The sun was gentle but not hot. During this time, Xia Qianchen and Nangong Young Emperor did all the things a couple should do.
They went to watch a movie in a huge theater. When the hero and heroine kissed passionately, they also kissed each other in the dark.
They chased ostriches in the square, rode camels in the fields, and caught fish and shrimps in the mountain streams...
They cooked together, took walks, milked cows in the pasture, and even delivered a ewe themselves.
Every day is happy and full, and time flies by so fast.
Xia Qianchen tried her best to be calm, but there were times when she was so happy that she fainted.
Every time Young Emperor Nangong broke into a cold sweat and was scared to death.
But one thing is, no matter when Xia Qianchen opened her eyes, she saw him, and before closing her eyes, she saw him. They were inseparable, like inseparable shadows.
They talked about each other's past, and about their "future", their dreams, and their hobbies.
It seems like there is never enough to talk about.
Xia Qianchen has never tried to talk so much in a day, and sometimes her voice becomes hoarse when she talks about thirst.
They all seem to be chasing time, fearing that it will be too late before they finish what they want to say or what they want to do.
Ireland, a country without divorce, a hundred-year agreement.
Ireland is a country where divorce is prohibited - only death does us part.
Xia Qianchen never thought that in today's world, there are countries that prohibit divorce.
Irish law stipulates that men and women do not need to divorce after marriage. Men and women need to commit to each other in church when they get married:
【Only death separates us.】
Therefore, divorce for any reason (even if the spouse dies) is considered a breach of vows.
Irish people all get married in churches, and some people hold weddings in castles.
On the day that Xia Qianchen married Young Emperor Nangong, no guests were invited except Rhodes.
In the empty church, the priest read from the Bible and the dogma of Irish marriage.
Xia Qianchen wore a white gauze skirt, which complemented Nangong Young Emperor's white dress.
She rarely saw him wearing light-colored clothes.
He is extraordinary handsome and his strong aura remains undiminished.
She felt her heart beating wildly and her breathing suffocating. His hand held hers tightly, giving her strength and support.
While reciting the oath, she heard his deep voice swaying in the church:
"Not even death can keep us apart."
Xia Qianchen was slightly startled and her eyes widened.
Young Emperor Nangong said loudly in Irish again: Even death cannot separate us——
The whole huge church heard his loud voice in response.
The Irish priest was also slightly surprised.
Xia Qianchen saw the determination in Nangong Young Emperor's green eyes, and her eyes became moist.
The rough thumb slowly shed tears from the corners of her eyes.
Young Emperor Nangong whispered: "Don't make your eyes wet with tears."
Xia Qianchen bit her lip tightly. She felt happy, but that happiness was filled with sadness.
She and Nangong Young Emperor have begun to get used to the sadness in this kind of joy.
The happier she is, the sadder she feels. She feels that God is extremely cruel.
Unlike other countries that prohibit divorce, the Irish have created a marriage system that combines tradition and freedom with a high degree of wisdom!
When a man and a woman get married, they can negotiate the duration of the marriage relationship, which ranges from 1 year to 100 years. After the expiration of the term, if they have the intention to continue living, they can go through the extension registration procedures, otherwise the marriage relationship will be automatically terminated.
Xia Qianchen saw with his own eyes that Emperor Nangong wrote 100 years on it.
An 80-year commitment was extended for another 20 years.
Whether they were alive or not, he always stood firm in what he said.
Xia Qianchen believed that if the wedding date was 1,000 years or 10,000 years, he would write it down without hesitation.
"If there is a heaven," he whispered in her ear, "we can continue our marriage."
There is another intriguing thing in Ireland.
The marriage certificate is different depending on the wedding date.
Newlyweds who have been married for one year will receive two large marriage certificates as thick as an encyclopedia, which list the rights and obligations of both men and women item by item. It can be described as a complete set of regulations for family interaction.
The newlyweds who were married for 100 years received only a piece of paper with the blessing of the city's chief judge:
【——Dear Sir, Madam:
i don't know mine
left hand to right hand,
Right leg versus left leg,
left eye to right eye,
Right brain versus left brain,
What responsibilities and obligations should we assume?
In fact, they are originally a whole,
Existing only because of each other’s existence,
Be happy because of each other’s happiness.]
This is Ireland, that hundred-year promise.
"Young Emperor Nangong," Xia Qianchen held the note repeatedly, looked at it for a long time and asked, "I am your real wife in name now, right? I'm already married to you?"
Young Emperor Nangong hugged her from behind and intertwined their fingers.
In his heart, she was already his wife.
"Since death can't separate us," she said softly, "even if I die, I can't divorce you. I will always be with you, right?"
"Um."
"So, we have never been separated, including our children?"
Young Emperor Nangong paused and said nothing.
Xia Qianchen always hoped that Young Emperor Nangong could survive and experience more beauty in life. How easy is death?
But every time he talked about this topic, he remained silent.
She turned around and kissed him passionately.
He has a slightly hard chin with stubble, a high bridge of his nose, and deep-set eye sockets.
She felt his extremely hard desire.
For more than a month, no matter how much he wanted it, their most intimate relationship had been limited to hugs and kisses.
Xia Qianchen sent invitation messages many times and even took the initiative to tease him, but without success.
Xia Qianchen knew how much he cherished her.
"Tonight, do you want me to fulfill my duties as a wife?" She grabbed his hand and pressed it on her chest, eagerly getting close to him and rubbing against him.
Young Emperor Nangong gasped deeply and took two steps back.
He took her hand and pulled it down: "Qianchen."
"I want to fulfill my obligation to you." Xia Qianchen looked at him brightly.
I want to do anything for him, but I can't do anything. I'm so upset.
"Don't mess around!" He pressed her down and said, "Sleep."
