Chapter 612: Autumn Harvest Celebration III of the Seventh Year
"If you think it's really awkward, why don't we announce the news of pregnancy, and my father should not care about it anymore when he is happy. β
"Maybe it's not necessarily more annoyed. Jiao Ming stretched out his hand to enchant his lover's lower abdomen, which had shown signs of bulging, and then smiled: "Besides, I can't hide this matter at all." When I went to see Sister Chunyu a few days ago, those seven aunts and eight aunts kept asking, saying whether you have gained weight recently. The look was clearly suspicious. β
Just a few days ago, Chunyu finally gave birth to a big fat boy. Although he took the opportunity to make a fuss because of his gullible madman's personality and ended up in the hospital, the delivery went smoothly and the mother and child were safe. Jiao Ming and Binglian naturally wanted to visit, not only colliding with many female elders, but also hearing a gossip news.
That is Saburu Jianhail almost decided to completely isolate his grandson from Chunyu, so as not to do 'irrational' things by Chunyu, who has a criminal record. Fortunately, all parties persuaded and Chunyu also vowed not to mess around, which saved a human tragedy.
Jiao Ming felt that everyone was happy at first, but the more he pondered it, the more wrong it became, and he realized under the reminder of Binglian. In this way, it is basically a performance made by the elders to reach a tacit understanding on the spot, the purpose of which is to suppress the spring rain that is 'too fat'.
If it was original, Jiao Ming would inevitably be uneven for the spring rain. But the current situation of becoming a father made Jiao Ming have to make an illusion, what if his daughter was as uneasy as Chunyu and threatened him with a dangerous magic experiment with his grandson in his womb?
In just an instant, Jiao Ming felt a deep sympathy for Saburu Jianhail, and lamented that he had to pretend to be deaf and dumb and never even mention the idea of interfering in this matter.
"What's the matter with doubts, there's no equipment from your hometown, and there's no such pesky little god pet beast here. Wear more clothes and hide it for dozens of days. Binglian said, lifted the hem of her blouse, grabbed her lover's hand and stroked her abdomen without any barrier.
"Actually, there's another question that you may not like, but we also have to think about it. β
"What?" Jiao Ming felt the slippery and familiar touch on his hand, and his brain entered an inefficient state.
"According to your hometown, it's probably a marriage in the belly. After a pause, not hearing any objections, Binglian continued: "The Saburu family, as the second family of the Crocodile Leader, has always been the marriage partner of our Crocodile Family. But my father and I have gone awry, and the relationship is inevitably distant. I estimate that if we give birth to a daughter, it is inevitable that we will be arranged with Chunyu's son. β
"Ahem...... It's not a big deal. β
Bing Lian had expected this attitude and asked. "What's wrong? I'm afraid that we will wronged our daughter, and if we give birth to a son and marry the direct blood of the Saburu family, what do you say?"
Switching positions like this, Jiao Ming really found that the awkwardness in his heart was greatly reduced, and he couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly, and was about to prevaricate a few words but suddenly had an idea. "It's too early to say what will happen more than a decade later. Not as good as"
"A delaying tactic. You have other ideas, right? Don't hide it from me!"
Jiao Ming really has ideas, there are too many variables in more than ten years, depending on the attitude of the child, if he doesn't like to make this matter too many excuses, if it is not good, let the child go out for a few years, and the deceased will escape from marriage.
But thinking about Binglian's family concept, it's better not to say some things. just said that the first half of the "too many variables" were said, and the second half of the "secret help to escape marriage" was hidden. Then he changed the subject in Binglian's skeptical gaze.
"Wellβwhen it comes to children, I think of that little assassin again, what happened to asking you to knock on the side?"
interpretation
This topic is enough, Binglian's attention immediately shifted, saying that she talked about it with Xiao Shi last night, and Xiao Shi changed the topic and avoided talking about it, I'm afraid she hasn't lost her anger yet. But this matter, in fact, your attitude is rather strange, you owe money to pay off your life and kill people, that dagger is deadly enough, why bother to protect that child's life.
"I have already said that children are immature and are easily instigated to sin. Special treatment must be given. β
Binglian paused slightly, but still said, "I really don't understand what you're struggling with." That little cub is very clear about the goal of killing, which can be regarded as instigation? And even if it is the 'Protecting Meow Law in the Year of the Meow', according to your national concept, it will take a year and a half to establish it, and it will not be applicable to this case. In my opinion, the left and right are doing things according to their hearts in the blank space of the law, and no matter how much truth you say, it is useless. β
Jiao Ming opened his mouth to argue, but he paused suddenly, lowered his head and looked at the beauty in his arms, and asked, "Could it be that Mrs. Fei persuaded Xiaoshi?"
"We just talked about getting married, didn't you tell the truth?"
"Ahem, that ...... Don't digress from the topic. β
"Hah, who's diverting the subject?"
Jiao Ming blinked twice, realizing that he couldn't hide it, so he had no choice but to adopt a more euphemistic statement: "You see that the world is so big, if the children don't like arranged marriages, go outside to have a good time, improve their strength and broaden their horizons, when they no longer have beautiful illusions about this world, they may be willing to come back." β
Binglian nodded at first, but quickly came back to her senses. "Isn't this just a marriage runaway?"
"Don't get excited, don't get excited, it's not worth arguing about now. Jiao Ming comforted a few words and brought the topic back to persuading Xiaoshi.
The last trick is to let Xiaoshi thoroughly understand the miserable life of the little ghost being bullied. Under compassion, there may be a slight possibility of no longer holding grudges. If that doesn't work, I'll have to persuade you to just 'know nothing.'" It's really not worth it to have a conflict with your sister over this. β
"Let's hold off for a few more days. Jiao Ming sighed and explained: "This matter involves life, and you can't compensate for killing it." Not to mention other factors, Xiaoshi is only 16 years old this year, and she directly killed a 12-year-old child because of her anger, which will inevitably have an impact on her future mental growth. β
"There's nothing wrong with being decisive. And this raid on the Crocodile Axe Fortress, there are still few dead people you have seen when Xiao Shi? And strictly speaking, which one is not related to Xiao Shi's condensation armor and 'city breaking cone'. β
"It's a battlefield, it's different. β
Binglian realized that there would be no result if she continued to talk, and after all, Jiao Ming and Xiaoshi's brother and sister relationship were closer, and it was okay to be a microphone and a cushion, but it was not beautiful to meddle too deeply.
"Don't talk about that. This year's Autumn Harvest Celebration is just around the corner, and there are many arrangements to ask your opinion on. First of all, do you think Master Emily will accept the invitation?"
"Even if I come, it should be similar to last year, low-key and formal, and I won't participate in any face-revealing activities. β
Nodding, Binglian thought the same. "Then don't make any more arrangements. Second, Ms. Yisi will bring a group to participate, you know her very well, and you are still the child's godfather, you have to accompany her, right?"
"If Emily doesn't come. But I can't do that kind of lively work, it's okay to be accompanied simply, and you have to find someone else for the rest. β
"It's nature. β
The husband and wife discussed for a moment with the consciousness of the host, and the topic finally fell on the three groups.
First of all, the underground alien race, the opinion of the elders is to take this opportunity to be completely open and have fun together. Jiao Ming shrugged his shoulders and said that he had no opinion, just reminding the underground aliens that their eating habits needed to be taken care of. If human beings eat and drink normally, but the other party's poison, this will produce moths. Adult aliens are the ones in the high ring of the water system, but if something happens to those little guys, there will be a big misunderstanding. Binglian nodded and wrote it down on paper.
Then there's the island dwarf aspect. If the God's Pet Beasts and Island Dwarves leave a certain range, their magical power will begin to weaken significantly. But if it's just one day, it's not a big problem. In this way, it will take some effort on the part of Jiao Ming in terms of transmission. Jiao Ming asked about the number of people, and felt that five was not too much, so he agreed.
Finally, it is whether the Gag family, who are now far away in the dwarf village of the island, will return to participate in the autumn harvest celebration. Jiao Ming didn't think there was anything wrong with this, but he suddenly shook his head helplessly. Gag is from the Red Mountain Kingdom, and this time the reinforcements from the Red Mountain Kingdom and Yisi are the most important guests, and the two sides will inevitably be embarrassed when they meet. If there are a few more stinky mouths in the reinforcements, something will go wrong.
It's like jumping ship, and as a result, a new company that is weaker and a stronger company who is old has a big project to celebrate together. If he shows up at the cocktail party, the situation of this job-changer is naturally a little delicate. And in this world where everything speaks with strength, and the relationship between strength and weakness is more acute, some situations can be passed by not just relying on thick skin.
"Maybe it's not that bad, after all, I still have the title of a viscount in the Red Mountain Kingdom. β
"The Autumn Harvest Celebration is an important festival and we must do our best to prevent unpleasant things from happening. And alcohol and magic potions are things that detract from the mind, and I don't want to pin my hopes on 'maybe'. Moreover, the Gag family is the first foreign high-ring gas family in our crocodile collar, and we must pay attention to it. β
"Let them stay in the dwarven tribe of the island?" As soon as these words came out, Jiao Ming denied himself. The status of the autumn harvest celebration party is comparable to that of Chung Kook's Chinese New Year's Eve, and it has political implications. The exclusion of Gag would result in a very serious centrifugal detachment. "It's rude. The meaning of the autumn harvest celebration, it is impossible for them not to know. β
"So we need to figure it out. β
"How about separation, since Sardinia is our direct territory, let's hold a small autumn harvest celebration there. β
"It's impossible, and not to mention which side we're involved in then, it's not at all like the dwarven tribes left behind on the island. β
"Then make a fuss on the venue of the autumn harvest celebration, in such a big place, it shouldn't be difficult for the two groups of people not to meet. β
Binglian frowned slightly, she was not satisfied with this plan, and was about to say something more, but Jiao Ming interrupted with a raised palm and pointed to the next door.
"Is there any movement in the Xu Qin people?"
"There have always been, but this time it was a person who teleported over, around the sixth ring. β
"Eavesdropping?"
"It's better not to get an axe, the qi system in this negotiation team is all the disciples and grandchildren of Kven Ans. Jiao Ming said, concentrating on the qi magic fluctuations next door. Binglian waited for a while, naturally feeling bored, put aside the affairs of the Gag family for the time being, kissed and left. After all, everything is busy now, and it is already the limit to get tired of it for a while.
Jiao Ming stayed here and squatted all night, and the Xu Qin negotiation team did not have any irregular spatial teleportation behavior. At the negotiation table the next day, Jiao Ming was observing the meeting, looking for someone who was suspected of being teleported yesterday, and occasionally making a hache. However, due to the habitual lack of remembering faces, the search was fruitless. As for the fatigue of staying up late, as a high-ring water system magic warrior, it is nothing.
And the rather handsome negotiator seemed to have some kind of authorization, and his waist was much stiffer.
First, he was tempted to see why the Crocodile Collar offered to ransom a large number of people. The crocodile duke naturally didn't show the slightest hint of his mouth. Then ask about the specific requirements for the average person. The crocodile duke directly threw out the pre-negotiated conditions.
The first is that there is no language barrier. The second is that yellow skin and black hair are preferred. The third is that the whole family can be together, but the elderly with gray hair and frowning are not counted.
The negotiators seemed to be convinced of something, and once again requested a pause and began spatial teleportation, and shortly after, sent a handwritten letter from Keven Anse. The crocodile duke swept over the general offer to circulate. In addition to the formulaic beginning and end, the letter is to the effect that one is an ambiguous expression of agreement and the other is surprise.
The crocodile duke waved a few words with a big pen, and the mood and form were similar to 'less grinding, be happy!'
When the negotiator saw the note, the corners of his mouth and eyebrows twitched together, but he didn't dare to make unnecessary movements and teleport it back.
What followed was a tug-of-war between the two sides over numbers. After half a day of bargaining, there was finally a plan to exchange according to the number of rings.
Specifically, in terms of prisoners, there were 62 remnants of the soldiers and the middle and low ring trash fish that were subsequently searched from the ruins, a total of more than 200 people. The eight rings are exchanged for 1,500 people, the first ring is 10 people, and the others are in the middle. The end result was that 78,000 ordinary people were needed as ransom.
For this number, Jiao Ming feels that the work in the coming year will be very hard, but he will also be more motivated.
And until the agreement was actually signed, the Xu Qin negotiating team still felt that things were going incredibly smoothly. You must know that the last time you used Binglian and Jiao Ming as hostages to negotiate the ransom, your own side had enough of the 'uncle' style. When I came this time, I thought I would be insulted, but I didn't expect the crocodile to lead everyone to be completely businesslike, and the bargaining was fierce but there were no superfluous words.
"Then I wish us a happy cooperation in the process of personnel exchange. β
The crocodile duke replied simply according to aristocratic etiquette, and waved his hand to pick people up.
The negotiation team of the Xu Qin people immediately set off, and Jiao Ming and Saburu Jianhail were still accompanied. However, this time, Jiao Ming noticed that Mu Ke was not in the team, and inquired and learned that the goods had left the team, and under the supervision of Chunyu, they visited Changteng Town to a limited extent.
