Li Qian is clever at stuttering, and she’s been getting along well with Ma Zhang since she came to the Dongfang family.” Mrs Zhang had been on Lin Qiuhua’s side before, but now she was on hers again. Li Qian arrived upstairs feeling worried and uneasy. She listened to her mother and said, “Mom, don’t congratulate me yet. Now I don’t know what they think. Firstly, he had a deep love with Miss Lin, and secondly, they had made a name for themselves. Even if you don’t dislike me, it’s hard to say. ” Li Qian lowered her head in worry.
Mrs Zhang smiled. “Don’t worry Miss, you don’t know our Young Master.” He was the most filial to his father. Always obedient. Wasn’t it for your marriage that the old man wished for his son to come back? Now that your two uncles are here, what can the young master do if he doesn’t agree to this marriage? Now that Lady Lin has been taken away by your brother, even if they were married, it would be hard to take her back by sprinkling water. Don’t worry about it, girl. Your marriage will be successful. ”
When Li Qian heard it, he said, “Mother, you should know that the forced fruit is not sweet. If he doesn’t like me from the bottom of his heart, there’s no point in getting married. ”
Mrs Zhang said, “Lady, you have too many thoughts. It’s good to be a silly woman. Let’s see if you can coax him in the future. ”
Li Qian said: “I will coax more, my heart is not with you.”
Mrs Zhang laughed. “You are not a bad girl. You are not worthy of him.” I’ll teach you how. ” He said, “Listen to me. Go and cook.” Li Qian smiled reassuringly, put on his apron and went to prepare lunch with Zhang Ma.
At this time, Dongfang Liang said to Yinjie, “Recently, there have been many happy events occurring at our house. His long-lost relatives had come to look for him. The three of us have reunited. Your father has been looking forward to your return for some time now. ”
Dongfang Liang stopped and felt that there were some things that should not be said. Yijie knew what his father was going to say, so he listened quietly. Seeing that the two of them were extremely compatible, Li Huayi was very happy in his heart. Li Zhanyi had been feeling uneasy all this time, there was no smile on his face, and he said in his heart: “I want to see how you’re going to persuade your son today. I rushed here in a hurry, hoping to see this scene. ”
Dongfang Liang thought for a while before replying, “There is something that I, your father, have never told you. On the day of your birth, the full moon, I arranged a marriage for you. You saw the girl just now. She is the niece of your two uncles, her name is Li Qian. This girl is the same age as you, and has a proper character, so there is no need to elaborate. Just her father and me. We used to share honor and disgrace with each other from day to night. The two of us have a shared history of misery. Because we all joined the Boxer Regiment and offended the Qing government, the government chased after us. That year, our two families lived in seclusion in the Yanming Temple in Henan Province. The Manchu troops surrounded the monastery and captured us, ready to kill us. At that time, I carried you on my back, your mother, Li Qian’s parents, and your Uncle Gao Lian as well. Those people died in the battle with the Manchu troops to protect you. That huge disaster caused our two families to run for our lives. In a blink of an eye for more than ten years, I don’t know how many tears, miss my good brother. I didn’t think our families would ever meet again. It is only right for us to deepen our friendship with Li Family instead of getting along with them. Li Qian and his brother Li Yan managed to survive, and now they are together with us. This is the beauty of the heavens, the achievement of your marriage. You and Li Qian are born with this fate. Today, you are both a perfect match, a match made in heaven and in earth. I am very happy. ”
When Yijie heard this, all sorts of feelings welled up in his heart, and he fell silent for a while. Dongfang Liang saw that he did not object, and said: “Li Qian is smart and virtuous. Ever since I came here, he has been taking care of my family, taking good care of me. I am extremely happy to have such a good daughter-in-law. ”
He then took out the two marriage papers and said to one of them, “These were written when you were betrothed, and were personally written by your Uncle Gao years ago. Now your Uncle Gao is gone. When he heard that you and Li Qian were married, he would definitely be happy as well. ” Dongfang Liang missed his old friend and lowered his head due to his heavy heart.
Yijie took the marriage contract to see the end of crying, said: “Life is love, not falling in love is love. Father: I’m sorry. I’ve been a burden to these people since I was a kid, and they died for me. I can’t return it in this life. Now I don’t know what I’m supposed to do. Let me repay these people with my life. “Only in this way can I not feel happy in my heart.”
Dongfang Liang was shocked: “What are you saying! Did I tell you these things to make you pay? ” One of them said, “Father, stop talking. Let your son speak his mind. ” Dongfang Liang said: “If you have something to say, then say it, don’t act in such a reckless manner.”
“Miss Lin and I are childhood sweethearts, our relationship is deep to the point that we are inseparable. Who cares? Who could understand this? The two of us strolling leisurely pledged our love to each other. Don’t these feelings count? I can’t divorce her and marry someone else. Now I have to pay it off myself, and I don’t owe anyone anything. ” Dongfang Liang was angry and unable to blame him.
“If you don’t want me to die, then return the marriage contract to Li Family as soon as possible. No matter how good Li Qian is, even if I owe Li Family a lot, my thoughts and feelings aren’t suitable for the two of them. Li Qian and I can be siblings, but we can’t be husband and wife. Apart from me, she could have made a good marriage again. I will never be an unfaithful lover, and I want to marry the Miss Lin as my wife. ”
Dongfang Liang held back his anger and said, “I know that you and Miss Lin have a deep relationship, and I understand that as well. Not bad, you two are a match made in heaven. But there’s something else here that you don’t know. Since you left this time, the Lin Family has had a series of unfortunate events. The Pirate Zhu used her power to bully others, repeatedly coming to the Lin Family to force marriage, wanting to forcefully marry the Miss Lin. He even captured Miss Lin’s father as a threat. In a moment of desperation, your Uncle Lin and your Aunt Lin retreated, changed their minds, and were willing to marry their daughter to Li Yan. That day, Li Yan had taken their daughter out of Chaozhou and returned to Beijing. Right now, the Miss Lin and Li Yan had already married, and it was as if their marriage had already been completed. It’s impossible for you to marry her again. You marrying Li Qian is not because you owe it to Miss Lin; it is because you are not destined to be married to Miss Lin. When you next met Miss Lin, she was already your sister-in-law. It’s your fault you came back too late. If you had been at home, you probably wouldn’t have done that. ” His meaning was that it would be useless even if you thought about the Miss Lin.
When Yijie heard this, he immediately looked like a completely different person. He stared blankly with two young deities in his eyes. He said in his heart: “Qiu Hua! Sigh! Your heart is too good. I see. It wasn’t your intention. You were forced. It’s a pity that you didn’t wait for me to come back for such a major event! “With this result, you’ll be in for a lot of trouble in the future.”
Seeing that Yi Jie had remained silent, Dongfang Liang continued, “The purpose of our marriage with Li Family was to deepen the friendship between our two families. If you say that you want to break off the engagement, it will hurt the relationship between our families. On account of your young age, your speech is not good. Your uncles won’t blame you. We must not be disloyal. We will keep the promise we made twenty years ago. We will keep the promise we made in black and white. ”
Seeing that Yi Jie had yet to speak, Dongfang Liang continued, “Since ancient times, the marriage of children has always been decided by the parents. Husband and wife relationship is also only after marriage. It is not important whether or not you and Li Qian have any feelings for each other. What is important is whether or not the two of you are compatible. ”
Li Zhanyi also took the opportunity to speak to Yi Jie, “Before I arrived, I gave Li Yan and Miss Lin an official wedding. Ru Feng’s master acted as a witness and helped them in their work. Master Ru Feng had even personally asked Miss Lin if he was willing to marry Li Yan. Miss Lin did not change her mind when she saw you at the train station. She still decided to marry Li Yan. In the end, Master Ru Feng decided to marry me, and I held a grand wedding for them. I hope you will seriously consider marrying our Li Family. ” Seeing Yijie didn’t bother him at all.
Li Zhanyi relaxed his tone again, and said: “Your actions that day at my house, is one thing. We don’t care about you anymore. If the lady from our Li Family does not have a proper appearance and is not worthy of you, we will not force you to propose to cancel the engagement. It’s just as your father said just now. You and Li Qian are a perfect match, a natural couple, born together. You should choose the auspicious day of the foreword and marry you and Li Qian. This is the just result. ”
Li Zhanyi’s words were precisely this: if not soft, if not forceful, long, then whether it was love or hate it was hard to measure. One of them was so dizzy that his ears were ringing, and he was about to fall headlong into the ground. Seeing the other party abruptly stand up, he staggered and was about to fall to the ground.
Seeing that his son was about to fall, Dongfang Liang anxiously held him up. He felt both heartbroken and heartbroken. He understood Yijie’s feelings very well. Jie was also worried that his father would be angered. He covered his forehead with his hands, sat down, and said, “Father, I’m fine. It’s just a little bit of dizziness. ” Dongfang Liang quietly turned around and secretly shed tears as well.
One of them was extremely confused, while the other was filled with contradictions. He inwardly cursed at how he wasn’t at home at the time. He blamed the Pirate Zhu for forcing him to marry her without reason, and also blamed his father for prematurely arranging a marriage for him. He also blamed the Miss Lin for not waiting for his return. No matter how he thought about it, he couldn’t think of anyone to blame for this.
Suddenly, there was a “chi” sound. It was the sound of Li Qian cooking a frying pan. The sound woke him from his pain. He could no longer sit still. He came to Han River alone, and stood at the place where he and the Miss Lin had once played. He looked at the grassland where the Miss Lin had played with him. His mind was filled with thousands of thoughts, but he still felt that it was very familiar. It was as if he saw Miss Lin’s figure once again, and heard Miss Lin’s cheerful laughter once again. It was as if he saw Miss Lin’s beautiful smiling face once again. Those beautiful scenes from the past captivated him.
He could not help saying, “How wonderful it used to be!” He shook his head and sighed helplessly. “Oh, it’s all over!”
He looked at the torrential river again and said, “You are ruthless! It’s too heartless! ” At this moment, he really wanted to reverse the flow of time and have another go at it with the Miss Lin. He was in so much pain that he had lost interest in the world. Suddenly, he roared: “Qiu Hua, come back here!” In that moment, he saw Lin Qiuhua standing at the center of the river, waving and smiling at him. He threw caution to the wind and leaped into the river to catch up.
