As soon as Ming Shiyuan asked the question, Xu Zhiyi lowered his head and said in an extremely soft voice:
"Auntie, I know this is all my fault, and I don't know how to deal with this matter next. I have not experienced much, so I am definitely not as thoughtful as you. Please forgive me.
All I can think of at the moment is to return the betrothal gift given to me by the Ming family, as well as the betrothal gift and the red envelope I received when I got engaged, to the Ming family, including this house. My family will move out tomorrow. Return to original owner.
I know that the losses this matter has caused to the Ming family are not just financial. I'm sorry, but in other aspects, I am too light-hearted and unable to do anything.
I'm sorry, aunt, I'm really not sorry. "
At this time, she wouldn't dare to raise her head even if I beat her to death.
Ming Shiyuan's eyes were too sharp, as if she could see everything. She was afraid that if she looked at her, her secret would be revealed.
After hearing what she said, Ming Shiyuan was a little bit dumbfounded and kept going:
"You didn't understand the problem as soon as I heard it. Your wedding with Mingrui was only temporarily canceled, not the engagement. The wedding date is just to be determined. It has nothing to do with the betrothal gift, betrothal gift, and red envelopes during the engagement.
When I say troubleshooting, I mean solving problems that affect your pending marriage. Zhiyi, we are all adults. When we encounter problems, we face them head-on and solve them. This is what an adult should do. Now, let’s communicate openly and solve this problem, okay? "
Xu Zhiyi raised his head, looked at Ming Shiyuan, hesitated for a while, and asked timidly:
"Auntie, I told you, can you solve it? Does your opinion only represent you personally, or does it represent the elders of the entire Ming family?"
Hua Yun smiled and interjected: "Sister-in-law, don't worry. My mother and I will not come to you to talk without the consent of other elders of the Ming family. My mother's opinion is the opinion of everyone in the Ming family.
Just speak out your concerns and uneasiness boldly. Although my brother has already told us, we still want to hear what you have to say with our own ears to avoid any further misunderstandings. "
Xu Zhiyi lowered his head again, hesitating and half-talking:
"Actually, it's nothing. Maybe I'm too sensitive and too fragile. I always feel that my uncles and aunts don't like me very much, and they don't look down on me and my family.
I know that Brother Mingrui is very good, and the Ming family is also a great family in Acropolis, but even so, when I marry Brother Mingrui, I want to be his wife, not the Ming family, the Ming family...
I don’t know what words to use to describe it. In short, husband and wife are equal. I also said it in a confusing way. I wonder if you understand what I mean. "
After saying this, Xu Zhiyi couldn't help but complain to himself: Hey, what I said really tastes like green tea.
The core question was raised, and at the critical moment, Xu Zhiyi braced himself and listened carefully to what Ming Shiyuan said next.
Ming Shiyuan did not directly answer her words, but paused for a long time, seeming to be thinking.
Hua Yun also remained silent, just looking at them.
Finally, Ming Shiyuan spoke.
"Let me summarize. Ultimately, you think there is something wrong with Octavia's parents' attitude towards you, don't you?"
Xu Zhiyi nodded, "Just, after some experiences, I felt that they were arrogant and contemptuous intentionally or unintentionally. Maybe I felt wrong."
How could Xu Zhiyi's little trick escape Ming Shiyuan's eyes?
However, at this juncture, her focus was on solving the problem, and she simply ignored these little thoughts.
Ming Shiyuan did not play tricks with her and said directly:
"What happened in Hangzhou, Octavia's parents told us truthfully. In this matter, the Ming family did not protect their own shortcomings. It was Octavia's mother who did something wrong, and Octavia's father did not fundamentally solve the matter, so that You are afraid, they have realized their problem.
If you need it, they are willing to come over immediately and apologize to you in person. They are sincere. "
When Xu Zhiyi heard this, he quickly raised his head and waved his hands hurriedly:
"No, no, uncle has already apologized for aunt at that time. If aunt said this again today, I already know the attitude of the Ming family. Thank you for not protecting my shortcomings. Even if this matter is completely over, no one should mention it again in the future. ”
Ming Shiyuan nodded, "The Ming family sent me to handle this matter today because they want to use practical actions to make you feel that the Ming family values you. I wonder if handling it this way can help you dispel your worries about marrying into the Ming family?"
Huayun took the opportunity to get a booster shot:
"Sister-in-law, if you don't let my uncle and aunt come to apologize, it is a great favor to the Ming family, and it is also a great favor that they owe you.
With this face and favor at your side, even if some conflicts inevitably arise in the future, you will still have the initiative, so you don't have to worry.
Besides, my brother is here to protect you, so what are you afraid of? From now on, as long as you are reasonable, we will support you.
Stop hesitating, stop torturing my brother, get married, get married now! Grandparents have been looking forward to this day for so long, so just treat it as a surprise, okay? "
Xu Zhiyi wanted to nod immediately, but Mingrui told her that at this time, she should be more reserved and wait for a while before agreeing.
So, she looked undecided and wanted to hold on for a little while longer.
Ming Shiyuan didn't rush her and waited patiently.
Hua Yun acted coquettishly, pushing and shaking Xu Zhiyi.
"Oh, sister-in-law, just agree. Tomorrow is your 26th birthday, and it's the winter solstice again. What a wonderful day. Don't let the beautiful scenery and delay the wedding night. My brother won't be able to wait for one more day. Woolen cloth."
Xu Zhiyi glanced at Ming Shiyuan, bit his lips, nodded and said:
"Well, now that my aunt is making the decision for me, I have nothing to worry about. Auntie, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble."
Ming Shiyuan stood up with a calm expression, "Well, getting married is indeed a troublesome thing, so what can we do? Who said it was a happy event? The Ming family accepts your love. Hua Yun, tell your grandparents the news. "
"NO prOblem!"
After Ming Shiyuan and Hua Yun walked out of the Xu family gate, a burst of relieved cheers came from the room.
After going downstairs, they saw Ming Rui waiting in the car. Ming Shiyuan said with a joking look on his face, "You kid, why are you pretending to be waiting? Come to your father-in-law's house to deliver the extra box."
Octavia got out of the car with his three buddies. He looked innocent, "Auntie, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"
Ming Shiyuan and him looked at each other, and suddenly the two of them smiled tacitly, understanding each other tacitly.
She patted Mingrui on the shoulder and said, "Go up, the wedding will be held as normal tomorrow."
Octavia exaggeratedly said to Rainbow, "Wow, there really is nothing that aunt can't solve. Thank you, aunt."
Mingshi pushed him angrily, "Go, you brat!"
"I have the order, Lord Mayor!"
The next day is the winter solstice, which means the ultimate.
On this day, the day is the shortest and the night is the longest in the northern hemisphere. It is the day when Yang Qi begins to emerge and winter ends and spring returns.
It's a good day.
