Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 121



Chapter 121

Huo Chi, who ran out of the kitchen, was no better than Da Qiao.

His ears were burning, while his eyes were erratic. Ans his breathing was short.

Shen Tian You ran past and was taken aback when he saw him like this: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, are you alright?"

Huo Chi came back to his senses, waved his hands and responded, "I'm fine."

Shen Tian You doubtfully eyed his face: "But you don't look like you're okay at all. Are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital?"

Huo Chi waved his hand again: "You are still small. You don't understand."

Fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys hate it when others say they are still small!

When Shen Tian You heard this, he was immediately dissatisfied: "Really? I don't believe it. What is it I don't understand?"

Huo Chi halted his steps and looked at him, "Would you deliberately drink water in front of other people?"

Shen Tian You was stunned and shook his head: "...No, why would deliberately drink water in front of other people? Is there any special meaning in doing this?"

Huo Chi didn't dissolve his confusion. Instead, threw another question: "Then would you deliberately get sweaty and go to someone?"

Shen Tian You showed a look of disgust: "...No! Who would be sick enough to deliberately stink with sweat and go look for others. If someone does this, I will definitely give him a punch!"

Huo Chi raised his hand and patted his shoulder, "That's why I said you don't understand. You'll understand once you grow up."

After he finished speaking, he left Shen Tian You with a thunderstruck face; leaving an unfathomable impression with this departure.

Huo Chi was also very entangled at this time.

Getting sweaty and deliberately drinking water in front of Da Qiao were tricks he specially learned from his elder cousin brother.

His elder cousin brother was a few years older than him and had used a pestering tricks to chase down his goddess. The two got married last year and cousin-in-law was found to be pregnant a few months ago. Now they were living happily.

He had understood his heart since he was sixteen. However, Da Qiao was still young and ignorant. He had been waiting for her to grow up.

She will be eighteen next year. But he found that she seem to have always regarded him as an elder brother.

He didn't want to be her elder brother. If he had to be a brother, he wanted to be a lover brother!

So in order to make Da Qiao enlightened and like him, he went to ask his elder cousin brother for advice.

Elder Cousin Brother said, "To get a girl to fall in love with you, you must first exude your manly charm. If the male peacock wants to attract the female peacock, he has to open his tail. Are I right?"

He felt that what his elder cousin brother said was very reasonable. He was going to go back and buy a batch of accessories to start anew. He was bound to make himself more attractive than the male peacock.

However, his elder cousin brother said that he was too superficial and his thoughts were too superficial. The charm of a man was definitely not exuded up with clothes, watches and other accessories. If a woman falls in love with you because of these, then this woman was too much of a gold-digger.

After listening to it, he felt more and more that his elder cousin brother was a master among masters.

So after extorting a second-hand camera from him, his elder cousin brother passed him the courtship trick.

'Tricks' like sweating and drinking water were taught to him by his elder cousin brother. In order to be safe, he hid in the room and practiced many times to himself.

He felt that his performance just now could score ninety percent.

Thinking of the way Da Qiao looked at him with pointed eyes and red ears, he was overjoyed in his heart.

There was only one thing that he felt that he wasn't doing well enough; he couldn't steady himself!

Da Qiao just looked at him with her eyes and he couldn't take it anymore. If he hadn't escaped quick enough, he would definitely be unable to resist... kissing her.

Her lips were pink and delicate, like pink roses that just bloomed in the morning. It made people have... the urge to nibble just from the sight of it!

Oh, it looked like he had to practice a few more times.

Qiao Zhen Min looked at his daughter who was sitting across from him. The fourteen-year-old girl was already slim like a little lotus just budding her sharp points. She was young and full of vitality.

Recalling how she was autistic and didn't talk to others when she was a child, he was very emotional: "In a blink, you have grown up."

Qiao Dong Wan obviously didn't sense the 'old father' mood and bluntly blurted: "Dad, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, I have to go back and talk to Elder Sister Da Qiao."

Qiao Zhen Min: "..."

His restless 'old father' heart suddenly became chilled.

After a cough, he no longer felt any nostalgia: "Dong Wan, you should be aware of the relationship between Dad and Auntie Sheng Mei right?"

Qiao Dong Wan nodded: "I know. You want to marry Auntie Sheng Mei?"

Qiao Zhen Min didn't expect his daughter to be so direct. His palms sweated as he said nervously: "Your auntie Sheng Mei likes you very much. Dad also promises... no matter how many people there are in the family in the future, you will be the most important in Dad's heart. I mean, if you don't object..."

Seeing how her dad was getting so nervous that he was a little incoherent, Qiao Dong Wan interrupted him, "I have no objection. I like Auntie Sheng Mei and little Mi Bao."

She had no doubts about what her dad said.

Over the years, her dad had lived alone with her. There were many people who wanted to introduce him to someone, especially after their Qiao Family had become rich. The number of people who have fallen in love with her dad can't be counted on ten fingers.

But her dad refused.

She knew that her dad was worried that those women would hurt her like Chen Qiao Qiao and Shi Qin Xin. So he would rather stay alone with her.

Her heart wasn't made of stone. She can sense his fatherly love.

Unlike other children, she had memories since she was three years old. She remembers everything that happened in clear detail.

In other words, she remembered her biological mom, Chen Qiao Qiao beating her and what Shi Qin Xin did to her.

She hated those two women. However, Auntie Sheng Mei was different from them.

She never deliberately pleased her nor did she pretend to show her warmth. Her like and dislike was truthfully expressed.

She liked her straightforwardness and liked her for doting her. She cherished all the gifts she received from her.

So, if her dad wanted to marry Auntie Sheng Mei, she wouldn't object.

Qiao Zhen Min's eyes widened: "Dong Wan, are you telling the truth? You don't have to think about Dad's feeling. If you don't want to, Dad won't get married."

He love Chu Sheng Mei very much, but for him and Chu Sheng Mei, children were equally important.

They had even negotiated that even if they get married in the future, they will not have any more children. It was enough to have two daughters, Dong Wan and little Mi Bao!

Qiao Dong Wan nodded again: "I'm telling the truth. However, the difficulties you have to face aren't on my side, but Auntie Sheng Mei's in-laws. Dad, do you have anything else? If not, then I'll leave."

Qiao Zhen Min's old father's heart withered again: "...No, none. You can go find your elder sister Da Qiao."

Qiao Dong Wan nodded, stood up and left without hesitation.

A gust of wind blew. The leaves on the trees fell off.

Looking at the fallen leaves in front of him, Qiao Zhen Min felt the mood of the empty nest in advance.

His heart felt sour.

In the hall.

Qiao Dong He tugged at the corner of her clothes. Her cheeks flushed red as her tears were about to come out.

Luo Jun Liang, who was beside her, was sitting on pins and needles.

Under Qiao Dong He's grandparents' gaze, he pulled up the courage, "Grandfather, Grandmother, it's not Dong He's fault in this matter. It's mine. If you want to scold someone, just scold me!"

Qiao Xiu Zhi coldly uttered, "Of course it's your fault. If you really cherish Dong He, you shouldn't have done such a thing before marriage!"

She had also been young and naturally understood what it felt like to be in love. But if their sense of responsibility was strong enough, they shouldn't let this happen!

It wasn't that she thought doing this kind of thing was shameless. It was the world was like this. If this matter spread, Qiao Dong He's life will be ruined!

Luo Jun Liang's face flushed red. He didn't dare to refute a word: "I'm sorry! Truly sorry. It's my fault! I will cherish Dong He more in the future!"

Seeing her fianc being scolded, Qiao Dong He defended him in a whispered tone, "...Actually, I was also at fault."

It was her birthday that day. The two of them drank a little alcohol. Then they did it in a daze. She regretted it immediately after waking up.

It was just that she never imagined that they did it just once and she was pregnant!

Qiao Xiu Zhi glanced at her and scolded, "It's great that you know you are wrong too! Young Luo, have you told your family about this?"

She wasn't being partial to her own family. One hand can't clap. Both Qiao Dong He and Luo Jun Liang shared the responsibility.

It was just that Qiao Dong He was pregnant now. What's more, her skin was too thin. If she was criticized too harshly, she was worried that she will do stupid things later.

Luo Jun Liang shook his head: "Dong He told me not to talk about it; saying that this matter must be discussed with you two elders before it can be said."

Qiao Xiu Zhi nodded: "As least you're not stupid to the end. If you listen to me, then don't let your mom know about this matter. What do you think, Young Luo?"

Thinking of his mom's personality, his face became red once again: "We'll listen to Grandmother!"

Qiao Dong He bobbed her head at once.

Qiao Xiu Zhi was solemn for a moment before speaking, "Go back and tell your parents that you want to have the wedding ahead of time. Think of the reason on your own. But don't blame me for not reminding you in advance. If you can't handle this little matter, then this marriage won't happen!"

Luo Jun Liang had a frank and cheerful personality and was good to Qiao Dong He. However, he got a difficult mother. If Qiao Dong He's personality was like Qiao Dong Ying or Da Qiao, she won't worry.

But Qiao Dong He was introverted. Even when she felt aggrieved, she will only hold it in her heart.

So she had to give the other party a warning in advance. Don't think that they end up in bed, he can treat her lightly!

Since she could let her three children divorce under pressure back then, she can let Qiao Dong He abort and break up now!

Luo Jun Liang felt the pressure. He nodded again like woodpecker: "Don't worry, Grandfather, Grandmother, I will definitely settle this well!"

Qiao Dong He shrunk her head and dared not speak for her match at this time.

Da Qiao learned from Qiao Dong Wan that her fifth uncle was going to remarry.

She examined her younger sister's face and softly spoke, "Dong Wan, you really don't mind?"

Qiao Dong Wan washed her hands, walked over, and naturally took over the spatula in her hand. As she stirred the contents of the pot, she replied, "Don't worry, Elder Sister, I'm really fine."

Seeing that she didn't look like she was acting, Da Qiao was relieved: "Speaking of which, Fifth Uncle and Auntie Sheng Mei are good together."

Chu Family was Qiao Dong Wan's benefactor. On top of that, Chu Sheng Mei's elder brother was also Qiao Dong Wan's godfather. So even if they get married in the future, they don't have to worry about Shi Qin Xin's matter reoccurring.

Qiao Dong Wan's eyes drooped slightly and looked at the tumbling lotus seeds in the pot, "Elder Sister, I'm fine. However, I feel that something has happened to Eldest Cousin Sister."

Da Qiao came to a halt. Then she nodded, "So you sensed it too. I had asked about it in a roundabout way, but Elder Cousin Sister evaded it."

As soon as Elder Cousin Sister came back, she noticed her red and swollen eyes at a glance. Although she tried her best to hide it, she could still see that she was flustered and anxious.

At first she thought she had a fall out with her future elder brother-in-law. But later she saw that the two were close and didn't look like they were quarreling.

After thinking about it, she drop the matter. After all, this was her elder cousin sister's private matter.

She felt somewhat emotional though. After they grew up, the sisters would have their own secrets no matter how tight-knit their relationship was.

Qiao Dong Wan looked at her elder sister's sighing expression, leaned her head on her arm, and remarked softly, "Elder Sister, don't sigh. I will tell Elder Sister anything in the future and won't hide it from you."

Except for her double-sided personality.

When Luo Jun Liang returned home, he immediately brought up to his family his marriage with Qiao Dong He.

Although his dad, Luo Qing was a little surprised, he didn't object: "It's better to get married early, the two of you aren't young. Taking advantage of the current summer vacation to get the wedding done.It'll be one less thing for us to worry about later."

Mother Luo was a little unhappy: "Didn't you say that you won't get married until the end of the year at the earliest? Before, you were urged, you stepped down your foot on not marrying. Why are you so eager to get married now?"

At the beginning, Mother Luo was very satisfied with Qiao Dong He and Qiao Family.

Qiao Dong He had a quiet personality and looked like an easy-to-control daughter-in-law.

Her family was a well-known rich household in the town. What's more, they were god-relative with Shen Family. That's why, she was extremely satisfied with this marriage.

But later, because birthing matter, she realized that this future daughter-in-law was troublesome despite her quiet and reserved appearance!

She didn't think she did anything wrong in wanting them to get married and have children sooner.

It was only natural for a woman to continue the lineage. Since Qiao Dong He want to marry into their Luo Family, she must give birth to a descendant for their Luo Family!

Last year in September, the country had made birth-planning a basic national policy. No matter how tough one's background was, they can't over-birth!

Because of this, she was so furious that she laid sick in bed for a week.

If they had listened to her earlier, maybe her grandson would have walked by now!

Since then, she disdained Qiao Dong He.

If her husband and son hadn't like Qiao Family very much, she would get her son to find another good and obedient daughter-in-law!

Luo Jun Liang's eyes flashed, "Although the state provide career and assign them now, the number of accommodation is limited. These are prioritized to the married. I think it's better to get married quickly."

Hearing this, Mother Luo dropped her idleness just now and sat up, "Old Second, are you telling the truth? Can marriage really gain priority in allocating accommodation?"

Luo Jun Liang scratched his ears, "It's true, my classmates are in a hurry to go back and get married now. I was afraid that the quota would be occupied by others, so I told Dong He about this. Dong He understood and immediately agree to bring forward the wedding."

Mother Luo nodded in response: "Then she's still sensible. Since that's the case, go get the marriage certificate tomorrow!"

Luo Qing glanced at her, "It's not too late to get the marriage certificate after the wedding. Since we are asking Qiao Family, we should show our sincerity and add two hundred yuan to the wedding gift!"

When Mother Luo heard this, she instantly became displeased: "Four hundred yuan was enough. If you add another two hundred yuan, that'll be six hundred yuan. Which family will give this much wedding gift?"

Luo Qing glared, "Then do you want your son to get allocated an accommodation? Do you think Qiao Family's daughter can't marry without your son?"

With Qiao Family's current wealth and connections, a lot of people want to marry them!

Mother Luo pouted but remained silent.

Luo Jun Liang gratefully glanced at his dad.

After Mother Luo went out to buy groceries, Luo Qing went to his son's room and went straight to the point: "Did something happen between you and Dong He?"

Luo Jun Liang didn't expect his dad to be so keen. The tip of his ear was slightly red: "Nothing!"

Luo Qing scolded: "At this time, you still aren't telling the truth?"

Finally, Luo Jun Liang told the truth under his dad's interrogation.

After Luo Qing found out, he slapped him on the back: "Stinky boy, you're lucky that Qiao Family didn't kill you!"

Luo Jun Liang gasped from the beating.

Luo Qing spoke with a stern face: "You mustn't let your mom know about this. Or any one else! As for Qiao Family, I will give you another two hundred yuan in private to compensate them!"

Luo Jun Liang's eyes were slightly red, "Dad, thank you!"

Luo Qing snorted: "Say less useless things and treat Dong He well in the future, understand?"

Luo Jun Liang rapidly bobbed his head.

The next day, he went to Qiao's house again and told Qiao Dong He about it.

When Qiao Dong He knew, she covered her mouth and couldn't resist crying.

For more than half a month, she couldn't eat or sleep. She was worried that her family would scold them and look down on her when they found out about it.

Unexpectedly, her grandparents and her future father-in-law would be so tolerant with them!

Seeing her cry, Luo Jun Liang fumbled to wipe her tears in with his hands: "Don't cry. I heard that crying isn't good for baby."

Qiao Dong He stopped crying at once.

After Qiao Xiu Zhi and Xue Chuan knew Luo Family's attitude, they were relieved.

So the marriage between Qiao Dong He and Luo Jun Liang was quickly set. First branch in the capital only received the notice afterward.

At home, Wan Chun Ju broke into scolding but no one responded to her.

Once she was tired, she could only pack up and prepare to return to Yunlai Town.

Huo Chi decided to write a letter to Da Qiao.

That's right, this was one of his elder cousin brother's 'courtship move'.

According to his elder cousin brother's words, women were emotional creature. They like to listen to sweet words, but these kind of words weren't easy to utter out. So at this time, it was necessary to write a letter.

Write all the words that were hard to say into the letter. This way, the other party will find it very sweet and romantic when they see the letter. What's more, this can still be used as a memory and collection for the couple in the future.

Huo Chi racked his brain in front of the desk. After half a day, engineering student jim finally produced a 'romantic' letter.

After dinner that day, he secretly handed the letter to Da Qiao while no one was paying attention and told her not to let others see it.

Da Qiao held the letter. Her heart pounded as her face became red again.

She found some time and ran back to the room. With trembling hands, she took out the letter.

At first, the corners of her mouth were raised up. But when she saw one of its content, her brows suddenly frowned.

One paragraph said: "... When you smile, it always reminds me of the little kittens that are just born; delicate and cute. It make people want to protect it in their embrace. But when you are fierce, I will think of the little wild dog... "

Da Qiao was stunned; as if she was struck by lightning.

She can understand little kitten part, but similarities with a little wild dog...?

She remembered the wild dogs she had seen before; all were dirty and smelly. Many of them were fierce and often chased the children into tears.

Could it be ... this was Huo Chi's impression of her in his heart?

UNHAPPY.

Initially, Huo Chi wanted to say that she was like a little wild cat when she got fierce.

Elder Cousin Brother had said that girls generally like furry animals. They will be delighted when these small animals are used to describe them.

In a moment of excitement, he wrote the little wild dog instead of little wild cat.

So romance turned into thriller.

Prayer to him.

Later, this incident was known by Huo Chi's elder cousin brother.

He almost died on the spot from laughing. In the end, he wiped his tears and gave a feedback: noobie's flirting was the most embarrassing!
