Chapter 1920: Chapter 1922: Their Marriage Brings Joy to All

Yang Ming’s mother stood up and said, "Well, don’t take what Auntie just said to heart, all right? Auntie didn’t mean to blame you. Anyway, you still have things to do, right? Then Auntie will head back first."

Yang Ming’s mother felt a bit embarrassed, unsure what overcame her earlier. Worried about her daughter, the words just slipped out, revealing her thoughts in front of others, and by the time she realized it, it was too late.

Seeing Yang Ming’s mother heading out, rushing towards the courtyard, Wang Kui hastily pursued her, "Auntie, let me see you off."

"No need, no need, I still have to go to the market to buy vegetables, so you don’t have to escort me. Just mind your tasks, and when there’s time, Auntie will come to visit you all again," Yang Ming’s mother refused hurriedly, her steps quickening.

Seeing Yang Ming’s mother decline so firmly, Wang Kui didn’t insist but instead turned around and gave a look to one of his brothers, who immediately stepped out the door.

Wang Kui returned to the courtyard alone, his expression somewhat unnatural, akin to an eggplant bitten by frost, because he kept ruminating over what Yang Ming’s mother had said—that Yang Qiu might never find a husband because of him.

"Head Escort Master!"

"Head Escort Master!"

"..."

"..."

Wang Kui walked forward step by step, not even hearing his brothers calling him, entering the house just like that.

Seeing Wang Kui in such a state, everyone started whispering.

"It’s over. Seeing the Head Escort Master’s distracted look, it must be the Store Manager’s mother came to give him a talking-to."

"Indeed, it must be. When has the Head Escort Master ever been so absent-minded? Like a frostbitten eggplant, seems like he got quite a scolding."

"..."

"..."

Wang Kui was indeed preoccupied, pondering how to resolve this issue.

He understood Auntie’s implication earlier, that it might be difficult for Yang Qiu to find a husband in the future. Even if there are a few willing to marry Yang Qiu, they might not be decent ones.

Because of him, Yang Qiu’s happiness might be compromised.

Does it mean Yang Qiu should be with him?

Not to mention whether Yang Qiu is willing or not, even if she is, with him living on the knife’s edge daily, not knowing when he might lose his life, being with him would bring Yang Qiu no happiness.

He sighed and decided to go out and practice some punches to calm down.

Then he heard his brothers’ chatter.

"If you ask me, the Head Escort Master isn’t married either. Just marry the Store Manager’s sister, and it’ll all be good."

"What a great idea. If they get married, everyone would be happy. If not, even if the issue blows over and no one talks about it, who would dare to marry the Store Manager’s sister once the Head Escort Master’s name is mentioned?"

"In the end, if the Store Manager’s sister can’t get married as she gets older, the rumors might be worse than now."

"Don’t talk nonsense. By your logic, you’d be saying it’s the Head Escort Master’s fault."

"That’s why I’m saying them getting married would make everyone happy."

"..."

"..."

As they spoke, they turned and saw Wang Kui standing in front of them and immediately called out, "Head Escort Master."

Wang Kui’s mouth twitched. These guys hadn’t stopped discussing this matter, surely in need of a lesson. With a cold expression, he said, "Come, let’s spar!"

The tone was clearly angry, and they quickly got ready.

Afterward, the courtyard was filled with the sounds of boxing and weapon clashing, the result of Wang Kui and his brothers sparring.
