Resting her head on the soft fox tail, Jiuyue felt as if she had briefly returned to her childhood.
She squinted her eyes, enjoying the rare tranquility.
What surprised her even more was that her mother merely expressed concern about the path she had chosen and did not make any disparaging comments about the marriage.
She had thought up a dozen or so reasons to persuade her elders and had even prepared her trump card.
"I thought you would be against it."
"Against what?"
"Against this marriage,"
Jiuyue said.
At least that's how it usually went in most of the TV dramas she had watched recently, where the daughter brings home a lover and the family does everything they can to obstruct it, ending in an unhappy parting. This realization had made her quite nervous for a long time.
"Why would we be against it?"
Jiuyue's mother seemed to not understand and even tenderly placed her palm on Jiuyue's forehead to check her temperature.
Hmm, there were no signs of illness or fever.
