Ye Xiaoqian casually flicked her bangs, her eyes sparkling.
"Of course, it's about one person for life, mutual love, and growing old together."
She paused for a moment, then continued.
"A marriage without love is like a fish out of water; it won't last."
Ye Xiaoqian has a baby face and looks no more than eighteen or nineteen. When she speaks, she speaks in a mature and old-fashioned way, like a little old lady, which makes Yuan Doudou cover her mouth and laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Ye Xiaoqian asked, annoyed and embarrassed.
What does a little kid like her know? So what if she's married and has a son? She's still younger than me, just an ignorant little sister.
Having roamed the world for over a decade, she has met more people than she has eaten rice.
He understands principles far better than she does, by a factor of dozens of times.
"I think you're very optimistic, cheerful, and a bit of a tomboy." She was happy to be friends with Ye Xiaoqian.
"Tomboy? I may not be a stunning beauty, but I'm still quite pretty. You don't have to insult me like that." Ye Xiaoqian frowned, pouting, her displeasure written all over her face.
It's infuriating that a little kid would call me a tomboy.
"That's not what I meant. I just think you live a very carefree life, and I envy you." Her eyes lowered, as if she had thought of something. "Can we be friends?"
She had made many friends before, but had never met anyone from the underworld.
She thought it would be cool.
"Of course I can. I, Ye Xiaoqian, have been traveling the world for over ten years and have never lacked friends, nor have I ever thought I had too many friends." Ye Xiaoqian tossed his smooth ponytail. "At home, you rely on your master; when you're out in the world, you rely on your friends. This is what my master repeatedly told me before I left the mountain."
After Ye Xiaoqian finished speaking, she grasped Yuan Doudou's shoulders with both hands and looked at her with bright eyes.
"You are the most beautiful of my friends, and I am so proud of it." When she returns to the mountain, she will definitely show off how she made the most beautiful woman in the world as her friend.
Her androgynous face was right in front of Yuan Doudou, and her sweet scent wafted over, making Yuan Doudou blush more brightly than a ripe tomato.
"Speak properly, it's too hot." Yuan Doudou gently pushed Ye Xiaoqian away, took a deep breath of fresh air, and fanned her face with her hand to cool it down.
What's going on, Yuan Doudou? You have a handsome husband at home, how can you blush and get excited about a tomboy?
That's so embarrassing.
"Why are you blushing?" Ye Xiaoqian didn't listen at all and moved her face even closer.
"I told you, it's too hot." Yuan Doudou quickened her pace, wanting to get away from her.
Women can be more skilled at flirting than men.
Having been single for 22 years and never been flirted with, blushing a little doesn't seem shameful.
"Is it hot? I think it's quite cool." She has been traveling around for more than ten years and has passed through many places. This summer is considered quite cool.
Before they knew it, the two had arrived at their doorstep.
Yuan Doudou was puzzled when she saw the courtyard gate wide open, as she had clearly closed it when she left.
"Anrong, now that you're back, shouldn't you keep an eye on your good wife?" Zhuang Shuhui stood at the door of the main room, gesturing wildly and exaggerating Yuan Doudou's story.
"Second Aunt, whether what you said is true or not, I will ask Dou Dou when she comes back. If you have nothing else to do, you can go back first." An Rong stood opposite, leaning on the table. He had never liked this second aunt.
Now that he's back, his second aunt rushed over, describing Yuan Doudou as more terrifying than a flood or a ferocious beast, implying that An Rong should divorce her.
"Don't be foolish. Keeping a woman like that around will only bring trouble to the family. If it weren't for her, your mother wouldn't have died." Zhuang Shuhui became more and more smug as she spoke.
"Enough!" An Rong shouted. "Second Aunt, please have some self-respect."
Taking advantage of being an elder, they arbitrarily smear others.
"You, you're just too soft-hearted. That little vixen Yuan Doudou must have tricked you." Zhuang Shuhui lowered her voice, pretending to be very concerned about him.
"You'll regret it if you don't listen to the elders." Zhuang Shuhui gritted her teeth with hatred when she thought of the suffering she had endured. "While you were gone, she was always flirting with the eldest son of the Wang family. I'm not making this up; everyone in the village knows it."
"Second Aunt!" An Rong clenched her fists, a chill creeping into her eyes.
Zhuang Shuhui shivered from the cold. This person looked like he came from the underworld, so eerie.
"Fine, I'm leaving. You think about it carefully." Like a dog biting Lü Dongbin, not recognizing a kind heart.
Zhuang Shuhui turned around angrily, but when she saw Yuan Doudou at the door, she was so frightened that she backed away.
"Dou Dou is back? She didn't say a word when she got here, she scared me half to death." Zhuang Shuhui said, acting like an old woman, but her eyes betrayed her guilty conscience.
Yuan Doudou was so angry she wanted to laugh. What a coward, all he does is talk badly about people behind their backs.
She's not a magnanimous person; she won't let her off easily.
"Second Aunt, did you come to see my husband?" She smiled and looked at Zhuang Shuhui's hand. "Second Aunt, you care so much about my husband, you didn't come empty-handed, did you?"
Zhuang Shuhui's face turned as purple as an eggplant; she had come empty-handed.
Who cares about this useless nephew? He served in the army for three years and is nothing.
"Auntie came in a hurry and didn't have time to take it. Next time." After saying that, she tried to slip away.
Just as she passed by Yuan Doudou, she heard: "I only call you Second Aunt because of my husband. You know what good things you've done. If you come to my house again to stir up trouble, I will explain everything to my husband in detail."
People need face, trees need bark, and Zhuang Shuhui is probably the kind of person who has no shame.
Zhuang Shuhui felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing her cold, icy voice.
"How could that be, Auntie? You've misunderstood me." She lowered her head guiltily.
Yuan Doudou snorted coldly: "It's best if there isn't one."
Zhuang Shuhui slunk away when suddenly she tripped over something and fell flat on her face.
"Oh, Auntie, it's our first meeting, there's no need for such a grand gesture. I can't accept it."
Ye Xiaoqian crossed her arms and looked at Zhuang Shuhui as if she were a monkey.
Zhuang Shuhui was so angry that she trembled all over. It took her a long time to get up. She had never seen Ye Xiaoqian before and thought that Yuan Doudou had sent her to deal with her.
"What are you? You think you're worthy of my bowing to you? Don't think that just because you've hooked up with Yuan Doudou, I'll let you off the hook." Enraged, Zhuang Shuhui reached out to tear Ye Xiaoqian apart.
"Auntie, calm down." Ye Xiaoqian pretended to be weak.
Zhuang Shuhui was smug, thinking that she was afraid of her, and became even more smug.
"I'll calm down once I tear your mouth apart."
Seeing her ferocious expression, Ye Xiaoqian sneered, "You're courting death."
Before she could see what was happening, Zhuang Shuhui knelt down again.
The sound of bones breaking could be heard. In an instant, Zhuang Shuhui curled up on the ground in pain, sweating profusely.
"You overestimate yourself. You think you're so great just because I call you 'Auntie'?" Ye Xiaoqian squatted down, her eyes piercing Zhuang Shuhui like ice. "Listen, Dou Dou is my friend. If you bully her, you're bullying me, and I'm the kind of person who always gets revenge."
