Mu Jingzhe and Ji Buw.a.n.g were getting along fine. Then, Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng started urging them to get married. They said that they had to hold a wedding before the New Year before Mu Jingzhe got older by another year.

Mom, whats the hurry? Weve already discussed it. Well get married sooner or later.

How can I not be anxious? Youre still alright for your age, but look at Ji Buw.a.n.g. Hes going to be 32 years old after the New Year. Hes in his thirties and he still hasnt gotten married. If I were his family, Id be so anxious that my beard would fall off.

It was normal to get married at 32 years old in the modern era, when this age wasnt considered old at all. But in this era, it was indeed a little old.

Hence, when she saw Ji Buw.a.n.g, she couldnt help but ask him about it curiously. Ji Buw.a.n.g didnt hide anything. The Old Master is indeed impatient. Whats wrong? Is Auntie urging you again?

Do you want to get married then? Mu Jingzhe asked.

Of course I do. Ji Buw.a.n.g said that he even dreamed of it.

Then lets get married, Mu Jingzhe said bluntly. In case they keep getting anxious.

Ji Buw.a.n.g was a little stunned. What? Jingzhe, you

It was such an important matter, and he was still thinking about how to propose. Why had Jingzhe said it out loud? Was he hallucinating? Jingzhe was willing to marry him?

You dont agree? Or do you need a small ceremony? After looking around, Mu Jingzhe plucked a small flower from the roadside and gave it to Ji Buw.a.n.g. So, Mr. Ji Buw.a.n.g, will you marry me?

Ji Buw.a.n.g looked at the flower. Jingzhe, the man is the one whos supposed to propose

Men and women are equal. So what if I propose? Youre very good-looking, so I wont lose out. Just tell me if youre willing to marry me or not. If youre willing, just nod. Mu Jingzhe looked at Ji Buw.a.n.g and insisted.

Of course Im willing. Im extremely, extremely willing, Ji Buw.a.n.g replied in a heartbeat.

Thats good. I figured youd be willing. Mu Jingzhe smiled. She took Ji Buw.a.n.gs hand and kissed the back of it. Then its settled.

Ji Buw.a.n.g looked at Mu Jingzhe, and his heart skipped a beat. Then, he turned his hand around and kissed the back of Mu Jingzhes hand. Hand in hand

Well grow old together. Mu Jingzhe completed his sentence.

She then added, Dont worry, Ill make up for the lack of a ring. Or lets split up the work. You buy the wedding ring and Ill buy the proposal ring. Just treat them as a couple of rings, alright?

When Ji Buw.a.n.g heard this, he hesitated for a moment as if feeling a hint of helplessness. However, he still nodded. Alright.

Mu Jingzhe thought that he was hesitant about her buying the ring. Then its settled.

Since they had agreed to get married, even though they had already met each others parents, they had to meet the parents again. At the very least, they had to get Old Master Ji to acknowledge her and have him hand Ji Buw.a.n.g over to her without any worries. Also, Ji Buw.a.n.g had to let Mu Jingzhes parents hand her over to him without any worries.

Mu Jingzhe didnt get delayed by work and quickly told Li Zhaodi about this. Li Zhaodi was also in a hurry. She didnt think that a woman should wait for the man to come. She felt that Ji Buw.a.n.g was following Jingzhe around every day now, so they should indeed hold the wedding as soon as possible. She quickly contacted Old Master Ji.

Old Master Ji was delighted to hear that Mu Jingzhe and Ji Buw.a.n.g were really planning to get married. He excitedly talked to Li Zhaodi about meeting her parents, where they would hold the wedding, the date, and so on.

After he calmed down from all the excitement, he suddenly realized something. Why had the female party informed them?

He kept feeling that Ji Buw.a.n.g wasnt marrying a wife but was marrying into her family instead.

Old Master Ji shook his head and pushed away his strange thoughts. How could that be? He was thinking too much.

They hadnt met her parents yet, but they had checked the dates in advance. The wedding would take place on a day after the New Year that was auspicious for both of them. This contradicted Li Zhaodis expectations that they would get married before the New Year.

But it was a good thing nonetheless. After all, two to three months would pa.s.s soon. During this period, she would have time to prepare the dowry.

In the past, she hadnt been able to decide on Jingzhes dowry, so Jingzhe had basically married without a dowry. At the time, she had been filled with guilt. Now that she thought about it, she still felt terrible. Since she was getting married for the second time, she had to prepare well and make up for what she hadnt been able to do in the past.

When the five children heard that Li Zhaodi wanted to prepare a dowry and help with the wedding, they were stunned for a moment. Theyre getting married already?

After receiving an affirmative answer, they all had the same thought: They had to prepare a dowry for their mommy. This was something they had thought of in the past.

The entire family seemed to get very busy instantly, while Mu Jingzhe became the idlest person among them.

Li Zhaodi even asked for Ji Buw.a.n.gs birth characters and said that she wanted to have their birth characters looked at. She also dragged Mu Jingzhe along, saying that this fortune-teller was very accurate and asking her to take a look at Mu Jingzhe.

Mu Jingzhe didnt quite believe in these things, not to mention that she was a transmigrator. However, since Li Zhaodi believed in it, she could only follow her.

After the fortune-teller looked at Mu Jingzhe, she said mysteriously, Your fate is quite strange. Its sweet at first and bitter later. There will be plenty of good days in your future. Your children are filial and youll die of old age.

Mu Jingzhe smiled when she heard that. Thank you for your blessing.

The five kids were naturally filial. There was nothing to say about this.

But Mu Jingzhe felt a little helpless when she heard the fortune-tellers words. She wished there were no buts, but there really were.

But what?

There are three tribulations in your life. You have survived two of them, and theres still one more to go. You have to survive this last one.

Mu Jingzhes face froze. Are you trying to say that theres a way to resolve this? So long as

She had seen this kind of money-scamming trick too many times. Just as Mu Jingzhe was about to rub her fingers and make the pay me gesture, she heard the fortune-teller say, I cant do anything. This is your predestined fate. It is a tribulation that cannot be escaped. How can I resolve it?

Mu Jingzhe choked. Why wasnt she playing her cards logically?

Li Zhaodi smacked Mu Jingzhe and pushed her aside. Get out of the way. Please dont be calculative with this child. Shes just asking for a beating. Here, I helped you hit her. Dont be angry. Just help me tell her how to resolve this. As long as it can be resolved, I can give you money.

As Li Zhaodi spoke, she really smacked Mu Jingzhe twice.

Mu Jingzhe:

The fortune-teller shook her head. Theres no way to resolve it. No amount of money can resolve it.

Li Zhaodi begged for a while, but it was useless. Later on, she thought that Mu Jingzhes previous tribulation should have been that illness shed had and felt that she might be able to brave through it. She could only give up for the time being and ask the fortune-teller to take a look at her marriage.

The fortune-teller looked at Mu Jingzhe with an indescribably strange gaze. Her marriage will last three lifetimes, and shes met a wonderful person. After overcoming the tribulation, she will have a good marriage and grow old with her husband.

Thats good, thats good. Li Zhaodi heaved a sigh of relief.

But she has to overcome the tribulation first, the fortune-teller emphasized.

Mu Jingzhe tilted her head. Ji Buw.a.n.g and I dont seem to have experienced many tribulations

Li Zhaodi slapped Mu Jingzhes shoulder and interrupted her. Then how many more tribulations do you want to experience? Havent you had enough in the past? Look at how many years youve been delayed. In the future, you two will grow old together.. Dont think too much about it.
