"It's not impossible. When we saw her and that Gao Bing, it seemed like Zhao Yun was pestering him and he didn't want to pay attention to her, so she suddenly went up and hugged him." An Hongdou thought and said.
"Anyway, no matter what, that little bitch must have had an affair with that man. If she really wanted to do it, she wouldn't have come up and asked the fourth brother to cancel the engagement. But when we really went, she regretted it." Old Lady An sighed.
Lin Cuihua asked, "What should we do now? Will the marriage be cancelled?"
Old Lady An snorted coldly, "If he doesn't retreat, that's impossible. The fourth son will be a bachelor for the rest of his life, and we can't have a daughter-in-law like that!"
"What should we do now?" After things turned out like this, Brother An didn't know what to say.
"Drag her along. If she wants to bully me, let's just drag her along and not get married. It's okay for a man like Lao Si to drag it along for two years. I want to see if Zhao Yun is anxious or not." As the saying goes, a man is in his prime at 41, but a woman is like tofu dregs at 30.
In terms of age, women can never outlast men.
But An Hongdou felt that this was not right. "Fourth brother is 22 this year. If we delay it for another two years, he will be 24. He is not too old, but we are at a loss if he delays it for Zhao Yun."
Mrs. An stopped talking too.
After arguing in their village for a whole day today, both Old Lady An and Miao Hong were almost hoarse. Even though An Delai tried to persuade Zhao Yun in every possible way, he was adamant that he would not cancel the engagement, and they were really at a loss as to what to do.
"How about this, I'll go talk to Zhao Yun tomorrow and see what she wants to do." An Hongdou said.
"You?" Wang Dahua stared at An Hongdou in amazement, then rolled her eyes and said, "That's fine, my little sister is very strong, when the time comes, our whole family will go together and knock on their door, and they will have to cancel the engagement even if the Zhao family doesn't want to."
Mrs. An sighed and said, "Your uncle said that we can't fight. Li Jidong is from their village and is focusing on your uncle's mistakes. If we start a fight, he will report your uncle to the brigade. Maybe he will even have to remove his position as the brigade leader. This is not worth it."
Li Jidong was the deputy secretary of the brigade from last time. It just so happened that he happened to be the one who happened to be with me when I went to Zhao's house this time, otherwise I wouldn't have wasted a whole day without getting anything done.
"If there is no other choice, we can only do as mom said and drag Zhao Yun along." Choose the lesser of two evils. Second uncle's position as captain is very important, and they cannot take it as a gamble.
The family discussed for a long time but couldn't come to any conclusion.
Lying on the bed, Old Lady An couldn't help but sigh.
An Hongdou felt uncomfortable seeing her like this, so she poured her a glass of water in an enamel cup.
Mrs. An took two sips and suddenly felt refreshed.
"Girl, did you put something in the cup?" The water she drank was obviously not the same as before. After drinking it, she seemed to feel relaxed all over.
"I did put something in it. It's good for your health, so you can drink it with confidence, Mom." The water obviously tasted wrong, and An Hongdou didn't hide it.
Ever since she mastered the skill of producing ginseng, she has been continuously producing ginseng of different years.
The water given to Old Lady An was added with the essence she extracted from ginseng.
She can extract three to five drops of essence from a ginseng that is several decades old, which is much more effective than simply using it for medicinal purposes.
She only added a drop of it to the water she just poured.
When her wife heard her say this, she didn't ask much. She just felt that the child had grown up and had his own secrets. He didn't tell her everything like before. She felt uncomfortable for a moment.
But think about it, it's a good thing that the child is capable, she should be happy for her, and she felt more open-minded.
In the west room, Lin Cuihua pushed Brother An's shoulder and said, "Dad, do you think our fourth brother's marriage can only be delayed like this?"
Brother An was a little discouraged. "What else can we do if we don't delay it? It's definitely not okay to marry a woman like that. Their family won't agree to cancel the engagement. We can't really involve my second uncle in this."
Lin Cuihua opened her mouth and wanted to say, since the marriage can only be delayed like this, then can the agreed division of the family still be considered?
But thinking about it, at this juncture, if she said these words, it would definitely sound like she was in a rage, so she held back and didn't ask.
Similarly, the women in the second and third rooms were also concerned about this issue. They wanted to ask but didn't know where to start, as no one wanted to be the one who offended others.
An Hongdou got up early in the morning.
He ran to Fourth Brother An's room and said, "Fourth Brother, get up quickly."
Brother An opened his eyes and asked, "Do you want me to go to work?"
These days, whenever An Hongdou doesn't go to the cowshed, he goes there instead. Anyway, he either goes to the cowshed or helps build the house, so he definitely won't be idle at home for the time being.
"No, I told my eldest brother to ask whoever has time to go to the cowshed to help out. You can come with me to Dalin Village." An Hongdou said.
"What are you going to Dalin Village for? Little sister, you don't want to cause trouble for Zhao Yun, do you?" The sleepiness of Fourth Brother An was instantly scared away by An Hongdou.
Because, yesterday, Second Uncle specifically told them not to act rashly on this matter for the time being, and asked him to think carefully about the countermeasures before making any plans.
"I'm not looking for trouble. I just have a few questions for Zhao Yun."
An Hongdou's words made Fourth Brother An feel relieved.
It’s good that he doesn’t go looking for trouble, otherwise, he will have to think about how to persuade his sister.
Fourth Brother An didn't want to go, but An Hongdou dragged him there forcefully.
In time for breakfast, the two men climbed over two mountains and finally arrived at Dalin Village.
It's true that the terrain of Dalin Village is much better than their village. There is a highway not far away. Unlike their village, they have to take a long detour if they want to go out, which is troublesome.
After entering the village, Brother An still asked An Hongdou worriedly, "Little sister, are you really not here to cause trouble?"
"No." An Hongdou couldn't remember how many times she had said these two words.
Fortunately, this is her fourth brother, and he has always loved her very much. If it were someone else, she would have called him a coward.
Regardless of whether Zhao Yuntong agrees to cancel the engagement or not, it’s not me who made the mistake, so it’s not my turn to feel guilty. What is there to be afraid of?
The clothes he wore looked like he had done something wrong.
The Zhao family was sitting under the gate, sitting around a small square table, eating breakfast.
The arrival of An Hongdou and An Sige was unexpected. Zhao Yun's mother immediately turned cold and said, "An Honglin, your family is too bullying. How can our Xiaoyun, a good girl, not be worthy of you? Do you allow me to slander us like this?"
If Zhao Yun didn't admit it, the Zhao family wouldn't believe that their daughter would have an affair with someone else.
So, when faced with the sudden visit of Mrs. An, he just thought that they looked down on their daughter and were looking for an excuse to cancel the engagement.
Unfortunately, this excuse is too insulting and they cannot admit it.
