You are my wife, don't doubt it!
Page 87
"Marriage," the man rubbed his thick black hair, "marriage is a sacrament, one of the seven sacraments established by the Lord himself. It is a vow by which a man and a woman become lifelong partners; its purpose is the happiness of the couple and the birth and upbringing of children..."
The girl thought to herself, if I want to listen to you reciting the book here, why don’t you go to Baidu yourself?
Although he thought so in his heart, he asked, "Pledge?"
"Yes, it is also called a covenant." Yu Bo explained: "Compared with a contract, a covenant is a higher-level, sacred agreement. For example, the Old Testament and the New Testament are covenants between God and man."
"Is that so..." The girl's eyes were a little blurry.
Holy? Really?
"Then, does love have to exist in marriage?" the girl asked, "Or is it enough to just abide by the contract, ah no, the order established by God?"
Yu Bo thought for a moment: "Traditionally, having children is the main purpose of marriage, and love between husband and wife is placed second. But after the Second Vatican Council, the Church believes that love is the most important..."
"So," the girl smacked her lips and asked, "it's my sacred duty to love my future husband, right?"
Yu Bo frowned and said, "I was thinking, maybe you should tell me about the specific problem you encountered first?"
The girl hesitated for a long time.
When the girl learned that her daughter 30 years later was connected to their lives through the mirror in Xiao Yao's house, she instinctively decided that this matter must not be known to outsiders, not even a fourth person.
She had never discussed this matter with Xiao Yao or Shen Tianyun, and the three of them kept the secret tacitly.
Not to mention how many people would believe it if they told it to others - what's more important is, if someone really believed it, what consequences would happen? This is not something they can deduce.
But now, the girl wants to tell the uncle in front of her.
Her reason, will and emotions were all urging her to do so.
First of all, reason told her that it would be difficult to find a second person who would believe her, be trustworthy, and be able to help in a short period of time.
Emotionally, she longed for sharing and guidance: the secrets of time-space connection and future husband were like some kind of secret XP that had been with her since childhood. If she kept it in her heart, it would eventually become moldy and then mushrooms would grow. Moreover, she was now running away from home, like a rootless duckweed floating in the ups and downs of the waves. In this situation, this psychological need was even more obvious.
The reason why she chose to trust Yu Bo was not because of his professional identity. First of all, the girl was not a believer. Secondly, even if she was a believer, as long as she was not naive, there was no reason to trust every clergyman she was not familiar with without reservation.
When the girl was an exchange student in Spain, she met many priests. The locals who hated the church called them "crows" because they always wore black clothes. Some of them looked kind-hearted, while others were not flattering at first glance. However, Yu Bo was different from each of them - not only because he helped and guided everyone without reservation, and not only because he generously gave away his precious Queen Mary relics, but more importantly, it was due to the girl's intuition.
In her short seventeen years of life, this strong intuition has never let her down.
At this time, the girl didn't know that Yu Bo had kept the secret of Xiao Yao and Yu Luying's symbiosis for so long, not even telling her own sister. If she knew this, she would further confirm her judgment.
Since Yu Bo is everyone's "partner", "partner" must be treated sincerely.
No, it's not, the girl realized that even if all of the above could not be said to be excuses, they were not the most fundamental reasons.
The most fundamental reason that really made the girl make this decision was "the palace".
The girl knew very well that Teacher Yao was not the mastermind behind this incident. Since the secret of the temple had not been completely solved, it was hard to say that there would not be another adventure. A person might not encounter a supernatural event in his life. In a month, two supernatural events, "the future daughter came to the door" and "the shadow world in the mirror", occurred consecutively. Both of them were related to the mirror. The probability of this was so low that it could be ignored. Therefore, this was undoubtedly the same supernatural event.
They also travel to other time and space through mirrors. Some mirrors lead to the secret world inside people, while others lead to the future. Why? Apart from Yu Bo, they can't find anyone else to turn to. Since Yu Bo has mysterious knowledge in this area and is willing to provide support to the "adventure team", and they are counting on him to help them solve the mystery behind this series of events, hiding such a secret from Yu Bo will undoubtedly increase the communication and puzzle-solving costs of the team. If something irreversible happens in the future, it will only be more regretful.
This is obviously an unacceptable risk.
"You will keep it a secret, right?" the girl made a final ritual confirmation.
“Of course.”
"Actually, the reason why I associate with Xiao Yao..."
……
……
When Yu Bo sent the girl to the church door, the sunset was already beautiful.
"Thank you, Bo, thank you for what you said to me. It was very inspiring." The girl grabbed the hem of her suit with one hand: "Especially, this is the first time someone has explained the meaning of 'obedience' in marriage to me like this. I will think about it carefully."
"Don't push yourself too hard," Yu Bo had already changed into a full set of basketball jerseys. The black AJs on his feet seemed to be the same pair that the girl bought for Xiao Yao today. "Submit in theology has a very profound meaning. It is different from the imperative submission like Obey. It emphasizes a spirit of love and devotion. A husband and wife are like the head and the body, originally one..."
"In fact, I feel much better just talking about it," the girl laughed happily, "I've been feeling really depressed for a while. I can't share this with anyone except Xiao Yao and Tian Yun."
"I understand." Yu Bo looked at the passing vehicles, accompanied the girl across the road, and walked to the side of St. Francis Xavier School.
"I was worried that even Brother Bo wouldn't believe me, believe what I said..." The girl put on her goggles, baseball cap and mask, and looked for Xiao Yao in the endless stream of people leaving school.
"I didn't say I believed you," Yu Bo said with a smile, "I just admitted that this is a possibility, a possibility that can logically explain what has happened so far.
"And I never ignore any possibility, even if it sounds counterintuitive at first."
The girl didn't say anything, but just looked at the students walking out of the gate of St. Francis High School.
Among them, some boys walked together, some girls walked together, some walked in a large group in a noisy manner, and some walked alone with their heads down, holding their backpack's shoulder straps.
From time to time, the girl could see a boy and a girl walking past her, talking and laughing intimately.
Vitality, vitality, freedom, diversity, color. These words popped into the girl's mind.
It was rare that she felt a little nostalgic, missing and envious of the life in a co-educational school.
"Brother Bo, here you come! Come on, come on, I've been waiting for you!"
The voice was very familiar, and the girl recognized him as the "hairtail".
"Hairtail!" the girl called out, "Where's he? Why isn't he with you?"
"Who is it?" Hairtail was stunned: "Who are you?"
This is a bit embarrassing.
The girl quickly glanced around and didn't see Zhang Zhengkai, so she moved closer to the hairtail and pulled her mask down.
"Oh, sister-in-law...cousin, right? Are you here to see Xiao Yao?" Daiyu clapped his hands and then patted his thigh: "Brother Yao just left, didn't you run into him?"
"If you go after him now, you should be able to catch up." Zhang Jialong pointed in the direction he usually went.
"You look so beautiful today!" Chen Lu jumped over and hugged the girl affectionately.
"Lulu, you too." The girl hugged her back with one hand and put on the mask with the other hand.
"What? Isn't this just my school uniform?" Chen Lu pulled the clothes on his chest.
"Lulu looks good in anything she wears." The two girls were so familiar with each other that it didn't seem like they had just met for the second day.
At this time, Shen Jie saw Yu Luying, walking past her alone, with her head down and a bag on her back.
"Uncle." Seeing Yu Bo, Yu Luying called out crisply, and then repeatedly looked up and down at Shen Jie, who was wearing a suit and small leather shoes: "Sister?"
"Ah, hi, hi." Since she was recognized, Shen Jie had no choice but to wave awkwardly but politely.
--split line--
At the same time, our classmate Xiao Yao was walking happily home from school alone.
"Only the mountains are hidden among the white clouds, butterflies fly freely in the heart, look at the sunset blooming in the sky, there is a group of creeks and returning birds..." Xiao Yao sang the disordered and unheard lyrics while kicking a can.
First, kick the can away with a big kick, then walk over and kick it again.
Xiao Yao knew that he was a high school student, not an elementary school student, but who cares? He was just happy.
He bought a bunch of big skewers of meat from the Western Region BBQ stall, which he usually didn't want to go to, and prepared to go back and feed them to his wife and daughter.
What did Shen Tianyun say? Being rich is so plain and boring.
The eldest daughter must have never eaten such "unhygienic" food, so let her try it. As for my daughter, according to her own words, she has never seen anyone selling food on the roadside... The world is really going downhill.
What is life? This is fucking life.
"This is really all I have, I'm not lying to you!" A wailing voice interrupted Xiao Yao's thoughts.
Because he only had the change he needed today, and he was in a hurry to get home, so he walked through this alley that was rumored to be unsafe. Could it be...
Xiao Yao hid aside, leaned his head out from the corner, and took a breath of cold air.
About five or six, or six or seven guys who looked like bad boys, surrounded a short girl with short hair who was squatting on the ground.
That girl is quite pretty.
"I'm really not Wu Tingyan, you've got the wrong person!"
"Why are you pretending, Wu Tingyan? Do you think we won't recognize you if you cut your hair?" The guy in the lead was playing with a GBA:
"You've become rich recently, you have such a nice outfit, and you bought such an expensive machine - do you think I don't recognize this model? And, you only have 20 yuan on you? It's like this every time, do you think I'm stupid?"
"No, I'm telling the truth," the short-haired girl cried, sounding a bit like a boy: "I changed my pants when I went out today..."
The bad boys burst into laughter: "Brother Chen, listen, is this the first person we've seen going out to change pants this month?"
The little man in white clothes said seriously: "When you meet a weak person, you should draw your sword..."
"You're talking nonsense!" The little man in red clothes interrupted him rudely: "When you meet a strong person, you should let them know who is stronger. Come on!"
Although he had made the decision, rushing out to act as a hero was not an option. After all, the other side had a large number of people, and he was not in a mirror and did not possess any special combat power.
The guy with the crew cut, known as "Brother Chen," grabbed the short-haired girl's face and said, "Since you won't give it to us, we'll just search it ourselves."
Xiao Yao pressed 110 on his mobile phone and carefully turned it to silent mode before pressing the button.
He was about to press the call button when his fingers suddenly froze.
He saw the guy take off the girl's shoes and carefully look for money under the insoles.
The other two little hooligans had already started to pull down her trousers.
It's over, it's really over.
Xiao Yao's fists hardened.
I swear to be kind to the weak, I swear to stand up to violence, I swear to fight all wrongs, I swear to fight for the defenseless...
"Hey, that's enough." Xiao Yao took off his black square-framed glasses, put them in his pocket, and walked out with a deliberately frivolous look: "Don't you see where we are? This is Bo Ge's territory."
"Brother Bo?" The guy with the crew cut looked at this seemingly weak uninvited guest and said, "Who is he? I've never heard of him."
"What about Brother Long?" Xiao Yao continued to bluff: "Zhang Jialong, the leader of our Saint Francis!"
The gangsters laughed happily, and the airplane head picked up a piece of steel bar on the ground. Damn, why is there a steel bar in this place?
Xiao Yao was a little panicked.
"Tell that idiot Zhang Jialong to come over. I'm going to beat him up too to settle the score for last time." The man with the crew cut held the steel bar in his right hand, patted his left hand gently, and walked towards Xiao Yao.
"You...you don't come over here!" Xiao Yao put down his schoolbag, held two shoulder straps in his left hand, and protected himself: "I've called 110, the police will be here soon!"
The guy with the airplane head and his followers exchanged glances, and the six of them rushed forward. The guy with the airplane head took the lead, swung the steel bar in his hand, and smashed it down on Xiao Yao's thigh.
Xiao Yao heard the whistling sound of the steel bars falling and subconsciously closed his eyes.
The steel bar did not fall on him as he had imagined.
Xiao Yao only felt a numbness in his palm, and the steel bar fell on his schoolbag.
Although the schoolbag is made neither of iron nor wood, it is filled with textbooks and exercise books, so its defensive power is surprisingly good.
What's going on? Pure automatic blocking? Maybe it should be called muscle memory?
Before he could react, several other fists had already flown to his face!
Xiao Yao raised his "shield" to block the two fists, and the skewer of meat in his right hand directly pierced the third person's eyes!
Xiao Yao was suddenly panicked when he thrust the skewer of meat in his hand. If he poked someone's eye, he would have to pay money even if he didn't lose the lawsuit. Hesitating, his hand slowed down. The man yelled and retreated far away. He didn't stab him, but he kept cursing in the dialect of Shanghai.
Then he kicked the fourth man away.
Xiao Yao became excited, shouting something in Spanish that he couldn't even understand, and slammed his schoolbag heavily on the face of an enemy.
He has already reacted.
Although he could not summon Don Quixote to fight for him in the real world, nor could he conjure up armor and a sword, his spiritual fortress still allowed his body to inherit the knight's martial arts.
At this moment, although he had no armor on his body and no sword in his hand, he had the golden armor in the book, and with the help of the schoolbag, he was able to fight back and forth with this group of little hooligans.
Seeing how good Xiao Yao was at fighting, the remaining few people exchanged glances and did not dare to step forward.
"Old bastard! You're really something!" The guy with the tightrope cheered and swung the steel bar to attack again. The other guys also surrounded him timidly after being scolded by the guy with the tightrope.
Xiao Yao fought with them for a few more rounds. Although he knocked down one of them and blocked the attack of the steel bars, he was still hit by several punches. Fortunately, none of them hit the vital parts. In addition, he was full of adrenaline at the time, so he didn't feel much pain.
But the problem was physical strength - after all, the backpack was not a standard weapon, difficult to use and too heavy. After several fights, he was already feeling out of breath. The opposing camp also saw this weakness and started a round-the-clock battle under the command of the airplane head.
We can't keep going like this for long.
Reality is not a martial arts novel, let alone a fantasy. We are all adults - uh, underage men. In this narrow alley, no matter how strong your martial arts skills are, it will be a stretch - not to mention that the opposing boss is equipped with weapons.
In the Chinese game of Go, four black pieces can capture a white piece by surrounding it. This shows that the ancients also knew that no matter how strong a warrior is, it is difficult to deal with four strong opponents at the same time.
Of course, there is a saying that goes "Strength can defeat skill". Xiao Yao's strength, agility, speed and endurance are all superimposed on Yu Luying's values, which may have helped him to persist until now, but unfortunately...
