Chapter 642: Finale (Part 2)

When Yu Lingye said this, there was a hint of gnashing of teeth in his voice.

Xie Yingmian followed Yu Lingye's gaze.

Sure enough, I saw Yaya walking side by side with a young man.

The young man bought Yaya's favorite milk tea. Yaya took it with a smile on her face and held the boy's hand.

Such an intimate action, the relationship is self-evident.

Yu Lingye suppressed his urge to smother the man and asked Xie Yingmian, "Did Yaya say anything to you?"

Xie Yingmian shook her head: "She didn't say anything. I didn't know she was in a relationship."

Yu Lingye: "Tianjia, go check."

Tianjia was just about to take the order and go investigate.

Sui Sui suddenly jumped out: "Don't check, I know."

Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye stared at Sui Sui's death.

Sui Sui felt the strong pressure from the two parents in front of him and scratched his head: "Didn't you notice?"

"That man is Shen Xingyao."

“It’s Xingxing, the eldest son of Shen Tingsi and Qin Shuqing.”

"You still remember that when Yaya was sixteen, she founded a newspaper. The newspaper would publish articles from all over the country, and anyone who published it would receive a certain amount of money."

"One of the authors, whose pen name is Qin Xing, had almost every article published. Yaya was so impressed by Qin Xing's literary talent that she dedicated a special page to him."

"Qin Xing's writing is sharp and critical of current issues. He dares to write, and Yaya dares to publish."

"As time went by, the two of them started to contact each other more frequently."

"Shen Xingyao didn't know that the newspaper was founded by Yaya, and Yaya didn't know that Qin Xing was Shen Xingyao. When the two met in person, they were both stunned."

"Later, the two discovered that they had similar interests and values. Because of their parents' relationship, they knew each other well, so Yaya tried to get along with Shen Xingyao."

"No, we're getting along pretty well."

Yu Lingye's face turned dark.

Chen Tingsi's son dared to take away his little cotton-padded jacket.

Good, very good!

Xie Yingmian also felt sad.

The little girl that he raised with great difficulty was secretly in love right under his nose.

In her heart as an old mother...

An indescribable feeling.

However, Sui Sui is right.

They knew Shen Xingyao inside and out, and Shen Xingyao and Yaya were childhood sweethearts. If they could get together...

Yeah, it’s okay.

Xie Yingmian dragged Yu Lingye in the opposite direction: "Since Yaya hasn't confessed to us, let's just pretend we didn't see anything."

"There's also a place selling milk tea over there. Let's go there."

After Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye left,

Yu Songlan (Ya Ya's full name) turned around and looked in the direction where her father and mother left, raising her eyebrows slightly: "Ah, it seems we've been discovered."

Shen Xingyao's cheeks flushed slightly: "Then... I'll find a suitable opportunity to propose?"

Yu Songlan glared at Shen Xingyao: "I'm just over twenty!"

According to Uncle Sui Sui, she should still be in college at her age.

It is a good age to be in the prime of life.

She doesn't want to get married and have children at her best age.

Even if that person is Shen Xingyao, it won’t work.

She was not opposed to getting married, nor was she opposed to marrying Shen Xingyao, but she would at least wait until she was 25 years old before considering her lifelong affairs.

She told Shen Xingyao her thoughts seriously.

"Qin Xing, you know my character. I always keep my word," Yu Songlan said. "If I get married, it will definitely be after I turn 25. If you can't wait, we can part ways amicably."

"Of course, even if we are not together, it will not affect the friendship between our two families. I will keep your page for you."

Shen Xingyao chuckled: "I have the same idea as you."

"Before we were twenty-five, we were busy with our own careers."

"We'll talk about marriage after you're twenty-five."

"but……"

A blush crept onto Shen Xingyao's handsome face, which combined the best features of Shen Tingsi and Qin Shuqing. "Before you turn twenty-five, Yaya, can you be my fiancée?"

Yu Songlan shook his head firmly.

Shen Xing felt a little lost.

Just when he wanted to say that it was okay if Yaya was not his fiancée.

Yu Songlan laughed and said, "You are just like what Aunt Qin said, old-fashioned and dull."

"Aren't we in love?"

"You are my boyfriend and I am your girlfriend."

"Compared to all those red tapes, wouldn't it be more comfortable for us to get along like this?"

"Let's go. I know a really good barbecue restaurant. You just got your royalties today. How about you treat me with your royalties?"

Shen Xingyao was stunned for a moment, then chuckled.

He grabbed Yu Songlan's hand tightly and said in a loud voice, "Okay."

The other side.

Xie Yingmian finally drank the milk tea she had been longing for.

She drank while walking in the opposite direction of Yu Lingye.

Not long after he walked, Yu Lingye grabbed his sleeve again.

"What's the matter now?" Xie Yingmian asked.

Yu Lingye: "I saw pine cones."

Pine Cone is their son.

During that period, Yaya especially liked picking pine cones, so she gave her younger brother the nickname Pine Cone.

My younger brother is not very good at speaking yet, so I couldn't refuse, and I had no choice but to get a cute nickname.

Xie Yingmian stopped drinking her milk tea, her eyes widening slightly: "Song Guo is in love too?"

"How dare you, little brat, fall in love too early!"

You are just a little brat, and you dare to have a secret relationship!

Yu Lingye grabbed Xie Yingmian and said, "It's not puppy love."

"Pine Cone is out front...setting up a stall."

In the busy night market, Xie Yingmian couldn't see the pine cones from his perspective.

She deliberately walked forward a few steps and saw Songguo setting up a stall.

He wasn't selling anything, he was setting up a stall making bamboo rings.

A bamboo ring costs two cents, and you get whatever you put in the ring as a gift.

From silver ingots to vase ornaments to handmade gadgets, we have everything.

The stall was crowded with people.

Almost everyone was holding a stack of rings, ready to gamble two cents for a silver ingot.

Pine Cone and Pine Cone's servant, one happily greets guests, and the other happily collects money.

The little box is almost full of money.

They were so busy that they didn't even notice Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye approaching.

Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye looked at each other.

Xie Yingmian had a complicated expression: "You haven't given Song Guo pocket money recently?"

Yu Lingye: "Whatever he needs, he can go directly to the treasury to withdraw. His monthly salary is the same as Yaya's, three taels of silver per month. He should not be short of money."

Xie Yingmian: "Then why did he think of setting up a stall?"

Yu Lingye shook his head.

The older the child gets, the harder it is to guess what he or she is thinking.

When he was a child, Songguo and Yaya were very fond of him.

She cries loudly when she can't see him and always likes to be held by him.

When he grew up, he ignored her and refused to tell her his secrets.

Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye set their sights on Sui Sui.

Suisui really knows this.

Because the ring-tossing method was first invented by it for pine cones.

Sui Sui asked, "Are you sure you want to ask?"

"I advise you not to ask. You'll know the answer when the time comes anyway. If you keep asking, there won't be any surprises if you know the answer in advance. You'll be letting the child down."

Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye decided to be parents who would not spoil the fun.

Don't ask, just pretend you didn't see it.

In order not to cause trouble for Pine Cone, they chose another route.

It didn't take long to walk either.

They saw someone they knew again.

The acquaintance was sneaking around in the crowd.

"Tu Bufan, what are you doing sneakily?" Yu Lingye asked.

Tu Bufan was shocked.

He quickly made a shushing gesture: "Keep your voice down."

"Nuannuan, Nuannuan is in front, and there is a man next to Nuannuan." Tu Bufan gritted his teeth.

"Did you see that? That guy looks like a human but he doesn't look like a good guy."

As expected, Xie Yingmian saw Ji Nuannuan walking with a scholar-looking man.

They knew the scholar, he was a student of Chilu Academy.

According to the evaluation of the teachers of Chilu Academy, this student has the hope of entering the top three this year.

Nuannuan has good taste.

But Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye couldn't say any words of praise.

Because to Tu Bufan, a pig that takes advantage of his own daughter is still a pig no matter how outstanding it is.

Just like they couldn't praise Shen Xingyao enough.

"Oh, forget it. Daughters have their own blessings." Tu Bufan quickly comforted himself.

It's normal for my daughter to grow up and have someone she likes and her own little ideas.

Anyway, no matter what, he and his wife are the backers of Nuannuan baby.

He will fight to the death with anyone who dares to bully Nuannuan.

Tu Bufan bought Ji Yunshu's favorite braised food as if nothing had happened and went to deliver the meal to his wife who was still working overtime.

This road was not easy to go forward, so Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye had to change direction.

After walking a few steps, I met an acquaintance again.

Yanqing and Wutong brought their twins, a boy and a girl, to the food street.

Walking forward, the white-haired Cui Yi was drinking and playing finger-guessing games with an old man next to a barbecue stall.

Going further forward, Xiao Kui, who is still single in his thirties and replaced Shen Tingsi as the head of the Six Punishments Department two years ago, is on a rare vacation and is shopping with a beautiful woman.

Walk to the place where lanterns are sold.

Xiao Kui pointed at the mandarin duck lantern and said, "Look, this wild duck lantern is quite pretty."

"This little sparrow lantern has a unique shape."

“It looks kind of delicious.”

The woman looked at Xiao Kui with a strange look in her eyes. She suspected that Aunt Qin had introduced her to a fool.

What kind person would mistake mandarin ducks and lovebirds for wild ducks and sparrows?

Which kind person thinks lanterns are delicious?

"Do you like roast duck? I'm very good at removing the tendons and bones of ducks. The ducks are still breathing after the removal and the meat is firm. Then I brush them with sauce and honey and roast them over the fire. They taste delicious. Do you want to eat it?" Xiao Kui said cruel words in an innocent tone.

The woman looked at Xiaokui's smiling face and felt inexplicably eerie.

She took two steps back: "No, no."

"I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. I'll leave first."

After the woman finished speaking, she disappeared into the crowd without looking back.

Xiao Kui was helpless: "I'm really good at peeling bones and pulling out tendons, why don't you believe me?"

"Forget it, let's go back and tell Aunt Qin. Another one has been scared away."

Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye, who witnessed all of this: ...

Some people deserve to be single.

The merchants in the food street were open until the early morning before closing one after another.

It was bustling at this time.

After Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye had eaten and drunk their fill, they walked back through the crowd.

The food street is not far from the City Lord's Mansion.

They ate a lot and prepared to stroll home to digest the food.

From the food street to the city lord's mansion, there are street lights all along the way.

Street lights illuminate the night.

The entire Chilu City was as bright as day.

Due to limitations in technology and materials, there was no electricity in Shangjing, so naturally there were no electric lights.

However, there is a deep sky illuminator every year.

It and Yanqing tinkered with it for several years and finally used the deep space polar illuminator to improve it into a street lamp, which keeps it running through energy such as solar energy.

Chilu City also became the famous Daytime City.

Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye walked hand in hand in the light and shadow.

Ahead, street lights illuminate the night, lengthening their shadows, making them quiet and leisurely.

In the distance, there are the aromas of various foods, the sounds of hawking, and the bustling noise of people.

Yu Lingye looked at the hustle and bustle of life not far away and asked, "You said before that you wanted to transform your fiefdom into a golden age. Has it been realized now?"

Xie Yingmian: "Close, but still a long way off."

Yu Lingye: "Then let's keep working hard."

Xie Yingmian shook his head: "No, we should let our descendants continue to work hard. We have dedicated more than 20 years, and it is time to pass the burden to the young people."

"It's time for us to retire and have some fun."

Yu Lingye: That makes sense.

He will plan his route tomorrow so that they can enjoy their time together.

Xie Yingmian: There’s no need to be so anxious.

Yu Lingye: "Have you made any new progress in your contact with the 29th century?"

Xie Yingmian: "There is progress, but not much."

"Sui Sui and Xie Jingyun are leading this matter. They can only communicate with the 29th century through weak signals, but traveling back and forth is almost impossible."

“Even if we can go back and forth, it will cost a considerable amount.”

"actually……"

Xie Yingmian sighed, "Self-respectedly, I don't want the 29th century to have too much influence on this area. I think Sui Sui and Xie Jingyun probably have the same idea."

"Anyone who came here in the 29th century would be a superhuman being. If they wanted to rule this place, the residents here would be powerless to resist."

"Furthermore, if war breaks out, this pure land will be polluted, and vast tracts of fertile farmland will become barren. This is something I don't want to see."

"I really want to do something for the 29th century and do my best to improve its plight, but if it comes at the expense of this side, I will definitely not agree."

"Sui Sui and Xie Jingyun are also well aware of this."

"They're considering other solutions. For example, they're trying to get people in the 29th century to use advanced technology to block out the harmful radiation from space and solve the problem at its source."

She looked at Yu Lingye's solemn expression and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Sui Sui and Xie Jingyun will protect this world. This is our home, and it is also Xie Jingyun and Sui Sui's home. We will do everything we can to protect our home."

"Let's not talk about this anymore."

"I can probably guess what surprise Songguo wants to give us." Xie Yingmian blinked, "Do you want to know?"

Yu Lingye: “…I want to.”

Xie Yingmian: "Someone got married a while ago, and Songguo asked Fu Mo about our wedding. Fu Mo has always been a bit naive, so I told him that I married you to bring you good luck."

"Songguo contacted me in a roundabout way to confirm the situation, expressed sympathy for me, and encouraged me to find my own happiness."

Yu Lingye: Great, it’s another day when I want to spank my baby.

Xie Yingmian: "I told him that I married the right man by accident. You and I are a match made in heaven and we have a wonderful relationship."

Yu Lingye felt a little comforted.

Xie Yingmian smiled and said, "I overheard Song Guo and Sui Sui chatting the other day. He heard from Sui Sui that the twenty-fifth anniversary of marriage is the silver wedding anniversary."

"Combined with Sui Sui's surprise, it's not hard to guess that Song Guo might want to earn some money to buy us a silver wedding anniversary gift."

Yu Lingye's heart moved.

When Xie Yingmian married him, he was in a coma.

Everything was arranged by the concubine. The wedding was simple. Xie Yingmian also bowed in the hall with the rooster. It was hasty and sloppy, which was also his regret.

When he heard the word "silver wedding", he suddenly understood.

His eldest son gave him a great idea!

Xie Yingmian didn't know what Yu Lingye was thinking.

What she didn't know was that on the 25th anniversary of her and Yu Lingye's marriage, Yu Lingye would give her a grand wedding that she would never forget.

At that time, Xie Yingmian stood in the sunlight, with the tips of her hair stained with fine golden light.

Yu Lingye walked slowly towards him from the backlight, his posture still upright, his face still as handsome as it had been more than twenty years ago.

He stretched out his hand, and gently placed his fingertips on Xie Yingmian's palm. With just the right warmth, he firmly grasped Xie Yingmian's hand, and together they stepped into the soft light of the future.

In the soft light are their children, their relatives, their close friends, and countless people whose destinies have been changed because of them.

They smiled and blessed.

I wish her and him a happy silver wedding anniversary, and also wish them peace and prosperity in the future.
