"Uh... hiccup~"
Reeking of alcohol, Xu Jian stood in front of Hui Niang. He had just opened his mouth when he let out a loud burp.
Hui Niang covered her nose and said, "Brother Xu, how much did you drink? Go back and rest, you still have to deliver goods tomorrow."
After saying that, Hui Niang continued tidying up the courtyard.
Xu Jian snatched the broom from Hui Niang's hand and began sweeping the floor in silence.
After quickly cleaning up, he asked, "Is there anything else to do?"
Hui Niang: "That's all. Go back to sleep now. I'm going to sleep too."
Xu Jianchu remained motionless.
Hui Niang had no choice but to go around her, but whichever way she went, Xu Jian went too.
Hui Niang looked at Xu Jian strangely: "Brother Xu, what are you doing? Are you drunk?"
Xu Jian simply closed his eyes and quickly said, "Hui Niang, I like you, I want to marry you, and my younger sister and mother both agree. What about you? Will you marry me?"
Hui Niang was surprised. How could she not have noticed Xu Jian's feelings for her?
However, given her background and past, she was not a good match for Xu Jian.
With Xu Jian's current wealth and status, plenty of girls in the village would be willing to marry him.
Besides, Xu Qing and Wen Shi would never agree to that.
Over time, Xu Jian let it go and figured it out, so he pretended not to know anything.
Never thought...
"What do you like about me? My beautiful appearance? I'm already 24 years old, how long can that last?"
"Brother Xu, a relationship between us is unrealistic, especially since I'm a slave. You deserve a better girl."
With the effects of the alcohol, Xu Jian only noticed Hui Niang's mouth chattering incessantly, but he couldn't make out what she was saying.
I shook my head, clearing my head a bit, but all I heard was, "You deserve a better girl."
"I don't want any better girl, I only want you. I really like you."
The soft moonlight shone on Xu Jian, whose expression was serious and whose voice was somewhat hoarse from drinking.
The night was alluring, and Hui Niang felt a strange itch in her ears as she listened.
However, she was telling the truth; she was not good enough for Xu Jian, and she couldn't hold him back.
"Brother Xu, I'll pretend you never said that, and please don't say it again. Go to sleep early."
After saying that, Hui Niang ran away.
Xu Jian tried to stop Hui Niang, but the wine had a strong aftereffect.
He felt as if his tongue was tied in knots, making it difficult to speak clearly, and his reactions became sluggish.
Seeing Hui Niang run out of the courtyard and say what she wanted to say, Xu Jian didn't want to give up this opportunity.
He chased after Hui Niang, and as he walked, Hui Niang suddenly turned into three, each in a different place.
"Hui, Hui-niang, have you become a fairy?"
Xu Jian rubbed his eyes, and the three Huiniangs turned into one again, waving at him.
Xu Jian said happily, "Hui Niang, you agreed?"
Hui Niang, her face flushed, nodded shyly.
Xu Jian felt a surge of heat rush to his head, and he followed Hui Niang forward in a daze.
After turning a corner, Hui Niang disappeared again. Xu Jian searched everywhere and saw that Hui Niang had somehow walked outside the door again.
He then followed them out.
As Hui Niang's figure receded into the distance, Xu Jian hurriedly started running.
Aunt Chen's house is also rebuilding its toilet, so the outhouse in the house is temporarily unusable. Daya has to come out and find a secluded place to use the toilet.
After using the restroom, I was walking home when I suddenly heard footsteps behind me. It was dark and quiet all around.
Da Ya was already nervous, and now she was so frightened that she didn't dare to look back and ran away as fast as she could.
Xu Jian called out urgently, "Hui Niang, why are you running? I just wanted to say a few words to you and then go back. Don't misunderstand."
Da Ya froze in her tracks. It sounded a bit like Xu Jian's voice. Was he calling her?
She mustered her courage and turned around, and by the moonlight, she could see that the person who had come was indeed Xu Jian.
Daya's heart leaped with joy. Could it be that this person had finally realized how good she was to him and regretted his decision? Was he deliberately waiting for her here?
Daya stood there, waiting for Xu Jian to come over.
Seeing that the person had stopped, Xu Jian quickened his pace and ran to "Hui Niang".
After calming his breathing, he said:
“Huiniang, even though you have no relatives left, I will still ask a matchmaker to propose marriage to you.”
All the necessary procedures will be followed without exception. You must trust me.
Daya felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her from head to toe, and she couldn't utter a single word.
Seeing that "Huiniang's" face immediately turned ugly, Xu Jian hurriedly apologized:
"Don't be angry. Did I say something wrong? I'm bad with words. Tell me and I'll definitely correct myself."
Daya looked at Xu Jian, and a thought suddenly popped into her mind. She asked softly, "Look carefully, who am I?"
Xu Jian didn't know why "Hui Niang" would ask such a question, but when facing his beloved, he answered without hesitation: "Hui Niang."
Daya chuckled self-deprecatingly, realizing that she, an innocent and upright young woman, was no match for a servant.
She was a widowed servant with a child who had lost her husband.
A gentle smile returned to Daya's face as she placed her hands on her belt and slowly untied it, tempting her:
"Brother Xu, don't you like me? Let me see just how much you like me."
Once she and Xu Jiansheng have consummated their relationship, what will Xu Jiansheng do then?
Thinking about the interesting expression Xu Jian might make tomorrow, Da Ya felt a surge of joy.
Didn't you look down on her?
Isn't it true that they'd rather like a widow than her?
The moment the belt was untied, a pair of large hands grabbed Da Ya's hand.
Xu Jian said with restraint, "Hui Niang, wait a little longer. I need to give you a proper status first."
Da Ya was furious. This guy is such a blockhead! No wonder he's so old and still can't find a wife.
"Anyway, you promised to marry me, so I believe you won't lie to me. Come on, Brother Xu."
Xu Jian was so moved he almost cried. "Hui Niang" trusted him so much, he couldn't afford to offend her.
He stepped forward, hesitated for a few seconds, and then took "Huiniang's" hand.
"Huiniang, I'll ask a matchmaker to propose to you tomorrow, and we'll get married the day after tomorrow. Don't rush. Let's go back and rest first."
Ok?
Xu Jian rubbed the small hand in his hand and felt that it was different from the Hui Niang he had accidentally met before.
The hand in my hand is incredibly rough, even a bit uncomfortable.
Sensing Xu Jian's actions, Da Ya sneered inwardly: What a hypocrite, pretending to be so serious.
Going back with him is fine too; that way, when I wake up tomorrow, he'll be even less likely to run away.
Daya grasped Xu Jian's hand in return and said sweetly:
"Okay, let's go back then. But are Xu Qing and the others asleep? It wouldn't be good if they saw us going back like this."
Xu Jian felt an even stronger sense of unease. Why would Hui Niang call his younger sister by her first name?
Hui Niang used to call Xiao Mei "Master," and now she calls her Xiao Mei just like them. When has she ever called her by her real name?
But the person in front of her was unmistakably "Huiniang".
Xu Jian thought for a long time, but his mind was a complete mess. Maybe he had drunk too much. It seems he should drink less alcohol in the future.
"My younger sisters should be asleep by now, let's hurry back."
