Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The entire Pei family was enveloped in a joyous atmosphere. Pei Qingshen was extrely happy. He had to be busy preparing for the engagent banquet, booking the banquet, and sending out the invitations. The first thing he had to do was to send them to Old Wang next door!
With just a glance, the butler, who was in tears, imdiately understood!
Only then did Du ilan notice that everyone else was there to witness the scene. Only her friend, who had drunk too much, was still sitting in the dining room with her head lowered and her hands supporting her head.
She was completely unaware of what was happening around him.
“My dear sister, Pei Huai has proposed to your precious daughter. Now, we’re really in-laws,” she said excitedly to Xu Mingzhi, but Xu Mingzhi did not move.
She nudged Xu Mingzhi’s elbow, but Xu Mingzhi did not budge.
She looked like the famous sculpture of the Thinker.
She was so drunk
Did she really drink too much?
Du ilan tilted her head.
How could she not wake up at such an important mont for his daughter?
When she sobered up tomorrow and found out what she had missed, hshe would definitely be very regretful.
Du ilan thought that she had to hurry up and make hangover tea for her!
Just as she turned around and headed to the kitchen, Xu Mingzhi’s fingers that were supporting his forehead made creaking sounds.
The beautiful tendons on the back of her hand tensed up.
That kid…had finally taken down her precious daughter!
Actually, when Pei Huai had asked his daughter to marry him, Xu Mingzhi had already sobered up!
However, she did not dare to look.
After two lifetis, her daughter had finally been proposed to. Moreover, it was not an arranged marriage. It was a marriage with the man she had chosen.
As a mother, how could she not be excited at this mont?
When she saw her daughter getting married, she felt that she could die without regrets.
In her previous life, when her daughter was 21 years old, she should have died long ago. In this life, she felt that she had earned the few years she lived.
She really wanted her daughter to be happy, but at the sa ti, she couldn’t bear to see it, so she simply didn’t look at it, lest she couldn’t help but send the ring flying at the critical mont.
She took out her phone from under the table, opened WeChat, and found the account that seed to have been abandoned.
The content of the chat was from last week.
[ Su Cunyi: “Is Su Ji feeling better?” ]
[ Su Cunyi: “There’s been a high temperature warning recently. When you go out, ask the driver to park the car in a cool place…” ]
Xu Mingzhi never replied.
At this mont, she propped her head up and typed under the table with one hand.
She quickly typed out a ssage and clicked send.
[ “Prepare your outfit for the engagent ceremony. Don’t embarrass our daughter on that day!” ]
Half a minute later, Su Cunyi’s call ca in!
On the third morning after Su Ji beca soone’s fiancée, she sat in the Xu family’s dining room and ate the three-colored rice porridge made by Aunt Wu.
She stirred the bowl of porridge with the spoon in her hand, and the heat that was covered in the thick porridge dissipated in large waves.
She clenched her other hand. The ring was really shiny.
Su Ji leisurely admired it for a while.
Other than the sports car and the jade bracelet, this was the third thing she liked very much.
Aunt Wu was very happy. Recently, the two families had already begun to prepare for the engagent party. The eldest miss’ husband’s family was especially active and sent people to send things over every two or three days.
The third master of the Pei family was in charge of the engagent dress. When she had just finished the design drafts, he sent soone to send them over. There were a total of three drafts, so Su Ji could choose one that she liked.
Su Ji had difficulty choosing, so Aunt Wu chatted with the person who delivered the design drafts, saying that their young miss was good-looking and would look good in any outfit.
In the end, the person passed on the ssage and Pei Huai had all three gowns made.
Aunt Wu was right. His fiancée was very beautiful. She was a natural clothes hanger. She looked beautiful in any of the three gowns, so no matter which one she chose, the other two would be a pity.
Just like that, Su Ji would have three sets of clothes for the engagent party.
The couple was too sweet, and the people around them who were single wanted to fall in love. Those who were in love wanted to get married, those who were married wanted to have children, and after having children, they wanted to have a second child!
Even Aunt Wu was starting to get restless. She told Su Ji that she was in a twilight relationship at her age and probably couldn’t have any more children. However, she had thought about what to na her children if she had one.
At that ti, she hadn’t gotten to know Uncle He yet, so she used the surna wu.
She said that if she had a son, she would call him Wu Suowei. If she had a
daughter…then she’ll na her Wu Zhu’er… She thought that the na was cute.
Su Ji looked at her imdiately.
Aunt Wu blinked. “Miss, you don’t like it?”
Su Ji used the words of her fiancé. “The na Wu Zhu’er is unlucky.”
Aunt Wu nodded calmly. She was a superstitious person. She might not care about anything else, but if it was unlucky, she wouldn’t use it!
Today was Pei Huai’s third ti coming to Bian Tong’s courtyard.
The first two tis he ca, the courtyard was empty and he didn’t see Bian Tong.
Today was the third ti he ca, and it was still the sa.
Ti stopped in the courtyard. The tables and chairs were as clean as new, and the plants were green all year round. However, such a magical land could not keep a person who was going to be punished by the heavens. After Su Ji returned, Bian Tong did not appear again.
Pei Huai roughly knew what was going on.
He had promised Bian Tong that he would protect him for the rest of his life until he finished his punishnt.
Pei Huai would keep his promise.
However, the most important thing now was to find him.
“ow
“ow –
He felt a furry touch on his pants and looked down. It was the wild cat with spots that he had seen the last ti he ca to the courtyard.
It was thinner than the last ti he saw it, and it was not as cold as the last ti. This ti, it was very coquettish, as if it wanted to ask for sothing from soone.
Pei Huai asked what it wanted, and the cat bit his trouser leg and moved to the side.
Pei Huai followed it for a while.
In the grass under the wall, there were small things moving. His clean palms pushed aside the grass that blocked his vision.
“ow
Pairs of shiny cat eyes were staring at him.
Inside was a litter of kittens.
The cat didn’t lose weight, but gave birth.
The courtyard had lost its owner and was short of food. The kittens had been hungry for many days.
At this mont, they were all chewing on leaves like rabbits. It did not look very delicious.
Pei Huai noticed that the cat had given birth to a total of nine kittens. Eight of them were covered in spots, and only one was completely blue without any patterns.
The kitten was also unsociable. The others were all chewing on the leaves, but it was chewing on a hard and round thing in its mouth.
That thing was glowing in the grass. Pei Huai saw it clearly. It was a coin that soone had dropped in the grass.
What a little money-grubber…
