palace, and wished to dress up as a maidservant to serve her.

It's a pity it didn't work out, guess I just have to prepare more things in case anything happens.

Here are three more chapters~d when our children succeed. There's no reason to keep them by our side!” Mr. Peng beamed and patted Jiayuan’s arm. “Study hard when the time comes, a variety of skills will never weigh you down.”"Yes...
