Chapter 825: never give up
Chapter 825 Never give up
Xia Moyan nodded: "It's exactly what I want."
As a mother-in-law, what I consider is how to protect my daughter and keep a tight rein on my brother-in-law.
The Xia family is unattainable, and asking for marriage can bring huge benefits, but it does not come without costs. Only by being betrothed forever can one be worthy of being married to a phoenix.
Thus, without Xia Ling and Li Lei knowing anything, the matter was settled.
Xia Ling heard her brother's statement and looked at him in surprise, then turned to look at Li Lei.
Li Lei's expression remained as usual: "I am willing to protect Xiao Ling forever."
The ceremony is completed.
Fireworks were lit up in the night sky to celebrate the return of the phoenix.
Amidst the lively celebrations, several people stepped back from the altar. Before they had gone far, Xia Ling grabbed her brother and asked, "Serving forever, what's going on?"
Xia Moyan looked calm: "He will love you forever and ever."
Xia Ling was silent.
Xia Moyan said: "Tonight is an all-night banquet, with wine, meat, singing and dancing. You guys have a good time to relax. You are tired over the years." After saying that, he excused himself and left the two of them.
In the night sky, the fireworks are still gorgeous and magnificent.
Xia Ling felt a little depressed and sat down on a big rock next to her.
"It's cold here, let's go sit inside." Li Lei said, "Why are you unhappy?"
Xia Ling raised her head and looked at him: "Will you love me forever?"
Li Lei was startled: "Why not? My brother said that I will always be yours."
“Are you always mine?” she asked softly again.
Li Lei smiled: "What's wrong with you today? Returning to the family and signing a contract are all good things. Why are you so weird after the ceremony is completed? Is it because you are not used to your new identity?"
Xia Ling was silent for a long time and did not speak.
She really wanted to ask Li Lei, what should he do if one day she no longer loves him, but he is still stuck in it and cannot extricate himself, and even cannot get rid of his love for her forever? Sauvignon Blanc is heart-breaking. The only thing more painful than Sauvignon Blanc is unrequited love plus Sauvignon Blanc.
However, she didn't dare to ask. The question was too disappointing and she was afraid that he would be sad. She cheered up and forced a smile: "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired. You suddenly became mine, which gave me the illusion of getting married early." But she made up her mind to ask her brother if the contract was valid. There is no way to untie it.
Li Lei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Silly girl, we already have children, and we should have gotten married a long time ago. When I go back this time, I will invite a big matchmaker to come to propose marriage, and hurry up and get the marriage done."
She nodded: "Okay."
There was a slight warmth in his eyes. He also called her stupid. In fact, he himself was so stupid that it made people feel bad. Do he know what the eternal contract means? So unfair. Perhaps, with his intelligence, he had long been like a mirror in his heart, but he was still willing and even happy.
How much does he love her? She couldn't help but put her arms around his waist and buried her head on his chest: "I will do everything I can to be good to you." This was her promise. At this moment, she told herself that she was responsible for him. , never change your mind.
“What a silly girl.” Li Lei still laughed at her, the bright fireworks reflected in his eyes, as gorgeous as a dream. He looked very happy, holding her hand and blending into the crowd of people at the celebration.
Over there, Aunt Liu went to the banquet to get a lot of food and returned to Father Ye. "Come on, you will often have this roasted hare meat with passion fruit. It's so delicious. How can it be so delicious? And this salmon fillet, I don't know what kind of fruit wine is made from it, wild mountain mushrooms... I'm telling you, Lao Ye Ah, this experience was not in vain. I didn’t expect such delicacies to exist in this remote country. No wonder the housekeeper hurried to Haikou and said that the rice here costs 100,000 yuan.”
She was shouting loudly while eating, foaming at the mouth.
Ye’s father was still immersed in a sad mood, not very interested, and didn’t say anything.
Aunt Liu grabbed a piece of meat in her hand and bumped him with her elbow: "Hey, go get me some pig's trotters. I want the kind marinated in red wine. I just saw someone eating it over there. It's so fragrant." , simply amazing!”
Ye’s father stood up sadly and went to serve her the pig’s trotters.
When the pig's trotters were brought back, Aunt Liu said: "I tell you, Lao Ye, come and eat quickly. One is enough for me, but two are not a loss! When we were leaving, we asked them to make something for us and give it to Feifei. Take it back and let her taste this pure natural and pollution-free delicacy! Why don't you say anything? What are you thinking about? I tell you, that stinky girl must be someone else's daughter. It's useless for you to think about it in the future. It’s Feifei who will support you until your death!”
Father Ye came back to his senses, smiled bitterly, picked up a pig's trotter and stuffed it into his mouth.
Aunt Liu praised: "That's right! No big deal is bigger than eating! Come on, eat more. Don't worry, these mountain people really seem to have some money. They have good food and clothing." After living here for two days, even if she was blind, she could tell that this place was not poor. Although she had not yet realized how much money the Xia family had, at least they were wealthy.
Her mind was aroused again, thinking about how to get more money back.
The two of them were eating when suddenly, a Xia clan member came over and struck up a conversation: "Are you Mr. Ye and Mrs. He Ye? It's a pleasure to meet you."
Aunt Liu was eating vigorously when she was suddenly disturbed by someone. She raised her head and glanced at the person. I saw that the person was a middle-aged and elderly woman with gray hair. Although she was wearing a cyan sacrificial dress of good material like the rest of the tribe, she could not hide her sallow skin and weathered face.
Aunt Liu asked while eating: "Who are you?"
“My name is Xia Shujuan, Mrs. Ye, you can just call me Shujuan.”
It was the first time that Aunt Liu was called Madam. She felt quite fresh and contented, and her favorability towards Shujuan increased rapidly. She smiled and said, "It turns out to be Shujuan. Come on, come and sit. Don't be so polite. Come drink and eat meat."
Xia Shujuan followed her instructions and sat next to her.
After eating two symbolic pieces of meat, the two women chatted. Xia Shujuan said, "Mrs. Ye, congratulations. You are so lucky to have a nirvana phoenix in your family."
Aunt Liu sneered: "What's the use? Didn't you see that the parent-child relationship was severed on the altar?"
"You can't say that," Xia Shujuan said, "I heard that families who have been fostered by Phoenix will be blessed."
"Tch, what kind of blessing? I haven't made back the money I spent raising her all these years." Aunt Liu said exaggeratedly. Suddenly she remembered something and asked curiously, "You guys keep saying she is from Phoenix, why didn't I read it? Come out? Can you tell me why she is a phoenix? "
"So you don't know yet?" Xia Shujuan said, "This phoenix is actually just a legend circulated in the Xia family. It is said that she will be reincarnated."
