It snowed suddenly.
What a heavy snow.
The noisy Qingjiang City finally calmed down.
On New Year's Eve, Sun Tao still visited the patients in the hospital and sent them New Year's Eve blessings.
Liu Muqiao returned to the orphanage.
Jiang Wei took enough Huiqi Pills.
This year is a little special.
Su Yajuan went home to reunite with her parents and returned to the villa.
Xiyu went back to her hometown, and she won’t come back until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
Liu Xu also had the New Year's Eve dinner and drove back. Her business has shrunk slightly this year and she has made millions less.
However, it doesn't matter. Earning a few million less does not affect her mood. She earns one to two million a year, and a few million is just a fraction. Besides, Liuxu already has enough money, and the pure interest is more than a lot.
If you run a factory, you can earn more in a year.
This year's New Year's Eve dinner, more than 30 orphans and 7 aunts set up 4 tables, all home-cooked dishes, and Xie Min cooked it herself.
Three aunts help together.
Jiang Wei did not participate in the kitchen work, she was responsible for playing with the children.
Liu Muqiao naturally wanted to show off his cooking skills.
The snow is heavy, so tomorrow is a good time to build a snowman in the yard.
In the yard of the orphanage, snowmen are built every year. However, in the past few years, the snow has not been heavy, so we can only build very small snowmen.
Jiang Wei has already discussed with the children, and they are planning to gather four masters and disciples of Tang Monk and a white dragon horse.
Among the orphans in the orphanage, one orphan has not returned. He studied civil engineering at Jiangdong University and is now working outside.
Jiang Wei didn't quite understand Xie Min's approach. The orphanage now has money, so why let the children suffer?
Jiang Wei has a rule that children in college only have living expenses and a small amount of pocket money. If they want to have more money, they have to find a way on their own. Liu Miqiao once worked as a summer and winter vacation worker for four years.
Now the children's food money has increased, and so has their pocket money. It's not because the orphanage is rich, but because prices have increased.
Xie Min wants to cultivate the hard-working and down-to-earth qualities of children.
Jiang Wei thought, why bother? Don't children from wealthy families have different appearances? It doesn't necessarily mean that filial sons come from poor families, but successful people come from all walks of life.
After finishing the meal and cleaning up, Xie Min came over with a stool, sat in front of Liu Maqiao and Jiang Wei, and said, "There is something I want to discuss with you."
Liu Muqiao felt nervous. Seeing Xie Min's seriousness, he knew it must be a big deal, so he said, "Say."
"Muchiao, do you still remember what I said five years ago?" Xie Min said.
"Remember." Liu Miqiao thought of his fiancée.
"That's good. You are 28 years old this year and have reached the age to talk about marriage. That matter should be settled. 23 years ago, you may not remember that there was a little girl 3 years younger than you. You guys
When we were playing together, you said that you wanted to marry her in the future. Her father was very happy at the time, and a few days later he officially came to propose marriage, saying that your father also agreed. This is the reason why you decided to get married."
Xie Min spoke very calmly, unhurriedly, took a sip of tea, and continued: "At that time, we always thought you were our child, Liu Hanmo, you also know, we thought you were our biological child. That girl
The family comes from a wealthy family, and she is very good-looking, so Liu Hanmo agreed. You know, our traditional culture is about being well-matched."
Liu Muqiao thought to himself, I am a good match? I am an orphan, I am a good match?
However, he did not refute.
"Of course, Mu Qiao, it's not the old society anymore. Marriage is free. At that time, I didn't nod. I think you still have the final say in your marriage. Now it's time to make a decision. Make it clear whether you can cancel this marriage or not.
Retreat?" Xie Min said.
"I told you a long time ago that I don't want it." Liu Maqiao said five years ago that he would not want this unknown girl.
"You don't want to ask who she is?" Xie Min said.
"Don't ask." Liu Muqiao said.
"Do you even wonder about beauty and ugliness?" Xie Min said.
"Why should I know? Whether it's ugly or beautiful, it has nothing to do with me. Why should I care about someone I don't know?" Liu Muqiao said.
"You know him."
"I know you?"
"Yes, not only do you know her, but you also know her family members. Zhu Bing."
"Zhu Bing?"
Liu Muqiao was quite surprised.
This is a very beautiful woman. There was a time when he really fell in love with her, but they didn't get together often, and they gradually became unfamiliar with her. Recently, they haven't contacted her for a long time.
"That's right, Zhu Bing. You know his parents, grandmother, and brother, and we have a good relationship with him, right?"
"Well, yes."
"You can make a decision now."
"Back off, back off." Liu Miqiao turned around and looked at Jiang Wei.
"Zhu Shengxi asked about this a few days ago and asked me to ask you during the Spring Festival. Her girl is also 25 years old. Up to now, Zhu Bing still doesn't know about it."
"Just reject them."
"Muchiao, although you are not our biological child, emotionally, I think you are my child. As a mother, I have always wanted you to find your other half. You are 28 years old this year, and Jiang Wei is also
Here, it’s time for you to make a decision about marriage.”
Liu Muqiao looked back at Jiang Wei, "I have made a decision a long time ago. I will marry Jiang Wei."
Jiang Wei quickly waved her hand and said: "Liu Miqiao, I don't agree!"
"Why?"
"Because my body is not suitable for giving birth and raising children."
"It's okay if we don't want children."
"Don't be stupid, children are the future of life. How can you not want children? Even those poor families who cannot afford to raise children still want children, let alone you?"
"It doesn't matter, we can adopt one."
"No, Liu Muqiao, I won't agree to it. You can choose Su Yajuan or Xi Yu, they are both your perfect match!"
Liu Muqiao shook his head violently and said, "I won't marry you unless you do it!"
Jiang Wei looked solemn and said: "This is not a matter of emotion, Liu Maqiao, I don't have to marry, but you have to marry me. If you must marry me, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life."
Liu Muqiao said excitedly: "Jiang Wei, unless you don't love me, I will give up this idea."
Jiang Wei said: "I can't lie to you, nor can I deceive myself. To be honest, I am very, very happy to be your wife. But, in fact, I cannot marry you."
Liu Muqiao looked excited and anxious, "Jiang Wei, why not? I love you. This is an unchangeable fact. I will not stop loving you just because of the reasons you said!"
Jiang Wei calmed down and said: "Liu Muqiao, I will not marry you in this life, but I will not marry anyone else. Don't worry, I will always be by your side. Su Yajuan and Xi Yu are both your perfect match.
You also like them. I believe that any of them will not hate me. I can be by your side and they will not be jealous or dislike me."
Seeing that this was the point, Xie Min quickly said: "Don't talk about it, let's not talk about it, don't talk about this topic. In two years, when you are 30 years old, Liu Miqiao, we will talk about this matter at that time. I
I also hope that Jiang Wei’s disease will be cured in the next two to three years.”
