Chapter 220 Lies
"Mom said, when you get married, there will be endless peanuts to eat, sister, just be obedient..."
Zhong Xiaolan pursed her lips tightly, revealing a stubborn look.
After a while, she said, "I don't like peanuts..."
The way of relying on my brother to open the door is blocked.
Zhong Xiaolan felt desperate.
"Come, come, come in..." Mother Zhong welcomed the person in with a warm smile.
Hearing the sound, Zhong Xiaolan leaned over to the window crack to look out.
Besides his mother, there was also a strange man.
The man was about 1.6 meters tall, with dark skin, narrow eyes with a lewd smile, a bulbous nose, thick lips, and yellow teeth faintly visible when he smiled.
Qi Lu was limping and had some problems with his legs.
Her gaze froze, and her mind immediately recalled the man's identity.
He is a famous bachelor in my second aunt's hometown.
He worked as a carpenter, injured his leg early on, and never got married, but lived a more comfortable life than anyone else.
Zhong Xiaolan's heart sank to the bottom.
Ever since her last failed blind date with the Qin family, she had clearly felt a change in her mother's attitude towards her. She was not young anymore, but she had never been able to get married. Because of this, Mother Zhong was so anxious that blisters appeared on her mouth.
The door was pushed open with a creak.
Tears welled up in Zhong Xiaolan's eyes. She looked at her mother sadly and said, "Mom..."
Mother Zhong felt guilty when her daughter looked at her.
After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Xiao Lan, don't blame Mom. You're getting older and older. Carpenter Kang is older than you, but he's also very caring. Don't you like making clothes? He said that as long as you marry him, he will give you a sewing machine as a dowry!"
There was sadness in Zhong Xiaolan's eyes.
She held onto the last glimmer of hope and asked, "What about my work?"
"Sell it, you two are old enough, it's more appropriate to have a baby early!"
"How much gift did he give?"
Mother Zhong took a deep breath in anger and said, "What are you talking about? I am doing this for your own good!"
"If it's for my own good, let me go out..." Zhong Xiaolan's voice rose, and she tried every possible way to rush out.
Who says women have to get married?
Mother Zhong hugged her waist.
"Lanlan, be good and listen..."
"Let me go!!" Zhong Xiaolan struggled violently.
She finally understood her mother's plan.
I don’t know if this can be considered a tragedy.
Carpenter Kang stood aside like an outsider, as if watching a play.
Tears flowed from the corners of Zhong Xiaolan's eyes.
She begged bitterly, "Mom! I won't get married, please..."
Mother Zhong said ruthlessly, "It doesn't matter who you marry. Don't worry, he will definitely be a good match for you..."
"I'm going to die!" Zhong Xiaolan screamed while being locked in the house.
Mother Zhong said with an embarrassed look on her face, "This child has a hot temper. It will be fine after he gets married..."
Zhong Xiaolan understood that her mother wanted to force her to submit.
It is not so.
After Carpenter Kang finished lunch, Zhong's mother suggested, "Xiaokang has had some wine, why don't you take a rest for a while before going back home!"
Carpenter Kang nodded in agreement.
He walked towards the room with unsteady steps.
The Zhong family had three rooms in total, and it went without saying which one he wanted.
Seeing the man about to push the door open and walk in.
Zhong Xiaolan used all her strength to hit the guy.
She didn't dare stay in a room alone with this man.
Then her life would be truly ruined.
She overestimated herself and underestimated this short man, so it was no surprise that someone grabbed her arm.
Carpenter Kang, with a strong smell of alcohol on his face, smiled shamelessly and said, "Where are you..."
Zhong Xiaolan got angry and pulled hard.
