Qin Siyue's words couldn't have been more heartbreaking. The bloody truth shattered Qin Wanxia's heart into eight pieces.
Tian Guiren happened to wake up and took Qin Siyue's words to heart. He was so angry that he bent over and coughed, unable to speak for a long time.
"Oh, uncle, you're awake. Don't worry, don't worry, Sister Wanwan is fine, just calm down!"
Qin Siyue's little hands slapped Tian Guiren on the back, "pa pa pa", it was quite painful.
However, this was exactly what Tian Guiren needed. He exerted force and coughed out a mouthful of blood.
Tian Guiren felt much better and thanked Qin Jianye with a hoarse voice: "Third brother, thank you. If it weren't for you, Wanwan..."
"Don't talk so much, drink some porridge first!" Qin Jianye helped the man up and half held him in his arms.
Tian Wanwan hurriedly handed the porridge over. Qin Jianye felt the bowl and found it was warm. He handed it to Tian Guiren's mouth and said, "Hey, you'll have the energy to talk only when you're full."
Tian Guiren looked at the rice in the bowl in shock, thinking he was hallucinating: "Third brother, this..."
"Eat it, it's not a dream. Eat the sunset too. Don't starve yourself."
The couple had been hungry for so long that they were already starving.
After gulping down two sips, I felt full.
Qin Jianye put the bowl aside and let them rest for a while before drinking.
"Tell me what you think. Mrs. Li hasn't left yet, so it's obvious she's not one to give up easily."
Qin Wanxia said with tears in her eyes: "I want to separate the family."
Tian Guiren was silent for a while, then said something that shocked everyone: "I want to break off the relationship. I want to go down the mountain."
Qin Jianye was not surprised. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Have you thought about it? Once you make a decision, you can't regret it."
Tian Guiren nodded: "My father, my eldest brother, my nephew, none of them are easy to get along with. Even if we split up, they won't let me go. What's more, Wanwan is too big."
Yes, the girl is old enough, it's time for her to get married. But there are only a few families in the mountains, and after what happened, no one would be willing to offend the old Tian family just to marry Wanwan.
Qin Jianye said "hmm": "Very good."
Seeing Qin Wanxia's uneasiness, he smiled and comforted her, "Life down the mountain isn't that difficult anymore. We've received relief grain, and it rained a couple of days ago, so we're already preparing for spring plowing. I believe things will get better and better."
Besides, how many years do you think you can stay in the mountains? People are social beings, and it's fun to be together.
Yamashita Technology is advancing by leaps and bounds. If we don’t keep up, we’ll be left behind.”
Qin Wanxia was still hesitant: "But we haven't been down the mountain for many years. What are we going to do down there?"
"Farming, right? There's really not much else to do these days besides farming. It's hard to find a job, and you don't have a city hukou.
After I came down the mountain, I asked the team leader to let me settle down in our Qingshan Brigade. From then on, I will be a farmer peacefully.
Life may be hard, but we don’t have to worry about anything.”
Qin Wanxia thought about it and began to look forward to life at the foot of the mountain.
Chen Yunwei also lobbied: "Just like my brother-in-law said, Wanwan has no future if she stays in the mountains, so it's better for her to come down.
There are plenty of good guys down the mountain, and they won’t mind that Wanwan almost married a fool.
When I have children in the future and send them to school, I might even be able to find a job if I can find a good policy.”
Chen Yunwei's words were absolutely true. If he went down the mountain now, he would have a good time in twenty years.
Opportunity is fleeting.
Tian Wanwan looked at the couple expectantly, and saw them look at each other and make up their minds.
However, it is not so easy to get Tian Daguang to let them go.
Qin Jianye was not in a hurry. He happily chatted with his sister and brother-in-law about things in the team for a while before slowly going out to watch the show.
The sun was setting, the moon was high in the sky, and Mrs. Li refused to leave because she didn't get a satisfactory answer.
The others wanted to go back, but were deterred by the benefits promised by Mrs. Li, and stood in the night to support her.
"There are only three options. One is to return Li Xiaoni to me. The second is to marry your three granddaughters to my son. The third is to compensate my Li family with 200 yuan."
"Big sister, you're being so unfair! It was only a hundred yuan just now, how come it's become two hundred in the blink of an eye? No matter how capable your little girl is, she's not worth that much!"
Mrs. Li refused to listen: "If it's not worth it, just return it. We didn't force you to buy or sell it.
Anyway, you must give me an answer today, otherwise, I will shout all over the mountains that you betrothed your granddaughter to my son!
"You, you, we are both women, why do you have to ruin the girl's reputation!" Tian Daguang was so angry that he almost died. This old lady Li wanted to kill his granddaughter!
As long as the rumor spreads, no one cares whether it is true or not, everyone has the same idea - this is a girl who almost married a fool.
By then, not only would his Tian family lose face, but his three granddaughters would have no choice but to marry old widowers and become stepmothers.
No wonder she gave birth to three idiots. Mr. Li has a vicious mind. This is retribution!
Seeing that Li Po was not afraid of boiling water, Tian Daguang could only compromise: "Okay, I promise you."
Mrs. Li's eyes lit up: "Marry your granddaughter to my son?"
"You wish!"
Tian Daguang glared at Mrs. Li and said, "Li Xiaoni, stay. Our Tian family will raise two hundred yuan for you. This matter is over. No one is allowed to mention it again."
Mrs. Li rolled her eyes and wanted to increase the bet.
But Tian Daguang interrupted: "If you make trouble again, I will take Li Xiaoni away. With two hundred yuan, you can find a wife anywhere."
Mrs. Li thought about it and agreed. At worst, she could just go down the mountain to buy someone. It was better than getting nothing.
"Okay, give me the money and I'll go home."
"We don't have any at home right now. Come back and get it in three days!" Tian Daguang thought. He had to risk his reputation and borrow from someone. He didn't know if he could get enough.
But Mrs. Li refused: "I don't trust you. What if you change your mind or lie and refuse to pay?
I'll be waiting here. When you have enough money, when Xiaoni and Mantun consummate their marriage, I and the villagers will leave."
Tian Daguang took a deep breath and asked his son and daughter-in-law to go to the village to borrow money.
I thought that if I pieced it together, I could get at least a hundred or eighty yuan.
The villagers looked guilty and said, "It's not that I don't want to lend you the spoon, but we just don't have any at home. We are mountain people, we only hunt, so there is no income!"
This was half true and half false. The people in the mountains really didn't make much money, but after hunting, they would secretly bring the game down the mountain to sell.
So I have some savings, more or less.
I only traveled dozens of miles to earn a few dollars. I didn't want to lend it to the Tian family, fearing they would never pay it back.
The Tian family was angry, but they didn't dare to quarrel with the villagers. After a round of wandering, they came back and told Tian Daguang about it, and Tian Daguang's face was ashamed.
At this time, Qin Jianye said happily: "Grandpa, congratulations, Guiren and his wife are awake!"
What? He woke up? The fever was so severe, and it went away just like that?
Not only did the old Tian family not believe it, even Mrs. Li and the people watching outside did not believe it.
