Chapter 478: What if he can force her to marry him even if she doesn’t want to?
Zhou Lian said, "Sister-in-law, go get some water. Come into the house with my mother first."
Wen Jiu and Zhou's mother entered the house. Wen Jiu looked around the furnishings in the house calmly. Although it was old, it was kept clean everywhere. Even the newspapers pasted on the walls were new. It seemed that she was really looking forward to this wedding.
Seeing Zhou's mother rubbing her hands awkwardly, opening her mouth but closing it again and again with a look of trepidation, Wen Jiu went over to pat Zhou's mother's arm and said with a smile: "Auntie, I'm not a monster, don't be so scared of me. If you're so scared of me, I won't dare to come to your house anymore."
"No, no, no!"
"Why would I be afraid of you?"
Zhou's mother waved her hands repeatedly, "I'm afraid that I'm not good at speaking and neglecting you. I welcome you to my home."
Wen Jiu scolded: "You are still talking nonsense? Aren't we all like this?"
"How am I as smart as you?"
"Please sit down first. I fried some peanuts. I'll get them for you to try." Zhou's mother said as she hurried out and soon brought back another liter of peanuts and placed it in front of the warm wine.
She said shyly, "My cooking skills are not good, so the fried food doesn't look good. Would you like to try it? They are all grown by me at home."
Wenjiu smiled and said, "What's wrong with it? I fried it myself and it smells delicious. You can try some too, auntie." As she spoke, she grabbed a handful and gave it to Zhou's mother, and started eating without hesitation.
The two of them were chatting casually, and soon Zhou Lian came back with some water. Wen Jiu then started to get down to business.
"Auntie, I heard that you arranged a marriage for Brother Zhou and the wedding will take place next month, right?"
Speaking of her son's wedding, Zhou's mother immediately smiled and said, "Yes, you must come to the wedding."
Wen Jiu asked, "Where is she from? Have you seen her?"
"I have seen it before!"
"How could I not have seen it?"
Zhou smiled, "She's pretty and very smart. We got along really well before her mother and I got married, but we didn't see each other after she got married and moved away."
Smart?
What kind of smartness?
She's obviously a crazy woman!
Before Wen Jiu could even start talking, Zhou Lian started yelling anxiously, "Mom, I think you are really old and your eyes are blurry. Is she beautiful? Is she smart? Who are you looking at? Are you blinded by lard?"
"Am I your biological son? Is this how you treat me? Let me marry a lunatic? What good will this do you?"
"You think I've never seen her?"
"He has more colors on his body than a rainbow, he calls me husband as soon as he opens his mouth, feeds me earthworms, calls me brother with a smile one second, and slaps me in the face the next second, and the drool on his chin is longer than the icicles under the eaves. You want me to marry this kind of person?"
"I am old and I have not committed any crime. Why do you have to punish me like this?"
Speaking of Zhou Xia Xia, Zhou Lian became so furious that he wanted to overturn the roof.
Zhou Lian provoked Zhou's mother so much that she completely forgot that the wine was still here. She raised her hand and slapped Zhou Lian on the back of his head twice, "You bastard, stop slandering Xia Xia in front of me. How could I not know who she is? I went to the store with her mother a few days ago! How could that be her?"
"I am not blind or stupid. You are my own son. How can I harm you?"
"When you were little, you told me you were going to marry her. When she left, you almost cried the house down. I've chosen her for you, but you don't acknowledge it?"
"Xia Xia?"
Zhou Lian asked in shock: "The snotty girl who used to live next door to us?"
He only knows this one Xia Xia.
"What snotty girl?"
Zhou's mother slapped her again, "If you hadn't taken Xia Xia out for a run every day, would Xia Xia have been frozen and had a runny nose every day?"
Thinking of what happened back then, Zhou's mother wanted to gouge Zhou Lian's eyes out to death.
What evil had she done?
Gave birth to such a hammer?
Wen Jiu looked at Zhou's mother and then at Zhou Lian. He felt that it didn't matter whether he was there or not. This matter would definitely be resolved smoothly.
Although Zhou Lian was only ten years old when Zhou Xia Xia's family moved away, he clearly remembered that Zhou Xia Xia was neither stupid nor crazy.
So who is that crazy woman?
He touched his nose and asked, "Mom, was there anyone else in the store at that time?"
"Are you sure you're seeing that?"
"Also, why didn't you tell me last night that the person I was engaged to was Zhou Xia Xia?"
Zhou's mother rolled her eyes in anger, "Why didn't I tell you last night? Are your ears for swatting flies?"
"There was only one girl in the store, Xia Xia," How could I be wrong? "
Zhou Lian scratched his head irritably, "But the person I saw was just a crazy woman. My sister-in-law can testify for me that she saw it, too."
Zhou's mother felt her head buzzing, and asked Wen Jiu dazedly, "Is what this brat said true?"
Wen Jiu nodded, "Yes, that girl went to the store to cause trouble today and yesterday."
"Oh my God..."
Zhou's mother's legs went limp instantly, and she sat down on the ground in shock. "What's going on? Why can't I understand?"
"I have a good relationship with your Aunt Hong, and you and Xia Xia have been together for ten years. It's such a great thing that they are back together after all the hard work! How did it suddenly become like this?"
When they found out that each other's children were not married yet, they thought it was an opportunity given by God and quickly decided on this matter, thinking that after their children got married, they would live together and wait for their grandchildren.
Yesterday, Zhou Lian made her so angry that she almost vomited blood. She didn't expect this to happen again today. She really felt like she was going crazy.
Zhou Lian saw that Zhou's mother had sat on the ground, so he quickly bent down, picked her up and sat her on a chair. "Okay, okay, don't get excited. If you say you didn't see it wrong, then you definitely can't be wrong."
He is not afraid of arguing with his mother when she is strong enough, but he gets scared when she loses her strength, fearing that something bad might happen to her.
Wen Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Brother Zhou, do you remember what I told you yesterday? I think the person you saw was Xia Xia, and the person your aunt saw was also Xia Xia, but the person you saw was Xia Xia pretending to be a crazy woman."
"If she is really crazy and stupid, can she find the location of our store?"
"She said she was looking for you as soon as she came in yesterday. How could a madman or a fool know that?"
Zhou Lian listened to Wenjiu's words and thought about it carefully, and found something wrong. He was too angry before and didn't have time to think about it. Combined with Wenjiu's words, he realized that it was true.
He was stunned. "So why did she do this?"
Wenjiu touched his nose awkwardly, not quite sure how to express himself.
Isn't that obvious?
Xia Xia doesn't want to marry you, so she deliberately makes you hate her so that you won't marry her!
Zhou Lian looked into Wenjiu's eyes and suddenly something clicked in his mind. He felt as if his heart had been stabbed twice, and anger bubbled up.
He took her out to play for eight years, and she followed him around, calling him brother for eight years, and even said that she wanted to marry him in the future.
Then she turns around and acts like a madman and forces him to break off the engagement?
What if she doesn't want to, can he still force her to marry him?
Is it really that cruel?
