"That won't do. I'm so old..."
"You just said you were only 58, not even 60."
Wei Lin interrupted her, smiling harmlessly, "You're still young. 58 is the age of striving, how can you be considered old? Besides, most people haven't retired by your age yet. You're just picking mushrooms, isn't that easy?"
"This... the clouds are so thick, it looks like a rainstorm is about to come. The fog in the mountains is so thick, it's easy to get lost..."
"So you knew that too?" Wei Lin said, "I thought you really thought it was simple and didn't take it seriously. It turns out you only took it lightly because the person wasn't you."
Xie Yichen and Wei Lin were very careful about their image when they were outside, especially in front of the camera, always remembering to remain elegant and polite, but today they really couldn't help it.
This old lady deserves a lesson!
Old Lady Xu's eyes flickered, and she was clearly feeling a little guilty. She said weakly, "She's my granddaughter, and I can treat her however I want. Why are you so anxious? Could it be that... you've taken a fancy to her?"
Old Mrs. Xu stared at the two of them closely. Seeing that they looked unnatural for a moment, it was obvious that his words had hit the nail on the head, she sneered.
"Let me tell you, she is engaged. She was betrothed to him from birth."
The two suspected that they had heard it wrong. What era is this? Are there still people arranging child marriages?
"Don't disbelieve me." Seeing the doubt in their eyes, Old Lady Xu said, "Her twentieth birthday is in two days. I'll have someone go get the marriage certificate with her then."
In the live broadcast room, Mrs. Xu was scolded for her double standards, and now netizens scolded her again when they heard the words "child marriage".
"No, this is such a time, and there's still arranged marriages? Damn old woman, go to hell!"
[How much money did that old woman get to be so impatient?]
[This is common in rural areas. Girls get married at 17 or 18, so 20 is not considered young anymore.]
[Don't smear the countryside, my hometown is in the countryside. My parents will arrange blind dates, but they won't force us to get married regardless of our wishes!]
【Let’s take a look first, just in case the girl likes it too. 】
Xie Yichen and Wei Lin subconsciously looked at Yun Yuan, and Yun Yuan nodded: "Indeed, there is a childhood sweetheart."
Wei Lin saw that her expression was as cold as ever, without the slightest hint of shyness or yearning a young girl would have when talking about her beloved. His expression darkened and he asked, "Do you like him?"
Yun Yuan frowned slightly, seeming a little embarrassed.
Xie Yichen said, "Don't be afraid. Our country's laws clearly stipulate that if a marriage is registered against one's true will, the marriage is invalid. If you don't like it, you don't have to marry."
"How can that be?" Before Yun Yuan could say anything, Old Lady Xu flew into a rage.
She was surprisingly angry: "Marriage is not a joke. Since we have arranged a child marriage, we cannot regret it. Otherwise, how can we survive in the village?"
She glared at the two of them and continued, "I thought you two young people were good people, but I didn't expect you to instigate a bitch to break off the engagement. Go away, I don't want you to come to my house for dinner anymore!"
Yun Yuan looked at Old Lady Xu's expression and had an idea in mind.
Old Mrs. Xu loves money like her life. She is selfish and stingy. She voluntarily gave up the 400 yuan profit that was about to come. She must have wanted to get a bigger profit, and this profit was almost certain to come.
Yun Yuan guessed that the Xue family had promised her something.
According to the original owner's memory, after tonight, Xue Huaiyun would take leave from school and come back, then take her to get the marriage certificate on her birthday, and make use of the two months of summer vacation to make her pregnant.
Thinking about tomorrow's live broadcast, Yun Yuan had a plan in mind.
While she was lost in thought, Old Lady Xu, regardless of the heavy rain outside, drove the two out with a broom and spat at them.
"All of you, leave now. Don't show up in front of this bitch again. If the marriage between my family and the Xue family doesn't go through, I won't forgive you."
It was raining heavily, and Xie Yichen and Wei Lin's clothes were instantly soaked. Although it was June, they still shuddered when they were suddenly drenched in the rain, and both of them looked unhappy.
"We have no ill intentions. We just hope your granddaughter can live a happy life." Wei Lin tried to comfort Old Lady Xu.
"What does happiness have to do with you? Get out of here right now." Old Mrs. Xu made a gesture to drive him away.
Wei Lin wanted to say something more, but was pulled back by the director team who had hurried over, and at the same time an umbrella appeared above his head.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Young people are hot-tempered. I'll take them away now and not disturb the old man."
In order to prevent any accidents during the live broadcast, the director watched the shot in real time. When he saw Xie and Wei protecting Yun Yuan and arguing with Old Lady Xu, he knew something was wrong.
When he rushed over, he saw the two being kicked out, and he quickly asked the cameraman to turn off the live broadcast footage.
"You two little ancestors, why are you meddling in the affairs of the villagers? Just complete the tasks assigned to you by the program team and don't get into conflict with them."
Xie Yichen frowned and tugged at his collar impatiently. He pulled the collar hard, revealing a large area of fair skin.
He turned around and looked in Yun Yuan's direction, saying, "I just can't help but be angry. This damn old woman is so shameless. Not only is she hypocritical, she even arranged a marriage."
"That's right." Wei Lin on the side echoed: "She doesn't want us to go find that bitch, so I'm going to go anyway, to piss her off to death!"
"Come on, my two little ancestors." The director shook his head helplessly and advised, "Don't worry about it anymore. There are many other families in Baiwu Village to choose from. And Lin Weiwei said before that besides this one, the others are all quite good."
When the program team was selecting the village, they considered this village after listening to Lin Weiwei's advice. Later, during the inspection, they found that the natural scenery of Baiwu Village was indeed good, so they decided on it.
"I almost forgot she's from this village." Xie Yichen wiped the moisture off his face and said, "Let's go ask her."
…………
Lin Weiwei brought Qin Xu out of her home after dinner and walked on the country path. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, and the live broadcast room was full of joy.
[Aside from the harsh environment, the scenery is indeed beautiful. ]
I never thought Weiwei was born into such an ordinary family, and now she has made a comeback. It's really inspiring.
Weiwei's parents were honest country folk, warm and hospitable, and took great care of Qin Yingdi. Qin Yingdi immediately had a good impression of them.
Does this count as meeting the parents?
[With Weiwei's looks, she can be considered the village beauty, right?]
[Of course, Weiwei is the prettiest, and Rose will always support you!]
In the rice fields beside the country road, the yellowish rice ears are bent, as if showing people the joy of their impending maturity.
Lin Weiwei stood shyly beside Qin Xu, her hands unconsciously fiddling with the corners of her clothes.
