Chapter 373: Miss, are you confessing your love?
Li Xuan urged Shen Lan to go to his room to wash up, then she pulled Shen Yun's hand, "Good sister, Shen Lan is just heartbroken for you, don't cry anymore."
"I know, but I also want to help my brother; he has been outstanding since he was young and is the hope of our entire family."
Back then, each village only had one recommendation quota for Gongnongbing University, but my brother managed to get it solely through his own ability.
"Do you really want to help your brother?" Li Xuan asked again.
Shen Yun rolled her eyes at her, "I know your maiden family doesn't treat you like a human being, but please don't question the bond between my brother and me since we were children."
"Then go quietly," Li Xuan offered her an idea, "Your brother is just like that, too kind, too upright. Once you coax Tian Fuguang well, won't this matter be resolved?"
"Go! Wear the new clothes Tian Fuguang bought for you."
Shen Yun listened to this suggestion from Li Xuan.
She indeed coaxed Tian Fuguang into being very happy, and because of the more intimate contact, she felt that she had already fallen for Tian Fuguang.
In the past, she had heard the women in the village say that older men know how to cherish people, and she didn't expect it to be true.
Out of consideration for her, Tian Fuguang not only wanted to waive the rent for the whole family but also said he would find an opportunity in the future to transfer her brother out of the Kitchen Squad.
Currently, only she and Li Xuan know about this.
She didn't dare tell her mother or her brother at all.
However, that wretch Li Xuan actually used this matter to threaten her, asking her for money.
"Don't forget, you were the one who instigated me to do this!"
Li Xuan smiled faintly, "But when I said that, I was also heartbroken for your brother. My original intention was just to have you say a few soft words to Tian Fuguang; I didn't expect you to give yourself to him directly. Do you know how important chastity is to a woman?"
"And I'm not asking to borrow money from you for any other reason. You don't know, ever since your niece and nephew went missing, I haven't slept well once. I've finally managed to find a lead now, and they are your own niece and nephew too!"
"Rest assured, Tian Fuguang dotes on you so much, he will definitely be willing to spend money on you. As long as you give your sister-in-law some travel money from time to time, I guarantee that only the two of us will know about this."
Consequently, Shen Yun gave a portion of the money Tian Fuguang had given her for clothes to Li Xuan.
"Did you really find their whereabouts?"
Li Xuan nodded, "Mm, in the neighboring county."
During this period, she had started from a staff member at the Fuliyuan and learned a tiny bit of information about her children.
As long as she was given more time, she would definitely be able to find the children.
Looking at her, Shen Yun felt she was somewhat pitiful.
Tian Fuguang was truly good to her and was very infatuated with her, often asking her out.
……
"Look, who is that?" Ming Zi was linking arms with Si Rong as the two were shopping for wedding supplies when she vaguely caught sight of an acquaintance, "It looks like Shen Lan's little sister?"
Si Rong looked in the direction she was pointing, "It is her."
Only, at this moment, she was holding onto an old man's arm.
"Didn't her father die long ago?"
Si Rong nodded, "Maybe she found a new father."
She had no memory of this person, and she hadn't seen him around Shen Yun in her past life either.
In her past life, whenever she met someone of a similar age to Shen Yun, she would introduce them to her, but Shen Yun had her eyes set too high and couldn't look favorably upon any of them. Later, she finally took a liking to that Yang Junwei, but unfortunately, she didn't live happily either.
It seems that in this life, without her introductions, she has started to find men based on her own ability, only the quality looks really not very good.
Ming Zi let out a snort of laughter, "At such an age, he wouldn't have a wife at home, would he?"
"It's none of our business," Si Rong didn't intend to meddle, the karma of the Shen family in this life would be borne by themselves.
She was getting married tomorrow.
"Let's go, let's pick out wedding shoes!"
According to the customs here, a new bride must wear green shoes to get married.
At the Baihuo Shangchang, Si Rong picked out a pair of green wedding shoes, a high-heeled style.
Then they went to the state-run canteen together to have a meal.
Braised pork was Ming Zi's favorite; Si Rong ordered a bowl of three-delicacy noodles and a plate of cold lotus root slices.
The two chatted while they ate.
"Getting married tomorrow, are you nervous?"
Si Rong was quite nervous.
Because she had been teasing Jiang Cheng for a month straight, he said he would properly 'take care' of her on their wedding night.
"A little."
"I'll stay with you," Ming Zi patted the back of her hand, "As your bridesmaid, I'm going to stay at your house tonight to keep you company."
"Okay."
"After you get married, we won't be able to be like this anymore," Ming Zi suddenly felt her nose ache and wanted to cry.
She also took the opportunity to ask the heavens again why she wasn't a man, so she wouldn't have to be separated from Rongrong.
"Why wouldn't we be able to?" Si Rong held her hand, "Even if I'm married, we can still hang out together during the day just like before!"
Ming Zi looked at her with a resentful expression, "You said it yourself, during the day."
Si Rong: ……
At night, she had things to do at night.
"Like us married women, we only have time during the day."
Ming Zi: ……
She was already full of 'dog food', it was a real pity about the remaining few pieces of braised pork.
On the eve of the wedding, Si Rong and Ming Zi lay side by side on the bed, neither of them feeling sleepy for a while.
They chatted from the time they first met all the way to the present.
"Rongrong, I'm actually quite happy for you," in the dark night, starlight flickered in Ming Zi's eyes, "Jiang Cheng is very good to you, and his family is good too; I am very relieved that you are marrying him."
"In the future, you will definitely meet a man who is full of you in his heart and eyes, and you will definitely be as happy as I am, willing to marry him."
"Actually, my luck has always been average since I was a child; there are only two things that I feel the God of Fate has favored me with."
"One was when my grandfather insisted on supporting me through high school and then letting me attend Gongnongbing University, and the other was meeting you."
"Really, do you know? At first, I thought you were very silly, doing everything without any guile."
"But later I discovered it was because you were protected too well since you were young, and your family members all loved you so much."
"Later, I fell in love with you too."
Si Rong wanted to laugh and cry at the same time, "Miss Ming Zi, are you confessing to me?"
"Listen to me finish first," Ming Zi's pillow was already soaked, "Meeting you might have used up too much of my luck. I am quite grateful to the Heavens in my heart, but people, you know, can't have everything. Even if I don't have any romance in the future, I accept it."
"In short, remember, you must be happy, otherwise I won't let the Heavens off!"
The Heavens:...
"Silly," Si Rong used the back of her hand to wipe away her own tears, "Stop teasing me into crying; tomorrow I want to be the most beautiful bride, it won't look good if my eyes are swollen."
They slept hand in hand, just like they did in the dormitory when they were young.
Early the next morning, Fang Ting came to the Si Family.
Originally, she only intended to symbolically attend this wedding that made Si Rong happy and herself sad, but she couldn't withstand Si Rong's pestering.
Calling her "Sister Ting" every other word, then looking at her with curved, expectant eyes.
"Sister Ting, you're here!"
Si Rong was very happy to see her, "Hurry over and eat breakfast!"
She was truly so beautiful, so cute, and smelled fragrant and soft; she, who was about to marry love, looked so happy.
Fang Ting really wanted to ruin this atmosphere, so she said in a rough voice, "I came today to snatch Jiang Cheng from you!"
