After thinking for a while, he added, "Although they are upside down, fickle, and incomplete, no one is perfect, and no gold is pure. Now, to me, the Chen family is perfect, so how can I nitpick?"
It was a response to the dozen grapes from Chen Jianfang.
After saying that, Xianjin bent over and walked inside.
"Xianjin——"
Chen Jianfang suddenly spoke.
Xianjin turned around in confusion.
Chen Jianfang's eyes were shining brightly, like fireflies in the mangroves, or like the hallucinating starlight on the bottom of the sea.
Chen Jianfang's throat moved slightly and he swallowed two or three mouthfuls of saliva with difficulty, as if he wanted to get rid of all his cowardice and procrastination.
"No...it's okay!"
"Have a good sleep."
"After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather will turn colder, and your jacket from last year may not be wearable anymore, so make one as soon as possible."
Xianjin was stunned for a moment, scratched his head with one hand, and replied "OK" without understanding the meaning. He answered the question honestly, "Auntie Zhang bought me several pieces of cloth and several kilograms of cotton a few days ago. I'm waiting for the weather to cool down to wear them."
Chen Jianfang forced a smile and motioned Xianjin to go in quickly. Looking at the girl's tall and thin back, Chen Jianfang sighed silently in his heart.
Still...it hasn't been resolved yet...
The words are on the tip of my tongue.
"If you are by my side, the Chen family is not hopeless."
"I am pleased with you, He Xianjin."
"Please believe me."
Why can't I say these three simple lines of words?
Perhaps it was because it was too shocking - how could he avoid the orders of his parents and the words of the matchmaker and spend his life with a girl?
Perhaps it was because he was too timid—afraid of being rejected by Xianjin, and even more afraid of causing trouble to Xianjin?
Perhaps it was because he had too many concerns - how to deal with his grandmother? How to solve the problem in the family? Although Xianjin's surname was not Chen, she was still the stepdaughter of his third uncle and was still considered a member of the Chen family. This was a matter of ethics and morality, so how should he deal with it?
Why couldn't he say it?
Chen Jianfang put his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly in the dark narrow alley, and let out a long sigh.
But fortunately, Xianjin has always been here.
People like Qu Mang'er, Zhang Mang'er, Li Ganniu...are nothing to be afraid of.
These people are not even worthy of carrying Xianjin's shoes, so how can they get married?
fine.
He still has time.
There is still a long time to grind, soak and smooth out.
And his hidden gold is right there.
