Chapter 140: Cao Xi proposes marriage to Qiaofeng
At this time, Qin Du realized that it was already dark, so he had to stay overnight. After eating, he went to knock on Shengli's door, Shengli hurriedly asked her mother to pack her things, she sat on the stool next to the bed, and Qin's mother sat on the edge of the bed to sew clothes. Qin Du came in and saw a few law books on the chest of drawers by the window in front of him, picked them up and flipped through them, and asked her if she wanted to be a lawyer in the future, Sheng Li nodded. Qin Du said again, today's eldest lady is a little excessive, but they are all family, don't worry too much, she still nodded. Qin's mother wanted to get a stool, but Qin Du gestured and said no, let him sit on the bed, he also shook his head, and said that he would go out to wash his feet in a while.
"I'll be back tomorrow morning, and I don't blame you for this, so don't feel guilty." Qin Du squatted on the ground and looked at Shengli, there were tears clearly flowing from the corners of her eyes, and she didn't dare to look at him.
"Your sister-in-law Yajing often praises you, saying that among your relatives, you are the most promising, and you will definitely be a pillar of talent in the future. You see, if you are a lawyer or a college student in the future, you will be the first person in front of and behind the mountain, and you will win glory for the whole hometown! "Qin is comforting and sincere, not to mention girls, few boys can compare.
"Brother Qin, I'm fine, I'm just guilty, the second brother obviously likes Qiaofeng, so it's yellow. Qingxue just hated me, she didn't expect that she hated me so much, it was the second brother who saved her. Saved her, and she is still so arrogant! Sheng Li's tears slipped silently, and Qin knew that their brother and sister had a deep relationship.
"Don't be sad, Shengyang won't blame you, besides, marriage depends on fate, which proves that Qiaofeng does not have such blessings." Ignorant children make people feel cold, and sensible children make people feel distressed.
"Brother Qin, whether Qingxue's words are hard to listen to, I don't care at all, mainly the second brother. She spreads rumors like this, which will only make more girls misunderstand him, what do you say. "Shengli found that she had planted a cockroach that could not be killed.
"It's not good locally, go to other places to find it, aren't you going to Xi'an, there are a lot of girls there, I don't believe it, Shengyang is such a good person, I can't find a satisfactory daughter-in-law." Qin Du said this, and Shengli's mood was much better.
"Brother Qin, I'll go to Qiaofeng's house with you tomorrow to try it, in case they change their minds, it will also give each other a chance." Shengli insisted on going to meet him once.
"Okay, but don't force it if you don't succeed, your second brother is so kind, he can't bear to let you be treated coldly by others." Qin Du agreed that she and him would do their best again.
Cao Xi followed the third uncle to Qiaofeng's house to propose marriage, and in order to show his sincerity, he directly said that he would get 20,000 yuan for the engagement, and pay for the clothes and relatives. Qiaofeng's parents looked at Cao Xi's good facial features, taller than Shengyang, and a lot of bride price, there was only one male in the family, and there would be no division of family property in the future, compared to Shengyang, Cao Xi was more suitable. This morning the magpies were chattering in front of the door, they thought that Shengyang was going to invite lobbyists, but they didn't expect that a bigger happy event was coming, Qiaofeng's mother immediately went upstairs to get bacon, to make the best meal for them.
Cao Xi's arrival, Qiaofeng was also surprised, he heard that his parents were going to propose, he didn't look down on her, and he once hated him. This time, he spent 20,000 yuan to marry himself, which is enough to prove his sincerity, and it seems that he has made a lot of money. She hid in her room to do needlework, Cao Xi asked the third uncle to negotiate with Qiaofeng's father, and sneaked in by herself, Qiaofeng looked at him a little embarrassed, and thought about it, the blue sky and the white sun would not do anything to her, so let him sit next to the sewing machine in the house.
"Qiaofeng, you can still step on sewing, you are really capable, since you have a sewing machine, why do you have to do it manually." Cao Xi looked at the way she worked, and indeed as her parents said, the diligent girl didn't worry about anything when she got married.
Qiaofeng wore a floral dress that she changed to a smaller size today, she just tried it on, but she didn't expect Cao Xi to come, and she was nervous in her heart. I still didn't dare to raise my head and straighten my waist, and sat there shyly.
"Some of the fine work of the hemming must be done by hand, Brother Cao Xi, when will you come back?" She lowered her head and asked, listening to her parents who were more satisfied with him, her eyes were complete, and she made them happy, she listened to her parents since she was a child, and her parents' choices would not harm her.
"I've been back for more than ten days, and I wanted to come to see you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to look more and more beautiful, really beautiful, I tell you, the whole team can't find a second girl more beautiful than you." Cao Xi didn't like to talk nonsense before, but yesterday Qingxue gave him a lesson, and looking at Qiaofeng's shy appearance, he was really right.
"Why, a lot of people don't like me." Her face suddenly turned very red, and for the first time she was praised by a boy for her beauty, her heart immediately floated, although Shengyang's words were true, but Cao Xi's words were even more beautiful. I originally wanted to find a few cruel words to beat him, to show that I didn't want it, I couldn't look down on it before, why do I come to propose marriage now. However, she was afraid of offending him, and her parents would scold her for losing 20,000 yuan in bride price.
Cao Xi thought to herself, it's not that she doesn't like her, it's that she doesn't have the money to like her, so she can't spend a lot of money before and after, and after the matter is completed, her mother's family will become a 10,000 yuan household in seconds. This is also strange that there are more male babies and fewer female babies in the mountains, Qiaofeng's parents are not stupid, other female babies go out to work, many are abducted by outsiders, and they can't get any gift money, they leave Qiaofeng at home to sit on the ground and raise the price, which is higher and higher every time.
"That's their clumsiness, you are the most beautiful in my eyes, I was ignorant before, I almost missed you, and now I feel so happy!" Cao Xi used her hand to support her face, which was flushed, different from Qingxue's coquettishness, this blush was from the heart of excitement. Qiao Feng was so frightened that she stepped back, Cao Xi was afraid that she was going to wrestle, so she grabbed her with her other hand and held her in her arms. Qiaofeng got into the man's arms for the first time, and her whole body was tense, Cao Xi never expected that something would happen like this. Qiaofeng obediently stayed in his arms, Cao Xi lowered his head, picked up her face, and kissed her. Qiao Feng's mouth felt that she was fixed there, although everyone knew each other before, but this was too explicit, she pushed him away embarrassedly.
At this time, Cao Xi was grateful to Qingxue, if she hadn't taught him, he wouldn't have dared to be so bold, the more shy Qiaofeng was, the more he had the urge to violate her. "Look at your shy appearance, your parents have agreed to marry you to me, and we will be husband and wife in the future, and we will face each other like this every day."
"No, I, I'm afraid." Qiaofeng thought that if she kissed, she would get pregnant, and it would have a bad reputation when it was spread like this, so Cao Xi smiled, pulled her up, and hugged her in her arms.
"Silly girl, I like you, and you have a crush on me, otherwise you wouldn't blush, would you?" Qiaofeng was hugged tightly, her forehead was pressed against his face, and she could feel that her face was hot. Cao Xi took advantage of the situation to be unruly, so that she was overwhelmed, and she was just obedient, this was what her parents chose for her, and it should be right.
