I thought that after reading the IOU, Liu He would let go of Lin Jinlian. Even if he didn't, he wouldn't be as obsessed as he is now.
Who would have thought that after reading the IOU, Liu He not only did not give up the idea of marrying Lin Jinlian, but instead felt even more distressed.
Seeing that Liu He seemed to be bewitched by Lin Jinlian, Village Chief Liu was furious and walked away immediately.
Liu He is also a tough guy. Since his father ignores him, Liu He also ignores Village Chief Liu.
In this way, the father and son were deadlocked for several days. Finally, under the persuasion of the wife of the village chief Liu, the father and son "put aside their past grudges" and started to talk to each other.
"No, I've met Miss Lin from Shangbei Village. She's a nice girl. How could she come to ask for money before the due date?"
"Besides, Miss Lin has opened a grain store in town, so she doesn't need a few dozen taels of silver for an emergency."
When the wife of the village chief Liu heard this, she asked hurriedly.
"Why is that? Can you please finish your sentence in one go? It makes people feel anxious."
Thinking of his son's useless appearance, Village Chief Liu glared at his wife in annoyance.
"He's a good son of yours! He's as stubborn as a donkey. He doesn't like so many girls, but he just fell for the girl from the Lin family."
"I don't know what's so good about that girl from the Lin family? She's so obsessed with him that her parents don't even recognize her."
After hearing the complaints from Village Chief Liu, Village Chief Liu's wife said angrily.
"Haha, it's good that I gave birth to a son, but I couldn't have given birth to this son by myself."
"Now stop blaming your son and tell us what's going on!"
"What else could it be? It's just that Lin Jinlian doesn't like your son!"
After hearing this, the wife of the village chief Liu said in disbelief.
"That's impossible? I see that Lin Jinlian and our Liu He usually have a good relationship. I haven't heard that Lin Jinlian looks down on our Liu He."
"Bullshit! What you see is just the surface!"
When Village Chief Liu thought of what he saw in the teahouse in the town, he couldn't help but swear.
"Lin Jinlian is very clever. She's just treating your son as a backup, but she's actually been secretly looking for new targets! Now she's found a target who's even better than your son. Do you think she'll be as attentive as before?"
The wife of the head of Liu Village: ...
What did the head of the family say?
The daughter of the Lin family treated her own son as a backup? And now she has found a target who is better than her own son?
How is this possible?
Because of Lin Jinlian, my son and I have had several conflicts. Now they just want to pretend nothing happened! But I should ask myself if I agree or not!
"Boss, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course it's true! How could it be false when I saw it with my own eyes?"
"Didn't someone come to me today and ask me to go to town with the IOU that the Lin family wrote in Shangbei Village? I saw with my own eyes a young nobleman standing on Lin Jinlian's body."
Who do you think that noble young man is?"
The wife of the head of Liu Village shook her head.
"It's the County Magistrate's son! The County Magistrate's son, tell me, with our family's conditions and background, how can our Liuhe compare to the County Magistrate's son?"
The village chief's wife was stunned after hearing this.
The county magistrate’s son? With Lin Jinlian’s looks, how could the county magistrate’s son be interested in her?
"No way? Is the county magistrate's son blind? Could he possibly be attracted to Lin Jinlian? Even if he was, would the county magistrate and his wife have no objection?"
Village Chief Liu shook his head.
"That's not what we should be thinking about. We should be thinking about how we can make our rebellious son change his mind!"
After saying that, Village Chief Liu rubbed his temples with a headache.
"Dad! Mom! What are you talking about? What about the county magistrate's son?"
Village Chief Liu saw Liu He suddenly appear at the door.
"Liu He? Why are you here? When did you come back?"
Liu He shook his head.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry about when I came back. Tell me, what were you talking about just now?"
Liu He looked at Village Chief Liu and his wife expressionlessly.
Village Chief Liu looked at his wife.
"Son, are you thirsty? I'll make you some tea."
After the village chief's wife finished speaking, she wanted to run into the house.
"Mom! I'm not thirsty, I just want to know what you were talking about just now. Don't change the subject!"
Liu He spoke as he approached the village chief and his wife.
"Alright, alright, Liu He will know about this sooner or later. Since he's asking now, just tell him."
The wife of the village chief Liu glared at the village chief and muttered.
"Why don't you tell me? I'm the one who did all the bad things."
"I'll tell you what I say!"
The village chief gathered his thoughts and spoke.
"Someone came to see Dad today and asked him to go to town with the Lin family's IOU. Dad didn't know what it was about at first, but after arriving in town, he found out that the Lin family had paid back the money."
Liu He still didn't say anything, just kept looking at Village Chief Liu.
"Dad was surprised at first. The Lin family was always in the village, and I had never heard of them getting rich. It wasn't until Dad saw the man standing next to Lin Jinlian that he realized. The Lin family has really climbed up the social ladder!"
After listening to this, Liu He looked at Village Chief Liu with an expressionless face.
When Village Chief Liu saw his son like this, he couldn't bear to say anything more.
But when I think about it, after my son knows the truth, maybe he will give up that woman Lin Jinlian?
Besides, a good man has ambitions. How can it be that your son is always thinking about a woman who only knows how to use him?
"Liu He, do you know who that man is?"
After Village Chief Liu finished speaking, he didn't wait for Liu He to answer and directly cut off Liu He's retreat.
"That man is the county magistrate's son! Our family can't compare!"
After saying this, Village Chief Liu lowered his head.
It was as if he was blaming himself for not creating a good background for Liu He.
When Village Chief Liu said this, Liu He didn't say a word. Only after Village Chief Liu finished speaking did the expression on Liu He's face change.
"Dad, you didn't deliberately make up such a lie just to prevent your son from marrying a girl from the Lin family, did you?"
Village Chief Liu was originally feeling somewhat guilty, but when he heard his son's words, he was filled with anger.
"You little bastard, what nonsense are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?"
Liu He had originally held out some hope, but after hearing what Village Chief Liu said, he was completely disappointed.
Yes, as the village chief of Xiangyang Village, my father always keeps his word and never tells lies.
"Dad, I don't believe it. I want to go and ask in person to see if it's really what you said."
When the wife of the village chief Liu heard what her son said, she looked at him with heartache.
"I don't know if the Lin family has returned yet, son, you'd better not go."
