Ah Zhu didn't know why, but when she heard Xia Xiao say this, tears started to fall down. She looked at Xia Xiao's doting eyes, nodded vigorously, and said I do.

At the beginning, Ah Zhu's feelings for Xia Xiao were not complicated, she just wanted to carry out the plan assigned to her by the academy. The academy was kind to Ah Zhu, so Ah Zhu would repay the academy and carry out the plan regardless of the danger. But slowly, when she felt the tenderness of Xia Xiao, a cold man, she fell for him.

All along, there has been a huge mountain between Ah Zhu and Xia Xiao, which is Xia Xiao's obsession with Shu Shuang. No matter how much time has passed, the mountain will always stand in the same place, and Ah Zhu is the one who crosses the mountain. She walks towards Xia Xiao step by step, and encounters a river called Shangshan.

Xia Xiao knew that Shangshan was not Shushuang, but he had rejected Ah Zhu because of the latter. But later, Ah Zhu stopped in front of the river, and the river moved on its own, allowing it to cross the plain and approach Xia Xiao.

Ah Zhu didn't know what kind of magic Xia Xiao had that could attract him so much. But the way he pinched the back of her neck and joked with her made her yearn for him. Whenever she thought of him, she would lose her appetite and laugh.

The only one who can make Ah Zhu give up the fried duck leg rice at the academy is Xia Xiao!

Therefore, her tears at this moment were filled with sadness, joy, and self-consolation. She finally knew that she had waited for Xia Xiao to come, and after countless days and nights of anticipation and waiting, Xia Xiao really returned to her side.

Maybe it was still a little unbelievable, maybe Ah Zhu was always dissatisfied with herself and felt that she had too many shortcomings. She covered her mouth with tears. In fact, she was great. When Xia Xiao was extremely distressed and tears flashed in his eyes, he knew how much Ah Zhu had paid.

Xia Xiao, who has a good memory, will never forget the time when Ah Zhu accompanied him to the battlefield and put on his military uniform. When Shangshan was in danger, it was Ah Zhu who risked his life and accompanied him regardless of the consequences. After he became a demon, he knew that he was an enemy of the world, but he still carried his backpack and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.

South of the South China Sea, Yun Country, these places that ordinary people dare not go to, Ah Zhu, who was not very courageous to begin with, always accompanied him and went there without any complaints.

On this road, Xia Xiao owed Ah Zhu too much. The latter was once satisfied with a few steamed buns, so Xia Xiao must make her happy in the future. Xia Xiao secretly vowed that in the bright sunshine, his tears were sparkling, which was a thank you and finally taking this step.

Xia Xiao smiled and put the ring on Ah Zhu's finger with great excitement, saying softly and lovingly:

"You can't run away now, you are mine!"

Ah Zhu burst into laughter, turned away her little face, and hummed softly:

"I'm not running away!"

Ah Zhu opened his arms, and Xia Xiao immediately stood up, held him in his arms, and turned him on the ground covered with flowers. The flowers immediately left their stems and floated around them, causing the grandmother to watch with tears streaming down her face. Then, she hurriedly picked up her crutches and ran to someone else's house.

"You guys take a good rest, grandma will prepare a feast for you tonight!"

Ah Zhu looked at her energetic grandma, and her smile grew wider. Xia Xiao held her in his arms like a princess. Then, they lay in the flowers, leaning against each other in the sunshine. Ah Zhu lay in Xia Xiao's arms like a little bird, with a smile on her face. Seeing this, Xia Xiao brushed her cheek with his fingers, and his smile grew wider.

They didn't speak for a long time, just looked at each other tacitly, with deep affection. Then, Ah Zhu asked quietly:

"Tell me, if you had met me first, would you have loved me this much?"

She just wanted to ask this question suddenly, but this question was a bit difficult. After thinking about it, Xia Xiao said truthfully:

"Order is important, but when someone comes to you, it's a match made in heaven. If I like them, I will definitely keep them by my side. If I don't like them, I will naturally not keep them."

Xia Xiao seemed to be talking nonsense, but Ah Zhu didn't care. She didn't care to answer because she knew what Xia Xiao was thinking and could easily see through Xia Xiao's thoughts. His heart was like the bright sun, which would not set like the sun outside the mountain, but would always shine on the flowers, like an eternal oath that made people feel at ease.

As the sky gradually darkened, the clouds fell early. Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu woke up and sat up in the dim sea of ​​flowers. Flowers may wilt over time, but Ah Zhu will not. She, wearing a red dress, is the most beautiful flower in the world. She will always be in bloom, and she will bloom for a long time as Xia Xiao wishes, and she will be at peace forever.

Ah Zhu threw herself into Xia Xiao's arms, and when he stood up, she hung on him like a koala hugging a tree.

"Wow - I almost thought I was holding a little fat pig."

Ah Zhu's slender and fair legs were wrapped around Xia Xiao's waist, and she made a soft humming sound, which made Xia Xiao feel numb all over. But he gently twisted the soft flesh on Ah Zhu's waist, causing her to beg for mercy and shout "I'm wrong."

"Children, it's time to eat—"

Grandma leaned on her cane and waved to them. Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu hurried over. The banquet prepared by the whole village was very grand, and the two jars of wine sent by the Xia family from home made it even more perfect.

The jar was placed on the table, and the red candles cast a warm light, making the word "wine" on the red paper very clear. Grandma poured wine for everyone, and the old guys were so happy that they got carried away and said repeatedly:

"We old guys are almost old, and we drink less each time. Today, since you are here, we will drink a few more glasses."

"That's right. Big sister doesn't usually let us drink, but occasionally we secretly drink a few sips, which actually tastes good."

"Don't think too much, it's just one cup at most. With so many dishes, isn't that enough to fill your stomach?"

As soon as grandma opened her mouth, they immediately shrank their heads and muttered, "One cup after another." Seeing this, Xia Xiao smiled and raised his glass to listen to grandma:

"I wish Xia Xiao and Azhu a long and happy marriage."

The elderly woman was trembling as she held the wine glass. The figure in front of her was a little blurry, but she was still smiling happily. She used to be most worried about where Ah Zhu would go after her death. She was born beautiful and could not be buried in this unknown mountain village for the rest of her life. But if she was deceived, she would not be willing to be such a good girl. Fortunately, she met Xia Xiao and got a good home.

Seeing Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu smiling and happy, grandma felt relieved. The food was delicious, but she just couldn't eat it. She should have felt relieved, but Ah Zhu really didn't belong to her now.

After just one sip of wine, grandma felt drunk, completely drunk, and felt reluctant to leave Ah Zhu but couldn't say it. She just watched Ah Zhu pick up food for her, and watched her and Xia Xiao look into each other's eyes full of love, and couldn't help but wish them well. Her cloudy eyes were full of Ah Zhu, but she was afraid that she would find out, so she kept looking at the old guys.

A glass of wine was nothing to Xia Xiao, because he was born in a military family and had been drinking since he was a child. But because of a glass of wine, he was drunk immediately, because after a few sips of wine, the beauty beside him said it was spicy and her face was red, looking radiant. When she deliberately got closer to Xia Xiao, the gentleness in her heart gave rise to some sexy thoughts in Xia Xiao's heart.

"What's wrong? Eat your food!"

"well."

Xia Xiao coughed twice and quickly picked up some dishes. Ah Zhu praised everyone's cooking skills and said it was delicious, which made Xia Xiao glance at him and smile.

After dinner, grandma sat there drunk and didn't say anything. Old Man Hong smiled and said:

"Sister, you are old too. You are drunk with just one glass of wine."

"Xia Xiao and I will clean up the dishes."

After Ah Zhu finished speaking, he and Xia Xiao started to collect. He forgot how long he hadn't washed dishes, but it was so dark at night, and it would be bad for the old man to fall and bump into things. But looking at Ah Zhu, everything was so skillful. People who walked out of the fireworks seemed very natural even when they came back. Although for Ah Zhu, the small mountain village became smaller and the old people became older, she never forgot that she grew up here, and she always remembered the kindness of everyone to her. Even if her hands were covered with grease, she could not repay even one thousandth of the kindness.

Seeing Xia Xiao and Azhu enter the kitchen, the grandma, who was sitting in a chair in a daze, immediately pulled the people around her over, which scared them.

"What's wrong?"

"Come back with me and clean up the house."

"Why?"

"Didn't I tell you before that today is Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu's great day, how can a simple room be used?"

“Yes, yes!”

As time went by, everyone's respect for the elder sister grew, and even some of the complaints disappeared. They hurriedly picked up their crutches, groped their way, and went to the upper house to clean up.

This was the only newly renovated house in the village. In addition to the main house, the side room was also clean and spacious. A few days ago, when grandma woke up on a rattan chair in the yard, she felt that a year had passed and the side room was also full of dust, but she cleaned it up immediately because she didn't know when Xia Xiao and Azhu would come back.

With that premise, the room was easier to clean. With Ah Zhu's return, she finally understood why she had the illusion that a year had passed. In fact, it was just a year, from spring to winter, but it was not short!

When Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu felt strange and walked back to the courtyard, they were pushed into this side room by the old people. The red candles and red silks were arranged in an orderly manner, which made them smile at each other.

"It seems like Grandma wants something to happen for us tonight."

After Xia Xiao said this, Ah Zhu's face turned even redder and she snorted:

"How dare you do that to me?"

Ah Zhu was standing in front of Xia Xiao. His delicate voice made him lick his lips. He leaned forward and whispered in his ear:

"This question is not even remotely accurate. You are my wife. Do you think I would dare to do it?"

Xia Xiao untied the thin belt around Ah Zhu's waist, which made the beautiful woman's bright eyes full of shyness. She collapsed in Xia Xiao's arms, and the red silk began to sway, never stopping for a long time under the spring light, making a creaking sound.

The red candle beside the bed was burning brightly, and the red silk was like blood, a few strands of it fell to the ground and clump together, like a small pool of blood, silently proving the purity and the intensity of their passion. But in the end, the red candle burned out its last flame, and the wax flowed everywhere.

In the gradually darkening room, Ah Zhu whispered shyly. Xia Xiao wanted to laugh, but held back and whispered comfortingly. Then, with a wave of his hand, the sticky discomfort disappeared. On the dry red mattress, Xia Xiao hugged Ah Zhu, like hugging a small stove.
