Chapter 228: Escape from marriage, Tian Tian ran away
In the alley.
Tian family.
The place was decorated with colorful lights and there was a festive atmosphere. Neighbors passing by were eagerly waiting, "Old Tian, what kind of happy event is this at your house?"
"Yeah, why haven't I heard any news about this? Is this a wedding? Old Tian, have you found a wife?"
Tian Tian's father, Tian Jun, appears to be honest and upright, but he is actually an extremely selfish villain in his heart.
"Go away, stop gossiping. I'm marrying off my daughter."
He even asked the neighbors passing by to look inside the house. "This is Tian Tian's in-laws' family. They're from a farming village. Don't think they're not wealthy. They gave 200,000 yuan for the betrothal gift alone."
The neighbors frowned when they heard this, "Old Tian, Tian Tian's exams just finished, and you're letting her get married?"
Tian Jun said, "Girls have to get married sooner or later. My daughter Tian Tian is sensible and told me that she would get married after the exam. The reason we didn't have a big wedding was because she said she didn't want a big crowd. She just wanted someone from her in-laws to drive a car over and pick her up."
"Come, let me introduce you. This is Tian Tian's husband, Wang Facai. He's a little older than Tian Tian, but Tian Tian first met him when she was sixteen. They fell in love at first sight. The son-in-law dotes on Tian Tian and lets her finish her education."
The neighbors looked at Wang Facai with smiles on their faces. He was about 40 years old, about the same age as them. It was obvious that he was an old bachelor and his family was saving money to buy him a wife.
He has a bad face, wears a suit, and doesn't look like a good guy.
"Old Tian, are you not going to let Tian Tian go to college anymore?"
The neighbor wanted to ask more questions, but Tian Jun said, "Why go to college? It's good enough if you can finish high school. Even if you go to college, first of all, not only the money, but also you have to get married. Why waste those years? Get married early and enjoy happiness early. My son-in-law will never need her for food and clothing."
The neighbors didn't dare to say much. At this time, Wang Facai's mother and sister-in-law smiled at the neighbors and said, "Hello, neighbors. Come, have some wedding candy and share in the joy. My son likes Tian Tian very much. Don't worry, my family will bring her home to be worshipped as a daughter-in-law."
"We love Tian Tian so much, we won't let her suffer even a little bit."
The neighbor frowned, but said with a forced smile, "Well, Lao Tian, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. You can greet your in-laws."
Oh my god, why did Old Tian do such a bad thing again? Tian Tian is his own daughter. It’s obvious that this family is not a good family. Did Tian Tian really agree to marry him?
Then the neighbor sighed and said, what if she doesn’t get married?
When she was six years old, her biological mother abandoned her and ran away. She grew up relying on the support of her neighbors. They thought that Tian Jun let her go to high school and awakened her consciousness that only girls can have their own future by going to college.
It's all nonsense.
The child has a hard time having such a father, but even though they all have empathy, it is still someone else's family affair. I hope Tian Tian can be really happy after marrying him.
Outside the window, the afterglow fades away.
Wang Facai saw that Tian Tian had not returned yet, so he slammed his palm on the coffee table. "Father-in-law, it's almost dark, why hasn't Tian Tian come back yet?"
Wang Facai's mother said, "Yes, isn't it over at 4:30? Oh my god, it's almost 6:30. My dear, Tian Tian won't regret the engagement, right?"
Tian Jun immediately comforted the Wang family mother and son, "No, my dear, don't you, as her mother-in-law, understand Tian Tian's personality? Tian Tian is very obedient. She said she would get married after the exam, and she will. Wait a moment, I'll give her a call."
"My Tian Tian has been sensible and loyal since she was little. She's getting married right after the exams. She must want to say goodbye to her classmates. Don't worry, she won't regret the marriage, let alone run away. I'm her only relative in the world, where can she run away to?"
Tian Jun smiled apologetically, but the Queen Mother scoffed, "I hope what you said is true, but please don't delay the auspicious time. The forty-five tables of banquets in the village are still set up."
"My dear relatives, we are all people of our word. We only let Tian Tian finish high school because we saw that she was a good student. Otherwise, we would have taken her away long ago."
"Where can she find a family like ours that is sensible and righteous?"
Wang Facai echoed, "Exactly. She was able to marry me because your Tian family was so lucky. Two hundred thousand yuan for the bride price. We're the only family in our village that rich."
Tian Jun continued to smile, "Yes, yes, this is all my Tian Tian's blessing, she will definitely cherish it."

Tian Jun was struck by lightning immediately.
Call again.
[The number you dialed is not in service. Please verify before redialing...]
[The number you dialed is not in service. Please verify...]
[The number you dialed is not in service, please verify...]
"No number, in-laws, what's going on? You even got your daughter's phone number wrong?"
The Queen Mother was shocked, and the eldest daughter-in-law felt uneasy, "Mom, this girl won't run away, right?"
When Wang Facai heard that his wife had run away, he immediately stood up from the stool, grabbed Tian Jun by the collar and yelled, "Father-in-law, what's going on? If my wife ran away, I wonder how you're going to explain it to me."
Tian Jun was stunned by his yelling, "No, Tian Tian won't run away, son-in-law, you wait at home, I'll go find her now."
"You don't want to run away too, do you? Mom, let's follow him and take Tian Tian away if we see her."
The Queen Mother nodded and said, "Okay, let's go together. We can't let this girl get away."
When Tian Jun arrived at the school and asked other students and teachers, they all said, "Tian Tian, she left a long time ago."
Tian Jun knelt on the ground and wailed, saying that Tian Tian hadn't returned home and that he couldn't get through on the phone. His classmates and teachers suggested, "Ask An Nuan and Li Xiong. They were the closest to Tian Tian, so maybe she's with them."
Tian Jun was like a man who had just been enlightened. "Yes, find An Nuan!"
The group fell back into the alley.
