The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 208 No Understanding Between Husband and Wife

The commotion outside reached Wei Zhao's ears inside the house.

He's been unusually sleepy these past few days. It's as if he's trying to make up for all the sleepless nights he spent tossing and turning, vomiting blood from the pain.

The smoke from the incense burner swirled and spread to every corner; it was a superior calming incense, its fragrance fresh and delicate.

He opened his eyes, sat up straight, slowly got off the bed to wash up, then sat down at the wooden table and took out the warm porridge from the food box.

The porridge smelled delicious; it was made with broth from an old hen that had been simmering for half a day.

But after taking too much medicine, his mouth tasted bland, so Wei Zhao expressionlessly stuffed it into his mouth.

He didn't rush out, intentionally letting Yu Tingwan exchange pleasantries with Master Sun. They hadn't seen each other for so many years; they must have a lot to talk about.

I had only taken a few bites when I heard two or three knocks on the back window.

Two light and one heavy.

Wei Zhao put down his bowl and went over. As soon as he lifted a corner of the bowl, he saw a letter under the window.

Very thin.

The envelope was opened, and inside were coded messages from Wei's army.

Wei Zhao read ten lines at a glance, his eyes gradually darkening.

The investigation is into the mysterious fire at the Yu family residence. Even He Xuran has yet to make any progress.

He Xuran personally investigated Yu Tingwan's background, leaving no detail overlooked. Every time he made a lead, the trail would quickly go cold.

He couldn't find anything.

That's the key point.

It was not that He Xuran was incompetent.

It's likely that the person who covered up these things back then had far more methods and power than the He family.

This is something worth pondering.

How many people in the capital could achieve this level?
From the palace?
Or was he a meritorious official?

He Xuran isn't stupid; the more he acts like this, the more suspicious it seems.

He faced many setbacks, but he always managed to call for help.

For example, his brother-in-law... Grand Tutor Gu.

Wei Zhao held the letter up to the candlelight, watching it turn to ashes, his expression shifting between light and shadow, as if it were something he couldn't quite grasp.

outside the house.

Seeing that Yu Tingwan's complexion was rosy, and noticing that the Wei family's courtyard was very bright, Master Sun knew that she was doing well after her marriage.

“Come, take me to see your husband.”

Just as he was about to stand up, he heard the tightly closed door creak open by the person inside.

Master Sun looked over.

Despite being dressed in very ordinary clothes, the thick cotton coat he wore looked somewhat loose on him because of his illness.

But her good looks were irresistible.

He has a high nose, thin lips, and long, slender eyebrows and eyes.

Her divine bearing was lofty and refined, like a jade tree in a celestial forest, a being beyond the mundane world.

When Master Sun was young, he went to the capital to take the imperial examination and had the good fortune to see the Imperial Clan Court Vice Minister, a third-rank official, who was in charge of apprehending criminals.

He was invited to the prefect's residence as a guest because he had mentored several scholars who had passed the imperial examinations.

These people were all dressed in official robes, with stern faces and speaking in official jargon, exuding an aura of authority that inspired awe.

Master Sun had seen a lot of the world.

But I don't know why.

Wei Zhaoguang stood there, his gaze indifferent. Even though he tried to restrain himself, his innate nobility could not be hidden.

Just then, Master Zhao came over with his book and saw Wei Zhao, and he was extremely excited.

"Don't move, you're still seriously ill, don't walk too much."

Master Zhao pushed the wheelchair that was placed in the courtyard over, showing great enthusiasm.

He was already willing to deal with Wei Zhao, and now their relationship has become even closer.

"Come on, let me push you."

Wei Zhao: "No need."

He can still walk a few steps.

Don't be so formal with me.

Master Zhao pressed Wei Zhao down and placed him in a wheelchair.

Wei Zhao:......

In the past, do you know how many times you could have died?

Master Zhao was completely unaware: "I heard from your father that you are much better. I didn't believe it at first, but now that I see you like this, I am much more relieved."

"We were neighbors before, but now we're practically family, so we should visit each other even more often."

Master Sun also withdrew his gaze at this moment.

"This……"

He turned to look at Yu Tingwan. "You certainly know how to find someone."

Such magnanimity is hard to find in the entire Ze County.

but……

As Master Zhao pushed the person closer, Master Sun smiled and said, "This child hasn't caused you any trouble, has he?"

Yu Tingwan: ? ? ?

What the hell.

She looked at Wei Zhao: "Tell him the truth."

Tell him!
Even if I cause the sky to fall, you can still plug it!

Wei Zhao raised an eyebrow and said truthfully, "I can still tolerate it."

Yu Tingwan: ? ? ?

She is sad.

Because Wei Zhao is no longer afraid of being hammered.

There's absolutely no understanding between the couple.

"Then you have a good temper."

Master Sun sighed, "Back then, I was always carrying my ruler with me."

Although this Wei family son looks quite good.

Yu Tingwan was taught by him.

The child is literate and good-looking. If anything happens, she is poised and confident, showing no fear whatsoever.

Standing together, he felt they were a good match.

Master Sun couldn't contain himself: "Are you from the Wei family army?"

Wei Zhao was not as taciturn as he was in front of Master Zhao: "I suppose so."

Master Sun sighed, "What a pity."

"I have great respect for General Wei. A young hero who died young. He should be about your age."

"When the coffin was brought to Ze County, if it weren't for my leg problems, I would have come and led a group of students to kneel and bid farewell to him outside the post station."

Wei Zhao:......

I appreciate your kind gesture.

After settling Wei Zhao in, Master Zhao sat down to the side. Upon hearing this, he quickly stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "Rest assured, Master, the entire academy relies on General Wei. We already saw him off."

Yu Tingwan couldn't hold back.

"what."

My arm was hit.

Master Sun rebuked him: "What are you laughing at about such a serious and tragic matter?"

He was very worried. Even though Yu Tingwan had grown up, she still had the heart of a child.

The Wei family is part of the Wei family army, and General Wei is the soul of their army. What if Yu Tingwan shows disrespect to the general, causing a rift between husband and wife?

Yu Tingwan gently kicked Wei Zhao's cloth boots, who was sitting in a wheelchair.

Wei Zhao twitched the corner of his mouth: "It is rather funny."

Yu Tingwan was satisfied.

Master Sun: ...

He was pleased that the couple had a good relationship.

However, Master Sun got to the point: "What did the doctor say about your health?"

"No problem."

Wei Zhao thought for a moment, then added in a gentle and meaningful voice, "In a few more days, it will be back to normal."

Yu Tingwan: ?
As you answer, why are you looking at her like that?

"That's good."

Master Sun asked, "What books have you read?"

Yu Tingwan, feeling sorry for the man, handed the heater to Wei Zhao and said, "It's more than yours."

She muttered to herself, "It's fine to ask us about this, but you're asking him? Isn't that just humiliating yourself?"

Master Zhao: ...

Oh my god.

He never dared to utter a single disrespectful word in front of his mentor.

Yu Tingwan is indeed as rumored... a troublemaker.

Master Sun was not annoyed; in fact, he was quite pleased.

This was the first time Yu Tingwan had ever argued with her since then.

It feels like... going back to the past.

He glared at her: "Even if you value your partner, there should be limits."

Although he was just a lowly schoolteacher, not as learned and talented as those who were well-read, how many people in Ze County would dare to say that?
"Even if what you say is true, this young man from the Wei family should be more humble in everything he does."
