"Hmm~"
Li Rouniang felt a splitting headache and sat up, clutching her head.
"You're awake?" Mo Bei stepped forward and sat down on the edge of the stone bed, reaching out to touch Li Rouniang's head.
Li Rouniang was somewhat surprised and flinched, feeling that Mo Bei's words and actions were too intimate.
At the same time, the image of her taking the initiative to kiss him flashed through her mind. She and Mo Bei…
Her face turned bright red at the thought.
"I'm much better now, thank you." Li Rouniang was a little embarrassed, unsure how to face Mo Bei.
Mo Bei's face also turned slightly red. However, since he had already made up his mind, he would not hesitate any longer.
"I plan to marry you after the New Year, what do you think?" Mo Bei asked seriously.
Both of them were getting on in years, and Mo Bei felt there was no need to waste any more time.
"Get married!" Li Rouniang was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Mo Bei would actually agree to marry her.
"Yes, I've already thought it through. When we get down the mountain later, I'll go talk to my father first. Once I'm ready, we'll get married after the New Year," Mo Bei said firmly.
He had just started thinking: the house is too small and needs to be expanded. It'll be after the New Year anyway.
"That Mo Bei, I think..." Li Rouniang wanted to say: I think we should all calm down a bit.
But Mo Bei picked up where she left off, saying, "Or perhaps Rou Niang thinks it's too late after the New Year?"
As Mo Bei spoke, he leaned forward, and the two of them were so close that Li Rouniang's heart pounded wildly.
Li Rouniang tried to dodge, but Mo Bei grabbed her and kissed her.
"Rou Niang, I've already made up my mind about you, and you're not allowed to back down," Mo Bei said domineeringly.
Li Rouniang felt a little lost, but also a little sweet.
"I just wanted to ask if you need to calm down?" Li Rouniang tentatively asked, after all, her own circumstances were not good.
"If I don't stay calm, we might not be able to get down the mountain tonight," Mo Bei said ambiguously.
Li Rongniang stopped talking. The two tidied up quickly, and Mo Bei took Li Rongniang's hand and walked down the mountain.
Li Rouniang's heart was in turmoil the whole way. Her mind was in a mess, wondering if Old Man Mo would agree if she really got together with Mo Bei, and whether the children would accept it.
“Mo Bei, I want to talk to you about something.” Li Rou Niang stopped and looked at Mo Bei seriously.
"You speak, I'm listening." Mo Bei looked at Li Rou Niang with a deep gaze.
Li Rouniang felt some pressure, but still said, "Mo Bei, it's better to keep our affairs a secret for now. Look, the children don't know yet, and neither does Uncle Mo."
"Rou Niang, I'll talk to my father, so don't worry. As for the children, I think we've spent some time together, so they shouldn't object. Even if they do, I'll find a way to get them to agree. You can rest assured and be my bride," Mo Bei said firmly.
Li Rouniang had nothing to say, but felt somewhat relieved. And so the two descended the mountain.
"Do you want me to take you home?" Mo Bei asked.
"No need." Li Rouniang waved her hand and ran quickly home. Mo Bei didn't go back immediately, but stood there until he saw Li Rouniang's figure walk into the yard before he went home.
"How is Rou Niang?" Old Man Mo asked with concern.
When Erni ran over and said that her mother had fainted, he was very anxious, thinking that Mo Bei had taken Li Rouniang to town to see a doctor.
"Father, I have something to tell you." Mo Bei stepped forward and said seriously.
"What is it? Tell me."
"Father, I want to marry Rou Niang," Mo Bei said firmly as he stepped forward.
"Why so suddenly?" Old Man Mo asked.
"It's not sudden. I've had this thought for a while, but I only understand my own feelings now," Mo Bei said.
"Mo Bei, you need to know that Xiao Shan is the most important person." Old Man Mo also wanted his son to be happy, but their responsibilities were more important.
"Father, I understand, but that doesn't stop me from having my own life, does it? Besides, Rou Niang is very good to Xiao Shan." Mo Bei felt that responsibility and marriage were not mutually exclusive.
“Alright, if you’ve already made up your mind, then I won’t object. Does she agree?” Old Man Mo nodded. How could he not want his son to settle down and start a family as soon as possible?
“She has agreed,” Mo Bei said sweetly.
"So when do you plan to marry her?" Old Man Mo asked.
"After the New Year, I'd like to renovate this house into a two-story building, so that our whole family can live together more easily," Mo Bei said, revealing his plans.
Old Man Mo nodded: "As long as you have a plan in mind, that's fine."
"Thank you, Dad." Mo Bei grinned, revealing eight big white teeth. It's so good that Dad doesn't object!
"Silly boy, I'm relieved to see you settled down and starting a family," Old Man Mo said with a smile.
Meanwhile, on Li Rouniang's side, Xiuer, Dani, and Erni rushed over to her when they saw her return:
"Rou Niang, are you alright?" Xiu'er asked.
"Mother, I'm sorry, it's my fault that you've suffered," Da Ni said with remorse.
"Mother, is there anything still bothering you?" Erni asked with concern.
Li Rouniang smiled, patted the two children's heads, shook her head and said, "Don't worry, I'm all better now."
"That's good. Go back to your room, change your clothes, and get some rest," Xiu'er said.
After tidying up, Li Rouniang took her two children's hands and said, "Da Ni, I want to sincerely apologize to you and Er Ni. I didn't explain the divorce between your father and me to you. Your father and I will never be able to live together again, but your father and I will love you both."
