Chapter 1117 Stepfather 28
The story of Yuanchun saving Cao Hui from the river was spread by Boss Zheng. At first, everyone in the village praised Yuanchun for doing a good deed and calling her a hero.
However, gradually, people in the village began to spread the rumor that Yuanchun, a virgin girl, picked up Cao Hui in the water and the two had physical contact.
Some people say that Yuanchun has lost her innocence.
Some people say that Yuanchun wanted to seduce Cao Hui and deliberately jumped into the river to save people. Otherwise, why didn't she call on others to save Cao Hui, but jumped in to save him herself? Wasn't it just that she wanted to have physical contact with Cao Hui so that she could marry him?
Others said that they had seen Yuanchun and Cao Hui talking many times.
Others said that Yuanchun and Cao Hui had already been dating in private for a long time.
As the story spread, Yuanchun became Cao Hui's object.
Yuanchun always ignored the rumors from outsiders, but someone came up to her and teased her, "Yuanchun, when are you and Huizi going to get married? We are waiting to attend your wedding."
Yuanchun was confused, "Little girl, Huizi and I have nothing to do with each other, why are we getting married?"
The little girl pouted and said, "Why doesn't it matter? You two are hugging each other, and your innocence is gone. If you don't marry Huizi, who will want you?"
"Just hugging, and your innocence is gone?" Yuanchun's eyes widened in astonishment. "A few years ago, there was a flood in the south, and the soldiers went to the flood-hit areas to rescue people. They pulled people out of the water. If you have to get married just by hugging, then those soldiers must have married a hundred or eighty wives each."
The little girl argued, "How can you compare with the soldiers? They are saving lives."
"I was trying to save him, too." Yuanchun's eyes were red with grievance, "Do I have to watch Huizi drown without saving him just to keep my innocence?"
"Aiya, no one said you shouldn't save Huizi, it's just that you two have had physical contact, and if you don't marry Huizi, no one will want you."
"If no one wants me, then I won't marry. The Xu family raised me, and I have to take care of this home for my father." Yuanchun said pitifully.
"Girl, why don't you know what's good for you? We are helping you. How can a woman stay single for her whole life? If you don't marry Huizi, not only will no one want you, you will also be laughed at. Even if someone wants you, this matter between you and Huizi will be your fault in the future, and your life will not be easy."
"Yes, Yuanchun girl, we are doing this for your own good."
"Yuanchun, Huizi is such a good guy, why don't you like him?"
"That's right. You're an orphan, and the Cao family may not be interested in you."
……
A group of middle-aged women surrounded Yuanchun and talked to her.
Yuanchun cried weakly, "I...I won't marry. I want to marry a son-in-law so that my father can continue the Xu family line."
"What, you still want to marry into the family?" someone exclaimed.
Someone mocked, "If a mouse goes into your house, it will come out crying. Who would want to be your son-in-law?"
"That's right, Yuanchun, don't be upset. Hurry up and marry into the Cao family now. Huizi will never treat you badly."
"I, I still want to marry a son-in-law."
