Snuggled in the quilt at night, Du Jiang could still feel the heat of the heavy arms around his waist and abdomen. Du Jiang turned over uncomfortably.

The moonlight outside the window seemed very bright, reflecting in through the gaps in the curtains and hitting the windowsill, making Du Jiang a little dazed. The beating in his chest was still very violent and could not calm down for a long time.

"Am I getting married?" Du Jiang whispered under the quilt. There was sweetness, expectation, hesitation and fear in her tone.

Of course, it was not only Du Jiang but also Huo Yang who suffered from insomnia that night. Perhaps after offending the beauty, Huo Yang also returned home with a red face.

"Du Jiang and I are getting married," the bombshell news at the dinner table left Mrs. and Mr. Huo so shocked that they couldn't react quickly, but of course, they were immediately filled with joy.

Mrs. Huo smiled kindly, her eyes curved into crescents, "Really, Xiao Jiang agreed." Then she glanced at Old Man Huo worriedly, then turned to look at Huo Yang uncertainly, "Yangyang, although you have been engaged since childhood, this is a new society. You are not allowed to do such things as forcible robbery."

Huo Yang was immediately at a loss for words. "Grandma, what are you talking about? Am I that kind of person? I only told you about the marriage after Du Jiang agreed. You can just help me propose tomorrow."

"Really?" Old man Huo also had doubts. It was not because they had no confidence in their grandson, but because the two of them had very little contact with each other, and the old man could only count the number of times he had had such little contact.

"Don't worry, don't you trust my character? Even if you don't trust me, don't you trust Du Jiang?" Huo Yang looked helpless and almost raised his hand to swear.

Now Mrs. Huo and Mr. Huo believed what the other party said was true, but they were still very curious about how these two people could progress so quickly under their noses. Unfortunately, Huo Yang was on high alert, and no matter how much Mr. Huo and Mrs. Huo asked, they couldn't get to the bottom of it.

Huo Yang also fled in panic due to a series of questions from the old couple.

Watching Huo Yang running away with half his ear red, Old Man Huo and Old Lady Huo burst into laughter. After a burst of laughter, the old couple began to discuss the matter of proposing marriage.

"Old man, why don't I try to contact Li Hongjun's mother-in-law?" Mrs. Huo counted on her fingers and found that there were very few available. "I don't know if she can do it. It wouldn't be a good idea to tell Du Jiang directly."

"Well, I think it's okay," Old Man Huo said without compromise. "Anyway, we are all outsiders and don't have many contacts with the villagers. It's okay to just go to their house. What's more, our family and the Du family are old friends. The things that arranged the marriage are still there. Old Du's wife has a good relationship with Du Jiang. But if we suddenly come to their house, I guess they will ask a lot of questions. We haven't verified Du Jiang's testimony. Why don't you just go to their house and try."

After Old Man Huo said this, Old Lady Huo also nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go and ask first, but I guess we can't have a big wedding."

Old Mrs. Huo did not comment on this. "It's no big deal. Just give more to the young couple in private. Our things now all belong to Yangyang anyway. As for Aze getting married, there's no hope for him." Old man Huo felt a headache when he thought of his youngest son.

Old Mrs. Huo, on the other hand, was more open-minded. "It's already like that, so just think about it. No one else would go to this remote place just for him. Don't think I don't know. You were so satisfied when you knew Du Siming was coming." Looking at Old Man Huo's face, Old Mrs. Huo did not hesitate to uncover his hidden thoughts. "It turns out that you are not the one who is secretly happy."

"Tsk, what do you know?" Old Man Huo did not refute. "Our son is very attractive. If I had known earlier, I should not have entrusted him to Du Siming for work. Now he has walked right into the tiger's mouth."

"Alright, just say a few words." Old Mrs. Huo's heart burned when she mentioned this matter. "Anyway, I'm here now. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. I'll just take good care of Yangyang."

Old man Huo agreed with this and said, "That's true. Okay, then you go ask tomorrow. I'll take the sheep for a walk on the riverbank."

"Well, be careful when you go to the riverbank. And can you please avoid pulling the sheep's wool?" Mrs. Huo felt a headache when she thought of the sheep that was almost plucked bald. "Why do you have to pull only one sheep? Can't you switch?"

Old Man Huo touched the tip of his nose awkwardly, "Isn't that because I'm used to it, hehe."

Mrs. Huo was speechless. "Alright, I don't want to bother talking to you. Now that the new official has taken office, Du Siming will not recognize us no matter what. Don't go too far."

"I know, do I need to tell you?"

After chatting for a few more sentences, the old couple went back to the house leisurely. Perhaps she was worried about something, so Mrs. Huo got up early the next morning. She quickly boiled water and washed up, and even got Huo Yang, who was resting at home, up early.

Huo Yang looked drowsy as he stared at the dawn outside. Still half asleep, he felt a bit bewildered. "Grandma, what are you doing up so early?"

"You kid," Old Mrs. Huo, who was spreading pancakes, glanced at the unshaven Huo Yang unhappily, "You seem to be taking it easy. Don't you remember that you went to Du Jiang to propose marriage today?"

Ah, Huo Yang held his forehead, "My dear grandma, you can't go to propose marriage so early in the morning, right? Du Jiang hasn't woken up yet, okay?"

"Do you think everyone is as lazy as you?"

Huo Yang sighed in disbelief after being hung up. There was nothing he could do about it because the old lady Huo at home was so domineering that even old man Huo had to avoid her.

"Okay, grandma, I'll light the fire." Huo Yang didn't know what else to do except light the fire. Old man Huo on the side looked at Huo Yang with sympathy, and when old lady Huo glared at him, he quickly forced a smile and said, "Old woman, I'm going to herd the sheep, I'm going to herd the sheep." After saying that, he trotted forward, picked up two fried multi-grain cakes and walked out. Soon, the sound of sheep leaving the pen and the sound of the door closing were heard from the yard.

Looking at the sky which was slightly brighter than before, Huo Yang lost all his energy. He tried hard to curl up his body so that Old Lady Huo wouldn't notice him. Unfortunately, his big body couldn't be made smaller even when he was in a ball.

"Yangyang, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but what kind of girl would be interested in you if you don't comb your hair, wash your face, or brush your teeth, even though you're a good-looking young man?"

"And that beard of yours? Why are you so untidy? Look, everyone would dress up to look good before meeting a girl, but you went to meet Xiao Jiang like that. Luckily Xiao Jiang didn't mind. If it were someone else, he would have walked away without even looking back."

"And your job, you work one day and rest the next, and every time you come back you don't even think about asking a girl out to watch a movie or something. Why do you think you're such a hot commodity, waiting for someone to come to you?"

Perhaps it was because Huo Yang's image at the moment was too bad, and no matter how Mrs. Huo looked at him, she felt something was wrong. Her lips opened and closed like a machine gun, and Huo Yang didn't dare to breathe a single breath.
