Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

In Cheng Wan's study, Cheng Wan was holding a book, looking up blankly at Deng Xiong and Ji Mingzhu who were standing in front of the desk.

"What are you going to do?"

Deng Xiong had a fierce face and said solemnly: "We have to get married quickly!"

Cheng Wan blinked and turned his gaze to Ji Mingzhu.

The moment Ji Mingzhu and Cheng Wan's eyes met, she nodded immediately and repeated Deng Xiong's words very seriously: "We must get married quickly!"

Cheng Wan: "..."

Cheng Wan was a little confused.

She was reading a book when these two people came running over and said they wanted to get married quickly.

This is somewhat beyond her ability to handle.

Cheng Wan put down the book in his hand, stood up and walked around to the desk, led Deng Xiong and Ji Mingzhu to sit down, and poured them each a cup of tea.

"Tell me, what's going on? Why are you so anxious to get married all of a sudden?"

Cheng Wan could tell that Deng Xiong and Ji Mingzhu were not joking, nor were they doing this on a whim.

There must be something going on here.

"Ah Wan, Mingzhu's mother..."

"I'll say it myself!" Ji Mingzhu shook Deng Xiong's hand and interrupted Deng Xiong's speech.

Deng Xiong took Ji Mingzhu's chubby hand in his palm, and said with a simple and sweet smile: "Okay, then you tell me, tell me."

Cheng Wan noticed the expressions and actions of the two people opposite him, and let out a slight "tsk" sound of some toothache.

Are she and Gu Yan usually so affectionate?

no……

Ji Mingzhu did not give Cheng Wan much time to think freely. She used straightforward and frank words to recount as completely as possible what had happened in the Ji family from last night to this morning.

As Ji Mingzhu continued to narrate, Cheng Wan's expression became more and more solemn.

"Marquis Zhaoping, I don't want to stay with her anymore. I want to marry Sanxiong and be with him."

Ji Mingzhu's eyes were still clear, but there was a frightening indifference in that clarity.

This slightly silly girl also has good intentions.

And now, this heart is broken.

In order to protect herself, she chose to eliminate certain people and things from her heart.

This is her gift.

How many people are trapped in the hurt caused by their loved ones, unable to let go, unable to forget, and unable to give up.

Cheng Wan stared into Ji Mingzhu's eyes, his tone steady and calm: "Your mother wants you to marry my third brother as soon as possible. She must really care about you."

"I know." Ji Mingzhu nodded: "I heard what she said to my father last night, but I still don't like her."

Cheng Wan pursed his lips and did not respond immediately.

Ji Mingzhu became a little uneasy. She moved in the chair and looked at Cheng Wan anxiously.

"Marquis Zhaoping, don't you agree that Sanxiong and I should get married quickly? But I really don't want to stay in my house anymore. What I just told you is true. If you don't believe me, you can ask my father when he comes!"

Although Ji Mingzhu was not very smart, she understood that if Cheng Wan did not agree with her and Deng Xiong getting married quickly, then she would definitely not marry Deng Xiong soon.

"No." Cheng Wan shook his head, smiling, and said in a gentle voice: "I was just thinking about the happy events at home one after another, which made me a little too happy."

Ji Mingzhu was a little confused at first, but when he came to his senses, he happily shook off Deng Xiong's hand and loudly asked Cheng Wan for confirmation: "Zhao Ping Hou, do you agree?!"

"A Wan?" Deng Xiong also looked at Cheng Wan nervously and excitedly.

Cheng Wan nodded and said with a smile, "I agree. When Master Ji comes to your house after work today, my parents will discuss your marriage rules with Master Ji in detail."

As soon as Cheng Wan finished speaking, Deng Xiong and Ji Mingzhu immediately jumped up on the spot like children, holding hands and swaying back and forth, with smiles on their faces almost reaching their ears.

"Sanxiong, I'm going to marry you soon! Are you happy?"

"Yeah! Mingzhu, I'm happy!"

"I'm happy too!"

Cheng Wan: "..."

OK.

As long as they are both happy.

Deng Xiong and Ji Mingzhu left Cheng Wan's yard with the same silly smile on their faces, and Cheng Wan also strolled out after finishing reading the article he had not finished reading before.

She has to communicate with the adults at home about some things.

……

In Muyuan Hall where Old Lady Lin lived, Old Lady Lin, Cheng Daniu and Wang sat separately, waiting for Cheng Wan to explain to them what he wanted to tell them by gathering them together.

"Milk, daddy, mommy."

Cheng Wan, who arrived last, greeted Old Lady Lin, Cheng Daniu and Wang in turn.

Old Mrs. Lin was impatient, and she asked impatiently, "Have the results of the provincial examination come out?"

After asking, Old Lady Lin frowned and denied herself: "That's not right. I have asked someone to keep an eye on everything. If the results are out, there would be no news. It would also be impossible for it to be so quiet outside."

"The results of the provincial examination will be released tomorrow. I am here to discuss another important matter with you."

Cheng Wan found a seat for himself and sat down. He didn't keep anyone in suspense and got straight to the point: "Grandma, Dad, Mom, let's arrange the marriage between Third Brother and Miss Ji as soon as possible."

"what?"

Old Mrs. Lin and the other two expressed doubts at the same time.

"I say we should arrange the marriage between Third Brother and Miss Ji as soon as possible." Cheng Wan simply repeated what he had just said so that Old Lady Lin and the other two could hear it clearly.

Old Mrs. Lin and the other two looked at each other, all with confused looks on their faces.

In the end, it was Old Lady Lin who asked first with a question mark on her forehead: "Why?"

Yes, why?

The question that Old Mrs. Lin asked was also what Cheng Daniu and Wang wanted to ask.

They certainly didn't want to delay the marriage of Deng Xiong and Ji Mingzhu on purpose, but there was really no need to rush the marriage of Deng Xiong and Ji Mingzhu.

First, Deng Xiong and Ji Mingzhu are not too old, so it is normal for them to get married next year.

Second, Deng Xiong and Ji Mingzhu have been engaged for less than half a year, and generally the girl's family would like to keep their daughter for a while longer.

In short, according to the original plan of Old Lady Lin, Cheng Daniu and Wang, if the Ji family is willing, it would be just right to hold the wedding of Deng Xiong and Ji Mingzhu in May or June next year.

Cheng Wan sighed and told Old Lady Lin and the other two about the conflict between Ji Mingzhu and Madam Ji.

"That's roughly what happened. For more details, we'll have to wait until Master Ji comes in the evening and hear what he has to say.

From what I have observed, Miss Ji is probably really giving up on her mother."

Cheng Wan paused, and said in a low voice: "Maybe in Miss Ji's heart, she no longer has a mother."

The hall was quiet.

Cheng Daniu opened his mouth, his face showing a conflicted expression: "Mrs. Ji, Mrs. Ji is still really thinking about Miss Ji. After all, she is Miss Ji's biological mother."

"No matter how much you care about the child, you can't speak so harshly..." Wang frowned and uttered two words: "Meanwhile, you are not a good person."

"It's too mean, especially since Madam Ji never treats the other little one like that. With this comparison, how can Mingzhu not be sad? She's not heartless!" Old Mrs. Lin patted the coffee table next to her and continued, "Let's do it! Let's follow Madam Ji's wishes and arrange the marriage of Sanxiong and Mingzhu as soon as possible! This will save Mingzhu from being bullied at home every day!"

After saying that, Old Lady Lin looked at Cheng Daniu and Wang: "When Master Ji comes tonight, you two should have a good talk with him. He said it should be done as soon as possible, but the necessary things must be obtained, and the necessary procedures must be followed. The two children must not be wronged!"
