Chapter 1252 - 965: The Pit-Digging Xiaosuisui
The next day, Ji Youcheng indeed arrived, looking travel-worn.
He clearly hadn’t slept for several days and nights, rushing here overnight.
"Just think about it—getting married is such a big deal, right?
Yet you only sent me a letter asking me to buy a mansion and prepare your wedding here. You didn’t even let Mother know, nor do you plan to have her host your wedding, is that it?"
Ji Youcheng looked at Ji Youze, and his words were nothing short of reproachful!
"To avoid unnecessary delays, I’ve set the wedding date a bit hastily. Here, I’m just holding a ceremony to let the people of Dongyue know that the Pearl Princess is marrying me and that she’s a wife of Great Han. Once matters here are settled, I’ll return to Capital City and have a proper grand celebration.
Since Mother didn’t participate in your wedding, Eldest Brother, and Sixth Brother’s, I will certainly have her drink tea of respect from the daughter-in-law at mine."
Upon hearing this, Ji Youcheng’s expression turned unpleasant.
"Ah, you sly eighth brother, you’re actually waiting for me here!
What does my wedding or Old Six’s wedding have to do with you, that you’ve been waiting here for me?"
"I just want to tell Third Brother to help me properly prepare the wedding, and stop scolding me!"
"You..."
Ji Youcheng was infuriated, grinding his teeth. "There’s never been a younger brother like you in the whole world. You want to use your brother’s resources and money, and yet still complain about him meddling in your business!"
With a deadpan face, Ji Youze tossed a bone to his good third brother.
"Don’t grumble. Once you prepare everything early, so that after my wedding I can rightfully enter Dongyue, your Bright Moon Pavilion can truly spread across the world."
Ji Youcheng’s eyes lit up, "Are you serious about this?"
"When have I ever lied to you?"
"So you really have a way with Beiyuan, right?"
"We’ve already wiped out Xiling. We’re about to enter Dongyue. Once Dongyue becomes part of Great Han’s territory, Beiyuan will naturally submit."
Ji Youcheng gave him a thumbs up.
"Whatever great deed Long Zhan did in his past life to deserve a strategist like you to help him unify the nation!"
Ji Youze stayed silent, watching a little bundle dart towards them, leaping right into Ji Youcheng’s arms.
"Third Uncle, you’re here too!"
Ji Youcheng picked her up and held her in his arms.
"Sweetie, say it quickly, wish Third Uncle wealth and prosperity!"
The little girl giggled, "Wish Third Uncle wealth and prosperity, abundant fortune!"
Ji Youcheng was overjoyed, in high spirits, he gave her lots of gold nuggets.
"Take them to play with! I came here hurriedly and didn’t have time to find you treasures on the way!"
Little Suisui happily accepted the gold nuggets from Ji Youcheng.
Then, she smacked a kiss on Ji Youcheng’s face.
She froze after the kiss, blinked her eyes, then continued to stare at Ji Youcheng.
"What is it?
Sweetheart, why are you staring at Third Uncle like this?"
Ji Youcheng began to feel a bit flustered from her gaze.
One must know, this little girl is skilled in Qi Observation Technique.
If she stares at someone, it means she’s seeing some serious issue.
Swallowing hard, Ji Youcheng asked little Suisui, with a heart full of anxiety, "Sweetheart, is your Third Uncle in any grave danger?"
Little Suisui blinked, shook her head, "No, you’re not in danger. It’s Third Aunt who’s going to have trouble."
"Ah!"
Ji Youcheng was thoroughly flustered, quickly asked, "What’s wrong with your Third Aunt?
Sweetheart, quickly tell Third Uncle what’s wrong with your Third Aunt?
Is there any remedy?"
At his words, Ji Youze frowned.
"Suisui! Don’t keep us hanging.
Quickly tell us, what’s wrong with your Third Aunt?"
Little Suisui said, "Third Uncle is going to be a dad. Third Aunt is pregnant with a little baby, isn’t that a hardship for Third Aunt?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Youcheng widened his eyes.
"You... what did you say?
Say it again!"
Ji Youcheng couldn’t help but touch his little heart, which was pounding fiercely, everything the little girl said seemed like a hallucination.
"I said Third Uncle is going to be a dad, Third Aunt is pregnant with a little baby!"
"Old Eight, did you hear that?
I’m going to be a dad, Old Eight, she’s pregnant, your Third Sister-in-law is pregnant, I’m truly amazing."
Ji Youcheng, holding little Suisui, directly lifted her high in the air, tossing her up and catching her when she came down, overjoyed beyond measure.
Like a child.
Ji Youze’s mouth twitched, unable to look at his Third Brother’s happiness, he coldly commented.
