Chapter 711: Chapter 0711: The Old Man Forces Marriage

Long Fei and Lin Yingying descended from the mountain, and their home was already bustling with lights and decorations, with firecrackers popping and crackling.

Long Fei had exerted himself too much last night and dragged himself down the road with a drooping head, as if he had just been in a fight.

Lin Yingying, on the other hand, was radiant, having consumed a good amount of Essential Qi from Long Fei, which temporarily advanced her Cultivation Level quite a bit.

A Phoenix Dharma Laksana, which she would normally only manage to evoke at critical times, resonated with her this very morning after just one night.

As the Essential Qi transformed, a Phoenix Dharma Laksana burst forth directly from the water, letting out a piercing cry as it soared into the sky, causing the water below to splash up with a "plop," as if rain was pouring down on them.

Without realizing it, she had become a Physique Refining Warrior.

As soon as the two appeared, Li Heiwa, who understood politics, was the first to spot them, excitedly shouting, "Hey, it’s really Brother Long and Sister-in-Law who have come back!"

The group of people busy in the courtyard setting up for cooking turned their heads upon seeing Long Fei and joyfully shouted, "It’s this kid!"

"He hasn’t forgotten about us!"

"Quickly, go ask if the Chinese rose can be saved!"

A crowd of people surrounded them, and their diverse chatter suddenly exploded like a boiling pot, all concerning the Chinese rose.

Long Fei looked at them and smiled; no matter how prestigious he had become, in front of these people who had seen him grow up, he would always be.

That little brat who used to scream for milk, and they wouldn’t give him any courtesy in conversation.

This was the warmth of hometown relations, his roots.

He waited for everyone to quiet down and introduced with a smile, "About the Chinese roses, don’t worry. I found the root of the problem last night and have completely solved it."

"Really?"

"It was that easy?"

"No way, even the agricultural experts couldn’t handle it?"

"I told you! Brother Long is impressive, you just didn’t believe it. Didn’t he easily solve it?"

Li Heiwa shouted the loudest.

The other villagers excitedly yelled, "Let’s go up and look!"

"Come on, let’s all go!"

Unable to hold back, the group put down what they were doing and immediately headed to the fields, leaving only Li Heiwa behind to accompany Long Fei.

Long Santai sat in the courtyard, puffing on his smoking pipe, which Long Fei had left him the last time—a pack of milled Chinese herbal leaves.

This stuff not only did no harm when taken, but it also automatically absorbed smoke and regulated the internal organs.

Long Santai’s complexion was obviously much younger than before.

After Long Fei and Lin Yingying approached, each of them called out "Grandpa."

Long Santai looked at their long faces, not understanding what had upset them, and got up shaking his head before returning to the house and closing the door with a thud.

Long Fei and Lin Yingying looked at each other, then glanced at Li Heiwa.

Li Heiwa hurriedly shook his head and said, "Don’t look at me, I don’t know what happened either! I just came over to tell Grandpa you were back, and he was so happy."

Lin Yingying asked, "Did everyone make too much noise and disturb Grandpa?"

"I’ll go ask!"

Long Fei knocked on the door and called in, "Grandpa, what’s all this in the New Year?"

Long Santai angrily responded from inside, "Go away, back to the city with you. Seeing you just irritates me!"

Long Fei was perplexed, wondering what could have possibly upset the old man.

Could it be that Widow Li next door is ignoring him, making the old man lose love and become emotional recently?

He stood at the door and patiently asked, "Grandpa, if you’re unhappy with your grandson, just curse it out! Don’t keep it bottled up all the time; you’ll ruin your health. Don’t say I didn’t warn you, holding in anger is bad for the kidneys!"

"Is that so?"

Long Santai muttered from inside, then cursed out the door, "You little rascal, does your grandpa need to spell it out for you? The New Year is almost here, what are you busy with all day? When will you marry a granddaughter-in-law for me? When will you give me a great-grandson?"

Long Fei was amused and frustrated, realizing that this was the old man’s concern.

Li Heiwa pointed at Lin Yingying and told her through the door, "Sister-in-law, did you hear that? He’s talking about you guys!"

"I’m not deaf!"

Lin Yingying gave him a glare and curved her lips at Long Fei.

She was the victim in this situation!

The marriage arrangement had been made public for so long, yet Long Fei still dragged his feet in fulfilling it.

Lin Yingying knew that it was because of Wang Xiaoya; he didn’t want to hurt Wang Xiaoya.

She could understand, but that didn’t mean the old man would understand.

Long Fei deliberately delayed, trying to soothe the old man by saying, "Grandpa, calm down. Next year, I will definitely get married and give you a great-grandson, okay?"

"You alone don’t make the decision!"

Long Santai grumbled.

Long Fei quickly gestured to Lin Yingying, who helplessly became his accomplice, standing at the door and deceiving the old man, "Grandpa, I promise you too. Next year, we will definitely get married."

Long Santai opened the door, staring at Long Fei and Lin Yingying, he asked, "Are you two serious?"

"Of course!"

Long Fei and Lin Yingying nodded at the same time.

Long Santai turned to Li Heiwa and ordered, "Hei Wa, did you hear that?"

Li Heiwa excitedly called out, "Heard it, Brother Long and sister-in-law said they would get married and have a baby next year."

Long Santai knocked on his tobacco pipe and then took out an old yellowed calendar from inside the house. Pointing at the dates, he asked Long Fei and Lin Yingying, "The two of you are more educated than Grandpa, isn’t it the New Year in three days?"

"Ah?"

Long Fei and Lin Yingying frowned simultaneously, realizing the old man had caught them on a technicality.

Long Santai demanded with a stern face, "What ’ah’? I’m asking you. After New Year’s Eve, is it not next year?"

"Yes!"

Long Fei murmured to himself, so sly and cunning!

Lin Yingying secretly gloated over his predicament, thinking there was finally someone to deal with this guy. Thinking about treading on two boats, now let’s see how you manage!

The old man instructed firmly, "A man of the Long Family means what he says. You just agreed to me, to get married and have a baby right after the new year. The first day of the new year is a great date, festive and lively, with all the relatives, friends, and villagers around. Grandpa has saved quite a bit of money on the side, I’ll take it all out for your wedding. Yingying, inform your family now, make sure they are here that day. As soon as you two get married, Grandpa’s heart will be at ease. I believe, Long Fei’s deceased parents will also spend a restful new year below."

"Grandpa, it’s not as simple as you think!"

Long Fei still wanted to object.

Long Santai was resolute, "There’s nothing to discuss about this matter. If you still regard me as your grandpa, then do as I say. If you two don’t agree, just roll back to the city now. I can live peacefully without seeing you both!"

With the conversation reaching that point, Long Fei had nothing left to say.

With a gloomy expression, he agreed to Long Santai, "Okay, I’ll listen to you, all right?"

Lin Yingying, for some reason, felt a sudden twinge in her heart upon hearing Long Fei’s words, her eyes reddened, and she almost burst into tears.
