The concubine hesitated for a moment, and when she realized what her father had said, she smiled and reiterated her inner thoughts: "Dad, you'd better take it back. I will never give up on my cousin. I have always loved him and it has never changed!

"This time's expression was not as fierce and calm as before, but it was still very powerful.

At this moment, the concubine suddenly felt that it was good that her parents knew about her and her cousin's affairs, because she could finally openly express their love. Compared with the evasive concealment, such a head-on love moved her more.

She finally understood why her cousin always wanted to make their affairs public, because he loudly declared to the outside world: I love him (her)! It was a kind of love that was taken for granted and came from instinctive possession of love!

Father Xia did not expect that Feifei was still stubborn. He was so disappointed that he said with hatred: "Feifei, why can't you understand? You are cousins, you can't have children, and your marriage cannot be recognized by the law.

!”

With these two things alone, how can the concubine be happy in this life? She can't have children or get married, and can she live until she grows old relying only on love?

Qi Ji is an only son. The family has such a huge family business. If there is no heir to inherit it, his sister and brother-in-law will never agree. Even if Qi Ji has a child with another woman and inherits it, will the concubine accept it? He just

I'm afraid that my concubine will end up covered in bruises. It's better to be hurt now than to regret it later!

"Dad, I know everything you said, and I also want you to understand that love is not just about these. You and your mother are so loving. I believe you also know the true taste of love. I hope you can let me have a life without regrets in this life."

Love, I have grown up, I know what I need, please help us!" Concubine said as tears climbed into her eyes.

Dad Xia naturally believed that there was love between Feifei and Qi Ji, but he shouldn't! His rational analysis concluded that this was not a flower of love that would bear fruit. He could not let it continue to bloom until Feifei was old and lustful.

What should he do when he is in decline? His children should be happy. Just have a simple family. Ordinary happiness is the most real, just like he and Feifei's mother.

"My child, if you really grow up, you will understand why your father stopped you. In short, your father will never agree to this matter, so just give up!" Dad Xia left sadly after saying that.

He left Concubine alone to think slowly, and he hoped she would finally figure it out.

Concubine squatted on the ground, her tears falling into the bucket in front of her. The ripples reflected her uneasy mood at the moment. She still couldn't convince her father, "Cousin, what should I do?" Concubine murmured to herself.

, suddenly remembered my cousin’s words: “Don’t cry, don’t let your cousin worry...”

She bravely wiped her tears and tried to give herself a smile. She promised her cousin that she would never cry again!

After negotiating with her father again to no avail, the rejuvenated Concubine continued to do housework. When she turned around and walked to the bathroom with water, passing by the living room, she unexpectedly saw a special figure: Brother Lie!

Dad Xia and Brother Lie walked in while chatting and laughing.

"Brother Lie?!" Feifei called him in surprise.

"Yes, Concubine." Qi Lieyuan looked at her with a gentle smile. He saw that Concubine's hair was divided into two balls on both sides, like a Chinese doll. She was wearing a pink apron and yellow rubber gloves in her hands.

, was struggling to carry a bucket. He felt that Concubine was particularly simple and cute, so he walked over quickly and picked up the bucket in her hand.

"I'll help you, where can I take you?"

"Oh! No need, I'll do it." Concubine was embarrassed to let him do such a thing.

"It's okay, are you going to dump it?" Qi Lieyuan saw that the water was not clean.

"Well, please help me carry it to the bathroom over there." Concubine followed him, "Just put it there. Brother Lie, why did you come to my house suddenly?"

Qi Lieyuan walked out with her with a smile, "I thought I had not seen you for a long time, so I came to see you, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so I would like to wish you a happy New Year first, wouldn't you not welcome me?"

"No, how could it be? It's just...a little unexpected."

"Lieyuan, come and sit here." Xia's father invited Qi Lieyuan to go to the living room to drink tea.

"Well, okay, uncle." Qi Lieyuan treated Dad Xia with respect and courtesy. As before, he behaved decently and politely. Dad Xia had a very good impression of him.

The concubine took off her apron and gloves first, then followed her to the living room.

When she saw a bunch of big and small bags of things piled up in the living room, she asked in surprise: "These things? Brother Lie, did you bring them?"

"Well, just to be careful, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. I'm here to wish my uncle and aunt a happy New Year. Uncle and aunt, I'm very sorry that I haven't visited in many years!"

"Haha, I know you kids are busy, and my uncle and aunt will be very happy to have you here. Don't bring anything else here in the future, and don't see anyone outside." Dad Xia said very considerately.

Several people were chatting together in the living room. Qi Lieyuan was very good at chatting with the elders. He said that Feifei's father and mother were very happy. He also praised Feifei from time to time for being well-behaved and sensible, and caressed her hair lovingly. There was obvious excitement in his eyes.

Concubine is really afraid of being noticed by her parents.

"Lieyuan, it's rare for you to come to our house and have dinner here tonight? Auntie will cook you some of your favorite foods. What do you want to eat?" Xia's mother warmly invited.

"It's better not to trouble Auntie too much. I'll just come and sit here." Qi Lieyuan declined. In fact, he also wanted to stay and spend some time with his concubine.

"Lieyuan, don't be polite to uncle. Besides, I haven't had dinner with you for a long time. The last time I had dinner was more than ten years ago. Concubine, please talk to Lieyuan and I'll help your mother."

"Oh." Only Qi Lieyuan and Feifei were left in the living room. Feifei followed her father's instructions and invited Qi Lieyuan to stay for dinner, "Brother Lie, please have dinner at my house tonight. Mom's cooking."

It’s delicious.”

"Concubine, do you want me to stay?" Who knew Qi Lieyuan would ask such an ambiguous question.

Feifei blushed. She quickly looked back to see if her father was still there. She was embarrassed to be heard by him, "Brother Lie, don't say such things. It's rare for you to come to my house as a guest. It's right for you to stay for dinner."

Qi Lieyuan saw Concubine sitting far away with her head bowed, and wanted to pull her little hand to ask her to come closer. As soon as he touched her hand, Concubine quickly retracted her hand, frowned and shook her head at him.

She has not forgotten that she promised her cousin not to let brother lie touch her in the future.

Qi Lieyuan smiled bitterly, "I want you to sit closer, otherwise your father will hear us if we speak louder."
