March 11th, Grain Rain, is a good day to get engaged, receive gifts, and pray for blessings. The Xu and Zheng families discussed it for several days and finally decided on this date.

The Xu family members were all smiles, and Mrs. Zheng was also happy that her children had found a good home. General Zheng was the only one who kept a straight face and drank glass after glass of wine.

It is not true that Zheng Xiao is dissatisfied with this marriage. In his opinion, marrying Xu Anheng is the best thing for his children. The two families know each other well, and the men of the Xu family do not have any concubines in the backyard. Compared to other families, there are fewer unpleasant things. The two children have grown up together and have a deep relationship. Xu Anheng has also watched him grow up, and his character is very upright. It really is a perfect marriage. It's just that - when he thought that the child he held in his hands was going to get married and become someone from another family, Zheng Xiao was still depressed and panicked, so he had to drink alone to relieve his boredom.

Xu Anheng knew that the master was not targeting him, and he could appreciate the master's love for his son, so he sat next to him and drank two more drinks with him. But Xu Anheng's drinking capacity was not as good as that of the battle-hardened Zheng Xiao. By the end of the drink, General Zheng's face turned a little red, but Xu Anheng was too drunk to walk straight, so he had to be helped out of the door.

"Drinking so much, I will definitely have a headache when I wake up tomorrow." Zheng Qingyan looked at Xu Anheng's drunken state, feeling a little distressed.

Xu Anheng was not drunk to the point of unconsciousness, but his family was around, so it was not easy to do anything extraordinary. He just squeezed Zheng Qingyan's palm with his wide sleeves: "I'm fine, don't worry."

A carriage was ready at the door, and Zheng Qingyan stopped talking to the drunkard and asked Qingshi to carefully help him get into the carriage. He also told Xia He to cook a bowl of sobering soup for him at night, let him drink it before going to sleep, and drink more while sleeping. Pay attention to his movements.

After saying a few words in detail, Zheng Qingyan realized that his mother and Mrs. Xu were looking at him with smiles in their eyes. He was immediately a little embarrassed, said something hastily, and went back to stand next to his mother.

Watching Xu Mansion's carriage getting further away, Zheng Qingyan and his mother looked at each other, then supported his father and walked back slowly. General Zheng was silent all the way. When he was approaching the door of the room, he patted his brother's hand and said, "Xu is a good boy. I feel relieved to leave you to him. It's just that people's hearts are fickle and things are unpredictable. Dad won't say much." , you just need to remember that if you are wronged or have a hard time, you can go home at any time, and your parents will always protect you. "

"I'll remember it, dad." Zheng Qingyan choked with sobs and helped someone into the house to sit down. He saw that his mother's eyes were also a little red, and she was tired of coaxing her by her side.

"Okay, it's getting late. Let's go get some rest early." Mrs. Zheng touched her brother's head and secretly felt sad. In the blink of an eye, the little glutinous rice dumplings surrounding her calling "Mother" were now there. I have grown up and will get married soon.

Zheng Qingyan lingered in his parents' house for a while longer. Seeing that the two of them had calmed down, he returned to his courtyard with relief. However, his mood was affected by what his parents said just now. He couldn't fall asleep for a long time. When he tossed and turned, his thoughts slowed down. Slowly drifted to Xu Anheng.

Xu Anheng didn't feel comfortable that night. He returned to the hospital feeling dizzy, and was given another bowl of hangover soup. The taste was just sour, but the main reason was that his stomach was a little uncomfortable after drinking, and his body was filled with a strong The smell of alcohol is really unpleasant.
