Chapter 13
The three of them sat in the yard for a while, looking at the stars in the sky and the cool moonlight, chatting casually for a while.

Ling Yexue stood up and prepared to say goodbye.

Li Chenguang also got up, "I'll see you off."

"You can pull it down."

Ling Yexue gave him a white look, "I won't leave as it's less than [-] meters away, why are you being polite to me?"

Ling Yexue took a few steps, then pointed at Li Chenguang, "Remember to do your homework and read your notes, do you know?"

"I know, I must remember this time." Li Chenguang nodded hastily.

"And weeds."

"It must be cut, it must be cut."

It's a pity that Ling Yexue just gave him a completely distrustful look, and finally gave Li Diexi a meaningful look, and left.

Instead of walking through the bushes this time, I went around the side of the house and left through the front door.

The design of the two villas is basically the same.

Ling Yexue returned to her small villa, gently opened the door, and saw her father sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV.

"Dad, I'm back."

"Ah."

Ling Yuanfeng looked a little old, with a severely aged face, wearing a pair of small glasses, holding a newspaper in his hand, sitting on the couch in the middle, looking a bit old-fashioned and majestic.

He nodded at Ling Yexue first, then turned his head, then turned back to look at Ling Yexue's skirt, "Why is the skirt torn?"

Ling Yexue sat on the low stool at the entrance, and answered while taking off her shoes, "I was accidentally scratched by a branch on the side of the road just now, I'll sew it up later, and I'll only wear it at home anyway."

"Well, be careful next time, it doesn't matter if the skirt is torn, don't hurt your legs."

Ling Yuanfeng was concerned at first, and then said earnestly, "Although you were directly recruited by Emperor Wu, you don't need to take an exam, so you can't be negligent. Read the books in the university early. The emperor's capital is full of the most powerful students in the country. I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up." schedule."

"I know, Dad."

"Well, do you have enough money? If you need to buy something, tell Dad."

"I know."

As soon as Ling Yexue took off her sandals and put on her slippers, her mother Zhou Shuhan came out of the kitchen wearing a scarf.

Zhou Shuhan has a plump figure, with the plumpness of a mature woman, and a graceful and charming body. Compared with her, she is a little older. In her 40s, she looks like Ling Yuanfeng, who is in her fifties or sixties. She is like a mature young woman. The heavy weight on her chest is vaguely You can see the future development direction of Ling Yexue.

Zhou Shuhan and Ling Yuanfeng went to that station together, giving people the feeling that Ling Yuanfeng seemed to be squeezed dry, with white hair, Zhou Shuhan became more and more moist.

In the past, Ling Yuanfeng was considered a well-known businessman. He married a beautiful wife who was envied by others, and he even had a cute, intelligent and talented baby daughter. Unfortunately, just one storm directly smashed his merchant ship to pieces.

Now I can only work as an editor in a newspaper office, with a monthly salary of four to five thousand.

Zhou Shuhan came out with a bowl of longan and lotus seed soup, "Chenguang took the strawberries, come here, try the longan and lotus seed soup that mom made for you, it's good for your brain."

"Ah."

Zhou Shuhan put the longan and lotus seed soup on the tea table, and called Ling Yexue to come over.

Ling Yexue was sitting on the floor in front of the tea table, with her legs bent, holding a spoon to scoop up rice, and blew the cool air over her delicate mouth.

Zhou Shuhan also sat down on the sofa next to her, staring at Ling Yexue's beautiful black hair on the back, which fell on the side of the tea table, protruding, protruding, and beautiful silhouette, and said with emotion, "As expected of me Daughter, she looks like me back then, she's getting more and more beautiful, and it's time to talk about marriage."

When Ling Yexue heard this, she unconsciously accelerated the speed of scooping up the spoon.

Due to the sharp drop in the population due to wars these days, the legal age of marriage has been raised to 18.

The empire advocates that girls who are 18 years old can talk about marriage and get married. They can start a family and study at the same time. There is also a credit bonus. The main goal is to develop in an all-round way and have more children.

Zhou Shuhan said, looked in the direction of Li Chenguang's house next door, and sighed, "That Li Chenguang, his parents were probably eaten by dragons."

Ling Yuanfeng smacked his lips when he heard it, made a "tsk", and looked at Zhou Shuhan with a frown.

Zhou Shuhan met his gaze unceremoniously, "Why, am I wrong? What kind of eyes do you have?"

Ling Yuanfeng frowned, "Why are you here again? Why are you cursing others?"

"It's been 6 years. What parent would leave their child at home and not come back for 6 years? They must be gone. Look at his relatives, the uncle and the uncle always run to his house, just look at two Children are easy to bully, do you want to leave that little real estate?"

"Okay, okay, we can't control this, don't talk about it."

"I don't care, what I mean is, don't worry about Xiaoxue. For so many years, we have taken care of their family enough, and we often call those two little ones to eat. Why, it depends on our family Xiaoxue for the rest of his life. Xiaoxue also The one who wants to marry is not, if you get so close, people will gossip, do you understand?"

"Look at what you said. At that time, it was decided to have a baby kiss. A man, how can you go back on your word."

"Will it be the same before then?"

"Once a gentleman says something, it's hard to follow, why..."

Zhou Shuhan's voice was amplified several times at once, and everyone outside Zhen's house could hear it clearly. She interrupted Ling Yuanfeng and said, "I used to think that his father, Li Yu, was also from the Li family, and he thought he was related to the city lord. Who would want to separate the two families? In the eighteenth generation, her mother, Feng Weixian, had an unusual temperament, and after checking, none of the nobles in the 36 cities in our country had the surname Feng."

"Now that the man is dead, he is poor and destitute, and the remaining house is still missed by his uncle and second uncle. Soon the house will be gone, and you still want our Xiaoxue to marry him?"

Zhou Shuhan pointed at Ling Yuanfeng's nose and scolded, "Why did you marry me? We will suffer together, right? You want your daughter to die."

"No, why are you like this? At the beginning, I was begging for nothing, and I said no. You insisted that the two children hit each other and wanted to be married, and the betrothal gift was accepted, but now you have regretted it?"

"What kind of dowry is that, it's just a broken clock."

"Everyone said it was a family heirloom, otherwise they wouldn't have worn Xiaoguang around his neck all the time,"

"Hey, a broken pocket watch that can't be repaired at all and won't move for hundreds of years. What do you think is a rare item? I asked my friend in the antique shop. It's worthless at all. It's something that no one picks up on the street. I suspect that they will trick us. Well, there are so many liars pretending to be aristocrats... Think about it, Li Chenguang has no car, no house, no repairs, no future, and drags a little sister, you want Xiaoxue to suffer for the rest of her life? Just for you What kind of man's promise?"

"It was you who said you wanted to get engaged, and now you are the one who said no."

"It's not that you are useless, who will take care of the family, who will pay back the house loan, relying on your monthly salary of several thousand, Xiaoxue and I would have starved to death, Xiaoxue has been so competitive and has opened up three orifices, the crystallization of secret skills, money... "

Ling Yexue was used to this kind of situation.

She didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, even though her mouth was still a little hot, she still raised her neck and quickly finished the lotus seed soup, then stood up and turned her back to Zhou Shuhan, "Mom, I'm done eating, let's go upstairs first."

After speaking, he walked quickly towards the stairs next door, as if he didn't want to stay for a moment.

Zhou Shuhan hurriedly followed, "Hey, Xiaoxue, I heard people say that Li Tianming, the son of the city lord, has been chasing you recently, and he is still chasing you very closely. I think he is pretty good, and he is the eldest son of the city lord. Haicheng, do you want to..."

Zhou Shuhan had just reached the stairs when Ling Yexue had disappeared at the corner of the second floor, and then there was a deafening "bang" sound of closing the door, which made the floor seem to be shaking.

"This kid... why are you closing the door so hard? Really, don't hurt your hand."

Zhou Shuhan came to the living room to clean up Ling Yexue's leftover bowl.

Ling Yuanfeng said unhappily, "Can you stop talking about this kind of thing in front of children in the future, it will have a bad influence."

Zhou Shuhan's voice immediately raised 180 degrees again, with her hands on her hips, and said, "No, don't you know now? You go to the newspaper office and sit on your butt all day. You are relaxed. You only have this salary for caring about your daughter. , do I need to worry about your success..."

As soon as the salary was mentioned, Ling Yuanfeng withered, muttering about "only women and villains are hard to raise", picked up the newspaper and covered his face, as if he didn't want to see Zhou Shuhan's face again for a second.

But this can't stop Zhou Shuhan's roaring voice and anger, and that mouth that outputs like a machine gun...

Just then, there was a slight knock on the door.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom".

Zhou Shuhan was stunned for a moment, and finally stopped talking, and finally gave Ling Yuanfeng a hard look, came to the entrance, dragged on a pair of pink slippers, and opened the door.

It was found that under the night, Li Chenguang was standing at the door alone.

Li Chenguang smiled at Zhou Shuhan, "Auntie, I forgot to bring the basket back after eating that strawberry just now. I washed it and brought it here. I don't know if I want it."

As he spoke, he handed over the small basket in his hand.

Zhou Shuhan's face-changing was as quick and efficient as a Saiyan's transformation, and she immediately put on a smile, took the basket and said, "Xiao Guang, come, come in and sit, come in and sit, have you eaten dinner yet?"

"Thank you, auntie, I have eaten."

Ling Yuanfeng also put down the newspaper, looked at Li Chenguang, as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile, "Xiao Guang, how are your grades recently?"

"It's okay, it's okay."

"Study hard, you know?"

"Well, I know, Uncle."

"If you have nothing to do, go to my uncle's house to play, we are all family."

"I will. It's late today, so I'll go back first."

Zhou Shuhan invited with a smile on her face, "It's already here, why don't you come in and sit down, come in and sit down."

Li Chenguang declined, "No need, thank you Auntie, Xixi is still waiting for me at home."

"Okay, then next time, come to Auntie's house to play next time."

"Ah."

As Li Chenguang turned around with a smile, Zhou Shuhan immediately closed the door...
