Chapter 36 We Don't Take In A Wife

Uncle Pei nodded inwardly when he saw that Gu Si didn't show any expression. He put his hand on Gu Si's shoulder.

Gu Si subconsciously wanted to hide, but when he realized that this was Lingxi's uncle, he stopped himself.

Uncle Pei was observing carefully, and even though Gu Si's reaction was fast, it still didn't escape his eyes. Just from his reaction speed, it could be seen that Gu Si was no ordinary person.

Uncle Pei continued with what he had said before.

"But Lingxi really likes you, and although you have a bad reputation outside, you haven't really done anything immoral.

We thought that as long as you can treat Lingxi well, our family wouldn't mind raising one more person."

When he said this, he looked at Gu Si and saw that his expression was a bit indescribable.

Uncle Pei also nodded. Yes, it was just as you thought.

"We have convinced ourselves so much, but we really didn't expect that you were hiding your incompetence."

Gu Si: “…”

Tell me earlier!
Why would he be making such a fuss if you had told him earlier?

It would be so nice for him to accompany Lingxi comfortably every day. Why would he need to worry about wild boars, working, and preparing bait?

Uncle Pei's words silenced Gu Si.

He continued, "In the afternoon, your family found a matchmaker and said that you were willing to marry into my family. I thought about it again and again, and now that I see you, I am sure."

He paused here for a moment, and Gu Si subconsciously held his breath, then heard Uncle Pei say, "We don't want to marry into the family."

Gu Si looked over in surprise.

He was stunned for a moment. Not only Gu Si, but also Pei Jin, Ling Xi and Pei Xuan who were dragging Pei Xuan to eavesdrop were stunned.

"Second uncle..."

Gu Si was about to say something when Uncle Pei interrupted him, his tone as gentle as ever: "We are marrying off our daughter, not taking in a son-in-law."

Gu Si's heart suddenly settled down. No matter whether it was marrying or marrying her, as long as it was Lingxi, it would be fine.

When Uncle Pei saw him like this, he was sure that he really cared about Lingxi, and he felt satisfied.

Everyone who heard this was very surprised.

Uncle Pei was actually the one who wanted Lingxi to marry his daughter-in-law in the first place.

Uncle Pei smiled.

He wanted to find a son-in-law for Lingxi so that he could feel more at ease under his supervision. However, the person he wanted to marry would not be someone like Gu Si, because he might not be able to subdue him at first sight.

When facing such a person, his attitude will naturally be different.

"Uncle can see that you are a capable person. Although we think it's nothing to marry into your family, it's not a good reputation in the eyes of outsiders.

I don't know why you have been hiding your abilities all this time.

But, because of this, it is not convenient for you to use the money.

Uncle will help you build a yard, buy belongings and settle down. Uncle will not accept a son-in-law. I just hope that you can remember the good things about your family and treat Lingxi well in the future."

Gu Si is obviously not someone who would submit to being inferior to others, so why force him to marry into the family?
He is nice to Lingxi now and is happy with everything she does, but will he be happy forever?
Uncle Pei didn’t know, and Uncle Pei didn’t want to gamble.

He now took a step back and asked Gu Si to remember this favor. Even if he changed his mind in the future, as long as he remembered this favor, he would not let Lingxi down.

Uncle Pei's words made everyone else silent, and Gu Si came back to his senses.

"You are so kind. Lingxi came to me after much pleading, so I will naturally treasure her."

As for what was said about marrying into the family, or about the child having Lingxi's surname...

He couldn't explain it, but forget it, there was still a long time to go, so just take it slow!
"Since you said so, Second Uncle will believe it."

As for not speaking the truth...

He wouldn't want to know the consequences.

The old lady was originally sorting mushrooms that were drying in the yard. When she heard that her grandson-in-law was coming, her eyes lit up and she pulled Gu Si to look him up and down.

This head, this look...

Good, good, they match well with Ling Xier.

No matter what the old lady asked, Gu Si always responded in a rare good temper, which made the old lady unable to stop smiling.

The baskets that Gu Si and Ling Xi brought back contained fish and meat, so the family simply cooked a meal of white rice, killed a chicken, and braised the fish.

The meal was a little late. Because they were drinking, the old lady, Aunt Pei, Aunt Lingxi and the others left the table early, leaving only a few grown men there toasting each other.

Lingxi went back to the house to pack up the pile of wooden toys that Uncle Pei had given him at noon, as well as a handful of private money that he had saved from somewhere, and was then dragged to the kitchen by little Minghui.

The kitchen is spacious and is where most meals are eaten.

At this time, Uncle Pei was a little tipsy and sat there with his head propped up. Pei Jin and Pei Xuan were cleaning the table, and her fourth brother...

Lingxi looked at Gu Si, who was sitting there motionless, behaving like a primary school student with his hands on his legs, and walked up to him and poked him.

Gu Si's eyes were a little dull. When he saw clearly that it was Lingxi, he reached out and grabbed her little hand, then moved closer. His eyes, bright as stars, looked at her intently with a gentle gaze.

"young married woman."

His voice was slightly hoarse, and when he shouted, Lingxi's face turned red instantly.

She looked at her second uncle Pei, Pei Jin and Pei Xuan who had heard the noise and looked over, and she wished she could dig a hole and bury herself.

Gu Si felt a little aggrieved when he saw Lingxi ignoring him.

"young married woman."

He shouted again.

"Ah?" Lingxi responded vaguely, and Gu Si was satisfied.

He hid himself behind Lingxi and complained aggrievedly.

"Wife, they bullied me."

Lingxi: “…”

Second Uncle Pei, Pei Jin, Pei Xuan: "..."

ah ah ah ah...

Lingxi wanted to hide herself even more.

Pei Jin, Pei Xuan, and Second Uncle Pei all wanted to laugh but had to hold back their laughter.

"Laugh, they still laugh." He felt even more aggrieved.

Pei Jin, Pei Xuan and Uncle Pei didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"We didn't drink much. This bottle was for four grown men, so how could it be..."

How could it come to this?

Pei Xuan wanted to say something, but seeing Gu Si like this, he really couldn't say it. He really had become like this.

Lingxi felt embarrassed and wanted to laugh. She tried hard not to let the corners of her lips curl up, but she couldn't help but smile in her eyes.

Pei Jin laughed: "Take them to the yard to get some fresh air first, I'll make a bowl of hangover soup and send it over later."

"I'm not drunk."

Gu Si seemed to understand the meaning of these words and retorted angrily.

Lingxi: “…”

Fine!

"Okay, okay, I'm not drunk." Lingxi felt a little embarrassed.

Gu Si was instantly satisfied, and followed her like a young wife, pulling at her clothes and following her obediently.

The two men just walked out of the kitchen.

I don't know who laughed first, but everyone started laughing.

Lingxi: “…”

!!!

She unconsciously quickened her pace.

Uncle Pei's voice came from behind, with some laughter: "This is good, at least when you get drunk, you won't act crazy."

Little Gu Si, who was no more than four years old at the moment, didn't understand why Lingxi sped up. He was afraid that she would run away, so he just hung on her and held her in his arms.

Lingxi's body froze instantly.

Ahhh, this is still in the yard!
Gu Si tilted his head and rubbed it against her body, "My wife won't run away. Let's run together."
