save the bachelors

Chapter 5000 5003 [Marriage Line]

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiang Nan and Xiao Longnu bid farewell to Erniu and Uncle Wu and returned to the East China Sea.

"Brother Zhu, we really don't want you to leave. You must come to see us often." Erniu said to Xiang Nan.

"Yes, you can take these cakes with you and eat them on the road." Uncle Wu also handed Xiaolongnu a bag of cakes.

"Thank you, we're leaving now, and we'll come to see you." Xiang Nan and Xiao Longnu waved.

At the same time as they were on their way, Wu Gang, who intended to disrupt the sun-shooting incident, had been captured by Erlang Shen and the Four Heavenly Kings.

The mysterious Master Wu and his disciples all suffered as well.

Because they previously monopolized the well water in the city, took the opportunity to sell water at a high price, and also spread rumors to confuse the public, cheating and deceiving. Therefore, they are now denounced by the people of the whole county.

Now they have become rats crossing the street, everyone is calling for their death, and even if they don't die, they will be badly beaten. This is also their retribution.

Erniu and Uncle Wu's bakery now has "moon cakes" as its signature product, so their business will surely be good in the future. When they make money and marry a beautiful wife, Erniu's life will be settled.

Although he liked Chang'e in his heart, he was not obsessed with her. He was a loyal and honest person, so even if he married her, he would treat her well.

Unlike Zhu Bajie in the drama, after leaving Chang'e, he became worried and depressed, and suffered from lovesickness.

Erniu would just keep Chang'e in his heart and live a down-to-earth life with his wife. Perhaps in between making cakes, when he looked up at the moon, he would think of the stunning woman who had only a fleeting glimpse in his life.

……

After returning to Donghai, Xiang Nan put away the star harvester and then helped Donghai replenish his water.

"Oh, thank you so much, Mr. Zhu." The Dragon King said with a smile.

"You're welcome." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Xiao Long Nu is my friend. Isn't it my duty to do things for my friends?"

“Haha, that’s quite loyal.” The Dragon King laughed.

Xiang Nan also grinned.

At this moment, he suddenly felt something strange in his heart, as if he had an inexplicable feeling of disgust, rejection and indifference towards Xiaolongnu.

He was stunned and secretly took out the marriage mirror to see that the marriage thread between him and Xiaolongnu was actually tied in a knot.

As a result, they were originally in tune with each other and in love, but now they are only physically together but spiritually apart, like strangers.

Xiang Nan thought about it for a moment and realized that it was the Second Dragon Girl's doing.

It was she who ordered Yue Lao's disciples to deliberately do something bad and tie a knot in the marriage between Xiao Long Nu and Zhu Ba Jie, making them seem to be destined to be together, but in fact they were not.

The reason why she did this was simply because she was jealous that her younger sister was more favored than her.

But what she didn't know was that the reason why Xiao Long Nu was more favored was because the Dragon King and the Queen knew that she was the reincarnation of the fourth spring in the world. If the East China Sea encountered a disaster in the future and the spring was destroyed, Xiao Long Nu would have to be sacrificed.

So before that, they wanted to pamper Xiao Long Nu as much as possible, otherwise there would be no chance in the future.

Erlongnu didn't know any of this. She just thought that her parents were partial to her and her younger sister was cunning, so she acted smart and harmed others without benefiting herself.

……

Upon seeing this, Xiang Nan immediately went to the Heavenly Palace and found Yue Lao's Palace of Marriage.

Although Yue Lao is in charge of all marriages in the world, he actually has no magical powers and is just a minor deity.

His marriage palace was naturally not difficult to enter. After Xiang Nan entered, he saw nameplates of people hanging everywhere in the marriage palace. They represented every person and god in heaven and earth, even the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother were among them, dazzling and everywhere.

Many people's name tags have red strings connected to them, and some even have more than one red string. However, some people's name tags do not have red strings, presumably because fate has not arrived yet.

Xiang Nan then searched for his and Xiaolongnu's name tags among the layers of densely packed name tags, and quickly found them.

After finding the name tag, Xiang Nan followed the red line on the name tag and soon found the knot on the red line.

"He is so vicious that he actually harms his own sister like this." Xiang Nan shook his head and then cast a spell to untie the knot and restore the thread of marriage.

After the marriage line was restored, Xiang Nan's subconscious rejection, disgust and aversion towards Xiaolongnu disappeared instantly, and turned into feelings of liking, recognition and closeness again.

"Hmph, Erlongnu is so abominable, should we punish her?" Xiang Nan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but couldn't help wanting revenge.

He has never been a person who is willing to be bullied, and he believes in tit for tat. Since Er Longnu has disturbed the marriage between him and Xiao Longnu, he wants to ruin Er Longnu's marriage.

"Let me see who Erlongnu's marriage thread has been tied to." Xiang Nan immediately started looking in the Marriage Palace.

When his eyes were almost dazzled, he finally saw Erlongnu's name tag. But he saw that there was no marriage line on her name tag.

"No wonder~" Xiang Nan was stunned, then nodded.

In the drama, Erlongnu's marriage line is also uncertain. Originally, according to Yue Lao's disciples, her destined marriage should be Erniu, but she didn't end up with Erniu. After being taught a lesson by Hou Yi, her marriage line was broken.

But it’s better this way. She is so greedy and insidious that she is really not worthy of someone as loyal and honest as Erniu.

"Humph, you don't even have a marriage. You can only live with money in this life. This is your biggest punishment." Xiang Nan then said with relief, "Helping you to find a lover is actually a bargain for you."

He originally wanted to tie Erlongnu together with the most hateful, annoying, and unromantic person in the world.

But now he thought that it would be better to let Erlongnu never have a marriage. A life of loneliness would be the greatest punishment for her.

……

Xiang Nan then left the Marriage Palace and returned to the underworld.

In the following days, he stayed with Xiaolongnu, played with her, and had fun with her.

Their marriage line has been repaired, so they are in love and delight in each other, and naturally live a very happy life every day.

The Dragon King and the Queen were happy for their daughter when they saw how happy she was.

Especially since Xiang Nan was so promising that he could actually create water out of thin air, and the amount of water he created was no less than that of the springs in the East China Sea.

In this way, even if something happens to the East China Sea spring in the future, the daughter will not have to sacrifice herself and transform into the fourth spring.

So they were naturally happier and even started planning their wedding.

On the one hand, they wanted to get married early and have grandchildren early; on the other hand, they were secretly worried that they might not be able to keep their little daughter in the end.

So they hoped that she could give birth to a child in her lifetime. That way, even if something happened in the future, they would have someone to worry about.

This also made Erlongnu very dissatisfied.

"Humph, you said you would help me ruin their marriage, but it turns out you were just lying to me." She couldn't help but curse.

At the beginning, Yue Lao's disciple had clearly promised her that he would help disrupt his sister's marriage and ruin her marriage with Zhu Bajie.

Unexpectedly, now both of them are getting married. It shows that Yue Lao's disciples are really unreliable.
