Chapter 428: Forced Marriage

"What do you mean?" Xia Hua didn't understand.

"If a good person dies, and the bull head and horse face come to hook the soul, it is the appearance of kindness and kindness. If a bad person dies, the bull head and horse face are the face of the fierce god. Got it? What kind of person you are, what you see the world as it is. Shi De patted Xia Hua on the shoulder deeply: "Little Sister Xia, you have to be a good person in the future." A person's life should be spent in such a way that when you look back, you do not regret that you did not do good deeds, nor are you ashamed that you have not been blessed. In this way, when you are dying, you can say to Niu Tou Ma Mian: I am a good person, I have many good deeds and blessings, please take care of Niu Ge Ma Ge. ”

"Wow......" Xia Hua leaned back with a smile, "You have to pull a relationship even if you die, do you really think that Niu Tou Ma Mian can talk to you about human relations?" Okay, don't think about how to get close to the bull head and horse noodles, think about how to settle my mother first. ”

The Xia family arrived, and before they could knock on the door, the door opened, and Zheng Wenting with an angry face stood at the door.

Seeing Zheng Wenting's angry face, Shi's heart was half steady. If Zheng Wenting's face is calm, it is the most terrifying, because the storm brewing in the calm is the most intense. On the contrary, it is better to say that the anger in the heart is partially released through the expression, and the storm will not be too intense.

changed his shoes and entered the door, and saw that breakfast had been set on the dining table in the restaurant, Shi De glanced at Xia Hua, Xia Hua ignored Shi De, walked straight to the table and sat down, reached out and picked up a fritter to eat, but was knocked off by Zheng Wenting.

"It's not big, it's not too small." Zheng Wenting glanced at Xia Hua, "Shi De and I haven't served yet, you eat it, it's too rude." Xia Hua, you remember, your father is the biggest in the family, then me, then Shi De, and finally you. ”

"Why? It's not fair. Xia Hua pouted unconvinced, "Please, mother, don't talk about the Three Outlines and Five Constants, okay?" Now is a new society and a new period, and it is no longer a feudal society. ”

The three outlines refer to the monarch as the minister, the father as the son, and the husband as the wife. The five constants refer to benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faith. In the 2,000-year history of China from the Western Han Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty, the core values of Confucianism can be summed up as "three outlines and five constants".

"No matter what kind of society it is, respecting parents and respecting her husband is the virtue that a woman should have." Zheng Wenting didn't intend to refute Xia Hua's tirade, she turned to Shi De and said, "Shi De, sit." ”

Shi De honestly sat at the bottom of Xia Hua, and as soon as he sat down, he was pulled up by Zheng Wenting: "You sit under me, Xia Hua, you let go, sit under Shi De's head." ”

"Why?" Xia Hua stopped drying, "I've been sitting here before, why do I have to give way to him?" ”

"For when you are married, he will be your husband and the head of your household." Zheng Wenting ignored Xia Hua's dissatisfaction, and still arranged Shi De in the second place, at the top of Xia Hua, "Your father is not at home, if he is at home, your father will be in the main seat today, not me, understand?" Okay, sit down, let's start eating. ”

Although Shi De knew that he had not done anything, under the pressure of Zheng Wenting, he still sat down obediently, thinking that China's middle-aged and elderly women are really powerful, since the Han Dynasty, the queen and the queen mother have interfered in the government and want to control the fate of the country, and in the Tang Dynasty, there was finally a woman who ascended the highest throne and became a generation of empresses. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Empress Dowager Cixi was a master who was good at rectifying people and fighting in the palace.

However, what Shi De didn't know was that a few years later, the square dance that emerged everywhere in China made Chinese middle-aged and elderly women break out of the country and go to the world, becoming a spectacular landscape with Chinese characteristics.

Talking about eating or really eating, the three of them buried their heads in breakfast, no one said a word, and worked hard in silence, for more than ten minutes, except for the sound of drinking porridge, there was almost no sound at all.

I remember that the previous family rules of the Xia family were not so strict, Shi De thought sullenly while eating, and quietly peeked at Xia Hua, seeing that Xia Hua looked at her nose and nose, her mouth and mouth, and she seemed to be really eating with her heart, and she turned a blind eye to him, so he simply stopped having any hope for Xia Hua.

Forget it, if you come, you can be safe, just explain it to Zheng Wenting for a while, and it's not a big deal, not to mention that he and Xia Hua don't sleep together, except for shaking hands, they don't even have the common hand-holding behavior between lovers.

He was as innocent as a blank sheet of paper.

Finally finished breakfast, what did they eat, whether it was delicious or not, and Shi was not impressed. After the meal, he was directed by Zheng Wenting to sit down in the living room, and Zheng Wenting and Xia Hua cleaned up the dinner table together.

Thinking of the scenery when I came to the Xia family in the past, when I was regarded as a master by Zheng Wenting, and then when I was treated as a son-in-law by Zheng Wenting now-although it is a bit exaggerated to describe it as desolate, it is indeed not a small gap compared to the respect I received when I was a master-Shi De thought helplessly, what kind of son-in-law, it is better to be a master. When a son-in-law is angry, when a master is angry.

After Zheng Wenting and Xia Hua cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, the two came to the living room and sat next to Shi De.

"Shi De, the matter between you and Xiaohua has been decided first." Zheng Wenting looked calm, and took out the majesty of an elder, "If your parents are not around, just make your own decisions, Xiaohua's father is not around, I will make the decision for her father." Since you all live together, I don't have anything to say, you are all young, let's do things on May Day next year. ”

Yes? Shi De stood up suddenly: "No, Auntie, Xia Hua and I live together, but my house is a three-room house, and we don't sleep in the same bed......"

"Even if I believe you, outsiders won't believe it. If it spreads, Xiaohua's reputation will be ruined, who else can she marry besides marrying you? Zheng Wenting couldn't help but say, but still insisted on her thoughts, "You don't have to explain anything, with Xiaohua's life experience, appearance, and knowledge, she is also worthy of you." Your parents are not around, and the handling of the marriage will be handed over to the Xia family, so you don't have to worry about anything. ”

"Xia Hua, you have something to say." Shi De didn't want to marry Xia Hua like this, first, he didn't want to get married so early, and second, he always had a feeling of being forced to go to Liangshan, and he felt very uncomfortable, "We are innocent, nothing happened, we can't get married in a daze like this." ”

"You don't want to marry me, do you?" To Shi De's surprise, Xia Hua's focus on the problem was not whether she and he slept together, but on Shi De's attitude, "Do you think I'm not worthy of you, or do you not like me?" ”

"I ......" Shi De didn't expect Xia Hua to have such an attitude, and thought about it, Xia Hua has always had a soft spot for him, and now there is an opportunity to marry him, if she doesn't hurry up, she won't be Xia Hua, but although he doesn't like Xia Hua, if he wants him to marry Xia Hua now, it is really difficult for him to make a decision, "It's too sudden, I'm not ready to get married, and in my plan, I won't get married until I find my biological parents." Also, whoever I marry, I have to nod from He Ye. ”

"Your biological parents are now missing, and I don't know when they will be found, and I'm sure they don't want you to stay single forever. He Ye too, his old man doesn't know where he went, in case his old man doesn't show up, do you have to fight a bachelor for the rest of your life? Xia Hua retorted to Shi De's reasons one by one, "Shi De, whether you are Mr. Shi or Master Shi, you always want to get married, right?" Now that there is such a good opportunity in front of you, you are still pushing, what do you mean? ”

Shi De understood that Xia Hua used to keep saying that he was not her dish, but in fact, it was to hide her liking for him, but now he showed his true colors, and he had to marry him with a look of hatred, and he knew that unconsciously, Xia Hua had a deep love for him, and it had gone deep into the extent that he would not marry.

To marry or not to marry? Shi was in a dilemma, rejecting Xia Hua on the spot would be tantamount to rejecting the entire Xia family, which would not only make Xia Hua sad, but also unacceptable to Zheng Wenting. In Zheng Wenting's concept, whether he and Xia Hua slept together or not, living in the same room anyway meant that everything that should not have happened happened, and he had to be responsible for Xia Hua.

But if you really agree to marry Xia Hua, it seems to be too hasty. It is true that he doesn't hate Xia Hua, and even likes Xia Hua, and is willing to be with Xia Hua, and Xia Hua is a good girl in terms of life and life, she can be regarded as a good wife and mother, and with her background, she is indeed worthy of him.

It's just that Shi De always felt that agreeing to marry Xia Hua under such circumstances was not entirely out of his will, for him, it was difficult to settle after all, and it was not very fair to Xia Hua. Marriage is a lifelong event, not a child's play, and with his character, once he agrees, he will not regret it.

"Xiao Shi, if you have any ideas, just say it, Auntie will not embarrass you." Zheng Wenting is much more experienced than Xia Hua, and seeing that Shi De was slightly embarrassed, she knew that she couldn't be forced too hard, so she softened her tone, "If you think that Xia Hua is not worthy of you, or think that Auntie is forcing you to do this, just say it, and Auntie will understand your difficulties." ”

"It's not that Xia Hua is not worthy of me, she is beautiful, sensible, and capable, she is a very good girl, even He Ye said that whoever marries her is a blessing." Shi De actually has feelings for Xia Hua, all the way from Shancheng, he and Xia Hua have more and more contacts, and the relationship is getting closer and closer, the two of them have gone from strange to familiar, and then to have nothing to say, and have gone through a very memorable common time, if he and Xia Hua finally enter into marriage, in the eyes of outsiders, it is also a logical thing.
