Chapter 1149 Stepfather 60
After eating and drinking, Shen Yi did not wash the dishes immediately. He stared at Yuanchun and asked in a deep voice, "Ah Chun, there are more and more men in the village who are interested in you. What are your plans?"
Yuanchun drank the last mouthful of soup, put down her bowl and chopsticks, wiped her mouth, and said, "I told you a long time ago that I won't marry, I will only take a son-in-law."
"Then I will marry into your family." Shen Yi said.
Yuanchun was so surprised that she almost choked on her saliva, "Shen Yi, are you serious?"
Shen Yi hummed, "As long as you don't despise my identity."
Shen Yi is the son of a high-ranking official, but he is in trouble now, like a dragon in shallow water and a tiger in the plain. But one day, he will return to the mountains and the sea.
In terms of status, she is not worthy of Shen Yi.
It’s not that Shen Yi is not worthy of her.
Yuanchun smiled and said, "As long as Grandpa Shen and the others agree, you will be my son-in-law."
"I will convince them." Shen Yi affirmed.
"I hope you don't regret it."
"I will never regret being with you."
……
The two of them hung out and ate together every few days, and there had long been an air of ambiguity between them. However, Shen Yi had always been concerned about his identity and had not confessed his feelings to Yuanchun. However, his every move told Yuanchun that he liked her.
Yuanchun also had a good impression of him, so she deliberately told others that she wanted to find a son-in-law. In fact, she had someone in her heart, so she wanted to cut off the thoughts of those who were targeting her.
This trick was indeed practical, and many young men in the same village who had a crush on her gave up the idea of marrying her. However, there were always some greedy and lustful guys who wanted to take advantage of Yuanchun, and Hu Laosan was one of them.
Not only was he greedy for Yuanchun's beauty, he was also greedy for money, food, and houses.
This time, the three brothers of the Hu family suffered such a great loss at the hands of Yuanchun that they all hated Yuanchun and wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge on her.
However, before this opportunity came, the news that Yuanchun was going to marry Shen Yi spread throughout Hongqi Village. Shen Yi came to propose marriage himself and wanted to marry into the Xu family. The wedding date was set for the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month.
Yuanchun agreed to the marriage. She gave the Shen family 20 yuan as a betrothal gift and 100 kilograms of grain as a betrothal gift.
When the Hu family heard the news, Hu Lao San was so angry that he smashed a bowl and said, "Damn it! The person I was eyeing was actually stolen by an outsider."
Snapped……
Mother Shen slapped him on the back of his head and cursed, "You damn boy, how dare you break the bowl? It's free. There's only one bowl per person in the family, and we don't have any extra ones. Your bowl is broken, so you have to eat with your hands from now on."
"Mom, it's just a bowl. How can your son be more important?" Hu Laosan rubbed the back of his head, which was in pain. "Your son and his wife ran away. Why don't you help your son get them back?"
"Bah, if you let that unlucky star into our house, I'm worried that she will bring me death." Mrs. Hu warned her youngest son fiercely, "Stay away from that unlucky star in the future, and don't come home with bad luck."
Hu Lao San said angrily, "Mom, why do you look down on Xu Yuanchun? She is capable, hardworking, and pretty. She also has the Xu family's house. If I can marry her, I will also have a house when we split up the family in the future. I don't need to divide up the family's house, which can save the family a lot of money."
"Is life as important as a house?" Mrs. Hu said angrily, "She was born a lonely star. She killed her father, mother, and stepfather. She will kill her husband and children in the future. Do you want to be killed by her?"
"Mom, you are superstitious. Superstition is not to be trusted."
