Chapter 126 Dirty Thoughts
That said, that rich man was too narrow-minded; I heard he only took one concubine.
Qian Laoshui secretly felt sorry for the wealthy people in the town.
Seeing that his father was in a good mood, Qian Yitong, who was lying on the bed, cautiously struck up a conversation with him: "Dad, Aunt came to my house a few days ago. She said that she wanted Mom to find a suitable person for my cousin Yuemei in our village and marry her off to him."
The thought of his cousin getting married made Qian Yitong feel very uneasy.
He'd liked his cousin since childhood and even considered marrying her, but now...
Upon hearing this, Qian Laoshui immediately began to calculate in his mind.
He ignored his son and went straight out of the room to the kitchen.
"I heard your sister is looking for a marriage for her daughter? What's the point? Why not just let her marry our son? Wouldn't that be even better, strengthening family ties?"
Qian Laoshui's eyes gleamed with cunning, his face full of calculation.
"Old man, your son is already in such a state, and you still want to find him a wife?" Zhao Chunhua rolled her eyes. This man is really delusional.
Old Qian patiently explained, "That's precisely why we need to get him a wife. Once he has a wife, people won't gossip about our son anymore, and they'll think he's a normal man."
"Do you think everyone is stupid? They'll be exposed eventually."
"What's the big deal? As long as we can give birth to the baby, why worry about being exposed?"
"You old fool, are you having a stupid episode? This baby can't be conceived by just one woman."
"Is there only one man in our family?"
After hearing this, Zhao Chunhua was stunned for a long time, unable to understand what Qian Laoshui meant.
Does he mean...?
Bah! This old bastard is utterly depraved!
"You old bastard, all you ever think about are doing heinous and immoral things that defy all reason and law. You're worse than a beast!"
Old Qian let her talk, neither denying nor denying, and simply explained, "Getting a wife is for your own good. Think about it, you've worked so hard for this family for so many years. After you have a wife, you can leave all these things to her, and you can just sit back and enjoy life. Isn't that great?"
Zhao Chunhua was indeed tempted by what he said, but she immediately dismissed the idea.
She could never do something so despicable.
"We are in this state because of Li Yuemei. It is only right that she should serve our family after she married into the family."
Qian Laoshui's words stirred up the seeds of hatred in Zhao Chunhua's heart.
That's right! It's because of that wretched Li Yuemei that Yitong's family is so pitiful, and he'll have to spend the rest of his life lying in bed.
That's right! She has to atone for the sins she has committed.
Zhao Chunhua was completely convinced by Qian Laoshui and made up her mind to marry Li Yuemei into the family as her daughter-in-law.
She still has leverage over them, so she's not afraid they won't agree.
The next day, she took two jin of meat and ran from Shanxie Village to Dongyuan Village.
When she arrived at the village chief's house and explained her purpose, she was ruthlessly driven away.
"Zhao Chunhua, just give up on that idea. My Yuemei will never marry your crippled son. It's like a toad trying to eat swan meat, ugh!"
Zhao Chunxiu scolded the person and rudely pushed her out the door, slamming the gate shut behind her.
Zhao Chunhua stared at the tightly closed door, stomping her feet in anger.
Sister, since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for disregarding our sisterly bond.
He then left in a huff.
......
Meanwhile, in the courtyard, Li Yuemei heard that her aunt had come to propose marriage, and her heart sank to the bottom.
"Mother, I don't want to marry that stupid Qian Yitong! Mother—you have to think of something!"
Zhao Chunxiu was also at her wits' end and immediately shouted, "Think of a way! Do you think things are so easy to resolve now? If you hadn't been so determined to be with that scholar, would things have gotten to this point?"
"Mother, why don't we just remove the baby from your belly?" Li Yuemei pleaded.
"No! You don't know that a woman's first child is the most important. If you abort it rashly, it will be difficult to get pregnant again. As a woman, the most important thing is to be able to give birth, otherwise you will be looked down upon. Otherwise, you will never be able to hold your head high anywhere."
Zhao Chunxiu resolutely refused Li Yuemei's request. Having lived most of her life, she could understand the bitterness of not having a son to rely on.
Li Yuemei, with her rebellious spirit, retorted sharply, "Mother, don't impose your ideas on me! Not everyone is like you, unable to give birth to a son!"
With a loud "slap," a resounding slap landed on Li Yuemei's face, leaving a clear finger mark.
"Shut up! I've really... I've really wasted my time raising you as a daughter!"
Zhao Chunxiu was so angry that she pounded her chest and stamped her feet, then continued to curse, "I really regret it! I should have drowned you in the chamber pot back then!"
