Chapter 75 Resignation
Village Chief's House
Liu Guixiang looked at Jiang He with a face full of disappointment and anger, "Second brother, how could you be so foolish? Knowing that Yu, the educated youth, was a troublemaker, you still went into the water to save him?"
Jiang He scratched his head. "Mom, I can't just stand by and watch that scoundrel ruin someone's reputation, can I?"
Liu Guixiang never liked the educated youth. She used to like Wen Li quite a bit, and her opinion of the educated youth had changed somewhat. However, Wen Li not only tricked Jiang Yue'er once, but also damaged Jiang Yue'er's reputation last time. In addition, Guo Caixia stole Jiang Yue'er's boyfriend. Now her impression of the educated youth is extremely bad.
"Don't you even use your pig brain? Yu Zhiqing has always been arrogant and haughty; how could she possibly marry you obediently?"
Jiang He had seen Yu Shuang from afar a few times before. Yu Shuang was already quite pretty, and today he had hugged her, which stirred his heart and made him want to have something to do with her.
"Mother, things have already come to this, you should go and propose marriage first! Yu Zhiqing isn't that kind of person."
Liu Guixiang saw through Jiang He's little scheme at a glance. Jiang He was already of marriageable age, and she had long had a daughter-in-law in mind. Who knew that an educated youth would beat her to it?
She was so breathless that her disgust for Shuang reached its peak. She hadn't even entered the house yet, and she had already bewitched her son. What would happen once she actually entered the house?
The village chief could easily see through his wife's thoughts. Things had come to this point; there was no room for reconciliation. "Alright, don't be angry anymore. Things are already like this. Go to the commune tomorrow to buy some things, and go to the educated youth compound to propose marriage!"
Seeing the village chief's expression, Liu Guixiang's eyes welled up with tears of anger.
"You just propose marriage like that? Don't you consider my feelings at all? My eldest son's wife is enjoying a life of luxury in the city, never thinking about us old folks. And now my second son's wife is a real handful. I've worked so hard my whole life, and I just wanted to enjoy the blessings of having a daughter-in-law, but I'm afraid that's impossible for me in this lifetime. Waaah~"
The village chief sighed, "Don't think too badly of things. Yu's family treats her very well; she receives a monthly allowance. Even if she doesn't do anything, she can support herself!"
"Do absolutely nothing? Am I marrying a daughter-in-law, or am I bringing home a tyrant?"
The village chief's face turned red from the shouting, and he kept giving Jiang Yue'er meaningful glances. Jiang Yue'er didn't like Yu Shuang to begin with, after all, she had always coveted Brother Chen, and now, well, she had become her sister-in-law.
Isn't this just making things difficult for her?
But that's fine, now Yu Shuang won't have the face to bother Brother Chen anymore.
"Mom, calm down. It's not worth getting sick from getting angry. We'll be the ones who suffer in the end!"
Liu Guixiang glanced at the village chief. "My daughter is so thoughtful. I just feel sorry for your second brother. Is Yu Zhiqing the kind of person who can manage a household? I don't want her to marry into the family and then have to serve her!"
"Yu Zhiqing has a bad temper because she was spoiled by her family. You can teach her a lesson after she marries your second brother, right?"
Liu Guixiang felt that her daughter made sense. After Jiang Yue'er's persuasion, she was not so angry anymore. Things had already come to this point, so she could only accept her fate. She glared at the village chief and Jiang He, which was considered a compromise.
"I'll go propose tomorrow after work!"
Seeing that his mother had finally relented, Jiang He silently gave Jiang Yue'er a grateful look, completely unaware of the deeper meaning in Jiang Yue'er's words.
Educated Youth Home
When Guo Caixia returned, her face was wrapped up like a rice dumpling. Thinking of the wounds on her face, her desire to kill Yu Shuang reached its peak. Yu Shuang…
When everyone saw Guo Caixia return, they all went up to ask her a few words of concern. Looking at Jiang Chen's gloomy face, Guo Caixia felt a pain in her heart that was more painful than the pain on her face.
As her heart ached, she seemed to grow to like this feeling. So what if Jiang Chen didn't like her? He wasn't her man yet. She would drag Jiang Chen to get their marriage certificate at the beginning of the year. Anyway, he would never be able to get rid of her for the rest of his life.
Upon hearing that Guo Caixia had returned, Yu Shuang came to the front yard with malicious intent. The two of them were filled with hatred when they saw each other. Li Hong was afraid that the two of them would fight again, so she quickly pushed the unwilling Yu Shuang back to the back yard.
Su Hao felt a headache coming on just looking at Yu Shuang. "You'd better not provoke her. Haven't you already suffered enough from her mistreatment?"
Su Hao didn't look down on Jiang He, but the facts were clear: Yu Shuang's family wasn't exactly well-off, but they were doing quite well. Both her parents worked, and her brother and sister-in-law also had jobs. The whole family treated her very well.
Originally, she could have returned to the city in a year or two, with her family arranging another partner for her, under the guise of marriage. Now, if she marries Jiang He, she might have to stay in the countryside for the rest of her life.
He had only been in the countryside for two months when he realized how hard farm work was. He wouldn't want to stay in the countryside for the rest of his life!
Now that Yu Shuang is in this state, it's safe to say she has no hope of returning to the city. Right now, he and Deng Wei are still around, and they can still take care of Yu Shuang if she suffers any injustice. But once they have a chance to return to the city, given Yu Shuang's personality, without them watching over her, she'll only be tormented.
"But my life is ruined. I can only stay in the countryside. Can't I at least vent my anger?" Yu Shuang's eyes instantly reddened. Thinking of her parents, she felt extremely sad.
Su Hao sighed. If they had stayed in the countryside for a longer period of time, they would have had a reason to bring Yu Shuang back to the city. It had only been two months. If they returned to the city now and were reported, Yu Shuang's parents and her older brother and sister-in-law's jobs might be affected.
"Go call home tomorrow and tell them about this!"
"I understand!" Yu Shuang glanced at the distant mountains, her tone unusually calm, her former arrogance gone, as if she had resigned herself to her fate.
Yu Shuang had truly accepted her fate. No matter how immature she was, she didn't want to burden her family. Her parents, brother, and sister-in-law had all treated her very well, and she couldn't be ungrateful.
Besides, Jiang He is quite good-looking, and he is the village chief's son with a decent family background. There's nothing wrong with marrying him.
Today's events have spread throughout the village again. Regardless of whether Jiang He did it to save someone, Yu Shuang has lost her innocence. Several gossipy aunties went to the village chief's house to ask Liu Guixiang when she planned to propose marriage.
No matter how dissatisfied Liu Guixiang was, she maintained her composure in front of outsiders, determined not to become a laughingstock.
"I'll go prepare the betrothal gifts tomorrow. Once we've decided on the wedding date, everyone can come and join the celebration!"
"Your second son is lucky. That Yu Zhiqing is beautiful and from a dual-income family. Jiang He is the one who got the better deal by marrying her!"
Liu Guixiang almost lost her smile, feeling that this person was mocking her.
As it turns out, she was really overthinking it. He was sincere. If the commune wasn't keeping a close eye on things, and if something like what happened two years ago happened again, how could all the young men in the village sit still?
Who wouldn't want to marry one of those newly arrived educated youths!
They're all beautiful and wealthy. If you marry one of them, you can get a huge dowry!
