at noon, the green shade lingered and the air was cool.
at the xu familyâs dining table, the atmosphere was particularly strange. old mrs. xu and mother xu kept filling xu yufeiâs bowl with soup.
â this is old liâs free-range chicken. itâs very nutritious. drink more. â the old lady looked at her happily. as an elder, even if she didnât say it, she always had the thought of holding a great-grandson in her heart.
âyes.â xu yuanfei lowered her head and could feel her fatherâs burning gaze. â dad, have some chicken leg. â
she picked up a piece of meat for her father.
xu zhengfeng snorted coldly. his expression clearly said, â donât even think about getting rid of me with a chicken leg. â
âtheir child has already registered for marriage, what else do you want? as an elder, canât you be more magnanimous? who are you showing that long face to?â elder xuâs face was full of disdain.
itâs fine if you donât get a marriage certificate, but itâs legal. why are you so tensed up?
in fact, xu zhengfeng understood his fatherâs intention, but he felt aggrieved. he had raised his daughter for more than 20 years, but she was on his side. if they were a little braver, they might have eloped.
rather than saying that she was angry at jing hanchuan, it would be better to say that she was angry at herself and hated herself for not protecting her daughter well.
âsecond uncle,â xu shunqin looked at him and sighed. then he ladled a bowl of soup for him.
xu zhengfeng tilted his head and looked at him. his eyes suddenly lit up.âshunqin, youâre not young anymore, are you?â
xu shunqin was stunned.
âwhy donât you find a girlfriend yet? yuanfei has already gotten her marriage certificate. why havenât you done anything?â
â donât be too picky. if thereâs a suitable one, go around. donât wait for your sister to get married and have children. youâll still be single. â
âyouâre too demanding, child.â
â¦â¦
xu shunqin didnât know what was going on. why did the firepower suddenly focus on him? what did it have to do with him?
xu zhengfeng could not say anything about jing hanchuan and xu yuanfei, so he could only point his finger at a single man.
jing hanchuan lowered his head and ate. he was still grateful to his brother-in-law for taking all the fire for him. xu shunqin, on the other hand, was depressed. he was being urged to get married when he was serving him soup?

xu yuanfei had her lunch. she was probably too tired last night, so she leaned against the bed and fell asleep.
she had a strange dream where a little boy tugged at her clothes and called her â mom â. she woke up abruptly and saw that it was already sunset. jing hanchuan had borrowed an old book from elder xu and was sitting by the window, reading it. he turned his head and looked at her.
âyouâre awake?â
xu yufeiâs forehead was covered in sweat.
jing hanchuan put his hand down, sat on the bed, and reached out to help her wipe her sweat. the weather was hot during the day, but it was very cold at night. her clothes were wet with sweat, and the hot tide stuck to her body, making her feel very uncomfortable.
âso what?â he smiled faintly. â weâve already registered our marriage. if youâre pregnant, you can have it. itâs not illegal. â
in fact, jing hanchuan had thought about this before. he didnât want to have a child so early, but if he was pregnant, he would definitely want it.
xu yuanfei reached out and hugged him. â iâm just a little scared. â
âwhat are you afraid of? iâm here.â he lowered his head and kissed the top of her head. â do you want to take a shower? letâs go out for a walk. â
âyes.â
âthen iâll help you find a change of clothes.â
when xu yuanfei took the clothes, she realized that he had found himself a pair of long pants and long sleeves. he was ready to die from the heat on this day.
âthis ...â
before jing hanchuan could finish his sentence, xu yufei bit his lip and went into the bathroom.
after entering the bathroom, she even checked on the safety period and the morning after pills. after thinking about it, she gave up on the idea.
this place was too small. there was only a pharmacy and a small clinic. if she went to buy medicine, her family would probably hear about it immediately. there were almost no secrets here.
however, the two of them went out for a walk and bought some family planning supplies in the only supermarket in the area.
when it was time to pay the bill, xu yuanfei was embarrassed and did not dare to look at the salesgirl.
âi know, iâm just preparing.â jing hanchuan did not plan to do anything to her tonight, and xu zhengfeng did not drink. she was afraid that she would not be a complete person when she returned to the capital.
after the two of them returned to their room, jing hanchuan had nothing to do, so they chatted in the group.
at that time, duan linbai was loitering in the group. when he heard that jing hanchuan had gone to the countryside where the signal was not good, he was bold enough to show off in the group.
the man in love: [ ... you guys be reasonable, is it my fault that hanchuan exposed this? ]
[ he doesnât tell us anything every time, just like last time when i didnât know about his brother-in-law. ]
[ iâm being kind, but this guy is trying to sink me into the pond. my heart is about to jump out of my chest. ]
â¦â¦
then, the system prompted that jing hanchuan had sent him a red packet. it was called [ comfort your little heart. ]
at that time, duan linbai was at the back door of xu jiamuâs neighborhood, waiting for her to pack her luggage. the two of them were about to return to the capital when he saw the message. his body shook!
holy shit.
was this guy crazy? sending him a red packet?
he trembled and didnât dare to order.
jing hanchuan asked, [ what are you doing? ] [ didnât you say that i gave you a scare when you received the red packet? ]
[ hanchuan, did something happen to you in the countryside? ] the man in love asked. [ did master xu kick your head? ]
if she wasnât out of her mind, why would she suddenly send him a red packet? he even consoled him?
it was too horrifying.
[ iâm in a good mood, so iâm just not going to argue with you. ]
as soon as he said this, the people in the group understood.
what else could make him happy? it was most likely that he had a license.
fu chen replied, [ congratulations, your wish has been fulfilled. are you happy now? ]
[ not very happy? ]
[ oh? ]
[ apart from marriage, you also have to consider the issue of children. ]
fu chen clenched his phone. what was this guy showing off to him?
youâre taking advantage of me?
he was simply shameless.
[ iâll be back in the capital the day after tomorrow. letâs have dinner together. ]
because fu sinian and yu manxi had also returned to the capital at this time, they could take advantage of this day to get together.

Ning County
duan linbai was still hesitating on whether to open the red packet when he saw xu jiamu quickly walking over with his luggage. he pushed open the door and got out of the car to pick her up.
he took the bag from her hand with familiarity, but he saw that the corners of her eyes were a little red.
he didnât have to think too much to know that a conflict must have broken out at home. he didnât ask further and held her hand. â letâs go back. â
âyes.â
after getting in the car, xu jiamu didnât say much. he leaned against the car window and slept for half an hour before he felt more comfortable.
âhave you settled your household registration?â duan linbai was simply trying to find a topic to talk about.
âyes.â
â my friend asked me out for dinner the day after tomorrow. he asked me to bring my girlfriend along. do you want to come? â duan linbai had to inform her in advance and discuss it with her.
âyour friend?â
â youâve met most of them. heâs married and wants to treat us to a meal. letâs go together. i also want to use this opportunity to introduce you to my friends. â
xu jiamu glanced at duan linbai. â do you really like me and want to continue walking down this path with me? â
she was very clear about the gap between the two families. she was afraid that the duan family would not be able to tolerate the foul atmosphere in her family.
duan linbai hadnât gotten on the highway yet. he parked the car by the side and looked at her seriously. â what do you mean? â do you think iâm just playing around?â
he looked hurt and aggrieved as he anxiously stomped his feet. xu jiamu didnât expect such a big reaction from him and was stunned. â i ... â
âyou want to deny it now?â
âha?â
xu jiamu was startled. get a room? âwe just stayed in the same hotel. nothing happened between us.â
âif this was in ancient times, you would have to be responsible for me even if i held hands, let alone getting a room!â
xu jiamu couldnât keep up with his logic at all. he kept saying things that didnât follow normal logic. this made her, a science student who paid the most attention to thinking, a little confused.
âdonât you know whether i like you or not?â
duan linbai suddenly grabbed her hand and placed it on his chest.
âcan you feel it? my heart is beating!â
xu jiamu raised his brows and muttered, â âif the heart rate is too high, it will easily lead to heart failure,â
duan linbai had just prepared a speech, but his face and neck turned red from her words.
xu jiamu chuckled, then suddenly reached out and grabbed his clothes. caught off guard, duan linbaiâs entire body crashed into him ...
he was kissed by her!
duan linbaiâs heart felt a little smug, but he felt that there was something wrong with this action. she was a girl, so she wouldnât be a little rude.
damn it, that doesnât stop me from liking it!
âmu zi, if you donât feel safe, we can register our marriage when we return to the capital.â duan linbai coughed. his tone was a little weak, as if he was half-joking.
