Chapter 17 This is an outrageous rumor
These two people's words were like dropping a bomb, shocking everyone.
After Lu Huaizheng recovered, he stared at Lu Cheng with a sharp look: "Did you force Xu Nuo to say this?"
"Dad! You are really wronging me! I am a soldier, not a bandit. How could I do such a thing?" Lu Cheng widened his eyes and defended himself with a look of grievance.
"Do you think I believe you?" Lu Huaizheng slammed his chopsticks on the table. "She came all the way here just to marry you. She has been here for two days and has done nothing, and now she wants to cancel the engagement. What else could it be if it wasn't you forcing her?"
Lu Cheng: "I..."
Cheng Wanying also frowned: "Lu Cheng, you have to keep your word. You promised it in the beginning, so you have to fulfill it."
Lu Cheng was very dissatisfied: "Why? There are many ways to repay the life-saving grace, why do you want to arrange a childhood marriage? Why do you want to sacrifice the rest of my life..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Huaizheng was furious: "Shut up! We in the Lu family don't have a child like you! If Xu Nuo's mother hadn't saved your mother, you wouldn't be where you are today!"
Whenever Lu Huaizheng lost his temper, the whole family would tense up and dare not make a sound.
This is even more true for Lu Cheng.
At this moment, she couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards Xu Nuo: It sounded nice, and he wanted to cancel the engagement, but this was clearly a disguised complaint!
"Uncle Lu, don't be angry." Xu Nuo's voice rang softly, "Lu Cheng didn't force me to do this. It was indeed me who wanted to cancel the engagement."
"Child, is he not good to you? Tell me if you have been wronged, and I will teach this bastard a lesson!" Cheng Wanying was afraid that Xu Nuo would have a psychological burden because of this, so she hurried to enlighten and comfort her.
Xu Nuo smiled lightly: "No, I have no grievances. Lu Cheng doesn't want to marry me, and I may not be willing to marry him. As he said, a forced melon is not sweet. Aunt Cheng, it's better to cancel this marriage."
Lu Huaizheng refused: "No. Since we have decided on this marriage, we must fulfill the agreement we made. If your mother were still alive, I think she would be willing to see this."
"Uncle Lu." Xu Nuo continued, "Actually, my grandmother asked me to come here to get married just to get rid of the marriage that my second uncle had arranged for me. Now that I have escaped from the countryside, I just want to live in this city. Getting married or not... It's actually not that important to me."
This is Xu’s truest thought.
At first, she also thought that if Lu Chengren was not a bad guy, she would just marry him, because she would have to get married sooner or later anyway.
Moreover, getting married could help her get out of her current predicament.
Now it seems that if the other party is unwilling, she doesn't have to marry him.
"This..." Cheng Wanying and Lu Huaizheng both hesitated.
"Okay! Your idea is right! People say that men should be self-reliant, and I think women should also be self-reliant!" Lu Cheng actually applauded Xu Nuo.
Lu Chen glanced at him, said nothing, and pursed his lips tightly.
"Nono, if you really think so, then we respect your opinion. Otherwise, you stay and we will help you solve your work problems." Cheng Wanying said.
"Yes, that's a good idea!" Lu Cheng interrupted again.
Cheng Wanying glared at him fiercely and signaled him to shut up!
If he hadn't been determined to reject the marriage, would the girl have said that? As they say, a forced melon is not sweet, and it seems that she is here for marriage!
However, she was still very grateful for Xu Nuo.
In this matter, she gave the Lu family enough face and did not make things difficult for them.
"Yes, Xu Nuo, you can ask for anything you want." Lu Huaizheng said, "As long as we can satisfy you, we will do our best to satisfy you."
After hearing these words, Zhang Man couldn't help but look up at Lu Huaizheng.
It was unknown what blessing Xu Nuo had earned in his previous life, as there was almost no one who could make his father-in-law say such words.
"I have found a job, but I can't solve the household registration problem by myself. Uncle Lu, if you can help me solve this problem, I will have no problems. I can solve everything else on my own." Xu Nuo said.
She originally had a rural hukou, and the household registration system was like an invisible wall that separated her from the city.
If she couldn't solve the household registration problem, she would have to go back to the countryside. As an orphan, she might be sold to someone as a wife by Xu Laoer, a beast!
So, to put it bluntly, Xu Nuo was willing to accept this marriage because it could solve her household registration problem.
Moreover, in this era, marrying a soldier is obviously the best choice.
Lu Huaizheng nodded slightly: "Okay, I will help you solve the household registration problem, but I may have to wait for an opportunity. You can live here for the time being, and when the household registration problem is solved, it won't be too late for you to move out."
"Okay." Xu Nuo agreed.
When she agreed, Xu Shan became anxious, but she couldn't show it on her face.
What is this?
A good marriage is ruined?
Xu Nuo, this useless piece of trash! Wouldn't it be good to marry a military commander's son?
It's such a luxury to eat and drink delicious food without having to work in the fields. How could she not understand this with her pig brain?
The promised marriage is off, so can she still stay?
Xu Shan was feeling sulky, and when she looked up, she saw Zhang Qiang's eyes rolling around on Xu Nuo.
She couldn't help but curse inwardly: It turns out that men are all lustful creatures. They act like they're eating shit when they see beautiful women!
She was cursing in her heart when she saw Zhang Qiang suddenly turn around and look at her, and grinned at her.
Xu Shan was so surprised and happy that she blushed and lowered her head slightly.
After Lu Cheng's marriage was annulled, he breathed a sigh of relief: Great! Tomorrow he can go to Jiang Niaoniao to explain everything clearly.
"Eat, eat!" Lu Huaizheng picked up the chopsticks again.
I had just finished my meal when I heard someone knocking at the door.
Aunt Lin got up to open the door and saw a group of people standing at the door. Upon closer inspection, she found that they were the wives of the leaders in the compound.
"Aunt Lin, is Wanying here?"
Aunt Lin nodded: "I'm here, eating! Excuse me, what are you doing..."
"It's easy to talk about it at home. Come on, let's go in and take a look. What kind of delicious food does the Army Commander have at home?"
A group of people walked in laughing and chatting.
"Who is it?" Cheng Wanying saw Aunt Lin coming back, with an indescribable complex expression on her face, "What's wrong? Is there a guest?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a bunch of people rushing into the living room.
“Ouch!” Cheng Wanying was really shocked. “Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Six…why are you all here?”
"Of course we are here to congratulate you!" The person who spoke was Zhang Cuihua, Lei Ming's mother. "We all heard about it, Wanying. You kept this a secret so well! You didn't even tell us that your son was getting married!"
"That's right! We were all shocked when we found out!"
"Yes, yes! How did you decide on this marriage?" Liu Aimin was surprised. "My Yang Dong told me this, but I didn't believe it. I didn't expect everyone to spread it. It seems like it's true!"
The chopsticks in Lu Cheng's hand snapped, and his back teeth almost broke: Lei Ming, Yang Dong, Yang Pan, these bastards! ! He said that this matter must not be spread out, it must not be spread out! In the end, it was spread out!
He had a bad feeling in his heart that he had to get married this time whether he wanted to or not!
If he dares not agree, his father will really put a gun to his head and force him to get married!
Cheng Wanying was completely stunned: "This... this matter... we just agreed on it today..."
We agreed not to get married...these words were stuck in my throat and I couldn’t say them!
"Have you decided on a wedding date?" Zhang Cuihua was extremely curious and asked hurriedly, "If you need my help, we will all come and help! Everyone is saying that Cheng Wanying and Lao Lu are really good people! They still recognize the childhood marriage that was arranged more than ten years ago!"
"Yes, yes!" Liu Aimin clapped her hands and said affectionately, "You have done a great thing! Now Old Lu's worry should be solved, right? We never thought that Lu Chen didn't want to get married, but was waiting for this child marriage!"
As Lu Cheng was listening, he suddenly heard his eldest brother's name. He hurriedly asked, "Wait, who are you talking about?"
Liu Aimin said, "Your elder brother Lu Chen! What's wrong? What's the problem?"
