Twice, Xu Yansheng hesitated to speak when he saw her. When Ning Yue asked him if something was wrong, he would just shake his head.
Later, she simply stopped asking, not bothering to say anything. If he didn't say anything, there must be reasons he didn't want to say. Asking too many questions would easily annoy people.
She originally thought that Du Qiaoyu would take action soon, but after three or four days, she didn't hear any gossip, but the people in the village looked at her more and more strangely.
Xu Yansheng thought staying in the hospital was too troublesome, so he was discharged from the hospital on the fifth day. In fact, with the blessing of Ning Yue's spiritual spring water, his concussion was completely healed. Even the wound on his head, the doctor said, he recovered very quickly. As long as you change the medicine regularly, it's basically no big deal.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yansheng was not honest right after he was discharged from the hospital. On Sunday morning, he suddenly ran to his home with the principal.
"The thing is, it's just like this. Xiao Xu entrusted it to me. In my opinion, these two children are quite suitable. The boy is unmarried and the girl is unmarried. Moreover, Xiao Xu has already asked his family for permission, and I have also read the telegram from his family. I agreed that he would come to your house to propose marriage, so I went with him. Brother Du, look at this..."
Ning Yue felt as if she had been struck by lightning. What kind of madness did Xu Yansheng get? What kind of marriage proposal was there? The most important thing is, who are the two of them?
"Principal, please wait a moment, I want to talk to Xu Yansheng alone."
As he said that, he raised his chin towards Xu Yansheng and said, "Come out with me."
Give him a good beating. A good beating will probably wake up this kid. Maybe he made such a ridiculous decision because he took a knock that day and fell into the river and his brain was waterlogged. She just helped him wake up.
The principal echoed: "Yes, yes, you should talk carefully. We must reach a consensus before we can talk about marriage!"
He finally figured out that what happened today might be Xiao Xu's wishful thinking. Xiao Du obviously didn't know anything. It was unreasonable for him to think that the two of them worked together every day and were in love for a long time. In addition, the recent time in the village The rumors got worse and worse, so Xiao Xu came to propose marriage in a hurry.
Ning Yue called people outside the yard. She walked straight west and stopped when she reached a deserted place. When she turned around, Xu Yansheng was about one meter behind her. However, Xu Yansheng had not recovered from his serious illness, and his face looked pale. Looks a little pale.
A trace of guilt appeared in Ning Yue's heart, but she still said in a strong tone: "Don't tell me that you did this because you fell in love with me."
Xu Yansheng: "...Oh."
Ning Yue: "...oh what the hell is it?"
"Then what do you want to hear?"
"truth."
Xu Yansheng kicked the stones on the ground with his feet, and then looked at Ning Yue with a deep look, "You may not know how bad the rumors about the two of us are in the village these days. When my aunt went to the hospital to see me that day, she asked me what I planned to do. Yes, I asked your family about their wishes before I was discharged from the hospital, and finally decided to come to your house to propose marriage today."
"What rumor?"
Xu Yansheng thought to himself, sure enough, she really didn't know those things.
"...Those are not important. What is important is that I came here to propose marriage today with sincerity. I asked my elders for permission in advance. For today, I specially changed into new clothes, prepared gifts, and asked the principal to be the matchmaker... …”
"But there is no love between us."
Du Ningyue opened her mouth to refuse, but then 009 suddenly appeared again: [Host, I suggest you not to refuse.]
[What do you mean? Your system also has matchmakers? 】
009 was furious: [What do you mean by being a matchmaker? I’m just giving reasonable advice! Do you think you were single all your life in your last life? Can I say more?
Because your not getting married in the last life does not conflict with our mission.
But this life is different. The original owner's wish is for the whole family to live happily. If you never get married, first of all, Zhang Damei and Du Ermin will not be happy.
Moreover, people in this era have conservative ideas. If you remain unmarried, you will definitely be criticized by outsiders, and it will also have some impact on your family, right?]
Ning Yue:...Yes.
[The most important thing is that Du Taohua has been scheming against you in this life. Think about it, why did she first throw you to Zhang Chengrong, and then later bring you together with Xu Yansheng?
Because she feels that as long as you marry either of these two people, you will be sad, miserable, and even die, but she can live a better life than you.
But the current situation is that Da Ya is married to Zhang Chengrong, and you want the Du family to live happily. What if Du Taohua is unwilling to accept Da Ya’s good intentions and turns against her?】
Ning Yue: It is indeed possible. Du Taohua is a mad dog and does things that are inexplicable. You said that you have been reborn and you can't live comfortably if you do anything, but she insists on competing with herself. This is not Looking for trouble?
If she sees that Da Ya is living a good life and turns around to deal with Da Ya, she may not be able to take care of it even with eight pairs of eyes.
[In this case, it is better for the host to get married himself. If the host lives a better life than Du Taohua, then her attention will always be on the host, and then the Du family will be safe.
Especially since the Xu family's crisis has passed, if you marry Xu Yansheng, not only will you not suffer and die, but you will also live a good life that Du Taohua has never been able to live through her whole life. What will happen to her?】
Ning Yue thought to herself, what else could she do? She would probably be furious to death!
Then she lived in envy, jealousy and hatred every day, because this kind of life was forced upon her by Du Taohua!
Suddenly I felt that the system’s proposal could be seriously considered.
Glancing at the man with an expectant look on his face, Ning Yue couldn't help lowering her eyes and said, "I want to ask you a question."
Xu Yansheng couldn't help but straighten his back, "You ask."
"If there weren't these rumors, would you still come to my house to propose marriage?"
Xu Yansheng shook his head honestly: "No, at least not now. Don't be angry. I'm just telling the truth. I never thought I would arrange my marriage so early. In my opinion, marriage must involve the presence of elders. Elders all agree that marriage can only lead to happiness.
Therefore, I never have much contact with girls in the village, including female educated youth."
"I can understand that you don't like me. The reason why you came to propose marriage today is because of the rumors in the village, right?"
Xu Yansheng hesitated for a moment and then shook his head, "I don't know if I like you or not, but I have a certain fondness for you, so I don't object to marrying you."
Ning Yue raised her head and looked directly at him. The early spring sunshine was warm and shone on his slightly pale face. His eyes were firm and persistent, and he looked at her without any evasion.
"I originally wanted to reject you directly.
But I think it would make my family worried that people in the village would spread gossip about us, so let’s discuss it.”
