Chapter 181 It's Done
Although she returned home, Erhe still felt uneasy.
Standing in the yard without going in.
He Zheng saw that his wife was upset, so he stood behind her and accompanied her. "Wife, Li Dong is actually a good person. Even if things don't work out, we two are still here to watch over him. If Zou Zhou really wants to follow him, it won't necessarily be a disadvantage."
As for what He Zheng thinks, he definitely hopes for the best for Li Dong.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Li Dong to do it, but this matter couldn't be made public.
It is indeed difficult for Li Dong to find a wife in his current situation. It is not that other girls are too fussy, but the main reason is the situation of his family.
Our family's financial situation is decent, and we really don't want our daughter to suffer.
"I know Li Dong is not a bad person."
She was even confident that she could make life easier for the Li family in the future. However, marriage was a big deal, and Zou Zhou and Li Dong were not familiar with each other before. A hasty marriage was not a good choice after all. The Zou family didn't know how to make a fuss. These were all very realistic problems.
She was worried about whether Zou Zhou could bear it.
Let’s talk about the Li family.
After making sure that the city girl in front of him was not joking, Li Dong came back to his senses from his shock, "Comrade Zou, there's no need for that. If it's about the quarrel with Zou Yan this morning, she was just saying it in anger. You don't have to take it seriously."
He can't harm the girl.
"It's not because of Zou Yan," Zou Zhou felt that there was no need to hide this from Li Dong, so she told him about how her family forced her.
Li Dong cursed after hearing this, "I thought it was pitiful enough for my brother and I to be without parents, but I didn't expect that you'd be worse off than without one!"
He accidentally told the truth.
Zou Zhou smiled bitterly, "You're right, so what? Now that you know everything, should we get married?"
The matter has been provoked, and Zou Zhou has no intention of going back on his word.
Unexpectedly, Li Dong was thinking about something and shook his head. "Although I don't have any great skills and haven't read much, I can't take advantage of someone in distress. You said that your family is forcing you to marry a useless person. If I marry you now, wouldn't that be taking advantage of you? Let's talk to Brother Zheng and Sister-in-law and find a way to make your parents change their minds."
Li Xi really wanted to have a sister-in-law, but after hearing Zou Zhou's reasons, she also agreed with her brother's approach.
"Yes, Sister Zou Zhou, Sister Erhe is very smart. She will definitely be able to think of a solution. Let's go find her."
Zou Zhou looked at the brother and sister. She was actually a little hesitant when she thought of this method before, after all, it was giving her life to them.
But now the brother and sister have no evil thoughts at all and are both very kind people.
Zou Zhou thought, even if the Li family is poor, so what? The key is that they have good people.
Besides, there are fields and land in the countryside, and if the family works hard, they will never starve to death.
Rather than staying in that family and being exploited, it is better to go to the Li family.
After figuring it out, Zou Zhou went all out. "Li Dong, I've told you everything. Let's be frank. Are you going to marry me or not? Or do you have other girls you love? If so, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Thinking of this possibility, Zou Zhou also felt that he was impulsive. Although Li Dong was not married, he might have someone in his heart.
Then she can't force it.
"No one, no one in my heart," Li Dong said again.
Zou Zhou got anxious and stamped her feet. "What do you mean? I'm a girl, and I'm telling you this. You..."
Zou Zhou's eyes turned red when he was anxious.
She made this decision quickly in just two days, so wasn't she also nervous?
Seeing Zou Zhou's anxious eyes flushed, Li Dong's heart ached. Since the girl was so proactive, he couldn't be timid.
"As long as you don't regret it, I will marry you."
Hearing this, Zou Zhou couldn't help but shed tears without warning, not knowing whether he was relieved or what.
Seeing this, Li Xi quickly took out a handkerchief and handed it to his brother, "Brother, wipe Sister Zou Zhou."
Li Dong clumsily grasped his handkerchief, "Don't cry, my sister and I won't bully you."
Zou Zhou grabbed the handkerchief and wiped his face, "You said it, Li Dong, you can't bully me in the future. You can't bully me just because I don't have a mother's family..."
"I promise not to bully you."
Li Dong thought, what's wrong with not having a mother's family? He doesn't have parents either. However, his parents were good people when they were alive. It's a pity that they died young.
In the evening.
Erhe cooked a lot of dishes. There were many fresh fish in the river at this time of year. He Zheng went down to the river and caught a silver carp. Erhe stewed the fish head into soup, braised the fish parts, and killed a chicken. Now they actually had some money in their hands, so they didn't have to worry too much about killing a chicken.
Erhe made a big plate of chicken and put some pancakes on it. The flavor of the soup seeped into the pancakes, it was so delicious.
With these meat dishes and a few vegetables, dinner will be very sumptuous.
"Erhe, are there any guests coming to your house today?" Wang Xiu didn't feel sorry for the big rooster, but if there was only one guest, Zou Zhou, there would be too many dishes. The weather was still hot, and they would go bad if they were not finished.
"Well, Li Dong and Li Xi will come over."
As soon as Erhe finished speaking, footsteps were heard outside, followed by voices calling for help.
Li Dong, Li Xi and Zou Zhou came together. Not only that, Li Xi also held Zou Zhou's arm affectionately, looking very intimate.
Wang Xiu's eyebrows jumped, feeling strange, but he didn't think anything else about it, just thought it was just the two young people getting along.
Erhe brought out the dishes and glanced at Zou Zhou.
Zou Zhou nodded in response.
Erhe turned her gaze towards Li Dong again. Li Dong, perhaps a little frightened or something, shrank his neck, but then looked back and called out, "Sister-in-law."
He called her sister-in-law completely according to seniority, as he was not younger than Billhe.
"Please sit down. To welcome you, your sister-in-law has cooked a table full of delicious dishes." He Zheng felt sorry for his wife in such a hot day, so he was busy with a spatula.
"It's okay. Let He Zheng wash the dishes after we finish eating."
We have to work together, so He Zheng can’t be left out.
Seeing the two of them bickering with each other at the risk of their lives, and realizing that they actually had a good relationship, everyone in the room smiled.
Not long after, Village Chief He also came back. Everyone was there and sat down to have dinner.
"Uncle, aunt, I would like to ask you for a favor." Halfway through the meal, Li Dong put down his chopsticks and looked at Village Chief He and Wang Xiu seriously.
He has no parents, but something as important as marriage cannot be handled carelessly. It is better to let the elders make the decision.
"What's the matter? Just tell me." Usually, Village Chief He was very caring towards the Li brothers and sisters. Now that Li Dong took the initiative to speak, it was impossible for him to sit idly by.
"Yes, just tell us. As long as we can help, we will definitely help you." Wang Xiu was also very enthusiastic.
Li Dong first looked at Zou Zhou. Zou Zhou didn't know what he was going to do, so he blinked and showed a confused expression.
Li Dong said, "Zou Zhou and I are getting married, and I hope you can help with the preparations."
"What?!!"
Wang Xiu couldn't believe it and looked back and forth between Li Dong and Zou Zhou. Was this too sudden?
