Chapter 222

The old man on the left sighed: "Could it be that the authorities are obsessed? Shi Taiping has not married yet, he should also have affection for Xueyi, I heard that there are many people in Xuantu City who have proposed marriage to him in the past ten years, and he has never heard of any news coming out, which is really a good thing." ”

The old man in the middle smiled bitterly: "But it is too long to grind for more than ten years, and the snow clothes are not small, otherwise it will be like this, Lianshan, you personally go to Xuantu City to meet with Old Man Shi, and then explore Shi Taiping's thoughts." ”

The old man on the left widened his eyes: "Big brother, haven't you heard of any girl in our Yao family who has to look at other people's faces when she marries in hundreds of years?" Even if Xueyi is not young now, the people who come to propose marriage have never been broken. This has dragged on for more than ten years, knowing that there is no hope, didn't someone say the same thing a few days ago?"

On the other side, Yao Lianfeng echoed: "Yes, big brother, we haven't walked around with Old Man Shi for decades, he was a stinky and hard stone back then, and his son won't be much stronger, anyway, I don't approve, in case Old Man Shi doesn't agree, Xueyi will have to complain about the three of us?"

Yao Lianyue hesitated when he heard this, seeing other people's children start a family one by one, but his most beloved youngest daughter has been waiting in the boudoir. In the past ten years, Yao Xueyi has pushed away countless family affairs, he actually wanted to put down his old face and propose marriage, but Yao Lianfeng is right, if Shi Yidou does not agree, there will be no room for things to turn around.

The three elders sighed helplessly, and at the same time, they hated and hated Shi Taiping countless times in their hearts, scolding Shi Taiping for being a fool. At this moment, a deep voice came from afar: "Xuantu City Shi Taiping, please ask the predecessors of Yaomen to see me." The sound was like a flood of bells, and Lu Zhen shook through the Yao family, and everyone could hear it clearly.

Yao Lianfeng opened his mouth wide, his expression was very exciting, and he grabbed Yao Lianshan next to him: "Let's hear it right, is it really that fool coming back?" Yao Lianshan replied dumbly: "I heard it too, it should be right." ”

Looking back and forth, Yao Lianfeng felt that something was wrong: "Hey, why are you, big brother?"

"As soon as the fool spoke, the eldest brother disappeared, it seems that among the three of us, he still has the best body. ”

In front of Yao's house, before Shi Taiping's words fell, there was already a person standing in front of him. Yao Lianyue flew out after hearing Shi Taiping's name just announce it, and stood in front of Shi Taiping without waiting for him to finish speaking.

Shi Taiping didn't expect the Yao family to come out so quickly, seeing Yao Lianyue's eyes shining with a stern expression, he was really worried that he would be rejected by the head of the Yao family with a strange temperament.

He calmly bowed his hand: "Senior Yao, Taiping has been thinking about Xueyi for many years, and I hope you can be gracious." Yao Lianyue's chest was already churning like boiling water, but there was not the slightest difference on his face: "You came to ask for a marriage?"

Shi Taiping once heard his father say that the unsmiling head of the Yao family was ruthless when he was young, he had been to the Yao family many times, and he was actually quite jealous of Yao Xueyi's angry father, and he felt ashamed of Yao Xueyi, so he hurriedly bowed down and replied: "Uncle Yao, Taiping came in a hurry, and did not prepare documents and dowry gifts. ”

Yao Lianyue's eyebrows were upside down: "Shi Taiping, I think you can be regarded as knowledgeable and courteous when you act on weekdays, is it a suitable attitude for you to come empty-handed like this? Xueyi has known you for more than 20 years, can you be worthy of her by proposing a marriage like this?"

Shi Taiping paused for a moment: "Of course there is something wrong, Taiping is indeed a little impulsive, but Taiping has lived up to Xueyi's thoughts over the years, so he ...... it."

"So you came here in a hurry just to get what you wanted, but have you thought about it, the Yao family and the Shi family are famous for five mysteries, and Xueyi has been in love with you for many years, shouldn't you invite your father to officially propose marriage? Shi Taiping, I used to think you didn't know how to open up, but now it seems that Old Man Shi only taught you magic but didn't teach you the truth of being a man. ”

Yao Lianyue paused: "You must have understood Xueyi's intentions, but in fact, I have been waiting for this day for a long time." Shi family boy, I hope you can go back and discuss with your father, don't let Xueyi just wait for this ordinary courtship. ”

Shi Taiping came to his senses and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Thank you Uncle Yao for reminding me, the little nephew will go back to prepare." Yao Lianyue nodded: "Go quickly, you won't be able to leave when that girl comes out later." One more word for your dad, we miss him so much. ”

Shi Taiping nodded and agreed, turned into a cloud of earth smoke and went straight to the direction of Xuantu City, they said a few words, and the rest of the people also came out one after another. Yao Xueyi rushed out quickly, and saw only his father and two uncles standing in front of the door, and couldn't help but be shocked and asked in a trembling voice, "Dad, what about others?"

A smile flashed in Yao Lianyue's eyes, but he replied with a straight face, "Who is he?"

"Dad, where is Shi Taiping? Did he come back just now? Yao Lianyue snorted coldly and said angrily: "Let me go, he wants to marry my daughter without even a clerical dowry, he has a good dream......

Yao Xueyi was so shocked that her face was pale: "Dad, you drove him away." ”

"Yes, I taught him a few lessons, and that kid went back to Xuantu City......"

Yao Xueyi was so anxious that she stomped her feet again and again, and her body moved and she was about to chase after her, but Yao Lianyue stretched out her hand to hold her: "Daughter, you can let him go." Yao Xueyi was so anxious that tears flowed from her eyes: "Dad, don't you understand your daughter's mind, if he doesn't come from now on, how will your daughter live in the future." ”

Yao Lianfeng Yao Lianshan's pace was a little slower, and they didn't hear the conversation between Yao Lianyue and Shi Taiping, they were all taken aback after hearing it: "Big brother, you asked me to propose marriage just now, why did you scold that stupid boy in a blink of an eye?"

Yao Lianyue saw her daughter burst into tears and hurriedly persuaded: "Good daughter, don't cry, how can my father not understand your mind, my father asked him to go home to prepare the dowry, and then officially come over to propose marriage, and make up for my stupid daughter who has been waiting for more than ten years." ”

Looking at Yao Xueyi's pretty face that changed from tears to surprise, Yao Lianyue sighed: "It's really a big girl, my father has been reluctant to see you cry since he was a child, why did he cry like this for that stupid stone, I knew that I would scold him a few more words just now." ”

"Xueyi, you are my Yao Lianyue's most beloved daughter, how can my father let your family affairs be decided so hastily. Back then, your sister married into the Shui family in a beautiful manner, and you waited for him for so many years, and it was not worth it for me to not let Old Man Shi personally come to propose marriage. ”

Yao Xueyi whispered angrily: "I don't want any scenery, I just want him to come quickly." Yao Lianfeng feigned anger and shouted: "Third child, you go to the Shi family and say that we don't want anything, just send this girl to them." ”

Yao Lianshan laughed and said, "Yes, big brother, I'll go now." Yao Xueyi blushed and threw herself into Yao Lianyue's arms and twisted and laughed, Yao Lianyue's eyes were moist: "Girl, you haven't been like this for more than 20 years, I can't imagine that I, Yao Lianyue, can hold my daughter today, or borrow someone else's light." ”

"Zhang Zhangzhao, since you can't see Uncle Shi's thoughts, you still dare to encourage me to say this?" Seeing Shi Taiping turn around and run towards Dieyan City, Shui Ling'er patted her chest and exhaled a long breath: "It's really scared to death, if Uncle Shi doesn't go to my grandfather's house in the future, how can I go to see Aunt Xue." ”

Her frightened look made Zhang Zhao couldn't help laughing: "Then you still dare to come with me?" Shui Ling'er walked around him with her hands behind her back: "Although I don't know the result, I believe in you." Because after knowing you, you have never let me down. ”

"I can guess what Senior Shi was thinking because I think he is the same as I was at the beginning. Zhang Zhao raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Lingxiao: "When I first went to Lingxiao, I met Senior Sister Mo in Jingxin Lake, and I felt good that I could do something for her at that time. ”

"The fat master once said that I was asking for trouble, and the two senior sisters also said that I was stupid. But in fact, I didn't have any other thoughts at that time, and I was not unhappy to know that Senior Sister Mo was married, because there was never a chance for anything to happen between us. ”

"Ling'er, think about it, if it weren't for Chi Zhen blocking the road that day, and you were poisoned by the curse on your face, what would it be like between me and you?"

Zhang Zhao looked at Shui Ling'er's jade-like face and smiled indifferently: "Maybe until you get married, I don't know where you are." Even though I liked you very much in my heart, in the circumstances of the time, just curing your curse could not change anything. ”

"Just like Senior Sister Mo, I can only watch you marry someone else. But you came to Lingxiao, brought me hope again, and I didn't dare to think anything wrong with each other along the way. After the separation in Hongfu City, I finally knew that you were because of me, and insisted on pushing away the relationship with those people. ”

"It wasn't until then that I understood what I was going to do. Later, if it weren't for the sea devil blocking the road, and someone secretly poisoned the opportunity, and even without your uncle's sudden action, the two of us would not be in the situation we are in today. ”

Shui Ling'er recalled the past between herself and Zhang Zhao and understood what he meant: "Are you saying that Uncle Shi and Aunt Xue have experienced too few things together?"

"Although Aunt Xue has pushed away her family affairs like you, Senior Shi still doesn't dare to show her heart, not only because the Yao Shi family has too little contact, but also because no one has clearly reminded him face to face that everything your Aunt Xue did was all for him. ”

Shui Ling'er nodded: "It makes a bit of sense, listening to you say this, I also think that we have indeed experienced a lot of things together, and the few glasses of bitter wine you drank are nothing compared to the things that followed." ”

"By the way, if I am the one who reminds Uncle Shi, then wouldn't it be ...... to remind you" Zhang Zhao nodded heavily at Shui Ling'er: "That's right, the person who reminded me is Wen Dengrong." ”

Thinking that Wen Dengrong was so angry with Zhang Zhao that he vomited blood on the spot, and later was forced to cross the sea area of ten thousand miles, the two couldn't help laughing, they rode on the scorpion dragon beast and just wanted to return to Dieyan City, when they suddenly saw a billowing smoke and dust below rushing towards Xuantu City.

"Uncle Shi, why did he come back?" Shui Ling'er was taken aback when she saw Shi Taiping go and return: "Zhang Zhangzhao, stop him quickly......"

Without waiting for the scorpion dragon beast to turn around and come back, Shi Taiping rushed out of a hundred miles early. Zhang Zhao moved the scorpion dragon beast to spread its wings and chased after it for a while, without even looking at a figure, and saw that the lower part was no longer part of the Yao family's territory, so he had to retreat stupidly.

"It's miserable, could it be that Uncle Shi was kicked out by his grandfather?" Shui Ling'er and Zhang Zhao hurriedly returned to Yao's house with apprehension in their hearts, and they felt a little uneasy when they saw the situation in front of the door.

The three elders of the Yao family and Yao Xueyi looked forward in front of the door, and the three white-robed old men stared at them with strange expressions. Sure enough, as soon as Shui Ling'er landed, Yao Xueyi approached quickly: "Ling'er, did you go and tell Brother Shi what I thought?"

"It's all because the juniors speculated and caused trouble, and Ling'er also listened to my idea. Zhang Zhao stepped forward and bowed deeply to Yao Xueyi: "Zhang Zhao will go to Xuantu City and explain everything to Senior Shi, please don't blame Ling'er......"

"Blame, why blame my good niece?" Yao Xueyi smiled happily and took Shui Ling'er in her arms and kissed her on the face a few times: "Good Ling'er, it's not in vain that Aunt Xue loves you so much, those good-looking treasures in my room, you can take whatever you like." ”

"Wow, really? Aunt Xue, don't say it doesn't count. Yao Xueyi stretched out her hand and twisted her face gently: "Of course it counts, now that I have Brother Shi, I can give you those things." ”

Shui Ling'er grinned: "Great, I'll go to the election now, so that you don't have to regret it for a while." Yao Xueyi nodded to Zhang Zhao, took Shui Ling'er's hand and went straight to the back house.

"Boy, what are you doing stupidly?" The three white-robed old men looked at Zhang Zhao, who was still clasping his fists with both hands, and laughed: "I didn't expect that such a thing that we felt embarrassed would be done by the two little guys." Do you brothers bring out some good wine, let's go have a drink? ”

finally fulfilled the wish of his beloved daughter for many years, Yao Lianyue washed away the gloom of the past: "It's time to have a drink, third, go to the cellar to get some good wine that is more than a hundred years old." ”

He smiled and beckoned to Zhang Zhao: "Xiao Ling'er has a good eye, you kid really has some insight, let's come together, let you taste our Yao family's Red Dragon Ball." ”

Three days later, the Yao family detective outside Dieyan City came to report that a team in the direction of Xuantu City was about to arrive at the city. Yao Lianyue understood what was going on, and hurriedly took the two brothers out of the city to greet them.

The group of Xuantu City were all wearing clothes deliberately embroidered with shining runes, hundreds of guards stood still far away, and Shi Taiping and an old man stepped forward quickly. The old man had a black beard and a black face, a red ribbon tied in his bun, and was wearing a yellow-striped brocade robe, which was none other than Shi Yidou, the city lord of Xuantu City.

"Brother Yao, Shi Yidou is polite, I haven't seen you for decades, everything is fine with you. Reunited with his friend back then, Yao Lianyue's face was full of smiles: "Yidou, please come in quickly, today we can finally get together again." ”

They welcomed the father and son of the Shi family to sit down in the Yao family hall, and Shi Yidou and the three elders of the Shui family were also embarrassed when they met. After the tea, Shi Yidou said loudly: "Brother Yao, Yidou came not only to get together with old friends, but also to propose marriage for the child. Taiping and Brother Yao's daughter Xueyi are in love, but they have been delayed for many years because you and I have no contact with each other, and I only hope that Brother Yao will fulfill this matter. ”

After that, Shi Yidou took out a red wedding letter from his arms and handed it to Shi Taiping, Shi Taiping took it and knelt down in the hall, and presented it to Yao Lianyue with both hands, Yao Lianyue took it and looked at it a few times and quickly stretched out his hand to hold it, and changed his title in his mouth: "Virtuous son-in-law, please get up, and the family affairs will be decided." You and I announced the five mysteries and invited good friends to come to watch the ceremony. ”
