Chapter 177 If it were you, would you marry me?
"Yes, I'm not worthy. Your family is so powerful and awesome. Whoever wants to marry into your family can go. Anyway, I, Li Dong, don't care. Also, my sister's leg has been cured. Stop scolding her." Li Dong was also puzzled. When did he say that he wanted to marry into another family? Although their family conditions were poor and his parents died early, he was their only son. Even if he was useless and incompetent, he would not marry into another family's family.
The villagers of Ku Shui Village are still quite united now. Although there are occasional conflicts among the villagers, if they really encounter bullying from other villages at their doorstep, everyone is still united.
At this time, there were many villagers at the door of Li's house.
"He Zheng and Er He are here! You've arrived just in time. Look at this. Don't you think it's outrageous? The Zou family wanted Li Dong to marry into their family, but Li Dong refused. Now, Zou Yan has come to their house and started cursing. This is the first time I've seen such a thing in my life."
An aunt in the village said this with a smile.
The other villagers all had similar opinions. They were just there to watch the fun. It was normal for young men and women to talk about their partners.
But Zou Yan acted as if Li Dong would be committing a serious crime if he didn't agree.
Erhe smiled and greeted the villagers. Because of the previous egg incident, everyone had a good impression of her. Thinking of the close contacts between Li Dong and his sister and them, she took the initiative to make way.
I saw only the gate of Li's yard.
Li Dong and Li Xi stood on one side, and Zou Yan stood opposite them. There was also a young girl beside her, who probably came with her.
Zou Yan was still scolding Li Dong in front, and when she heard someone calling He Zheng's name, she subconsciously looked over.
The reason why she came to make trouble was related to He Zheng. It would have been fine if the He family had rejected her condition, but Village Chief He was also an official. Then there was the issue of Erhe's background. She was the daughter of the commander, and they couldn't afford to offend her.
So Zou Yan also changed her mind. After all, there are only a few people who are deeply in love and do not change their minds. Moreover, He Zheng has been married for more than half a year. A girl of Zou Yan's age should naturally consider marriage. That's why she came up with this idea to marry a man from a poor family into her family. This would naturally have its benefits.
If a man comes from a poor family and has no power, he can be suppressed by her and she will never suffer any grievances in her life.
After much thought, it just so happened that Li Dong met the requirements.
Zou Yan felt that with her conditions, it would be a great honor for the Li family to be able to get Li Dong to marry into the family, and Li Dong should be grateful to her. However, who knew that when she asked a matchmaker to bring this up, she was directly rejected by Li Dong. Zou Yan's noble self-esteem could not stand the blow, so she led her sisters to rush over to ask for an explanation.
Zou Yan felt a little strange when she suddenly saw He Zheng at this time, after all, she had liked him before.
He Zheng didn't even look at her, but just looked at Li Dong, "Can you handle it?"
The communication method used is only used between brothers.
Li Dong replied, "It's not a big deal. If I don't marry the Zou family, can they kidnap me? I've heard of local tycoons forcing concubines to marry, but I've never seen a family forcibly abduct a man. Even if the Zou family has mountains of gold and silver, I, Li Dong, don't care about them."
He doesn't have to marry a wife. If the conditions are not met, then he won't marry. There is a living example in the village. What happened to Sun Hongying, who Zhao Yang married?
The one who wears the green hat is really tall.
Look at his brother Zheng, he married his sister-in-law and they live a prosperous life. What do you call this?
When you marry a wife, you must marry the right one and a good one.
If you can’t marry a good one, it’s better not to marry!
Li Dong had already thought it through and was not afraid of offending Zou Yan. What could the Zou family do to him for such a small matter?
"Listen to what you're saying. If you don't know, you might think your family is well-off. With someone like you, if you don't marry into the family, how can you expect a good girl from another family to marry you? Wake up, stop dreaming!"
The tougher and more contemptuous Li Dong's attitude was, the more uncomfortable Zou Yan felt. She couldn't swallow the rejection of a man who was inferior to her in every aspect. Even if he refused, it should be her who refused, or Li Dong would be spineless and say some nice words to beg her to let her go of her resentment.
Erhe actually didn't want to bother with this kind of thing. It was just a matter of a quarrel, and Li Dong's attitude was already there.
Could it be that the Zou family could really kidnap someone?
Besides, with Zou Yan's arrogant attitude, who would be willing to marry into her family?
The days of humiliation are still to come.
"Cousin," she didn't say anything and planned to call Zou Zhou to go first, but she didn't expect Zou Zhou to speak. Zou Zhou walked in front of Zou Yan.
She didn't even know Li Dong, so of course she shouldn't interfere in this matter. But when she heard these words and Zou Yan's attitude, she thought of her mother forcing her to get married.
Although the genders are different, aren’t the natures the same?
They are all forced to get married.
How come you can't express your own opinion on such a big matter as marriage, but have to listen to others?
Zou Zhou didn't know where the inexplicable anger came from, and he said to Zou Yan: "Didn't you hear him say that he didn't want to marry into the family? Are you happy about forcing someone to marry into the family?"
Zou Yan was stunned by her cousin's sudden fate. She didn't even know that Zou Zhou and Erhe knew each other. She looked back and forth between the two of them with puzzled eyes. Although they were cousins, they didn't interact much in normal times. They only contacted each other during festivals or when there was something happening in the clan.
"Are you sick? You're on my side, but you're not speaking up for me and you're helping an outsider?"
"If you speak reasonably, of course I will help you, but don't you think your behavior is excessive? They lost their parents when they were young, and their sister has a bad leg. Their life is already very hard. It's fine if you don't help them, but why add insult to injury?" Zou Zhou felt that Zou Yan was wrong to do this, and perhaps she was taking the opportunity to vent her dissatisfaction.
Erhe noticed something but didn't stop it. Now Zou Zhou was feeling angry and it would be good for him to vent.
As for Zou Yan, it was her fault from the beginning.
You pick on the weak and pick on the weak. The Li brothers and sisters work so hard and live such an inspiring life, but you insist on bullying them.
Li Dongze was stunned. He didn't know this girl at all, and she had quarreled with Zou Yan for him?
Li Dong was confused about the situation and looked at He Zheng.
He Zheng put his hands in his pockets. His wife didn't say anything, so he knew nothing.
You can't offend your daughter-in-law's friends.
"I say, Zou Zhou, do you know the situation? Their family has no parents and no money. Look at his sister, she was a cripple before. I don't know how much money she spent on medical treatment. Maybe she is in debt. Look at their house, it leaks when it rains and when it is windy. You don't know when the house will collapse. Which girl is blind to marry him under such conditions?" Zou Yan said sarcastically, looking down on the Li family.
Zou Zhou clenched his fists. "How do you know there aren't any? Do you think you can represent all the girls?"
Zou Yan shot back, "I just know it. Otherwise, what else could it be? Would you be willing to marry me if it were you?"
