Yang Yuelan was shocked by Grandma Chu's words. "You what? You're Chu Xiang? Do you think I'm a fool or a deaf person who can't even tell who you are? " She pushed Grandma Chu away forcefully and took two steps back. Because she was too angry, she couldn't stop coughing. "You, cough, cough, your Chu family is too much! I can't let this matter go just like that. Cough, cough, cough, let's wait and see! "
"Hey! Yuelan, don't be like this. " Grandma Chu hurriedly called Li Yuezhen and Chu Lan's mother to stop her. She said anxiously, "We can talk about this. Our Chu family knows how to repay kindness. We don't dare to forget that the old man was saved by Yin Xu. This debt of gratitude must be repaid. I'm still waiting for us to become in-laws. There's no need for a betrothal gift. I'll prepare a dowry for the child. Look … this Chu Lan … "
Chu Lan's mother knew that Old Madam didn't care about Chu Lan at all. Her reputation was more important than marriage. She hurriedly interrupted, "Sister-in-law, this Chu Lan is really going to study in a university. Yin Xu needs someone to take care of her now. Even if Chu Lan goes over, she can't take care of her. She's a good child and has a lot of good fortune. Look, even rabbits are running into her arms. We can't hinder her from becoming successful, right? To be honest, if you really want someone to take care of Yin Xu, Chu Xiang is just right … "
Li Yuezhen couldn't take it anymore. She frowned and said, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean? Are you saying that my Chu Xiang can be arranged by you? As her mother, I haven't said anything yet. You can't push my Chu Lan out for your Chu Xiang, right? "She had to give a dowry even if she didn't have a betrothal gift. She wouldn't be happy if she couldn't get a single benefit.
Yang Yuelan almost fainted from anger when she saw their charity, disdain, and refusal. She pushed them away fiercely and turned to leave. She shouted, "I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone as shameless as your Chu family. Who cares about your family?!"
When she shouted, the neighbors all looked around the courtyard. Grandma Chu's expression changed again and again. She glared at her daughters-in-law. "What are you two playing at? Why did the two of you mess up such a good thing? Chu Lan must marry over. Eldest daughter-in-law, take Chu Lan with you now and chase after her. Give her to me. Don't spread rumors outside. "
"Grandma." Chu Lan walked out and held Grandma Chu's hand with a smile. "I've been reviewing my homework with Song Zhiqing recently, and my grades are much better. I'm very confident that I can get into a university in the provincial capital. You don't have to pay tuition fees at the university, and you even get subsidies. If I go to the provincial capital to study at the university, I can bring money home. If I were to marry into the Yin Family, you should know what kind of family they are. They might even take things from our family to supplement them, and we won't be able to get any benefits. When that time comes, Chu Xiang won't be able to get married. We don't have a single college student in our family. "
"Why not? In two years, Daxin will be admitted to a university. "Li Yuezhen muttered unhappily.
Chu Lan smiled and said, "That's right. Then I'll go to the provincial capital first. When I get familiar with him, won't I be able to take care of him? Second Aunt, if I don't go, do you want Chu Xiang to take the college entrance exam? Her grades were so bad last time, and she can't get in. Plus, with her face … Will the school accept her? Don't scare others. Look at her these days. She obviously wants to rely on Daxin and let Daxin support her. Isn't it good to hurry up and marry her off? "
Li Yuezhen was attracted by the picture she painted. Moreover, Chu Xiang was really disobedient. She kept asking Chu Xin, her younger brother, to take care of her, which really made her very angry. She hesitated. "Then you don't have to marry into the Yin Family. Just verbally reject it. Chu Xiang is educated, and she's a good girl. Isn't it good to find a widower and ask for a betrothal gift? "
Grandma Chu snorted coldly. "You have to be careful. If you don't give the Yin Family a daughter-in-law to shut their mouths, do you want to shut them up with money? That's fine. You'll pay for Yin Xu's medical expenses. You can't just do nothing and let outsiders criticize our family. This favor must be repaid. "
"I don't have money." Li Yuezhen quickly refused and lowered her head with a bitter face. "Then whatever. I don't have money to prepare a dowry. Mom, if you want to give me a dowry, you decide. I'm going to feed the chickens."
Li Yuezhen then left, afraid that the old lady would ask her to pay. The old lady was very angry. She turned around and saw Chu Lan and Chu Lan's mother were also about to leave. She patted the table and said, "Stay here! Chu Lan, let me ask you. Just now, you and Song Zhiqing … Song Yang? Isn't he dating Chu Xiang? What's going on between you two? "
Chu Lan said calmly, "When did he date Chu Xiang? We just know each other and he taught me questions a few times. Now he's teaching me questions. We're going to take the college entrance exam together. His family is in the provincial capital. When I go there, I won't be unfamiliar with the place. Besides, I've been very lucky recently. I'll definitely get in. "
She wasn't lying. They were going to take the college entrance exam together, but this "together" was purely for reference. Song Yang's family was indeed in the provincial capital. Couldn't he take care of the people he knew? However, in Grandma Chu's ears, it was no different from the two of them dating. It was simply the two of them discussing moving to the provincial capital together.
Chu Xiang was going to marry the person Chu Lan liked before, and Chu Lan was going to marry the person Chu Xiang wanted to date before. What kind of mess was this? Grandma Chu opened her mouth and wanted to scold, but when she saw the rabbit in the rabbit cage, she swallowed her words.
This eldest granddaughter was really lucky. Grandma Chu was still very superstitious. Seeing was believing. Her eldest granddaughter was more beautiful than the last. She brought back countless rabbits, wild eggs, and fish and added many good things to the family. What if Chu Lan was always so lucky? Wouldn't it be too good for the Yin family if she gave it to them? It was good to go to the provincial capital. She could live a good life and add things to the family. Even if she didn't add anything, when Chu Xin came over in the future, how could she not help? Song Yang's family was in the provincial capital.
After thinking about it this way, Grandma Chu felt that it was the best way to settle this matter by giving Chu Xiang to the Yin family as a way to repay their kindness. Anyway, Chu Xiang was disfigured. No one would be stupid enough to marry a disfigured woman and give betrothal gifts. She couldn't bring any help to the family, let alone help her brother. Chu Xiang and Chu Lan couldn't be compared at all.
After making a decision, she waved her hand to let Chu Lan and the others go back to the house. She took a basket with six eggs and covered it with a cloth. Then, she went out to the Yin family. On the way, when someone asked her about it, she smiled and gave Yin Xu some eggs to nourish his body. There were really people who praised her, saying how good she was as Yin Xu. She felt so guilty that others really thought that the Chu family was grateful.
Chu Xiang let the Heaven and Earth Mirror follow Grandma Chu all the way to the Yin family and ate a bunch of melon seed shells. She didn't know much about the Yin family. She only knew that Yang Yuelan was in poor health and couldn't do farm work. She had to take medicine every day. Yin Qiuwen and the original Host were in the same school, but they weren't in the same class. She seemed to be doing well.
As for Yin Xu, he used to be a soldier. Later, he retired and took care of all the work in the family. He always took good care of his mother and sister. Many girls in the village liked him because he was tall, strong, and smart. He rarely smiled and his eyes seemed to be able to see through people. He was different from the other people in the village. He was full of hormones and was very attractive.
The original Host liked elegant scholars, so she never paid attention to Yin Xu. Chu Xiang naturally didn't know about Yin Xu's situation. The scene she saw in the Heaven and Earth Mirror was the first time she saw Yin Xu.
When Yin Xu heard Yang Yuelan and Grandma Chu arguing, he limped out with the help of a thick tree branch. Yang Yuelan saw him and hurriedly went to help him. "Aiyo, go back and lie down. How can you move your leg?"
Yin Xu held her shoulder. "I'm fine, mom. Don't worry. Take it easy. Drink some water first."
Yin Xu handed a bowl of water to Yang Yuelan. Yang Yuelan's eyes were red. Grandma Chu awkwardly took a stool for Yin Xu and smiled. "Sit down. Don't touch your leg. Yuelan, your Yin Xu is so filial. He's such a good child. I like him. I really want him to be my grandson-in-law. "
Yang Yuelan said angrily, "I respect you and call you auntie. But what did you do? You were the one who asked me to marry you. How many girls like my Yin Xu? What's wrong now? Seeing that Yin Xu's leg is injured, you changed the person? Is there anyone who does that? The whole brigade is disfigured by your Chu Xiang. What do you mean? "
"Yuelan, Chu Xiang is a good girl. She's much more likable than Chu Lan. I don't mean anything else. Isn't it because Chu Xiang can take care of Yin Xu if she doesn't take the exam? She can also take care of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law. Isn't that a good thing? Chu Lan is bent on taking the exam. I can't force her. I have no choice. "
"I'm not saying that Chu Xiang is bad. I'm just saying that your way of changing people is too disgusting!"
Yin Xu patted his mother's shoulder and said to Grandma Chu seriously, "Please go back. I never intended to agree to this marriage. The Yin family and the Chu family will never be related by marriage. It was just a coincidence that I saved Grandpa Chu. I used to be a soldier, so I can't leave him in the lurch. It's my bad luck that I broke my leg. It has nothing to do with Grandpa Chu. Let's end this matter here. We don't need the Chu family to do anything, and we don't want to be related by marriage. My mother's health isn't good, so I won't keep you any longer. "
"Yin Xu!" Yang Yuelan kept tugging at Yin Xu's clothes to stop him. In the end, it was useless. Yin Xu was done for.
Grandma Chu was a little surprised. Thinking about it, it was true. Previously, so many girls liked Yin Xu. Although Yang Yuelan had some intentions of getting married, she let Yin Xu make the decision in the end. The two families really didn't have a good relationship. However, if they didn't want to be related by marriage, they would have to give money. If they just let it go without giving anything, wouldn't the Chu family be shameless?
Compared to giving money, it was more appropriate to marry Chu Xiang. Grandma Chu smiled shamelessly and said, "Well, you should think about it carefully. I really like Yin Xu. Chu Xiang is sensible and cultured. In the future, when the scar fades, she won't look bad. The two of them will definitely lead a good life. I'll go back first. Let's discuss this matter before deciding. "
Yin Xu wanted to say something, but Yang Yuelan hurriedly stopped him and glared at him. He sent Grandma Chu away with her low breasts.
When Grandma Chu returned home, the first thing Chu Lan did was to sound her out. After learning that Grandma Chu really wanted to marry Chu Xiang, she turned around and smiled with relief. Yin Xu was even more miserable than her in her previous life. He didn't live a down-to-earth life. Instead, he got a big truck to transport goods and earned a lot of money. In the end, he was unlucky enough to encounter a landslide and disappeared.
In her previous life, she gloated over Yin Xu's misfortune. He didn't like her and refused to marry her. He moved to the county to live a good life. In the end, he didn't live a good life. In this life, it was even worse. Yin Xu broke his leg before he could earn money. This time, he probably couldn't drive a big truck anymore. He could only be an old farmer in the village. In this way, she indirectly saved Yin Xu's life. It was better to live than to die. Yin Xu should be grateful to her.
Chu Lan happily went to feed the rabbit. She was very satisfied with the development after her rebirth. After dinner, she took the piece of paper that Song Yang gave her and went to look for Chu Xiang. She pretended to ask, "Chu Xiang, what do you think this is? This is the question written by Song Yang. He explained it to me for a long time today. I've already figured it out. If you don't understand it, I'll explain it to you. "
If the original owner heard this, she would definitely feel uncomfortable. However, Chu Xiang didn't feel anything. She just glanced at the question on the paper and said: "Do you still need to explain such a simple thing? Your revision is too slow. You can't pass the college entrance exam at this level. "
Chu Lan's face changed: "If you know it, how can you get such a low score? Who are you trying to fool? "
"I'm just confused by the fever. Who doesn't get sick at times? I'll go to school in a few days. I'm sure I can pass the college entrance exam. Chu Lan, you don't have to worry about me. I know what I'm doing. "Chu Xiang lay on the kang and covered herself with the quilt. She looked at her:" Is there anything else? I'm going to sleep. I'm so sleepy. "
"How can you go to school with your face like this?" Chu Lan stared at Chu Xiang's face.
Chu Xiang was puzzled: "There's no rule that says I can't take the college entrance exam if I'm injured. Can't I just stick the gauze on my face? It won't be scary if I block it. "
Chu Lan pursed her lips. In her previous life, Chu Xiang was good at studying. She got into a better school than Song Yang. She thought that Chu Xiang would hide and not dare to show her face when she was disfigured. She would cry and lose her confidence. However, Chu Xiang didn't care about her face at all. It seemed that it was impossible for her to marry into the Yin family. Maybe she could really get into the college in the provincial capital.
If she got into the college, the college would give her subsidies. How could her family let Chu Xiang get married? Li Yuezhen would strongly oppose it. What about her? If she didn't get into the college entrance exam, her grandmother would definitely force her to marry into the Yin family.
Chu Lan felt a sense of crisis for the first time after her rebirth. The uneasiness in her heart became heavier and heavier. She turned around and walked out of the door while holding the paper in her hand. She had to think carefully about how to ensure that she would leave with Song Yang.
At this time, it was already dark. Chu Lan chose this time to come and give a lecture. She wanted to use the dark as an excuse to end the lecture. Everyone had already returned to their rooms to rest. Chu Xiang quietly got down from the bed and put a pile of melon seed shells at the door. She lit the door curtain with a lighter.
She lay back on the kang and closed her eyes to sleep. Everyone in the Chu family wanted to sacrifice her and end this matter peacefully. Were they dreaming?
