6470--Andrew Fleeing

Qing'an County, He family.

Xiao An was drunk all day and night. When he woke up the next day, he remembered what happened yesterday except that Sanbao brought him a jar of wine in the open space behind the coaching field and encouraged him to come over to propose marriage when he was drunk.

Nothing else is known.

As for how he got to the He family, how he proposed marriage to the He family, and whether he even proposed marriage, he himself couldn't remember.

So the next morning, when He Lian'er came into the house with a basin of water to wash Xiao An, she saw Xiao An sitting on the bed, with a tired and haggard face after a hangover, holding his head with his hands, sitting completely

Stay there in a daze.

This is completely different from his usual image of a vigorous and resolute man. At this moment, he seemed to He Lian'er to be ten years younger, like a child, dull and a little cute.

He Lian'er took a deep breath, carried the basin into the house, and said softly: "Brother Xiao An, wash your face."

Xiao An came back to her senses and looked up at her busy figure, feeling a little uneasy.

Isn't she working in a restaurant? Why did she come home?

Yesterday, did I really do something stupid while drunk yesterday?

Xiao An, who had never been drunk before, wished he could punch himself.

"Brother Xiao An, what are you doing standing still? Do you have a headache?"

He Lian'er placed the water basin and waited for a while but didn't hear Xiao An's movement. She couldn't help turning her head and asking softly.

"Um...yes, a little bit."

Hearing Xiao An admit that she had a headache, He Lian'er immediately became nervous.

"I'll pour you a bowl of hot tea first. Maybe the alcohol is not over yet." He Lian'er added, and quickly poured the hot tea and brought it to the bedside.

Xiao Anxin took it absentmindedly, and took a few sips absentmindedly. From the beginning to the end, she didn't dare to look into He Lian'er's eyes.

He Lian'er stood by the bed, feeling shy and nervous. She and her mother slept in the same room last night, and the mother and daughter chatted for most of the night.

In front of her mother, He Lian'er also confessed her feelings.

Mother He sighed softly, feeling happy and sad at the same time.

Fortunately, Xiao An is a good man and reliable.

The sad thing is that He Qingsong is no longer here, and there are no sons in this family. If there is a marriage proposal, whether to marry or not is a bit tricky.

So He Lian'er came over to help Xiao An get up early this morning. It was at the request of He's mother that she asked him about his plans for the next step.

But Xiao An's evasive attitude was completely different from the bold and wild man yesterday who took the wine jar and threw out a bold word before pouring wine.

The girl felt a little disappointed, her eyes were a little dazed, her nose was sore and her eyes were red.

But she bit her lip lightly and didn't ask or say anything. When Xiao An drank tea, she obediently twisted the handkerchief for him and handed it over.

From beginning to end, there was no other communication between the two.

It wasn't until Xiao An finished washing up that he turned around and tidied his clothes.

He Lian'er picked up the basin and walked out. When she reached the door, she paused for a moment, turned around and whispered softly: "Breakfast is almost ready. Brother Xiao An, come over and eat after you finish it."

"okay."

He nodded, still not looking back at her.

During the time when the two were alone together, He Lian'er returned without success and felt disappointed.

Back in the kitchen, He's mother was waiting there. Seeing her come in, she quickly came up and asked, "How's it going? What did he say to you?"

He Lian'er smiled bitterly and shook her head gently: "Brother Xiao An just woke up from a hangover. He is not in a good condition and his head still hurts. We didn't say anything else."

"It's fine if you didn't mention it. Didn't he mention it even half a word?" He's mother didn't believe it and asked again.

He Lian'er nodded and began to prepare the dishes and chopsticks.

Mother He was a little confused now, "What is going on? He was very heroic yesterday. When he entered the door, he said that he was here to propose marriage."

"Is that all?" He Lian'er lowered her head and asked in a low voice.

"Yes, that's it."

He Lian'er's smile was a little forced, "Could it be that you are proposing marriage to someone else?"

Mother He was stunned for a moment, "How is that possible? Why would he drink so much to propose marriage to someone else? Besides, if he proposes marriage to someone else, then he is a matchmaker, and a matchmaker should have the way of a matchmaker, and he has to carry gifts.

Come in and tell me and your father the conditions for the marriage proposal!"

He Lian'er thinks so too.

Brother Xiao An most likely proposed marriage to him on his own.

She felt secretly sweet in her heart.

But when she thought of his cold and avoidant attitude just now, He Lian'er felt uneasy again. This feeling of being unable to figure things out was really uncomfortable.

Breakfast was placed on the table. Master Qiao was out on business today. The people eating at the table were the three members of the He family, plus Xiao An.

Xiao An couldn't remember what he did or said yesterday, and he was embarrassed to ask, so he sat there in strange silence.

When Father He and Mother He saw that he didn't mention what happened yesterday, they just thought that he was impulsive after drinking yesterday. Maybe he regretted it after taking a nap, so after the old couple exchanged a few glances, they both had a tacit understanding.

Mention what happened yesterday.

"Xiao An, eat more." Father He greeted.

"Well, Uncle He, you should eat more, you need to replenish your body now." Xiao An said.

Father He smiled and nodded, "Okay, okay."

The breakfast ended in such a strange atmosphere. After the meal, Xiao An hurriedly said goodbye.

"Lian'er, are you going back to the restaurant?" He thought for a moment and then turned back and asked.

He Lian'er glanced at her parents, and Mother He said with a smile: "You make up your own mind, don't look at us."

He Lian'er thought for a moment and said to Xiao An: "Brother Xiao An, please go back first. I asked the master for leave when I came out. I will return to the restaurant in two days."

"Oh...that's it, okay then."

Xiao An left a little lonely.

When Xiao An left, He Lian'er sat back on the chair, feeling a little exhausted.

The smile on He's mother's face also disappeared without a trace. She glanced at He Lian'er who looked gloomy, and then turned her questioning eyes to He's father: "Dad Lian'er, what's going on with this Xiao An..."

"I said it so boldly yesterday, but I didn't say a word about it this time. What do you mean? Are you going to let us, Lian'er, have fun together? That's outrageous!"

Father He glared at Mother He, "Don't talk nonsense, Xiao An is not that kind of person."

"You're not that kind of person, so why didn't you mention it today? Why didn't you take up yesterday's burden?" He's mother asked again aggressively.

Father He said: "He just woke up from a hangover. Maybe his head is still dizzy. He doesn't even know what's going on with him."

"You, don't blame him in a hurry. When he regains his breath later, I will find an opportunity for us to have a good talk."

Since He's father has spoken out for this reason, it's hard for He's mother to say anything.

"Lian'er, go and clear away the dishes." Father He ordered He Lian'er again.
