Chapter 10 If you don’t do it for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth.
Lin Chen looked at the people around him, and no one dared to look down on him. If a person does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. The moral ones are immoral, and the immoral ones have nothing to fear.
As for intercepting the Jia family, he had no psychological burden...
"You're crazy. Did you sell Qin Huairu to your Jia family? I told you guys that you're immoral! It was obviously me who knew her first. Huairu, come here and tell everyone what's going on."
Qin Huairu then stepped forward and looked at the other person: "Lin Chen and I have known each other for half a year. He went to the back mountain of our village to collect herbs. I accidentally encountered a wild boar while cutting grass, and he saved me at that time... We fell in love with each other. Since I was under 18 years old, we agreed that he would marry me when I turned 18..."
After seeing Qin Huairu's performance, Lin Chen immediately stepped forward and did not give Jia Zhangshi a chance to refute. He had to control public opinion.
"Everyone knows that the normal betrothal gift in the countryside is five yuan, so what's the meaning of your Jia family raising it to ten yuan? It was obviously you who wanted to cut me off first, and now you are blaming me. Let's let everyone say who raised the price first. I won't eat steamed buns and steam my breath. What's wrong with you offering ten yuan and I offering thirty? If you have the money, why don't you increase it? You either really want to marry me or you are deliberately causing trouble for my Lin family..."
Lin Chen and his wife sang the same tune, and Jia Zhang was speechless. It doesn't matter what they say! Who knows if you have encountered any wild boars... You have already obtained the marriage certificate, so even if you find Qinjiazhuang now, you are still right!
Helpless, Jia Zhang stamped her feet in anger: "I... my Jia family will never let you go. We all know who is cutting off the advantage. You are just a double act planned in advance..."
Even if Jia Zhang knew, what could she do? She couldn't explain the matter clearly now. But most people in the hospital believed Lin Chen. It was really that Jia Zhang behaved badly in the hospital.
Lin Chen glared at Jia Zhang with disdain and said, "Tsk... Wife, let's go home and ignore her. I'm not done with her yet!"
At this time, the three guys squatting in the distance were stunned. Lin Chen’s wife and Jia Dongxu’s wife were not on the same level at all!
They had seen Ma Lan before, and now when they looked at Qin Huairu, the three naughty kids were stunned.
"Thirty yuan is a great value for the betrothal gift. The Jia family is really blind not to raise the price."
"Yeah, I think so..."
Lin Chen glared at the three of them again and warned them: "If you keep looking around, I'll punch you in the stomach. Believe it or not, no dog is old enough to learn to look after a woman."
Shazhu, Xu Damao, Liu Guangqi and others were so frightened that they quickly looked away.
Qin Huairu smiled and followed Lin Chen to the backyard.
……
After everyone left, Xu Damao, Sha Zhu and the other two ran to Jia Dongxu.
"Oh my god, thirty dollars is worth it! Why doesn't Brother Dongxu raise the price?"
Jia Dongxu's hands were still shaking with anger. It wasn't that he didn't raise the price, but he didn't even see the person. If Ma Lan and Qin Huairu stood together, he would choose Qin Huairu even if it cost 100 yuan! It's also a pleasure to watch her every day without working...
Jia Dongxu's joy at picking up a new bicycle was now shattered...
Everyone was still whispering about how the Jia family was nothing but a bunch of crap and actually wanted to steal someone's love and do something that would steal their love...
Jia Zhang couldn't stand the pointing and scolding, so she dragged her son home. It was impossible to tell who was right and who was wrong now, as they had already obtained the evidence. And her family had also given a betrothal gift to the Ma family...
backyard
Qin Huairu covered her mouth and smiled as she entered the room: "You are so bad, you actually intercepted the Jia family."
Lin Chen picked her up and said, "Do you like bad guys like this?"
Qin Huairu blushed: "Well, Jia Zhang is indeed an evil mother-in-law. You didn't lie to me... I don't regret liking you, a big bad guy..."
The hormones of the two people surged, and Lin Chen kissed her directly...
Qin Huairu had never experienced this before and would not respond to her man at all.
The pearly teeth were quickly pried open by Lin Chen's tongue...
A minute later Lin Chen hurriedly stopped the invasion.
"You don't know how to breathe!"
Qin Huairu breathed heavily nervously, and her high point rose and fell.
"How can my little girl know this... You hate that you are so skilled. Did the city women take a lot of pictures of you?"
Lin Chen stopped teasing her and slowly put her down.
"Men are born to fight. I will teach you tonight. Now let's decorate the new house."
After the incident, Qin Huairu lowered her head shyly: "Hey, I'll clean it up."
……
West House in the Central Courtyard
Jia Dongxu couldn't stop crying after returning home. He grew up with his mother and has become a mama's boy.
Seeing her son sad, Jia Zhang felt bad. It would be fine if they didn't compare, but once they did, no one could bear such a blow. So Jia Zhang began to comfort her son...
"Don't worry, Dongxu. I will definitely avenge you. An orphan cannot survive in the orphanage without his elders. He is the one that the deaf old lady is ostracizing the most... I will find a way to avenge you."
"Mom, you have to get back at me. Lin Chen is too much of a bully... And that Qin Huairu, you have to make her regret not choosing our Jia family."
Jia Dongxu now not only hates Lin Chen, but also wants to slap Qin Huairu a few times to vent his anger.
Of course, Jia Zhang also hated Qin Huairu, so she started to comfort her son again.
"What's so good about a country girl? She'll be the same after ten years. Ma Lan is more practical. She only makes more than 200 yuan a year. Qin Huairu only knows how to spend money and can't earn a dime. Don't you think so?"
After hearing what his mother said, Jia Dongxu remembered what his senior brother said that it was the same even if they covered themselves with a quilt, and now he felt a little better.
Now the mother and daughter can only comfort themselves, what else can they do? They are already a legal couple.
"Mom, Ma Lan will be married tomorrow. People in the courtyard will definitely compare her to Lin Chen's wife. You must suppress the gossip in advance! Otherwise, how can I hold my head up..."
Jia Zhang slammed the table.
"If they dare to talk nonsense, I will scold them to death. You can go and get the certificate without any worries. No one will mention this matter in three days at most. In this era, good looks cannot make a living. You can't become a concubine or a prostitute in the Eight Great Hutongs. Earning money and getting a household registration are the most important things. What can a girl with a rural household registration do!"
……
The three naughty kids at the door of Shazhu started to discuss what to do at night to listen to Lin Chen's plan.
"Shazhu, will you come to the backyard tonight to listen to Lin Chen and Qin Huairu's wedding?"
Shazhu's eyes were wide open just now, and he wants to go over and take another look even now, let alone at night.
"You must listen. Let's go tonight at 8 o'clock. It's really a good cabbage that is eaten by a pig... How can Lin Chen be worthy of Qin Huairu."
Liu Guangqi chuckled: "Okay, let's go home and eat first. Come over later and we'll do it together. I wonder if Brother Dongxu will go?"
Xu Damao looked in the direction of Jia's house and said, "Come on! We almost had a fight just now, how could Jia Dongxu be in the mood to eavesdrop? But if we listen to Lin Chen today, we will have to listen to Jia Dongxu tomorrow, so we must not let Jia Dongxu know. Otherwise, what if he is on guard against us tomorrow?"
Sha Zhu patted Xu Damao on the shoulder and said, "Sha Mao is right. Guang Qi, don't go and talk nonsense with Jia Dongxu about this, understand?"
"understand!"
……
backyard
After the couple tidied the kang, Qin Huairu changed her clothes and cooked.
Lin Chen grabbed her hand
"Let's go out to eat instead of cooking tonight. You didn't have any good food at noon because it was all served to us men. I'll take you to eat hotpot at Donglaishun..."
Qin Huairu was shocked when she heard that they were going to eat out again and it was going to be a hotpot.
"That's such a waste of money. I can cook really fast so let's save some money!"
Lin Chen put on the new hat and scarf he had just bought for her.
"You just said you would listen to me! Now you don't listen to me. Why should we save money when we don't need it?"
Qin Huairu felt warm and sweet in her heart as she watched her man dressing her.
"Hey, we can celebrate together. I've never had hotpot before!"
So the couple locked the door and headed straight for Donglaishun.
The deaf old lady next door was waiting to see if she could get some delicious food from Lin Chen's wedding, but it looks like her plans for tonight will be ruined again.
After walking out of the door, Qin Huairu asked curiously.
"Lin Chen, why was there such a commotion in the house on the left when we left the house just now?"
Lin Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry about Liu Haizhong beating the kids. You have to be careful of the deaf old lady who lives on our right. A few years ago, she had a dispute with our grandfather because of the division of the main house. Since then, she has disliked me. Now that grandfather has passed away, she wants to exchange houses with us, but I rejected her. So just don't get along with her..."
Lin Chen told Qin Huairu the general situation of each household in the front, middle and back.
"Hey, I remember it all."
……
Seven o'clock in the evening
The couple walked out of the Donglaishun Hotpot Restaurant after having a good meal and a few drinks.
"Lin Chen, let's take a walk! I'm so full and need to digest it."
Lin Chen pushed the bicycle with one hand and held his wife with the other.
"Yes, I eat a lot too."
The young couple walked side by side towards home.
"Lin Chen, after hearing what you said, our family is not simple! The Yan family doesn't want so many children, but they just keep getting pregnant. And the Yi family doesn't have any... The mistress of the He family died early, and the pillar of the Jia family is gone. And the deaf old ladies of the Xu and Liu families..."
Lin Chen thought, of course it's not simple, the courtyard at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang is really amazing. It's like a courtyard that never changes but always has new residents...
"System, you can't take me away after I get married and have children here. Otherwise, I will fight you to death..."
[It doesn't exist. There are endless parallel worlds. One world, one timeline]
"That's pretty much it!"
