TFWYH – Chapter 438 You’re Not Blind

Yi Zhanhong’s face darkened as he scolded,
“There are guests here! What nonsense are you talking about?”

Liu Meng’e pouted.
“Father, I’m just worried. My husband doesn’t even have concubines or maidservants to attend him, and I can’t serve him myself. What if some little vixen steals him away?”

Yi Zhanhong pointed at her angrily.
“You—you—you’re talking complete nonsense! Zhe’er, take a good look—this is the fine wife you chose!”

Yi Minzhe said helplessly,
“Father, Meng’e is the daughter of a military family. She may not be as refined as noble ladies from sheltered households, but she’s straightforward and lovable. She doesn’t mean any harm.”

Yi Zhanhong snorted.
“No bad intentions, perhaps—but no manners either!”

“Father…”

“Wait!”

Yi Minzhe wanted to continue persuading him, but Tang Wan suddenly interrupted. Looking utterly baffled, she stared at Liu Meng’e.

“The celestial beauty you said was seducing someone… you don’t mean me, do you?”

Liu Meng’e looked closely—

Oh my heavens.
She really was a celestial beauty!

Liu Meng’e grew nervous.
Liu Meng’e grew uneasy.
She grabbed her husband’s arm tightly and stared at Tang Wan with full vigilance, her eyes brimming with hostility.

Tang Wan quickly raised her hands in surrender and pointed to Ling Yu beside her.

“Look carefully—I already have a handsome husband. I don’t need yours. Don’t believe random gossip!”

Hearing this, Liu Meng’e turned to look at Ling Yu—and her heart jolted violently.

Good heavens… THIS is the real immortal!
He was unbelievably good-looking!

Compared to this man, her own husband wasn’t just a little inferior—it was like the difference between heaven and earth!

With such top-tier beauty beside her, would that lady be blind enough to fancy her own husband?

Unaware that he had just been silently labeled “the ugly one,” Yi Minzhe continued introducing Ling Yu and Tang Wan. Afterward, he sighed helplessly.

“Who exactly filled your ears with this nonsense? You’re pregnant, and your condition is already unstable. What if something went wrong again?”

His words suddenly awakened Liu Meng’e.

Only then did she realize she’d been tricked. She immediately fumed,
“The one who told me was Qing’er from the kitchen! I remember she’s very close to Wen Dai’er. It must be that wretched woman—she just can’t stand seeing me happy!”

Yi Minzhe was speechless.
“In the end, it’s because you didn’t trust me.”

“Absolutely not!” Liu Meng’e denied reflexively. Then she ran to Madam Yi’s side, tears appearing instantly.

“Mother, please send that Wen Dai’er away! She’s clearly trying to harm me. I’m carrying your grandchild—how can I endure being frightened like this all the time? What if your precious grandson gets scared out of existence?”

“Alright, alright,” Madam Yi said soothingly. “I was already planning to send her away after the provincial examination anyway. A few days sooner makes no difference.”

Compared to a distant niece, her daughter-in-law was obviously more important. Besides, she never liked Wen Dai’er—there was something restless and untrustworthy about her.

After securing Madam Yi’s support, Liu Meng’e finally sat down and began chatting enthusiastically with Tang Wan, all hostility completely gone.

Tang Wan blinked.
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll steal your husband anymore?”

“Oh please,” Liu Meng’e waved it off. “You’re not blind. With a gem like that standing beside you, how could you possibly fancy my silly husband?”

Yi Minzhe: …Could you lower your voice when complaining? I can hear you!

Tang Wan hadn’t expected Lord Yi’s entire family to be such comedians.

Honestly—it was quite entertaining.

After staying a while longer, the young couple took their leave.

In two days, the provincial examination would begin. Tang Wan didn’t want to disturb Ling Yu any further and hoped he could focus fully on his studies and aim for first place.

As for herself, she planned to go with Ling Yue to see Yuan Yuan off—and she even specifically invited Mu Qingfeng along.
