Chapter 119: Discussing Marriage
Zhou Mingjue didn't want to agree to her going out, but after thinking about Liyan's current mental health situation, he decided to let her go out for a walk.
Zhuo Sinan also mentioned to him that Li Yan needs to be exposed to different environments in order to get out.
"Okay, you go, I'll let Peng Jie be your driver."
Zhou Mingjue thought about it, and it was more reassuring for Peng Jie to follow him.
The two talked for a while, and Zhou Mingjue reluctantly left.
After Xia Tong received the message from Li Yan, he trotted all the way back.
It's winter now, and as soon as the north wind blows at night, a cool air directly drills into Xia Tong's neck.
She was choking on the cold down there just now, and it took her half a day to go back and slowly rise in her body temperature.
She was a little surprised, and said to Li Yan: "Ah Li, don't worry about the dog man, you live with me?" I thought he had come to pick you up. ”
"I told him, stay with you for two days, and then go back after going to the ancient town."
Thinking of this, Li Yan said again: "I live with you, will Lawyer Shen not be able to come over?" ”
Xia Tong pursed his lips and smiled, and said with some embarrassment: "I can go to him." ”
Two days later, Li Yan set off with Xia Tong to an ancient town in Lincheng.
Before leaving, Zhou Mingjue explained a lot of things to Li Yan in detail.
Because Zhou Mingjue is taking care of Li Yan on weekdays, in terms of living habits, Zhou Mingjue can be said to know more than Li Yan himself.
Li Yan twisted her handsome eyebrows and listened to the man's "nagging", and finally she couldn't stand it, so she stopped him and said: "I'm just going for two days, don't be so nervous, okay, I'll take good care of myself." ”
"If it weren't for my busy work, I would have liked to accompany you." Zhou Mingjue hugged her and said softly.
"Next time, we still have so many days to go, we can always find time to travel together."
When Li Yan said this, he didn't expect that the trip he promised to go with Zhou Mingjue would be a few years later.
"We're leaving, and it's going to be dark if we don't go again." After speaking, Li Yan kissed the corner of Zhou Mingjue's mouth shallowly.
Zhou Mingjue seized the opportunity, grabbed the back of her head, and deepened the kiss.
Peng Jie and Xia Tong consciously turned around and let the little couple sprinkle dog food.
It wasn't until Li Yan couldn't breathe that he was willing to let people go.
Li Yan blushed shyly, and said goodbye to Zhou Mingjue in a small voice, "Then I'll set off, and I'll report safety to you when I get there." ”
"Okay, if there is anything for Peng Jie to handle for you, if he can't handle it, call me again."
Zhou Mingjue helped her carry the suitcase into the car, and then watched the car leave.
As soon as Li Yan left, his heart suddenly emptied.
In the evening, he had to go to the old mansion, and the old man told him that the Wen family had come to the house as a guest and asked him to go back.
Zhou Mingjue thought it was just a face-to-face, and he didn't know what was going on until he went.
Since Taotao's life story was revealed, the old mansion has not been very peaceful these days.
Sheng Yunlan knew that her husband was outside behind her back when he was alive.
It's okay to mess around, and I also got a child for her.
What makes her most angry is that this child is still a man.
The old man has always been patriarchal, so her daughter has no status in the Zhou family at all.
So she made a small fuss and ran to Zhuang Suxin to cry, saying how much she had paid for this family and how much credit she had.
But after all, she is just a daughter-in-law, not a daughter-in-law.
Zhuang Suxin only comforted her perfunctorily, and then said that no matter what, Taotao must not be kept in the Zhou family.
Sheng Yunlan saw that the attitude of the old man and the old lady was so resolute, so she didn't continue to make trouble.
Her mother's strength is not as good as the Zhou family, nor is it as good as the Wen family, she has no confidence to make trouble.
Sheng Yunlan could only swallow this mouthful of bitter water back into her stomach, although Zhuang Suxin couldn't bear it, but it could only be so.
When Zhou Mingjue returned to the old mansion, he was almost half an hour late.
He apologized to the elders at the dinner table, and the old man and the second elder of the Wen family did not blame him.
Zhou Mingjue was arranged to sit next to Wen Xuening, Wen Xuening smiled lightly at him, but Zhou Mingjue had no expression, still looking cold.
At the moment, he has only one idea, that is, to leave immediately after the dinner.
Wen Xuening's smile also faded, only to hear Father Wen say straight to the point: "Mingjue, don't you mind if I call you that?" ”
"Don't mind, uncle."
"Okay, then I'll have something to say." Father Wen cleared his throat and said, "I came today to discuss your marriage to Xue Ning, and I heard your father say that you have not married a wife yet." ”
When Zhou Mingjue heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly, and for a moment, he even suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
He immediately said, "Uncle, I think you misunderstood my father's meaning, although I have not married a wife, I already have a date. ”
Father Wen frowned and glanced at Zhou Zhengde, this old thing didn't tell him the truth.
Zhou Zhengde hurriedly explained: "The gadgets that dogs raise outside are not serious objects. ”
This sentence angered Zhou Mingjue, he narrowed his eyes, and a wave of anger emanated from him.
"She is not the woman I raised outside, she is the mother of my future children, and she is the person I want to marry in the future."
Zhou Mingjue said calmly, but there was a bit of displeasure in these words.
When Father Wen heard that even the parties involved had admitted it, he looked at Zhou Zhengde with some anger and said, "Brother Zhou, this is what you call an unmarried match?" ”
Zhou Zhengde panicked, he didn't know that this rebel would say such a thing in front of the Wen family.
Wen Xuening's heart was completely cold because of Zhou Mingjue's words, even if she gave birth to a child of the Zhou family, what she couldn't get would never be obtained.
"Dad, let's go." Wen Xuening suddenly spoke.
Father Wen refused, he said to Zhou Zhengde: "Brother Zhou, if you still want to go back to Taotao, I advise you to take care of these housework first and then come to talk to our family about marriage." ”
Without waiting for Old Man Zhou to answer, Father Wen led his wife and Wen Xuening to leave.
In an instant, only the old man, Zhuang Suxin and Zhou Mingjue were left on the dinner table.
Zhou Mingjue figured it out, it turned out that he married Wen Xuening so that the child could return to Zhou's house justifiably.
The old man picked up the bowl in his hand and threw it towards Zhou Mingjue, he scolded angrily: "Rebel! That's how you talk in front of outsiders!? Have you saved some face for your father! ”
Zhou Mingjue deftly dodged, his eyes seemed to be hiding a sharp sword, and he stared at the old man coldly.
There wasn't much emotion on his face, but his tone seemed to be quenched with ice.
"You don't hesitate to sacrifice my happiness, why should I save face for you?"
