Chapter 7: Marriage



The next morning, Shen Chu Ning originally wanted to get up early, but she was spoiled by her father and brothers, and had long been accustomed to sleeping until she woke up naturally.

Until there was a bustling sound in the yard outside.

Shen Chu Ning was just woken up.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw that it was bright outside and the sun was halfway up in the sky.

At this time, everyone in the village finished their morning work while it was still cool, and went home to have breakfast.

Lin Shulan also took advantage of this time to quickly call three familiar aunts and the village women's director to go to the Shen family together.

Shen's father, Shen Lao Da and Shen Lao Er had just returned from work and saw several aunts and the women's director from the village coming together.

The three of them were startled. Could something have happened to Ningning last night?

"Old Shen, Zhengxu, Zhengliang, you've come back just in time, a happy event has arrived!" Women's director Lv Xiaohong said to the three members of the Shen family with a happy face.

On the way here just now, Lin Shulan had asked her to be a matchmaker, so naturally she had to be the one to initiate the conversation.

The Shen family's father and son were stunned, but there was no joy on their faces.

They knew that their daughter (sister) was chasing after that educated youth.

Although they looked down on the educated youth, their own daughter (sister) was very stubborn and they could do nothing about it.

They had thought of waiting for a while, until Shen Chu Ning's anger towards Chen Ziyun had passed, and then they would talk to Shen Chu Ning properly, but they didn't expect...

Shen Zhengrong, who was shirtless and carrying water, came back with a face as gloomy as if it was going to rain.

When he saw the director of women's affairs and a few aunts, he went straight into the house without even saying hello.

Lu Xiaohong looked at Shen Zhengrong's solid muscles and was a little surprised, "Old Shen, this kid..."

Of the four children in the Shen family, except for the spoiled Shen Chuning, the three boys are all good kids. They are enthusiastic, honest, polite, work hard, and have high ideological awareness.

Especially the third child, who joined the army with the other children of the Zhou family and all became glorious officers.

Father Shen also smiled helplessly: “Director Lu, her aunts, please come in and sit down first!”

Lu Xiaohong, Lin Shulan and four others entered the Shen family and sat down.

Before anyone spoke, Father Shen sighed and said, “Director Lu, you are here today for my Ningning’s marriage, right?”

Lu Xiaohong had long felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the Shen family.

When she entered the door just now, she and Lin Shulan exchanged glances.

But Lin Shulan didn't know what was going on.

Her old son clearly said last night that he had discussed it with Shen Chuning.

Seeing the worried look on Father Shen's face, Lv Xiaohong quickly smiled to ease the atmosphere and said, "Old Shen, we all know that you have a precious daughter, so it's normal that you don't want to let her go. But men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. No matter how reluctant you are, you can't delay your children's marriage, right?"

She was not talking about Shen Chuning's marriage alone.

There is also the marriage of the three brothers of the Shen family.

The three brothers of the Shen family are all good people, so why haven’t they gotten married yet?

It's because I have a sister like Shen Chuning.

With such a pampered sister, everyone is afraid that their daughter will be bullied by her sister-in-law after marrying into the Shen family. Therefore, many girls of the three brothers of the Shen family have fallen in love with them over the years, but no one dares to marry into the family.

At this time, Shen Zhengxu and Shen Zhengliang had already heard from Shen Zhengrong what happened last night.

The two were so angry that they wanted to pick up their knives and chop up that bastard Chen Ziyun right now.

Hearing what the director of women said, Shen Zhengxu rushed out of the house with his fists clenched, “Aunt Lu, you don’t have to say anything, Ningning won’t marry!”

Shen Zhengliang also said: "Let others say whatever they want to say about Ningning. As her brother, we will support Ningning for her whole life and will never let her marry such a bastard!"

When the two brothers said this, Lu Xiaohong, Lin Shulan and the other three aunts who came to propose marriage looked at each other in bewilderment.

Lin Shulan was so angry that she was about to smoke.

Not only is her eldest son tall, he is also an officer in the army, with a higher rank than the third son of the Shen family. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the most promising young man in the area.

Even if Shen Chu Ning is a celestial being, her old son is worthy of her!

Now she was scolded by the Shen brothers. She couldn't swallow it no matter what. She stood up and fought back: "Yes, yes, your sister is a fairy in heaven. We mortals can't reach her. If we can't reach her, why don't we just give up?"

Shen Chu Ning was listening to the noise in the house. Seeing that the situation was not good, she rushed out and stopped Lin Shulan, "Aunt, wait a moment. My brother and the others must have some misunderstanding..."

"What misunderstanding could there be? There is no misunderstanding! Don't even think about marrying that useless, scheming Chen Zhiqing!"

As soon as Shen Zhengxu said this, the room suddenly became quiet.

After a while, Lv Xiaohong was the first to react. She clapped her hands and said, "Oh my, isn't this a misunderstanding? Who told you that we are here to propose marriage to Chen Zhiqing? We are here to propose marriage to Shulan's third son!"

Upon hearing this, the Shen family father and son looked at each other in surprise.

Shen Zhengrong was even more shocked.

"Aunt Lu, who are you proposing marriage for my sister?"

Lu Xiaohong gave him a reproachful look, "The third son of the Zhou family, Zhou Yubai, is your good comrade-in-arms and good comrade!"

The three brothers came to their senses and hurriedly moved the stools and pushed all the aunts back, "Aunts, please sit down, sit down quickly."

"Just now we were ignorant and reckless. You adults should be magnanimous and don't bother with us little guys."

Chen Zhengliang was particularly embarrassed in front of Lin Shulan, "Aunt, I really didn't know... What I said just now was not to scold Zhou Laosan, but to scold...

Have some tea to calm down. ”

He handed the water to Lin Shulan with an embarrassed look on his face.

Although Lin Shulan was not very satisfied with Shen Chuning, her old son liked her.

Besides, these children of the Shen family were all raised by her, and they were all miserable children. After knowing that it was a misunderstanding, she, as an elder, would not bother with the younger ones.

After drinking Shen Zhengliang's tea, he said, "Now that there is no misunderstanding, you won't stop me, right?"

The three brothers of the Shen family waved their hands again and again, "No, no, no."

Shen Chu Ning was embarrassed to listen to the elders discussing her marriage here, and said with a red face: "Dad, brother, aunt, you just got off work, you haven't eaten yet, I'll go get you something to eat."

After saying that, she quickly ran into the kitchen.

Lv Xiaohong joked: "Ningning has grown up and is now shy."

The expressions of the three brothers of the Shen family changed slightly.

Their sister has never done any housework, how can she cook?

Be careful not to burn the kitchen down. It would be embarrassing, but it would be bad if your future mother-in-law dislikes you.

Shen Zhengxu winked at Shen Zhengliang, and Shen Zhengliang quickly said, “Dad, big brother, you guys chat with the aunts first, I’ll go help Ningning.”

"I'll go too." Shen Zhengrong stood up.
