Song Wen's voice was filled with sadness, "I don't want to be angry, but..." Before he finished speaking, his voice began to choke again.

Song Cheng was frantically trying to comfort him, "Dad, don't be angry, your health is the most important."

"Dad, please don't get so angry that anything bad happens. If you get angry, what will mom and I do in the future?"

"Dad, my sister abandoned our family. Our family still loves me. I...I won't go to school. I'll go to work."

The father and son talked a lot, but they didn't get to the point. Song Li was scratching her ears and cheeks, but she didn't dare to ask Song Zhi directly what kind of evil thing he had done.

Song Li raised her head only after she heard that Song Cheng was not going to study and was going to work.

Song Wenxiao's eyes were red from crying. She slammed her big hands on the table and glared at Song Cheng, "What did you say? Say it again?"

Song Cheng stubbornly refused to let the tears fall. He stiffened his neck and said, "I said, I don't want to study. I want to go to work."

Song Wen raised his hand and was about to hit Song Cheng in the face, "I'm going to beat you to death, you little bastard. Why did I save money all these years to support your education? Is it because you have to drop out of school and go to work before you even finish junior high school?"

Song Li, who was sitting on the stool like sitting on pins and needles, could no longer sit still. Seeing that Song Wen's slap was about to fall on Song Cheng's face, she quickly spoke out to stop him, "Uncle Song, don't do it. Calm down."

If this slap landed, how could she still have the nerve to stay in the Song family? How could she still have the nerve to mention the new identity?

When Song Li shouted, Song Wen's palm stopped a few centimeters away from Song Cheng's face.

Song Wen's hanging heart finally settled down.

He almost couldn't continue the performance, but fortunately the fish took the bait.

Song Cheng, who had his neck stiff, breathed a sigh of relief. He had seen Song Wen being beaten before and knew the power of his slap. Fortunately, Song Li spoke up.

"Uncle Song, calm down. Song Cheng was probably just saying that in anger. Don't take it personally." Song Li quickly tried to smooth things over.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Song Wen gave Song Cheng a look, and Song Cheng understood and continued the performance.

"I didn't say that out of anger. I really don't want to study. My family is in such a state. How can I continue to study?"

Song Li looked at him expectantly and asked him to continue. What happened at home? She was so curious.

Who would have thought that when it came to the critical moment, Song Cheng would be like a taciturn person, unwilling to say a single word.

Song Li: "..." Fortunately, this is not her brother, otherwise she would have slapped him long ago.

I’m so good at getting stuck!

Song Wen sat back on the stool in a frustrated manner. He wiped his face and said firmly, "Even if our family is so poor that we can't even afford to eat, I will support you to go to school, son. Only by going to school can you have a future and our family will have hope."

Song Li nodded in agreement. In this era, studying is indeed the only way out, especially for children in rural areas.

"Where did our family get the money to support my schooling? All the money in our family was taken away by Song Zhi, and some was given to the Fu family. How are we going to explain this to her family?" Song Cheng asked with a tearful face.

Song Wenxiao was like a frost-bitten eggplant, sitting on the stool with a gloomy look on his face, not saying a word.

After a while, he said, "There will always be a way."

Song Cheng, "We don't have time to think of a solution. The Fu family will come to our house the day after tomorrow to pick up the bride. She is my sister..." When it came to the critical point, this damn boy got stuck again.

Fortunately, Song Li understood something.

Combining what she had heard before and after, if her guess was correct, the daughter of this family was named Song Zhi, and she ran away with the family's money because she didn't want to get married.

Today Wang Chunhua went to the town to look for Song Zhi.

Song Li really didn't know what to say about this matter. After all, she was just an outsider. She continued to lower her head and pretend to be calm.

Song Wen stole a glance at Song Li's reaction from the corner of his eye, and seeing that she lowered her head again, he gritted his teeth and decided to give it a try first.

"Xiao Song, I heard from Song Cheng that you are 22 years old this year? Are you from Xu's family?"

Song Li had a bad feeling in her heart, but she was also secretly excited.

She raised her head and shook it honestly.

Song Wen's eyes flashed with a bright color, and his tone was a little anxious, "Then how about the person that Uncle Song introduced to you?" After he finished speaking, he realized that he was too anxious. He quickly made up for it, "The person that Uncle Song introduced to you is not ordinary. His family is from the imperial capital, and his family members are all high-ranking officials. Of course, he is very good. He is a soldier. At the age of 25, he is already a battalion commander..."

Song Li laughed in her heart, why would your daughter not want to marry such a good family and instead run away?

Does she look like a 3-year-old child?

Song Li looked thoughtful and said nothing.

Song Wen carefully observed Song Li's reaction. Seeing that she didn't refuse directly, he felt that there was still hope. He sighed and said helplessly, "Xiao Song, I won't hide it from you. In fact, the person I'm introducing to you was originally introduced to my daughter.

Who knew that my little girl was so stupid that she was fooled by the wild boy outside with just a few sweet words. "

The real reason why Song Zhi ran away naturally could not be told to Song Li, so Song Wen and Song Cheng worked together and came up with such an excuse.

Song Wen felt that he was not talking nonsense. It was possible that the damn girl Song Zhi fell in love with the poor boy outside and stole the money and ran away.

Otherwise, why would she not be willing to accept such a good marriage offer from the Fu family?

Song Li was thinking about the truth of Song Wenxiao's words and her current situation. If it was true as Song Wenxiao said, that Song Zhi ran away from home because of the man she liked, then the person she was originally going to marry sounded good.

His family was from the imperial capital, he had a good family background, and he was a soldier. He was already a battalion commander at a young age. This was indeed a perfect marriage, and it was not that she could not marry.

If only she could find a new identity for herself through marriage.

As for life after marriage, Song Lisi was not worried at all. If the two could get along well, they could live a good life. If not, they could just get divorced.

No one can get divorced without stipulating marriage.

Song Li has always been a very decisive person, and she quickly made a choice in her mind.

However...

"Uncle, let me think about it carefully." She said she wanted to marry him, but she had her conditions.

Song Wenxiao was relieved when he heard this. If he was willing to consider it, it meant he had hope.

But they didn't have time to think about her.

The day after tomorrow the Fu family will come to pick up the bride.

Moreover, they didn't want the villagers to know that Song Li was marrying off instead of Song Zhi.

There are still a lot of things to rearrange later.

"Xiao Song, if uncle hadn't been forced, I wouldn't have made this request. Xiao Fu is a really good kid. By the way, there's a photo of him at home. I'll get it for you now." Song Wen stood up from the stool and was about to walk to the door.

Thinking about seeing Fu Yanci's photo, perhaps Song Li would not hesitate.

Song Wenxiao was absolutely confident in Fu Yanci's appearance.

Song Li's eyes lit up when she heard that. Photos are good, at least she can tell what the other person looks like from the photos.

She is a photographer by profession and can see things in photos that others cannot see.

What a coincidence!

As soon as Song Wenxiao left, Song Cheng came over to lobby.

"Sister Song Li, I think it's a good thing for you to marry into the Fu family. If you marry into the Fu family, you won't have to worry about your stepmother plotting against you in the future. With the Fu family as your support, not to mention your stepmother, no one can bully you at will."

After a pause, he leaned close to Song Li's ear and whispered, "Sister Song Li, the family background of the Fu family will scare you to death."

Song Li raised her eyebrows, pretending to be interested, "What family background?"

"The Fu family's ancestors and grandchildren have all been soldiers for generations. My father told me that the old man of the Fu family was even a general."

Song Liruo nodded as if thinking about it.

If Song Cheng had not lied to her, this would indeed be a great marriage.

“How did your marriage with the Fu family come about?” The Song family looked at this big shot who didn’t look like someone who would know a general.

Song Wenjing told Song Cheng about the agreement made by the two families more than ten years ago.

He told Song Li the truth.

After hearing this, Song Li made a plan in her mind.
