Chapter 188 You should hug Xingxing more and enjoy her blessings

The room was silent.

It is true that what Aunt Wang said... is so shocking.

The second oldest brother, Zhan Zhicheng, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he thought of his third brother, Zhan Zhixin, he closed his mouth stiffly.

The eldest brother, Zhan Zhide, looked ridiculous: "Your...niece? ...Xia Guihua?"

He had always thought that Aunt Wang was so strongly opposed because she had been their neighbor for so many years and couldn't bear to see Zhicheng marrying into someone else's family. She felt that it would bring shame to the Zhan family to have a son-in-law.

Who would have thought it was for this!

Aunt Wang said loudly, "Yes! I won't hide it from you now. My niece has already talked to Zhixin, and she doesn't care about your betrothal gifts. When Zhicheng finds a wife, she will marry him!"

Auntie Wang stepped forward, took Zhan Zhicheng's hand, and said earnestly, "Zhicheng, listen to what I'm saying. It's so embarrassing to be a son-in-law. Don't worry. I'll find you a good girl in two days!"

Zhan Zhicheng blushed and pulled his hand out of Aunt Wang's: "No, no need..."

Aunt Wang also frowned: "You kid! ... Let alone other things, you are the second brother, but you only care about your own life and don't care about your brother? Let me tell you, there are not many girls like my niece who don't want any betrothal gifts and are only interested in their husbands!"

Zhan Zhicheng's flushed face slowly turned pale.

He looked as if he was hunched over in a daze.

Not to mention Zhan Zhicheng, even Li's mother felt that if this happened in their family, he would probably be in a very difficult situation.

Mother Li looked into the inner room subconsciously and felt a little worried.

The girl obviously fell in love with Zhan Zhicheng, and now it looks like she is going to be sad.

Zhan Zhide suddenly frowned and said, "No, I don't agree to this!"

Aunt Wang's eyes widened: "What do you mean? What are you not agreeing to?"

Zhan Zhide spoke a little too quickly and coughed twice: "... Why should Zhicheng's marriage give way to Zhixin? I'll go back and ask Zhixin what he means!"

Aunt Wang was incredulous. She said, "No, Zhide, although our two families have been neighbors for many years, there are still some things I should say. Don't you know what your family is like now? ... Your mother is still paralyzed in bed, and your wife ran away because she couldn't stand the hardship. It's all thanks to the heavy rains last year that relieved the drought and the crops grew in the fields. Otherwise, who knows which of you three brothers would have starved to death! Given the situation, my niece is willing to marry your third brother without a betrothal gift. Your whole family should be secretly smiling!"

"You still don't agree?!"

Although Aunt Wang didn't say it directly, the expression on her face clearly said, are you crazy?

Zhan Zhide just shook his head and said nothing.

Aunt Wang said angrily, "Then go back and ask Zhixin and see what he says!"

Having said that, she left.

Zhan Zhide coughed a few more times and didn't look well.

Zhan Zhicheng stood there, looking at everyone and hunching over a bit.

Although Li's mother was a little indecisive, she was also a kind person. When she saw the patches on the clothes of the Zhan brothers were all crooked, she knew how difficult their life was.

She didn't blame the Zhan brothers, but just sighed: "What do you think we should do about this marriage? ... You know, we only have one daughter, Donghua, who is still unmarried, so we must find a husband for her."

Li Chunhua's brows were deeply wrinkled.

She said that given the situation at the Zhan family, if her sister wanted to marry into the family, she would definitely not allow it. She might even break Donghua's legs.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about Aunt Wang’s niece…why did she want to marry him without even asking for a betrothal gift?

The room fell into an atmosphere of unspeakable silence.

Xingxing was young, so she only understood more than half of it.

She couldn't help but look back at the old door in the inner room.

The old door had opened a crack, and Li Donghua was standing there.

Xingxing could see clearly that Aunt Donghua's eyes were red.

After a while, the old door creaked open and Li Donghua walked out.

Zhan Zhicheng was obviously a little flustered, his lips moved, but he looked at Li Donghua, not knowing what to say.

Li Donghua asked directly: "Do you, the Zhan family, still want to complete this marriage?"

Zhan Zhicheng blurted out: "It will come true naturally!"

Li Donghua's face looked a little better, and she said to Zhan Zhicheng, "Then you should go home quickly and discuss it with your brother. Give me a definite answer tomorrow."

She glanced at Li's mother and said, "If that doesn't work out, I'll ask my mother to find me another one right away."

Zhan Zhicheng panicked: "Don't...don't, I, I..."

Zhan Zhide felt sad when he saw his brother like this.

He naturally knew that his second brother and the youngest daughter of the Li family had a relationship. Besides, he had carefully observed the Li family. Although the Li family was not a very wealthy family, the two elders of the Li family were easy to get along with. After his second brother married into the family, they would certainly treat him as their own son, and his second brother's life in the future would definitely not be bad.

...When I get back, I must persuade the third brother!

Zhan Zhide had an idea in mind, and said to Li's mother: "Auntie, I will go back with my second brother and ask questions. I will definitely come back to give you a reply tomorrow."

Mother Li had a good impression of the eldest son of the Zhan family and nodded repeatedly: "Okay."

The two Zhan brothers are gone.

Li Donghua sat on the edge of the kang with a unhappy look on her face, not knowing what she was thinking.

But Li's mother sighed and said, "...I don't know if this marriage can be successful in the end."

After seeing the performance of the two Zhan brothers, Li Chunhua was no longer so anxious.

She carried Xingxing to the kang and let her sit on it. She smiled confidently and said, "Mom, don't worry. With Xingxing here, there will definitely be a good result. If the matter with the Zhan family succeeds, it's fine. If it doesn't, what does it mean? It means that God has a better plan behind it."

Mother Li looked at Xing Xing doubtfully, then looked at her eldest daughter: "...Really?"

Li Chunhua was full of confidence: "How could it be false? Mother, fourth sister, let me tell you, our Xingxing..."

When Li Chunhua told her about what happened after Xingxing came to Yu's house, Li's mother and Li Donghua both widened their eyes and said, "There is such a thing!"

Mother Li and Li Donghua already liked Xingxing, and now they looked at Xingxing with even more passion. Mother Li even hugged Xingxing in her arms and said, "Oh, I have to take advantage of our little Xingxing's good fortune."

After hugging her, she pushed Xingxing back into Li Donghua's arms: "My dear, hug Xingxing more and share in her blessings."

Li Donghua hugged Xingxing tightly in her arms without any hesitation, and even rubbed her face against Xingxing's little face.

Xing Xing smiled awkwardly.

Li Chunhua was full of confidence: "Mom, little sister, just wait and see!"
