Chapter 12 Bold Words
Her tone was calm.
"Aunt Chen, it's not time yet, what's the rush?"
The moment Chen Cuiying saw Qiao Wanyin's beautiful face, her anger flared up instantly.
"You little vixen, now you think you're so capable, huh? You even dare to complain about my Jianshe's lameness?"
"Who do you think you are? Besides having a pretty face, what gives you the right to look down on my family's construction project?"
"Just you wait, someone will come to propose marriage eventually. I don't believe we can't find a better family than you!"
Hearing this, Qiao Wanyin found it utterly ridiculous.
Where did she say Chen Jianshe was a cripple yesterday?
This kid really knows how to complain to his mother.
"Aunt Chen, don't just stand there. It's tiring to curse while standing. Why don't you sit down and talk?"
Qiao Wanyin smiled slightly and handed a stool to Chen Cuiying.
Chen Cuiying didn't react for a moment.
I have no idea what this little girl is up to.
Why did it suddenly become so strange?
No matter what, I have to prove my son right today!
"Didn't you say someone came to propose marriage? Where is that person? I don't believe that within a ten-mile radius, there's any decent person who would want someone like you!"
Qiao Wanyin was speechless, not knowing what to say.
Oh right, where did they go?
She couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Time seemed to freeze at that moment as she looked up at the dazzling sun.
The light was so bright that she could hardly open her eyes.
Fu Li'an, Fu Li'an, are you really trying to make me lose all face?
She cursed inwardly, while also feeling a growing sense of anxiety.
Seeing how wronged Qiao Wanyin looked, Chen Cuiying was quite certain that no man would ever marry her.
A hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.
"Hmph! You still want someone to propose marriage?"
"You can forget about getting married in this lifetime. Who would want a good-for-nothing like you who only knows how to eat rice?"
"Comrade Qiao Wanyin!"
Suddenly, a man's voice interrupted Chen Cuiying.
Everyone turned to look at the doorway.
They were all immediately shocked.
Fu Lian was standing at the door carrying many things.
His tall, slender figure appeared exceptionally upright in the sunlight.
Qiao Wanyin barely managed to suppress the excitement in her heart.
"Comrade Fu, you've finally arrived!"
She was practically screaming inside her.
If you don't come soon, you'll get your face slapped so hard it'll be swollen!
Her eyes were glistening with tears.
The three sisters-in-law of the Qiao family stared wide-eyed.
"Is he...is he really Fu Zhiqing?"
Liu Suqin could hardly believe her eyes.
"It really does seem to be Fu Zhiqing!"
Her voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.
In the entire Yuwei Village, Fu Zhiqing was the most handsome and dashing.
Every time I went to work in the fields, the young women and wives would take a few extra glances at me.
How could it be wrong?
But how could Fu Zhiqing, who is so good-looking and capable, fall for her own sister-in-law?
This question puzzled the Joe family.
Chen Cuiying looked at the young man in front of her.
The wrinkles on her face have smoothed out considerably.
"You...you are Fu Zhiqing?"
What are you doing here?
She couldn't believe her eyes.
impossible!
This idea almost popped into Chen Cuiying's mind.
How could Fu Zhiqing have fallen for Qiao Wanyin?
In her eyes, Qiao Wanyin was nothing more than a girl with a bad reputation.
He was worlds apart from the outstanding young man in front of him.
Fu Li'an's tone remained calm and indifferent.
"I'm just blind to come and propose marriage."
His answer was direct and frank.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Wanyin was stunned. "?!"
Brother, can't you speak properly?
That's a really direct way of putting it.
"What? You actually fell for this little bitch? Fu Zhiqing, do you know what kind of person she is? Her reputation in this area is absolutely terrible!"
Chen Cuiying practically shouted it out.
No one knew why Fu, the most outstanding educated youth in the village, would choose to come to their home to propose marriage.
The villagers had been saying that Fu Zhiqing used to be a soldier in the army and seemed to be very remarkable.
More importantly, he also has relatives who are officials.
Although it is unclear why he chose to return to rural life.
But one thing is certain: such talented people will not stay in the countryside for long.
Before long, he will be recalled to the city and given a promotion opportunity.
Originally, Chen Jianshe planned to use this opportunity to create a disturbance here.
This was to force Qiao Wanyin to change her mind.
To everyone's surprise, someone actually came forward to propose marriage.
Moreover, he was the most outstanding educated youth in the entire village.
If it were someone else, Chen Jianshe might have tried to fight for it.
But now, facing such an opponent, he felt more powerless than ever before.
Although he had a limp and always walked with a stagger.
But he was doing alright.
After all, his family owns a shop.
Although the clanging and banging sounds were noisy every day, they brought him a certain amount of income.
At least I can eat noodles at every meal.
This was considered quite good at the time.
Based on this alone, Qiao Wanyin would consider his suggestion.
After all, having enough to eat and wear is a major pursuit in life.
However, at this very moment, an adversary appeared—Fu Li'an.
snort!
What's the use of being good-looking?
What good is being handsome?
What can compare to my down-to-earth approach to life and my genuine love for my wife?
Thinking of this, Chen Jianshe felt a surge of courage and decided to make one last gamble.
"Wanyin, please don't marry that guy! How about I add another 300 yuan to the 500 yuan dowry I promised your family? As long as you're willing to marry me, I'll make sure you become the happiest woman!"
Since we can't compete with others in terms of appearance.
Then we can only try to improve in other ways.
For example, financial resources!
This is the only thing Chen Jianshe can currently offer.
He believed that as long as he was generous enough, he would definitely be able to win Qiao Wanyin's heart.
To his surprise, Qiao Wanyin across from him gave him a helpless smile in response to his bold words.
"Ahem! Comrade Chen Jianshe, do you think you're a bit like Wu Dalang? But I'm sorry, I'm not Pan Jinlian, we're not like each other at all!"
After saying that, she looked up at Fu Lian, who was standing not far away.
“Fu Zhiqing and I are the true love, right, Fu Zhiqing?”
Faced with such a question, Fu Li'an was momentarily at a loss for words and could only smile awkwardly without giving a direct response.
"......."
Whose daughter is so bold as to say such things in front of so many people?
"Oh, Fu Zhiqing, don't just stand at the door, come in and sit down. She's finally got to see her sweetheart!"
Liu Suqin, realizing what was happening, quickly called out.
