Remarry

Dali sighed worriedly, "Brother Baihao, why do I look down on those delicate young ladies and have to come to Miss Xu?"

The voice was a little loud. Sima Hong, who had already hugged Mingyu in his arms, glared at the wall. Bai Hao secretly said "Oh no!" and immediately jumped off Dali's shoulder. He tapped Dali's forehead, shook his head and said, "You don't understand, this is love!"

Although Dali was young, he knew that his master was famous and had a great reputation. The young ladies in the capital looked at him with half admiration and half awe. They were all gentle and obedient, and their voices were not much higher than the hum of a mosquito. Approaching Baihao, Dali whispered, "Miss Xu is so brave, she is even more fierce than the Tartar woman, and she dared to yell at me!" Alas, the general, who always had a bad temper, smiled at her and humbled himself. He didn't want those delicate young ladies to come to Miss Xu to get scolded.

Baihao smiled and thought to himself, "You kid haven't seen her more ferocious side yet, you dare to slap me in the face!" "This is called Zhou Yu fighting Huang Gai, one is willing to fight, the other is willing to be beaten." Baihao summed it up brilliantly.

The light bulb left, and Sima Hong hugged Mingyu with satisfaction. He looked at Mingyu's blushing face and her rosy lips in his arms. Recalling the soft and sweet touch when he kissed Mingyu just now, Sima Hong felt itchy and gently lowered his head towards Mingyu's lips.

Seeing them getting closer and closer, just when they were about to collide, there was a knock on the door of the Xu family, "Mingyu, it's us, open the door!"

Mingyu immediately became like a frightened cat. She pushed Sima Hong away, but she didn't dare to look at him. She waved her hands and whispered hurriedly, "Go away, go away!" If her father saw her again, she guessed that a beating wouldn't be enough.

Sima Hong wanted to stay, but then he changed his mind. The Xu family had a deep-rooted prejudice against him. If he climbed over the wall and broke into the house while Mingyu was alone, wouldn't the Xu family's impression of him be even worse? Think about it, poor Xu Mingye didn't do anything, but he was beaten for three days before he was allowed to enter the Fu family. In his case... three months? It won't be three years... Is this the legendary, willing to sacrifice one's life to bring down the father-in-law

Thinking of this, Sima Hong immediately realized his mistake. However, when he saw the little girl blushing and lowering her head to urge him to leave, but not daring to look at him directly, her face was as red as a ripe apple, so beautiful that people were reluctant to move away. He didn't want to leave anymore.

There was another knock on the door, and Mrs. Xu raised her voice a little, "Mingyu? What are you doing? Open the door!"

Mingyu was anxious, she looked up and glared at Sima Hong, "Why don't you leave?"

"Go, go, go!" Sima Hong perfunctorily went forward and pecked Mingyu's lips. After stealing her, he had a smile of success on his face. He immediately turned around and jumped swiftly. He stepped on the wall, and his tall and sturdy figure quickly flipped over the wall. When he jumped off the wall, he did not forget to give Mingyu a smug smile.

Mingyu took a deep breath, patted her hot cheeks, and when she looked at the wall again, Sima Hong was no longer there. She hurried over to open the door for her parents and brother.

"What are you busy with at home? Why did you take so long to open the door?" Mrs. Xu said with a smile. Her son's marriage was settled and she was in a very good mood.

Mingyu shook her head. "I didn't do anything. I just fell asleep in bed and didn't hear you knocking on the door."

Xu Mingye stared at Mingyu suspiciously for a few times, and saw that her cheeks were red, she looked very energetic, and her hair was a little messy, as if she had had enough sleep. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch her cheek and said with a smile: "You have gained a lot of weight. If you keep eating and sleeping, you will be ready for slaughter by the end of the year."

"You can be released from the market now! You can be released from the market now!" Mingyu cursed back angrily.

Xu Changqian patted his son on the head and scolded him, "You are about to get married, and you still bully your sister! What's wrong with sleeping a little longer?"

"Nothing..." Xu Mingye touched his head angrily. In fact, he was just an adopted child...

Mingyu understood what was going on and asked in surprise, "Brother's marriage has been decided? When will it be decided?"

Madam Xu pulled Mingyu into the house and said with a smile, "It's on August 20th. Both families don't want to delay it too long. Fortunately, the Fu family has been paying attention to the girl's marriage for a long time and started preparing the wedding dress last year. Otherwise, it would be too late."

After entering the house, Mingyu poured tea for everyone in the family. Madam Xu drank a sip of hot tea, asked Mingyu to sit next to her, and sighed, "Le Mei is such a good girl. She was wronged by marrying into our family. I always wanted to compensate her. Now both shops are making money, and we saved a lot before. I originally thought that if I gritted my teeth and took out all the money, I could still buy them another house to live in alone."

"Ah?" Mingyu was at a loss and glanced at Xu Mingye subconsciously. She had lived with Xu Mingye for so many years, and now Xu Mingye was getting married and suddenly he would not live with them anymore. It was like the separation of family members, and she couldn't help feeling a little lost and reluctant.

Madam Xu patted Mingyu's hand and shook her head, saying, "The Fu family didn't agree. After all, they are a wealthy family, not like the Zhou family, which is petty and can't stand up to the public. When Madam Fu heard what I said, she shook her head and said that no matter how favored a girl is in her natal family, she still has to serve her parents-in-law and take care of her husband's sister-in-law when she arrives at her husband's family. It doesn't make sense to live separately from her parents-in-law as soon as she enters the family. She also said that Le Mei and you are good friends, so there is no need to worry about the problem of getting along between the sister-in-law and the sister-in-law."

Mingyu was relieved and couldn't help laughing. If nothing unexpected happened, she would follow Sima Hong and it was unlikely that she would stay in the capital to accompany her parents. Naturally, she hoped that her future sister-in-law would be sensible and polite, love Xu Mingye, respect Xu Changqian and Madam Xu, and that the family could live happily together even without her.

When Sima Hong got home, he first found Bixi and asked, "During the time I was away, did Madam have any contact with the Dengguo Mansion?"

Bixi nodded. "Since coming to the capital, the Madam has always lived in seclusion. After you left, she only went to Duke Deng's mansion twice. Each time, she chatted with the Madam for a while and then came back."

Sima Hong's expression did not change, he nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

Looking at Sima Hong's back, Bixi opened her mouth and couldn't help but say, "My Lord, the Second Mistress..."

Sima Hong, who had already turned around and walked a few steps, turned around and smiled faintly: "I know what's going on."

Miao was waiting for him to have lunch. The food in front of her was getting cold. Seeing him come back just now, Miao was a little dissatisfied. "He has only been home for a few days, and he ran out early in the morning without telling me where he was going."

Sima Hong smiled and did not answer Miao's words. He washed his hands in the basin brought by the maid, dried them, and then sat down next to Miao and asked, "Mother, have you explained everything to the Deng family? It seems to me that they have some misunderstandings about us."

Miao's expression became a little unnatural. "What do you want to clarify? I just went to talk to Mrs. Deng twice, and we talked about trivial matters."

Sima Hong smiled earnestly, his attitude was gentle but with an irresistible persistence, "Mom, won't you cause people to misunderstand if you do this?" Even if you didn't mention marriage at all, with such an ambiguous attitude, others would think that you have taken a fancy to the girl and want to marry her, but because your son is not around, you cannot settle down and can only maintain the relationship by visiting each other.

"What misunderstanding?" Miao became angry. "I'm doing this for your own good." The girl from Deng's family came from a good family, looked delicate, and had a gentle and polite personality. She was a perfect match for her son.

Sima Hong lowered his head and smiled. Thinking of Mingyu being angry with him because of this matter, a trace of annoyance flashed through his heart. "I have said many times that I will not marry a girl from the Deng family. I can't even remember what she looks like. Madam, if you want to do this for my own good, go and make it clear with the Deng family and stop interfering in this matter."

Miao was also anxious. She put down her chopsticks and said loudly, "I know what you are thinking. If she has you in her heart and is willing to wait for you, I won't say anything. Since you like her, take her. But now she is going to marry that Lu Hao. Why are you still waiting for her?"

"No, she won't marry Lu Hao." Sima Hong smiled confidently. The little girl liked him. Thinking of the kiss and hug this morning, the wonderful feeling of hugging and kissing still remained on his mouth and in his arms, and his face couldn't help but feel slightly hot.

Miao looked at her son who was obsessed with this matter and sighed heavily. What a foolish son! Both of her sons were infatuated and not like their father at all. She originally thought that only her eldest son was like this, but she didn't expect that her youngest son would follow in his footsteps. Is this his nature

At night, Mingyu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. The hot and tingling feeling of Sima Hong's kiss still lingered on her lips, and the place on her face where Sima Hong had kissed her was also burning. Mingyu was so embarrassed and annoyed that her expression seemed to be angry and also seemed to be smiling. Finally, she pulled the quilt over her head in a huff. How hateful!

The next morning, Xu Mingye went out to report to the government office. When he opened the door, he saw Sima Hong carrying two heavy wooden boxes in his hands. He was probably a little surprised that the door opened suddenly. After a moment of surprise, Sima Hong smiled and said, "Mingye, you are going out so early?"

Xu Mingye looked him up and down, ignoring Sima Hong's flattering smile, and his eyes fell on the wooden box in Sima Hong's hand, "What are you doing here?"

Sima Hong smiled and said, "I was delayed by some things in the past two days and didn't have time to visit my father-in-law and mother-in-law. I came here specially to visit them today." As he said that, he was about to go forward and enter the door without waiting for Xu Mingye to invite him.

Xu Mingye quickly stopped him, stood at the door with his arms folded, blocking the way, and said indifferently: "My Lord, have you come to the wrong door? Who are your father-in-law and mother-in-law? Duke Deng's Mansion is not here!"

This fool has cultivated a thick skin. He has not forgotten that Deng Zhenzhu bid a bill of 1,000 taels of silver in front of Mingyu to humiliate his sister.
