Chapter 1477 My Altay 24
When Mrs. Ba and Taxue approached, Xu Qin spoke to Mrs. Ba first, "Mrs. Ba, I have never thought about dating anyone, let alone getting married. I want to live a life without any constraints. Do you understand?"
Ba Taixian was a little disappointed. After all, he had been on high alert for a while, not wanting Xu Qin to say a direct rejection. But he didn't expect that today, after seeing Xu Qin dancing, he couldn't help but want to be alone with Xu Qin for a while, which gave Xu Qin the opportunity to reject him.
Then he felt very aggrieved, "What's wrong with me? You rejected me without even trying!"
Xu Qin said seriously: "I don't need to try anything."
"In marriage, the most common situation is that the man is the breadwinner and the woman is the homemaker. However, it's not just men, but the whole society that ignores the value of women being homemakers. Just like Murati doesn't think that Token's daily laundry, cooking, housework, and childcare are serious tasks, the whole society demands that women must be responsible for maintaining the entire family and have their own careers."
"Just like Uncle Sulitan insisted that your family wouldn't be any different without Token."
"I've observed that even though you've had experience living on your own, you still don't take Token's efforts seriously when you return home. Even though you know that dirty clothes never get clean by themselves, the yurt never gets tidy by itself, and the stove never lights a fire to cook by itself, you still ignore Token's efforts."
"Since I have to do everything even if I live alone, why should I just take care of myself? Why should I drag someone over to distract myself and consume more energy?"
Ba Tai admitted that he had overlooked his sister-in-law Token's great contribution to the entire family, but in some ways he could not agree with Xu Qin's one-size-fits-all approach. He asked aggrievedly: "What about love? Sweet, beautiful love, don't you want it at all?"
It is not a full moon tonight, but the silvery moonlight still illuminates the woods, grasslands and snow-capped mountains as if it were daytime. The ripples on the stream sparkle like broken silver. It is all so beautiful.
Xu Qin looked at Ba Tai solemnly and said, "Love is of course beautiful, but the idea of marriage behind love really doesn't interest me. How many couples do you think will get married in the fall at today's dance?"
Ba Tai finally understood what Xu Qin meant. She didn't reject love, but she couldn't accept marriage. He said happily: "Xu Qin, we just want love, okay?!"
Xu Qin was speechless. Mrs. Ba was relatively innocent. She took a deep breath and said, "I don't want love, let alone marriage. I've made it clear to you today. Don't do anything that could cause misunderstanding in the future."
Can Ba Tai still listen to Xu Qin?
"no!"
"Xu Qin, just give it a try. All it takes is love!"
Ba Tai pulled Xu Qin's hand and acted coquettishly. Ta Xue took a look and stretched his neck to rub Xu Qin's other shoulder. This man and horse really looked like a dog!
Xu Qin tacitly agreed to be in love with Ba Tai, which made Ba Tai very excited. He immediately started talking about himself and Kulan: "Uncle Yao thought that Kulan and I liked each other, and just now he even asked me when I was going to marry Kulan."
Xu Qin would not pay attention to such childish tactics of Ba Tai, and casually suggested: "Then let's hold it in the fall. I heard from Token that if someone falls in love at the dance now, we can hold another dance in the fall. Then someone else will fall in love at the dance, and there will be another dance in the summer."
Ba was so aggrieved that he pulled Xu Qin's hand and put it on his chest, "How could you do this? What will you do if Uncle Yao helps Kulan take me away? You won't have a boyfriend anymore!"
They had just confirmed their relationship, and Ba Tai was so sincere. Xu Qin was not as childish as Ba Tai, so she coaxed him in a gentle voice: "I believe in your character. Since you can be honest with me about this, it means that you don't like Kulan, and Kulan probably doesn't like you either."
Ba was so proud that he looked even taller than Taxue who was lowering his head. "Xu Qin, you are so smart. I only like you. Kulan likes Mohebiti, not me."
Ba Taike was so happy that he walked with Taxue and sang songs around Xu Qin. The song was melodious, like the sweet words whispered between lovers, or like the sound of nature, which made people indulge in it unconsciously.
The lyrics are even more straightforward, saying how beautiful the girl is and how happy he is that she finally agreed to be his lover.
Li Wenxiu, who was hiding in the woods and watching quietly, couldn't help but be amazed at Ba Tai: "Xu Qin told me early in the morning that she would not fall in love with Ba Tai. I didn't expect that Ba Tai would be able to convince her like this!"
Token was also a little disappointed with Xu Qin: "Mrs. Ba, my brother-in-law is just good-looking, nothing else!"
Li Wenxiu didn't want to get involved in anyone's relationship problems, so she changed the subject: "What do the lyrics mean? Token, can you hear it clearly?"
Token said casually, "Xu Qin is so beautiful, more beautiful than the moon and the snowy mountains, and she is willing to let Ba Tai be her boyfriend. Ba Tai is so happy."
"No, we need to let Mrs. Ba do all the housework before Xu Qin will agree to let him be her boyfriend!"
Li Wenxiu agreed with both hands: "Yes, yes, yes! Xu Qin's hands are worth a thousand gold. I have read her books. The copyright alone is worth a lot of money. We can't let Mrs. Ba bury them!"
Li Wenxiu's own published works are all prose, but Xu Qin has published short stories and novels. She did not use money to measure the difference between Xu Qin and Ba Tai, but simply felt that Xu Qin, a literary goddess, wasted God's arrangement by staying at home to wash clothes and cook.
Token had the same idea. Washing clothes and cooking really take up a lot of time, even on the ranch. What's more, life on the ranch is much more than just washing clothes and cooking. As Sulitan gets older, the herding work will fall on Ba Tai. If Xu Qin marries Ba Tai, she will almost certainly have to herd with Ba Tai in the future, so she will definitely have much less time to write.
Thinking of this, Token started to dislike Ba Tai. "No, no, I have to tell Xu Qin that life on the ranch is too hard. It's okay for her to come here for fun, but she really can't stand it if she stays."
After dancing a few rounds, everyone gathered together to eat and drink. Xu Qin sat with the women and talked and laughed. Over there, Kulan's boyfriend, Mohebiti, took advantage of his drunkenness and pulled Batai over to fight.
