Chapter 83 Chapter 83 A sweet-talking man is unreliable

Qin San, who was also among the other men, couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid that Li Xiaohua will go back and ask Li Yunfei for help?"

In response to this, Xu Yunfan said that it was good enough that Li Yunfei was not afraid of him, so why would he be afraid of Li Yunfei?

That's not how you joke.

Xu Yunfan laughed. "What are you afraid of? Who's Li Yunfei? I haven't even settled accounts with that brat yet. Don't think I don't know that Sun Dahe dared to go to Xiao Qin's house because of his "contribution." I haven't even looked for him yet, so how dare he come to me?"

As he spoke, Xu Yunfan said lightly, "If he wants to be kicked out of the academy, just come to me. If I'm afraid of him, I'll be his grandson."

Xu Yunfan has been afraid of this word since he was a child, but he has never experienced it.

Li Yunfei, that kid, boasts that he has some knowledge and ideas in his head. He really thinks he is Zhou Yu or Zhuge Liang. He gives advice to Li Xiaohua behind her back. If Xu Yunfan doesn't settle the score with him, he will not be able to swallow this humiliation.

"No, Xu boy, how do you know that it was Li Tongsheng who gave his sister the idea?" Qin Dayou was confused. Could it be that Xu Yunfan was good at fortune-telling?

"Of course, my brothers told me!" Xu Yunfan picked up a Yuehong and followed Qin Runxue, cutting it off piece by piece and pulling out the silk. "Sun Dahe bullied me for no reason, and they helped me deal with Sun Dahe. I have to find out the reason."

After asking, I found out that Sun Dahe was beaten severely by Xu Yunfan. He held a grudge, but was afraid of Xu Yunfan's fighting ability. He didn't dare to attack Xu Yunfan openly, so he thought he was smart and wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

Shen Ruxi asked again why Sun Dahe had to provoke Xu Yunfan, and then he learned about Qin Run and how Li Xiaohua, after following Li Yunfei's instructions, instigated Sun Dahe to take Qin Run as a concubine.

When Xu Yunfan knew that Li Yunfei was giving Li Xiaohua some advice, he wanted to run to Aunt Li's house and give Li Yunfei a kick as well.

Qin Run, who was sitting next to Xu Yunfan, frowned and said softly to Xu Yunfan, "I have never offended Li Yunfei. Why does he hate me and make things difficult for me?"

"How would I know? But you don't have to worry. I'm here. If they dare to do anything bad to you, I'll take care of them." Xu Yunfan said this in a boastful manner, but the implication of pampering and favoritism in his words was obvious.

The men sitting next to Qin Run suddenly blushed and were too embarrassed to look at Xu Yunfan.

This guy really doesn't know how to be tactful. He said such things in front of so many people. Didn't he see that Run Ge'er's ears were so red that they were almost bleeding?

Such sweet words could be said in the room or on the bed, why not say them here? They were a little envious when they heard it.

Who wouldn't be happy if their man's words could be half as sweet as Xu Yunfan's?

If your heart is happy, who would find fault like a shrew all day long?

Aunt Fang laughed and said teasingly, "Xu boy, are you so protective of your husband? You don't even care about what's right or wrong?"

In response, Xu Yunfan said confidently, "If my Runge'er really went against Li Yunfei, I wouldn't care who was right or wrong. I'm here to support Runge'er, not to be a judge. If my husband doesn't help, and Runge'er gets angry and quarrels with me, who will compensate me with such a good husband?"

Aunt Liu laughed out loud, "Xu boy, did you eat honey when you went out today?"

Xu Yunfan chuckled, secretly glanced at Qin Run who kept looking down shyly, licked his lips impatiently, and said sweetly as if it was free, "No way, I am so happy to see Run brother, my heart is as sweet as if I had eaten honey."

Aunt Qin and others looked at Xu Yunfan. It was the first time they had seen such an unreserved young man. He was so sweet-mouthed that it made people feel very happy.

But often the sweeter the mouth and the better he is at coaxing people, the less reliable he is.

They were originally quite envious of Qin Run, but now they are a little worried.

Xu Yunfan came here alone, and he had no worries. He really didn't want to be with Qin Run and just leave.

Several aunts and husbands were thinking about it. They had heard Xu Yunfan say before that the custom in their place was to get married after the age of 20. That meant Xu Yunfan could only get married with Qin Run next year. By then, they would have to ask Qin Run to give Xu Yunfan a child as soon as possible. With a child to hold Xu Yunfan's hand, maybe he would really settle down.

Qin Run blushed and gently pushed Xu Yunfan's hand, telling him to "stop." Although he wanted to hear these words and thought they were nice to hear, it was obviously inappropriate.

Mr. Sun was thick-skinned and joked with a smile, but he meant something. "Xu kid, you are so sweet-mouthed. You must have coaxed people a lot in the past, right?"

Xu Yunfan, who was completely unaware that he was labeled a playboy, glanced at Qin Run when he heard this. He found that Qin Run, who had originally blushed and lowered his head and dared not look at others, was glancing at him from time to time. The meaning was self-evident.

Xu Yunfan's smile faded a little, and he looked more serious. His tone was even more serious. "No, I was busy studying before. I was either in school or at home listening to the teacher my father hired for me. How could I have time to coax others? Besides, no one dared to let me coax her!"

"My Xu family has very strict rules. Once you've chosen someone, you can't be fickle. You can't be like other people who have three wives and four concubines and fall in love with every one they see. If my father knew, he would break both my legs. So, in this life, I will only have Run Ge'er as my husband."

Xu Yunfan was actually pleased to find that Qin Run looked at him with shock. "Don't think that just because I'm nice and sweet-talking, I'm experienced and good at making girls or boys happy. That's not the case. I'm... hehe, I can't help myself. When I see someone I like, some words just come out naturally."

Xu Yunfan nudged Qin Run with his elbow and said, "Qin Run, don't you think so?"

Qin Run choked and wanted to say it was a ghost.

According to Xu Yunfan's words, when he couldn't help himself in front of Xu Yunfan, he was nervous and his brain seemed to be unable to work, let alone say such nice words to make people happy.

Seeing that Xu Yunfan really didn't consider himself an outsider at all, the other men sat among a group of aunts and husbands, and chatted with them freely, asking and answering questions without any airs of a rich young master. Xu Yunfan seemed more approachable.

Qin Dayou asked tentatively, "Xu Xiaozi, Ming'er, are you okay?"

Qin Dashu is usually a man of few words, and the men who came to welcome him to the bride's house were all his cousins, but there were very few literate people in the village.

The Qin family fled here in the early years to escape a disaster. Few of the older generation could go to school. Later, after settling in Dali Village for decades, their lives gradually became more prosperous, and only a few of the younger generation could go to school and learn to read a few words.

In the Great Yan Dynasty, welcoming a bride was not something that could be done by simply going to the bride's or the groom's home and bringing the bride and groom back smoothly.

In order to test the man's "ability", the woman or the man will find ways to test the man. If the man passes the test, he can be welcomed back as his wife or husband.

However, none of Qin Dashu's brothers can read. Although the man Qin Dashu is going to marry tomorrow is his second marriage, his family is well-off and he has a younger brother who has studied for three years. If Qin Dashu and his brothers go to welcome the bride, they may be "challenged". Didn't Xu Yunfan say that he has read a lot of books? Maybe he can take over when the time comes.

Qin Dayou has already married, and I can't go with Qin Dayou to welcome the bride, so I am very worried, fearing that my cousins ​​will be useless.

Qin Dashu finally found a husband, and Qin Dayou was very worried about it.

Xu Yunfan shook his head. "It's okay. I have nothing else to do tomorrow except attending Brother Dashu's wedding. What's wrong?"

As soon as Xu Yunfan saw Qin Dayou, he knew something was wrong with him.

It was rare for the other party to ask for help, so Xu Yunfan couldn't refuse. Besides, Qin Dayou was not a person without sense of propriety, and he would not ask for help even for important matters.

Qin Dayou washed his hands and pulled Xu Yunfan aside. "Xu boy, I have a favor to ask for your help on behalf of Dashu."

Apart from being the best man, what else can he do to help Qin Dashu?

Xu Yunfan: "Brother Dayou, do you want me to go with Brother Dashu to welcome the bride tomorrow?"

"Right." Qin Dayou clapped his hands. "That's what I wanted to ask you for. I think you're good at flattering people, and you're smart. You've been educated for so many years, so your brain must be faster than ours. If my brother-in-law's family encounters any problems, and they can't handle it, don't we still have you?"

Oh, it’s just to pick up the bride, it’s not a big deal, just go.

Besides, Qin Dayou was nice to talk to, so Xu Yunfan was delighted and said generously, "It's a small matter. Don't worry, Brother Dayou. I'll go with Brother Dashu tomorrow and will definitely..."

"The man your brother Dashu is going to marry is called Fang Ge'er. He is the second child in the family. You can just call him Fang Er Ge."

"Oh, then don't worry. I will definitely ask Brother Dashu to bring Brother Fang back tomorrow." Xu Yunfan heard from Qin Run that when a daughter marries a son here, the elders of the other party rarely make things difficult for the man. Instead, their peers will deliberately "make things difficult" for the man who comes to pick up the bride and test him. Xu Yunfan is not afraid of these. He has to perform well now so that when he gets married next year, people will not make things too difficult for him.

After Xu Yunfan finished his promise, he glanced at Qin Dashu, who was cleaning pig intestines with a few other men, and said, "Brother Dashu doesn't talk much."

"That's right, you can see it too. With someone like him, we can't count on him tomorrow. His relative was introduced by my aunt through a matchmaker. I've never met Fang'er, but I heard that she's good-looking. Although she was married before, she divorced and returned home after only six months. The man now regrets his decision and wants to come back to be with Fang'er."

Qin Dayou was very distressed about this. Even if he didn't tell Xu Yunfan about these things now, Xu Yunfan would know about them in the future. In the village, any secret known by more than three people is no longer a secret.

Fang Ge'er and that man, Lin Feng, can be said to be childhood sweethearts, so it's natural that they have feelings for each other.

The Fang family felt that Lin Feng was not a good man and did not care enough about the family. He only thought about playing all day long, and the family relied entirely on the elders for support.

Even if the Lin family has some wealth, when the elders get old and can no longer earn money, what will the younger ones spend their money on?

Moreover, from childhood to adulthood, Lin Feng has never done any work. He has been accustomed to a life of having everything provided for him. If you ask him to find a job, will Lin Feng be willing to do it?

As parents, we think about the long term, but we can't resist the two children. One is in love with the other. Fang Ge'er is young and has never been the head of the household. He doesn't know the hardships of being the head of the household and he only wants to marry his childhood sweetheart.

Fang's parents loved their child very much, so they turned a blind eye and agreed.

They thought that maybe after getting married, Lin Feng would become more sensible, grow up, and take on the responsibility of a family.

But just two days after getting married to Fang Ge'er, Lin Feng went on a long journey with a few friends, saying that he was going on business.

In fact, this man did not go out to do business, but ran away with a girl in a brothel.

Fang Ge'er waited at her husband's house for half a year until someone discovered Lin Feng living with a girl from his former brothel and told Fang's parents about it. Only then did they realize they had been deceived.

Although divorced men and women are encouraged to remarry nowadays, it is still not as good as the first marriage of a virgin.

Married men and women, even if they marry again, often marry widowers or men who have divorced their wives, or men who cannot find a wife for some reason. Marrying such men will only make them suffer.

But if I don't marry, people will point fingers at me and talk behind my back.

Fang Ge'er divorced and returned to her parents' home. What should she do in the future?

Fang's parents were worried. They didn't lack him for food, but what about the future?

Fang's mother cried and hit Fang Ge'er: "Look, this is the husband you chose? I told your father that he was unreliable and not a good person, but you refused to listen and insisted on marrying him. Now that you're here, why are you crying? What are you going to do in the future?"

It is said that the deeper the love, the more severe the criticism. Although Fang's mother's words were harsh, every word was full of worry.

Fang Ge'er has a younger brother who is currently unmarried. He thinks Fang Ge'er is a good brother and the two brothers have a good relationship. He supports Fang Ge'er's decision to divorce and return home, but what will happen after he gets married? How will his sister-in-law or brother-in-law treat Fang Ge'er?

Fang Ge'er also regretted it, but what could he do? He could only admit his mistake, "Mom, I was wrong. I shouldn't have disobeyed you back then. I was wrong. I won't do this again."

After learning a lesson, he felt the pain.

He couldn't see clearly the man he grew up with as a childhood sweetheart, and he ruined his life. From then on, he dared not disobey his parents again.

Sometimes, what the elders say is indeed correct. They are so much older than him, and although they have not experienced as much as he has, their judgment of people is definitely more accurate than his.

After Fang Ge'er learned about Lin Feng's situation, she was so angry that she went back to her parents' home crying, regardless of her parents-in-law's advice.

After staying alone in the empty house for the past six months, Fang Ge'er has come to understand that no matter how good his parents-in-law are to him, he cannot turn back easily. After all, he will not be living with them in the future.

Only two days after getting married, Lin Feng abandoned him and ran away with a girl from a brothel. Where did this leave him?

Now that his crime has been exposed, Fang Ge'er has become a laughing stock among the neighbors.

Fang Ge'er did not soften her heart in the face of Lin Feng's desperate pleas to stay, and resolutely separated from Lin Feng and went home. She also agreed with Fang's mother's words and stayed at home to wait for marriage again.

Fang's mother said that he was lucky because the matchmaker found him an honest man. Although he was not from the town, his family had enough food and clothing, and his parents were kind. If he married him, he would not have to worry about being criticized by his mother-in-law. The man was also hardworking and honest. Even if he was not from the town, Fang Ge'er was a second-time bride, so how could he be so picky?

If you want to marry someone in town, that's fine. Those men who are divorced and have children, those who are widowed, those who have married several times but all their wives ran away, will you marry them?

The matchmaker said that Qin Dashu was getting married for the first time and was a bit dull and honest. He couldn't use sweet words to make the boy happy like Lin Feng. But Lin Feng was good at making people happy and had a sweet mouth, but what was the result?

Fang Ge'er had suffered a loss once, so how could he not know that a man's words are lies. If he can make you happy, he can naturally make other people fall in love with him.

Only then did Fang Ge'er agree to the marriage. After being scolded by Lin's parents, Lin Feng "came to his senses" and broke up with the brothel girl, wanting to go back to her.

Lin Feng was a man who knew how to use self-torture tactics. He would wait at the gate of Fang's house before dawn every day. Even though he was beaten several times by Fang Ge'er's brother Fang Jiang, he would still come to Fang's house rain or shine and beg to see Fang Ge'er. He said that he knew he was wrong and sincerely regretted it, and hoped that Fang Ge'er would go back with him. He would definitely turn over a new leaf and never do bad things again, and live a good life with Fang Ge'er.

How can you let go of a relationship that has lasted for more than ten years? Fang Ge'er is a soft-hearted person, and he really likes Lin Feng. Otherwise, he would not have insisted on marrying him despite his parents' disapproval.

Fang Ge'er was a little shaken. "Mom, after all, he and I have been together for more than ten years. Maybe he really has realized his mistake and repented?"

There's no point in regretting it.

Fang's mother really wanted to split her son's head open to see what was inside. How could they, such smart people, give birth to a fool like him?

If Fang's mother hadn't stopped him, Fang Ge'er might have gone out to meet people.

Fang's father and mother were very disappointed with him and scolded Fang Ge'er angrily, "They say that a dog will never change its eating habits. You silly child, do you really think that he came to find you because he regretted his mistakes? Mother tells you, no, it's because he caused such a trouble. It won't be easy to get a husband and wife in the future. You are stupid and can't see him clearly. Now in our Beizhen, everyone knows that Lin Feng visits brothels and has ambiguous relationships with the girls in the brothels. He does nothing but wait for his parents to eat. This... A man like that, unless he's a good man, wouldn't jump into the fire pit unless he's stupid. But you're stupid. If you go see him again, and you get wronged and can't live anymore, you'll have to bear it yourself. Don't come back and cry to us. We've said what we should say and advised you, but you didn't listen, and you deserve it. I'm putting this out there today. Think about it yourself. Lin Feng treated you like that, making you the target of public criticism and ridicule. Why doesn't he treat you well for the sake of your relationship of more than ten years?"

Fang's mother's words were like a wake-up call to Fang Ge'er.

Fang's mother is a down-to-earth person. She told the matchmaker that Lin Feng would probably come and make trouble on the wedding day, and she hoped that the matchmaker would tell Qin Dashu's family. Otherwise, if Lin Feng really came to make trouble, what would Uncle Qin and the others think?

Qin Dashu is also a man. He went to welcome his husband back home, but Lin Feng came out to make trouble. What's going on?

If Lin Feng cries and tries to commit suicide, and Fang Ge'er is not resolute enough and becomes wavering, what will Qin Dashu think?

Would he think that Fang Ge'er was fickle, greedy, and had her cake and eat it too? She had clearly agreed to marry him, but she was still in contact with her ex-husband, and was wavering and hesitant. Wouldn't Qin Dashu feel embarrassed and upset?

In this case, how can Fang Ge'er get a good attitude in the Qin family in the future?

If Lin Feng came to the wedding without informing Qin Dashu and the others in advance, it would be a bad look if Lin Feng unilaterally harassed Fang Ge'er and something really happened.

Xu Yunfan listened with great interest, "Oh, so, when we go to pick up the bride tomorrow, Lin Feng might come and make trouble, right?"
