Chapter 794: Chapter 795: If I Don’t Protect Her, Who Will?_1

Wang Youbao laughed and said, "You two don’t mind this, so just let her be; she’s happier this way."

"My, my, my," An Jing immediately teased, "you’re already so protective of her now that you’ve just married her."

Wang Youbao’s face flushed slightly, but he still said, "From now on, she will rely on me. If I don’t protect her, who will?"

Li Wuyu’s heart burst with joy upon hearing this.

An Jing nodded with satisfaction. Although she believed that a husband should be his wife’s sky, she was genuinely pleased because her friend sincerely cared for and protected her disciple.

Then An Jing teased again, "Now that you and Wuyu are married, shouldn’t you be calling me and my husband ’Master’ and ’Master’s husband’ as well?"

Wang Youbao was familiar with the proper etiquette. In fact, he and Li Wuyu had come to perform the tea ceremony for An Jing, his teacher, and Xiao Changyi, his teacher’s husband.

Upon hearing An Jing’s words, he didn’t immediately address An Jing and Xiao Changyi as ’Master’ and ’Master’s husband.’ Instead, he gestured for Yu Daming, who was following behind, to place cushions in front of An Jing and Xiao Changyi.

Seeing the cushions in Yu Daming’s hands and the tea in Yu Erming’s hands, An Jing understood that Wang Youbao and Li Wuyu were planning to pay their respects with tea. However, she didn’t speak up to stop them but simply watched the proceedings with a smile.

This was the local custom after all, and some things required adapting to the local ways.

Li Wuyu knelt before An Jing, and Wang Youbao knelt before Xiao Changyi. Both held tea, offering it respectfully, and called out in unison, "Master, Master’s husband, please drink the tea."

"Good," An Jing said with a smile as she took the tea from Li Wuyu’s hand and took a sip. Then she gave Li Wuyu a red envelope. While giving the red envelope, An Jing recited a few auspicious phrases, following the local custom.

Xiao Changyi said nothing and maintained a straight face, but he took the tea from Wang Youbao and had a sip, then gave Wang Youbao a red envelope.

After that, Li Wuyu and Wang Youbao stood up.

Then, it was Wang Youbao’s turn to kneel before An Jing, and Li Wuyu before Xiao Changyi, presenting fresh tea again: "Master, Master’s husband, please drink the tea."

Only after An Jing and Xiao Changyi had taken the tea and given red envelopes did Li Wuyu and Wang Youbao finally stand up; there was no need to kneel anymore.

Yu Daming hurried to take the cushions away.

Yu Erming also withdrew.

Only then did An Jing laugh and say, "Youbao, to be honest, it feels really odd to have you call me ’Master’ now."

Wang Youbao said, "You are Wuyu’s Master, and now that Wuyu is my wife, it’s proper for me to address you this way." He paused, "I also find it a bit awkward, but after some time, once I get used to it, it should be okay."

An Jing knew that time would make it easier, so she didn’t dwell on the topic.

"Wuyu is rather straightforward but also incredibly pure hearted. If she ever upsets you, please, don’t hold it against her." As Li Wuyu’s master, she naturally had to say a few words a senior ought to say.

Wang Youbao smiled and said, "She’s great just the way she is." He paused, "I’ve never really been angry with her, so there’s no question of holding anything against her. Master, you can rest assured."

An Jing nodded, satisfied, and smiled at Li Wuyu, finally feeling like a daughter was getting married.

Even though she was only four years older than Li Wuyu.

...

On the twelfth of September, An Jing was informed by Meng Zhuqing that the tube cart was completed. However, it was unclear how to place the tube cart in the water and how to operate it, and she was asked to come and give guidance.

And so, An Jing went to offer guidance, accompanied by Xiao Changyi and their four children.
