The eighth day of the Lunar New Year is the day when Lingxi and Suning get engaged.
Early in the morning, the villa was very busy.
Pei Chuan led a dozen inner disciples to clean the house inside and out, remove weeds in the front and back yards, and hang red lanterns.
The eldest aunt was busy in the kitchen, instructing Su Jianguo and his daughter, as well as Su Tongyuan, who came specially to help, to wash and fold vegetables.
Tang Jingyue ordered people to remove the LCD TV in the center, and solemnly set up the incense table dedicated to the ancestors of Kunlun.
Su Mingkang ran upstairs and downstairs, moving stools and tables, panting.
The living room is indeed not small, but has more furniture.
In order to place three round tables in this crowded space, most things had to be moved out of the way.
"Mom, Wenxuan, can you two go upstairs and chat?"
"This sofa, hey, I have to drag it away."
Su Mingkang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said sarcastically: "The guests are arriving at nine o'clock. They are very anxious."
The old lady stood up quickly, took Fang Wenxuan's hand and said, "Look, I asked him to do it last night, but he had to wait until this morning."
“I don’t know who I resemble because of my dawdling personality.”
"It's a good thing that Ningzi is not like him, otherwise, he could drive me to death."
Fang Wenxuan said with a hint of pride: "Ning Zi is like me."
As the old lady walked upstairs, she said with a smile: "Tong Yuan looks like you, she's pretty."
"Looking at the entire Taoshan Village, there is no girl who is more charming than her."
"My granddaughter, tsk, deserves to be one in a million."
Fang Wenxuan said angrily: "Mom, don't praise her like that."
"You didn't notice when Tong Yuan was acting agitated. He's so stubborn."
"She..."
The conversation between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law gradually faded away, and Su Mingkang stood there and giggled.
The wife I miss so much is finally back, it feels so good.
On the other side, Lingxi's room.
The entire bed was covered with engagement dresses, more than twenty of them.
Colorful and dazzling.
High heels, piled up next to the desk, unopened, definitely no less than thirty pairs.
Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, crowns, and countless other matching jewelry.
Neatly stacked in the jewelry box, they shine with the "smell of money".
And all of this comes from the handiwork of Lu Zhixia, the eldest lady of the Lu family.
"This burgundy dress is beautiful and wraps tightly enough to satisfy your style if you don't want to go the sexy route."
"It goes well with, um, those pair of high heels with red soles and blue diamonds."
"As for the crown, how about the golden one?"
Lu Zhixia circled around Lingxi and said, "You who used to be the least interested in love are actually the first among the three of us to get engaged."
"When Tong Yuan and I meet our Mr. Right, you and Suning's children will be able to make a difference."
"Sure enough, marriage has been predestined by God, so you can't force it or rush it."
Lingxi sat in front of the dressing table with a hydrating mask on her face and said, "Are there not many men pursuing you?"
"From school to business, all the young masters in Kyoto, if you, Miss Lu, just nod, you won't be alone now."
"Whether it's a well-matched family or a poor family, when did the Lu family ever value money?"
Lu Zhixia sighed: "Looks, family background, these are secondary in my opinion."
"When two people are together, the most important thing is the feeling."
"Some people clearly give you a great first impression. But over time, you will discover the hypocrisy they deliberately hide."
"In an instant, my good feelings disappeared, and I even started to feel sick to my stomach."
"For example, my ex-boyfriend is the guy who likes to exercise all day long."
"In the first month of my relationship with him, he told me that he particularly liked small animals."
"I often feed stray cats and dogs, and I keep pet pigs, alpacas, and parrots at home."
"Besides working out every day, my biggest hobby is to stay at home and work as a shit shovel."
"But one time, we had just finished watching a movie. In the underground parking lot, I saw him kicking a stray cat away with my own eyes."
"The reason is that the cat blocked him from walking."
"Isn't it funny?"
Lu Zhixia's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm, and he said disdainfully: "The actions a person reveals unintentionally are often the truest thoughts in his heart."
"I don't care at all whether he likes animals or not. What I care about is that he can't lie to me."
"It's extremely disgusting to win my favor with the so-called kindness of your heart."
Lingxi pretended to be an experienced person and preached: "When two people are together, they must learn to accommodate each other."
"Insignificant little shortcomings are what people will always have."
Lu Zhixia shook his head and said: "They are completely two concepts."
"Take your Suning as an example. He came out of Taoshan Village and his life experience is almost completely blank."
"In front of you, he will sit or stand as he pleases. He cannot and does not understand the tricks of the trade."
"Even if there is a little trick, you can easily see through it."
"These are insignificant flaws."
"But the other kind of people grew up in a different environment and had more life experiences. They subconsciously put on masks for themselves."
