Chapter 83 The Awakening of Memory Part 6
"I..." The Taoist temple here was about to speak.
The village chief stood up and walked towards the door while touching his stomach. "I'm full, I'm full, I suddenly remembered that Brother Li next door asked me to go after dinner, and you guys talk." When I passed by the Taoist practice, I patted him hard on his shoulder. "Talk well."
After the village chief left, the thin layer of window paper between Xiudao and Ling'er had been pierced, and the atmosphere in the whole room became a bit subtle.
"That," Xiu Dao quickly organized the sentence in his mind, looked at the ceiling with his eyes and asked, "What do you think about what uncle said just now? Do you agree?"
Ling'er clenched her fists and hung her on her thighs. She looked at the Tao with shy face and said softly, "I'll listen to you."
"Really? You agreed to Ling'er!" Xiu Dao breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't dare to look at Ling'er just now because he was worried that Ling'er blamed him for his own actions, but he thought that the person who took action seemed to be him.
"Yes." Ling'er nodded gently.
"Thank you, Ling'er."
"Thank me? What do you thank me?" Ling'er asked in confusion.
"Thank you for letting me meet you, thank you for letting me know you, thank you for letting me know you, thank you for letting me like you, thank you for letting me," Xiu Dao looked at Ling'er, pulled her little hand from her leg, held it carefully in the palm of his hand, and said seriously. "Fall in love with you."
Ling'er felt the warmth in her hands, looked back at the Taoist practice with a red face, her eyes shyly and joyful. "So too."
The Taoist monk couldn't help but reach out and hug Ling'er into her arms, and kissed her gently on her forehead, "Ling'er, I know that today's incident is too sudden for you. You are not ready yet, but please believe me, every word I say is sincere."
Ling'er lay in the arms of Taoism, raised her head to meet his gentle gaze. "I believe in you."
While meditating Taoism, I gently stroked the silk of bells as smooth as silk, I smelled the fragrance that emanated from it. "Linger, I know you have always been very curious about my family, but why have you never asked?"
"Because I only care about you." Ling'er blinked mischievously.
Xiu Dao couldn't help but kiss her on the forehead again, "Today I will tell you about my family. In the east of this Great Six, there is a lush green bamboo sea, and my family is in the depths of that bamboo sea. I think you will definitely like it after you have been there.
"As long as I'm with you, I like it no matter where I go, hehe~"
"So too," Xiu Dao responded with a smile, and then continued, "Linger, do you know? Our Xiu family is very famous outside."
"How famous is it?" Ling'er interrupted curiously.
"From the princes and nobles, to the people, almost everyone knows it." Xiu Dao said with a little pride.
"So powerful?" Ling'er exclaimed, then asked, "Then are your nobles? I heard from my father that nobles are very famous."
"No, our family is not a noble, and there is one of the rules in our family that no member of the family shall accept the title of a nobleman." Xiu Dao shook his head and denied.
"Isn't it aristocrat? Then what does your family do? Are they doing business? I heard from my father that there are many famous families in doing business."
"It doesn't count." Xiu Dao looked at Ling'er and smiled mysteriously.
"Oh, don't keep it from keeping me from grabbing my appetite." Ling'er looked at Xiu Dao's expression and gently hammered his chest. "Hate~"
"Haha~" Xiu Dao kissed Ling'er's forehead again, "I said 'yes' because our family is indeed doing business, and said 'no' because the things we buy and sell are quite special. They are neither goods nor services, but "message."
"Hmm? Can you buy and sell this news? How to buy and sell?" This was the first time Ling'er heard it and asked curiously.
"Of course, no matter what it is or who it is, as long as we can afford the remuneration we want, and our family has never made any mistakes in the news of the sale."
"It's really okay?" Ling'er asked in surprise with her mouth wide open.
"As long as you can afford the reward," Xiu Dao smiled strangely.
"Will anyone really come to buy news?"
"In a constant stream!"
"It's really strange that people outside are all so concerned about their own affairs?" Ling'er muttered in a low voice.
Ling'er's playful appearance made Xiu Dao kiss her forehead again, "It's very strange, hahaha~"
"I heard you say this, then your family should be considered a prominent family outside. I heard from my father that those prominent families outside cannot be controlled by themselves in their own way of marriage. Will your parents also hope that you can find a good family? Will they not like me?" Ling'er suddenly thought of this question, and looked at the Taoist practice and her eyebrows frowned slightly again.
After so long contact, Xiudao knew that Ling'er would only have the habit of frowning when she was nervous and worried. Every time she saw Ling'er like this, Xiudao would reach out to smooth her, just like in the stream in the mountains that night. This time, Xiudao pressed her gently between her eyebrows and leaned into her ear and whispered, "Don't worry, our family does not have any special rules for marriage, and my parents are also very open-minded and don't care about this matter. My mother said you just want me to like it. Besides, our Ling'er is so pretty and so well-behaved and sensible, they will definitely like you."
"real?"
"Really, when we get engaged here, you and I will know when we go home." Xiu Dao promised.
"Hmph~Who wants to go home with you~" Ling'er pushed away the hand of cultivating Taoism and said mischievously.
"You~" Xiu Dao raised Ling'er's chin with his hand and leaned over to kiss her mouth. Ling'er did not resist, but closed her eyes silently.
"There is one more thing," Xiu Dao left Ling'er's lips. "My father is the current head of the Xiu family. I am his only son. I will inherit his position in the future."
"Ah~" Ling'er hadn't reacted yet, "Then you?"
"Yes." Jingdao bent down again.
...
The next day, the news that Xiu Dao and Ling'er would get engaged in a month was circulating in the village. Of course, this was due to Ling'er's father, the village chief of Xigri Village. There was also a small episode. After hearing the news, all the young men in the village, who were about 20 years old, collectively suffered from insomnia, but fortunately, everyone was young and they quickly walked out.
The engagement of the daughter of the village chief's family is a first-class event in the village. In addition, the village has not held a wedding for several years. This time, the villagers were particularly concerned. The whole village was busy, but the two parties involved became idle people in the Taoist practice and Ling'er, and they were tired of being together all day long.
Everything went smoothly, and the engagement was held as scheduled one month later. The engagement ceremony was carried out according to the tradition of Xigre Village. The two stood between heaven and earth and were officially engaged under the witness of the whole village and the village chief. After the engagement, Xiudao and Ling'er stayed in the village for a few days, but the day of going down the mountain was still there.
On the day when Xiudao and Ling'er went down the mountain, the village chief and the villagers came. Ling'er looked at the place where she had lived for more than 20 years, and her tears couldn't stop falling. Her reluctance made her feel sore in her heart. Finally, at the urging of the village chief, Ling'er turned around and went down the mountain with Xiudao in three steps. The village chief kept standing outside the village and watching Ling'er. Even though he could no longer see, he was still standing there, and his tears were even more uncontrollably falling.
A year and a half later, Xiu Dao and Ling'er came back with a girl in their arms. In the past year and a half, they had officially married, and this girl was their first child. Seeing Ling'er back, she was still holding a girl in her hand, but the village chief was so happy that she took the girl directly from Ling'er's hand and looked carefully. The girl's face was pink and her baby fat was very cute. The two little arms were exposed outside, and her eyes were even dark and shiny, looking at everything around her. The village chief teased the girl while walking, and the girl was not afraid of being angry, and she would laugh from time to time.
