Chapter Eighty-Six: I Am Your Husband
If he remembered correctly, all he gave Mu Fan were some things he didn't like to eat.
He didn't like sweets since he was a child, but Yan liked to give him candy to eat, so these nasty candies ended up in Mu Fan's stomach.
As for the blame, it's true.
Because Mu Fan's queen mother would beat and scold him fiercely after he made a mistake, and she didn't feel sorry for her son at all.
That's a three-year-old child, isn't it normal to make mistakes?
After so many years, he still felt a little scary when he recalled the scene of Mu Fan being beaten.
In order to make Mu Fan suffer less beatings, Xia Huai could only take the initiative to take the blame for him.
Thinking of Mu Fan's queen mother's temperament that throws tantrums at every turn, Xia Huai couldn't help but rejoice, fortunately, that terrible woman is no longer there, otherwise it's really hard to say whether this kid can survive until now.
Recalling the previous scene when the two of them were playing trick-or-treats with each other together, Xia Huai suddenly asked like a ghost, "Boy, do you still like sweets so much?" β
"You ......" Hearing Xia Huai's question, Mu Fan's expression turned grim, "How do you know?" β
At this time, Xia Huai had already realized that he had asked a question that would arouse suspicion.
In order not to make Mu Fan continue to doubt, he laughed out loud and quipped: "I guess, you see that you have to eat so many oranges a day, and people who don't like sweets can't do this." β
"Really?" Xia Huai's answer could not relieve the doubts in Mu Fan's heart, he looked at Xia Huai with suspicion on his face, "You asked 'or', which means that you knew me before." β
"But I like sweets, only Zichen, Aunt Zhixi, and Manager Fan know. But they're all gone, who told you this? Mu Fan stared at Xia Huai intently.
Gradually, Mu Fan seemed to see Zichen's figure from Xia Huai, his eyes widened, he looked at Xia Huai in disbelief, and asked excitedly, "...... You are...... Sub ......"
"Brother!" Just when Mu Fan was about to ask the doubts in his heart, Xia Yan's sweet shout sounded out inopportunely, "I'm going to the county seat, do you want to go with me?" β
"Go! Of course go! Xia Huai, who was already sweating profusely, ran towards her like an arrow like finding a savior, "Yan'er, let's go quickly, the city gate will be closed later." β
"Brother, what are you talking nonsense, it's still morning, the city gate has just opened, how can it be closed." Xia Yan was inexplicably pulled by Xia Huai and walked home, and asked with some puzzlement.
"The ink will be off in a moment."
"Oh, let's go."
"Wait!" At this moment, Mu Fan's blocking voice sounded, "I'll go with you." β
"Boy, our brother and sister go out together, what's the matter with you?" Seeing that Mu Fan was about to follow, Xia Huai hurriedly stopped, "Don't be foolish, stay at your house." β
Mu Fan glanced at Xia Huai, ignored him, but looked at Xia Yan and asked, "You promised me that you would take me wherever you go, and you forgot about it in just a few days?" β
"Of course I didn't." Xia Yan shook Xia Huai's arm and said coquettishly, "Brother, let's take him with you, I promise to let him talk less and not make you angry." β
Xia Huai really couldn't stand her coquettishness, so he could only agree: "Okay, let's go together." β
The three of them were walking, but they heard Xia Huai shouting excitedly: "Oops, I almost forgot about business." β
As he spoke, he ran in the opposite direction to his house, waving his hand to the two as he ran: "I remember, Master asked me to help him do something, I'll go first, you guys go." Boy, I handed over Yan'er to you, help me take care of her. β
Seeing Xia Huai suddenly run away, Mu Fan's face darkened, and he clenched his fists and said nothing.
"Mu Fan, did you quarrel with my brother?" At this time, Xia Yan felt that there was an indescribably strange atmosphere between the two of them, and couldn't help but look at Mu Fan curiously, "How do I feel that he is avoiding you?" β
"I don't know."
Hearing Mu Fan's answer, Xia Yan knew that this strange-tempered young master was angry again.
Xia Yan, who was really out of line, could only sigh, took him into the donkey cart, and let Xiaohu drive towards the county seat.
Along the way, Mu Fan looked at Xia Yan with a complicated look, and wanted to ask her some questions several times, but she glared back with a "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you" look.
Although he doesn't like to talk and doesn't care about some mundane things, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know anything.
In the past few days, Xu Changping and Liang Dawei's change in attitude towards Xia Yan's family have been looked at by Mu Fan.
Combined with Xia Huai's strange question today, I am afraid that the Yan family is his aunt Zhixi, who has been dead for many years, and Xia Huai is his good friend An Zichen, so Xia Yan ......
Thinking of this, Mu Fan stared at Xia Yan with gentle eyes, and when he looked at it, he suddenly burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" She looked at his tender eyes, and got goosebumps a little unaccustomed, "Have you started to play the tender male girlfriend again?" β
Mu Fan chuckled and shook his head and said, "I'm just laughing at fate, it's really wonderful, and I will never be able to escape if it belongs to me." β
"What belongs to you?" This inexplicable answer made Xia Yan not react for a while, "Did you lose something?" β
"Hmm." He nodded, "Luckily, I found it again." β
"That's really congratulations." She suddenly felt a little embarrassed by this conversation, and after saying a happy word, she lowered her head and stopped looking at him.
"Rejoice and rejoice."
"Joy what." She pursed her lips slightly, "I didn't lose anything." β
"No, you lost it. You have lost your husband. Mu Fan paused for a moment, "But thankfully, you got him back again." β
"Husband?" She raised her head suddenly, met Mu Fan's eyes full of affection, and couldn't help blushing, "When did I have a husband, where is he?" β
"Far away, close at hand."
"You?" Looking at his handsome smiling face, Xia Yan suddenly felt that he had been tricked, "Mu Fan, why do you always learn these strange things, don't talk to me about these strange things, okay?" β
"I'm serious." Mu Fan suddenly took Xia Yan's hand and put it in his heart, "You are my fiancΓ©e." β
"FiancΓ©e?" Xia Yan sneered and shook off his hand, "Young Master, you have to talk about the joke to a certain extent, your joke seems to be a bit big." β
Before Mu Fan could answer, she continued: "I don't remember that we had a marriage contract. β
"Of course you don't." Her indifferent attitude did not make Mu Fan angry, and she still looked at her with a smile, "At that time, you were not born yet, and we were married by the belly." β
"Young master, are you fooling me? You ......" Xia Yanzheng was saying, but when she saw Mu Fan take out something she was extremely familiar with from her arms, she immediately roared excitedly: "Mu Fan! How dare you steal my jade pendant! β
She stretched out her hand to take the thing back, but he flashed it easily and put the jade pendant in front of her eyes, "This is not yours, this jade pendant is mine, you look carefully." β
Xia Yan snatched the jade pendant and observed it carefully.
Mu Fan was right, this piece of jade pendant was indeed not hers.
Her piece of jade was carved with lotus flowers and a fish basket, while Mu Fan's piece was only carved with two carps.
But these two pieces of kodama, only the carving patterns are different, the material, size, and color are exactly the same, no wonder she will admit her mistake.
"If I'm not mistaken, your piece of kodama should be carved with lotus flowers and fish baskets."
"How do you know?" Xia Yan was puzzled, only Yan and she had seen her piece of jade pendant, and Xia Huai didn't know that she had a piece of jade pendant.
Even when she was so poor that she couldn't afford to eat, Yan didn't think about getting rid of the jade pendant, but kept reminding her that she must keep the jade pendant properly and not be stolen.
This is obviously a secret between their mother and daughter, why does Mu Fan know so clearly?
"My mother told you that?"
Unexpectedly, Mu Fan shook his head and said, "These two pieces of jade pendant are the evidence of our marriage." The lotus flower and the fish basket are not a complete pattern at all, don't you see that they are complete when they are combined? He pointed to the carp on the jade pendant, "These two jade pendants represent the full house of gold and jade, and my two carps will be packed in your fish basket sooner or later." β
Xia Yan was shocked by Mu Fan's words, she looked at the oval jade pendant with white in the powder in his hand, and she was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.
"Ah Yan, you are really my fiancΓ©e."
"Don't call me Ah Yan!" Xia Yan suddenly covered his ears, "You just lied to me, I don't believe your words." β
Just kidding, she grew so big that she didn't even know what it was like to be in love, but a fiancΓ© suddenly appeared, or the kind that was married by her fingertips, how could she accept it all at once?
Although this fiancΓ© is very good-looking and has been with her for a long time, it can't change the fact of an arranged marriage.
She obviously thought that when she grew up, she would have a few more ups and downs, and choose a satisfactory husband to marry, but the fiancΓ© who suddenly appeared broke her dream.
Oh my God, what about free love.
"Xia Yan, I don't force you to believe it, when you go back and find Aunt Zhixi, you will know the truth as soon as you ask." Mu Fan sighed, "You should always believe Aunt Zhixi's words." β
"Aunt Zhixi?" She covered her ears, but she could still hear his voice.
Suddenly hearing him mention this name again, Xia Yan raised his head and asked, "Who is Aunt Zhixi?" β
"It's your mother."
"But that day, my mother said that you recognized the wrong person." She paused and said, "Didn't you also say that she is not your Aunt Zhixi." β
"No, she is." Mu Fan's eyes darkened, "It's just that for some reason, she doesn't recognize me, maybe she has some trouble." β
"You must have mistaken someone." Xia Yan pursed her lips, "If my mother knew you, why did she never tell me?" β
"But she seems to have already said it to Xia Huai."
"So what."
"I'm afraid that Aunt Zhixi thinks you're still a child and doesn't want to tell you."
"You...... You're a kid. β
β¦β¦
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Xiaohu, who had been immersed in the car, suddenly reminded loudly: "Big sister, big brother Mu, the county seat has arrived." β
