Chapter 15: The Marriage Contract
"Knock knock!!"
Short footsteps rang out through the door that Grandma Lily had blocked, and where the sunlight hadn't sneaked in, a girl with her own aura stepped out.
As the sun gathers in front of the stone steps, her long pale yellow dress is filled with warm light, which seems to blend in with the natural environment.
When she smiled, the charming dimples on her face instantly made Xiao Can get drunk.
The point is that she looks similar to the sister who spoke, but she is more exciting and dazzling to Xiao Can.
The only difference is that she is more generous than the one who is down-and-out. Because she walked directly towards the small jar with a quiet fragrance, and at the same time stuffed a few of the fruits she was holding in her hand into the small jar, and touched his coarse hair by the way, and smiled heartily.
This sudden behavior naturally shortened the distance between him and Xiao Can, making Xiao Can's situation less embarrassing. However, it was precisely because the small can was the closest, so when I heard what she said, I instantly felt that it was difficult to breathe again.
"Hee-hee..."
"Grandma, don't embarrass my little brother-in-law!"
"Xiao Qian, who is running around, but I still have to rely on him to find the Sunstone!"
As she spoke, she didn't forget to increase the strength of her palm to cover the hair of the small can, and she never got tired of it.
In an instant, the warm sunlight passed through her fingers, evaporating the fragrance of the golden fruit, which remained on the hair and body of the small jar.
However, I don't know if the temperature in her palm is too high, or Xiao Can didn't dare to breathe for a while after hearing these words, anyway, Xiao Can blushed and froze and didn't dare to speak.
"The stones of the sun have all been lost by him, and the marriage contract is afraid that it will not be counted."
“…”
"Alright, you two don't make trouble!"
"Bai Cao, you can take him in to rest first."
Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, Grandma Lily immediately lifted her tone and yelled at these two good-looking people, making them stop their verbal argument.
"Smack."
However, the words are not shocking and endless. This voice is like bringing back to reality the small jar that has just walked through the abyss.
The words "little brother-in-law" and "marriage contract" that they came casually made the little jar messy. It seems that he is also beginning to understand that his sister's desire to talk at home today is covered up, and it turns out that they all have ulterior motives.
It's just that he didn't have time to think much about what was going on at the moment, and his whole body softened, and he was powerless to refute.
And the most obvious manifestation is that the fruits in his arms, as if they were not fragrant in an instant, began to find their home without an owner.
At the same time, the mud stains on his body, which had been dried by the scorching sun, also began to fall off with the fragrance of the earth and the smell of the sun.
Instead of picking up the fruit, the little can licked his lips again, wondering how he could question their conversation. But as soon as he wanted to speak, the smell of blood gradually rising in his mouth did not agree. It seems that he was pulled into the abyss again for another purpose, adding fuel and vinegar.
Because Rao has just experienced a vicious battle, and he is not so tormented by the current psychological warfare.
So when he slowly finished talking about the question in his heart, he didn't know how long it had been.
“… You said... Am I your brother-in-law? ”
"I... I... Do I still have a marriage contract with Bai Qian? ”
This should be a serious question, Xiao Can also thinks that although he said it in a panic, it has come to this point, and it will not be so that they can prevaricate by saying a few words casually.
But it turned out that in the blink of an eye, it was perfunctory by the big grinning smile of the fairy in yellow.
"Of course! Little brother-in-law. ”
"Hee-hee..."
In the same way, before Xiao Can could reacted, her white hand landed on his shoulder, and as soon as she grabbed Xiao Can's hand, she led him into the room.
Leave the sun behind.
"Moo!"
And Kentyro on the side waited for them to run out, and then he came over humbly. But it didn't seem to be trying to stop this from happening, but was hungry for the fallen fruit, cheering and cheering.
The other two Pokémon were still stunned and did not move, helplessly watching the small can being pulled away, and did not speak.
Because, although they did not get a share of the golden fruits of the earth, they seemed to have eaten bigger melons...
……
At this time, the wind blew again in the Asakusa Garden, and some small blades of grass rose at the sound of its call. Under the sun, they form landscapes and paintings, soothing people's restless hearts.
The room where Grandma Lily lived was obviously much better than the barn room in the small can. The interior of the house still inherits the poetry and painting style outside the garden, which is warm and romantic.
However, in addition to flowers are still flowers.
However, no one is in the mood to appreciate them at the moment.
Because, the atmosphere in the house has been low to zero!
"What!"
"Three years ago, was it my father who made the engagement himself?"
"Is the Stone of the Day a dowry?"
As the air became thinner and thinner, the black eyes on Xiao Can's face began to gradually become cold and dark.
But he finally questioned everything they had just said.
After all, who would have thought that he promised his father half a month ago to come to the botanical garden today, and he actually came to propose!
That's exciting, isn't it?
The small jar will naturally be stunned and hard to believe.
The room is glimmering and fragrant with flowers.
Seeing Xiao Can's suspicious look, it was only then that Grandma Lily realized that he was still in the dark.
As a result, her impression of Xiaocan also changed, and she began to feel sorry for the child in front of her.
After all, those who don't know are not guilty.
But as soon as she remembered that the sunstone had disappeared in vain, she still couldn't swallow this breath in her heart. Because that not only means that the evolution of Stinky Huahua is delayed, the relationship between the two families begins to break down, and her youngest granddaughter Bai Qian is far away from returning home.
And for all this, I have to blame Xiaocan's recklessness, and blame my old Bai family's harmful regulations!
Since the opening of the Botanical Garden, their elders have set a rule that "no step can go a thousand miles".
Probably speaking, if anyone wants to become a qualified garden keeper among future generations, he must go out to the devil to go through the experience. The requirement for training is to train the Pokémon assigned at the beginning.
It seems to be a simple requirement, but it is also the most difficult, because once you have no way to cultivate, you are not allowed to go home.
And Bai Qian, the granddaughter of Grandma Lily, this time she was given the same Pokémon as she was back then-Walking Grass.
This is one of the most difficult devil trainings in the experience!
So, as soon as she heard that the Sunstone was gone, her heart collapsed. Because isn't that the same as losing the chance to see the white?
How can she not be angry?
But just when she was angry, she remembered that she was an adult after all, and if she still cared about it like a child, wouldn't it be a joke if it was spread out.
So Grandma Lily turned back indifferently and glanced at the small can.
His face was as indifferent as water, but his heart was surging.
"In order not to hurt the harmony of our two families, the Sunstone is gone... That's it! ”
"But... Your marriage contract with Qian'er can't be canceled yet! ”
"And the white matter is still left to you to be fully responsible. When you bring the Sunstone, I'll work with your family again! ”
"For the sake of your youth and ignorance this time, I will forgive you for the time being."
"If there is a next time... Wrong! There will be no next time! ”
From her glaring eyes, Xiao Can knew that things were not so simple, but he still didn't expect her to be so ruthless.
No wonder even her father had to back down three points when he saw her.
What a miscalculation!!
And since the small can entered the house, this is also the first time that Grandma Lily has looked at the small can.
Because before that, she had never rested in front of the small can. Instead, he kept touching the overlord flower beside him with a heavy heart, or lowered his eyes in frustration, looking at the cloudless clear sky outside the window, waiting for someone.
In the end, it is estimated that she was really impatient when she saw that Xiao Can was impatient, so she silently put the overlord flower into the ball and began to deal with this problem.
But...
On the small can with a surprised face, there is no trace of relief that the crisis has been lifted. Because he is now more like a layer of ice coat, cool and smiling.
