Ye Jingyi's eyes were reddish, and her pale face was a little red due to eagerness. She shook her head hard, and Ye Jingyi choked with sobs and said: "Grandpa, I can't find anything good about Ye Xun, please let me go." , Jingyi really doesn’t want to be engaged to Ye Xun.”
After listening to Ye Jingyi's words, Ye Tianxuan's old face turned red with anger. He waved his sleeves and said angrily: "This matter is a foregone conclusion. It doesn't matter if you agree or not. In short, this marriage must be decided, and you must also decide." She will be the daughter-in-law of the Ye family, there is no need to negotiate."
Ye Tianxuan's tone was very firm. Regardless of whether Ye Jingyi had anything to say, he just walked out of the house. But before taking steps, Ye Tianxuan told Ye Jingyi to take good care of her injuries and get engaged to Ye Xun after the new year.
Ye Xun outside the house heard these words clearly. He originally wanted to see Ye Jingyi's injury, but he did not expect to hear such a conversation. However, Ye Xun clearly felt Ye Jingyi's resistance to the marriage.
And there was an indescribable feeling in his heart, which seemed sad and helpless.
Hearing Ye Tianxuan's footsteps walking towards the door, Ye Xun hurriedly hid in the darkness. After Ye Tianxuan left, Ye Xun came to the door again. Ye Xun wanted to knock on the door, but this time he Ye Jingyi's sobs were heard.
With a slight sigh, Ye Xun put down his hand on the door and left here with a gloomy expression.
Two days later, Xingyue Sword Sect ushered in the new year in the bright sunshine, and everyone in the sect happily felt the festive atmosphere on this day.
The joy spread to almost every corner of Xingyue Jianmen, and even the entire Ningyang City celebrated this most important festival amidst the sound of firecrackers.
In the dining hall of Xingyue Jianmen, six banquet tables were filled with people. At the upper table, two pairs of grandsons, Ye Yun and Ye Tianxuan, as well as Bai Yurou and Ye Yue were sitting. After that, there were Liu Yunfei and his wife, Xie Wuji and Bai Jingshu.
The martial arts figures summoned by Ye Xun, as well as brothers Li Xunhuan and Su Qingchen were on the upper side. They had already feasted and toasted to each other in a festive atmosphere.
In contrast, Ye Xun seemed a little depressed. Although today was the New Year, Ye Xun was not very happy in his heart.
During this dinner, Ye Yun kept talking to Ye Tianxuan about the major and minor matters of his engagement to Ye Jingyi, and Ye Xun couldn't get a word in at all.
It is undeniable that Ye Jingyi is a beautiful woman who has attracted the attention of the whole country. If Ye Xun could marry such a beautiful woman in his previous life, let alone how happy he would be. But today, Ye Xun knows that this beauty has no relationship with him at all. The friendship between him and her was just a family arrangement.
Looking at Ye Jingyi, Ye Xun had mixed emotions in his eyes, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Similarly, Ye Jingyi's expression was not good. It was even more difficult for her than Ye Xun to accept the marriage that Ye Tianxuan and Ye Yun had arranged for them.
But their grandfather, in the midst of the New Year celebrations, set their engagement ceremony on January 15th, the day of the Lantern Festival.
Ye Xun originally wanted to confess to Ye Yun and Ye Tianxuan during this dinner, but in the end he had to compromise because Ye Tianxuan's eyes were very clear. As long as Ye Xun said half a word "no", Ye Xun would definitely let him experience a lesson from his elders. special kindness.
Time came to January 14th in a blink of an eye, and tomorrow was the day to hold the engagement ceremony for Ye Xun and Ye Jingyi.
In Ye Xun's room, Bai Yurou, Bai Jingshu and Ye Yue were all here. Bai Yurou smiled like smoke. Her son was getting engaged tomorrow, and she was very happy.
The same goes for Yeyue. This is the happiest time for her since her father and eldest sister disappeared.
But Bai Jingshu, who was standing behind Bai Rurou, always had a kind of loss flashing in her eyes, but no one noticed it.
"Xun'er, after you get engaged tomorrow, you will be considered an adult. From now on, you can't do things according to your own will. After tomorrow, you will officially take on the responsibilities of a man."
Ye Xun nodded awkwardly: "I understand, mother."
Bai Yurou smiled happily, took Ye Xun's hand and said softly: "Xun'er, you must treat Jingyi well from now on and don't make her angry."
Ye Xun said: "Mom, we are just engaged, not married yet."
"It's the same. After we get engaged, we'll get married. Then we have to spread the branches of the Ye family as soon as possible."
Upon hearing Bai Yurou's words, Ye Xun's expression immediately turned red and unnatural: "Mother, it's still early for the branches to spread out."
Bai Yurou giggled: "Yue'er Jingshu, look, Xun'er is shy."
Ye Xun suddenly felt embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Amidst the laughter, Bai Yurou gave Ye Xun a few more instructions, and Ye Xun wrote them down one by one.
After Bai Yurou left with Bai Jingshu and Ye Yue, Ye Xun couldn't help but become upset again, so he decided to walk outside the door.
Ye Xun looked at the red silk and satin hanging on all the buildings in the door, feeling a special sense of ritual. He didn't know whether he should be happy.
"Congratulations, sir, you will be engaged to Miss Ye tomorrow."
Ye Xun turned around and saw that the person speaking was Ah Qing.
Ye Xun smiled and said: "Aqing, if one day I ask you to marry someone you don't like, what will you do?"
Although Ah Qing was confused as to why Ye Xun asked like this, he still answered truthfully: "A Qing will not disobey any of the Young Master's orders."
Hearing Ah Qing's answer, Ye Xun couldn't help but smile to himself, but his expression was clearly reflected in Ah Qing's eyes.
"Don't Miss Ye like the young master?"
Ye Xun did not answer, but the scene outside Ye Jingyi's house more than ten days ago emerged in his mind. Ye Jingyi proposed to Ye Tianxuan to cancel the engagement, but was rejected by Ye Tianxuan. Ye Jingyi felt aggrieved and sobbed unwillingly.
Taking out the short flute that Ye Xiaoxiao gave him from his arms, Ye Xun's heart was filled with longing for Ye Xiaoxiao. If he hadn't let Murong Fu hurt Ning Yanqing and cause him to run away, maybe this engagement wouldn't have happened. It will come too soon.
Putting the short flute to his mouth, Ye Xun adjusted his breathing, and a melodious tune echoed in Ah Qing's ears.
This piece of music is exactly the beautiful mythical piece that Ye Xun played when he missed Ye Xiaoxiao outside the city of Xuzhou.
The music gradually stopped. Ye Xun looked at the short flute in his hand and suddenly made up his mind.
"Xiaoxiao, brother Ye Xun will never let you down."
Looking at the upcoming full moon in the night sky, Ye Xun nodded firmly, and then left the place with A Qing.
…
January 15th, the Lantern Festival!
Today's Xingyue Sword Sect is filled with a festive atmosphere. The disciples in the sect have all gotten up early, looking forward to the engagement ceremony of their young sect leader.
In the main hall, the festive atmosphere was particularly strong, and laughter and laughter could be heard all the time. The two lanterns under the eaves were inlaid with two golden characters for happiness. Under the breeze, the lanterns could not help but sway gently.
Ye Jingyi was wearing a bright red palace dress today, which added a classical charm to her already elegant and elegant look. With Yeyue's support, she slowly walked into the main hall, but it was hard to see in her eyes. Cover up that trace of loss.
Ye Yun looked at this beauty and was very satisfied with Ye Jingyi, his granddaughter-in-law, and could not find any flaws at all.
The same is true for Bai Yurou, with a joyful smile on her face.
"Why hasn't Xun'er come yet? The bride-to-be has already arrived."
Ye Yun was a little worried, because he found that not only did he not see Ye Xun in the main hall, but also several followers around him. He couldn't help but feel worried. He didn't want anything to happen at this time. He quickly ordered Liu Yunfen to go and urge Ye Xun.
"Two old friends, congratulations!" Xie Wuji led Linghu Chong into the main hall and presented the gifts in his hands.
Ye Yun's face was full of spring breeze, as if he suddenly looked ten years younger at this moment: "Thank you for being so polite, brother, I must have a nice wedding wine today."
Xie Wuji looked at Ye Jingyi, who was wearing a red palace dress, and couldn't help but praise: "Old friend, this granddaughter of yours is really a child, and this kid Ye Xun is really lucky."
After saying this, everyone in the hall couldn't help laughing.
Suddenly a piano music sounded, and Qu Tan'er led Xue'er into the lobby of Xingyue Sword Gate.
But as soon as she appeared, the expressions of Ye Tianxuan and Ye Yun changed slightly.
Ye Tianxuan said: "What are you doing here?"
"Of course my lady is here to attend Young Master Ye's engagement ceremony." After saying that, Xue'er presented the gift in her hand with both hands.
Ye Tianxuan snorted coldly: "There is no need for gifts. If Miss Qu is just attending the ceremony today, Ye will welcome her. If she is here to cause trouble, then don't blame Ye for being unkind."
Qu Tan'er glanced at Ye Jingyi, who was dressed in embroidered robes, and said quietly: "Don't worry, Master Ye, Tan'er has his own sense of proportion."
After saying this, Qu Tan'er felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart. She liked Ye Xun, but she didn't know why. Maybe it was the music outside Xuzhou that night that made her like Ye Xun. .
But when she learned from Ye Tianxuan that there was an engagement between Ye Xun and Ye Jingyi, she also felt a sense of loss in her heart, but Qu Tan'er kept suppressing this loss in her heart.
It wasn't until a few days ago when Ye Xun and Ye Jing agreed to get engaged during the Lantern Festival on January 15th that Qu Tan'er felt a sad feeling in her heart.
After struggling for many days, Qu Tan'er finally decided to come to congratulate him in person today and ask Ye Xun what he really thought.
As long as brother Ye Xun has a little affection for her, she will stop the engagement ceremony.
If Ye Xun doesn't like him, then Qu Tan'er is not the kind of person who will destroy him if he doesn't get it, and he will still sincerely congratulate Ye Xun.
Ye Tianxuan ignored Qu Tan'er anymore, but Qu Tan'er's arrival also made Ye Tianxuan feel a little vigilant in his heart, and he couldn't help but urge Ye Yun: "Why aren't Xun'er here yet? The auspicious time is coming soon."
At this moment, Liu Yunfei hurried back, looking a little anxious, and he also had a letter in his hand.
"Master, something happened."
As soon as these words came out, Ye Yun's expression suddenly changed: "What happened? Where is Xun'er? Why don't you see him coming with you?"
"Xun'er, he..."
Seeing Liu Yunfei's hesitant expression, Ye Yun suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
"What's wrong with Xun'er? Tell me quickly!"
"When I went to Xun'er's bedroom, Xun'er was not in the bedroom, and his engagement clothes were neatly folded on the bedside, and there was also a letter left by Xun'er on it."
"I thought Xun'er was just having fun and forgot about the auspicious time to get engaged. I searched for a long time in the door, but there was no trace of Xun'er, so I hurried back here." After saying that, Liu Yunfei handed the letter in his hand to Ye cloud.
Ye Yun quickly took it and opened the letter. When he saw the content inside, his body trembled unconsciously. Suddenly, there was a backflow of energy and blood, and he almost spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Upon seeing this, Liu Yunfei immediately supported Ye Yun, caressed his back and at the same time, activated his true energy to help Ye Yun relieve the backflow of energy and blood.
Seeing this, Ye Tianxuan snatched the letter left by Ye Xun. When he looked at it carefully, he was filled with anger and his body began to tremble. He raised his hand and smashed a table made of nanmu into pieces, roaring: "Little beast !”
"Brother Ye, what happened? What happened to the child Ye Xun?"
"This little beast actually abandoned Jingyi and ran away during the engagement ceremony!"
