Chapter 10 Getting married

Li Mutian walked to the front of Tian's courtyard with his hands behind his back. Tian Yun, who was humming and squatting to choose vegetables in the courtyard, had already looked up and saw that it was Li Mutian, so she smiled shyly and said:

"Uncle Li!"

He put down the dishes in his hands, stood up quickly, and shouted into the room:

"Dad! Uncle Kida is here."

"it's me."

Li Mutian responded with a smile and looked Tian Yun up and down.

This girl has become more and more beautiful in the past three years, with a curvy figure and a slim figure. Although she is not handsome, her facial features are regular, and her smile has a unique charm.

"Not bad, not bad." Li Mutian raised his hand behind his back, but it was carrying a wild goose.

"Uncle Li is too polite."

When Tian Yun saw Li Mutian carrying something, she couldn't help but be startled. After taking a closer look, she suddenly exclaimed:

"Is this Yan'er?"

"Etiquette·Shihunli" says: "When the ceremony is at dusk, the ceremony is carried out. Use wild geese.

In the country of Yue, if a man wants to get married to a woman, he will come to the door with a wild goose. This ceremony is called nacai.

Farmers are small, and they can't stand complicated rules. In Lijing Village, let alone Yan'er, there are many people who come to propose marriage with nothing. Tian Yun is also the first to see someone accept the offer, and she just reacted.

"Do you care about my Xiang Ping?"

Li Mutian laughed and thought of teasing her.

Tian Yun had already turned red from her ears to her neck. She hesitated to hide it out of reservation and shyness, but she was afraid that Li Mutian would take it seriously, so she had no choice but to say:

"Rare!"

Tian Shoushui, who was in the house, just walked out of the door. Hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and the stone that had been weighing on his heart for a long time fell to the ground.

How could the father not see that his daughter's heart had already been fixed on Li Xiangping!

It's just that this kid is usually very tight-lipped, so people can't tell what he's thinking. Tian Shoushui is also afraid that his daughter will be embarrassed, so he never says a word.

"Brother!" Tian Shoushui called with a smile.

Tian Shoushui followed Li Mutian when he was five years old, and he joined the army with Ren Ping'an when he was twelve years old. The three of them worked together in the army to survive. They were not brothers but brothers.

Later, he returned to the village and killed the wealthy Yuan family. Jinpen then returned to farming. Li Mutian took good care of him, divided his land, and acted as a matchmaker to help him marry his wife.

He, Tian Shoushui, has shared weal and woe with the Li family. He even raised Li Changhu with his own hands, and he regarded him as closer than his own children.

How can he suffer if his daughter can marry into his family?

Tian Yun didn't know how many twists and turns her father had gone through, but she retreated as if running away when her father came out, which even made Li Mutian laugh.

"Brother, besides this marriage, there is also something important." Tian Shoushui shook his head helplessly and said seriously.

"What's the matter?"

Li Mutian raised his head in confusion.

"A few days ago, I went up the mountain and passed the Yuan family's ancestral tomb, and heard some noise. When I turned back to look for it, I saw nothing."

"Are there any members of the Yuan family who have not yet been killed?" Li Mutian raised his eyebrows and said gloomily.

"I think there are still some relatives who dare to secretly offer sacrifices."

Tian Shoushui felt uneasy and quickly comforted himself.

"Yes, what you said makes sense." Li Mutian gradually relaxed and nodded to Tian Shoushui: "I did ask about it back then, and there was nothing wrong with the five members of the Yuan family."

"Brother, I shouldn't have said such unlucky words in good times!" Tian Shoushui gave himself a slap in the face, making Li Mutian laugh softly.

Stepping out from Tian's house, Li Mutian walked on the dirt road with a calm face, looking at Mount Dali thoughtfully.

After discussing the marriage, Li Mutian hummed back to the courtyard and walked across the front yard. There were only three brothers chatting in front of the wooden table.

The youngest son Li Chijing is practicing with his eyes closed in the room. Although the moonlight is thin during the day and the progress is slow, Li Chijing practices hard day and night. No time is wasted.

In the courtyard, Li Xiangping was looking over and over at the "Jie Yin Fa". The cloth had been torn and wrinkled, and the ink marks were spread out a lot.

"Third brother, please be gentler." Li Tongya smiled and cursed lightly, but the knife and pen in his hand kept carving silently on the wooden slips.

The eldest brother Li Changhu was calculating the accounts carefully for Tian Qi. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and said:

"He's been struggling all morning."

Li Mutian stepped over the steps, took the tea from the wooden table, sat on the steps, and said casually:

"I went to Tian's house to propose marriage."

Hearing this, Li Xiangping jumped up from his chair and stared at his father anxiously.

"What did the Tian family say?"

"Tian Yun said she was jealous." Li Mutian slowly took a sip of tea and sighed comfortably.

"Okay, okay, great." Li Xiangping nodded excitedly.

"Hahahahaha..." The two brothers couldn't help laughing.

"Listen." Li Mutian was thinking about other things, put down his tea cup, became serious and said:

"Although the Immortal Road is very magical, who knows what kind of terror and crisis lurks there. Our Li family is very thin. If something happens to you, who will inherit this Li family?"

Seeing several young people becoming serious, Li Mutian waved his hand and said:

"This Dharma Book is both an opportunity and a disaster for my family."

"I hastily arranged an engagement for Chang Hu and got married. I hope he will give birth to an heir soon. I am just worried that something will happen and my Li family will still have a chance to survive."

"The same goes for you." Li Mutian pointed at Li Xiangping, then looked at Li Tongya and sighed helplessly.

"As for Tongya, I'm old and can't talk to you anymore. You have no interest in these women in the village, but you have to leave some heirs..."

Li Tongya nodded silently, and after a few breaths he spoke:

"Don't worry, Dad, I'm sensible."

"That's best."

Li Mutian wiped the white hair from his temples, worried in his heart.

I am almost sixty years old. Although I am in good health and have no worries about food and clothing, things in the world are unpredictable. It is better to arrange my family affairs as soon as possible!

"Father!"

A crisp cry interrupted the somewhat depressing atmosphere in the courtyard. Li Chijing rushed out of the room and stood in front of his brothers.

"I'm about to refine eighty-one rays of moonlight and condense the Xuanjing Wheel!" Li Chijing raised his head proudly.

"My Chijing is great."

Li Mutian had long heard his youngest son talk about the Xuanjing Wheel of the Fetal Breath Gate, and couldn't help hugging him happily, looking at the child and laughing.

Several brothers were also infected by the joyful atmosphere and smiled one after another. Li Changhu pinched Li Chijing's face and did not let go until the child complained repeatedly.

"The next time I pick up the talisman seeds, I have to wait until the summer solstice."

Li Tongya looked at the joyful courtyard and smiled, thinking:

"I missed the Hui Shuo Day because I was not prepared. The next time is the Summer Solstice. Just wait a few more days."

"Cultivation of immortality, Li Tongya is here."

He was quietly carving "The Method of Acceptance" on the wooden slips, but his heart was filled with turmoil and excitement.
