Chapter 68 [Escape is not a way]

Chapter 68 [Escape is not a solution]

After being stunned for a while, Zhao Lixing suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahaha, Lao Ai, it seems that we have to save this bottle of wine with you, and we can't drink it today!"

Zhao Lixing said this right now. If Ai Changhu said it, it would be a bit like Ai Changhu didn't want Zhao Xinnan and Ai Yige to get married now.

Hearing Zhao Lixing's own words, Ai Changhu's expression also eased a little, and he laughed and said, "Haha, if you don't drink it, you won't drink it. Anyway, this bottle of wine belongs to us, so it won't run away even if it's left here."

Chen Fengying and Zhao Xinnan's mother also followed suit. Although everyone was a little regretful, they still accepted the result. However, Zhao Lixing and his wife came here in vain this time, just to get married for the second child. They had thought that there would be some resistance if they were not good, but the result was completely contrary to the idea. Ai Yige was the idea of ​​supporting several elders. On the contrary, Zhao Xinnan, who originally thought that there would never be any mistakes, became the most determined opposition force, and it was so unquestionable.

Holding Zhao Xinnan's hand, Ai Yige found a gap and said, "Actually, this bottle of wine may not be able to drink today. Anyway, my father hasn't been in the kitchen for several years. I was so excited that I cooked two dishes. I think Uncle Zhao might as well drink this bottle of wine with my dad. It's only a matter of time before my heart and I can't drink this wine until the day I get married, right?"

Zhao Lixing was naturally satisfied when he heard this. He looked at Ai Yige with a smile. The more he looked at him, the more he felt that this son-in-law was sensible and much better than his daughter. He couldn't help but envy Ai Changhu a little.

Ai Changhu laughed loudly, and felt that his son showed his face to him, and said to Zhao Lixing: "Why don't we drink it today?" With a tone of discussion, but anyone could hear that Ai Changhu did want to kill this bottle of wine that obviously had a very symbolic significance. Although there was no engagement ceremony, for the two elders, this bottle of wine was far more symbolic than engagement or even marriage. This was their wish more than thirty years ago, and now it has finally been achieved. Naturally, they would not think that there would be any other tricks between Ai Yige and Zhao Xinnan, so the significance of this bottle of wine would be even more amplified.

As if hesitated for a moment, Zhao Lixing still slapped the handrail of the sofa: "Okay, then drink this wine tonight! Xinnan, Xiao Ge, you two will also drink some with us two old men tonight. This bottle of wine is older than you!"

Ai Yige also smiled and replied: "Okay, but it's not just me and Xinnan who want to drink it, but my aunt and my mother also have to drink it. The bottle of wine is probably doubled now, and you two can only taste it lightly. Everyone will drink it each, and the amount is just right."

Zhao Lixing and Ai Changhu looked at each other and laughed, and said in unison with a tacit understanding: "Now the situation is about to change. The younger generation is starting to take care of us old things!"

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled again.

Chen Fengying and Zhao Xinnan's mother suddenly seemed to be in the same mood and said together: "I just want them to take care of you two, otherwise..." Before I could finish, the two of them also discovered something was wrong. When did they have such a tacit understanding?

Even Zhao Lixing and Ai Changhu were shocked and laughed casually. In the laughter, Zhao Lixing shook his head and said, "Old Ai, now we are the targets of criticism. I was in a daze and thought I had returned to that period!" Everyone knew what the year was. Although these two people were extremely poor descendants with a strong root, they would not have been able to join the army in the turbulent era. At that time, the qualification review of the military was much more difficult. However, I have been influenced by the eyes and saw and heard how too many people were criticized and criticized, so there is a saying.

Ai Changhu laughed loudly. Obviously, although the purpose was not achieved today, he was of course very happy to see that Ai Yige seemed to be becoming more and more decent and sensible. As for the two small marriages, it must be postponed. Since it was not proposed by Ai Yige, Ai Changhu naturally would not have any thoughts in his heart.

Everyone smiled happily, but Ai Yige had no reaction. He just continued to hold Zhao Xinnan's little hand and turned his face to look at her. Zhao Xinnan was somewhat uncomfortable with Ai Yige holding his hand in front of his parents, but he didn't dare to pull it out, so he had to let Ai Yige hold it, but his face turned red. The elders who looked at him were naturally tacitly happy again.

The meal was already done and the time was almost over. Everyone naturally went to the dining room with laughter. Ai Yige took the initiative to take the bottle of wine, crushed the wax seal, opened the bottle cap, and the smell of wine was scented.

Wine itself is not a good wine, but the wax seal has been sealed for 30 years. In addition, the wines in that era were all brewed with pure grains. Unlike now, almost all of them are blended wines. No matter how bad the wine is, it has become a strong aroma.

In the scent of wine, Ai Yige poured about one or two taels of wine in front of everyone, and the bottle was empty. After thirty years, the wine naturally evaporated a lot, but the degree was getting higher and higher.

After dinner, several elders sat in the living room chatting, while Ai Yige held Zhao Xinnan's hand and left the house together at the joint request of several elders. The elders spoke in unison, with obvious attitudes that were obvious, and they all let their young people live the life of young people, and not care about the old men and women.

After leaving the door, Ai Yige asked Zhao Xinnan with a smile: "Where are we going?"

Zhao Xinnan felt a little natural at this time. She always felt quite unnatural when she was held by Ai Yige in front of her parents.

"Just go and go to Zhongshan Gate."

Ai Yige nodded, and the two of them held hands and walked out of the gate of the military compound and slowly walked towards the Zhongshan Gate to the east.

It was not far away, just one stop from the bus, and it took ten minutes to get there. The two of them slowly climbed the city wall, looking at the city of Nanjing, which is different from the past and the moat at the foot of the outer wall of Zhongshan Gate. They have now been blocked at both ends and have been renamed Crescent Lake.

"Why did you agree with their marriage just now?" Zhao Xinnan asked while standing side by side on the city wall, looking at the shimmering Crescent Lake under his feet.

Ai Yige turned his face and smiled: "Then why do you object again?"

"Nonsense, you have so many women, you still have the nerve to ask me why I object?" When talking about this topic, Zhao Xinnan was somewhat jealous. It is true that she could let Ai Yige deal with it herself, but if she didn't have any jealousy in her heart, it would be purely a fool.

Ai Yige was a little embarrassed by Zhao Xinnan's snatching words. He seemed to feel that he had asked a particularly stupid question. He could not answer it, so he could only reach out to touch his nose and hide his embarrassment.

Seeing his appearance, Zhao Xinnan rolled his eyes again: "I'm not afraid that you will make things difficult for you, who knows that you will end up agreeing with their opinions. If I had known that I wouldn't say anything, it would depend on you to do!"

It seems that Zhao Xinnan still had some complaints in her heart. She always felt that she was unwilling to obey her father's opinions because of Ai Yige. Unexpectedly, Ai Yige actually took advantage of this. She knew that Zhao Xinnan would object to the end, so she deliberately said something nice. Although she loved Ai Yige very deeply, Zhao Xinnan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and she felt that Ai Yige was not so consistent. Although before that, Ai Yige had never concealed or deceived her.

Hearing this sentence, Ai Yige naturally understood what Zhao Xinnan said, and couldn't help but sighed faintly: "Actually, I'm not doing anything good at taking advantage of it. When I heard that Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao were coming, I was also thinking in my heart whether they were here to urge us to get married. To be honest, I was indeed very nervous and a little resistant. No matter what the reason was, I had indeed had such an idea. But when you objected, I suddenly felt relieved. In fact, this day is a matter of time, and I have to face these things sooner or later. Early or late, the difference is not too big."

"You have thought about how to tell other women? They are so willing to be your... lovers?" Zhao Xinnan even felt a little bit gritted her teeth when she said the last two words. She felt very dazed. Why did she seem to be encouraging her fiancé to find a lover, but she still spoke so naturally. After saying that, she sighed in her heart, maybe, this is fate!

Ai Yige was also choked by this sentence. He was indeed speechless, but Zhao Xinnan asked, and he still had to answer, but he couldn't answer.

"I don't know how to explain some things to you, not to you, but to everyone. Anyway, something that cannot be explained by common sense has happened to me, which has led to me being unable to abandon any of you. Unexplaining is also an explanation. You can think that this is me making an excuse for my behavior. In addition to you, there are four... Alas, I guess you have known all this for a long time. You were originally doing intelligence work. I used to think that you would not investigate me secretly, but now it seems that you know everything about me." At this point, Ai Yige looked at Zhao Xinnan, but found a hint of pride flashing on the girl's face. Ai Yige could only smile wryly and bent.

"Jin Kezhu, I guess you know who she is. If I have anything to worry about among you, it is Kezhu. This girl is really a weak person, as clean as a piece of white paper. If I marry you now, if I want to talk about the influence, probably only Kezhu will be affected, and the others will not change any other ones."

"That's all. Anyway, you don't plan to really marry me, so wait, when you are sure of everything." Zhao Xinnan glared at Ai Yige, and the last sentence felt a little sour.

Ai Yige felt this keenly, and reached out to capture Zhao Xinnan's tall figure in his arms: "I said that when you objected, I was relieved at that moment. I think that sooner or later there will be such a level, and I can't escape. Although our marriage has been temporarily put aside, I am also planning to find some time to have a good talk with Ke Zhu. It's not a big deal to deceive this way."

Zhao Xinnan leaned in Ai Yige's arms, raised her head and looked at him strangely, and said hesitantly: "I have seen her, it really looks pitiful. I'm not saying that kind of pity, but I just feel that if someone sees her, they will feel pity. Otherwise, don't tell her for the time being, I'm afraid she won't stand it..."

Ai Yige felt infinite emotion in his heart. Zhao Xinnan, what a good girl this is. Yes, she has some irreconcilable shortcomings, such as impulse, violence, and sexuality as fierce as fire. However, she also has advantages that many people cannot compare with, that is, kindness and extreme kindness. In this regard, Zhao Xinnan is no less than anyone else.

This made Ai Yige feel more distressed to Zhao Xinnan, and he was reluctant to let her suffer any harm: "Since it's something that I have to say sooner or later, there is no difference between early and late."

"Well..." Zhao Xinnan agreed obediently. Why didn't she want Ai Yige to explain it clearly? But after thinking about it, she still murmured and asked: "Do you love her very much?"

Ai Yige hesitated for a moment. No matter how he viewed this issue now, he could not say anything about a woman who was about to marry him and told him that he loved other women.

But to this day, what else can Ai Yige say? He could only admit calmly: "Well, I love her very much. But I love you too... This situation is very rare, I really don't know how to tell you. But my feelings for you are the same, there is no difference between urgency and severity, they are the same, the same..." In the end, Ai Yige's voice also lowered. Maybe he was not sure, was it really the same?

"I wouldn't object if I had known it. Now I'll go back and tell them that we'll get the certificate tomorrow!" After a while, Zhao Xinnan, who felt enough sincerity and warmth in Ai Yige's arms, suddenly pushed Ai Yige away and said with a little anger.

Ai Yige looked at Zhao Xinnan with a smile, and answered without any awkwardness in his heart: "Okay, then we will get the certificate tomorrow."

"Are you real or fake?" Zhao Xinnan widened her eyes.

Ai Yige still smiled and said, "As long as you want, it's true. I can't bear to let Kezhu get hurt, but I can't bear to see you continue to be wronged. Although this choice is difficult and the decision is difficult, I have to do it. Look, I will find a suitable opportunity to talk to Kezhu about this matter. It's time for her to know. Although I still don't know how to talk to her. No matter what, escaping is never the solution."
