With a reasonable explanation and an extra betrothal gift, Tan Yongqing's resentment completely dissipated, and he no longer wanted to make things difficult for his prospective son-in-law.
After a lively but decent wedding reception, the wedding team successfully picked up the bride, Tan Xian'er.
On the way back, everyone had smiles on their faces. Li Jie and Tan Xian'er rode a horse together in front, and the wedding team followed behind them, knocking and banging all the way back.
"Xian'er, I have wronged you today."
Feeling the heat coming from her ears, Xian'er's face suddenly turned red. Fortunately, they were walking at the front and no one noticed this scene. Otherwise, Xian'er would have been eager to find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
After all, this action is so intimate that it's not embarrassing.
thump!
thump!
Tan Xian'er felt her heart beating wildly, as if a stream of heat rushed straight into her forehead, and her whole body felt dizzy, as if she was going to faint in the next second.
At the same time, she secretly complained about Li Jie.
'How embarrassing!'
'Everyone is watching!'
'How could Brother Chuanwen do this!'
On the other side, although Li Jie couldn't see Tan Xian'er's front face, he suddenly realized when he saw Tan Xian'er's red ears.
This little girl is so shy.
Li Jie neglected this point.
After all, times are different, and now is not the future. In the future, let alone biting your ears in front of everyone, or even kissing passionately on the street, it would not be a big deal.
But in the late Qing Dynasty, biting one's ears in front of outsiders seemed a bit too intimate.
What's more, Xian'er is still a young girl, how has she ever experienced such a battle?
Thinking of this, Li Jie immediately stepped back a little.
However, when he retreated, Tan Xian'er felt a little bit lost in her heart for some reason.
That tingling feeling was something she had never experienced before, and it suddenly disappeared. She seemed to be a little reluctant to let go.
But this feeling went away as quickly as it came, and Tan Xian'er cursed herself secretly.
'Tan Xian'er, Tan Xian'er, you are so shameless!'
'Surprisingly... unexpectedly...'
The words that followed were so embarrassing that even in her heart, Tan Xian'er didn't want to reveal them.
After a while, Tan Xian'er's expression returned to calmness, and she responded in a voice as quiet as a mosquito's.
"Brother Chuanwen, I am not aggrieved. As long as I can follow you, even if it means squatting under the cold stove to drink cold water, I will accept it in my heart."
"Don't worry, I will never let you drink cold water with me. There will be mountains of gold and silver, and there will be a lot of cattle and sheep."
Sensing the heat coming from her ears again, Tan Xian'er's face turned red again.
Even though Tan Xian'er thinks that 'Brother Chuanwen' is bragging, in her eyes, no mountain of gold, silver, or a flock of cattle and sheep can be worth this promise.
At this moment, her heart was full of sweetness, and she just felt so happy, so happy.
If there were no outsiders from the wedding team present, Tan Xian'er would have wanted to shout loudly and roar at the top of her lungs to show the joy in her chest.
Behind him, Li Jie could clearly feel that Tan Xian'er's breathing was getting heavier and faster, and her whole body became even more weak and boneless as she fell into his arms.
In addition, Tan Xian'er's feeling seemed to have become a little higher, her whole body was hot, and holding her was like holding a small stove.
"Brother Chuanwen, I believe in you!"
Li Jie smiled when he heard this. He knew that Tan Xian'er didn't really believe it. Considering her reaction, let alone gold and silver, even if Li Jie said he wanted to be emperor in the future, she would still believe it.
After all, love makes people wise. No matter what the lover says, the other party will believe it.
But Tan Xian'er is afraid that she doesn't know that Li Jie is not bragging, but stating a fact, a fact that will definitely come true in the future.
With his ability, it is no problem to have mountains of gold and silver, and a flock of cattle and sheep.
Now that he has come to this turbulent era, Li Jie will naturally not set his goals so low. These external things are just accessories in the process.
Of course, Li Jie will definitely not tell these things to his mouth, because if he did say it now, no one would believe it.
In the eyes of others, Zhu Kaishan was already a great hero, with a far-reaching reputation.
However, what can even the great hero Zhu Kaishan do?
Wasn't he sentenced to death by the Qing government, so that he couldn't return home and had to flee?
Zhu Kaishan didn't even dare to say anything about mountains of gold and silver, but you, a young boy, dare to make bold statements?
If others knew it, they would die laughing!
Laugh at Li Jie for being self-righteous and self-righteous!
…
…
After playing and beating all the way, the wedding team hurriedly and slowly arrived at the boundary of Zhujiacun before the auspicious time.
Just as everyone was approaching the village entrance, Zhu Chuanwu suddenly patted the horse's butt and rushed to the front of the team. In the blink of an eye, he passed Li Jie and accelerated towards the village entrance.
"Here comes the bride!"
"Here comes the bride!"
Zhu Chuanwu galloped his horse while shouting "here comes the bride". He did this not to show off his superb riding skills, but to remind the people at the entrance of the village not to forget to set off firecrackers later.
At the entrance of the village, Wen's mother saw Zhu Chuanwu looking shaky, as if he was about to fall off his horse at the next moment, and her heart tightened immediately, and she hurriedly shouted.
"Chuanwu, slow down! Slow down!"
law!
law!
On horseback, Zhu Chuanwu heard his mother's voice, and immediately tightened the reins in his hands and stopped the horse steadily at the entrance of the village.
"Hey, mother, look, my riding skills are not bad, right?"
After stopping, Zhu Chuanwu scratched his head and said proudly.
However, Wen's mother didn't think that her son's riding skills were very good. She just said something about Zhu Chuanwu with a straight face.
"Who told you to ride like this? Do you know how dangerous it is?"
"ah?"
"Don't you know how capable you are?"
If today was not a happy day for her eldest son, Wen's mother would have grabbed Zhu Chuanwu's ears and taught him a harsh lesson on the spot.
Although Zhu Chuanwu is a bit of a "lucky guy", there are still people he is afraid of in this family.
First of all, Zhu Kaishan, who has fists as big as cattail leaf fans, is one, and secondly, Wen Ta Niang is also one.
If he had to choose the person Zhu Chuanwu was most afraid of among the two people, then this person would definitely be Wen Tama.
Although Wen's mother was usually kind and gentle, Zhu Chuanwu was secretly afraid that his mother would get angry.
Of course, getting angry here refers to getting angry in the true sense.
This time, Wen's mother was just a hair away from getting angry. Apparently, Zhu Chuanwu also noticed this. He quickly got off his horse and whispered.
