Chapter 426: Chapter 426
"Good boy, you’re ambitious!"
Yu Liulang nodded with satisfaction. He had always thought his niece and this Lu Family’s boy were quite a good match.
Now that the Lu Family’s boy made a promise in front of the whole family, he, as the uncle, couldn’t say much against it.
Yu Si Niang was also excited; her daughter finally had confirmed feelings with Fengzi.
Although marriage was still a long way off, at least the two of them were together now.
And Yu Si Niang believed her son-in-law would be Fengzi.
"Alright, alright, let’s not talk about this now, let’s eat first! Fengzi, you must have a drink with me today!"
Mu Dashan rarely took the initiative to invite someone for a drink, but as soon as he spoke, Yu Si Niang stopped him.
"What are you doing? You’re not well and you want to drink? Don’t you want your health?" Yu Si Niang scolded Mu Dashan with a playful eye roll.
But the reprimand was soft and gentle, hardly resembling a scolding.
"I’m just happy!" Mu Dashan explained with a red face.
"Even if you’re happy, you shouldn’t drink . You’re not well yet, and you’re still on medication. You can’t do that."
Yu Si Niang said while thoughtfully adding a cup of water for Mu Dashan.
"Fengzi, your uncle isn’t well, I’m not letting him drink. You should drink less yourself, don’t hurt your body!"
"Okay!" Lu Yuanfeng nodded slightly.
However, Mu Shuangshuang moved quickly, picked up the wine pot, and poured a small half cup for Lu Yuanfeng, then a little for herself.
"Shuangshuang, you..." Lu Yuanfeng got anxious and tried to take away Mu Shuangshuang’s cup.
"Fengzi, a little drink is fine, plus eating crayfish calls for some wine!"
As soon as Mu Shuangshuang finished speaking, Yuanbao and Little Zhi started to make a fuss, wanting to drink too.
Given their age, Mu Shuangshuang naturally didn’t allow it, but she dipped a drop with chopsticks for the two kids.
Watching the kids sticking their tongues out because of the spiciness, Mu Shuangshuang burst into laughter.
"Sister, you’re mean!" Little Zhi pouted in discontent.
"You’re just realizing this? It’s too late, our Little Zhi’s already turned into a little puppy from the spiciness!" Mu Shuangshuang replied.
At this, Little Zhi got so angry that she stomped her feet, affecting Lai Mi, who was eating shrimp shells next to her, stepped on his tail, making him cry out in pain.
For a moment, the kitchen was in chaos.
Nobody noticed Mu Xiaohan, who had taken a cup of wine for himself and drank alone, collapsing straight onto the bench after a cup.
By the time they discovered him, Mu Xiaohan had already fallen asleep.
After dinner, Mu Shuangshuang escorted Lu Yuanfeng back, with Yuanbao thoughtfully running ahead and disappearing from sight in a moment.
Lu Yuanfeng was in a good mood along the way, especially during dinner when he thought there’d be trouble after he confessed liking Shuangshuang, but things went unbelievably smoothly. Follow current novᴇls on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⚫𝙣𝙚𝙩
It seemed Uncle Dashan and Aunt Si were not against him being with Shuangshuang.
Lu Yuanfeng’s good mood rubbed off on Mu Shuangshuang. She couldn’t help but tease Lu Yuanfeng: "Fengzi, why didn’t my parents pose any challenges for you? Is it really okay for them to approve of you so easily?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Mu Shuangshuang spoke, Lu Yuanfeng nervously gripped her hand.
"Shuangshuang, I’ll be good to you for a lifetime!"
"If you want me to go east, I’ll never go west!"
"If you want me to fight, I’ll never back down!"
Lu Yuanfeng’s confession was simple and sincere, lacking flowery words, but those simple words made Mu Shuangshuang feel content.
Mu Shuangshuang didn’t speak, and Lu Yuanfeng thought she didn’t believe him, so he actually grabbed Mu Shuangshuang’s hand and placed it on his chest.
"Shuangshuang, I swear, I’ll never deceive you. If I do, may heaven strike me..."
"Fengzi, you can’t say the rest. If you lie to me, leave me, I’ll tie you up and torment you day and night, and when I’m tired of you, I’ll throw you away!"
Mu Shuangshuang deliberately put on a fierce front.
As expected, Lu Yuanfeng was amused.
The original tension vanished, but he refused to let go of her hand all along the way.
Under the moonlight, Mu Shuangshuang looked at the man beside her, his expression relaxed, the corners of his mouth gently curved into a smile.
Mu Shuangshuang knew that the road for them was long, and that even if they got married in the future, there would be many challenges to face.
But Mu Shuangshuang was confident.
In managing her life well and the future marriage!
When they reached Lu Yuanfeng’s home, Lu Yuanfeng was still reluctant to let go of her hand.
Mu Shuangshuang saw that it was getting late, and since she had to see her uncle off tomorrow, she thought it would be best to part ways with Fengzi early.
Who knew that before she could speak, Lu Yuanfeng spoke first.
"Shuangshuang, let me walk you back. It’s late, and I don’t feel safe letting you go alone."
Mu Shuangshuang suddenly had black lines all over her head; it was just now that Lu Yuanfeng had her escort him back, and now he wanted to walk her back.
Isn’t this like taking off your pants to fart, completely unnecessary?
But, she... liked it!
Mu Shuangshuang was filled with joy, letting Lu Yuanfeng hold her hand, retracing the path they just walked.
Since they had declared their feelings for each other, they were almost inseparable most days.
Of course, they both cherished this opportunity.
"Fengzi, I’m going in!" Mu Shuangshuang said.
"Alright, sleep early. Tomorrow, I’ll move the stone mill to my house. In the future, I’ll grind the mung beans, and if you need to exercise, we can find other ways that aren’t so tiring. Or how about I accompany you for a walk every evening after dinner?"
Lu Yuanfeng wanted to accompany Mu Shuangshuang for walks, partly out of his own selfish desires, so he could spend more time with Shuangshuang.
"Okay!" Mu Shuangshuang finally nodded.
Lu Yuanfeng looked at the petite and lovely person before him, his heart stirred, and he suddenly hugged her waist, planting a goodnight kiss on her.
Lu Yuanfeng moved quickly, and by the time Mu Shuangshuang reacted, he had already run off.
"Pfft!" Mu Shuangshuang couldn’t help but laugh.
"Such a silly boy!" Mu Shuangshuang shook her head with a smile, turning back into the house.
She hadn’t even had a chance to rest when Yu Si Niang anxiously rushed over.
"Shuangshuang, Xiaohan is in his room crying alone." Yu Si Niang said hastily.
"What? Why is he crying? Did he drink too much, have a headache, or is he feeling unwell?"
"I don’t know, he’s just crying there!" Yu Si Niang shook her head.
"Mom, why don’t you go rest, and I’ll go check?"
When Mu Shuangshuang said she’d check, she directly brought Mu Xiaohan out of the room, not wanting him to disturb others, and set him on two stools in the kitchen.
She grabbed a towel, prepared a basin of water, and after wringing it dry, handed it to Xiaohan.
"Are you having a headache, or is it too warm?"
It was indeed hot, but there was still a cool breeze at night, and after midnight, it would get cooler, maybe even needing a blanket.
