The village chief snorted coldly, then looked at Old Lady Xia: "Old sister-in-law, what's going on? This is the first time in your family, there's trouble every day."
Old Mrs. Xia briefly explained what had happened.
Of course, her words were full of complaints about her daughter being wronged. That damn girl Xia Luo should give up the marriage, otherwise she would be ungrateful.
"I've already agreed to supplement her dowry, what else does she want? She keeps crying."
The village chief frowned. He knew very well how biased Old Lady Xia was, and he had to listen to her words in the opposite way.
He looked at Xia Luo. Xia Luo pursed her lips, her eyes red. "Village chief, I know I'm the elder sister and should give in to my younger sister, but, I, what should I do? Girls in our village are all engaged at a very early age. I'm already nineteen years old. Do you want me to marry a widower? I'd rather die than not!"
As she said that, she stood up and ran straight into the doorpost!
The crowd suddenly cried out in surprise and reached out to stop him.
Bang!
Xia Luo bumped into a man's arms.
Ji Changye stopped Xia Luo, his face full of disapproval: "Is there anything you can't talk about nicely? How can you just give up your life so easily?"
Xia Luo stared blankly at Qing Ji Changye's handsome face, tears streaming down her cheeks. "But am I going to marry a widower? Raise someone else's child? Be beaten and scolded? Give birth to a child and suffer with me?"
She thought of the tragic experiences in her previous life and felt so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.
"Instead of this, I'd rather die!"
"nonsense!"
Ji Changye helped her up and looked at Xia Luo's parents: "Uncle and aunt, are you just going to watch your daughter being treated like this?"
The second son of the Xia family blushed and stammered in front of everyone, unable to say a word for a long time.
They had long been suppressed by Old Lady Xia's dominance and had forgotten to straighten their backs.
Ji Changye shook his head and helped Xia Luo sit down on the chair. The next moment, he turned his gaze to Xihe: "I heard that you went to high school?"
Xihe narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly: "Yes."
Ji Changye looked her up and down, his words very rude: "Is this what your high school teacher taught you? Bullying your weak sister, and then having to marry her if someone saves you? Are you living in the feudal era?"
Ji's mother was startled and shouted hurriedly: "Changye, shut up!"
Hey, this brat, what nonsense are you talking about.
Xihe wasn't angry. She pointed her finger and said, "First, how the teacher teaches is my business, and has nothing to do with you. Second, you said I bullied Xia Luo? You mean I have a grandmother who loves me, doesn't she? I'm so sorry. Who made me so lucky?"
Ji Changye's face darkened.
Xihe pointed to the window frame where the Xia family's children were watching the fun and smiled, "They are lucky too, to have a father and a mother who love them so much."
She spread her hands and said, "Everyone in our family seems to be quite lucky except Xia Luo."
Everyone looked over and saw a few kids with round eyes, wearing shorts and bare feet. Although they were not dressed well, all the kids in the village dressed the same way.
Gouzi dropped the melon in his hand: "What are you doing? Why are you arguing with the male lead?"
We agreed not to offend anyone if we can.
Xihe shrugged: "Then I can't let him continue to scold me. No matter whether he is right or wrong, I have to gain the upper hand."
She got a script about a bad girl, so she was destined to take on a bad role. However, her goal was to become a good person and change her image as a bad girl. So, no matter how unreasonable she was or how she confuses right and wrong, she had to maintain her reputation.
Besides, she was not wrong!
In the Xia family, Xia Luo is not loved by her father or mother.
Gouzi:...Although this is true, when this woman said it, it sounded as if it was Xia Luo's fault.
Xihe smiled slightly, looking like she really needed a beating. "Of course I don't ask others to marry me if they save me, but if your brother is understanding and compassionate, and can't bear to see me spend my whole life as an old maid, and is willing to marry me, I won't refuse."
"you!"
Ji Changye had never seen such an arrogant person.
Xihe glanced at them and said with a smile, "Actually, there is a perfect solution to today's problem."
Xia Luo narrowed her eyes slightly. She felt that there was something wrong with Xia He in front of her, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. She was so arrogant and domineering, and her words were so infuriating.
Ji Changye lost his patience: "What's the plan?"
Xihe nodded at the two people who were very close to him, and smiled meaningfully: "I can see that you have a great impression of Xia Luo, so why don't you marry her? That way, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"
Xia Luo suddenly looked up, her eyes full of disbelief. Xia He, what is she talking about?
Xihe smiled at her: "Sister, what do you think of my proposal?"
Xia Luo: “…”
She stared at Xihe closely, digging her fingernails into her palms. She wanted to rush up and tear off that smug face, but she couldn't, because Xihe said what was in her heart.
The person she wanted to marry was Ji Changye, not Ji Changqing, and she made all this trouble just for him.
No one knew better than her who would be the future leader of the Ji family. Ji Changqing was no match for Ji Changye. And she wanted to become Ji Changye's wife and step on everyone else's heads.
She pretended to be obsessed with this marriage and unwilling to give up, with the purpose of letting Old Lady Xia tie Xia He to death on Ji Changqingshen.
She also pretends to be pitiful, making the villagers feel that she has been wronged, and making the situation stagnant until the village chief comes to mediate, and then she will rush forward desperately... The village chief will be caught in a dilemma and have to turn his attention to Ji Changye, who is also single in the Ji family.
Everything went as she expected, except for Xia He's last words.
Xia Luo lowered her head, but it didn't matter, as long as the goal was achieved.
Later, she will slowly destroy everything Xia He has, bit by bit, leaving her with nothing!
Xihe's words plunged the entire courtyard into silence. Ji Changye blushed and pointed at Xihe with a trembling finger: "You, you, are unreasonable!" He turned to look at the village chief, "Village chief, what do you mean by that?"
The village chief took a puff of his pipe, smacking his lips, and looked around at the two couples.
"Actually, Xiaohe's suggestion is quite..."
"No, I don't agree!"
Ji's mother was shocked and felt dizzy.
This one is bad enough, and you want to force both of them into their house? No way!
She hurried forward and pulled her youngest son behind her: "Village Chief, I don't agree with this. Didn't Auntie say she would give Xia Luo a dowry? She will definitely find a good family. Our Changye is not suitable."
The village chief frowned and asked, "Does your Changye have a partner?"
Ji's mother shook her head: "No."
"Is your Chang Ye coming back to find a partner this time?"
"……yes."
"Do you think these two girls from the Xia family are bad?"
"……Good."
The village chief slapped his thigh and said, "That's it!"
