C6 Cupid Candle

Before this, Zhou Qu's impression of Lee Wanning still existed in the person who smiled at him at the mountainside that day.

Today, Aunt Lee first cried about her pitiful daughter's reputation being ruined, then scolded herself for being irresponsible and causing her daughter to suffer such grievances. Before she was done, she told herself that if she didn't marry Lee Wanning, Lee Wanning would have to commit suicide by jumping into a river.

Since it involved a person's life, Zhou Qu was naturally at the mercy of Aunt Lee. Aunt Lee was not polite and took everything that she could see in this family away, then said that it was a betrothal gift for Lee Wanning and said that she would send it over to him another day.

Now, why was Lee Wanning here?

Just when Zhou Qu was about to go up, his second brother Zhou Heng already pulled him down and said, "This Li family is really greedy. Brother, if you go up so foolishly, you will definitely suffer a loss. Let me go!"

Zhou Heng was only two years younger than Zhou Qu. He was a scholar, but because of the family situation and Zhou Qu in front, there was a girl who liked him nearby, but her parents wouldn't agree.

Zhou Heng also knew that he wasn't worthy of her, so he gave up.

Originally, Zhou Heng was annoyed to see Aunt Lee today, but he didn't want to talk too much about his big brother's business. However, when he saw that Lee Wanning actually came over on her own, he immediately became angry.

Then, without waiting for Zhou Qu's reply, he went up and asked, "You're that Li family's girl?"

Lee Wanning looked at the person in front of her. Compared to Zhou Qu, his clothes were more similar. His facial features were also quite handsome.

"I am, and you are?" Lee Wanning answered directly.

Zhou Heng snorted and said, "I'm Zhou Family Two! "I wonder why Miss Lee is here now?"

Lee Wanning looked at the house behind him and said, "I'm going to get married soon. I just want to see what my husband's family looks like. Do you have any objections? "

Hearing Lee Wanning's righteous words, Zhou Heng's expression suddenly changed and he continued, "And then? What do you want to do now? Is it not enough to take from my house today? "

"Zhou Heng!"

Zhou Heng and Lee Wanning's expressions both changed slightly. When they turned around, they saw Zhou Qu already walking over.

He looked at himself apologetically and said, "It's like this. My little brother's character is quite straightforward, and he always says whatever he wants. Don't take offense to him."

This was the second time Lee Wanning saw Zhou Qu.

Lee Wanning had grown up talking about a world where one might not even get married after a few years of talking about love. She felt a little uncomfortable inside when she got her to accept someone she had only met twice to get married.

However, at this moment, Lee Wanning felt a strange feeling when she looked at Zhou Qu, who was standing under a big red lantern.

She pursed her lips and said, "It's fine, my mother …" "It's a bit too much."

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Zhou Qu immediately said, "Your parents raised you to such a big extent, I just feel that the betrothal gift was still a bit simple and crude."

Although Zhou Heng was pulled back by Zhou Qu, but the way he was staring at him was obviously because he didn't like Zhou Heng. Zhou Heng was pulled apart by Zhou Qu, but the way he was staring at me was obviously because he didn't like me.

Lee Wanning rolled her eyes and said, "It's fine. Actually, I know about your family's situation. Our family isn't that much better than yours. Although this wedding is a bit confusing, I feel that all of this is fate."

Lee Wanning still thought that she had a few good points when it came to judging people.

He didn't know if Zhou Qu was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, but at least he seemed to be a lot easier to get along with than Aunt Lee. And Lee Wanyao right now was because she still hadn't grown up yet.

It was impossible for Lee Wanning to stay in this damned place for her entire life, but in such a home, whatever she did would definitely be restricted. Rather than doing this, it would be better to stay at the Zhou Family and grow up.

Hearing Lee Wanning's words, Zhou Qu could only smile. Lee Wanning slowly turned around and said, "Then I'll go back first."

"It's dark, so it's not safe for you to be alone. I'll send you back."

As Zhou Qu said this, Lee Wanning did not refuse.

Zhou Qu looked at himself and said, "Miss Lee, you've seen what it looks like in my house. This number two is pretty good. Third …" Ever since I was bitten by a tiger on the mountain, I haven't dared to leave my home. I've been both a father and a mother since I was young, so there's no use … "

Before Zhou Qu finished his sentence, Lee Wanning had already turned around and said, "Since you are being honest like this, I will say it again. What about my family, my mother is dead, my father is in his fifties, and my stepmother thinks that I am wasting my time. I don't have a good reputation, but do you think, the two of us …"

Zhou Qu stopped talking. After staring at himself for a long time, he suddenly laughed.

He laughed, as did Lee Wanning.

Then, slowly, she said, "Everyone's birth can't be chosen, but I believe I have the possibility of changing my fate and will try. What do you think?"

Lee Wanning's eyes were filled with sincerity. After looking at it, Zhou Qu slowly nodded, "I believe you!"

Just like that, after Lee Wanning made a decision, Lee Changshou went to find a matchmaker in the village to check up on the days, and then he married Lee Wanning to her at the end of the month.

The bridal sedan was the only one in the entire village that was in tatters. Aunt Lee naturally wouldn't prepare any wedding clothes for him, but Lee Changshou took out a brand-new set of wedding clothes and said that he sold the hairpin Lee Wanning's mother left him to exchange.

Because of this matter, Aunt Lee had probably caused quite a stir with him.

Just like that, Lee Wanning, who couldn't be any more simple, donned on a bridal gown and got on a bridal sedan. A few young men from the village carried her and entered Zhou Family's door.

Even if Zhou Family had no parents, the village chief of Guxi Village had still handled the matter well. The two of them paid respects to heaven and earth, and paid respects to Zhou Family's parents' spirit tablets, and just like that, entered the bridal room.

Two days ago, Zhou Qu went to the mountain to hunt many prey and sold them for a price to invite the village's aunties and aunties to come over to cook. In addition to the three jars of red girls that Lee Wanning brought with her, every household drank the wedding wine of two people in Guxi Village.

The night deepened and the guests had left. Zhou Qu slowly opened the door.

Lee Wanning was sitting on the edge of the bed, her face covered with a red veil.

Zhou Qu's palms were sweating as he sat down beside her.

Lee Wanning wanted to laugh, but she managed to hold it in.

Zhou Qu slowly lifted her red hair.

Actually, Lee Wanning was not ugly, she was just a little thinner and darker. After two days of nursing, she had recovered quite a bit. Now, under the reflection of the dragon and phoenix candle, she looked even more charming.

Zhou Qu became even more nervous. Lee Wanning glanced at him and said, "Can I discuss something with you?"

Zhou Qu was stunned for a moment and then immediately nodded.

Lee Wanning looked to the side. She didn't know if anyone was listening to him, but this village probably didn't care either.

"Well, you see, we've only met for the third time today, haven't we?"

Zhou Qu nodded.

Lee Wanning said, "As for me, I'm rather slow to get acquainted with, and you want me to be with you tonight …" "I don't think so. I know you're a gentleman and the family is in a mess right now. Can we wait a month or two before we think about it?"

Lee Wanning spoke sincerely. After Zhou Qu's expression changed, he frowned.

Lee Wanning immediately said, "Look at your house, if you don't have a woman to take care of it, then it doesn't seem like a house. From tomorrow onwards, I will clean it properly, so tell me, if I get pregnant after we touch each other, what would you use to raise a child?"

Speaking of children, Zhou Qu immediately stood up and continued, "Touch a hand …" Just get pregnant? "

After pausing for a moment, Lee Wanning said, "Yeah!"

Zhou Qu stopped talking.

Lee Wanning wanted to hold him back, but she remembered what she had said earlier, so she could only hold onto his sleeve and said, "Don't worry, I won't be able to escape even if I stay here. We've already become Heaven and Earth parents, so we'll only have to delay it for two months. When the time comes, our relationship will be better, no …"

Lee Wanning did not say anything else. She knew Zhou Qu could understand her meaning.

Zhou Qu looked at the person in front of him and nodded even if he didn't agree.

Lee Wanning immediately laughed, picking up the cup on the table and said, "How about we have a drink?"

Zhou Qu obviously didn't know what it was like to exchange a glass of wine. Lee Wanning directly held his hand and the two of them crossed cups and drank up the wine.

Lee Wanning couldn't care about sleeping anymore. She could only sleep with the clothes on. The two of them slept on the same bed. She also trusted Zhou Qu, so she fell asleep just like that.

Other people said that a single moment of the Spring Festival Gala was worth thousands of gold, but Zhou Qu didn't think so. On the second day, he felt warm inside when he saw the already cooked food on the table.

Lee Wanning had already put the bridal dress away. She was wearing a set of green clothes and had a simple wooden hairpin on her hair. When she looked at it, it was completely dry.

Even if Zhou Heng had some objections towards Lee Wanning, he didn't say anything when he saw the items on the table.

Sitting next to him was Zhou Family, number three, Zhou Huai.

Although Zhou Heng's body wasn't as good as Zhou Qu's, it was still much better than Zhou Huai's.

Zhou Huai was as thin and yellow as a paper man. When he saw Lee Wanning, he would have turned and left if not for Zhou Qu pulling him along.

Zhou Qu said, "From today onwards, Aa Ning is your elder sister-in-law. They all say that elder brother is like father, elder sister is like mother. You have to respect her as much as you respect me, understand?"

There was no need to talk about Zhou Huai. Zhou Qu's words were meant for Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng snorted and was about to leave when Lee Wanning said, "Since your brother has already said so, let me say a few words."
