This house had not been lived in for a long time, and even though she had secretly cleaned it a few times, it was quickly covered with dust.
If no one lives in a house, it will lose its vitality.
There were a lot of weeds growing in the yard. She carefully pulled them out and swept away the garbage. When it was dark, she finally finished everything. She fried a cucumber and cooked the food she brought from Li Jiashun.
She had been preparing for today for quite some time.
For several days, the village party secretary went to the Li family once a day, urging Li Dajun and Lin Xiuer to get married quickly. Not only did he go himself, he also sent female comrades to persuade them.
If you don't get married, you go to jail.
The three people in the Li family who originally had similar interests were now sitting together, but the atmosphere was very bad.
"Da Jun, you are a man. My daughter Xiu'er is a pure and innocent girl, and you are so irresponsible?"
The person who spoke was Lin Xiuer's father, who looked like a smart man.
After hearing this, Mrs. Li refused to do it. No one could say anything about her son.
"Don't talk about the army, I tell you, if Xiu'er doesn't want to, can our army force her to come?
Everyone was watching that day, and they couldn't even pull your daughter down!"
Old Lady Li was willing to let Lin Xiuer marry into the family, but she didn't want to be blackmailed.
"What are you talking about? My daughter insisted on sticking to your Li Dajun?
"Old lady Li, what did you tell me before? You said that as long as my daughter Xiu'er came into the family, you would give her a betrothal gift of 300 yuan, and if she gave birth to a boy, you would buy her a bicycle!"
Li Dajun was stunned. How come I didn’t know about this?
"Mom, why didn't you tell me about this?"
Li Dajun asked, "Three hundred yuan!" He didn't spend a penny on betrothal gifts when he married Chen Miaoyi, and even asked her to give him all her family savings.
Three hundred yuan is enough to marry the God of Wealth! Why does Lin Xiuer have such a bad temper and is full of evil intentions?
"Da Jun, don't worry, Mom knows what's going on."
Old Mrs. Li said, let her lead the charge, and her son just needs to wait patiently for her to find him a beautiful bride.
It’s better to go home with a cheap beautiful bride.
Mrs. Li looked very anxious and said, "No one can explain this matter clearly. The three hundred yuan betrothal gift I mentioned means that I can marry her into the family in a legitimate way.
Now you're the village party secretary, and the whole village has witnessed your daughter's scandal. You have no choice but to get married. How can this be as we agreed?"
Old Lady Li asked back, wondering who had discovered it. She really had to thank the other party. If the village party secretary had not brought people to catch it, she would not have been able to save the betrothal gift.
Lin Xiuer's parents were not honest people either, and they didn't believe her words at all.
"We don't care. If you don't give us the betrothal gift, we'll sue your Li Dajun for rape!"
"What do you mean by rape? Everyone saw it. It was consensual and the two of them were together. Maybe your Xiu'er is already pregnant with Dajun's baby.
Who will want her in the future? If something happens to our army, I’m afraid she will never be able to get married again, right?
Old Lady Li was worried that they would sue her, but she couldn't show that she was panicking. She had to threaten Lin Xiu'er's family in return.
"It's just a baby. If my Xiu'er got pregnant, your Dajun would be in jail and shot.
This baby is the root of the Li family, the only bloodline of the Li family. By then, it will not be just a matter of three hundred yuan.
No matter how much money you give us, we will not keep this child and will make your Li family extinct!
When the time comes to move, let Xiuer find another one!"
Lin Xiuer's mother said presumptuously, it was a tit-for-tat situation, neither of them would give in.
The combined cunning of these people was more than the lice on a dog, and they were suddenly stuck in a stalemate.
"Brother Dajun, say something!"
Lin Xiuer had tears in her eyes. Her parents blamed her for being useless. Aunt Li also disliked her, and brother Da Jun, with whom she had physical contact, now didn't even say a word.
Li Dajun's eyes bulged, "Well, Xiu'er and I are husband and wife, and the whole team saw it.
The village party secretary has already said that we must get married in the next few days, otherwise we will be charged with adultery for having promiscuous relations, and neither Xiu'er nor I will be able to escape.
Now we can only get married, but I don’t know anything about the betrothal gift, and I can’t afford that much.”
Li Dajun confessed that the person had already fallen asleep and he felt regretful now.
"Brother Dajun, what should I do? I already..."
Lin Xiuer couldn't believe it. Why would Brother Da Jun say such irresponsible words?
He was so nice, gentle and likable before.
"Xiu'er, I really can't afford such a large amount of betrothal gifts. You know our family situation.
If you don’t want to…”
If you don't want me to marry you, right?
Li Dajun already felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have acted impulsively. Now that he had control over his body, he could drive Lin Xiu'er away and be nicer to Chen Miaoyi in the future.
But he didn't know that one day he would get it back!
Man proposes, God disposes. Old Mrs. Li felt a little uncomfortable. What did Lin Xiuer mean now? Was she threatening her son?
"Xiu'er, you can't say that. Your feelings for our army are too obvious. Our ex-daughter-in-law divorced because of you.
Now you can't blame everything on Da Jun. If you have a conscience, you should persuade your parents to ask for less betrothal gifts!
When your belly gets bigger, you'll be in a hurry!"
Old Lady Li is a two-faced person. She is very attentive to you before you get what you want, but turns a blind eye after you get what you want.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, two or three women rushed into the Li family yard.
"Da Jun, Da Jun's mother, we are coming!"
These people were the comrades working on women's affairs in the village, and they came specifically because of the scandal between Li Dajun and Lin Xiuer.
"Oh, these are Xiu'er's parents, right?"
Lin Xiuer's parents didn't know who this person was. Could it be Li Dajun's aunts or uncles?
He could only nod cautiously, and the women immediately smiled happily.
"That's good, that's good. You two families are sitting together to discuss the marriage of Li Dajun and Lin Xiu'er, right?"
Lin Xiuer's mother looked at them and asked, "They must be Li Dajun's relatives."
I didn't expect that there would be three of them at once. Are they trying to block them at the Li family and not let them leave?
"I don't care who you are to Li Dajun.
Anyway, without 300 yuan in betrothal gifts, the marriage will not happen!
Even if our Xiu'er had a child, she would have had an abortion. I will sue you, Li Dajun, for rape! Let him go to jail! For life!
Old Lady Li was stunned. How could she make amends?
Several women were also stunned. What rape? What jail time?
"You, aren't they in a free love relationship? It's something that happened because they couldn't help themselves, right?"
Lin Xiuer's mother was furious when she heard this. "What free love?! This is hooliganism!"
