Chapter 299 Seven Stars in a Row
Looking at his serious expression, it seemed as if this was really the case.
Xia Xing'er decided to give it a try. After looking around and seeing that there was no one around, she stared into Xuanyuan Yi's eyes and said, "I like you, too!" under his forced calm gaze.
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Yi, who was as cold and handsome as an iceberg a second ago, suddenly grinned at this moment, his smile was as gentle as the spring breeze in March.
"I knew you liked me too, Xing'er."
Xia Xinger: "..."
When did this guy learn to climb up the pole?
"Since you like me so much, I agree to marry you."
Just because of her words, Xuanyuan Yi happily played with the Dragon Roar Sword for a long time, finally venting his excitement and joy that Ziyi had nowhere to put.
Xia Chengsheng happened to see this scene and shook his head. He had never realized that this kid was a fool before. Instead of spending more time with his own daughter, he was playing with swords here. How could he get a wife?
Xuanyuan Yi didn't know that his future father-in-law had already scolded him in his mind, and he was extremely happy at the moment.
The next morning, before Bai Wan'er left for the store, she was stopped by Xuanyuan Yi.
"Second sister-in-law, I want to ask you to do me a favor!"
Bai Wan'er didn't know what he wanted to talk to her about. When she was in the capital, she had heard her husband talk about him and had a good impression of him.
Later, I learned that he liked his sister-in-law. First, he asked Emperor Shunkang to arrange a marriage, and then he gave her the Black Potassium Army as a token of his affection.
He knew that this man would not easily ask for help from others, let alone the Xia family.
Bai Wan'er looked at his uncontrollable joy and knew that this matter must be related to Xia Xing'er.
Only when it comes to Xia Xing'er does he show different emotions.
"What's the matter?"
Bai Wan'er is really curious now. What good thing happened to Xuanyuan Yi that made him so happy?
Xuanyuan Yi said solemnly: "I would like you to embroider a wedding dress for Xing'er!"
Bai Wan'er was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood and couldn't help but chuckle with her hands covering her lips.
"Xing'er agreed to marry you?"
Xuanyuan Yi said a little embarrassedly: "Yes, I want to give Xing'er a grand wedding!"
Bai Wan'er smiled and nodded: "That's how it should be. Xing'er deserves the best!"
She knew very well that without Xia Xing'er, there was no way their family would have been able to reach Liangzhou safely.
The journey of exile would not be so easy and carefree.
It’s all thanks to Xia Xing’er that their family can live the life they have now.
Although her sister-in-law had an unhappy marriage in the past, even if she is getting married for the second time now, she deserves the best.
If the family didn't know Xuanyuan Yi's feelings for Xia Xing'er, they would not agree.
This guy must have done good deeds in his previous life, which is why he met her sister-in-law in this life.
"Now that the decision has been made and Xing'er has agreed, leave the wedding dress to me. Don't forget that I'm Xing'er's family!"
Originally, the wedding dress was something that the bride's family should prepare. She was Xing'er's second sister-in-law, and now that such an important task fell on her, she had to embroider a unique wedding dress for her sister-in-law.
Zhuge Pei learned about this from Bai Wan'er, and that same day she took out the piece of top-quality Fire Cloud Brocade from her own dowry, which she had never been willing to use, and used it as the fabric for embroidering her wedding dress.
Liu Youran also began to rummage through her dowry.
I picked and chose among sets of head ornaments, jewelry, and jade ruyi, but I always felt that there were too few of these things.
She wanted to prepare a dowry for Xing'er, and these things were too little.
She knocked her head with the green jade Ruyi and said, "I am really old. I don't have enough things here. Shouldn't I return them to my husband?"
No matter what, she had to prepare a generous dowry for her daughter.
At this time, Liu Youran forgot that their future son-in-law Xuanyuan Yi had not yet proposed.
She had already hurriedly begun preparing her dowry.
What she was thinking in her heart was that she had to have a good talk with Xuanyuan Yi. Her daughter was getting married, and they had her backing, so she couldn't let him look down on her.
No, Xing'er must live in her own home. The new house will be built soon and her daughter must live in it.
Liu Youran thought with a smile, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his method was good.
Although Xuanyuan Yi has not yet proposed, the Xia family has already started preparing for this matter without telling Xia Xing'er.
Xia Xing'er is still busy with the formation. Tonight at the hour of Yin is the day when the seven stars will align. She has been busy for three whole nights, waiting for this moment.
Only when this matter is settled will she be in the mood to think about other things.
Stone Village looks particularly different tonight. The sky has turned into pure blue-black, and the moon is a little brighter than usual.
The weather was still very hot and humid, and it didn't get much cooler even at night.
After dinner, everyone sat by the ice basin to enjoy the cool air and chat about family matters. When they felt sleepy, they said goodbye and went back to their rooms to rest.
Liu Youran couldn't fall asleep at all. Her eyelids were twitching so much that she felt like something was going to happen.
She sat up, put on her clothes, got out of bed, took a small stool, went out of the room, sat in the corridor, stood outside Xia Xing'er's door, and sat quietly looking at the dark night.
When Liu Youran stood up, Xia Chengsheng also opened his eyes. Like his wife, he couldn't sleep tonight.
He just watched quietly as his wife sat up, put on her clothes, picked up a small stool and went straight out the door.
After Liu Youran left, he stopped pretending to be asleep and got up, put on his clothes, took a small stool and came to Liu Youran, sitting side by side with her at the door of Xia Xinger's room.
Neither of them spoke, but they leaned against each other tacitly.
After being married for more than 20 years, they understand each other's thoughts.
At this moment, they are just an ordinary pair of parents, worried about their daughter and waiting for her to return home safely.
Xia Xing'er and Xuanyuan Yi were not in the house. They left Stone Village just as the sun was setting.
Originally, Xia Xing'er wanted to go alone, but Xuanyuan Yi was unwilling and insisted on going with her. Xia Xing'er had no choice but to agree.
Liu Youran and Xia Chengsheng sat there until almost the hour of Yin.
The sky is dotted with stars, and seven stars almost in a line are shining exceptionally brightly.
The whole Stone Village was in turmoil.
Everyone seemed to have noticed something unusual in the sky, and they all came out to watch the spectacle of the seven stars in a row.
Some people were just woken up from sleep, some had gotten up to watch the night scene, and almost half of the people in Stone Village were startled by this rare astronomical spectacle.
Everyone was in confusion, not knowing whether it was a good or bad omen. Throughout history, the appearance of a spectacle like the Seven Planets in a Conjunction has always been a sign of either great bad luck or great good luck.
