Chapter 1177 Born a Dwarf
Tuoba Long nodded and asked: "Uncle, don't you take a look at the gift we gave you first?"
"You don't need to look at it. The things the Tuoba family gave you won't be any different. Besides, it doesn't matter whether the gift is expensive or not. What matters is the intention."
"Uncle Su, you understand what I mean."
"Hahaha, this is natural, otherwise I wouldn't trust my daughter to you."
Su Lei and Tuoba Long decided on this marriage with just one word from you and me, without any intention of asking Su Zhirou.
In the world of cultivation, it is still popular that parents order matchmakers, and there is no freedom in marriage. In fact, the larger the family, the less free the marriage. It is the same whether it is the world of cultivation or the secular world.
"Okay, now that you have sent the betrothal gift, the marriage has been decided for the time being. Rou'er, do you have any objections?"
The marriage was already decided, so Su Lei asked Su Zhirou symbolically.
Su Zhirou looked at Su Lei and said calmly: "Since it has been decided, why do you ask me for my opinion?"
Su Lei smiled and said: "If you say so, then you have no objection. In this case, Master Long..." At this point, Su Lei turned to look at Tuoba Long.
Tuoba Long smiled faintly and said: "Uncle, if you still call me Master Long at this time, it seems too unfamiliar. As an elder, you should just call me Tuoba Long."
"That's fine, Tuoba Long, since we're engaged, if you're okay, just stay at Su's house for a few more days. You and Rou'er need to have more contact and communication."
"That's natural. When I came this time, I wasn't in a hurry to go back. Anyway, the ancestor worship ceremony will take some time."
Tuoba Long smiled faintly.
After he finished speaking, Su Lei's whole body trembled violently. He even said with some excitement: "The Tuoba family...can participate in the ancestor worship ceremony?!"
Obviously, Su Lei knew about the ancestor worship ceremony.
Tuoba Long smiled and said, "I'm lucky to be able to go. Don't worry, uncle, since we are engaged, sister Zhirou and uncle may also be able to go."
"Is this...really?" Su Lei seemed a little unconvinced.
"Uncle, of course it's true." Tuoba Long grinned. He is good-looking, and his smile makes him even more lovable. I don’t know why Su Zhirou doesn’t like Tuoba Long.
At least judging from Tuoba Long's words and deeds, he is a very well-educated young man.
"Hahahaha, OK! OK!"
Su Lei suddenly laughed.
"I didn't expect that my Su family could wait until this day. Our blood is more or less flowing with that person's blood. I don't know if it can be activated by then. The ancestor worship ceremony is held once every ten years... I, Su Home has never been eligible to participate."
On the side, Zhang Yifeng's eyes lit up slightly. Is the ancestor worship ceremony a sacrifice to the ancestors of the supervisor's family? In other words, when the time comes, people from the supervisor’s immediate family will also go?
It seems that this Tuoba family is also a side force of the regulators.
If he can get involved in the ancestor worship ceremony, his understanding of the power of the regulators will definitely be deeper. In fact, if you can get to know someone from the supervisor's family, it will definitely be twice the result with half the effort.
It seems that joining the Su family is a very wise choice, but I don't know if, as a guard, he is qualified to participate in the ancestor worship meeting.
But, regardless of whether he was qualified to go or not, he had to go.
Zhang Yifeng really wanted to go back to Lingyue Continent. He wanted to know what year it was in Lingyue Continent, how his master was doing, and whether the sect was still there?
He even wanted to know who planned to ambush him!
Zhang Yifeng's character has always been one of revenge and kindness. Someone once successfully took his life. This hatred was bigger than the sky. He couldn't take revenge!
"Uncle, don't worry. Since I said you can go, you can definitely go. Aren't we already engaged? We are all a family." Tuoba Long's voice came again.
Su Lei laughed loudly and said: "Yes, we are a family now. Well, you have come a long way, so you should rest first. Your room will be arranged in the west wing, in the same courtyard as Rou'er, so that you can increase your relationship. Once the relationship between you has improved, you can officially get married."
"Then I'd like to thank uncle."
"Thank you, Rou'er. Please lead Tuoba Long personally." Su Lei looked at Su Zhirou.
Su Zhirou nodded, glanced at Tuoba Long, and said calmly: "Come with me."
Tuoba Long then stood up and said very politely: "Sister Zhirou is here for you."
After Tuoba Long stood up, Zhang Yifeng and Qi Jiaruo on the side were very surprised, as if they couldn't believe their eyes.
Because the height difference between Tuoba Long standing up and Tuoba Long sitting down is not much different.
Tuoba Long's head had just reached Su Zhirou's chest.
Tuoba Long was born with good looks and a good background, but he was actually born with dwarfism. His height is probably only about 1.3 meters.
You know, this is the world of cultivation, and most people in the world of cultivation are tall. Even among women, there are few who are less than 1.6 meters tall. But Tuoba Long is only about 1.3 meters tall.
At this moment, Zhang Yifeng finally understood why Su Zhirou was no longer interested in Tuoba Long.
Tuoba Long, what a domineering name, he himself is also born like a jade tree facing the wind, and has a graceful demeanor. However, he is a patient born with dwarfism.
One shortcoming will destroy everything.
Fortunately, Tuoba Long was born in a big family. If he had been born into an ordinary family, or even into the secular world, he would have been mediocre throughout his life and would not even be able to find a woman.
This world is so realistic.
Some people with birth defects always have a life ten or a hundred times harder than ordinary people!
No matter which world people live in, they always look at people through colored glasses. Because people always like relatively perfect things.
To give a simple example, if Zhang Yifeng was a dwarf, would Meng Nichang and the others still follow him? The answer is probably, no.
People all like beautiful things. This is human nature.
What is inner beauty and what is important is your heart? The premise of these words is: you have to be a normal person and you have to be able to see through it.
Otherwise, others won’t even have access to your inner thoughts and desires.
Otherwise, there would be no such words in this world: You are a good person, but it is a pity that we are not suitable.
If a person with flaws wants to succeed and win a beautiful woman, he must be mentally strong and constantly strive for self-improvement!
Therefore, Zhang Yifeng still admires Tuoba Long. His mannerisms, his confidence, are not constrained by his limited height.
Of course, this also has something to do with his family.
It's not terrible that a person has flaws. What's terrible is that he has flaws and no background, but he still doesn't work hard! It is strange that someone would appreciate and like such a person.
But, on the contrary, even if a person has flaws, as long as he works hard, he can still fight back.
Because when a person has money and status, the so-called flaws can be deliberately ignored. Even if you are short, lame, blind or deaf, there will be no shortage of people willing to take care of you and marry you.
Therefore, no matter what kind of person you are, you must keep improving yourself!
