Chapter 77: The Unmarried Sister-in-Law Marries the Brother-in-Law
Zhou Yong: “…?”
He stared at his masterpiece again and again, thinking: My painting can't be that bad, right? Or does it mean that my wife has no artistic talent?
"Is it ugly? I think it's pretty."
nice?
What's so good about it?
The painting looks like a pig!
Li Caiyun thought about this and asked, "Who on earth are you drawing?"
Zhou Yong stood up slowly: "It's you!"
Li Caiyun felt as if she was struck by lightning. She stared at Zhou Yong in a daze. When she came to her senses, she stomped her feet in anger.
"I don't look like that!"
Zhou Yong smiled: "Are you sure?"
Li Caiyun glanced at Zhou Yong's masterpiece on the ground and said sullenly, "Is this how I look in your eyes?"
Zhou Yong suppressed his laughter: "What else?"
Li Caiyun felt so aggrieved that she turned around angrily, leaving Zhou Yong with her back.
"Angry?"
Li Caiyun lowered her head and said nothing, her toes rolling back and forth on the ground.
Zhou Yong looked around and held her hand: "Don't be angry, I was just kidding you."
Li Caiyun pouted and looked at Zhou Yong: "Is this how I look in your eyes?"
Zhou Yong looked at the unhappy Li Caiyun and was amused: "You care so much about your appearance?"
There is no woman who doesn't care about her appearance, and Li Caiyun is no exception.
Especially in front of the person she loved deeply, Zhou Yong gave her such an evaluation. Although she knew it was false, she still couldn't accept it.
Li Caiyun looked at him without saying anything, with unhappy look written all over her face.
Zhou Yong raised his hand and scratched her nose, saying in a doting tone: "My wife is the most beautiful. It's my poor painting skills that made me paint you like this..."
When Li Caiyun heard this, she showed her eight teeth and smiled like a little fox!
Zhou Yong thought to himself: This silly girl is really easy to coax.
The two were looking at each other affectionately under a big tree when Liu Dazhuang showed up to spoil the mood.
Li Caiyun hurriedly pulled back her hand that Zhou Yong was holding, glanced at Liu Dazhuang not far away, and lowered her head with a red face.
Zhou Yong knew that his young wife could not be wiped away, so he took a step forward without leaving a trace and covered Li Caiyun's entire body.
Liu Dazhuang came up to them and asked: "What are you doing here?"
They met Liu Dazhuang. If they met Cao Biao or Xing Laoqi, these two would make fun of them no matter what they said.
When Zhou Yong explained the situation, Liu Dazhuang pursed his lips and said, "Then I'll wait with you."
"Okay, let's do our best to create opportunities for Ma San."
Liu Dazhuang nodded. He was a little tired, so he turned around and sat down on the ground.
As soon as he sat down, Ma San's fiancée's family came towards the village entrance cursing.
There were two people in total, one of them was the girl's father, and the other was an older man Zhou Yong did not know.
Liu Dazhuang pounded his leg and stood up. He said to himself, "Look at this situation. Liu Quan didn't get any advantage from the Ma family."
Liu Quan?
"His name is Liu Youquan, not Liu Quan."
Liu Dazhuang slapped his forehead. He remembered that Ma San's father-in-law was named Liu Youquan. "I remembered it wrongly."
Zhou Yong smiled and said, "We'll see what happens later. Whether Ma San can have a home depends on you and me."
Liu Dazhuang responded, and the two of them talked in low voices. Soon Liu Youquan and the other man arrived at the intersection.
Zhou Yong came forward and said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, do you still remember me?"
Liu Youquan looked at Zhou Yong and said thoughtfully: "I don't remember, who are you?"
They had met once when Ma San got engaged. How could Liu Youquan remember Zhou Yong after more than a year?
He introduced himself, and after listening to his words, Liu Youquan's face darkened.
"You are waiting for us here, are you trying to persuade my family and the Ma family not to cancel the engagement? If so, you'd better not say anything..."
Zhou Yong smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, I understand how you feel. We can talk about some things slowly."
talk?
Liu Youquan was furious when he thought of what happened to the Ma family: "What are we talking about? It's clearly the Ma family's problem, but they actually asked us to return the betrothal gift in full without missing a single cent..."
It is a fact that Ma San lost a leg, so it is understandable that the Liu family came to cancel the engagement.
Liu Youquan was indeed a good-for-nothing, and he did not want to return the betrothal gift in full. But Ma Youcai and his wife were even less good-for-nothings, and they said that if the betrothal gift was not returned in full, they would go to the police station and sue the Liu family for marriage fraud.
Now they give Liu Youquan two choices, one is to marry his daughter into the Ma family, and the other is to return the betrothal gift in full.
Liu Youquan had already spent all the money for his daughter's engagement with Ma San. He couldn't return the betrothal gift in full, but he didn't want to marry his daughter off!
After listening to Liu Youquan's words, Zhou Yong looked at Liu Dazhuang.
Liu Dazhuang couldn't help but mutter to himself: "Ma Youcai actually asked you to marry his daughter?"
This was beyond Liu Dazhuang's expectations. He thought Ma Youcai and his wife would not care about Ma San!
But the next second Liu Youquan said: "Ma San is disabled, how can I marry my daughter to him? Ma Youcai said that my daughter should marry his youngest son..."
Brother Ma San is only fifteen years old this year and is not even old enough to get married.
Ma Youcai meant that Liu Youquan's daughter should wait for his son for a few years, and when his son reached the marriageable age, the two children could get married.
Liu Youquan was naturally unwilling to do so. Not to mention the age difference between them, it would be embarrassing if this matter got out.
Liu Dazhuang couldn't help but clench his outstretched hands into fists, and cursed Ma Youcai and his wife for eighteen generations in his heart.
My brother is still alive, but he actually let his sister-in-law, who had not yet married into the family, marry his younger brother-in-law. Most people would not do this.
Zhou Yong didn't expect that Ma Youcai and his wife would do such a thing. It really surprised him.
Liu Youquan was so angry that he pointed to the sky and cursed Ma Youcai and his wife.
Zhou Yong looked at Liu Youcai who was about to be angry to death, and said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, don't be angry."
How could Liu Youquan not be angry?
He thought he could gain some advantage in breaking off the engagement, but Ma Youcai and his wife came up with this insidious trick.
Now he is in a dilemma. It is not right to marry his daughter, and it is not right not to marry his daughter either.
After hearing what Zhou Yong said, Liu Youquan snorted and turned his face away.
Liu Dazhuang pursed his lips, and Zhou Yong stepped forward with a good temper: "Uncle Liu, since Ma Youcai and his wife have made such a request, how do you plan to deal with it?"
response?
Liu Youquan thought about Zhou Yong's words, took out a cigarette holder from his trouser pocket, rolled a leaf cigarette and put it in his mouth.
Zhou Yong reached into his pocket, wanting to light a cigarette for him, but he forgot that he didn't smoke much these days, so he didn't have the habit of carrying matches with him when he went out.
Liu Youquan lit his own cigarette, squinted his eyes and blew out a smoke ring: "You said so much, what do you want to do?"
No one is stupid. Zhou Yong must have a purpose for waiting for him at the intersection.
Zhou Yong smiled, knowing that Liu Youquan was a smart man, so he just told him the story.
Liu Youquan didn't wait for Zhou Yong to finish his words. He pouted and shook his head like a rattle to interrupt him. Li Caiyun saw everything and felt a little angry.
"Why are you like this? We haven't even finished talking yet and you're already curling your lips and shaking your head. You have no manners at all..."
