Chapter 390 Young Madam
After the exams, winter vacation began.
Mi Li got up early today because he was going to worship his ancestors with Jian Bai.
The Jian family is a large family with a long history. For important occasions like this one to worship their ancestors, every aspect must be perfect.
Mi Li found a black woolen long skirt, without any accessories, simple and neat.
She wore an extra-long down jacket that covered her ankles, and long boots with thick soles.
Although you should dress neatly and elegantly, you should not let yourself get cold.
The coldness of winter in the north is not just talk. If you don’t wear enough, you will really freeze to death.
Freezing your ears off is not just an exaggeration, your ears will really freeze off.
After packing up, Mi Li went downstairs.
Jian Bai was already waiting in the living room.
"Baibai, what do I need to prepare?"
Mi Li came to Jian Bai and looked up and said.
Jian Bai touched Mi Li's furry head and said:
"No need for anything, let's go."
Mi Li nodded and placed her hand in Jian Bai's large and warm palm.
Jian Bai naturally wrapped Mi Li's hand around her and put it in his pocket.
The two got into the car, which was picked up by someone sent by the Jane family.
"Master, Madam, get ready to go."
The driver got in the car and said respectfully while looking at the two people in the rearview mirror.
"Ah."
Jian Bai said calmly.
The driver then raised the partition, directly separating the front and rear seats.
Mi Li was not surprised when she heard the driver address her.
In the eyes of the Jian family, the only thing missing from Mi Li and Jian Bai's relationship is a marriage certificate.
They have completely treated Mi Li as their daughter-in-law.
Otherwise, for a big family like the Jian family, how could they possibly invite an outsider to participate in ancestor worship?
Mi Li was not surprised to be called Young Madam, and Jian Bai was secretly delighted.
The hand holding Mi Li felt a little heavier.
Mi Li looked at Jian Bai and said:
"Can you tell me about the process and precautions?"
The ancestor worship of a large family is definitely different from that of an ordinary family.
There must be many old rules left.
Now that he was there, Mi Li had to do his best.
Jian Bai knew Ali's personality, so even though she didn't need to do anything, Jian Bai still explained the precautions:
"There's nothing else to it, the main thing is that our family pays more attention to the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children.
My lineage is the legitimate one, and the others are illegitimate, so when I see other people besides my parents, I don't need to pay too much attention to them, and they won't have the courage to come and cause trouble."
Jian Bai pinched Mi Li's fingers and continued:
“When the collateral family members are offering sacrifices to their ancestors, they don’t need to come closer or say anything. They just need to kneel down and follow us in the ceremony.
I am the only direct descendant besides my father, so when the time comes, you will have to stand at the front with me and lead them in the salute.
The ceremony is not complicated. I can do the first part myself, and after that you just need to burn incense with me and kowtow a few times. "
Having said that, Jian Bai looked into Mi Li's eyes.
"If you don't want to kneel..."
Mi Li put her finger against Jian Bai's lips and said:
"Jian Bai, don't treat me as an outsider, I will be angry."
Jian Bai looked at the serious expression in Mi Li's eyes, and his nose suddenly felt sore.
Jian Bai held Mi Li's finger on his lips and said:
"Thank you, Ali."
Mi Li raised the corners of her lips, smiled and shook her head:
"Don't thank me, love is mutual."
Although Mi Li is selfish, she also knows that if she wants others to give unconditionally to her, she must also give something in return.
Others don't owe you anything, so why would they be so devoted to you for no reason?
Since Jian Bai treats her well, she will naturally give something back.
At this moment, Jian Bai's heart and eyes were filled with Mi Li.
"Like an idiot."
Mi Li gently tapped Jian Bai's forehead, then sat sideways on Jian Bai:
"I'm a little sleepy, wake me up before you get there."
As he said that, Mi Li fell asleep holding Jian Bai in his arms.
Jian Bai held Ali firmly with both hands, adjusted his sitting position, and relaxed his stiff muscles so that Ali could sleep more comfortably.
It was still pitch black outside. Mi Li had been taking exams and visiting ancestors' graves these past few days, and his emotions had been fluctuating greatly, so it was inevitable that he felt tired.
Jian Bai carried Mi Li in his arms, and after about an hour, they arrived at the place where Jian's family gathered.
"Ali, wake up, we're here."
Jian Bai called out to Mi Li softly.
Mi Li heard the sound and opened her eyes.
It was getting dimly brighter outside the car window.
"Ah."
Mi Li rubbed Jian Bai's neck, and after calming down, she immediately got off Jian Bai.
"Ahhhhh...Ah ...
Mi Li cleared her throat, patted her face, and tidied her hair.
"Can you tell I was asleep?"
Mi Li asked Jian Bai with a professional fake smile on his face.
Jian Bai smiled as he watched Mi Li's movements and said:
"Unrecognizable."
Hearing this, Mi Li felt relieved.
Jian Bai helped Mi Li tie her scarf and then put on her coat.
"Wrap yourself tightly, it's cold outside."
Mi Li looked outside and let Jian Bai help her put on her clothes.
Yesterday when Mi Li went to visit the grave, it only snowed lightly, but today it snowed heavily.
Snowflakes were flying outside, and it looked like there was wind.
The ground was also covered with white snow.
Snowy days are not scary, what is scary is windy days when it snows.
That's really cold.
Mi Li shrank her neck.
"It looks cold, but it doesn't matter. My clothes can help me resist physical attacks!"
Mi Li tightened her scarf and said:
"let's go."
Mi Li saw that there were already many black cars parked outside.
Jian Bai didn't even look outside, he held Mi Li's hand and said:
"It's okay, don't worry."
In fact, Jian Bai wanted to tell them to wait, it would not be a problem.
But I said this because I was afraid that Mi Li would feel pressured.
Those people depend on their families for support, and they usually turn a blind eye to many things. What will happen if they just wait for a while?
After a while, Wen Yajie came over.
She knocked on the car window.
The driver lowered the window and Wen Yajie said:
"It's a bit cold outside. Ali, please stay in the car for a while and come out after everyone is here."
Throughout the whole process, Wen Yajie looked at Mi Li with a gentle smile and didn't even glance at Jian Bai.
"Auntie, please get in the car quickly. Baibai, please open the door and let me get in."
Seeing the snowflakes falling on Wen Yajie's head, Mi Li quickly spoke.
Wen Yajie waved her hand and said:
"No, my car is right here, just wait in the car."
After Wen Yajie finished speaking to Mi Li, she finally looked at her adopted son:
"Get off the car later and take Ali with you. Don't let those ignorant people get close to you."
Jian Bai nodded:
"I know."
