Song Jinxiu looked at the other person in surprise. She didn't expect him to say such a thing.

But when you think about it, it seems normal. They have known each other for a long time and they are not young anymore, so it’s time for them to get married.

"I haven't thought about this issue yet. Let me go back and think about it." Song Jinxiu said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, call me when you've thought it over and I'll come to your door with the gifts." Xia Xingchen said.

Xia Xingchen thought she still had to go back and talk to her elders at home, so she readily agreed.

The two then talked about other things and returned home talking and laughing all the way.

In the evening, I had dinner with Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia at Xia's house before returning to the hotel.

It must be Comrade Xia Xingchen who sent him off.

The two places are about an hour apart, but if you are in a hurry, you can take a bus and get there in just over ten minutes.

Since both of them were fine, they chatted while walking.

Then, Xia Xingchen held Song Jinxiu's hand.

Song Jinxiu looked at the other party with confusion. Why did he start fighting for no reason?

"What's wrong?" Xia Xingchen looked at her with a smile.

Song Jinxiu shook the hand they were holding, "What are you doing? Are you being a hooligan?"

"I saw you staring at someone else's hand this morning, and I thought you were complaining that I didn't hold your hand." Xia Xingchen said with a smile.

Besides, didn’t he want to secretly hold my hand this morning?

Unfortunately, my hands were a little dirty at that time, so I dodged away for fear of dirtying her hands.

"No, I didn't." Song Jinxiu wanted to explain, but didn't know how.

Forget it, let’s just hold hands.

No, why don’t I feel blushing and my heart beating fast?

This feeling is no different from when I was holding An An's hand.

Song Jinxiu secretly touched Xia Xingchen's hand, but felt nothing. She touched it again and felt that it was rougher than An An's hand.

"What are you doing?" Xia Xingchen couldn't help but call out to the female hooligan in front of him.

Even though I was touching it secretly, I was touching my own hand. Couldn't I feel it even though I couldn't see it?

"Ah, it's okay!" Song Jinxiu pretended to be stupid.

"If you want to touch it, just do it openly. Why are you doing it secretly?" Xia Xingchen teased.

"That's right, it's not illegal to touch your boyfriend." So Song Jinxiu grabbed his palm and touched it.

"Why do you have calluses on your hands?" Song Jinxiu said as she touched the hard calluses on Xia Xingchen's palms.

"Of course. Even though I'm a pilot, I still need training." Besides, he wasn't a pilot at first.

They are all left over from fighting on the battlefield.

"Do you still have a lot of scars on your body? Knife wounds, gunshot wounds, etc." Song Jinxiu asked with concern.

Then his forehead flicked open. "What nonsense are you thinking? There aren't that many gunshot wounds or knife wounds. Just some scrapes and calluses from training."

I am lucky, as bullets have missed me many times.

The two of them walked forward, talking and laughing, without noticing a figure standing in the corner, watching them quietly.

"Aunt Zhou, what do you think of Xia Xingchen?" Song Jinxiu asked.

"Very good, he's tall and handsome, has a good job, is humble and polite to others, and dotes on you.

The most important thing is that he has a good mother, and you get along so well, so there will be basically no conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law after he gets married.

You can't find a family like this even with a lantern." Aunt Zhou said.

"I think it's pretty good too." Song Jinxiu nodded.

But why don't I have the desire to get married? Is it because we get along too well and there is no passionate love?

I don't pursue those false feelings.

Besides, isn’t the end of love also family affection?

"What's wrong? Is there a conflict?" Aunt Zhou asked when she saw Song Jinxiu lost in thought.

"No." Song Jinxiu shook her head and asked, "Aunt Zhou, do you have someone you like?"

After saying this, he was afraid that Aunt Zhou would remember her sadness about being hungry, so he spoke again quickly.

"Forget it, it's okay, go to sleep."

"It's okay. It's been so long, I've let it go long ago. My only wish now is to see that child in my lifetime," said Aunt Zhou.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You not only have to see her, but also witness her growing up and getting married. You can't try to shirk your responsibilities." Song Jinxiu said quickly.

"The child's father and I were married through an alliance. At that time, both father and son held real power in their family.

Our family lost most of its wealth because of my father, so we urgently need to cling to a more powerful person to gain more benefits.

It just so happened that the other party took a fancy to me and married me home despite my father's high asking price.

I knew from a young age that I was like a commodity waiting to be sold at a price. Although my family seemed to dote on me, that was only under the condition that there were sufficient benefits.

Fortunately, he is different from others. He treats me very well, and gradually I fall in love with him.

After his father died and he became the sole ruler, he made many drastic reforms.

Of course, reform will harm the interests of others, so everyone will join forces to deal with him.

As a result, they hurt the enemy by a thousand and their own by eight hundred. No one got anything good out of it. This also allowed the other faction to take advantage of the situation and force them to marry off their daughters.

Aunt Zhou closed her eyes. Did she blame him? Of course she did, but at that time, there was nothing she could do. If her daughter didn't marry off, most of his men would die.

His daughter was very sensible. After hearing the news, she took the initiative to ask to get married. Thinking of her well-behaved and sensible daughter, she not only blamed him, but also blamed herself.

I didn't take good care of my daughter, so I let my mother coax her back home and used a secret recipe. If she didn't have that outstanding appearance, there wouldn't be so many troubles.

Song Jinxiu hugged Aunt Zhou, and her whole body was surrounded by deep sorrow.

"You are a good child, and Xia Xingchen is also a good child. You don't spend much time together now, so your feelings may not be that deep.

But you can get along slowly after you are together. You have met his parents. Children raised in such a family are not bad at all.

Besides, you two are getting along very harmoniously now, aren’t you?

A harmonious relationship between husband and wife, and getting along well with parents-in-law, this is the life that many women dream of.

Not to mention that your Aunt Xia loves you like her own daughter." Aunt Zhou said to Song Jinxiu.

Song Jinxiu nodded, it seemed that this was correct.

Anyway, I don’t have any big pursuits, I just want to live an ordinary life.

I used to get along very well with Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia at home.

So even if Xia Xingchen is not at home in the future, she can still keep Aunt Xia company and will not feel lonely.

After thinking things through, Song Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that she was a bad woman who fell in love with every man she met.
