The Xu family looked at each other in embarrassment. They had never expected that this would be exposed so quickly. As long as the marriage went smoothly and the young couple had developed feelings for each other, there was nothing they could do even if they knew about this. At most, they could give some compensation when the time came. Now the marriage hadn't even started yet...
"You are committing marriage fraud. You have ruined my good son Qingqi. If the Sun family hadn't come to find us, we would have had to suffer this loss, right?" Liu Cuiqi questioned.
Father Xu's face was filled with guilt. He knew that it was not right to do this and that his daughter had suffered a great deal. He wanted her to live a peaceful and happy life in the future. He had thought that after they got married, if the Xu family came looking for him, he would give Xingyuan some compensation, and he and his wife would give the money to them after they retired.
"My dear relatives, we were wrong in this matter. We shouldn't have kept it secret. Lingling is also a victim and she is innocent. We really like Xingyuan. How about this? We get married and as compensation, they will take over our jobs after my wife and I retire?" Father Xu looked at Li Mantun expectantly.
"The marriage hasn't been completed yet, and we're not relatives yet. Our family doesn't want a job at all. We won't sell our son for a job, and we won't hide it for your family. We still have to find another one for my son, and our reputation can't be ruined. So let's just leave it at that. Take your things and leave." Li Mantun didn't make things difficult for the Xu family. Making things difficult meant asking for some compensation, and saying so would make their reputation look bad.
"Master, are you just going to let it go like this? We've been busy for so many days and spent so much money. Everyone in the village and outside the village knows about it. How can Xingyuan find a good girl?" Liu Cuiying refused to agree. In addition to the betrothal gift, she had spent so much money on everything. The most important thing was whether this was Xingyuan's first marriage or a second one. How could he find a good girl?
"Then what do you want to do? Let Xingyuan continue to marry?" Li Mantun also knew this, what could he do.
"Stop arguing, let's solve the problem once it happens." The old lady interrupted the couple's quarrel. "Xingyuan, what do you think?"
Xingyuan, who had been squatting at the foot of the wall, raised his head
Xu Lingling's eyes were full of pleading and her face was covered with tears. Xingyuan was a good man. Although he didn't talk much, he took care of her in every way and was hardworking and down-to-earth. After getting married, the two of them could live their own lives, which was exactly what Xu Lingling wanted.
The Xu family members were also full of anticipation. After two months of relationship, they hoped that Xingyuan could let go of the past grudges.
"Mom, why ask him? No matter what he thinks, I will not allow a married woman with children into the house." The girl is pitiful, and it has nothing to do with their family, and it is not their fault. You think you can deceive us just because you feel sorry for them? You want to control their family with a crappy job, what the hell are you dreaming of!
Liu Cuiying didn't care about the old lady's expression. No one could say anything about this matter.
Old lady...you didn't even ask your son what he thought. Xingyuan's own thoughts are very important, so as to avoid entanglements in the future. You've been following him around all day long!
Li Mancang also thought of this and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. After all, this is Xingyuan's lifelong event. Listen to his ideas."
"Xingyuan, I know it was wrong for me to lie to you. I wanted to tell you several times, but I was afraid that you would dislike me, so I didn't dare. You are so nice, I really can't bear to leave you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Xu Lingling cried pitifully.
"You bitch..." Sun's mother couldn't help but curse, but was stopped by Sun's father. Now it was the Li family's business, and they'd better not get involved, so as not to vent their anger on them. They were not afraid of the Xu family, but the Li family, and this was the Li family's territory.
Xingyuan looked at Xu Lingling with disappointment and reluctance in his eyes. Seeing his parents shaking with anger, he felt ashamed. He wondered why he hadn't been more careful and noticed something was wrong earlier. Xu Lingling wanted to say something but stopped herself several times, but he didn't care.
"Xingyuan, tell me what you want to do," the old lady said again.
