At the end of the day, Song Heng was responsible for this matter. If he hadn’t caused so much trouble, Grandpa wouldn’t have been so anxious.
Song Heng, who was going to pick up the Bai Lu, sneezed for no reason. He felt a chill down his spine. Who was talking about him behind his back!
Ever since Song Chen met Xiaoqi and Little Sangyu, he had been obsessed with having a great-grandson. He had already started telling his son and daughter-in-law to see when they could pick a date to get married.
It did not matter if they were engaged or not, it was just a ceremony. They could find a good day to settle the marriage.
Song Yiyan’s head exploded because of this.
“Yanyan, come over.” Song Chen was wearing reading glasses and looking at something, he waved at her. “I think this is a good day. You and Ji Xing should get married too!”
Song Yiyan said, “The wedding date hasn’t been set yet!”
Song Chen smiled. “Get the certificate first.”
Song Yiyan sat down while Song Chen pulled her and pointed at it. “This is it, May 20th. I see that all the young people have chosen this day to register their marriage, you guys should go too. It’s more lively with everyone.”
The wedding needed to be chosen on a good day. It didn’t matter if they registered their marriage first, they could do it anytime.
What he meant was that the sooner the better.
After getting their marriage certificate, they would be legally married in name. It did not matter if there was a wedding or not.
After Ji Xing registered his marriage and lived at home, no one would gossip about him, unlike now, when he did not have a proper title.
“This is not a good day to marry,” Song Yiyan firmly objected.
It was already May 1st today. Grandpa wanted the two of them to register their marriage this month and hold a wedding. It would be best if she got pregnant this month and had a child, it would be ideal if they could do both!
She finally understood why Ji Xing, this scheming man, had persuaded her to stay in the old residence back then. This must be his plan.
Now, he has succeeded. It was impressive, awesome and admirable!
She was not against marriage, but she felt that it was a little too soon. She did not arrange for marriage and children to be part of her plan.
“I think this day is pretty good. Why are you young people more superstitious than an old man like me?” Song Chen decided. “On this day, go and get your marriage certificate. I’ll talk to Ah Heng and you two can go together.”
Not bad, not bad. When the time comes, it will be a double blessing!
“This is not feudal superstition. There’s a basis for it.” Song Yiyan argued. “Besides, I should have joined the crew after my third brother’s engagement. Even if we get married, we have to wait until after my third brother!”
Song Chen looked at the plate of bayberries on the table that she had finished and shouted, “Auntie Chen, bring another plate. Yanyan likes it.”
Song Yiyan ate one after another. The cold, sour, and sweet bayberries were very satisfying.
This bayberry was specially provided for the military region, it was the first batch of ripe fruits. Every one of them was big, fresh, and had a sweet and sour taste. It was great.
Ji Xing stepped into the living room and saw her holding plates of bayberries and eating them one by one. He frowned slightly, and obvious confusion flashed across his eyes.
The young lady liked to eat sweet things the most and couldn’t eat sour things. Why was she eating bayberries? Could it be that these bayberries were sweet?
When Song Chen saw him coming over, he waved at him with a smile. “Ji Xing, come over quickly, Grandpa has already picked a date for you. Look, it’s May 20th. It’s Valentine’s Day for you young people, right? What a good day, the two of you can register your marriage on this day!”
Ji Xing smiled and said, “Grandpa, you have to ask her about this. I can’t make the decision and can only listen to her. If she says we should get married, we will get married.”
He casually pinched a bayberry and put it into his mouth, but it made his mouth water. It looked delicious, and the sour taste still overwhelmed the sweet taste.
It was unappetizing to people like him who did not like to eat sour food.
Song Yiyan was eating happily. She looked up at Ji Xing and saw his slender hand pinching the bayberry he had taken a bite of and stuffing it into her mouth.
Ji Xing asked, “Is it delicious?”
Song Yiyan nodded. “It’s delicious, it’s sour and sweet. This fruit is not bad and it’s big and fresh. Grandpa, how many more do you have?”
Song Chen was happy to see her eating well. “There’s a lot. If you like it, I’ll get them to send more.”
Song Yiyan replied, “Yes.”
“Oh right, there are also cherries and apricots!” Song Chen remembered and called out to Auntie, “Auntie Chen, wash some cherries and apricots.”
The apricot was very big, and the cherry was not small either. They had just been taken out of the freezer, and they tasted very good.
Seeing that she had only eaten one cherry, Ji Xing did not eat any more. He took a cherry and tasted it. It was very sweet, and almost without any sourness.
Song Yiyan was eating apricot. “This is delicious too.”
Ji Xing looked at her. “Let me taste it.”
Song Yiyan fed him a bite.
Ji Xing’s mouth was filled with sourness due to the apricots, they were similar to the bayberries from before. He smiled and asked her, “Aren’t they sour?”
Song Yiyan nodded. “Sour and sweet, how delicious!”
“I thought you didn’t like sour food?” Ji Xing was straightforward.
Song Yiyan said, “I can’t change my taste. I like to eat sour food now.”
Ji Xing’s eyes glanced at her stomach, afraid of making a mistake, but he didn’t dare say what he was thinking.
Human tastes could change, but not so quickly.
Unless she had been stimulated by something or the hormones in her body had suddenly changed, causing her taste to change.
Song Yiyan frowned and stopped biting her apricot. “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Ji Xing took a cherry and stuffed it into his mouth, he reached out and snatched her apricot away. “I don’t have any ulterior motives. Even if it’s delicious, you can’t eat so much. Be careful of falling sick from eating too much.”
Song Yiyan touched her stomach, it was a little bloated. Her grandfather had been talking to her just now. She didn’t want to listen, so she kept eating to numb herself.
Song Chen said, “If you eat too much, let Auntie Chen brew some medicine for you to digest. Let Ji Xing go out with you for a walk.”
Song Yiyan and Ji Xing went out for a walk.
The courtyard was very quiet, and the greenery was especially good. The air was fresh, and walking on the road at night was a pleasure.
Ji Xing looked at the woman beside him and said in a sexy and low voice, “Yanyan, if we have a baby now, what will you do?”
Song Yiyan rolled her eyes at him. “Why would you assume that?”
Seeing how fierce she was, Ji Xing immediately calmed her down. He patted her head dotingly to calm her down. “If, I mean if.”
She wasn’t really against marriage, but her personality was stubborn in nature. Perhaps it was because she practiced Taoist techniques, but everything was about letting nature take its course. After being forced into a corner by her grandfather, she began to think that it was reverse psychology.
