Chapter 48 Chapter 48 Marriage Proposal
Sun Dachang has been blocking Zhang Tianzheng these days. He is holding a thick stack of cash and refuses to leave Zhang Tianzheng's office.
Zhang Tianzheng tried to avoid Sun Dachang at first, but Sun Dachang refused to leave. He couldn't just stop working just to avoid Sun Dachang, right?
Zhang Tianzheng decided to have a fight with Sun Dachang. As soon as he entered the office, Sun Dachang threw several stacks of Great Unity on his desk. "Director Zhang, please take care of me. I only have one daughter, Ruxue. She is my life. I can't watch my life go to jail."
During these past few days, Sun Dachang looked several years older. His face was sallow and his beard was untidy. The clothes he used to change every day were now dripping with grease. Where was the arrogant nouveau riche?
He came to Zhang Tianzheng with money in his hands to do business. Zhang Tianzheng was also shocked when he saw the stacks of Great Unity notes.
It is said that nouveau riche have to spend money to hire people to do things for them, and today he has witnessed it.
Zhang Tian was weighing this in his mind. If he encountered some comrades with weak wills, wouldn’t it be a matter of minutes for them to be corrupted when they saw so many red bills?
Among the entire cadre group in Shu County, how many officials are as honest and upright as him who only care about making political achievements?
Zhang Tianzheng's face turned black with anger. He slammed the table and said, "Take the money back!"
Zhang Tianzheng was very angry and Sun Dachang was completely stunned. Ever since he became a nouveau riche, he has been able to use money to smooth over relationships. How come he met a fool who didn't want money today?
He dared to guarantee that the money he gave Zhang Tianzheng today was not as much as Zhang Tianzheng's salary for three years. What else could Zhang Tianzheng be dissatisfied with?
Sun Dachang scratched his head and suddenly realized, "Too little?"
"It doesn't matter, as long as you help me get it done, I'll give you double the money!"
Sun Dachang was so eager to spend money that Zhang Tianzheng's eyelids twitched. He refused righteously, "I advise you to put your money away quickly. Five years ago, your family was very poor and had no food to eat. After the reform and opening up, a coal mine was mined on your hill. You were the first to get rich. The government only asked you to pay taxes based on the land measurement. It did not ask you to pay extra taxes or hand over the coal mine to your hill. We are in a new society and we don't tolerate robbery. But Sun Dachang, you have to stick to your duty."
Sun Dachang was not convinced, "I have always been very dutiful!"
Zhang Tianzheng laughed angrily, "You are doing your duty?"
Sun Dachang nodded, "Yeah."
"You take the money and give bribes everywhere, and you call that doing your duty?"
"My daughter was wronged, so I spent some money to help her settle the matter. The bribe was also my own money. I didn't steal or rob, so how could I not do my duty?"
"Sun Ruxue slandered and defamed her classmates without reason. The evidence is irrefutable, so she must be punished by law. You bribed the officials with money to help Sun Ruxue escape legal punishment, which is obstructing justice. You think Sun Ruxue was wronged by being detained for two weeks, but what about Shu Niannian who was slandered and defamed by Sun Ruxue? Did she feel wronged?!"
Sun Dachang, protect your money and do your duty. Otherwise, when you end up in jail one day, you will deeply regret your behavior today. ”
"This is the first time and the last time. I will only say this once. If I didn't see your money, just pretend you never came to my office."
Seeing that Zhang Tianzheng was serious, Sun Dachang quietly put the Great Unity back into his pocket.
But he was not reconciled. After coming out of Zhang Tianzheng's office, Sun Dachang thought again, since the police station's approach didn't work, he would use his own method. He would find trouble with Shu Niannian and force Shu Niannian to go to the police station to withdraw the lawsuit. This should work, right?
Sun Dachang stood at the door of the police station, stroking his green stubble with his big hands, looking at the plaque on the door of the police station, and thinking that he was really smart.
******
On the weekend, Shu Niannian got up early because she was getting engaged today, but she didn't tell anyone except her family. Before dawn, Li Guifen got up to sweep the yard, and soon, Shu Chengzu also came.
Shu Niannian was still wearing monkey cotton today. Except for a red rope tied at the end of her pigtail, her outfit was no different from usual.
The lotus emerges from clear water, naturally without any decoration, but she is more beautiful than the lotus in clear water. She has a bright smile, a slim waist and long legs. Just standing there, she is a painting.
Li Guifen looked at Shu Niannian, and there was no moment more clearly than now that made her realize that her precious daughter had grown up.
Since childhood, Shu Niannian has been a cute little girl with round eyes. When she smiles, she forms two crescent shapes, which makes her extremely adorable. Li Guifen gave birth to two boys before and then had Shu Niannian. She cherished her so much that she held her in her hands for fear of dropping her and held her in her mouth for fear of melting her.
Other families favor boys over girls, but Li Guifen is not like that. She tries her best to be impartial, and even if she is biased, she will favor Shu Niannian.
Li Guifen was just sighing when the door was slammed "bang bang bang".
Yes, you read it right, it’s not knocking, it’s smashing!
The force was so great that it almost made a hole in the wooden door.
"Open the door!"
"Open the door quickly!"
Li Guifen and Shu Guodong looked at each other, what was going on?
Their whole family was waiting for the new son-in-law to come and propose marriage, but why didn't the son-in-law come, but instead a bully who came from nowhere came?
Shu Chengzu stood in the yard with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Don't panic, go open the door. It's a blessing, not a disaster. If it's a disaster, we can't avoid it. People have come to our door, we can't just hide like turtles!"
Shu Wenqiang was extremely angry. Today was Nian Nian's engagement day, who was so blind to come and cause trouble?
If he doesn't let them go back with bruised and battered faces today, he won't be called Shu Wenqiang!
Shu Wenqiang took out a sickle from the wall. As soon as he opened the door, he started swinging the sickle without thinking, forcing the people at the door to retreat several steps.
After standing still, Shu Wenqiang realized that the dozen or so young men at the door were all unfamiliar faces, and each of them looked ferocious and did not look like a good person.
Shu Wenqiang was not afraid at all. He carried the sickle on his shoulder and asked sternly, "Who are you? Why are you smashing my door with such force so early in the morning?"
The scarred man in the lead crossed his arms and said, "It was just a few hits on the door, it didn't break anything, why are you so angry?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door creaked a few times, then fell to the ground with a bang, and the door panel broke into pieces.
Shu Wenqiang pointed at the door, opened his eyelids and said, "Look, it's broken, you broke it, you have to pay for this door panel!"
The scarred man stared at the door panel on the ground in disbelief, thinking that the door panel was so damn broken that it seemed like it was slapping him in the face.
But he was a professional troublemaker, and paying compensation had never appeared in his dictionary. Now he was suddenly asked to pay compensation, and the scarred man was a little confused. He turned to ask the boss, "What should I do?!"
Sun Dachang stepped out from the crowd and shouted, "What compensation do you want? It's your house that was smashed! Compensation?! Dream on!"
Shu Niannian was originally wondering, who had their family offended this time?
Why did you bring the bully to break down the door?
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Sun Dachang!
Shu Niannian came to the gate and argued with Sun Dachang, "We live in a society ruled by law. Why do you come to smash my door for no reason?"
Sun Dachang's hands, wearing a big gold ring, were shaking with anger. "For no reason? You've almost sent my daughter, Sun Ruxue, to the police station, and you're still telling me it's for no reason? I'm just knocking down your door today as an appetizer. Let's talk now. If we can come to an agreement, we'll leave. If not, I'll tear down your entire yard!"
Shu Niannian looked at Sun Dachang's arrogant look, then looked at the young men behind him, knowing that she couldn't confront them head-on today, so she said softly, "Okay, tell me first, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Shu Niannian was standing alone at the gate, calmly negotiating terms with Sun Dachang. This calmness made Sun Dachang furious. She was just a country girl, and when she saw him bringing people to cause trouble, she didn't get scared and cry and hide in the house?
Sun Dachang gritted his teeth and said, "I think you know what I want to talk to you about. I'll give you two choices. First, you withdraw the lawsuit so that Sun Ruxue can go to school safely. Second, you don't have to withdraw the lawsuit, but from now on, your family will never live in peace. The brothers behind me will come to take care of your yard and your family from time to time. I advise you to choose the first option. Even if my girl was wrong first, she has already apologized to you in public at No. 1 Middle School. You two are even. If you still insist on not giving in, I promise that the days ahead will be unforgettable for you."
Shu Niannian didn't say she would choose the first option, nor did she say she would choose the second option. She smiled and said, "Let me think about it and I'll give you the answer tomorrow. Do you think that's okay?"
Sun Dachang sneered, "No, do you think I'm a fool? I give you time to file a complaint and ask for help? Right now! You have to make a choice now."
Sun Dachang was very arrogant, with a dozen ferocious young men standing behind him. Shu Niannian stood alone at the gate, slender and weak, in a weak position, but she stood straight, like a young poplar growing towards the sun, full of vitality. She had shed the gentleness of a girl, and instead exuded a sharpness that was just beginning to show.
Of course, the nouveau riche Sun Dachang couldn’t see so many things. He just felt that Shu Niannian suddenly seemed like a different person. As for how and what she had become, he couldn’t describe it at all.
He only knew that Shu Niannian made him hate her even more now.
Even though they were blocked at the door by him, it was still so slippery that it was impossible to control them at all.
Oh shit!
He can’t control Zhang Tianzheng, the police chief, so how can he not control a little girl? ! Where would he put his face as the richest man in Shu County?
Thinking of this, Sun Dachang immediately became angry. He didn't want to waste time talking to Shu Niannian at all.
Give her a choice?
Choose a shit!
He should just come up and smash everything in the yard. He wanted Shu Niannian to kneel on the ground crying and beg him to let her go. She wanted Shu Niannian to ask him to withdraw the lawsuit!
right! That’s it!
Sun Dachang gritted his teeth and waved his hands, "Come on, smash it! If it breaks, it's my fault!"
Shu Niannian didn't expect Sun Dachang to change so quickly. She originally wanted to delay time, but now it seems that she can't delay any longer!
"My boyfriend is the head of the Second Army of Haicheng. You are bullying me like this. Aren't you afraid that my boyfriend will come and skin you alive?!"
Sun Dachang snorted coldly, "Who cares? I'll smash it first, and wait until your partner finds out. Today's matter has already come to a successful conclusion. He's a public official, and I don't believe that he can do such a thing as settling scores with you without any evidence."
"Brothers! Listen to me. After we finish smashing the place today, you all go your separate ways and hide somewhere where no one can find you. Don't show up in Shu County within six months!"
"Okay!"
Sun Dachang shouted, and the bullies behind him responded in unison, then moved closer to Shu Niannian step by step.
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of hand, Shu Wenhui and Shu Wenqiang quickly pulled Shu Niannian back. One of the doors had been smashed, and the other door could no longer provide any defense. Shu Wenhui and Shu Wenqiang, one holding a hoe and the other holding a sickle, held them across their chests, intending to fight this group of bad guys head-on.
Sun Dachang stepped aside and watched coldly as the bullies he brought moved forward step by step, destroying the other party's psychological defenses step by step. He watched all this with pride, and in his mind he could already imagine the scene of the countryman kneeling on the ground crying and begging for mercy.
He closed his eyes and leaned against the wall, unable to bear to watch such a bloody scene.
There was a "bang bang bang" sound in his ears. Sun Dachang was familiar with this sound. It was the muffled sound of a hard fist hitting a person.
There were also various wailing sounds, as well as the sound of people being thrown over the shoulders like sandbags, and their bodies hitting the ground with a "thump".
Oh, it's quite rhythmic, one "plop" sound after another, and the timing is very accurate, one every three seconds.
He counted with his eyes closed, planning to open them again in a minute.
Ye Jinhong smashed the gangsters with his iron fist. They immediately grimaced in pain, covering their painful spots and almost making no sound. His technique was precise and he hit people's painful spots one by one. In less than a minute, he knocked down more than a dozen gangsters who seemed to be arrogant but were actually just show-offs to the ground.
He stood on the ground and stretched his wrists before walking up to Sun Dachang. Sun Dachang happily counted to sixty and just opened his eyes when a fist that was gradually getting bigger in front of him hit him mercilessly.
"Ouch!" Sun Dachang covered his eyes and lay on the ground, unable to speak for a long time due to the pain.
"You are crazy! Why are you hitting me? Go hit Shu Niannian's family!" Sun Dachang covered his eyes, gasping for breath and shouting.
Apart from the sounds of "ouch" and "ouch" from all around, no one came to answer Sun Dachang's words.
Ye Jinhong came in front of Sun Dachang, kicked him, and said, "Open your dog eyes and see who you are talking to?"
Sun Dachang realized something was wrong when he heard the low, mellow and cold voice. He tried to open his eyes a little. Who did he see?
He actually saw Shu Niannian's boyfriend standing in front of him, looking down at him!
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Sun Dachang stepped back in fear!
"What the hell, why are you here?!" Sun Dachang was so scared when he saw that the truth had been revealed that he almost peed his pants. He was shaking like a sieve, looking like a despicable quail.
"This is my boyfriend's home. I can come whenever I want. But why are you bringing so many people to my boyfriend's home so early in the morning?" Ye Jinhong glanced at the door panels scattered on the ground. "Break the door?"
"I dare not! I dare not!" Sun Dachang lay on the ground and did not dare to get up.
Shu Niannian walked a few steps to Ye Jinhong and told him everything that had just happened. After listening to it, Ye Jinhong was so angry that he wanted to kick Sun Dachang to death, but he restrained himself in the end.
"Two days ago, I wanted to throw you into jail, but Zhang Tianzheng pleaded for you. I thought your daughter was spoiled, so I just gave her a lesson. Who knew you were even worse? While I was away, you brought people to smash my girlfriend's house? Who gave you the guts, huh?!"
Ye Jinhong held Shu Niannian's hand, feeling a wave of fear. He stopped the car at the entrance of the village and went to explore the way first. He thought about telling Nian Nian in advance how many people were coming this time, so that Shu Niannian would not be in a hurry.
Who knew that just as he reached the entrance of the alley, he heard Sun Dachang shouting and killing Shu Niannian. At that moment, he was so scared that his heart stopped beating. It was hard to imagine how Shu Niannian would be bullied if he had arrived a step later? !
Sun Dachang lay on the ground, almost fainting from fear. If he had known that Ye Jinhong's beating would hurt so much? He would never provoke Shu Niannian!
However, there is no medicine for regret in this world!
Sun Dachang touched Ye Jinhong's reverse scale, and his good days in this life were over.
Three or two jeeps turned into the alley one after another. Ye Jinhong said loudly, "Sun Dachang illegally gathered a crowd to cause trouble. Take all the people on the ground to the police station. Ask the police chief Zhang Tianzheng to come to Shujia Village to see me. I have something to say to him."
When the thugs who were lying on the ground screaming "yoyo" heard that they were going to be taken to the police station, they no longer cared about the pain and tried to struggle to get up and run away. However, as soon as they stood up, they were knocked down again by Ye Jinhong's soldiers, and then carried into the car like chickens.
Sun Dachang was dumbfounded. He knew that Ye Jinhong was an official in Haicheng and had some friendship with Zhang Tianzheng, but he didn't know that Ye Jinhong was so powerful. He was caught red-handed by Ye Jinhong this time. If he was sent to the police station, would he have a good ending?
If we settle all the old and new accounts together, can he still get out?
He sat on the ground in a daze, watching the people he brought with him being carried into the jeep one by one. Then he burst into tears as if he had just woken up from a dream, and rolled and crawled to grab Ye Jinhong's legs.
"Please let me go! I'm sorry! I was wrong! Ah! I was wrong!"
Ye Jinhong looked at Sun Dachang with disdain and kicked away his outstretched hand, "Guard! You are so slow!"
The guard who was called did not dare to delay and quickly stepped forward and carried Sun Dachang into the jeep.
When Grandpa Ye came to his future granddaughter-in-law's house for the first time, he unexpectedly encountered a rural bully who bullied his future granddaughter-in-law's family. This made Grandpa Ye very angry, and he immediately sent his guards to go to the Shu County Police Station to coordinate the handling of the matter.
"Severe punishment! They must be severely punished! Some of the people who got rich first not only failed to play any role, but became pests of society. They are bullying my future granddaughter-in-law. We have run into them and can send them to the police station. What if these bullies who forget their roots because of their advantages bully other kind people? What should they do? Can they just wait to be bullied?!"
Before Mr. Ye retired, he was of a prominent status. It is no exaggeration to say that when the commander of the Second Army saw him, he could only serve tea and water. Now that Mr. Ye spoke, Li Tingshun, who came over to see what Ye Jinhong's girlfriend looked like, immediately stood at attention and saluted respectfully, "Yes!"
"Please rest assured, leader! We will punish you severely!"
Ye Jinhong had been holding Shu Niannian's hand. Shu Niannian didn't notice anything during the chaos just now, but now that the crisis was over, everyone's eyes were suddenly focused on her and Ye Jinhong. Shu Niannian followed their gaze and looked at her and Ye Jinhong's hands which were tightly clasped together.
Her small face, which was the size of a palm, turned red instantly.
She wanted to free her hands, but Ye Jinhong's hands were like an unbreakable net that didn't allow her to break free at all.
When Grandpa Ye and Grandma Ye saw them like this, they couldn't stop smiling. Grandma Ye complained to Grandpa Ye in a low voice, "Oh, really, if I keep smiling like this, I'm sure I'll have a few more wrinkles on my face."
Old Master Ye whispered back, "Hey, just be happy. Isn't it good for them to be like this? The better their relationship is, the sooner we can have great-grandchildren. Think about it, if we have two in three years, maybe we can have three or four in three years."
Grandma Ye was stunned. "Why are there so many?"
Mr. Ye smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed. "Oh, what if they give birth to twins?"
Grandma Ye covered her mouth with her hands and laughed happily, "Oh! Yes, yes, yes! You are right, old man!"
Although Grandpa Ye and Grandma Ye spoke in low voices, Lin Xuanyin was walking beside them and was very close to them. Lin Xuanyin heard their conversation clearly. When she heard about the twins, her eyes immediately lit up!
right!
Why didn't she think of it! ?
There's a chance of having twins!
Lin Xuanyin went to see Shu Niannian again with good wishes. She felt that Shu Niannian was good in every way. Shu Niannian was pretty, which meant that the baby in the future would definitely be good-looking; Shu Niannian had round eyes and clear pupils, so the baby in the future would definitely have big eyes with clear black and white; Shu Niannian had fair skin, so the baby in the future would definitely be a pink and tender little kid!
Oh, I can’t think about it. The more I think about it, the happier I become!
I want Ye Jinhong and Shu Niannian to get married immediately!
Lin Xuanyin looked at Shu Niannian's slender limbs again and frowned slightly. "Oh, this won't do. She's still too thin. She needs to eat some more weight."
Li Guifen was dressed simply, but she had a cheerful personality and was warm and hospitable. After just a few words, Lin Xuanyin fell in love with this future mother-in-law. The two of them entered the yard, and they almost held each other's hands and never separated.
Ye Jinhong came to propose marriage, and there were three or four jeeps, one for Grandpa and Grandma Ye, one for himself and Lin Xuanyin, and the other one didn't have to come, but when Li Tingshun heard that he was coming to get engaged, he insisted on coming along, saying that he wanted to see what kind of girl could make the thousand-year-old iron tree bloom.
