Bai Feng thought hard. If he remembered correctly, Uncle Yun's daughter was called Yun Yueyao. But he was sure that he had never met Yun Yueyao since he was born.
First, after he obtained the villain system, except for the time when he went out to check the number of sons of luck, he has always avoided traveling far. Second, Uncle Yun’s wife was injured during pregnancy, which caused Uncle Yun’s daughter to be in poor health and was forced to stay at home and not travel far.
So, where did this engagement come from?
While thinking, Bai Feng couldn't help but turn his attention to his father. This matter was most likely caused by his unreliable father.
"So, Dad, what's going on with this engagement?"
Bai Tianyou's expression became more and more embarrassed. Finally, he sighed and patted his head in regret: "It was all caused by drinking. You were just born at that time, and your uncle Yun's wife was pregnant, so we proposed to arrange a baby marriage while we were drinking."
"Then why didn't you tell me?"
"I... drank too much, and forgot everything when I woke up the next day." Bai Tianyou scratched his head hard, as if blaming himself for forgetting such an important thing.
Bai Feng: “…”
Damn, how come he has such an unreliable father!
"Dad, you are the one who caused this, so you should go and solve it."
Bai Feng picked up the bowl and continued eating. Not to mention whether he wanted to get engaged to someone he had never met, there were so many lucky guys in this world and he was a villain. When he met his fiancée, there might be a young boy who would jump out to object.
Bai Tianyou gritted his teeth and held up three fingers: "Three times the pocket money."
Bai Feng shook his head: "No, I'm not short of money, but I don't have anywhere to spend my money now."
"Then what do you want?" Bai Tianyou sighed in his heart. It seemed that he was going to bleed heavily.
In the past few years, he always felt that he had not handled the relationships within the family well, which led to the breakdown of the family. In addition, Bai Feng was a very obedient child, so he always felt that he owed his son Bai Feng. Otherwise, he would have slapped him and dragged his son to meet him.
Although Bai Feng really didn't want to have anything to do with his fiancée, this incident happened after all, and he was also worried that his father wouldn't be able to handle it well, so he nodded and said, "Dad, I want to learn the formation."
"Have you mastered the talismans? Are you thinking of learning the formation?"
Bai Tianyou frowned slightly. If Bai Feng wanted some precious spiritual weapon or something like that, he would definitely agree immediately. However, he still had to be careful about things that would obviously affect Bai Feng's future.
"I feel like I'm quite talented in formations." Bai Feng didn't intend to give up. He had to find a way to whitewash his identity as a master of formations.
Bai Tianyou heard Bai Feng say this and said nothing more: "Forget it, I will arrange the formation, but if you don't have any talent, give up as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Dad."
Bai Feng immediately laughed. From now on, he would not need to find excuses to set up a formation for his own house.
"Okay, now hurry up and come with me to meet your Uncle Yun, and remember to be polite."
"Okay." Bai Feng put down the bowl and glanced at Bai Yumo, who had been keeping her head down and not talking or eating. "Yumo? Do you want to come with us?"
Bai Yumo suddenly raised her head, her face a little confused, it took her a few seconds to react, then she nodded quickly: "Okay."
"Okay, let's go!"
At Bai Tianyou's urging, the two of them walked quickly towards the reception room.
…
Reception room.
Bai Feng immediately saw a kind-looking middle-aged man sitting on a chair. The moment he walked in, he couldn't wait to stand up from the chair and walked over with a smile on his face:
"Xiao Feng, do you still remember your Uncle Yun? Oh, Yu Mo is here too! You've grown so big after not seeing you for a few years!"
"...You were drinking with my dad last month, how could you not remember it?" Bai Feng's mouth twitched slightly.
"Haha, look at my memory." Uncle Yun was not embarrassed. He reached out and touched the stubble on his chin. "I think your father has already told you the reason why I came here today. I was originally planning to find a good day to get engaged, but your father insisted on asking for your opinion. Could it be that the old man forgot about this matter? Hahaha!"
He wanted to make a joke, but he found that Bai Feng's expression was a little unnatural, and even Bai Tianyou next to him looked a little embarrassed.
Suddenly he narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Bai Tianyou: "You didn't really forget it, did you?"
"Well, you know, I tend to forget things when I drink too much. Who told you not to mention it in the past few years? Otherwise, how could I have forgotten it for so long?"
When Bai Tianyou was discovered, he was no longer embarrassed, but responded with confidence.
"It's because my daughter is not in good health..." Uncle Yun finally waved his hand, "Forget it, I knew you are unreliable."
Then he straightened his expression and said, "Actually, I didn't want to mention this matter before. After all, my daughter is in poor health and has not been able to practice. I can't harm you, Brother Bai. But recently my daughter has had some adventures, and her physical deficiencies have been made up. Now she is in the late stage of Qi Refining. This is why I came to you to renew the engagement."
"That's a really good thing!"
Bai Tianyou also knew that Yun Yueyao had always been a thorn in Brother Yun's side. Now that the thorn has been removed, he was also happy for Brother Yun.
But Bai Feng on the side had a slightly solemn expression - his body was damaged and he couldn't practice, but now he encountered a fortuitous encounter and set foot on the path of cultivation again. This template is so familiar!
He was 100%, or even 90% sure that his fiancée was the child of fortune. Even if she was not, then she should have a lot to do with being the child of fortune.
No, this engagement must not happen!
But he couldn't cancel the engagement directly, otherwise he would be giving the opponent's Son of Fortune a break-up buff.
Thinking of this, he suddenly had an idea in his mind: "Uncle Yun, can I say a few words about the engagement?"
Uncle Yun stroked his stubble with a smile and said, "Xiao Feng, that's what you said."
"Uncle Yun, you also know that my reputation is not very good. I am afraid that it will affect Yun Yueyao, so I think it is better to take a long-term view on matters such as engagement."
Uncle Yun immediately waved his hands: "Hey, others may not know, but how can I, Uncle Yun, not know what kind of person you are? You don't have to worry about this."
Bai Feng had already anticipated Uncle Yun's answer. He asked this question only to pave the way for subsequent questions and to choose a good insertion point.
So he continued:
"Also, Yun Yueyao has just started practicing, so it would be a bit too hasty to get engaged right away. And for something as important as marriage, it would be better to ask for the opinions of both of them."
"Well, Xiao Feng, what you said makes sense." Uncle Yun nodded, but he didn't intend to give up just like that, "So I came here just to ask about the engagement, the wedding can just be put on the back burner!"
Bai Feng looked up at Uncle Yun with some hesitation. Then he took a deep breath and mustered up his courage to continue:
"Also, because of some things I've been through before, I think that marriage is better when both parties are in love. I can't agree to marry someone I've never met, don't have any emotional foundation with, and don't know if the other party is willing."
Uncle Yun frowned immediately. He could naturally see that Bai Feng was not very willing, but he couldn't say anything.
Because he knew what Bai Feng was referring to, it was not surprising that Bai Feng would have such an idea.
He also heard Bai Tianyou complain that since the bone digging incident, Bai Feng had moved to a remote courtyard by himself and no one knew what he was doing all day.
He sighed, slowly relaxed his brows, and nodded gently: "I was too hasty about this matter. Let's put it this way, I will let Yueyao meet you another day, and we can talk about the engagement later."
Bai Feng heaved a sigh of relief immediately. He decided to just get the engagement matter over with first.
As for the meeting, I’ll see if I can find an excuse to avoid it then.
