Chapter 7 I Want to Marry You
The children of the Jin family were forced to be sent to the countryside to do hard labor.
Later, they were treated unfairly in various ways.
Now that I have a new life, if I can get close to the Xiao family, it will be easier for me to do things.
"I really want to marry you."
He narrowed his eyes, his gaze was complicated, and his lips were slightly parted, as if he had a thousand words to say.
However, after a fierce inner struggle, he finally chose to remain silent.
After a while, he slowly looked away.
"Forget it, think about it first."
"Here's a hundred dollars."
Xiao Zhiyu took out a neatly folded banknote from his pocket and handed it to Ruan Chuxia.
"It's not too late yet. You can take this money and go to the city with Chen Rong to buy some clothes."
Ruan Chuxia looked at the money Xiao Zhiyu handed over, and her eyes immediately widened, almost popping out.
OMG!
Although it has long been known that the Xiao family is very powerful and wealthy in the local area.
But she never expected that the man in front of her would take out a hundred-dollar bill so easily and casually.
For her, this was like pie in the sky.
Faced with such a generous and heroic Xiao Zhiyu, Ruan Chuxia was no longer shy or polite.
Instead, she took the money with a sweet smile.
She said delicately, "Thank you, Captain Xiao!"
Xiao Zhiyu coughed and quickly turned away to avoid eye contact with Ruan Chuxia.
"Go quickly."
After hearing this, Ruan Chuxia blinked mischievously and saw the blush on the man's ear.
Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth and covered her mouth with her hands and laughed secretly.
Ruan Chuxia never imagined that Xiao Lichang, who usually makes people afraid to approach him, is so cute in private!
After carefully putting away the "huge sum of money", Ruan Chuxia and Chen Rong got on the bus into the city.
It was already afternoon when they arrived in the county town.
She was wearing black clothes that had long been faded and covered with patches.
Standing on the bustling street, I seem out of place with the surrounding environment.
Ruan Chuxia curled her lips and went to the department store with the money she had just received to buy herself a new set of clothes.
She walked around the store and finally chose a simple white dress.
Pair it with a pair of currently trending sandals.
Back in the dressing room, she carefully tied her soft black hair up high and secured it with the hairband she had just bought.
After standing in front of the mirror and looking carefully for a while, Ruan Chuxia saw what she looked like now.
The originally childish face now has a bit more charm.
She nodded with satisfaction.
When he got back into the green jeep, Chen Rong obviously didn't recognize her.
"Comrade Ruan... Comrade Ruan?!"
Ruan Chuxia didn't say much, but said lightly: "Go back to the family compound."
At this moment, the sun's rays are still shining.
When I get back, I can cook a dish for Mr. Xiao that will help him recover!
Seeing the face in the rearview mirror, Chen Rong couldn't help swallowing.
As one of the drivers who had been following him for a long time, he couldn't help but feel a little envious.
This is exactly the woman the village head has been dreaming of marrying...
Not only is she beautiful, but she also has a great figure!
As the engine started, the car quickly entered the military compound.
As soon as she got off the car, Ruan Chuxia went straight to the kitchen at home and opened the green refrigerator she had just bought.
I took out the previously frozen chicken and placed it in a basin of water, waiting for it to thaw slowly.
Then, there was the sound of chopping on the cutting board...
Just as Ruan Chuxia was looking at the food in the pot, there was suddenly a burst of noise outside the door.
"I told you not to come, but you insisted! What's so good about this?! It's really giving me a headache!"
A woman said loudly in dissatisfaction.
"Zhiwei." A soft female voice sounded outside the door.
"Since Zhiyu's wife is here, I naturally want to come and see her. After all, we grew up together and are childhood sweethearts. We have a special relationship."
"We'll see each other sooner or later, so we should at least get to know each other. We're all neighbors, and if we get along for a long time, it's inevitable that we'll meet."
Another neighbor continued, with a tone of persuasion.
"Yes, Lijuan is right. Even if Captain Xiao's wife is shameful, we still have to let everyone see her! This is not just for fun, but out of concern for Captain Xiao's choice."
Someone echoed, with a hint of sarcasm in their tone.
"Indeed, no matter what, we will have to live together in the future, and we will have to meet sooner or later. It's better to get to know each other sooner. Besides, Lijuan is highly educated and has a broad vision. It would be great if she could help Zhiyu with the screening."
The people next to him nodded in agreement.
The neighbors outside the door were talking at once, just like the gossipy old ladies in the village.
They were not optimistic about the newcomer Ruan Chuxia, and even looked down on her, thinking that she was not worthy of the noble status of the Xiao family, let alone a match for Xiao Zhiyu!
"She's just a country girl from the countryside. What's so good about her? Haven't you seen country people before? Why make such a fuss?"
Xiao Zhiwei frowned, obviously understanding the neighbors' true intentions.
I want to take this opportunity to see the jokes in their family.
The image of Ruan Chuxia with a rustic face emerged in her mind, and she couldn't help but reveal an expression of disgust.
However, Wang Lijuan remained calm, her eyes turning slightly as she listened to the harsh laughter of the neighbors around her.
"Zhiwei, what's wrong with a daughter-in-law from the countryside? We are not people who have never seen the world."
She didn't even wait for Xiao Zhiwei to speak, but walked up to him, turned the doorknob a few times, and pushed the door open without knocking!
A hint of surprise flashed across Wang Lijuan's face, but then her smile became even brighter.
"Hey, isn't Comrade Ruan at home? Come and see what our Big Brother Xiao's future wife looks like!"
Wang Lijuan's voice is loud.
The entrance was crowded with military wives. After hearing what Wang Lijuan said, they all stretched their necks to look inside, clamoring to see the new daughter-in-law.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhiwei couldn't stop it. He gritted his teeth in anger, stomped his feet hard, and questioned angrily.
"Ruan Chuxia, come out!"
Ruan Chuxia walked out of the kitchen lazily, looking at the group of uninvited guests standing outside the door, with a sarcastic smile on her lips.
"Big sister."
Ruan Chuxia carried a set of tea sets and walked towards the door calmly and gracefully.
She had a faint smile on her lips, squinted her eyes and looked at Wang Lijuan who was looking astonished, and spoke in a cold tone.
"Excuse me, what exactly are you planning on doing by bringing a group of people into someone else's house?"
Seeing Ruan Chuxia's tough attitude, Wang Lijuan felt a little uneasy.
She originally thought that the other party would be a weak country girl, but she didn't expect her to be a tough one.
Wang Lijuan tried her best to make her expression look more aggrieved.
"Comrade Ruan, you're being so unfair. I don't have any other thoughts. I just want to get to know you."
She tried hard to maintain this aggrieved look.
