Chapter 866 Will You Marry Me?
The old village chief's attitude was very strong and there was no room for maneuver.
Li Qingyan knew that now was not the time to show off, so he took the initiative to make concessions.
"Getting married is not a trivial matter. I need two days to think about it."
Seeing that he seemed to be relaxed, the old village chief's expression eased a little.
"Okay, go back and think about it carefully. I really think highly of you and I hope you won't let me down."
Li Qingyan turned and walked out.
At this time, a middle-aged man walked in and asked in confusion.
"Dad, why are you still giving him time to think? He's obviously trying to stall for time."
The old village chief said slowly: "If it were someone else, I would naturally not give him a chance to delay time, but he is different. He is a scholar and a smart man with brains. Our village needs such a person."
Originally, when there were no scholars in the village, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it, until Yun Changsheng came and made him realize the benefits of having a scholar.
Now that Yun Changsheng is gone, a man named Li Qingyan happened to come to the village.
The old village chief felt that this was God's will.
So he didn't mind giving Li Qingyan more time.
The old village chief then asked, "How is Ke Xin doing?"
Middle-aged man: "My wife just talked to her for a while, and she seemed to have listened to me."
The old village chief nodded with satisfaction: "I knew Ke Xin was a sensible and good child."
…
While the old village chief was talking to Li Qingyan, Yun Kexin was pulled into another room by Aunt Honghua to talk.
Aunt Honghua is the daughter-in-law of the old village chief. She is not only capable, but also very eloquent.
Aunt Honghua said a lot, but to sum it up, there is only one meaning -
I hope Yun Kexin can marry Li Qingyan as soon as possible.
Yun Kexin blushed and felt very embarrassed.
Seeing that she was too embarrassed to stay any longer, Aunt Honghua let her go.
After Yun Kexin walked out, she saw Li Qingyan at a glance.
Their eyes met.
Yun Kexin's heartbeat quickened.
She immediately lowered her head and walked shyly towards him.
Li Qingyan: "Go back."
Yun Kexin nodded and followed him back.
Normally when the two of them were together, Li Qingyan would always find some topics to talk about so as not to make the atmosphere too lonely, but today he didn't say a word the entire time.
Yun Kexin keenly noticed that something was wrong with his mood.
She secretly looked at his profile, observing his expression, and saw that his brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about some difficult problem.
Yun Kexin's originally frantic mood gradually calmed down.
She could feel that Li Qingyan was not very happy.
She wanted to ask him what was wrong?
But she didn't dare ask, for fear that he would think she was meddling too much.
The two returned home in this depressing atmosphere.
As soon as she entered the house, Yun Kexin immediately ran to help Zhou light the fire and cook.
While eating dinner, Yun Kexin continued to secretly observe Li Qingyan.
She found that Li Qingyan's brows had relaxed, and he would occasionally chat with Zhou, and it seemed that his mood had improved.
Yun Kexin felt relieved.
She was very afraid that people around her would be unhappy because she couldn't speak and couldn't make others happy like normal people. Every time she saw someone unhappy, she was helpless and could only watch dryly from the side.
At that time, she would feel particularly useless.
After dinner, Yun Kexin brought hot water into the room where Li Qingyan lived.
Li Qingyan walked over and wanted to reach out to borrow the wooden basin, but Yun Kexin dodged him.
She placed the wooden basin filled with hot water on the table, then took down the small blackboard hanging from her waist and wrote on it:
Your injury hasn't healed yet, so you can't use too much force.
Li Qingyan said, "I think I'm almost well now."
Yun Kexin waved her hand and continued writing: The doctor said that your wound has only healed on the surface, and the inside has not yet fully healed, so you need to heal for a while.
She put down the small blackboard, soaked the handkerchief, wrung it dry, and then handed it over with both hands.
Li Qingyan took the warm, wet towel and wiped his face and neck.
Yun Kexin immediately took the handkerchief and dipped it into the water to scrub it.
She poured the water for washing her face into the bucket, added some hot water, and brought it over for Li Qingyan to soak her feet.
She squatted down and wanted to take off Li Qingyan's shoes and socks, but he dodged her.
Li Qingyan: "You don't need to serve me, I can do it myself."
Yun Kexin thought he disliked her, so she silently withdrew her hand, stood up and stepped aside.
Seeing this, Li Qingyan took the initiative to explain: "I appreciate your kindness, but you really don't need to do this kind of serving work."
Yun Kexin picked up the small blackboard and wrote on it: I am willing to serve you.
After finishing writing, she felt too shy and quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at Li Qingyan's reaction.
Li Qingyan sighed softly: "Miss Yun."
Yun Kexin quickly wrote a line of words: Just call me Kexin.
After writing, her face turned even redder.
Li Qingyan did not change his words, and continued, "Miss Yun, I understand your feelings."
When Yun Kexin heard this, her heart skipped a beat.
She seemed to understand what the other person meant, and the heat on her face quickly faded away.
An uneasy feeling came over me.
She wanted to interrupt the other person.
But she was mute, unable to make any sound, and didn't even have the ability to interrupt the other person.
She could only listen to him finish his words in silence.
Li Qingyan: "But I can't stay."
Even though she was mentally prepared, Yun Kexin couldn't help but tear up when she actually heard these words.
A huge disappointment surged in her heart, making her nose sore.
Li Qingyan: "I really have something very important to do. If you are willing, you can wait for me for half a year. When I finish the things at hand, I will come back to marry you."
When Yun Kexin heard this, she couldn't help but raise her head again and looked at him stupidly.
She thought she had heard wrongly.
It took her a while to come back to her senses and she wrote on the blackboard: Will you marry me?
Li Qingyan nodded without hesitation: "Of course."
Yun Kexin's heart skipped a beat.
The disappointment and bitterness in my heart quickly faded away, replaced by intense joy.
She pursed her lips, smiled quietly, and continued to write: Don’t you dislike me?
Li Qingyan asked back: "What do I dislike about you?"
Yun Kexin hardly paused and quickly wrote a line of words: I am a mute, I have no knowledge, and I don’t understand anything.
Faced with this kind of question, Li Qingyan can say many kinds of sweet words without thinking, which are guaranteed to make her happy.
But he didn't end up doing that.
After careful consideration, he said solemnly.
“I don’t know why you can’t speak, but I will ask a famous doctor to treat you.
It would be best if it can be cured, but it doesn’t matter if it can’t be cured.
Since you can write anyway, we can communicate through writing.
I think this is beautiful too.
As for your lack of experience, that’s because you have never left Dafuzhai.
This is due to the circumstances and has nothing to do with you.
When you leave here in the future and see the wider world, you will naturally understand everything."
