Upon hearing this, Su Yuanzhi and the others quickly followed. Su Jingshu couldn't stay at home any longer, so she simply took Su Mama and left the Zhou family.
Zhou Mingxin hadn't gone far when he ran into Shen Muyang. Upon hearing that Ningbao had gone to fight, the usually quiet young man became unusually flustered. He quickly ran back to the manor to call for help. Even the Daoist Sanqing and Daoist Wuchen, who had just woken up, sensed that something was wrong.
Before long, everyone from the original Shanglin Village rushed to Lin Dazhu's house.
Meanwhile, things were already in an uproar at Lin Dazhu's house.
Earlier, Ms. Xu went to the Li family and refused the blind date today. Seeing that the marriage was about to fall through, Ms. Li was unwilling to give up.
She ran straight back to her parents' home and said that the Lin family wanted to break off the engagement. In fact, the two sides had never even met, let alone been engaged, so there was no question of breaking off the engagement.
But the Li family has always been unreasonable. They led a group of people to the Lin family, saying they wanted to tie Lin Huixin up and bring her back to the Li family for their wedding that very day.
Fortunately, Lin Dazhu hadn't gone to the fields yet; otherwise, with Lin Huixin alone in the family, the Li family might have really succeeded.
Lin Dongyang would go to the Mu family every morning to practice martial arts with Mu Chengle and his brothers. He happened to see Xu Shi at the Mu family, so when he finished practicing and returned home, he saw Li Shi leading people to kidnap Lin Huixin, and immediately ran back to the Mu family to report the news.
When Ning Bao and his group arrived, Lin Dazhu was protecting Lin Huixin and confronting the Li family.
Li's eldest sister-in-law pointed at Lin Dazhu and spoke with great enthusiasm.
"Young man of the Lin family, Lin Huixin is our Li family's daughter-in-law. We've come to marry her today, what right do you have to stop us?"
Lin Dazhu's family and Mu Youcai's family were next door. When Mu Youcai's wife, Wang Wencai, saw the Li family arguing, she quickly ran to her mother-in-law's house, which was separated from her own by only one wall, and pulled Zhao Juhua to run towards the Lin family.
Zhao Juhua and her mother-in-law arrived at the Lin family's door and overheard Li's sister-in-law's words. Zhao Juhua immediately spat a string of foul language at Li's sister-in-law.
"Pah! That's bullshit."
Have you Li family any shame? Our Huixin has absolutely no relation to your family. When did she become your Li family's daughter-in-law?
"Don't you even take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? You actually dared to want to marry our Huixin? Who gave you the audacity?"
This eldest sister-in-law of the Li family is used to being domineering in the village, and she's also quite skilled at arguing.
Zhao Juhua's sudden appearance caught her off guard. She remembered her sister-in-law talking about the Lin family, which was a widow and her children. So who was this old woman?
Receiving a look from her sister-in-law, Li quickly stepped forward.
“Aunt Chrysanthemum, the Lin family has no relation to your Mu family. You can’t deliberately ruin someone else’s good marriage.”
"Ha!" Zhao Juhua sneered.
"A good marriage? Nobody would believe this is a good marriage. If your nephew from your wife's side were good enough, would you be so eager to snatch him away?"
This is taking advantage of us because we're outsiders and don't know our background!
What was said in jest was taken seriously by the listener. Shen Muyang, who had just run over, immediately sent his servant and bodyguard Leng Feng to inquire about the village where the Li family lived.
Leng Feng was skilled in martial arts and light footwork, and disappeared in just a few breaths.
Xu stumbled over to Li, looking at her with great anger.
“Mrs. Li, you did help my Huixin find a match, but the two families haven’t even met. We haven’t made any commitments or left any letters. I told you this morning that today’s blind date was canceled. So tell me, what’s going on here?”
Li looked at Xu and said in a serious tone,
"Sister-in-law Lin, you can't say that. You came to my house yesterday and said you had taken a liking to my nephew and wanted to get married as soon as possible. Today you suddenly say you want to marry someone else. Are you trying to marry one woman to two men?"
Li's eldest sister-in-law continued.
"That's right. Your Lin family said you wanted to form a marriage alliance with our Li family, but you changed your mind in the blink of an eye. Doesn't that mean you don't respect our Li family?"
My son is a student who has passed the imperial examination. It's an honor for him to take a liking to your daughter. I advise you not to be ungrateful.
"Today, my mother is carrying him away; my son is going to his wedding night today."
