Chapter 105 Chapter 105 Let go of personal qualities and enjoy the lack of...
Fortunately, the people in the village did not know Fu Lingyou. Even if they knew the name of Young Master Fu, they would not be able to match him with the real person.
Seeing that he came to the Huo family to propose marriage, all those who came to the door to watch the excitement were now beaming with joy. They had never seen such a large amount of money before, and the betrothal gifts almost filled up the entire yard.
Miao Ying was still afraid that the villagers would find out, so he closed the door to the yard and said, "Everyone, please stop watching the fun."
"Let's see what's going on," said a village auntie, her face filled with anticipation for the fun. "This is a happy event, let's share in the joy. Don't be so stingy."
"I'm sorry for Lingzhi. If I have a wedding in the future, I will definitely invite the whole village." Miao Ying said as he closed the yard door, blocking the villagers from watching the fun.
Everyone in the yard looked at each other in bewilderment. Grandmother and Mother were so shocked they were speechless. Li Hongying looked around, then walked over to Miao Ying and whispered, "What should we do now?"
Miao Ying looked at the people in the yard and said, "Let them talk to each other."
After saying that, he walked over to Lingzhi and patted her on the shoulder: "You two can have a good chat first. Call us if you need anything."
Miao Ying didn't go back to their room with Huo Xing, but went to their room with Li Hongying and the others. As soon as they entered the room, Li Hongying took Miao Ying's hand, her face full of anxiety: "Xiao Ying, they are brothers, how can brothers get married?"
"Mom, they're not real brothers." Miao Ying pulled Li Hongying to sit down, "Let's see what they have to say."
"It won't work if they're not brothers." Li Hongying looked outside worriedly. "Everyone knows they're brothers. How can they get married? How will Lingzhi live his life in the future?"
Miao Ying sighed: "Since he dares to propose marriage so blatantly, he must have a solution. Let's wait and see what he says."
Outside the door, Lingzhi looked at the red all over the ground and walked up to Fu Lingyou: "Brother, are you crazy?"
"Didn't you say that if you want to get married, you have to be of equal status and have the intention to get married?" Fu Lingyou looked at him with seriousness in his eyes, "So I came."
"Is that the problem?" Lingzhi grabbed his shoulders and tried to shake him awake. "Do you know what you're doing? Have you ever thought about your family? How are you going to explain this to your parents? How will you be a role model for your two younger brothers?"
Fu Lingyou pressed his shoulders and held him in his arms: "I've already taken care of everything. I've already confessed everything to my parents, and the children in the family also know about it. No one objects."
"How is that possible!" Lingzhi pushed Fu Lingyou away. He had been working a lot recently and his strength had increased a lot. "I have always known their expectations of you. You don't have the final say on your marriage."
"I don't have the final say?" Fu Lingyou was amused by his anger. "Ever since our family split up, I've been planning this. If you don't want to return to the Fu family as their son, then go back as their daughter-in-law."
"Why should I go back?" Lingzhi said loudly, "I've said goodbye to that place. My last name is no longer Fu, it's Xia now!"
Fu Lingyou hugged him tightly, as if he wanted to melt him into his bones and blood: "Why don't you believe me?"
Lingzhi gave up struggling and just let him hold her numbly.
Fu Lingyou loosened his grip a little, took something out of his arms, took Lingzhi's hand and placed it in his palm: "Do you remember what this is?"
Lingzhi looked at the heart-shaped pendant in his hand. Of course he knew what it was. It was a jade pendant passed down from the Fu family and was to be given to Fu Lingyou's future wife.
"If my parents didn't accept it, why would they give this to me?" Fu Lingyou looked into his eyes. "Didn't you say that big brother could do anything? Why don't you believe me now?"
Lingzhi thought that Fu Lingyou had not appeared since he had really no relationship with the Fu family, and a lot of things must have happened in the meantime.
He grabbed Fu Lingyou's hand: "What did you do?" Having lived together for more than ten years, how could he not know what kind of people Fu's parents were? It was impossible for Fu Lingyou to snatch this heart-shaped pendant so easily.
Fu Lingyou just looked at him: "Are you willing to talk to me properly now?"
It doesn't matter what he did or what conditions he agreed to from the Fu family. What matters is that from now on he will no longer be coerced by the Fu family and he will get everything he wants.
"After you get married, you don't have to go back to the Fu family. You can stay here if you want. In a few years, I can take you to the south. Don't you want to go?" Fu Lingyou held his face, "Lingzhi, things are far less pessimistic than you think."
Lingzhi didn't know how to react. He was like a puppet, looking at his big brother in front of him, not knowing what to do.
"I can't promise you right now." Lingzhi took a step back and placed the Heart Pendant into Fu Lingyou's palm. "I don't dare."
"Okay." Fu Lingyou touched his head, "Lifelong events require careful consideration. If you are willing, come home with me."
Lingzhi immediately shook his head: "I'm not ready yet."
Fu Lingyou sighed almost inaudibly: "Okay, then you should have a good New Year, and we can talk about this matter after the New Year."
Realizing that their conversation was almost over, Miao Ying and the others pushed open the door. Fu Lingyou greeted the two elders and explained their purpose. The two elders didn't know what to say, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
Miao Ying mediated and asked Fu Lingyou if he wanted to stay for dinner. Fu Lingyou shook his head and told Miao Ying to take good care of Lingzhi and he would come again after the New Year.
Fu Lingyou was sent out by Huo Xing. Miao Ying pulled Lingzhi into the room and told Li Hongying not to move the boxes. He asked Huo Xing to come back and move them so as not to hurt his waist.
"What did he say?" Miao Ying held Lingzhi's hand. "Why did you suddenly propose marriage? Have the problems at home been resolved?"
Lingzhi was a little sad at first, but after hearing Miao Ying's questions, she smiled helplessly: "He said that Fu's parents have agreed. I don't know what he did to make them agree."
The Fu family is businessmen after all, and since it concerns the marriage of their eldest son, they will not give in easily, so he doesn't know what Fu Lingyou has promised them.
"So what do you think?" Miao Ying rubbed his aching waist. "If you like it, then agree. Don't care about other people's opinions. It's your life to live. Don't think about anything else."
Lingzhi curled her lips and looked at him: "That's so simple."
Miao Ying ruffled his hair and said, "Do you know what my reputation was before? If you had heard rumors before getting to know me, you definitely wouldn't have played with me."
"How could that be." Lingzhi said, "You are such a nice person."
Miao Ying pointed outside and said, "Go to Brother Nankouba Village and ask me my name, Miao Ying. If you don't look like a black-faced yaksha, I'll take your surname."
Ling Zhi was coaxed into submission by him and said, "Let me think about it again. I'm actually a little hesitant to confront my family. We clearly agreed that we would have nothing to do with each other anymore, and now he's like this..."
"Let go of personal qualities and enjoy a life of vice." Miao Ying brought out the rules of modern life. "If you like it, you should get it. Why bother with others?"
After Miao Ying finished speaking, he felt his stomach move again. He touched his stomach and said, "Look, the child thinks so too."
Lingzhi couldn't make up his mind for a moment, and wanted to be as casual and brave as Miao Ying, so he also put his hand on Miao Ying's belly: "Baby, if you think I can be as casual and free as your daddy, then move."
As soon as he finished speaking, his palm moved slightly. Although the child was still young and the movements were not large, he could clearly feel the child moving.
"See, the kids also told you to be brave." Miao Ying patted his hands, "Think about it again."
After saying that, Miao Ying remembered something. He asked Lingzhi to wait for him for a while, and then ran to his room in a hurry, scaring Lingzhi so much that she shouted at him to slow down.
Miao Ying ran to their room and found the deed for buying the shop. He held this thin piece of paper, hoping that it could become Lingzhi's confidence.
"I was planning to give it to you during the Chinese New Year." Miao Ying curled her lips, "It's all your brother's fault. He made me take out the surprise early."
Lingzhi looked at the contract in his hand, somewhat incredulous: "What is this?"
"Remember what I told you before." Miao Ying also leaned over to look at him, "I bought this shop for you, so you don't have to run back and forth so hard every day. No matter who you marry, this is yours."
Ling Shangzhi came forward and hugged him, tears falling down without holding back: "Thank you."
"We are all family, what are you talking about?" Miao Ying patted his back, "Don't you consider us family?"
Lingzhi never thought that she would be treated so sincerely by him just because she helped him a little in the past. Miao Ying is really the best person in the world.
During the meal, Li Hongying and her grandmother looked at Lingzhi hesitantly, perhaps because they had been with Miao Ying for too long, and now even some of their expressions were exactly the same as his.
"I'm going to give it a try."
Xiaolin grabbed him with his hand under the table: "Brother."
"You young people should make your own decisions." Li Hongying picked up some food for him. "Home will always be here, so don't be afraid."
Lingzhi nodded with tears in her eyes: "I understand."
"Silly child, why are you crying?" Grandma also said, "Getting married is a happy event. How can you cry like this before the wedding day?"
"I'm just happy." Lingzhi wiped away her tears, "Thank you everyone."
"If you need anything, just tell me. We're not that poor anymore. Although we can't compare to the Fu family, we're still a little bit more confident," Li Hongying said. "We're all behind you."
Miao Ying was concentrating on eating, and waited until they finished talking before saying, "You make it sound like Lingzhi is going to the battlefield. It's obviously a good thing to get married."
Their family had never dealt with rich people, so this naturally put them in a lower position.
"Oh, and it was their family that begged our Lingzhi to marry into their family, not us who were eagerly trying to marry into their family." Miao Ying sat up straight, "We should be more polite."
He reached out and patted Xiaolin, who was sitting next to him: "Stand up straight!"
