Jiu Ye leaned over to see Fu Tong'er, who was already holding back tears. So, he took the chopsticks from her hand, took the handkerchief Xiao Pu handed her, and wiped her tears. Putting the handkerchief down, he placed his hands on her shoulders and asked, "Why are you crying...? Is your dream shattered? Or are you afraid that I will die?"
Fu Tong'er turned around and hugged Jiu Ye. She sobbed silently and said nothing.
Military Advisor Xu said: "I'm afraid it's both..." The elongated ending tone hit Fu Tong'er's heart. She couldn't help but hug Jiu Ye tighter, and her tears flowed even heavier.
Xiao Pu said, "Let's go out. It's late at night. Master Jiu and Miss Fu must be resting too."
"Let's go," Military Advisor Xu stood up. "Master Jiu, I would like to propose that Miss Fu is so determined to marry her brother Lu Jin. Why don't you grant her wish and get married right here on the spot? That would be so nice."
General You Yi glanced at Fu Tong'er, stood up, and said, "What's the rush? Tongtong wants to get married, and Master Jiu must follow the ancestral rules and regulations and go to Tongtong's motherland to ask for her hand in marriage, and the betrothal gifts must be provided. How can we get married right here? It's so shameful!"
Xiao Pu stood at the cabin door and said with a smile: "General You really looks like Miss Fu's elder brother."
You Yi walked over and said, "She calls me Big Brother, so I am her Big Brother. I am You Yi's sister, and we can't marry rashly!"
Jiu Ye hugged Fu Tong'er, feeling her soft arms tightening around him. He agreed with You Yi's words. He couldn't let Fu Tong'er marry him like this.
After the three of them left, only Master Jiu and Fu Tong'er, whom he held tightly in his arms, were left in the narrow cabin.
The man lowered his head gently, looking into her eyes, and said, "I'll go move the table. It's getting late, Tong'er should rest."
Fu Tong'er finally let go of her hand and saw the man stepping on the wooden stepping stone, picking up all the food on the table and putting it into the lunch box. He then moved the table aside and came over. Just as he was about to undress, Fu Tong'er got off the bed.
"I'm here to undress Brother Lu Jin... This is, is, my business."
Jiu Ye smiled faintly and opened his arms quietly: "Okay."
Fu Tong'er walked over and looked at the area in front of the man that was wet with her tears. She reached out and stroked it, then stood on tiptoe and got closer to the man's face.
"Aren't you going to help me undress? Why are you staring at me again?"
Fu Tong'er supported herself on the man's chest, climbed up his neck, and finally said: "You, you... lower yourself a little."
Jiu Ye listened to this almost coquettish tone, and his mind echoed the words "Brother Lu Jin, Tong'er will marry you". He simply couldn't forget it! Her despair! The despair she felt when facing his death was deeply imprinted in his mind!
So I bowed my head - and tried my best to agree to her request, and to satisfy all her little thoughts as much as possible!
Fu Tong'er smiled softly, barely able to place a kiss on the man's lips. She smiled shyly and contentedly at Jiu Ye, then quickly lowered her head. Today, she took the initiative.
"Sorry, I got Jiu Ye's clothes wet~"
"Kiss me again, and I'll forgive you."
He didn't blame her. How could he bear to blame a little girl who kept saying, "Brother Lujin, Tong'er is here to marry you?" The moment he saw her jump into the river, he completely understood that this little girl was his fate.
Fu Tong'er smiled shyly and whispered, "I'll let Brother Lu Jin kiss me enough later~"
Jiu Ye lowered his eyes to the shy little girl and said gently, "Oh, well. That girl, help me undress."
Tonight, Master Jiu was wearing a large fox fur cloak with a dark jade purple cattail pattern. Fu Tong'er stood on tiptoe and took the cloak off the man, revealing a dark blue robe with wide sleeves and a python pattern. Fu Tong'er blushed, stood on tiptoe, and raised her hand to unbutton the man's lapel, but was suddenly grabbed by Master Jiu's hand.
