After Bai Banxia asked Qi Zhen, Qi Zhen was silent for a moment.
"If I agree, will you think I'm not in a hurry to get married to you?" he asked after a while.
Bai Banxia was stunned, "Why do you think so?"
Qi Zhen smiled and said, "I'm afraid of making you angry."
She suddenly realized, isn't this the desire to survive?
In her previous life, she often heard girls complaining that their boyfriends were too straight, had no desire to live, and always said the wrong things to make them angry.
As a single woman with no intention of falling in love, Bai Banxia just laughed it off at the time. Now seeing Qi Zhen who is full of desire for survival, she finally understands what the girls were talking about back then.
"I respect your decision. If you think it's better to postpone it, then postpone it, but I feel that if I agree directly, you may misunderstand that I am not in a hurry to get married to you." Qi Zhen explained slowly, his voice exceptionally gentle.
"Of course, I wish I could get married to you tomorrow so that we can be together every day." He added.
Bai Banxia's face burned again. This man was so good at flirting that even a straight woman like her couldn't bear to say such things.
"Then, let's agree first. My eldest cousin is older than us and the situation is quite special, so let them handle it first." Bai Banxia said hesitantly.
The corners of Qi Zhen's lips curled up, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"I'll go talk to my aunt and the others!" Bai Banxia almost ran away. He was so gentle and his voice was so pleasant that her face was burning.
When she told everyone Qi Zhen's reply, her uncle suddenly laughed and said, "Did Xiao Qi tell you something nice? Why is your face so red?"
It was okay not to say anything. When she said it, her face became even hotter and she hurriedly pretended to be calm and said, "What do you mean? He just said that I would make the decision."
The uncle laughed heartily, "It's great to be young. Seeing you young people having good relationships makes us, the elders, happy too."
His aunt hit him and said, "If you are happy, don't make fun of the child. Girls are thin-skinned."
"Okay, okay, stop laughing." The uncle said he was not smiling, but the corners of his mouth were grinning almost to the base of his ears.
After that, the details of the marriage were discussed. The Zhang family discussed a charter and still had to discuss it with the Li family.
This is not because the Li family is well off, but because the Zhang family respects their in-laws and their new daughter-in-law. They had discussed the marriage with the Luo family and tried their best to follow the requirements of the bride's family.
Bai Banxia became worried at this time. She gave her second cousin a flower crown when she got married. She had to prepare for her first cousin's wedding, right? But she didn't have enough time.
Her aunt was actually making one for her, but it seemed a bit perfunctory to give that one to her eldest cousin.
While she was worrying, Qi Zhen walked up to her and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
She expressed her worries and Qi Zhen smiled and said, "You just draw the pattern and I will arrange for someone to make it."
"Then we have to find skilled craftsmen, and they must be at my aunt's level." Bai Banxia said.
"I found someone to embroider your wedding dress. She is also good at embroidering flowers on your hair. It just happened that the time has been postponed, so she has the energy to embroider the flower crown first. And I heard that she has accepted an apprentice, so it will be more convenient to have a helper."
Qi Zhen said.
Bai Banxia reacted and asked: "The old man who followed you before? Is it safe?"
Qi Zhen nodded, "I'll know when I see you."
"good."
With the skilled craftsman, Bai Banxia felt more at ease and went back to the room to design the pattern. Qi Zhen followed her and kept her company while grinding the ink.
The family members came out after the conversation was over. Looking through the window, they saw the two of them looking like they had been peacefully together for a long time. They couldn't bear to disturb them and walked away quietly.
By late at night, Bai Banxia had already drawn a first draft, but it still needed to be adjusted. Qi Zhen did not allow her to draw any more for fear that she would hurt her eyes.
"I think it would be good for more people to take care of Banxia from now on, so as not to overwork her." Zhang Lingzhi said to Bai Tian with satisfaction.
Bai Tian nodded, "Sometimes she is not happy when talking about my daughter. From now on, let Xiao Qi do it. When she is angry, she is also angry with Xiao Qi."
Zhang Lingzhi was speechless, "Aren't you afraid that your daughter and son-in-law will have a falling out?"
Bai Tian smiled mischievously, "I've observed that Xiao Qi seems to have a cold temper, but he is very painful to Pinellia, and he is very obedient and can't quarrel. And that boy is also smart, and he has a good temper when dealing with our daughter.
If you have one thing, you can't quarrel or quarrel."
"It seems to be true." Zhang Lingzhi said happily.
In the days that followed, Bai Banxia was still looking forward to the arrival of Master Xiu Niang, but in the end, she waited for Doctor Duan first.
Divine Doctor Duan went directly to Xuanji Hall. He was an old friend of the Great Elder, so he only wanted to stop by to pay a visit and take a look at the rising star.
"Then you have to take a look at our current number one D. Although she is from a girl's family, I am already testing her." The great elder said with a smile.
Divine Doctor Duan was a little surprised, "I've never heard of you mentioning this person before, how come you got tested so quickly? With your temperament, don't you always observe him for two or three years first?"
"That was before, but now my health is not as good as it used to be. There are some things that I can't put off. Or maybe I wasn't very satisfied before, so I have to observe and look for the horse." The elder said.
Doctor Duan laughed and said, "You rate this girl very highly, and you are riding a donkey to find a horse? This will make the previous candidates know, and they will be very sad?"
The great elder smiled and waved his hand, "They won't know."
Then the elder introduced Bai Banxia's situation and said: "I arranged for someone to inquire about some things about her. Although the observation was not long ago, this girl is a good candidate for medical practice. Not only is she talented, but she also has a benevolent heart.
.”
"How do you say this?" Doctor Duan asked.
The First Elder talked about Bai Banxia's free clinic in the countryside, how he fainted from exhaustion in order to save the villagers in the collapse, etc. Doctor Duan had not heard Po Lang report these before, and the more he listened, the more interested he became in Bai Banxia.
"So what nonsense are you talking about? Let me see someone quickly." Divine Doctor Duan urged.
"Don't mention the things about Xuanji Hall. It will be bad if you scare others, and these are not things she can know now." The great elder warned.
Doctor Duan said impatiently: "I know, I know, why do you talk more and more nonsense as you get older?"
"Okay, okay, I'll take you to see her now." The elder led the way to Bai Banxia's clinic.
Doctor Duan pulled him and said in a low voice: "Don't mention my identity, just say I'm a patient here seeking medical advice and see what she says."
"Don't embarrass our people too much." The great elder said uneasily.
"knew."
When the elder elder brought Doctor Duan to see Bai Banxia, he introduced him as the patient who came for consultation.
Bai Banxia looked up at Doctor Duan and asked, "Is this the second test?"
The great elder was choked and said hurriedly: "No, the interval between tests is not that short. Don't misunderstand me."
