Chapter 789:  Quite Silly!

Yin Huaixi had never mentioned this before.

He only combined the two jade pendants into a round pendant and told her that they were a pair.

She naturally thought that this pair of jade pendants was their engagement token. Her attitude towards him had changed when they parted.

However, on careful thought, Yin Huaixi had never mentioned anything about a marriage.

He was clearly deliberately misleading her.

Yin Huaixi’s eyelids twitched. “I was the one who asked for the agreement. They allowed me a chance, a promise that I have to fulfill even if I have to risk my life.”

Actually, Yu Youyao was just saying it casually.

Yin Huaixi’s actions were not considered deception, nor could they rise to the level of scheming. He had only used the token given by his elders to test her intentions.

However, after a normal person found out that they were engaged, they should have asked their elders and everything would be clear.

But she did not do so.

Yu Youyao was not a fool. The marriage was indeed arranged. It was impossible for her not to know anything. Before her grandmother passed away, she had a chance to explain it to Yu Youyao, but her grandmother did not.

In her grandmother’s opinion, this token was a talisman for her.

With this agreement, King Yue Fei would protect her.

After coming to the Xie Residence, her maternal grandfather had never mentioned anything about a marriage.

The Xie family’s attitude coincided with her grandmother’s.

“Yin Huaixi…” Yu Youyao called him.

“Yes?”

“Silly!” She was just playing dumb for once.

She had been used to playing dumb since she was young. She had lied to her grandmother, Yin Huaixi, Yu Jianjia, and even everyone in the Yu Residence.

Even Yang Shuwan, who treated her as a thorn in her side and wished she could get rid of her quickly, felt that she, the eldest daughter of the first wife, was extremely mischievous and stupid. It was more useful to keep her around to make Yu Jianjia look understanding, pure, and kind than to take a risk and get rid of her directly.

Yu Youyao smiled. “I’m pretending to be stupid, but you’re really stupid.”

Yin Huaixi’s gaze darkened.

“I’ve learned women’s teachings since I was seven years old.” Yu Youyao lowered her head and stroked the pouch at her waist. In the pouch was the token she had always carried. “I know what women should and shouldn’t do, but I turned a blind eye to them. I ignored them because you dote on me and protected me.”

Yin Huaixi had always felt that his father was a little stupid. He had always believed that his intelligence was inherited from him. However, now that Yu Youyao said that he was a fool, he was actually willing to endure it. He even felt that it was good to be a fool.

At the very least, he had his wife.

Although they hadn’t fully warmed up yet, at least they had started, right?

After a while, Yu Youyao did not hear any commotion. She looked up in confusion and saw Yin Huaixi standing stiffly on the spot, as if he had become a statue that could not move.

In order to ensure that the cotton armor was light, flexible, and convenient for combat, the cotton armor was made of a layer of golden silk and a layer of red silk.

The silk was extremely elastic and tough. It was resistant to moisture and brittleness, and it was even better at keeping one warm. Hundreds and thousands of strands of silk were woven into silk thread that was used to weave armor. It had a certain resistance to swords.

Therefore, silk was a must for making military armor.

As a result, the military armor made of golden thread and silk looked heroic. When worn, it would not look stiff or heavy.

When ordinary people wore smart and divine cotton armor, their auras also had to increase.

Yin Huaixi was wearing cotton armor, making him look cold and tall. However, Yu Youyao saw him standing there stiffly, making him look stiff and clumsy.

It was quite silly!

Yin Huaixi was a little stunned. His mind was filled with thoughts of how his father had gone to a banquet back then. Before he reached home, that family had sent a beautiful dancer over.

When his father returned home, his pupils trembled.

He immediately sent the dancer away, apologized humbly, and took the initiative to kneel on the washboard. He finally obtained his wife’s initial forgiveness.

She asked the nanny in front of her to come over and pass on a message. “On account of Your Highness’s sincere apology, the Princess Consort asked you not to kneel on the washboard.”

But!

His father was panicking!

He knelt on the washboard and refused to get up. He looked like he would not swear until he knelt on the washboard to the point of breaking it!

At that time, Yin Huaixi was sitting on an old elm tree in the courtyard, munching on melon seeds and watching a show. “The actors on the stage don’t act as much as you do.”

His father looked smug. “What do you know? Your mother forgives me now because she’s gentle and kind and not good at making things difficult for others. If I get up now before she gets over this, she’ll definitely be unhappy. In the future, if there’s a conflict between us, we’ll definitely settle old scores.”

It would hurt their relationship to dig up old scores.

Yin Huaixi scoffed.

His father was already kneeling on the washboard with deep understanding. “Just you wait. In less than fifteen minutes, your mother will definitely come over personally.”

Indeed!

His mother was touched by his father’s “sincere apology” attitude, so she couldn’t sit still anymore and quickly came over personally to persuade him.

His father said righteously, “Madam, you forgave me because you’re magnanimous and understanding. You don’t hold it against me. Madam, you’ve abandoned the glory and wealth in the capital and distanced yourself from your family. You’ve accompanied me all the way to the border to suffer. You’re loyal to me and have sacrificed a lot. Due to a moment of carelessness, I allowed others to take advantage of the situation and cause trouble for you. This is my fault. Madam, let me continue to kneel. This way, I can learn from you.”

It would have been better if he hadn’t mentioned this. At the mention of her family, she was indeed still angry. Seeing that he refused to get up, she said, “Then continue kneeling!”

Yin Huaixi mocked his father. “You’re overdoing it. Haha, continue kneeling!”

However, his father was not anxious and looked confident. “What do you know? The fact that your mother is willing to come over personally means that her heart aches for me and she has already forgiven me in her heart. However, she hasn’t vented her anger. If I get up now, your mother might still be angry in her heart. In the future, she might be angry at the thought of this and even be unreasonable.”

It was harmful to the body to be angry.

Yin Huaixi sneered. “Is my mother an unreasonable person?!”

His father glanced at him. “Don’t doubt me. If you really want to live a good life with her, you can’t avoid the main point and live with it. I’ve gotten over it, but your mother hasn’t. I have to face my mistakes head-on and reflect deeply on them. I have to swear to the heavens to show my loyalty.”

Yin Huaixi mocked him soulfully. “Continue kneeling!

His father was so angry that he wanted to take off his shoes and slap him. Then, he realized that he was still kneeling, so he could only kneel obediently. “You, I say, kid, why aren’t you convinced? Your mother is such a smart person. How can she really think that I’m disloyal to her just because someone sent a woman over? A truly smart woman never needs an explanation. An explanation is equivalent to contempt for her intelligence. Her heart is as clear as a mirror. What is needed is an attitude!”
