As soon as Ying Shu looked up, he saw two people at the back of the crowd.

He frowned slightly, put the meat cleaver on the meat mound, instructed the stall vendor next to him to help take care of it, wiped his greasy hands and walked over.

"Why are you here?" Ying Shu asked in surprise, his gaze falling on Huo Jinshen's arm on Yan Xi's shoulder.

Yan Xi turned his head to look over, smiled and greeted: "Dad." ”

Huo Jinshen: "Father-in-law." ”

Ying Shu's face darkened, and he said gloomily, "What did you say?"

There was a lot of noise around him, and Ying Shu felt that he didn't hear clearly. Huo Jin said deeply: "Father-in-law, there are too many people here, we will tell you more when we go back." ”

At this moment, Ying Shu was sure that he had heard correctly, and was about to say something, when Yan Xi suddenly said seriously: "Dad, I really have something to say to you." I'll go buy some food with Huo Jinshen first, and I'll go home with you when you get off the stall. ”

Ying Shu glanced at Huo Jinshen with a gloomy face, then looked at Yan Xi, and walked back to his stall without saying a word.

This time, his knife action was even more ruthless, and the people on the side felt that he was a little wrong and was not in a good mood, so they asked, "Lao Ying, what's wrong with you?"

Yan Xi retracted his gaze, glared at Huo Jinshen and said, "Who asked you to call your father-in-law." ”

With Ying Shu's many years of criminal investigation experience, his father-in-law knew what was going on just this one, but he was also a father, and he must have panicked when he was called his father-in-law without any psychological preparation.

Huo Jin touched his nose deeply and said innocently: "Sooner or later, you have to know, let him get familiar with it first." ”

Yan Xi also lost his temper, and said, "Buy more food in a while, you have to please him." ”

The two went around the vegetable market and bought a lot of vegetables. Yan Xi's popularity in the vegetable market is high, although she rarely comes here, most people know that she is a flower of the Ying family, many young men see Yan Xi coming over for nothing, Gui fish, grass chicken, crabs stuffed her hands, Huo Jin Shen looked depressed, and returned a lot of money.

Yan Xi poked him with his elbow and took the opportunity to show off: "See how popular I am here." I'm the flower of the Yangdong vegetable market. ”

Huo Jinshen coughed lightly: "Yan Xi, when those women wanted to give me away for nothing just now, I didn't take anything." ”

Yan Xi glanced at him: "Nonsense, you don't know people, what's the matter with taking other people's for nothing?"

Huo Jin shook his head speechlessly, this is a double standard......

When I walked to the response tree stall, Ying Shu was already closing the stall, so he shouldn't have the heart to set up a stall. However, the pork on his side is fresh, and there are many old customers, and there are not a few pieces of meat left, all of which were packed by Ying Shu, and he threw it to Yan Xi and said, "Take it back and cook it." ”

Huo Jinshen silently took it from Yan Xi's hand to his own hand.

The three of them returned to Yingshu's old building together.

Ying Shu was in a bad mood, and after entering his room, he closed the door.

Huo Jin glanced at the door panel, then looked at Yan Xi and said, "Are you in such a bad mood?"

Yan Xi glanced at him and said lightly: "When you marry your daughter, you will know what mood it is." ”

She pushed him into the kitchen: "You go wash the vegetables first, and I'll cook later." ”

Yan Xi took two bottles of beer from the refrigerator, intending to enlighten the old father, but when he walked to the door, he was grabbed by Huo Jinshen's arm, he took the beer to his own hand, and said: "I begged his daughter from his hand, and it should be me to say it." ”

With that, he crossed Yan Xi and walked to Ying Shu's room.

Yan Xi was stunned, and finally went with him.

Huo Jin knocked on the door twice, and when he pushed the door in, he smelled a faint smell of smoke and saw the back of Ying Shu on the balcony.

The sunset light fell on the man's body, looking lonely and lonely, for a moment, Huo Jinshen seemed to see himself decades later.

He thought that if he hadn't met Yan Xi, decades later, maybe he would be like Ying Shu.

Leaning on the balcony to watch the sun waning, accompanied by a cool breeze.

"What are you doing at the door, come here. Ying Shu's voice was no longer loud, and there was a taste of vicissitudes of melancholy.

Huo Jinshen closed the door and walked over. He placed a can of beer on the palm-wide guardrail and pulled the pull tab with a "pop". He looked into the distance and said, "I proposed to Yan Xi today." ”

Ying Shu didn't look at him, and after taking a long puff of cigarette, he slowly exhaled it, and the white smoke was as thick as his heavy heart.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the blood-red sun in the sky, and said slowly: "She grew up next to her mother, and I didn't spend many days with her...... She has suffered a lot of grievances, and she actually has a very hard time in the Yan family...... But she is too sensible and carries everything by herself...... Hey, it's me who didn't do a good job as a father......"

"It's been quiet all these years, and I hope she can stay with me for a few more years...... Hey, but she's grown up and has her own life, and if she misses it, she's gone......"

Ying Shu didn't drink a sip of wine, but he seemed to be drunk and spoke incoherently, Huo Jin listened in silence, he could hear his reluctance and guilt from the man's messy words.

He said: "I will be good to Yan Xi." ”

Ying Shu continued to say something, but when he heard the words, he paused and turned his head to look at him. He looked at Huo Jinshen blankly for a long time, and Huo Jinshen continued: "I won't let her be bullied again, including me." We will spend the rest of our lives with each other, and I will not leave her, and if we have children, I will not leave our children. ”

For an ordinary father, Ying Shu hopes to be a man who accompanies his daughter for the rest of his life, but that's it.

Don't ask that man to make Yan Xi the first person in the world, how noble and dazzling, don't ask to give her gold and silver, it's enough to promise to accompany her for a lifetime.

Ying Shu took a heavy breath and asked, "Boy, do you know what I do?"

Huo Jinshen smiled faintly and said, "Twenty years ago, you were a spear god with first-class skills, and now, you are a sword god. Yan Xi said that you can dissect a pig with your eyes closed. ”

Huo Jinshen was once curious about the tree, and asked someone to investigate, knowing that his true identity was covered up, but the gun god was true.

Ying Shu snorted and said, "It's good that you know." Boy, if you say big things in front of me, you'll know how good I am. As a father, if his daughter is wronged, she will do anything. ”

Huo Jinshen didn't take it as a joke, he thought about it seriously, picked up the beer and said to Ying Shu: "Swear in the name of the sunset." ”

He didn't want to be like Ying Shu in his later years, smoking and drinking alone to accompany the sunset.

In the kitchen, Yan Xi washed the dishes, and turned his head to look out of the door from time to time, Huo Jinshen did not come out, and the old father did not come out.

Isn't it going to be a fight in there?

However, there was no movement inside, and the silence made Yan Xi think that it was not necessary that he might be asleep.

She shook the droplets of water from her hands, intending to go in and take a look, but finally patiently finished washing the dishes.

After a while, Huo Jinshen and Ying Shu finally came out, but Ying Shu didn't come to the kitchen, and the sound of the TV came from the living room. Huo Jin flashed in and raised her sleeves to help her.

Yan Xi got up the oil pot, glanced at him and said, "What did you talk to my dad about?"

Huo Jin raised his eyebrows deeply, and said mysteriously, "I won't tell you." ”

Yan Xi wrinkled his nose at him and said disdainfully: "I know if you don't say it." To get past my dad's level, you're going to have a lot of sycophants. My dad drinks and loves tea. He also likes to collect knives, did you promise to give him a piece of a master?"

Huo Jin glanced at her deeply, took the opportunity to hug her and said, "Thank you wife for releasing the water, I'll let people prepare when I turn around." ”

What Ying Shu likes, Huo Jinshen really doesn't know. He just made an oath in response, but in the future, during the New Year's holidays, he probably had a direction for what to send.

Yan Xi pushed him away with his elbow, glanced at the door and said vigilantly: "You are crazy, do your hands and feet under my father's nose." ”

Although the old father relented, Huo Jinshen was so unscrupulous that he might provoke the old father to deny it.

Huo Jinshen was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "I know now, the water spilled by the daughter who got married." You're towards me, I'm happy. ”

Yan Xi glanced at him and said, "Who is facing you." I didn't want to stab my dad in the heart. ”

She has been dating Huo Jinshen for a while, and Ying Shu has also adapted, but marriage is a major event in life, and the old father is not in shock.

The two of them struggled in the kitchen, and finally made a table of dishes. Ying Shu took out the soaked bayberry wine, Huo Jin took a deep look, and said in his heart why it was not mulberry wine.

It seems that the ban will not be completely lifted until the marriage certificate is obtained.

This meal, Ying Shu was sad and happy, Huo Jinshen drank a lot of wine with him, and even Yan Xi drank a lot.

Yan Xi dismantled a crab and naturally handed it to Huo Jinshen, Ying Shu's gaze came over, Huo Jinshen hurriedly returned it and said, "Xiaoxi, you eat more." ”

Ying Shu then withdrew his gaze.

After dinner, Yan Xi asked Huo Jinshen to wash the dishes, and he accompanied Ying Shu to watch TV in the living room.

At first, the father and daughter had nothing to say, Ying Shu stared at the TV, and Yan Xi peeled sugar and fried chestnuts for him.

The chestnut shells were crispy, and when they were peeled off, they beeped, and Yan Xi put the chestnuts on the plate one by one.

During the advertisement, Yan Xi said casually: "Dad, Huo Jinshen proposed to me today." ”

Ying Shu pinched a chestnut and ate it, and said, "I know, you don't need to show off." ”

Yan Xi licked the smell of chestnuts on her fingers, it was very fragrant and sweet, and she said: "It's not a simple marriage proposal, it's the kind with technical content." ”

Ying Shu turned his head to look over, his eyes were indifferent, Yan Xi sucked his fingers, as if he was still recalling the sweetness of the time, and there was a shallow smile on his cheeks.

He shook his head, the woman didn't stay.

Yan Xi told Huo Jinshen how to propose to her, and after listening, Ying Shu knew how meaningful this proposal was.

A well-planned marriage proposal represents a man's sincerity, and as long as the "deep" characters are interviewed, everyone will know their good news.

Huo Jinshen really had a heart to do this.

Yan Xi said that these were not to show off, but just to reassure Ying Shu. She said, "Dad, I'll take Huo Jinshen to tell you the good news first, so that you won't be jealous, right?"

Ying Shu frowned slightly: "...... over there of the Huo family"

In the end, the Huo family is a famous family, first him and then the Huo family, Yan Xi does this, which is tantamount to looking down on the Huo family. In this way, the people of the Huo family will have even more opinions about her.

Yan Xi said indifferently: "The Huo family, it is estimated that after my interview comes out, they will know my good news like everyone else." ”

Yan Bei, under Yan Xi's instructions, would not go back to mention it. As for the other staff members present, there was a marriage proposal ceremony in the interview session, and this kind of popular topic must be kept secret first, and it will not be leaked in advance.

Ying Shu looked at Yan Xi strangely and asked, "You want to draw a line with that side?"

Yan Xi smiled faintly, reached out and pinched a chestnut to eat, she said: "The Yan family didn't treat me as their own in the first place, so why should I have a hot face and a cold butt?"

The people of the Yan family will not be kind to her just because she values them. On the contrary, she married Huo Jinchen, and Yan Zhengyu took the opportunity to ask Huo Jinshen to buy back the shares of the jade mine.

After the matter of the jade mine was resolved, Yan Zhengyu wanted to get another piece of the pie, but Yan Xi politely refused, and now that Yiyantang wants to make jewelry, Yan Zhengyu will definitely bring it up again.

The jade mine is a move made by Yan Xibu, Yan Zhengyu wants to stretch out her hand, and she will lay it out again.

For the Yan family, she no longer has much family affection to speak of.

"The stronger I am, the more jealous the old man will only be of me. This time, I pulled back a city and told him that I would support Yan Bei, and there would be a short period of peace, but we would not go back to the past. The false rapprochement has been pierced, and I am not going to mend it. ”

Ying Shu knew about Yan Xi moving out of the Yan Mansion from Shen Xuan, and at that time she also avoided Liangcheng and stayed in Liangcheng for two months.

He took a deep breath and said, "It's okay for you to get out of there, save your anger." Yiyantang relies on you to have today, and you should have countered the Yan family a long time ago. If it weren't for your mother......"

Ying Shu frowned and had nothing to say to Shen Makeup.

He knew very well what Shen makeup looked like, she was a dependent woman and didn't have any big ideas. It was her luck to marry into the Yan family, but Yan Xi followed her, but it became Yan Xi's misfortune.

It seems that Shen Makeup has brought glory and wealth to Yan Xi, and women are expensive by their mothers, but in fact, on the contrary, it is Yan Xi who has won Shen Makeup stability over the years.

Yan Xi sighed and said, "So, I want to have my own home, don't worry about other people's affairs, and concentrate on my own small family." Dad, Huo Jin is not bad. I'm on a par with him, I don't depend on him, and he doesn't depend on me. ”

"We can work together and be separate. If one day, he doesn't need me, or I don't need him anymore, we can both live well. I think this kind of marriage is right for me. ”

Yan Xi's character is not counting on others to save her, or someone else who gives her happiness, she relies on herself to fight for everything she wants. Striving towards a clear goal, too sharp in the eyes of others, such a woman, most men can't control, this is the reason why no one dares to love her.

But Huo Jinshen is different, he just looks at her with appreciation. He won't let her be attached to him and try to control her, and he won't use her as a tool to make her work for profit.

She and Huo Jinshen have the same requirements, they just accompany each other.

Ying Shu nodded, he understood Yan Xi and understood what she meant. Immediately, he knocked Yan Xi's head again: "Good luck, what nonsense." is ready to get married, how can you say separated. ”

Yan Xi covered her head and stuck out her tongue, her father's hand was strong enough, and it made her brain pop and hurt to death. But she coaxed the old father and didn't jump up to protest.

Yan Xi continued to peel the shell and said: "Dad, now many people do a good job of property notarization before getting married. This notarization of property is to prepare for future divorce. It's good when it's good, but if you can't get along one day, it's easy to get divorced. It's called planning ahead. ”

Ying Shu, as a person of the last century, still has a part of machismo, as well as feudal ideas. He didn't like this kind of notarization of property, and he didn't like happy events to be said with bad things, so he said, "That kid said that if he betrays you in the future, he will leave the house." ”

Yan Xi's eyes widened, Huo Jinshen said this kind of thing in order to coax his father-in-law, it was enough to spend blood!

She stuffed a chestnut into her mouth and said excitedly: "Dad, did he tell you how much wealth he has?"

Yan Xi only knew that Huo Jin was rich and powerful, but she never paid attention to the specifics.

Ying Shu was stunned for a moment, patted his thigh and said, "I knew that kid drew a big cake and ran the train with his mouth full." ”

Yan Xi covered her mouth and smiled secretly, she said seriously: "That's fine." If I betray him first in the future, won't it become that I want to leave the house?"

Ying Shu glared at her with hairy eyes: "You kid is really open-mouthed." ”

He raised his arm to beat her, Yan Xi hurriedly dodged, but heard a cold voice sound: "Who did you just say you were going to betray?"

Yan Xi trembled and looked at Huo Jinshen, who had just finished washing the dishes and chopsticks and was dusting off the shirt that had reached his elbows.

Yan Xi laughed twice and said, "What did I say...... This chestnut is delicious, would you like to try it?"

……

Because they all drank wine, and Huo Jinshen was recognized by Ying Shu, he could be regarded as a son-in-law who had not passed the door, so he left both of them for the night this time.

It's just that there aren't enough rooms, Yan Xi sleeps in her room, Huo Jinshen could have shared a room with Ying Shu, but he refused and built a nest in the living room.

In the middle of the night, Huo Jinshen quietly knocked on Yan Xi's door, and heard a cough next door, so he had to retreat and obediently nest back on the sofa.

The old man's sword is not old, and he reacts immediately at the slightest movement, which makes him helpless.

Huo Jin lay on her back with her arms behind her head and looked at the ceiling, closing her eyes. After a while, the door opened a crack, and a figure slipped out of the room, tiptoed to the edge of the couch, and looked down at the sleeping man.

She squatted down, stretched out a finger and gently poked the man's arm, and said angrily, "Don't pretend, I know you're not asleep." ”

Huo Jin opened her eyelids and looked at her, Yan Xi said, "I can't sleep, go downstairs and walk around a few times?"

Then, the two crept out the door.

In autumn, the night at one o'clock in the morning was silent, Yan Xi pulled Huo Jinshen to the fitness equipment in the community. There was a gym equipment that could be bent down to do sit-ups, she sat up, patted the empty seat next to her and said, "Sit down." ”

Huo Jinshen sat back to back with her, and Yan Xi said, "Why did you mention it to the Huo family?"

Huo Huaiyin is his adoptive father after all, and he is different from Yan Donglin. Yan Xi can ignore Yan Donglin because she has already repaid the Yan family. She knew that Huo Huaiyin still had a lot of weight in Huo Jinshen's heart.

Intellectually speaking, Yan Xi hoped to wait until the interview report came out before going to Huo's house. At that time, she had fame, Huo Huaiyin would not look down on her too much, she was more confident.

But emotionally speaking, if he didn't go to Huo's house until that time, Huo Huaiyin would definitely be very disappointed in Huo Jinshen and would be sad.

Huo Jin looked at a star above his head, and he said calmly: "I don't need Huo Huaiyin or Feng Su to go to your father to propose marriage." When I was at your house just now, I had already proposed marriage to your father, and even the dowry had already been negotiated. ”

Yan Xi was stunned, they talked for so long, and they even negotiated the dowry?

Yan Xi's back was pushed back, and he asked casually, "How much dowry do you give?"

Huo Jinshen gave her a back, so that Yan Xi had to carry him, and the man sat up again and said, "I'll know when the time comes." ”

Yan Xi pursed his lips, and Huo Jinshen continued the previous topic: "But I have a family, and the Huo family still needs to be notified." Wait for your interview to come out. ”

Yan Xi knew what he was thinking.

No matter what the Huo family thinks of her, they will definitely be together. But he did this just to make her feel better on the Huo family's side and less to suffer from the white eyes there. Although she has long been used to it, she doesn't care anymore.

Yan Xi thought for a while, sighed and said, "Huo Jinshen, a person's heart can be divided into two. As far as you are concerned, the Huo family has lost Wen Ruan, and you hate them, but Huo Huaiyin has the grace of nurturing you and is an important person. ”

"The ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws, so let's go early. I defeated Qin Shuangyin, and I returned to the helm of Yiyantang and became the vice president, and my status was improved. They don't want to see me, and they may not be able to see me after the character interview comes out. ”

Huo Jinshen turned his head to look at her: "Ugly daughter-in-law, have you thought clearly?"

Yan Xi nodded, ignoring his ugly daughter-in-law. "Hmm. ”

Huo Jinshen turned his head again and looked at the dark night sky in front of him.

The night breeze blew and made people feel sleepy. Yan Xi was in a good mood and hummed a song low. Suddenly, she stopped, her eyes glancing behind her: "Huo Jinshen?"

"Huh, why don't you sing?"

Yan Xi licked his lips, turned around and kissed his face, and said, "You made my dad very happy today, thank you." ”

It's very sad to marry a daughter, Huo Jinshen coaxed him well, and Yan Xi wanted to reward him.

Huo Jin looked at her deeply and said dissatisfiedly: "Your reward will always be so stingy. ”

Yan Xi knelt on the equipment, held his face and said, "Then how is it generous?"

Huo Jin looked at her eyes bright, like stars, he pinched her chin, tilted his head and printed her lips, and hooked his arm around her waist to let her lie in his arms......

After a long time, a low voice of protest rang out.

"No, there's a camera here, I don't want to be famous in this neighborhood. ”

Huo Jin took a few deep breaths and complained to the woman resentfully: "You are annoyed to death......"
