When Li Yuzhu arrived at her aunt's house around 9 a.m., the gate was wide open, and she rode her motorcycle straight into the house.
Auntie San came out of the house when she heard the motorcycle. She said, "Yuzhu's here. I heard from your mother the day before yesterday that you got divorced. How could Dongqing be such a scoundrel? I've been married to him for over a year, living in constant fear and worry. We've only had two good days before he pulls this stunt. I knew he wasn't a reliable man!"
Li Yuzhu said, "Third Aunt, Dongqing isn't as bad as you think. It's me who divorced him, not his fault."
The mother said, "If he hadn't bullied you, would you have divorced him? In my heart, he's never been a good person. Don't say anything more. Meet with him this morning, and if it goes well, set the wedding date."
Li Yuzhu couldn't explain it to her mother. If her mother knew that she was divorcing Dong Qing because of a 15 million yuan loan, she was afraid that she and Dong Qing would have no hope left. In this day and age, what does a 15 million yuan loan mean? Everyone would think he was crazy.
If her mother found out, forget about remarrying Dongqing; she probably wouldn't let her go back. She knew her mother's personality best; she would never let her take the risk with Dongqing.
My aunt said, "Listen to me, you two should meet first. If it goes well, then make it a deal. This boy is really good. His father works at the county bus station and will retire this May."
His older brothers were all married, and he was the youngest. After his father retired, he was assigned to take over the job at the county bus station. After taking over, he would be a permanent employee. Besides, this kid is very handsome. You're a year older than him; it's already good enough that he doesn't mind that you have a child. Listen to him, meet him, and if things go well, settle down. It's really hard to find someone like him."
Mother said, "Third sister, don't discuss it with her. She's just a silly girl. She wouldn't even know if Dongqing sold her. Go and call the person over quickly."
"Alright, you and your daughter can wait inside for a while. I'll call the person over so you can meet them first."
After Auntie finished speaking, she walked towards the gate. Li Yuzhu knew that she had to see her today, whether she wanted to or not.
Li Yuzhu took her son from her mother's arms and turned to walk into the house.
Not long after, my third aunt returned with a young man.
The young man was very handsome, about 1.75 meters tall, with fair skin and a clean appearance.
My aunt said, "Let me introduce you. This is my neighbor's nephew, Sun Hao, and this is my niece, Li Yuzhu!"
Sun Hao said, "We knew each other before."
After hearing this, Auntie San looked at Li Yuzhu and asked, "Really?"
Li Yuzhu didn't say anything after hearing this, but just nodded in agreement.
Li Yuzhu and Sun Hao did know each other before. After graduating from high school, Li Yuzhu went to work at a porcelain factory in town. One night, on her way home from get off work, a man harassed her. Sun Hao happened to be passing by and beat the man away.
Sun Hao had a minor injury on his arm, and Li Yuzhu took him to the clinic for treatment.
The two later became friends. After Li Yuzhu got married, they rarely saw each other. Unexpectedly, today's blind date was him. Fate is really playing tricks on people.
When asked how they met, Sun Hao lied and said, "We met a few years ago when we were working at a porcelain factory."
It's normal to get to know someone while working at the porcelain factory, and Auntie didn't think anything of it. She said, "Now that you know each other, there's no need to be so reserved. Why don't you go to the side room and talk?"
Li Yuzhu remained silent, and since her blind date was Sun Hao, she was even less inclined to speak. She thought to herself, "I'll pretend to be mute today. If I can't speak, how can this marriage possibly go through?"
Li Yuzhu and Sun Hao entered the side room and sat down on the stools. Sun Hao kept the conversation flowing and talked about how they had known each other in the past, but Li Yuzhu didn't say a word.
Sun Hao asked, "Yuzhu, we're not that strangers, are we? Why aren't you saying anything?"
Li Yuzhu took out a notebook and pen from her bag and wrote two lines on the paper: "My throat is damaged and I have never been able to speak in my life. My ex-husband divorced me because of this. If you don't mind that I am mute, let's get engaged."
Li Yuzhu is really wicked. She actually wrote this unacceptable text. After finishing it, she handed the notebook to Sun Hao. After reading it, Sun Hao's heart sank. Li Yuzhu has a child and is mute. Can he accept such a wife?
He returned the notebook to Li Yuzhu, stood up, and said, "Excuse me, I have some things to take care of at home, I'll head back now."
After Sun Hao finished speaking, he walked out of the side room, went to the main room to greet Li Yuzhu's third aunt, and then turned and left the house.
As the matchmaker, Third Aunt followed Sun Hao toward the gate.
As they walked outside the gate, Auntie asked, "Sun Hao, how do you think my niece is?"
Sun Hao said, "Auntie, you can't do things like this. I don't mind your niece having a child, but she's mute! Why didn't you tell me beforehand? Even if I'm down on my luck, I can't possibly marry a mute, can I?"
After hearing this, Auntie San understood everything. She wasn't surprised at all; it was just that girl causing trouble. She asked, "What did he tell you?"
Sun Hao said, "She wrote two lines in her notebook and handed them to me. It said her throat was damaged and she would never be able to speak again, which was why her ex-husband divorced her."
Auntie was furious when she heard this, but she couldn't tell Sun Hao the truth. She said, "Nephew, let me put it this way, she has indeed had a sore throat and can't speak for a while. It's my fault for not telling you beforehand. She'll be able to speak again after a while."
The claim that her husband divorced her because of a sore throat is pure nonsense. She divorced her ex-husband, and she was in a bad mood right after the divorce, which might have made it difficult for her to speak due to the sore throat. It's probably a combination of both. I just wrote you a short message. Go back and wait a bit longer. Once her throat is better and she's in a better mood, you can meet again. Is this arrangement alright, Auntie?
It's normal to be in a bad mood after a divorce, and it's also normal to not want to talk because of a sore throat. Sun Hao didn't think anything of it. He said, "I see. I understand her situation. Okay, I'll go back and wait for your news."
After saying that, Sun Hao turned around and went back.
When my third aunt returned home, my mother asked, "Third sister, what did the man say? Is he willing?"
The aunt suppressed her anger and lied, saying, "If they're willing, first ask your precious daughter if she's willing. If she's willing, then the marriage is settled, right?"
After hearing this, Li Yuzhu didn't know if it was true or false, and she couldn't believe that Sun Hao would be willing to marry a divorced mute woman. She really couldn't believe that what her aunt said was true.
The mother asked, "Zhu'er, are you willing?"
Li Yuzhu did not answer her mother's question. Instead, she asked, "Third Aunt, tell me the truth, is Sun Hao really willing?"
Auntie San thought to herself, "You've really grown up; you're trying to outsmart me." She said, "Why would I lie to you? People say your muteness is easily cured; he'll help you get it. You just need to agree to this marriage."
After hearing this, the mother asked, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did she become mute?"
My aunt said, "Ask your precious daughter when she became mute."
