Chapter 768: What Else Can I Do if I Don’t Marry You?
Shanzi stood up and said, "You should rest for a while. I will bring you food later."
He quickly went out and drove the car to his house next door.
Shanzi's mother saw the car coming in, "I just said that I heard a sound that sounded like a car, but no one was there."
"By the way, where were you last night? Why didn't you come back?"
Shanzi didn't answer, just said: "I'm hungry."
"You kid, Dujuan is still in confinement, and he didn't even say he would come back to help. The kid made a fuss all night last night." Shanzi's mother rambled as she went into the kitchen and brought a basin of white rice porridge and a plate of pickles on the table in the living room. superior.
Shanzi sat down and ate voraciously. Seeing that the bowl of porridge was almost gone, he frowned, "Aren't there any pancakes?"
Shanzi's mother took two more cornmeal pancakes and put them on the table.
At this time, the child in the room started to cry. Shanzi said impatiently: "I just know how to cry. It's so annoying day and night."
Shanzi's mother said angrily: "This is not the case for a newborn child." She said and hurried into the house to see the child.
Shanzi finished the porridge in several mouthfuls, put the pancake in his arms, got up and went out.
Walking to the next door, Myolie was lying on the straw mat with her eyes closed, as if she was asleep.
Shanzi shouted softly: "Xing'er, Xing'er."
After a while, Xing'er slowly opened her eyes.
Shanzi took the pancake out of his arms and said softly: "I brought you pancakes. I'll feed you. Promise me not to shout."
Xing'er nodded vigorously.
Shanzi then opened the bellyband that blocked her mouth, broke off a piece of pancake and stuffed it into her mouth.
Xing'er chewed the pancake slowly, waiting for one pancake to be eaten. After gaining some strength, she whispered softly: "Brother Shanzi, when do you plan to go to my house to propose marriage."
Shanzi was startled, then his face showed ecstasy, "Xing'er, are you willing to marry me?"
Xing'er nodded slowly and turned her head as if she was shy, "I am yours now, who else can you marry if you don't marry me?"
"Don't worry, I've saved some money. If you don't have enough silver as a betrothal gift, I'll give it to you."
Shanzi was so happy that he picked up Xing'er and kissed her hard several times, "Xing'er, if I had known this, I would have - we wouldn't have to be separated for so long. Just wait, I will tell my mother right now , let her find someone to come to your house to propose marriage. "
Xing'er said angrily: "Can you come up with twenty taels now? Without twenty taels of silver, my mother would not agree."
The corner of Shanzi's mouth twitched. His family had only saved a few taels of silver, and there was no way he could get twenty taels.
Xing'er glared at him, "Why are you still tying me up? When I finish eating the cake, you can send me back to the inn to get the money."
Upon hearing this, Shanzi was about to untie Xing'er, but he hesitated and asked uncertainly: "Xing'er, are you really willing to marry me? Don't you blame me anymore?"
Xing'er suddenly became angry, "What do you mean, you, have you regretted it and don't want to marry me?"
"You are short of dowry money and I will give it to you. Now, you have done this to me. If you dare not marry me, I will die!"
Shan Zi hurriedly hugged her and coaxed: "I will marry you. How could I not marry you? I have always wanted to marry you in my dreams."
"I'll untie it for you right now."
Shanzi quickly untied the waistband of Xing'er's hands and feet.
Xing'er snorted, "Turn your back, I want to wear a bellyband."
Shanzi stared at her, "I couldn't see clearly last night. Show me again."
Xing'er's face was red and she was trembling all over, "You, please turn your back quickly."
She suddenly softened her tone and said, "In the future, when you come to see me, don't be in a hurry."
