Chapter 26 Forced Marriage
Chapter 26 Forced Marriage
At this time Jiang Yi suddenly called out: "Child?"
Yu Xi was so frightened that his hands shook, and the English book on the railing almost didn't fall down the stairs.
Jiang Yi asked: "Are you outside?"
Yu Xi held on to the English book on the railing, but couldn't hold her own heartbeat: "It's me."
"I just saw that there seemed to be a figure outside." Jiang Yi's voice was lazy, and the steam in the bathroom added a layer of ambiguity and tenderness: "What are you doing?"
Under the moonlight, everyone fell asleep, everything was silent, Yu Xi could only hear her own beating heartbeat, and the faint sound of water coming from the bathroom.She whispered: "Nothing, just keep you."
Jiang Yi laughed: "What do I have to guard?"
Yu Xi was silent for a while: "I'll help you back to your room after you finish washing."
At this moment Jiang Yi found her outside, and when she came back to her senses, she didn't dare to look at Jiang Yi's back at all.It's just that she was facing the corridor and looking at the bright moonlight. In front of her eyes were black trees, dark roads, and sun-facing flower fields. She couldn't see everything clearly, but the sound of rushing water could be heard more clearly in her ears.
The clear water poured on Jiang Yi's back, tick, tick.In Yu Xi's mind, he kept thinking of the back that he just saw, his skin was whiter than snow, there was no trace of fat in the place that should be thin, and the place that should be plump was just right.
She looked down at her hands, her fingers trembling slightly.
Jiang Yi asked again: "What are you doing outside?"
Yu Xi: "...nothing."
Reading such lies in English books made her so distracted that she was too embarrassed to say them.
Jiang Yi chuckled lightly, and there was also steam in that laughter: "Sing a song."
Yu Xi said softly: "You did it on purpose."
Mingming Jiang Yi knew that she was tone deaf from the happy birthday song she sang just now.
Jiang Yi laughed again without forcing herself, and hummed the charming little tune: "The road of lovesickness is long and long, and the sweet moonlight makes people flustered..."
Yu Xi stood with her hands behind her back, looking at the bright moonlight shining in from the corridor, behind her was Jiang Yi's wet singing, her wet back, and the wet water vapor smelling of low-quality roses.
Yu Xi felt a hot current gushing out of nowhere, running wildly in her body.
******
After Jiang Yi finished taking a shower, Yu Xi helped her back to her room.
Jiang Yi didn't wipe her body very dry, she was wearing a white T-shirt like Yu Xi's, which stuck to her body half wet.Yu Xi supported her, and the skin of the two of them stuck together, and the rose-scented water vapor rubbed against Yu Xi's skin.
Soggy.Sticky.
It was the same as the heat running through her body.
After returning to the room, Yu Xi was even more embarrassed.Because Jiang Yi's room was only a narrow camp bed, not even a broken sofa, and she couldn't even say polite words like "You sleep on the bed, I sleep on the sofa", although she didn't think so.
Jiang Yi was very natural: "I can only squeeze." He smiled and asked: "You don't sleep well, do you? You won't kick me off in the middle of the night, will you?"
Yu Xi squeezed out a sentence: "It's okay."
She helped Jiang Yi walk to the bed, helped Jiang Yi put his injured foot on the bed, and gently rubbed his fingers over Jiang Yi's ankle.
Jiang Yi draped a thin blanket: "Why are you standing there? Are you punished?"
Yu Xi curled her hands behind her back: "I want to read a book for a while."
Jiang Yi glanced at her: "You want to stand and watch? I don't have a chair here."
Yu Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she went to bed with her English book in her arms.
Jiang Yi threw half of the thin blanket and came to Yuxi.
This rental house is extremely simple, without lamps, only a chandelier covered with thick dust on the roof, the wattage is not high, and the light is dim.Jiang Yi yawned, turned around and lay on her side, with her back to Yu Xi.
"Why are you kids so energetic? You can still read." Her voice soon became sleepy.
Yu Xi asked: "Will the lights be so bright that you can't sleep?"
"No, my sister is exhausted in the billiard hall every day, so I can sleep in seconds." Jiang Yi said lazily, "Don't look too late, you should pay attention to relaxation starting four days before the college entrance examination."
Yu Xi said "hmm".
Jiang Yi said sleepily: "Good night, kid." When he said the last word, his voice dropped.
It seems that I fell asleep in seconds.
There was no Jiang Yi's voice in the room, and there was silence. Yu Xi felt that his voice of flipping the pages of the book was too loud, and his movements were infinitely slowed down, and his eyes fell on Jiang Yi who was beside him inadvertently.
Jiang Yi seemed to be in a deep sleep.
The T-shirt that was used as pajamas had wide and wide sleeves, half of Jiang Yi's arms were exposed like tender lotus root, and the thick black hair was scattered, covering half of the exquisite and beautiful side face.
Yu Xi lost his mind for a while, got up lightly, put away the English book, turned off the light, and went back to bed.
The bed was so narrow, she and Jiang Yi had their backs to each other, and their spines had to stick together.
Under the thin T-shirt, Jiang Yi's skin was burning hot.
Yu Xi listened to Jiang Yi's gentle breathing, and subconsciously relaxed her own breathing.
She opened her eyes, but the room had just turned pitch black, and her eyes hadn't adapted yet, so she couldn't see anything.The eyes are out of order, and other senses are more acute. Jiang Yi's gentle breathing, the smell of roses wafting from her body, and the burning temperature on her skin, are like a net, trapping Yu Xi impenetrably.
Yu Xi rubbed against Jiang Yi again, but Jiang Yi didn't wake up.
There was only one blanket on Jiang Yi's bed, half of it was covering Jiang Yi's body, and the other half was covering Yu Xi's body.Yu Xi gently moved her feet, trying to find Jiang Yi's legs in the blanket.
Jiang Yi gave the two of them a T-shirt as pajamas, pajama pants were not available, and their legs were bare, rubbing against the rough sheets.
Yu Xi thought, when Jiang Yi asked her about her sleeping posture just now, she said it was okay, not "very good", then if Jiang Yi found her rubbing against Jiang Yi's leg, she could push her to her sleeping posture go up.
She continued to stretch her feet towards Jiang Yi, while listening to Jiang Yi's breathing, carefully.
She originally wanted to rub against Jiang Yi's leg, but the moment her sole touched Jiang Yi's leg, she shrank suddenly.
How could it be so smooth.
She listened carefully to Jiang Yi's breathing, it was still steady, Jiang Yi still didn't wake up.
She boldly stretched her foot over again, and slowly closed her eyes in the darkness.
******
In the darkness, Jiang Yi slowly opened his eyes.
Sometimes when facing Ye Xingzhou, she felt that her acting skills were frighteningly poor.Sometimes facing Yu Xi, she felt that her acting skills were quite good.
She yawned lazily to say she was sleepy, and then pretended to fall asleep soon.It seemed that the child believed it, and the movements of turning the pages of the book became light and slow. After reading for a while, he turned off the light and went to bed, lying obediently beside her.
But she soon discovered that "honesty" was her misunderstanding, because the child's feet stretched out and stuck to her calves.
Is it bad sleeping, or on purpose?Jiang Yi prefers the latter.
She is an adult woman, and she is not stupid, of course she knows that Yu Xi has some special feelings for her.But to say that she likes it, it should not be said, Yu Xi is only thinking about Beihang, going to the world outside the mountain, nothing here can keep her.
It was more of a sexual awakening, and Jiang Yi himself had this feeling before.
After thinking about it this way, Jiang Yi decided to continue pretending to be asleep, otherwise the situation would be even more embarrassing.
After the child found out that she was not awake, he seemed a little more courageous.
The soles of his feet pressed against her calf, rubbing back and forth gently.The toes tapped her calf twice, and then tapped two more, it was crispy and numb.
The feet are not as flexible as the hands, and when they scrape against the calf, there is a clumsy, ambiguous tenderness on the contrary.
The electric fan in her rented house was broken, and it was still hot at night. The skin of the two of them pressed together, and soon a thin layer of sweat appeared, as if they were glued together, wet and sticky. .
The itchy feeling of rubbing the skin made every pore of Jiang Yi's body open.
She thought her skin was hot enough, but the child was young, and the skin was hotter, burning her calf, and burning somewhere deeper in her body.
She was tense all over, trying to control the trembling of her calves, and her breathing that gradually became faster, and slowly closed her eyes in the darkness.
******
When Yu Xi woke up the next day, Jiang Yi was still sleeping lazily, as if she hated the light from the window, she pulled the blanket over her head.
Yu Xi looked a little funny.
She didn't know how this woman could sleep so well, she obviously went to bed earlier than her last night, didn't she?
As soon as Jiang Yi pulled the blanket, half of the T-shirt was lifted, revealing the black lace underwear, and a small piece of smooth and soft waist. The shallow waist is especially attractive.
It's a completely different situation from Yu Xi's own cotton underwear.
Under the blazing sun, Yu Xi was not as courageous as under the cold moonlight, she closed the door softly and left in a hurry.
Fortunately, the backpack was put at Jiang Yi's house yesterday, so I can go to school directly.
She is usually used to arriving early, so she doesn't meet anyone on the way to school.Coming out of Jiang Yi's house today, a little later than usual, I ran into Zhou Qi who was also walking with a backpack.
Zhou Qi took the initiative to say hello to Yu Xi: "Did you stay up late last night to study?"
Yu Xi didn't understand: "Huh?"
Zhou Qi smiled: "Look at the dark circles on your face."
Yu Xi pinched the strap of her backpack in silence.
This is not the dark circles caused by studying.
Zhou Qi was used to Yu Xi's few words, so he took the initiative to smile and said: "The college entrance examination is coming up in a few days, are you ready?"
Yu Xi said, "I'm fine."
Speaking of arrogance, after learning this, she feels that as long as there are no accidents in the college entrance examination, she should have no problem passing the Beihang test.Every exercise that she can do instinctively, every knowledge point that needs to be memorized, can no longer stop her.
So she didn't study last night, and she didn't feel guilty about panicking.On the contrary, now that she is holding the book and continuing to read, it is more of a kind of inertia.
She was like a beast ready to go, her whole body tensed up, waiting for the coming of the college entrance examination.
******
However, all of Yuxi's plans are based on "no accidents".
When she was doing exercises between classes that day, she felt that the sun was very big, as big as the day she first met Jiang Yi, that is, the day her uncle and aunt came to make trouble at school.
For some reason, Yu Xi was absent-mindedly doing exercises between classes, looking at the sun like this, he already had a bad premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, after the class exercises, the head teacher found her in the crowd: "Yu Xi, your parents are looking for you."
******
To be honest, in Yuxi's heart, it is difficult to connect uncle and aunt with the word "parent".
In her heart, Jiang Yi is more like a parent than they are.
Parents should be mature people, soft people, people who will accompany them, and people who can shelter from wind and rain.Instead of being like uncles and aunts, one is cowardly and the other is bitter, watching the head teacher bring Yu Xi over, looking at her with a smirk.
"Our girl has really grown up." My aunt looked at her happily, and didn't ask her anything about not going home to sleep last night.
Yu Xi suspected that her aunt didn't realize that she didn't go home to sleep last night.
She asked coldly, "What's the matter?"
My aunt rubbed her hands, her face became more festive: "Aren't you eighteen? Your uncle and I are here to pack your things for you. Come on, let's drop out of school and live a good life!"
Yu Xi took a step back and looked at the head teacher.
The homeroom teacher stood there with an embarrassed smile, scratching his head: "You guys talk about family matters, discuss it carefully before making a decision."
He turned away.
Yuxi sighed behind him.
The homeroom teacher actually heard Yu Xi sigh.He was actually a little shocked in his heart, he didn't understand how a child who just gave birth yesterday could make such a sigh.What he didn't know was that a child who was really helpless since childhood would mature too precociously like this.
With a face brimming with youth, his heart is so old that it is calloused.
In fact, Yu Xi doesn't blame the head teacher either.
In a place as poor as Zhuzhen, a vicious cycle has formed between "poor" and "no future". Parents don't pay much attention to their children's grades, and the most they can do is beat them up when they fail in the exams and feel ashamed.It is not uncommon for girls to drop out of school and get married. Even if they are not of the legal age for marriage, they should make an appointment first, and wait two years before renewing the marriage certificate.
Even if Yu Xi is the head teacher's most proud student, he can't do anything about such housework.
Yu Xi stood there with a cold face, and her aunt came up to tease her: "You have to laugh more, your dead face is not pleasing to your in-laws, let me tell you."
Yu Xi was staggered a step by his aunt, and his uncle muttered beside him in a low voice: "Don't pull her."
Yu Xi looked at his uncle.
Under Yu Xi's last look of anticipation, his uncle opened his mouth silently like a dying fish, but finally died down under a burst of scolding from his aunt: "Are you sick? Will she leave if I don't pull her? She If you don't marry the Wang family, how will you get the money to build a new house? Useless things..."
Aunt should be sure that Yu Xi has no room for resistance, and she is not ambiguous at all when she speaks these truths in front of Yu Xi.
Yu Xi knew that her uncle could not be her only hope at the last moment, so the light in her eyes went out.
She was dragged by her aunt to the classroom.
******
The rest time after the exercises between classes is longer, and there is no class at the moment, and the classroom is noisy.The aunt dragged her into the classroom: "Where are you sitting?"
Yuxi didn't speak.
The aunt snorted, and pulled a classmate casually: "Where is Yu Xi sitting?"
The classmate glanced at the woman with an unkind face, and then at Yu Xi who was standing next to him with a cold face. He didn't understand what was going on for a while, so he didn't say anything.
"Yu Xi sit there, the fifth row." A charming voice pinching her throat sounded.
As soon as Yu Xi heard this pretentiously charming voice, she felt pain in her temples.When she looked up, she saw Qin Xiaohan sitting there holding her hair, surrounded by her followers and girlfriends.
She looked at Yu Xi and smiled: "Yu Xi, congratulations, when will you invite us to have wedding candy?"
Others in the class don't know about Yu Xi's marriage, but Qin Xiaohan knows it very well. After all, her brother is also a gangster, and he knows the Wang family well.
Seeing that Yu Xi didn't speak, she smiled even more proudly: "Why, marrying into such a good family as the Wang family, why do you just ignore us classmates?"
Her two companions cooperated with her, laughing wildly.
He was laughing and joking, stinging Yu Xi's eardrum.
The other students have already caught the point of Qin Xiaohan's words: "What? Yuxi is going to marry into the Wang family?"
"Hasn't the son of the Wang family been in prison? Is Yu Xi crazy..."
"For the Wang family's money? Doesn't that mean you sold yourself?"
Yu Xi sneered in her heart: Didn't my aunt just sell her?
My aunt didn't care about the comments of other students. She had a clear purpose and went straight to Yuxi's desk, and even brought a sack, and swept all the books and papers on and off Yuxi's desk into the sack, muttering while sweeping: " Why are there so many books? What a waste of money, if you have this money, you might as well give it to me..."
Yu Xi looked at her coldly.
The uncle took a cautious look at Yu Xi, then teased the aunt and said in a low voice, "Why isn't she making trouble?"
He knew very well what the college entrance examination meant to Yu Xi, and letting Yu Xi drop out of school before the college entrance examination was like killing her.
Yu Xi is his sister's daughter, and his sister, he thinks, is crazy.
He was already mentally prepared. When he came to pick up Yuxi to drop out of school today, Yuxi would make a big fuss, maybe even flipped the desk over.
Unexpectedly, Yu Xi stood beside him motionless, with a cold face, looking no different from usual.
My aunt snorted as she continued to collect things: "What's the trouble with her? Marrying into the Wang's family is delicious and hot, and there are still people in the Wang's family in the city. I don't know if I will take her to the city in the future. I will find it for her." Such a good marriage, it's too late for her to thank me, so she's making trouble?"
Uncle obviously didn't think so, and looked at Yu Xi again with a guilty conscience.
But Yuxi really didn't make a fuss, and after her aunt finished collecting her things, she left with her uncle and aunt.
Qin Xiaohan looked at Yu Xi's empty desk, and smiled arrogantly.
******
Cao Xuan returned home early after school today.
His mother told him that people from the Wang family will come to dinner tonight to discuss the date of the wedding, and bring the tailor along the way to measure the size of the bridal gown for Yu Xi.
Cao Xuan knew that Yu Xi was taken home by his mother in the morning, and he was fidgeting in the classroom at that time, but thinking of his mother's behavior, he really didn't have the courage to stop him.
Now when he came home, he saw his mother cooking in the kitchen but didn't see Yu Xi, so he asked, "Where's Sister Xi?"
His mother didn't even raise her head: "The one who was washing vegetables here just now, who knows where he went now."
Cao Xuan was a little surprised: Sister Xi will obediently help wash the vegetables here?
Originally, he thought the same as his father, thinking that if his mother took Yu Xi out of school today, there would definitely be a big fuss.
He searched around, and finally found her in Yu Xi's cubicle. He was polite to Yu Xi and never entered her room without Yu Xi's permission. He stood at the door and shouted: "Sister Xi."
Yu Xi was brushing up questions when she heard the shout and looked up at him.
The small cubicle was made of wooden boards, so it was very stuffy, and his mother didn't have a distribution fan. Yu Xi sat here in an old T-shirt and jeans, doing quizzes, and soon became hot and sweaty.
The old T-shirt and jeans on Yu Xi's body are all his. He is about the same height as Yu Xi, even a little shorter than Yu Xi, but much fatter than Yu Xi, and his clothes are loose when worn on Yu Xi .
In addition, Yu Xi was sweating on his forehead, and his hair was sticking to his forehead in a mess. When he raised his eyes and saw those black and white eyes, Cao Xuan was still shocked in his heart.
Even if he is not interested in girls, he must admit that his sister is really pretty.
Yu Xi asked him: "What's the matter?"
Her voice was as usual, as calm and cold as her eyes.
Cao Xuan poked his head and took a look in: "Sister Xi, why are you... still writing questions."
Didn't they all drop out of school?
Yu Xi said lightly: "It's boring to be idle."
Cao Xuan's heart twitched.
Dropping out of school should be such a blow to his sister, she couldn't even take the college entrance examination and was still doing her exams here.
At this time his mother called him outside: "Ah Xuan, where are you? Come and taste this meat."
Cao Xuan buried his fat face: "Sister Xi, I'm sorry."
Neither he nor his father knew how to resist his mother.
Yu Xi smiled: "It's not your fault."
Cao Xuan looked up and saw that although Yu Xi was smiling, there was a cold light in his eyes: "I don't blame anyone and I don't rely on anyone."
"I'm on my own."
******
When it was almost time for dinner, people from the Wang family came.
It was Sister Wang who came last time, with two sisters-in-law and a tailor. Her son still didn't come, as if she didn't care about the marriage at all.
The aunt pulled Yu Xi out, smiling all over her face: "This kid came back from school early this morning, and is waiting for you at home."
Sister Wang asked, "Have you dropped out of school?"
Although the formalities had not yet been completed, my aunt hurriedly answered: "Refunded."
My aunt had asked Yu Xi to dress up before coming out to meet guests, but Yu Xi had been doing the quizzes in her cubicle without even washing her face, and now her broken hair was still sticking to her forehead with sweat, messy.
Even so, Sister Wang looked Yu Xi up and down and didn't find anything wrong with her eyes.
This girl looks really handsome.
Yu Xi always felt that every time Sister Wang looked at her eyes, it was like looking at an animal.But she was not afraid, and met Sister Wang's gaze with a cold face.
Sister Wang said: "You have to change your eyes when you marry into my family. My son likes gentle ones."
"This child has been used to it since childhood." The uncle smoothed things over: "Sister Wang, let's eat first."
Aunt pushes an inch: "Yu Xi, you get some food for your future mother-in-law."
Yu Xi glanced over with her clear eyes: "Why don't I toast my future mother-in-law."
******
In the evening, billiard hall.
Jiang Yi rubbed the club head with shell powder while looking in the direction of the entrance of the billiard hall.
It's not yet sunset, but the sun is still a little lighter than the daytime, and it's not so glaring.The door was backlit, and the deep orange sunlight was shining down. If a tall, thin and beautiful girl walked in there, it would be as beautiful as a painting.
Jiang Yi was bitten by a snake yesterday, her ankles were wrapped in thick gauze, and she couldn't use her strength. When she was leaning against the table, she was not as chic and charming as usual.When playing, you have to hop around on one foot.
She laughs that she is physically disabled and strong, stretching out her white hands in charge of customers asking for more tips, charming and pitiful, even the charm is hidden in her eyes, and no customer refuses to agree.
The other little sisters said enviously: "Sister Yi is really the butterfly of our billiard hall."
"When will we be better than Sister Yi?"
Jiang Yi looked in the direction of the door, and instead of waiting for a girl Qingli, a man came instead.
The little sister reacted faster than Jiang Yi, and greeted enthusiastically: "Brother Wang, why are you back in town?"
"Hi, my mother called me back to discuss the marriage." Brother Wang said, "I'm too lazy to go there, let them discuss it."
Jiang Yi's eyes narrowed: "Has your mother gone to Yu's house?"
Brother Wang nodded, and whistled at her coquettishly: "Sister Yi, play two rounds with me."
The voice fell, and Jiang Yi was already seen jumping out of the billiard hall with one foot.
