"Sigh …!" Ming Xi poked Xue Qi's startled stomach with his elbow, then glared at her angrily. What was this man trying to do? You want to torture her again? Did he not know that being a bride was not as easy as being their groom?
He smilingly looked at the villagers standing not far from him, then lowered his head and smilingly looked at Ming Xi, "Wife, don't you know that the customs of Java people are very interesting?" In fact, he did not know the customs of Java people, but if he did not say so, Ming Xi would not agree to it at all. He really wanted to get married to Liu Xi a few more times.
"Is it really that interesting?" Ming Xi blinked her big eyes, curiously looking at Xue Qi in shock. Because she had never thought about it before, she did not search for it online.
"Yes." Xue Qi answered with great certainty.
"Then I want to marry you!" Ming Xi said domineeringly.
Xue Qi grinned in surprise and put his arm around Tantai Xi's shoulder. Then, he raised his head and said in English, "Fine, we agree!"
Upon hearing Xue Qi's words, Shimmy immediately turned around and began talking to the villagers, only to see those villagers passionately rushing Xue Qi and Liu Xi into the village, and then starting their preparations.
Ming Xi was pushed into another room by the village girls and started dressing up. She frowned as she watched them change her clothes in a few quick movements before she started to comb her hair.
This village was ancient and had a very national flavor to it. Ming Xi allowed the girls to comb her hair while she looked around with bored eyes.
Two hours later, Ming Xi had finally been completed by them. They waited in the room for a while before they all left the room, escorted by the girls. Because she couldn't speak the language of those people, she didn't say a word.
Her face was covered by some hanging ornaments. Each and every one of them was shining white. They were all — silver?!
Looking at the silver taels, Ming Xi's face twitched a few times. Didn't they have no money? All of these items were actually made of silver? Ming Xi's little face couldn't help but twitch slightly.
Later, Ming Xi was herded into another large courtyard, where the village's only English-speaking Simeon was waiting for her. He told her about the wedding rules before politely leaving. After almost two hours, Ming Xi finally heard footsteps outside. Her heart couldn't help but beat faster.
Ming Xi let those girls help her out of the room. However, the moment she stepped out of the room, she saw Xue Qi, who had already changed his appearance, standing in front of the gate in shock. Many people surrounded him, while he was much taller than them.
Ming Xi looked at Xue Qi in shock and slightly raised the corner of her mouth.
At the same time, Xue Qi looked at Ming Xi with a pleasant smile on his face.
Those young girls standing next to Tantai Xi saw the surprised smile on Xue Qi's face and started discussing in low voices. Although Ming Xi didn't understand what they were talking about, she could guess what they were talking about. They were definitely talking about how shocked Xue Qi was, and how handsome he was …
Xue Qi stared at Ming Xi in shock, then walked into Ming Xi step by step under the guidance of Xi Mi Da. However, when he was about to walk to Ming Xi's side, three people walked out of the house. One held a silver plate in his hand, another an egg, and another a basin of clear water.
They placed the silver plate in front of Xue Qi, and then placed the raw eggs on top of it. Xue Qi took off his shoes and broke the eggs in front of everyone.
Ming Xi saw that the egg was broken and smiled. Just now, Simda had said that stepping on the egg meant that the groom would always love the bride. Even if the bride was smashed to pieces, the bride's heart would never change!
Under the guidance of those girls, Ming Xi carefully washed the eggs on Xue Qi's feet.
However, during the washing process, Xue Qi smiled in surprise. Simda had just told him that when the bride washed his feet, it meant that she was grateful and obedient. Remembering the word 'obey', the smile on the corner of Xue Qi's mouth became wider and wider.
He hoped that the woman would actually obey him, but that seemed impossible.
Still, it would be nice to dream about it.
After the two of them finished doing all this, the surroundings burst into a series of loud applause. After that, Xue Qi walked up to the villagers in shock and directly carried Tantai Xi in his arms, turned around and walked towards the new house that the villagers had already prepared for them.
The two of them entered the bridal chamber amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the villagers.
After that, the villagers gave them a lively carnival. Ming Xi and Xue Qi were so surprised that they didn't finish all the programs until late at night. Back in their room, both of them collapsed on the bed, exhausted. "Let's go.
Thinking about what had happened today, both of them grinned in unison.
"Hubby, what are you laughing about?" Ming Xi curiously turned her head and looked at Xue Qi, who was lying beside her on the bed.
"Then why are you laughing?" Surprised, Xue Qi turned his head around and looked at Ming Xi as well.
"Ha!" "I'm just laughing. Today we were clearly here to catch a thief, and we actually had a fortuitous encounter. To think that we actually got married again." Ming Xi turned his head to the side, using his hands to support his head and seriously looked at Xue Qi.
At the same time, Xue Qi turned his head around in shock, raised his head and looked at Ming Xi, then said, "Me too!"
Hearing Xue Qi's surprised words, Ming Xi crawled a few times towards his side, and then directly fell asleep beside Xue Qi. After that, he put his arm around his waist and said in a low voice, "But, I've always been very confused. They say that their village is poor, but all those silver are piled in piles, how are they short of money?"
"I don't understand it either!" Xue Qi knitted his eyebrows in shock. He thought for a while, then continued, "Perhaps, they must use that silver. They can't sell it!"
"Maybe!" Ming Xi went to sleep on Xue Qi's chest in shock, and her sleepiness gradually came to her as well. Today, she had busied herself for the entire day. "Hubby, I'm so sleepy!"
"Then go to sleep!" Xue Qi carefully propped himself up from the ground. Seeing that Ming Xi was indeed tired and didn't want to torment her anymore, he gently took off her clothes and then moved her body onto the bed. He helped her cover herself with the quilt and then took off her clothes and squeezed onto the bed. He held Tantai and prepared to sleep.
However, Xue Qi lied on his bed and slept for a long while, but he still couldn't fall asleep. He kept feeling that the rough quilt kept him awake. He reached out to touch the blanket and couldn't help but frown. The bedding was new, but the material was too poor …
Xue Qi was so shocked that he kept tossing and turning. Even after two hours, he still couldn't fall asleep, and even felt that his skin was still itchy because of the fabric.
After enduring for another hour, Xue Qi was still so agitated that he couldn't fall asleep. In the end, he couldn't stand it any longer and pushed Ta Xi pitifully, "Wife, I can't fall asleep!"
Ming Xi was still sleeping soundly, but she was awakened by Xue Qi's nudging, nudging question, "Hubby, sleep tight, I'm so sleepy, don't bother me!"
"Wife, this blanket's fabric makes me unable to sleep!"
Ming Xi vaguely heard Xue Qi's surprised words and forced herself to open her eyes for a long time. The room was only lit by a night light, therefore, the light was very dim. She looked at Xue Qi, who seemed to be on the verge of knitting his eyebrows together, then asked in a low voice, "What happened?"
"I can't sleep! The material of this blanket is too poor, and the fabric is so worn that I can't fall asleep! " Xue Qi was so shocked that he almost started to complain. Hearing Xue Qi's words, a few black lines appeared on Ming Xi's forehead.
"You're a man, how come your skin is more delicate than a woman's?" Ming Xi exclaimed in a bad mood. Xue Qi was shocked and a little speechless. He looked at Ming Xi eagerly.
When Ming Xi saw Xue Qi's startled appearance, she felt a little helpless. In the end, she hurriedly reached out her arms to hug him and said in a soft and gentle voice, "Alright, husband, you can just barely hold on for one night, okay? Tomorrow, we will go back! "
"But, this quilt makes me feel itchy all over!" Damn poor quality quilt.
"It's fine, it's fine!" Ming Xi had almost pressed her entire body against Xue Qi's body, helping him to cover the blanket, "It can't be now, right?"
Xue Qi was surprised and wanted to continue complaining, but when he saw Ming Xi's eyes were about to close, he forced himself to open them. He frowned and said, "Wifey, it's much better now. Hurry up and go to sleep!"
In less than three seconds, Ming Xi had fallen asleep again.
Xue Qi hugged Tantai Xi's small and thin body and couldn't help but frown. He sighed and sighed in his heart. In the end, he still closed his eyes and forced himself to fall asleep.
After a while, Xue Qi hugged Tsai Xi in shock, smelled her unique scent and slowly fell asleep...
