After Gu Laoda calmed down, he rubbed Fangfang's head to make sure he was no longer in pain before continuing to ride forward.

He asked his two daughters to get in the car, but neither of them wanted to.

"Come on, daughter. Daddy promises to ride carefully this time and I definitely won't bump into any more rocks."

After much persuasion and coaxing, Pearl and her companion finally got into the car slowly.

This time, Gu Laoda rode much more steadily, and the previous situation did not occur again.

The four of us in the car played for about an hour before heading home.

"Dad, Dad, Mom, Mom, Uncle took us for a ride, it was so much fun! I'm on the bicycle! Yay!"

Fangfang excitedly showed off to her parents.

Sun Xiaomeng came out of the house and saw the little guy's excited face. She quickly took a towel to wipe his sweat and said, "Did you thank your uncle and aunt? Your uncle took you for a drive, so you should thank him. The car belongs to your aunt, so you should thank her too."

Upon hearing this, Fangfang immediately ran to Gu Laoda to express her gratitude, and after thanking him, she rushed around the yard looking for her third aunt to say "thank you" as well.

Pearl and the other two also went to thank Jiang Jinxiu.

The whole courtyard was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

…………

Jiang Jinxiu's day went smoothly.

On the other side, Liu Jianjun was filled with regret and anger.

Liu Jianjun had no choice but to agree to marry He Mei that morning.

He just couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.

Something feels off about everything.

He and He Mei met last night in the grove, not at the threshing ground.

The two of them fainted from fright after seeing the tiger.

They thought they were finished.

But the truth is, they all woke up the next day in the threshing ground, still in the same position and in the same way.

This is completely pushing them to their doom.

Trample their faces underfoot.

Was that tiger fake?

Was someone deliberately setting them up?

Aside from Jiang Jinxiu's recent change in attitude towards him, he couldn't think of anyone else who would be so intolerant of him.

In his dream, Jiang Jinxiu was completely obedient to him.

But why has things changed recently?

Was that dream just a dream? But how could a dream be so real?

Jiang Jinxiu used to listen to him without question. When did she start to change?

Liu Jianjun found Song Wan'er: "Wan'er, why did you ask me to get Jiang Jinxiu's bracelet before?"

Song Wan'er's eyes flickered; she didn't want to tell him what she had overheard at the hospital that day.

With that bracelet, she could go to Kyoto and find that family, ensuring she would never have to worry about food or clothing.

At worst, she can just avoid meeting those two women at the hospital.

They said it's okay to meet other members of their family as well.

She cried, "You're about to marry He Mei, why are you still asking? Waaah... You heartless man, you said you'd be with me forever. Waaah..."

Looking around, there was no one there.

Liu Jianjun held Song Wan'er tightly as she cried.

No matter how much she struggled, she didn't let go.

"Wan'er, listen to me, I was framed. I've always loved you." Liu Jianjun said sincerely.

Song Wan'er gave up struggling and asked in a muffled voice, "Who plotted against you?"

"I don't know either. Wan'er, you have to know that I've always loved you. How could I possibly like that country girl?"

With tears in her eyes, Song Wan'er looked up at him and asked, "Then how could you do that kind of thing with her, say she was your girlfriend, and even promise to marry her?"

Liu Jianjun coaxed softly, "Everyone says I was set up, but I had no choice. There were so many people here today. If I hadn't said that, you would never have seen me again. Do you want me to be sent to the militia?"

Song Wan'er shook her head.

Here, only Liu Jianjun would unconditionally protect her and help her.

"But you're going to marry her, what am I supposed to do then?"

“Honey, my marriage to her is only temporary. In the countryside, we only have a wedding ceremony and don’t go to the civil affairs bureau to register the marriage. We’ll try our best to get back to the city. Once we’re back, she won’t be able to do anything about it.”

In rural areas, few people go to the civil affairs bureau to get a marriage certificate. They usually just hold a banquet in the village and consider it a wedding.

"Really?"

"Really, sweetie, don't cry. You have to believe that I'm sincere towards you."

Liu Jianjun comforted Song Wan'er for a while before getting back to the main topic.

"Wan'er, tell me, why did you ask me to go and ask Jiang Jinxiu for her bracelet?"

Song Wan'er was cautious and didn't tell the truth.

“I really like that bracelet; it’s beautiful. And seeing how much she cherishes it, it must be very useful. If she were to exchange it for money, she could get some cash.”

Liu Jianjun's eyes darkened slightly. Was that really all there was to it?

He was somewhat skeptical, but he knew he wouldn't get any answers from the question now.

The distance between the two was constantly closing.

Before I knew it, the temperature around me started to rise.

Before long, the two became completely honest with each other.

The two were so engrossed in their romance that they were completely unaware that a pair of eyes were watching them with venomous intent from behind the bushes not far away.

He Mei's eyes were blazing with anger, but she also knew that now was not the time to rush out.

With today's events causing such a stir, she has no choice but to marry Liu Jianjun.

If we expose Liu Jianjun and Dong Wan'er's affair again, wouldn't that be a slap in the face?

They'll definitely be sent to the militia.

Joining the militia would be a painful experience, regardless of the outcome, which is not what she wants.

She glared venomously at the two men tumbling together: Want to get rid of me? No way. Not only do you want a wedding banquet, but you also need to get your marriage certificate at the Civil Affairs Bureau. And all I want is two hundred yuan in betrothal gifts. Let's see how you manage to be so promiscuous then.
