Chapter 384 Engagement
Although the engagement was not held in a grand ceremony, the Mi family still attached great importance to it and summoned all the direct family members. It was also the first time that Kaiyang met the eldest son of the Mi family.
Boss Mi has a fair face, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a straight nose, rosy lips and white teeth.
His hair was shiny black and was fixed on top of his head with a jade hairpin.
He is tall and straight, but he doesn't look stout. Instead, he gives people a slender and elegant feeling.
He was wearing a green gown with the hem fluttering in the wind. He had a white belt around his waist inlaid with an emerald green jade pendant, which made him look even more elegant.
He held a folding fan in his hand and waved it gently. There was a landscape painting on the fan, which complemented his temperament.
His eyes are clear and bright, revealing a hint of bookishness, making people feel that he not only has outstanding appearance, but also has a profound cultural heritage.
His smile was gentle and kind, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, with a hint of imperceptible cunning, which made people want to get close to him.
In general, Mr. Mi looks respectable and gentle, which makes people unable to help but like him.
He was very interested in this brother-in-law who suddenly appeared, and was always observing Kaiyang openly and secretly.
Even during the engagement ceremony, Mi Lao Er was not allowed to come out for a while, and Mi Lao Da was very surprised!
"Mom, my second brother hasn't come back yet?" That's impossible, right?
It is so difficult to get leave in their college. His mother brought him back early this morning. How could the second brother, who has been doing nothing all day, not be called back?
Mrs. Mi rolled her eyes at her eldest son, saying that he was talking about something irrelevant and refused to answer!
Boss Mi raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, something's happening."
Normally, mother loves the second child the most. Did something happen here that she doesn’t know about?
Interesting, I'll ask the third brother sometime.
Mi Laosan was confused. What? The hero he wanted to be his disciple was actually the husband he found for his younger sister?
great!
Originally I didn’t know how to get closer to the “expert”!
Isn't this just a pillow given to you when you feel sleepy?
Brother-in-law, won’t it be convenient to ask for advice in the future?
Therefore, his burning gaze always wandered to Kaiyang.
Kaiyang: ...
Mr. Mi: My wife is so proactive! She told me last night that she had found a boyfriend for my daughter, and she got engaged today?
It turns out that yesterday you either discussed it with me or informed me.
All right! Anyway, my wife is the one who makes the decisions on all matters big and small at home.
Back then, because he loved to play, his parents thought he was not doing his job properly, so his mother found him a powerful wife to take care of him.
I've gotten used to being controlled for my whole life.
This guy looks okay, right? Of course, he is far from what he looked like when he was young.
Mrs. Mi invited the elders of the Mi family to preside over today's engagement ceremony. Although it was a bit hasty, the necessary procedures still had to be followed.
Parents from Kaiyang could not come, after all, the two places were too far apart. To show their importance, several managers from the Chuzhou office sat on the chairs of Kaiyang elders.
The elders who temporarily took over Kaiyang and the Mi family arranged a marriage for Kaiyang.
From then on, Kaiyang became Mi Duoduo's fiancé, and he could come to the Mi family to visit his fiancée openly.
No longer needing to jump over the wall or climb over the roof, the two little ones could have a secret rendezvous.
Of course, I can’t enter a girl’s bedroom casually anymore.
Mi Lao Da came close to Mi Lao San to inquire about Kaiyang's situation. Mi Lao San excitedly described to him the scene when Kaiyang fought off the thugs who came to cause trouble at the gate of Mi's house.
Mi Lao San: "That guy raised his hand and slapped one away, and kicked another away, slap slap..."
Boss Mi narrowed his eyes and said, "Aren't those people good friends with you? Why would they come to our house to cause trouble?"
Mi Laosan paused and said, "I'm not talking about Kaiyang, why are you focusing on the ruffian?"
Boss Mi looked at the guilty Boss Mi and thought to himself that there was something he didn't understand. This guy must be bringing trouble to the family!
Boss Mi’s fist has hardened, good!
When I'm not at home, this younger brother lets himself go. Has he forgotten that he has an older brother?
That will teach him a lesson!
Seeing the unfriendly look in his elder brother's eyes, Mi Lao San quickly changed the subject.
"Brother, do you know why my second brother didn't come?"
Mi Lao Da glanced over with interest, and Mi Lao San quickly leaned over to his eldest brother's ear and told him the information he had just learned.
"I heard that our future brother-in-law carried our second brother back home last night. Mom was so angry that he is still kneeling in the ancestral hall copying the family rules!"
Boss Mi said calmly, "Oh? This brother-in-law is quite capable. He was able to catch the second brother. Not bad."
Mi Laosan: That was a close call. I managed to get away with it.
Boss Mi remained calm: Humph! I can't punish you here, I'll settle the score with you tonight.
Seeing that he had nothing to do now, Boss Mi found an opportunity to slip out. He came to the ancestral hall and peeked inside through the window.
Mi Lao Er was kneeling in front of a small table, facing the ancestral tablets and carefully copying the family rules, and the house rules were opened to... the first page.
There were already a lot of crumpled papers on the ground. Oh! They were discarded.
Boss Mi curled his lips and chuckled, very good!
The second child usually hates reading and writing, so copying the family rules is really the biggest torture for him.
Mi Lao Da pushed the door open, and Mi Lao Er screamed, "Ouch!" It's over!
It’s over, it’s over. The sound of the door being pushed open startled him and his handwriting was ruined again. He had only finished writing more than half of the paper with great difficulty.
Mi Lao Er turned around angrily and was surprised to see it was his eldest brother.
"Brother? Why are you back? It's not time for the holiday yet!" As soon as he said this, he remembered that mother said she wanted to arrange a marriage for his younger sister today.
He complained with a look of disdain: "It's just an engagement, not a wedding. Why would you call you back from the academy and make a fuss about nothing?"
Boss Mi: There is a lot of resentment!
"Second brother, what did you do?" Were you punished by mother to kneel here?
Mi Lao Er touched his nose uncomfortably, put down his pen and stopped writing. He had already written it badly anyway, so this one was written in vain.
He moved his knees to relieve the pain and then reluctantly said:
"I didn't do anything... I didn't do anything. Mother just didn't like me and wanted to teach me a lesson!"
Boss Mi: "Mom has doted on you for so many years, why does she dislike you now?" Don't lie too outrageously.
Mi Lao Er knelt on his heels listlessly and said helplessly:
"Brother, is our family really being targeted? Mom said that our family is... having a hard time right now."
Boss Mi's eyes were deep, and he smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, they all want to take advantage of our family!"
Mi Lao Er lowered his head dejectedly and murmured: "Then what can I do? What should I do?"
Boss Mi reached out and patted his brother on the shoulder, comforting him:
"You don't have to do anything. Just don't cause trouble for the family and don't let them catch you and use you as evidence to threaten the family."
Mi Laoer nodded. He could probably guess why his mother trapped him in the ancestral hall.
Boss Mi: "Second brother, do you know our brother-in-law Kaiyang?"
