Chapter 185 How can you treat people like this?

The wooden door of the Zhan family creaked open and Zhan Zhicheng walked out.

Aunt Wang said to the other woman with a bit of pride: "This is the second son of the Zhan family. What do you think? He is not bad looking, is he?"

Mrs. Wei looked at Zhan Zhicheng calmly.

The young man has okay facial features and a decent height. Although he is a little thinner, he looks lean. I think when the time comes, he can work and should have no problem supporting the Li couple in their old age.

Mrs. Wei nodded with a hint of satisfaction.

Zhan Zhicheng was a little confused: "Auntie Wang, this is..."

Aunt Wang winked at Zhan Zhicheng and nudged him with her elbow: "...Aren't you discussing marriage with the Li family's daughter recently? ...The eldest daughter of the Li family married into her family."

Zhan Zhicheng suddenly became a little shy and didn't know how to address Grandma Wei. Finally, he stammered, "Auntie, Auntie."

Mrs. Wei smiled kindly at Zhan Zhicheng: "...Don't be nervous, I'm here to celebrate someone's birthday. I heard that you were discussing marriage with Donghua, so I came to see you."

Zhan Zhicheng nodded nervously, not knowing what to say.

Aunt Wang smoothed things over for him and said with a smile, "...Zhicheng is an honest child, but he stutters a bit and is not very good at speaking. Don't worry about it. He is a good person."

Seeing how nervous Zhan Zhicheng was, Mrs. Wei also felt that this boy was an honest man.

"Have you met Donghua?" Mrs. Wei asked kindly, trying to make Zhan Zhicheng relax.

A blush appeared on Zhan Zhicheng's dark face, making it look even darker. He nodded in panic, "Yes, I have."

Aunt Wang looked at Zhan Zhicheng's expression and smiled happily.

It was obvious that this guy was attracted to the girl at first sight, look how blushing he is.

As for the woman, since she asked someone to inquire about him, I think she must have liked Zhicheng, otherwise, why would she go to the trouble of inquiring about him?

Aunt Wang smiled so much that she couldn't stop. "I think, while the weather is good these few days, you and your elder brother can renovate your house and use it as a wedding room..."

Zhan Zhicheng was stunned for a moment. Although he felt a little embarrassed, he still corrected himself: "... Aunt Wang, if it works out, I, I will go to the Li family's sister's house and I won't have to decorate the new house."

Mrs. Wei was suddenly much more satisfied with Zhan Zhicheng.

Anyone who can proactively explain his or her own merits to others must be a person with an open mind.

But Aunt Wang didn't react at once.

No need to decorate a new house?

Does the little girl from the Li family have such low requirements?

Although she was partial to the Zhan family's children, Zhan Zhicheng's house was indeed a bit shabby...

Aunt Wang was thinking about something when she suddenly froze.

Wait, what does "go to Li's sister's house" mean?

Aunt Wang recalled that when she mentioned the matter of "marrying over" to the mother-in-law of the eldest daughter of the Li family, the old sister had a puzzled and embarrassed look on her face...

Aunt Wang was startled, her throat was a little dry, and she suddenly pulled Zhan Zhicheng aside in a hurry and asked in a low voice: "Zhicheng, tell me the truth, are you getting married, or..."

Zhan Zhicheng smiled awkwardly: "Yes, it's a home visit..."

“No way!!!”

Aunt Wang let out a roar of anger.

Even Mrs. Wei, who was brushing away a half-fallen leaf from Xingxing's head, was startled.

Aunt Wang was so excited that she could no longer hold back her voice and shouted, "Zhan Lao Er! How can you marry into a family that you don't want to marry into? When your father was alive, he was a very respectable man. Now you're marrying into another family that you don't want to marry into, what would your father think in heaven?!"

Zhan Zhicheng didn't expect Aunt Wang to be so opposed. He was a little at a loss. He wanted to calm Aunt Wang down, but he didn't know how to persuade her.

"I, I'm not good at speaking, I can't say... Aunt Wang, you, don't get excited..." Zhan Zhicheng wanted to calm Aunt Wang down and went to pull her arm, but Aunt Wang became even more excited. She shook off Zhan Zhicheng's arm and walked towards Mrs. Wei angrily.

Mrs. Wei never expected that the person who was chatting with her happily just now and calling her "old sister" all the time would now look at her with a look of fire.

Aunt Wang said angrily, "So the Li family wanted Zhicheng to be the son-in-law? No, how can they treat him like this?"

Mrs. Wei's face also fell.

How does Aunt Wang speak?

She knew that the people in the countryside would not accept their own sons marrying into other families, but it was not the Li family who forced Zhan Zhicheng to be a son-in-law, was it?

The Li family has been clearly looking for a son-in-law for the past six months, and they haven't hidden it from anyone else.

Besides, in her opinion, the Zhan family didn't say anything, so why did the neighbors jump out to oppose it?

Zhan Zhicheng was also anxious, and he kept pulling Aunt Wang's arm from behind: "Aunt Wang, you, don't say that. Yes, I am willing."

Aunt Wang angrily shook off Zhan Zhicheng's arm and said, "You don't want to do this! You are young and don't know what is good for you! When your father died, he asked us neighbors to take care of you and your widow! Now you are going to marry into someone else's family, are you worthy of your father?"

Zhan Zhicheng's face turned pale and he was a little panicked.

Aunt Wang opened fire on Mrs. Wei again: "I'm telling you, go tell the Li family that the second son of the Zhan family will never come to their house to be a son-in-law!"

…

Old man Yu was smoking a pipe and waiting for Mrs. Wei at the entrance of the village.

But then Mrs. Wei came back with Xingxing on her shoulder, with a grim look on her face.

Old man Yu was startled: "What's going on?"

Mrs. Wei let out a sigh of relief and complained to Old Man Yu, "...I went to the Zhan family to take a look. The neighbor of the Zhan family is sick. He controls everything and even prevents the Zhan family kid from marrying into the Li family as a son-in-law."

Old Man Yu was confused: "Neighbor? No, what does a neighbor like her have to do with the marriage between the Zhan and Li families?"

"Isn't it?" Mrs. Wei scolded, "As a relative, I can only help to inquire and can't interfere. She is so arrogant!"

"Grandma, don't be angry, don't be angry." Xingxing shook Grandma Wei's hand.

Seeing her granddaughter being so well behaved, Grandma Wei felt relieved and her expression softened a bit.

Old Man Yu was originally going to persuade his wife, but when he saw that his granddaughter had already coaxed his wife, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, go back and talk to the eldest son's wife, and let her tell her family."

When Mrs. Wei got home, she immediately told Li Chunhua about this.

Li Chunhua was also very surprised: "No, what do you mean? The neighbors of the Zhan family don't agree?"

She thought it was ridiculous and couldn't sit still. "...Mom, how about I go back to my parents' home tomorrow?"

Mrs. Wei agreed: "Go back and see what's going on. It's no small matter for your parents to ask for money from Donghua. You can stay there for a few more days and see what happens."

Li Chunhua nodded repeatedly and hurried back to her parents' home early the next morning.
