Chapter 823
Ning Su was startled and subconsciously wanted to put away the cloth shoes.
Unexpectedly, his hand shook and his shoes fell to the ground with a clatter.
He leaned down to pick it up, but Luo Fengtang had already picked it up and held it in his hand.
Luo Fengtang glanced at the shoes in his hand and recognized them at a glance as Xiaoyu had given them to Brother Ning last time.
He put his shoes down on the table and grinned at Ning Su.
"Well, seeing that there are still lights on in your barracks, I guess you haven't slept, so I came over here, hehe."
He laughed dryly and explained.
Ning Su also came to his senses and calmed down.
"I drank a little too much in the restaurant at night, so I wanted to sit for a while to eat before going to sleep."
He said, taking off the shoes and putting them on the stool behind him.
Luo Fengtang also nodded. The two of them stared at each other, each with their own thoughts.
The good brother who usually spoke freely and held candlelight conversations at night was now mute.
Luo Fengtang remembered the order given by a certain woman with her arms akimbo at the door of the shop, and bravely broke the awkward silence first.
"What about it? It's a long night, and I happen to be full and can't sleep. What about our brothers?" he asked.
Ning Su smiled and nodded.
Luo Fengtang organized some words in his mind and continued: "We have worked together for a long time. Even if you call me brother, I have never cared about your personal affairs."
"Brother Ning, how old are you this year?"
When asked this question, Ning Su's head was full of black lines.
"Brother Fengtang, you are really forgetful. We are the same age and I am a month younger than you!" Ning Su said.
Luo Fengtang patted his head, as if he was in a daze.
"Haha, I drank a little too much tonight and my brain doesn't work very well. I'm sorry."
Ning Su laughed again, stood up and made a bowl of tea for Luo Fengtang, and also made a bowl for himself.
Sitting down again, Luo Fengtang began to ask again: "Eighteen years old, we are not young anymore."
"In our Changping Village, men can get married at the age of sixteen, and children at my age can already walk." He said with a smile.
Ning Su asked: "If that's the case, why aren't you married yet, Brother Fengtang?"
Luo Fengtang glared at Ning Su: "I'm asking this question because Qing'er is young and I have to wait for her!"
Ning Su suddenly realized, smiled and nodded: "Brother Fengtang is really a responsible and good man, I admire you brother."
Luo Fengtang waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's nothing. When you are like me one day and meet the girl you like, you may be able to wait and waste more time than me!"
"By the way, speaking of this, Brother Yu takes the liberty to ask you, you are eighteen years old, has your family made an engagement for you?"
Luo Fengtang asked.
Ning Su was startled for a moment, then shook his head: "We haven't made an engagement yet."
Luo Fengtang asked again: "Does your Majesty Zun Lingtang have a favorite candidate?"
Ning Su hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "I have a cousin from my aunt's family who grew up with me as my childhood sweetheart. My parents admire her very much and often praise her."
Luo Fengtang was silent for a moment: "Your parents like her, but what about you? What do you think?"
Ning Su was stunned for a moment and looked at Luo Fengtang, a little confused.
"Brother Fengtang, I forgive you for being stupid and not quite understanding what you said..."
Luo Fengtang got straight to the point: "Are you attracted to your cousin? Do you also want to marry her as your wife? Or is this just what your parents want?"
Hearing this, Ning Su smiled.
"Is there any difference? If my parents mean this, what do I mean? Why does it matter?" he asked.
"I can't say whether I like my cousin or not. Anyway, we grew up together, so we know her well and are a good match."
Hearing Ning Su's words, Luo Fengtang was speechless.
"Brother Ning, haven't you ever thought about marrying a wife and sleeping on the same quilt for the rest of your life? This is your own business and you have to make your own decision!"
After a moment of silence, Luo Fengtang said again.
"Can you sleep with a woman you don't like?" he asked.
Ning Su shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't slept yet."
"Did you sleep with Brother Fengtang? Was it Qing'er?" Ning Su also gossiped.
Luo Fengtang gave Ning Su a look of contempt: "Nonsense, who else could it be if it wasn't Qing'er!"
After finishing speaking, seeing Ning Su's ambiguous smile, Luo Fengtang realized that he had let something slip.
"Qing'er and I are innocent. We just slept together. Don't think blindly!" He quickly explained, but his suspicions grew darker and darker.
In the end, I was so anxious that I was sweating profusely.
Hey, I have long said that I am not suitable to come here to do this errand of inquiring. Look, I didn’t ask the questions I should have asked, but I have shaken myself out!
Luo Fengtang touched his nose and planned to ask the last question.
"So, Brother Ning, what kind of girl do you think is the prettiest? The one that suits you best?" he asked.
After asking, I was ashamed.
Ning Su was also obviously surprised and looked at Luo Fengtang.
"Brother Fengtang, what's wrong with you tonight? Why are you talking strangely?"
"Hey, don't worry about me. Just tell me, do you think a girl like that is the prettiest?"
"Your Qing'er kind..."
"Well……"
Luo Fengtang's eyes widened: "Qing'er is my wife, no matter how beautiful she is, you can't look at her!"
Ning Su smiled: "Hahaha, Brother Fengtang, I was joking with you."
"Youdao is a friend's wife and cannot be bullied. Brothers understand this..."
Luo Fengtang interrupted Ning Su rudely: "Since you understand, then stop talking nonsense and quickly tell me what kind of girl you like!"
"Are you aggressive? Or are you gentle and shy?"
Ning Su touched her nose, "I think it's because men don't like their wives to be as aggressive as a yaksha, right? As for women, it's better to be gentle."
Luo Fengtang didn't like hearing this even more.
"Who says that aggressive girls can't be gentle?" he defended.
"A girl who is fierce means that she is independent, strong and capable."
Just like my Qinger!
"The gentle one loves to cry and cry, which makes her very annoying."
"Maybe it's bad. One thing is true in front of others and another behind your back. It's not like there are no such girls!"
Speaking of this, Luo Fengtang thought of his aunt's cousin Zhou Xia.
I remember how weak and pitiful I was back then, the master who would shed tears even if he stepped on an ant to death.
Who knew she would put those shameful things in his rice, which would make him almost fall into her trap!
Several months have passed since the incident, but when I think back, I still feel scared!
Luo Fengtang's words seemed to have greatly touched Ning Su.
It seemed to make Ning Su think of something.
He fell silent and sat there completely silent.
Luo Fengtang couldn't bring herself to ask Xiao Yu directly, as that would embarrass Xiao Yu.
Looking at Ning Su like this, I guess he wouldn't be able to get anything out of him if he asked again.
Luo Fengtang simply stood up and said, "Although marriage matters are dictated by parents and matchmakers, as children, we cannot blindly listen to everything."
"I'm not inciting you to do unfilial things, Brother Yu. I just want to remind you to make more plans for yourself when the time comes."
"I won't say much else, I just want to rest!"
