The evening sky was tinged with a light orange hue. Just as Qian Weimin was about to take a closer look at the name above, the old wooden door in front of him was opened.
"Are you Comrade Xie Gui? Here is your letter."
The village chief nodded doubtfully. He glanced at the mailing address on the letter and nodded, "Yes, it's me."
His eyes were always on the envelope, and he seemed not to have thought about why the Chang family suddenly sent him a letter.
Could it be that what happened in the village has been passed on?
The village chief saw the postman walking away and was about to close the door, but he saw a burly man with a resolute face standing next to him.
Although he was dressed in ordinary clothes, his figure and posture showed that he was from the army.
After all, there was a soldier in their Xie family, so the village chief saw it at a glance.
He looked at Qian Weimin for a while before he slowly spoke, "Comrade, who are you?"
"Hello, village chief. I am the new scorer of our village. I am here to report in!" Qian Weimin said, taking out a letter of introduction from his pocket and handing it to the village chief.
Seeing this, the village chief nodded repeatedly and invited Qian Weimin in.
Zhao Xiulan just came out of the kitchen, holding a thatched basket in her hand. Seeing someone coming, she couldn't help but ask, "Old Xie, who's here?"
The village chief glanced at Zhao Xiulan and replied, "It's the scorekeeper sent by the town."
When he said this, he handed the letter to Zhao Xiulan and said, "Xiulan, give this letter to Jianguo and let him see what's going on."
He is too busy now and Zhao Xiulan is illiterate.
It just so happens that Xie Jianguo is at home these days, so he can take a look first.
Zhao Xiulan glanced at Qian Weimin, then turned and walked towards Xie Jianguo's room.
Her son has been lying at home all day and hasn't said a word yet.
Zhao Xiulan was a little worried. If this continued, Xie Jianguo would really get sick...
However, just as the village chief and Qian Weimin were processing the scorekeeper procedures in the main room and filling out tedious forms, a sudden cry broke out like a summer thunder, breaking the quiet sky.
The village chief's face changed and the pen in his hand stopped involuntarily. He looked out the door and had a bad feeling in his heart.
He hurried to Xie Jianguo's room, and saw Zhao Xiulan sitting on the floor, slapping her thighs with her hands, her face covered with tears and snot, crying heartbreakingly.
"Oh, what's going on?" the village chief said as he walked over quickly to pull Zhao Xiulan up.
Zhao Xiulan wiped her tears and complained, "Old Xie, you have to make the decision for Jianguo! The Chang family...they want Jianguo to marry Chang Suisui and replace the originally agreed-upon Chang Meili!"
The village chief was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that this was a letter of marriage exchange.
"I don't like Chang Suisui! I dislike Chang Meili even less! I think Jianguo is so unlucky because of those two sisters! I don't want any of them to marry me! You have to cancel this marriage!"
Zhao Xiulan's voice was sharp and piercing, and the village chief's head hurt because of her crying.
The village chief frowned, his face full of helplessness.
But now there were outsiders present, so he could only squat down and try to keep his tone calm, "Xiu Lan, marriage is a big deal, we can't just rely on our personal preferences. I've met Chang Suisui a few times, and she's really a good girl, hardworking, kind, and sensible. It would be a blessing for Jianguo to marry her!"
Rather than marrying Chang Meili, he would rather have Chang Suisui as his daughter-in-law.
The village chief thought so and looked at Xie Jianguo who was sitting on the bed.
He held the exchange of confidants in his hand and seemed to have no intention of objecting.
It seems that his son is not without interest in Chang Suisui.
If that's the case, once Chang Suisui gets married, perhaps their life will become prosperous.
When Zhao Xiulan heard this, she was so angry that she could not contain herself.
She suddenly got up from the ground and shouted in dissatisfaction: "I don't agree! Those two female educated youth are jinxes! If our Jianguo marries one of them, he will definitely be harmed even more miserably!"
The village chief's face suddenly turned ugly. "What jinx?! Do you still have any control over your mouth? Do you believe that someone will accuse you of practicing feudal superstition as soon as you finish speaking? Do you want to go in and eat peanuts?!"
Zhao Xiulan was frightened by the village chief and became speechless.
She doesn't want to be caught!
Seeing that Zhao Xiulan didn't say anything, the village chief patiently said, "After all, this is Jianguo's marriage. As long as he is willing, we have to respect his choice."
No matter whether it is always the same or always beautiful.
As long as his son is determined to get married, he will respect his choice.
"He's willing? What does he want?! What does a child like him know! He's just bewitched by that vixen!" Zhao Xiulan couldn't help but shouted excitedly.
The village chief now had an even worse headache. Seeing that Zhao Xiulan was not listening, he simply gave up trying to persuade her.
"Okay, I know what's going on. I'll talk to Chang Zhiqing in person tomorrow and see what she thinks."
After all, Xie Jianguo had just openly behaved like a hooligan towards Chang Zhiqing in the fields. Now he was proposing a marriage exchange and asking her to marry Xie Jianguo, but he didn't know whether Chang Zhiqing was willing.
Xie Jianguo on the side did not say a word from beginning to end.
Chang Meili had said before that in order to get him, Chang Suisui wrote a letter to their grandmother, asking them to marry her instead.
He did believe what Chang Meili said, but this was a completely different feeling from seeing the change of confidants with his own eyes.
Xie Jianguo suddenly thought that it was quite interesting that there was a beautiful woman who would do anything to get him.
He didn't mind giving her a chance.
Qian Weimin, who was hiding in the dark, was listening quietly and eating melon on the side, but when he heard the three words "Chang Zhiqing", his expression suddenly changed slightly.
What did he hear?
Change confidant? !
What should I do?
It seems that their leader has special feelings for Chang Suisui. If the village chief were to leave like this, wouldn't their leader be in unrequited love?
No! To be exact, their leader is going to be single!
No! Absolutely not!
At night, it became completely dark.
A petite figure appeared at Xie Yu's house carrying a lot of bags.
"There's a lot of stuff this time, and I can't climb up the window."
When Chang Suisui came in with something in her arms, her beautiful pair of almond-shaped eyes were smiling, and there seemed to be stars in her eyes.
Although Xie Yu was mentally prepared, he still felt a heavy blow to his chest.
It felt stuffy, as if something was about to break through the soil and take root inside.
He slowly suppressed the emotions in his eyes and said calmly: "Why did you bring so many things?"
Chang Suisui piled things next to him and winked playfully, "Didn't I say yesterday that I would buy you something delicious?"
Most importantly, she wanted to use these things to test her ability... no, to what extent...
