“Shen Liangdu is on a date with another woman, what else is there to say? Let’s go back and tell Grandpa and Grandma to call off this marriage.”
Da Yong slammed his hand on the table, glared at Shen Liang, and wished he could grab him and beat him up.
Shen Liang also sensed the murderous aura emanating from somewhere. He looked around and, seeing nothing amiss, returned his attention to the ledger.
However, he always felt a chill on his body.
Qiao Lian'er had to emphasize to him again: "We have no evidence, and the Shen family will absolutely not admit it. What if they turn around and say that Sister Xi'er has a lover and that she is immoral, which is why she wants to break off the engagement? How will we explain that to people? It will all be the fault of our Qiao family."
In the world she came from, if someone didn't like a marriage proposal, they would simply call it off; there was no need for so many reasons.
But here, it's truly different.
Da Cheng deeply agreed, saying that a woman's reputation is easily ruined, and by then, nothing can be done to change it.
"Brother, don't be impulsive. Now that we know so much is wrong, if we have more time, we will definitely have a reasonable basis to cancel this marriage."
Now that things have come to this, even if the Shen family ultimately chooses the Qiao family again, they are unwilling to enter into this marriage.
Da Yong sighed, pressed his fingers against his brow, and rubbed it firmly.
He had a terrible headache and felt a deep sense of resentment simmering inside him, with nowhere to vent it.
"After this is over, can I beat up Shen Liang?"
Qiao Lian'er and Da Cheng exchanged a glance, both wanting to laugh.
Before he started hitting people, the older brother was so polite.
“Sure, we’ll be in the right then and there. It doesn’t matter if our eldest brother beats him to a pulp. If the Shen family goes even further, our whole family will join forces to deal with them,” Qiao Lian’er said.
They waited for a while, but did not see the girl named Shi Murou come looking for Shen Liang.
Moreover, even if the person comes, it's just for them to verify with their own eyes. If the person insists that they are just ordinary friends, there's nothing they can do.
Qiao Lian'er thought it over carefully and came up with a solution.
"Big brother, second brother, you two go to the Han family to sell tomorrow, and I'll go to the Shi family to sell."
“I’ll go with you,” Da Cheng said.
Qiao Lian'er: "It's better to have fewer people. After all, Shen Liang knows us. If we alert him, he will hide even more secretly."
It was settled then. Even though they weren't in the mood, they followed the principle of not wasting food and ate the tea and snacks on the table before heading back.
Throughout the journey, Da Yong's stern face never relaxed.
When they saw the village, Da Cheng patted him on the shoulder, and Dayong understood, trying to adjust his expression.
Back home, it was as if nothing had happened; the family chatted and laughed.
When Da Shun saw them, he wagged his tail and came to greet them, circling around their feet.
It has now completely adapted to this place, and it licks every member of the Joe family twice when it sees them.
Qiao Yunni sat under the eaves making clothes, while Madam Feng was busy in the kitchen. Qiao Lian'er asked, "Mother, did Sister Xi'er go up the mountain too?"
"No, she's busy inside."
Qiao Lian'er walked to Qiao Xi'er's room and knocked on the door.
The door opened quickly, and Qiao Xi'er stood quietly in front of it. The warm morning light shone into the courtyard, casting a hazy glow on her delicate face. The fine downy hairs were clearly visible, as if they were melting into the light. Her smile was gentle and serene.
"Lian'er, is something the matter?"
