Chapter 174 Coveting

Jiang Shang and Qin Jiajia's wedding was quite a lively affair. At least everyone in the production team, whether they had free time or not, came to show their support. Whether they came to watch the spectacle or to offer their sincere blessings, they were all there.

"I think marriages without parents are unlikely to last."

"That's right. I heard the groom's family was very dissatisfied and left that very day. But the groom's parents aren't good people either; they said those nasty things in front of Xiao Taohua. Luckily, Xiao Taohua didn't care."

"That's right, there's bound to be some friction between these two."

"It's nothing, I just came to check on things. Anyway, it's their business, whether they're doing well or not is none of our business as outsiders."

"That's exactly right. It's just a pity for that female educated youth named Zhu Zhu."

"What's so pitiful about it? If you ask me, it's pitiful to actually marry that Jiang Shang. His mother is clearly not someone to be trifled with."

"What you said makes some sense."

"The newcomer is here! The newcomer is here!"

"I must say, this handsome man and beautiful woman are quite a good match."

"What's the use of having a good-looking face? It can't put food on the table."

"Stop talking, the newlyweds are here!" With a shout, everyone put on smiles of blessing again, their mouths full of words of congratulations.

Xiao Taohua also came to the wedding banquet. After all, the result was completely different from the result on the panel she saw. On the panel, Qin Jiajia and Jiang Shang's wedding banquet was attended by Jiang Shang's parents, who also gave their blessings. Everyone sincerely praised them. Only Zhu Zhu had already received the retribution she deserved.

And now...

It seems the wedding banquet has been moved up.

It seems that nothing that should have happened didn't happen because of Zhu Zhu.

As for Jiang Shang's parents, they didn't even attend.

Hmm, it seems that panel really can't be trusted.

Upon arriving at this conclusion, Little Peach Blossom nodded secretly, but also smiled and offered her blessings.

Getting married is always a joyous occasion, and regardless of how the marriage goes, it's a day to celebrate for the newlyweds.

Zhu Zhu didn't participate in this matter, but Jiang Yan thought about it for a long time and finally came. Mi Ya and Zheng Yu also came to offer their blessings.

After the lively wedding banquet, the people in the production team went back to their usual routines, busy every day. Those who worked hard were trying to earn as many work points as possible, while those who didn't work hard couldn't earn any work points even if they wanted to. Xiaolin Village didn't tolerate those who were idle and lazy.

In this leisurely moment, a piece of news suddenly spread throughout the entire production team at the speed of light.

"What did you say? Say it again?"

"The new male educated youth, named Zheng Yu, is pursuing Xiao Taohua."

"call……"

Everyone who heard the news confirmed it again and again in disbelief, and indeed, the news was true.

"No, I don't agree to this marriage!"

"I disagree!"

"Who does that educated youth think he is, coveting Little Peach Blossom? Doesn't he know who he is!"

"Exactly! Who gave him the guts! I thought that young educated man was steady and reliable, but I never expected him to have such intentions!"

"No, we have to teach him a lesson for this, so he won't get arrogant and think that there's no one left in Xiaolin Village."

"Exactly! Who does he think he is!"

Completely unaware that his actions were about to provoke a riot by the entire production team, Zheng Yu stood affectionately in front of Xiao Taohua and asked, "Can you give me a chance?"

Little Peach Blossom looked at the other person: "What kind of opportunity?"

"An opportunity to date."

"Oh, but I don't like you, so I can't agree."

"Why? Can you give me a reason?"

"dislike."

“A liking can be cultivated.”

I don't like anything about you.

“I have no bad habits, and I am a high school graduate. My parents are both leaders. I don’t think I am unworthy of you.”

Zheng Yu had already learned that Xiao Taohua's parents were both leaders in the town, and her father was the deputy director of the steel factory. As for Xiao Taohua's popularity in Xiaolin Village, Zheng Yu attributed it to her parents' status.

This kind of thing happens all the time.

As for why he pursued Xiao Taohua, Zheng Yu made his decision only after seeing so much. After all, working hard in the fields every day to earn work points was too tiring, and he couldn't keep going. Based on the experience of previous educated youth in Xiaolin Village, as long as they found a decent local villager to marry, their future life wouldn't be bad.

Rationally, Zheng Yu didn't want to do this, but he really couldn't keep going, so he wanted to find someone he could rely on and didn't want to go to the fields every day anymore.

Little Peach Blossom was his number one target and the best choice.

Little Peach Blossom looked at him and said, "You don't like me."

Zheng Yu said seriously, "I like you very much."

“I can’t see any liking in your eyes. I’ve seen the eyes of Jiang Shang and Qin Jiajia, and that’s what liking is.”

Zheng Yu frowned as he looked at the other person, not expecting that the other person was not so easy to fool.

"My feelings are rather reserved, after all, I'm not a very passionate person. I'm sorry, maybe my feelings were hidden too deep for you to see, but my heart is sincere towards you."

"What you say sounds lovely, I enjoy listening to it."

Zheng Yu felt a surge of joy: "If we're together, I'll say sweet things to you every day."

“Even when we’re not together, I hear lots of nice things said to me every day.”

"I am different from others."

"It's all the same."

"Quick, there it is!"

Just as Zheng Yu was about to say something more, a group of people from the production team swarmed around him: "Everyone..."

"It's that good-for-nothing educated youth, it's him!"

"Zheng Yu, right? You've got some nerve, trying to covet our Little Peach Blossom?"

Zheng Yu was a little confused: "Everyone..."

"Alright, if you're going to covet it, you'll have to accept our challenge first. Come on, let's fight!"

"Yes, we need to fight. Only by winning will we have a chance!"

"Little Peach Blossom, stay away from this person! He doesn't look like a good person at all!"

"Yes, Little Peach Blossom, we can't let this person hurt you."

"Okay, I'll stay away." Little Peach Blossom was always well-behaved and obedient, which pleased the people in the production team.

If it were someone in the production team or town who liked Xiao Taohua, they wouldn't have reacted so strongly, since Xiao Taohua's marriage was decided by Lin Guangsheng and his wife. But now it's some educated youth who came from who-knows-where. Educated youth, who knows what these people are up to in pursuing Xiao Taohua? Anyway, if it weren't for the fact that they couldn't stop it, most people in the production team wouldn't want their children to marry or be married to an educated youth.

Marriages are arranged between people who know each other well; there are no guarantees with people whose backgrounds are unknown.

Looking at the setup laid out in front of him, Zheng Yu was honestly a little scared.

"Come on, let's fight!"

Seeing Zheng Yu take a step back, someone couldn't resist stepping forward.

"Why? Don't you dare?"

"Gentlemen, you've misunderstood. I didn't intend to do anything." Zheng Yu swallowed.

"You weren't planning on doing anything? But I heard you were talking to Xiao Taohua about dating?"

"No, no, no, it's all a misunderstanding. I just have something I don't understand and wanted to ask Little Peach Blossom."

"so?"

"Yes, yes, that's it."

However, everyone ignored him and turned to Little Peach Blossom: "Is that so?"
