    Marriage.

    Getting married.

    Happy to be married.

    It was a day worth celebrating, a good day that Auntie Zhang had specially hired and picked out in advance.

    Under the watchful eye of the Xu system, Ah Niu, with a loud and powerful marriage procession and a coy smile, received his bride in her dowry.

    The red silk is brightly colored and hangs high in the openwork of the house.

    Lamps and candles flickered and were placed on top of the Waldorf offering table.

    People’s excited voices.

    As well as movement when walking.

    A breeze formed, blowing the flame at the tip of the red candle.

    Indirectly, it drove the shadows on the walls, creating a gentle spread of swimming.

    The interplay of light and shadow enveloped the newcomers as Niu and Jade walked into the house, overstimulated, causing their bodies to tremble slightly.

    “Worship the high church!”

    A master of ceremonies announced it loudly at the top of his voice.

    There is no process of worshipping heaven and earth.

    It is not by the favor of heaven and earth that those who seek to live are able to escape from the prison of demonic captivity.

    Instead, keep your feet on the ground, step by step until the soles of your shoes rot, and tread the path to tomorrow for yourself.

    So.

    At Ox’s marriage ceremony, only the parents of both parties were worshipped.

    The simple hanyou had proposed to the Xu system, saying that he wanted to pay his respects to the Xu system on this important day as well, to thank the Xu system for having taken care of him.

    But the Hsu system smiled and refused.

    “Ox, it wasn’t me who really kept you alive, it was you.”

    “If you really want to thank me, just send a crop of wheat in the fall harvest.”

    Hoo-!

    Hoo-!

    Hoo-!

    The well-dressed and formal Ox, led by the master of ceremonies, and the bride, whose head is covered with a red silk cloth, complete the final worship.

    People were uproariously wowed.

    The power of qi and blood, martial cultivation, roared over the house.

    Among them were the people of the Seeking Life Army and some of the new friends that Ah Niu had made, in the real world.

    For example, the martial transcendent who had participated in the Heavenly Sword Sect Boundary Market with the Xu lineage, the muscular and fierce man named Wang Dali.

    At the moment, he is in violent tears.

    Shouting, “Brother Ox must be happy!” .

    A scene like that was too comical, too blissful, so much so that the Xu system laughed out softly.

    “It went better than expected.”

    “Also, where are the accidents.”

    Wedding reception.

    Holding chopsticks in his hands, Xu System picked up a piece of tender roasted shrimp and placed it in his mouth to chew on it.

    At the same time, he withdrew the spiritual power that had enveloped the wedding mansion.

    From start to finish.

    He was all eyes on Ox’s wedding, keeping it safe so that certain unforeseen accidents wouldn’t happen.

    Good thing everything went well and nothing happened.

    According to the process, after the couple had completed their conjugal worship, Mr. and Mrs. Niu headed to the inner room for the more tedious rituals.

    Auntie Zhang was very attentive to this, and told Ah Niu a lot of things.

    “Mother, I know!”

    Ox responded with a simple smile.

    The newlyweds entered the inner room and the spacious wedding hall was left with guests pushing their glasses.

    ……

    The case of the Xu system and Wu Yingxue is more special.

    Two people had a large red table all to themselves.

    On the table, dishes were plentiful, hot and cold.

    The Xu system ate slowly, chewing the food in his mouth and seeing the passing years in his eyes.

    “I hope Niu will always be happy in the future”, he wished silently in his heart.

    There is no longer a shortage of rice.

    No one starves to death anymore.

    Rightfully so, it’s time for little Mr. Bull to have his own happiness.

    “Sir, open your mouth, ah-“

    There was a voice in his ear.

    Xu System subconsciously opened his mouth until the fried balls entered his mouth, and only then did he realize, as an afterthought, what the Sheriff beside him had done.

    “Sir, you can’t look sad on a big day.”

    “Here, have some more.”

    Wu Ying Xue sat beside Xu System, wearing a long light green dress, her hair stuck with hairpins, her eyes smiling in the shape of a curved moon.

    And then with a swiftness.

    Into the bowl of the Xu system, a mountain of food was built up.

    The cloud-embroidered cuffs of the coat followed the girl’s movements, undulating and dimpling on the table, showing the contours of her arms.

    “Yingxue.”

    “What is it, sir?”

    “Actually, I’m not very hungry coming up.”

    “Huh!?”

    The Sheriff blinked.

    She seemed to be in the habit of equating her own meal size, to that of Xu’s system, and prepared too much food for Xu’s system.

    If Xu didn’t eat, wouldn’t her previous behavior of pinching the food be tantamount to adding to the trouble?

    “It’s okay, Yingxue.”

    Seeing the girl’s embarrassment, Department Xu smiled and said, “I’m not so bad that I can’t even finish this bit of rice, as long as you don’t pinch me a new one.”

    “Really, sir?”

    “Well, it’s true.”

    Xu Xiang held his chopsticks and ate slowly.

    Wu Ying Xue sat beside her, perhaps because she was wearing a long dress, her movements were much more gentle than usual, chewing and swallowing slowly, with a dignified demeanor.

    Occasionally.

    It also organizes itself.

    Fiddling with the green silk on her forehead, adjusting the hairpins in her hair, smoothing out the neckline of her bodice.

    Did the gentleman notice these irregularities?

    Will that create ill will?

    Want to be a little more subtle to look prettier and make a better impression on Mr.?

    Similar thoughts hovered in the Sheriff’s mind as she ate, making the pace of eating slower and slower, and even her appetite much smaller.

    The sun was shining and the light was hazy and blurred, just like the girl’s pondering heart.

    Eventually.

    Wu Ying Xue gave up on the have-nots.

    Because the Xu system noticed her restlessness and tapped her forehead.

    “It already looks good and doesn’t need to go through more changes.”

    The gentleman said it was very nice.

    It’s from the gentleman himself.

    So the Sheriff hemmed and hawed and completely subsided.

    While eating the dishes of the wedding banquet, he follows the example of the Xu system, observing the guests at the wedding banquet and witnessing the turning point in Aniu’s life.

    “Are you interested in getting married, sir?”

    The Sheriff asked suddenly.

    The Xu system thought for a moment and shook its head, “Not really, I just want to be complete and witness the end of Aniu’s wedding.”

    The passage of time is silent.

    Forever forward.

    The naive young man who had once followed the Xu system with a mouthful of Big Brother Xu had finally reached the point of starting a family.

    The Xu system smiled, happy to witness that growth and pleased with it.

    “That ……”

    The Sheriff’s voice paused, “Has Mister ever thought about when he will be married?”

    Fingers entwined in hair.

    From time to time, it goes around in multiple circles.

    At times it all loosens up.

    Wu Ying Xue asked while looking away sideways, her tone light, as if she was just asking casually.

    “About that, I don’t have much of an idea at the moment.”

    The Hsu system answered truthfully.

    “Oh?” , Wu Ying Xue’s eyes narrowed slightly and her tail tone lengthened.

    She put down the dishes in her hands and made a fist shape, pressing it against her mouth and coughing lightly a few times.

    “Cough, cough, cough!”

    Seems to be clearing the throat.

    Again, it’s like a feat of bravado.

    Taking a deep breath, he spoke in a solemn voice under the puzzled gaze of Department Xu, “Sir, I have a bold proposal.”
