There are consequences to being a traitorous official.
First: Being born into a loyal official's family. She felt out of place and uncomfortable all over.
Second: Following her loya...
Duan Ruoqing's parents wanted Sisi to return to where she came from. But...
Aside from his looks, Lao Bai is someone you couldn't find anywhere else with a lantern.
"Hahahaha..." Duan Ruoqing's father laughed a few times. "Since you're so straightforward, then I won't pretend anymore. I agree to this marriage."
Duan Ruoqing's mother laughed and said, "I told you not to scare your son-in-law, but you insisted on doing it anyway."
Feng Chan immediately started to play the stern face when she saw them agree. "You should have been scared. My daughter is too young to take it seriously. My daughter is good in every way, except she's very protective of her own. You'll see when you marry Ruoqing to Lao Bai."
“My daughter has always been biased towards her relatives, regardless of right or wrong. Once you marry Ruoqing to Lao Bai, Ruoqing will also be my daughter’s family.”
“My daughter has known Lao Bai since she was three years old. Lao Bai dotes on my daughter and takes her out to play every day. My daughter is closer to Lao Bai than to me.”
“Daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Duan are just going through the motions; they don’t look down on Lao Bai.”
Feng Chan not only said that Si Si was protective of her own, but also said that after Duan Ruoqing married Lao Bai, she also became the one Si Si had to protect.
Duan Ruoqing's parents were relieved.
So it was because you were protective of your own?
It's good to protect your own.
Duan Ruoqing's parents initially disliked Lao Bai's appearance, but now...
What's there to complain about? If they keep complaining, Yun Xiaoliu will just drag their son-in-law home.
Duan Ruoqing's father looked at Sisi and said, "You must have had a long journey."
“还行。谢谢你们愿意把女儿嫁给老白。你们放心,老白要是敢做对不起你们女儿的事我就让老黑揍他。你们知道老黑吧?”
"I know." She wiped out the assassin organization that had trained him to be a killing machine with a single move. He thought Old Black was being hunted down, but it turns out he was subdued by this little girl.
Duan Ruoqing's father wanted to ask Sisi what Lao Bai used to do, but he was afraid Sisi wouldn't want to tell him. If Sisi didn't want to tell him, she might refuse directly, and if Sisi refused directly, how embarrassing would that be for him?
"I'm relieved to hear you say that. Hahaha... Let's go home."
Little Duan Yuchen was a little confused. "Father, Mother, Aunt Yun, Sister Yun, what are you talking about? I don't understand?"
Feng Chan looked at Duan Yuchen and smiled, "You said your sister is going to marry your Uncle Bai, and Uncle Bai will be your brother-in-law from now on. Aren't you happy?"
Duan Yuchen's eyes widened immediately. "Really? That's great! Brother-in-law, can I pester you to take me out to play like I did when I was twelve or thirteen?"
"Yes. Let me tell you, when it comes to having fun, no one can beat you."
Feng Chan explained, "Twelve is my nephew, and Thirteen is my son."
Duan Ruoqing's parents were relieved. They knew that Lao Bai loved visiting brothels. Since Feng Chan dared to let Twelve and Thirteen go out with Lao Bai, it meant that Lao Bai wouldn't take the children to those disreputable places.
Upon arriving at the Duan family home, Feng Chan first had someone unload the gifts that Lao Bai had prepared for Duan Ruoqing's parents before unloading hers.
After seeing the gifts prepared by Lao Bai and Feng Chan, Duan Ruoqing's parents believed that the couple had come sincerely to propose marriage.
After some pleasantries, Feng Chan took out the list of betrothal gifts.
Now, Duan Ruoqing's parents were even more convinced that they were sincerely asking for her hand in marriage.
After chatting for a while, Duan Ruoqing's parents told Duan Ruoqing and her siblings to take Feng Chan and the others to rest.
After they left, Duan Ruoqing's mother looked at her brother and said, "Brother, why didn't you tell us that Lao Bai looks like this?"
"I thought you'd see it when I arrived. Who knew Yun Xiaoliu would be so protective of his own?"
On the other side, Duan Ruoqing looked at Sisi and smiled, "Little Six, aren't you afraid my parents will get angry and kick you out?"
She'd rather leave; she didn't want to find Lao Bai a father-in-law and mother-in-law who disliked his looks.
Sisi gave Duan Ruoqing a smile. "If your parents kick us out, we'll take you back with us."
Duan Ruoqing: "..." Could it be that Xiao Liu has been wanting to experience the thrill of stealing a bride for a long time?
Feng Chan: "What nonsense are you talking about? If your parents don't agree, we're not going to leave."
Duan Yuchen: "Aunt Yun, I think Sister Yun's idea is good."
Sister Yun: "You've got potential."
Aunt Yun: "Don't listen to your sister Yun's nonsense. Kidnapping a bride is illegal."
After chatting for a while, Duan Ruoqing left with her younger brother.
After they left, Lao Bai looked at Sisi and Fengchan and said, "You two are really something, managing to win over my father-in-law and mother-in-law with just a few words."
Sisi: "If we don't scare them a little, they'll always try to find fault with us."
Feng Chan: "Come on, you just can't stand seeing others dislike Lao Bai."
"Hehe... Mother, you know me best."
On the other side, Duan Ruoqing's mother pulled her into the house when she saw Duan Ruoqing return. "Yun Xiaoliu is so capable, won't she be very controlling when you live with Lao Bai?"
“I would like Xiao Liu to take charge, but Xiao Liu definitely won’t. Lao Hei and his wife just live their own lives, and Xiao Liu never interferes.”
Duan Ruoqing's mother was relieved. "You child, why do you still expect others to take care of you?" One of the reasons she liked Lao Bai so much was because Lao Bai's family background was simple.
Duan Ruoqing looked at her mother and said, "Because Xiao Liu is on my side. As soon as Xiao Liu found out that I was going to marry Lao Bai, he told Lao Bai not to go to the brothels in and around the capital anymore, so that others would laugh at me."
"Yeah?"
"That's right. Old Bai used to stay in brothels whenever he returned to the capital, but he hasn't been once this time."
Duan Ruoqing's mother was surprised. "Yun Xiaoliu's words are so effective?"
