Chapter 411: The Righteous Senior Brother Who Is About to Fall into Devilhood, Your Wife Is Here 24
Here, Wang Manfu returned home in a daze. He always felt that Feng Sheng didn't like him.
Especially since the Immortal had just held Feng Sheng's hand, and the Immortal was also a man, at that moment, he felt that the Immortal didn't seem to like him. Moreover, as a man, he also had a feeling that the Immortal seemed to have feelings for Feng Sheng.
He shook his head and quickly threw the thought out.
Immortals are immortals, how could they be attracted by mortals?
He looked at the box in his hand. Perhaps he was too rude and impolite today. Feng Sheng didn't know him before, so she naturally felt embarrassed for him to give her something for no reason.
"Sister-in-law, there's a letter from Shuanzi's mother."
Wang Manfu returned to his home and was about to push the door open when he heard Aunt Sun's voice coming from inside the house.
Wang Manfu stopped where he was for a moment, even feeling a little nervous. He was afraid of disturbing the people inside, so he just stood outside the door and eavesdropped.
"What did the Feng family say?"
Aunt Sun looked a little embarrassed: "The Feng family refused."
Outside the door, Wang Manfu felt like the sky was falling when he heard this.
He couldn't believe it. How could he refuse? He was the most respectable man in Xiaofeng Village. So many girls in the village wanted to marry him and enjoy a happy life! Why would Feng Sheng refuse him?
Wang Manfu felt extremely embarrassed at this moment. He threw the box in his hand to the ground and ran away.
In the house, the Queen Mother and Aunt Sun were tending to the firewood, and they didn't hear the noise outside. Especially after hearing Aunt Sun's words, the Queen Mother was furious and raised her voice unconsciously:
"Rejected?! Our Manfu is young and promising. Even if the girl from the Feng family is pretty, she is already 20 years old. Her parents are even dead. How can our Manfu not be worthy of her!"
Aunt Sun was embarrassed. She didn't understand why the Feng family rejected such a good marriage. But thinking of what Lin had said to her, she sighed and said:
"Don't be angry, sister-in-law. The Feng family knows that Manfu is a good person, but you also know that Sheng's father only has one daughter, and her father's branch cannot be cut off. The Feng family... the Feng family wants Sheng's future child to have the surname Feng."
"No!" Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother immediately refused and shook her head. Even if a child takes the woman's surname, wouldn't people say that he is marrying into the woman's family? Will her son still have shame in the future? She waved her hands quickly: "Forget it, forget it. I will give Man Fuxiang a girl of the right age later, and the Feng family will be fine."

On the Feng family side.
Qi Yue has caught up with Sheng Huan.
However, he just held the little yellow flower, looked at her, and smiled gently.
Those eyes were like a deep whirlpool that seemed to be able to suck people in.
The blush on Sheng Huan's face had not faded. She was even more at a loss when he looked at her like that. She just took the sword and started practicing in the yard. While she was practicing, every time she looked at him inadvertently, she would meet his eyes that were smiling and almost burning.
The man stood aside, tall and slender, stroking the yellow flowers with his bony fingers, giving a feeling of cautiousness and lingering affection.
His eyes can speak.
Finally she couldn't stand it anymore and stopped: "Why are you looking at me?"
Qi Yue smiled, raised his eyebrows, and his righteous eyes became more gentle, free and unrestrained. He said: "Miss Feng's sword intent is very beautiful."
He suddenly raised the yellow flower in his hand and asked with a smile: "Miss Feng, can this flower be called Fengxin?"
"I, I don't know."
When she heard that, her peach blossom eyes froze, as if a moment of shame passed through her. Her feet became unsteady and she started waving the sword again.
Qi Yue looked at the woman's panic, touched his chest and smiled silently.
Under his palm, a piece of golden scale appeared faintly, shining brightly.
He approached the man whose back was turned toward him.
"Miss Feng."
When she turned around, he held her hand, and then, under her astonished eyes, the man placed something warm and cool flat on the palm of her hand.
"This, this is..." She looked at the palm of her hand. The white fingertips contrasted particularly well with the scales.
"This is a return gift to Miss Feng," he said.
Sheng Huan was stunned. Which family would give a reverse scale as a return gift? That's right, Sheng Huan saw that this scale was the reverse scale of a dragon.
Qi Yue didn’t know what Sheng Huan was thinking, nor did he know that she recognized the gift he gave her. Anyway, the moment he saw her for the first time, he was sure that she would be his partner.
He gently closed her palm: "Miss Feng, keep it."
When she closed her palms, the golden scales melted into her palms and disappeared.
She looked at him without saying anything. He also looked at her, with a particularly charming smile on his lips.
In the golden sunlight, the two looked at each other for a long, long time.
The skin of the two people touched, and it seemed like something was beating wildly.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
-
As for Wang Manfu, after hearing what Aunt Sun said, he was so angry that he didn't even say goodbye to his parents and walked straight back to town.
"Why do you reject me? Aren't my conditions good enough?"
"No other girl can match my conditions even with a lantern!"
"I am unwilling, why don't you want to marry me!"
Wang Manfu was so angry that he kicked the stone away. It was too dark and he didn't pay attention to his feet. He stepped on something and fell down. His arm was scratched by a branch and blood was dripping.
Wang Manfu wanted to climb up, but he couldn't. He got even angrier and slapped the ground hard: "Ah ...
"Why doesn't she want to marry me!" Wang Manfu yelled.
"…Do you want to marry her? I can help you."
In the dark night, a ball of black gas with red light rushed in front of Wang Manfu.
Wang Manfu was so frightened that he almost lost his soul.
"You, you are, a monster! Don't, don't come over here!"
The red light suddenly entered Wang Manfu's eyes. Wang Manfu's eyes were immediately filled with red light. His expression became dull, but in a flash, he returned to normal.
He stood up and moved his limbs very stiffly, making strange sounds.
"Since you want her to be your bride, I will help you."
-
Five days later.
As Grandma Feng's birthday is approaching, Sheng Huan plans to go to the town to exchange for some fine noodles.
This might be her last birthday spent with Grandma Feng in Xiaofeng Village. After this, the next time they meet would probably be in the dust, so naturally the ceremony had to be grand.
When Sheng Huan was about to go out, Qi Yue appeared in front of her.
The man was dressed in gold, and his noble and upright demeanor revealed a barely perceptible tenderness.
"I'll accompany you."
"Yeah." She nodded at him, her smile unable to hide her sweetness.
After they exchanged gifts that day, the two men resumed their previous distance and rules, acting out of affection and restrained by courtesy.
But the atmosphere is much different, with a sticky sweetness, perhaps, it is just a matter of breaking through that layer of window paper.
The Feng family also noticed that something was wrong with the two of them, but they didn't think much about it.
When they arrived in the town, Sheng Huan picked out some fine noodles and stopped when she passed a cloth shop.
"Master Qi, I'm going to buy some cloth."
"Yeah." Qi Yue followed Sheng Huan and they both entered the cloth shop.
The cloth shop not only sells cloth, but also ready-made clothes.
When Sheng Huan was choosing cloth, Qi Yue fell in love with a red skirt hanging there at first sight.
He thought that if Miss Feng wore it, it would look great.
"Sir, you are here with your wife to buy clothes." The shop owner's eyes were sharp. She immediately spotted a business opportunity and started to promote her clothes: "Sir, you have good taste. This Fengxia skirt is the most fashionable in the city. Your wife is so beautiful and has a great figure. I wonder how beautiful she will look in it. Sir, why don't you buy one for your wife? This dress is not expensive. It only costs three taels of silver."
Sheng Huan and Qi Yue were both a little embarrassed to be addressed by the boss lady. Qi Yue coughed lightly and put the silver on the table. He tried his best to remain calm and looked at Sheng Huan:
"Miss Feng, give it a try. It's Grandma Feng's birthday, and you'll be leaving here soon, so dress festively this time."
Sheng Huan was about to refuse, but upon hearing this, he immediately nodded and agreed: "I will return the money to you later."
Qi Yue just smiled. He didn't need her to pay it back because he had plenty of money. But he was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, so he didn't say much.
In the inner room, as soon as Sheng Huan and the proprietress came in, she secretly covered her mouth and nose. Sure enough, after a while, a puff of black smoke blew past silently, and she disappeared on the spot.
