Before the meal was finished and before the brothers found a chance to call for help, Yanghua Village became lively.
"Did you see it? Someone came to our village to propose marriage!"
"Hey, what's so weird about a proposal of marriage? I've had wedding banquets eight hundred times."
"Do you know how many gifts the people who propose marriage bring? It's countless. The people carrying the boxes can line up from the entrance of our village to the back mountain!"
"Such a big show? Then I have to go and see it!"
After hearing the news, everyone ran out of their homes to watch the excitement. Sure enough, they saw a group of men in red clothes walking on the road at the entrance of the village, carrying red wooden boxes. At the front of the team was a very luxurious carriage, with a festive red flower tied on the horse's head.
flower.
Even from a distance, the villagers could feel the joy coming to their faces.
"Whose house are you going to? Why haven't you heard anything about it before?"
"I don't know. Come on, let's go over and ask."
As soon as he got closer and before he spoke, he saw that the car curtain embroidered with gold thread was lifted from the inside, and a man in red clothes and elegant appearance poked his head out.
The man waved to the nearest villager: "Brother, do you know how to get to the Meng family?"
"There are many Meng families in our village. Which one do you ask?"
At this time, another gentle voice sounded from the carriage: "Meng Yuan's family, his wife's name is Shen Qingqing."
All the villagers were stunned. The two daughters of Meng Yuan's family were still little carrots and were not old enough to get married.
Some villagers continued to ask: "May I ask this gentleman, who are you here to do something to..."
Qi Xingtang was immersed in the joy of meeting his daughter. As soon as he heard the word "who", he blurted out: "Xue Bao, do you know Xuebao?" His precious daughter!
A group of villagers: "!"
The ancestors were shocked!
To propose marriage to a three-year-old baby, are they crazy, or is the world crazy?
Immediately, some villagers couldn't hold it in anymore, so they turned around and ran to Meng Yuan's house, shouting as they ran: "Qingqing, Meng Yuan, come out quickly, someone has come to propose marriage to Xiaoxue'er!"
When the sound reached Shen Qingqing's ears, she was so shocked that she almost dropped the porridge bowl in her hand. Meng Yuan also choked on her throat and couldn't breathe for a long time.
The two looked at each other, put down their bowls at the same time and went out to check the situation. When they opened the door, everything was red and green.
"Really?" Shen Qingqing couldn't believe it.
Meng Yuan calmly pulled out the dagger from his waist, "I don't know, it depends on the situation." If the situation is not right, just use the knife.
Soon, the team stopped in front of Meng's house. Ning and Qi Xingtang stepped out of the carriage one after another. When they saw Meng Yuan holding a knife in his hand outside the door and looking murderous, Qi Xingtang's legs softened and he almost knelt down.
If nothing else, I just feel guilty.
After all, what he did before was so careless that even the dogs on the roadside would scream "Silly x" when they saw him.
Qi Xingtang touched his wife's arm and whispered: "What should we do? They don't seem to welcome us very much."
Ning glanced sideways at him, "You can do it yourself. It's not me who does stupid things anyway."
He said and distanced himself from him.
On the other side, Shen Qingqing looked at the couple who were gradually approaching, and asked a question from the soul: "How did they turn the recognition of their daughter into a marriage proposal?"
Meng Yuan took back the dagger and shook his head: "I don't know, I can't understand it either."
Wearing red clothes and bringing gifts are acceptable, but what do you mean by tying so many big red flowers? Who is not confused after seeing this?
Qi Xingtang finally walked up to the two of them. When he saw the person, he admitted his mistake without saying anything: "I'm sorry, I did something wrong last time. I'm a fool, I'm a bastard. Please don't remember the villain."
Yes, give me a chance to make corrections."
The villagers' eyes widened when they heard this. What happened last time? What happened last time?
You’ve done something wrong and still want to propose marriage? Just dream!
"Meng Yuan and Qing Qing, if we need to take action, we will take care of them and beat them until they can't crawl out of Yanghua Village!"
Qi Xingtang weakly raised his hand, "Don't fight in groups, come one by one. I promise not to resist, just be gentle."
How could he see his precious daughter if she was beaten to death?
Shen Qingqing heard that what everyone was talking about was not the same thing at all, so she stood up and explained while holding back a smile: "Everyone has misunderstood. They are not here to propose marriage. These two are Xuebao's biological parents."
Villagers: "?"
Look at the big red flower, and look at the boy in the red hat. What's going on?
Qi Xingtang: "?"
Why did it turn into a marriage proposal?
His daughter is only three years old. If anyone dares to propose marriage, will their legs be broken?
Ning was dumbfounded, "Yes, we are here to recognize our daughter, and express our gratitude to Meng Yuan and Qingqing. We have been separated from our daughter for more than two years, and it is inevitable to be excited when we meet for the first time. If we do something that is not in compliance with the rules,
, please forgive me."
Meng Yuan: "There's nothing against the rules. I'm just curious about who tied up the big red flower."
Qi Xingtang coughed and said, "I tied it. I was so happy last night that I couldn't sleep, so I found red silk and tied flowers on the box. I tied those flowers all night long!"
There was still some slight grievance in the voice that was not understood by others.
The villagers nodded. The father and daughter were excited to see each other again, and they could understand it even if they put the red silk on their heads.
Wang Tiezhu raised his arm to greet the villagers to go home: "Everyone, please leave. Don't delay people's marriage recognition. Hurry up and go home for dinner. After dinner, you still have to work behind the scenes!"
Shen Qingqing turned sideways and made an invitation gesture to the Qi family couple, "Let's go in and talk too."
Qi Xingtang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and quickly called for the boy to carry the gift into the courtyard.
Meng Yuan raised his hand to stop his movement, "My wife already sent a thank-you gift yesterday, so there is no need to add more today. It's better to move back the same way."
"That's not okay! How can there be any reason to carry the gifts back? These are things that can be used daily. They are not expensive, so you can just keep them with peace of mind."
"Really?" Meng Yuan didn't believe it.
"Of course, if you don't believe me, let's open it and take a look." Qi Xingtang called the boy who was moving the boxes to him, opened the lid and saw that there was a box full of jewelry inside.
"This jewelry is a gift for Xuebao's mother. I don't know what she likes, so I picked a few of each kind. I hope you don't dislike it."
Then he opened another box, which was full of all kinds of clothes.
"These boxes are all clothes. I don't know your sizes, so I took two pieces of each size and style. You can wear them as you like."
"In this box are writing brushes, and in other boxes there are inkstones, rice paper, bows, arrows, daggers, etc. They are gifts for Xuebao and her brother."
"..."
Pens, ink, paper and inkstones, clothes and jewelry, jade ornaments... food, clothing, and use, nothing is left behind.
Meng Yuan was immediately stunned.
Sure enough, they are all things that can be used daily and are not "precious" at all.
Also shocked were Dabao and Sanbao, who were sneaking aside and peeking. The two brothers saw tension and panic in each other's eyes at the same time.
"My sister's parents are really rich..." Meng Qifeng held her chin with a sad look on her face.
How could he have the nerve to ask for advice if he was so rich? This chapter has been completed!
