Lu Xingzhou left Haicheng in tears.

He meant well by giving Yan Lin some advice, but unexpectedly, his wife beat him up and left him with a face full of bruises.

His beautiful face was swollen like a pig's head.

Upon returning to Beijing, before he even settled in, he heard firecrackers from afar. When he got back to his house, he saw several people sitting in the hall. Among them was a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit with a stern face, who was none other than Yan Lin's father, Yan Zhouzhen.

"Oh my, my handsome nephew's face is all swollen. He's even uglier than my Yan Lin," Yan Zhouzhen said mercilessly.

Lu Xingzhou wanted to bang his head against the wall.

He twitched his lips and said irritably, "Uncle Yan, I... I accidentally fell."

"Fell and hit your face? God is too kind."

"..." Lu Xingzhou.

Uncle Yan, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute.

"I heard you went to Haicheng. Did you see my ugly son?" Yan Zhouzhen asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I saw him."

Lu Xingzhou wants to leave.

His wound hadn't healed yet, and he didn't want to be forced to rub salt into his wound.

At this moment, Lu Shaoze entered the room and saw his face, which was swollen like a pig's head. He exclaimed, "My God, did Yan Lin beat you up? I told you not to go, not to go. It's none of your business what he and his girlfriend do."

These words reached Yan Zhouzhen's ears.

His expression kept changing.

After a long while, the old man burst into laughter that echoed through the rafters: "Hahaha, hahaha, so you got beaten up by my ugly thing, huh? Well done, well done! You look like a fairy, so don't go wandering around Haicheng, especially don't go looking for my Yan Lin. He doesn't deserve to be your friend."

Lu Xingzhou twitched the corner of his mouth.

hiss.

It really hurts.

He silently wept in his heart: No, it was because he was unworthy to be Yan Lin's friend. Waaah, I'll never do such a thankless thing again.

"Alright, don't worry, I'm heading to Haicheng right now to teach my ugly son a lesson. How could someone as ugly as him possibly find a wife? Absolutely not. Could it be that he's taken a fancy to a girl even uglier than him? If they're evenly matched, they won't mind each other, and they won't scare each other if they wake up in the middle of the night." Yan Zhouzhen laughed.

The Lu brothers exchanged a glance and fell silent.

good.

Very good.

Ugly people with ugly partners will produce an extremely ugly child.

What was he thinking...?

"Let's not delay any longer. Anyway, you fairies who are fed by God don't understand my son's suffering. Don't wander around aimlessly in the future, and don't appear in front of my future daughter-in-law. It's not appropriate."

Yan Zhouzhen deliberately visited the Lu family, a family full of handsome men, to set the tone.

"..." The Lu family members.

What did they do to deserve this?

Is it wrong for them to be beautiful?

Yan Lin is taking out a wife; is this a sign that the two families are about to break off relations?

Yan Zhouzhen left in the blink of an eye.

He went home to pack his bags, planning to take his wife and children to Haicheng to meet the Yan family's future daughter-in-law, a girl named Xu Manzhi.

The old woman, Wang Cui, was filled with anxiety the whole way.

She asked cautiously, "Honey, do you think this little girl might be...blind?"

Walking at night without a light.

They must have been obsessed to choose Yan Lin.

Yan Zhouzhen glared at her, making her tremble and quickly shut her mouth.

He said irritably, "What nonsense are you talking about? You haven't even seen her yet, and you're already making wild guesses. If she turns out to be a normal girl, then we're the ones being unfair."

Wang Cui's wrinkles twitched.

The villagers talked about it a lot.

Even the village chief said that if Yan Lin finds a wife, she will most likely have some kind of defect. She might be infertile, extremely ugly, or deaf and mute. She will definitely not be a normal girl.

Wang Cui's heart trembled.

She desperately wanted her son to find an ordinary girl.

But everyone knows that Yan Lin's appearance is terrifying. Girls scream at the sight of him, let alone getting close to him or marrying him. Even just looking at him for a moment would make their legs tremble.

This Xu family girl might be a little abnormal.

She's come to terms with it.

She gave birth to the son, and with him growing up to be like this, she was prepared to remain a bachelor for life. If she were to stumble upon one by sheer luck, it would be a stroke of good fortune amidst misfortune.

The family had long since come to terms with it. No matter if Xu Manzhi was lame or ugly, she was still a woman, a woman willing to marry Yan Lin.

She is a member of the Yan family.

Seeing Wang Cui's listless appearance, Yan Zhouzhen looked at her with disdain and said in a cold tone, "Look at you, you coward. What's so great about you? Someone wants your ugly thing. You should be happy. If you keep looking so down, I'll slap you."

"Hey, hey, I'm so happy."

Wang Cui grinned, revealing a set of uneven front teeth.

Haicheng.

After Lu Xingzhou left, Xu Manzhi felt refreshed and overjoyed as Monday approached, quietly waiting for the good day to arrive.

She went out of her way to find a photo studio on the street.

The photo is black and white.

Although it's not a high-definition image, it should be quite friendly to Yan Lin.

Wenjin said that men all care about their image.

Although she doesn't care much about looks, after all, no matter how beautiful you are, time will take you away, and if you're not born ugly, you don't have any expectations in the first place, so you don't have to waste your energy.

Besides, Yan Lin's soul is the most compatible with hers.

The babies I have after this will definitely be exceptional.

She wasn't worried.

Passing by the supply and marketing cooperative, she planned to go in and buy some fabric so that Wenjin could make clothes for the baby in advance. She planned to have a baby as soon as she got married...

"Holding up the moon—"
