Of course, that had to depend on the opinions of the girl and her family. w.a.n.g Fenghua was also very satisfied with the girl. The more he looked at her, the more satisfied he was.
“Has your sister chosen her bridesmaids yet?” Su Xiaoxue asked. “I want to be a bridesmaid!”
“OK, I will tell your sister about it now!” Zhang Xiuying immediately decided for her. Even if she had already chosen them, she would have to change them. Could there be anyone more suitable than her future daughter-in-law?
“Oh Mom, you don’t have to worry about it. I will talk to my sister tomorrow,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
Su Xiaoxue was smiling happily at the side.
After lunch, the two of them went out for a walk.
“This is the first wedding I will be attending since I got sick,” Su Xiaoxue said.
“Really? Are you very happy?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Yes, I am elated,” Su Xiaoxue said.
“As long as you’re happy,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
When they got to the south of the village, they b.u.mped into Jia Zizai. He was holding a cigarette in his mouth, humming a tune, and walking slowly. After seeing the two of them, he quickly walked over. His eyes lit up when he saw Su Xiaoxue.
“What a beautiful woman,” he said. “h.e.l.lo, Sir.”
“Hey, how are you?” w.a.n.g Yao asked
“Who is this? Is she Sir’s wife?” Jia Zizai asked.
“What?” Su Xiaoxue was shocked. At first, she had thought the way he had addressed her was rather strange. After careful consideration, two red splotches appeared on her face.
“Ah, no, Sir’s girlfriend?” Jia Zizai felt that the way he had addressed her was not suitable so he changed it.
“Yes, she is my girlfriend and will be my wife soon,” w.a.n.g Yao openly said, causing Su Xiaoxue’s pretty face to become even redder.
“I congratulate you in advance, Sir,” Jia Zizai said. “Remember to notify me then.”
“Sure,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“I shall not disturb you guys.” Jia Zizai went back with a smile. He went straight to Zhong Liuchuan’s house and went in without knocking.
Zhong Liuchuan was meditating on the cattail.
“Wow, you really are preparing to be a Taoist,” Jia Zizai said.
“What other matters do you have?” Zhong Liuchuan opened his eyes and asked.
“I have something to tell you,” w.a.n.g Yao said. “I saw Sir’s wife!”
“What wife?” Zhong Liuchuan asked.
“Just now, I saw that Sir walking around with a very beautiful, fairy-like figure in the village. Sir has admitted it himself. She is his girlfriend and future wife.” Jia Zizai spoke in a rather excited tone as if he had discovered a great event.
“What about it?” Zhong Liuchuan quietly asked.
“Hey, have you known for a long time? Why are you so calm?” Jia Zizai asked.
“It is normal that Sir would have a girlfriend,” Zhong Liuchuan said as he stood up. “Besides, Sir is so excellent and like an immortal figure. It would be a perfect match for him to marry a fairy-like wife. What’s so shocking about it? As for you. I’ve heard from someone that you once waited for three days in the mud pit to ambush someone to carry out your task. How calm and patient were you then? Why does every little encounter surprise you so much now? Are you someone else pretending to be you? Do you have a human skin mask on? Let me see.”
“Hey, what do you mean by that?” Jia Zizai asked.
“Let me see,” Zhong Liuchuan said.
“Don’t joke. I’m myself, not a fake,” Jia Zizai said with a smile.
Zhong Liuchuan suddenly made a move. He couldn’t see how fast he was, but Jia Zizai’s face quickly changed.
“Come on! Really?”
Jia Zizai wanted to avoid it but realized that the Zhong Liuchuan’s fist was very strange. He dodged, but the fist still managed to land on him.
It was not that he was slow. It was that the other man was changing.
This fist landed solidly on his stomach. It was not as heavy as expected, but it still hurt.
“Really?” Jia Zizai asked.
“Is it really you?” Zhong Liuchuan asked with a smile.
“Are you playing with me?” Jia Zizai asked.
Zhong Liuchuan took a step back and observed Jia Zizai carefully.
“Well, it seems that you’re real,” Zhong Liuchuan said.
“You…” Jia Zizai rubbed his stomach, but he was shocked. Because of Zhong Liuchuan’s fist, he knew the man was half-joking, but that fist had surprised him. He had been unable to dodge it. If Zhong Liuchuan had used more strength, it would have caused him a lot of pain.
“Is that the kung fu Sir taught you?” he asked.
“Yes,” Zhong Liuchuan said.
“Can you teach me?” Jia Zizai asked.
“What do you think?” Zhong Liuchuan asked.
“Alright fine, if Sir does get married, please let me know in advance,” Jia Zizai said.
“For sure,” Zhong Liuchuan said.
“I’m leaving. You can practice now,” Jia Zizai said.
“I won’t see you off,” Zhong Liuchuan said.
Jia Zizai left humming a little tune, but it lacked interest and gusto.
“I didn’t expect the gap had become so big,” Jia Zizai said when he got home. “How long has it been?”
“What gap?” Hu Mei asked when she heard him talking to himself.
“Zhong Liuchuan! Although I haven’t fought with him before, I remember that it shouldn’t have been difficult to deal with him,” Jia Zizai said. “I could a.n.a.lyze it from the way he treated me like I was a great opponent when he saw me. Now, I can’t even dodge his fist. Is it because he has made so much progress or because I am too relaxed?”
“You!” Hu Mei reached out and poked his forehead.
“Why does it concern us if he is making progress?” she asked. “He is not our enemy. We have already bid farewell to our past life. It has been cut off. We don’t have to fight anymore. We don’t have to figure out how to deal with any enemies!”
“Well, you can put it that way, but I still think that is not the case,” Jia Zizai said. “It’s just like when you always bully a person and get used to bullying him. One day, he is suddenly the one who is stepping on you with your face on the ground. The contrast is too big, and it’s hard to immediately accept!”
“You have the weirdest reasons!” Hu Mei rolled her eyes at him.
“By the way, did you know Sir has a very beautiful girlfriend?” Jia Zizai asked. “She is just a little worse than you! I saw her today. She is just like a fairy. She is his future wife.”
“Is that so? Did you ask when the wedding will be held?” Hu Mei asked.
“I asked, but he hasn’t made up his mind yet,” Jia Zizai said. “I told him not to forget to tell us when he gets married. Besides, we live in this mountain village. We will surely know when he gets married. Hey, what kind of gift shall we prepare for him?”
“Your recent state of mind is jumping quite quickly,” Hu Mei said. “It is a little early to think about it, isn’t it?”
“It is not too early,” Jia Zizai said. “He is the person who will become my master in the future. This gift must have weight, so I must jump quickly. My thoughts have been jumping around recently. Why is that? Is it because our shackles and sword hanging above our heads is gone? We are free and can live the life we want, so it has been jumping around! What’s wrong with that?”
“It’s no problem as long as you are happy,” Hu Mei replied.
“My wife is the best!” Jia Zizai kissed her.
“Go away,” she said.
w.a.n.g Yao and Su Xiaoxue walked out of the village as they strolled along and came to the road leading to Nanshan Hill.
“When were the trees planted here?” Su Xiaoxue pointed to a new tree path under the mountain.
“Just over a month ago,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“Is it suitable to plant trees in autumn?” she asked.
“It is. The climate here is different from the outside. It is perfectly fine to plant trees even in late autumn,” w.a.n.g Yao said with a smile. “By the way, there are fresh fruits on the mountain. Shall we go and have a taste?”
“Sure!”
The two of them went up Nanshan Hill hand in hand.
The dog came to meet them at the foot of the mountain. He wagged his tail happily, saying h.e.l.lo to Su Xiaoxue.
“I think it’s smiling at me,” Su Xiaoxue said in surprise. She had indeed seen a “smile” on the face of the dog.
“Is that so? Let me see.” w.a.n.g Yao looked at it carefully.
Woof! Woof!
The dog seemed to be asking what he was looking at him for.
“It is indeed smiling,” w.a.n.g Yao said. “It seems that it welcomes you a lot. Hey, San Xian, how come I haven’t seen you smile before?”
Woof! Woof!
“OK, OK, we’ll go up the mountain.” w.a.n.g Yao smiled and touched the dog’s head.
“Strange, why do I feel that this mountain is different from the last time I was here?” Su Xiaoxue asked.
“What’s different?” w.a.n.g Yao asked
“I feel like the aura is more intense, and it seems to be taller,” Su Xiaoxue replied.
“Yes, it is indeed a little taller,” w.a.n.g Yao said with a smile.
“Is it still growing?” Su Xiaoxue asked.
“It’s still growing, and it grew more than 3 feet in one night,” w.a.n.g Yao said. “I thought that it was an earthquake!”
“How tall can it grow?” she asked.
“I don’t know about that,” w.a.n.g Yao replied. “It depends on its own thoughts!”
“Its own thoughts?” Su Xiaoxue was a bit confused.
“This mountain is smart and has its own thoughts. Come and taste this fruit. It is all from these fruit trees. They taste great!” w.a.n.g Yao brought out a fruit plate with grapes, apples, dates, and autumn pears. The uniform characteristics of the different fruits were that they were all big, had bright colors, and looked juicy. They had a special fruity scent, which belonged to the kind of delicious things that one didn’t need to see to know their exquisite taste.
“Try it,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Sure!” Su Xiaoxue picked up a grape and put it into her mouth. It was juicy and very sweet.
“Delicious!” She couldn’t help but eat a few more.
“Try something else. They’re all quite delicious,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
Su Xiaoxue tasted every kind of fruit. All of them tasted delicious. It was totally different from what she usually had.
“It’s so delicious!”
“If it is delicious, shall I send you some regularly?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Sure!”
Ring! Ring! Ring! Buzz… w.a.n.g Yao’s phone rang. It was his sister calling. She said that she wanted to ask Su Xiaoxue to try on a bridesmaid’s dress.
“Sure,” Su Xiaoxue said. “I’ve brought a gift for her too!”
“What gift?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“I will keep it a secret for the time being,” Su Xiaoxue said. “I’ll give it to her when I see her.”
“Alright, let’s go over this afternoon,” w.a.n.g Yao said. “She will be very busy tomorrow.”
“Sure.”
The two of them went down the mountain. They drove to Lianshan’s town center and went to the place where they had agreed to meet.
“When did Xiaoxue come?” w.a.n.g Ru saw Su Xiaoxue and asked her about various things in a friendly manner.
“I just arrived today,” Su Xiaoxue said.
After a long chat, they began to choose the bridesmaid’s dress for Su Xiaoxue.
“This girl is so beautiful!” the person at the wedding shop exclaimed as she looked at Su Xiaoxue. She had seen all sorts of beauties but such a beautiful one was rare.
w.a.n.g Ru chose the most expensive dress. Su Xiaoxue tried it on. Everything about her became even more beautiful.
“This can’t do,” said w.a.n.g Ru’s best friend, who had accompanied her.
“Why not?” w.a.n.g Ru asked.
“Is this your sister-in-law?” her friend asked.
“Yes, in the future,” w.a.n.g Ru said.
“Look at how beautiful she is,” her friend said. “I am not saying that you are not beautiful, but if she becomes your bridesmaid, she will s.n.a.t.c.h the limelight from you!”
