Madam Li was already jealous of how Chen Hu’s family was doing now.
Not to mention that Chen Hu’s daughter, Chen Daniu, had decided on a good family. Now that something had happened, Madam Li was overjoyed. It would be best if something bad had happened.
“My God, this is downright indecent. How can anyone do such a thing?”
“I’m afraid this is not going to happen. What kind of thing is this, really…”
“Stop it, stop it…”
Everyone whispered to each other. Then, after Chen Hu’s family came over, their voices gradually softened.
“What on earth is going on?”
Chen Hu and Madam Qian rushed over with questioning expressions. They were entertaining in front and were very busy. When they heard the scream, they hurried over.
People automatically moved aside, allowing Chen Hu and Madam Qian to see the two people sitting in a panic in the back room.
Looking at Su Yufang, who was hugging Xu Bowen with her clothes in a mess, Madam Qian almost fainted. Chen Hu caught her in time.
Chen Hu also clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
“What’s going on?”
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao rushed over and saw it as well.
Madam Zhao frowned fiercely and shouted angrily, “What are you two doing?! What are you doing in broad daylight?”
Su Yufang covered her face and began to cry.
Xu Bowen looked flustered and stammered, not knowing what to say.
Madam Zhou squeezed out of the crowd. When she saw that Su Yufang was actually hugging Xu Bowen, she immediately rushed over and hugged Su Yufang.
Su Yufang immediately threw herself into Madam Zhou’s arms and cried, “Mother, what should I do? How am I supposed to get married? Mother… how am I supposed to live?”
Xu Bowen’s parents also heard the sound and came over. People made way for the couple to see clearly.
Seeing that their son was actually hugging another woman, the couple was also shocked. They hurriedly went over and pulled Xu Bowen up.
Mr. Xu slapped Xu Bowen across the face. “You’ve embarrassed us all, you bastard.”
Madam Wu frowned and looked anxious. “My son, you’re so stupid.”
Xu Bowen looked at the crying Su Yufang and felt sorry for her. He opened his mouth but didn’t know how to explain.
Either way, he was in the wrong.
“Father, Mother, what happened?”
Chen Daniu, Chen Erniu, and Su Xiaoling rushed over together. Chen Daniu asked. Without waiting for an answer, she had already seen it.
The flustered Xu Bowen. The crying Su Yufang.
What was going on?
Su Yufang had been secretly observing. When she saw Chen Daniu, she cried even harder. She cried and said, “Mother, my reputation is ruined. I can’t marry anyone in the future. Let me die.”
Su Yufang forcefully broke free from Madam Zhou and was about to crash into the wall.
Madam Zhou immediately hugged her and cried, “Yufang, don’t do that, don’t do that, I only have one daughter!”
Madam Zhou’s mind worked very quickly. She immediately shouted at Xu Bowen, “Xu Bowen, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and say something. You’ve done that to my daughter, so you have to be responsible for her. My innocent daughter has been chosen by a good family. If you like her and can’t help yourself, then you have to take responsibility.”
Madam Zhou quickly figured out the pros and cons. She did not care how this matter happened.
What was done was done. Her daughter had lost everything. She could not ignore her daughter.
Perhaps Su Yufang had used some tricks, but this was also because Xu Bowen had no self-control. If he hadn’t cooperated, this wouldn’t have happened.
The two of them held each other in the back room field and kissed.
If someone hadn’t bumped into them and broken it with a scream, there was no telling what would have happened.
Since it had happened, it had to be resolved. Su Yufang could only marry Xu Bowen.
“There—there must be a misunderstanding.”
Madam Wu hurriedly said. Her son was here to get engaged to Chen Daniu. Who knew what kind of family this woman suddenly came from?
The matchmaker had made it clear that Chen Daniu’s family was quite well-off and wealthy. They doted on their daughter, so they would definitely have a lot of dowries. Moreover, after Chen Daniu got married, she could still work and earn a lot of money every month.
Chen Daniu also had good cooking skills. This could reduce the burden on the family.
Not many families could match such conditions.
Madam Wu pushed Xu Bowen and said anxiously, “Wen, hurry up and explain. Don’t let everyone misunderstand. What happened between you and this woman must have been a misunderstanding. I guess she must have needed your help with something, right?”
Xu Bowen nodded dumbly. “Yes.”
As soon as Xu Bowen finished speaking, Madam Zhou immediately scolded loudly, “Pfft, what kind of help required you to hold my daughter and kiss her? If you don’t want to admit it, I won’t agree to it. If anything happens to my daughter, I’ll sue your son to the government office!”
“Mother, mother, how can I live…”
Su Yufang cried her heart out.
Mr. Xu frowned. He wanted to say something, but he couldn’t find the words. After what had happened, he felt utterly humiliated.
Madam Wu was unconvinced. She was about to speak when she heard a stern shout.
“That’s enough. Get out of here, all of you …”
Chen Daniu’s face was filled with tears as she roared.
People turned to look at her.
Chen Hu and Madam Qian looked worried. Madam Qian’s heart ached. “Daniu…”
Chen Daniu looked at Chen Hu and Madam Qian with tears streaming down her face. She choked and said, “Father, Mother, I’m not sure about this marriage anymore.”
With that, Chen Daniu ran out.
Su Xiaoling hurriedly said to Chen Hu and Madam Qian, “Uncle, Auntie, I’ll go take a look.”
“I’m coming too.”
Chen Erniu gritted her teeth.
With that, Su Xiaoling and Chen Erniu chased after Chen Daniu.
Madam Qian leaned against Chen Hu and cried, “Dear, let’s call it off.”
To let her daughter suffer such humiliation on the day of the engagement, who knew what would happen in the future?
No matter how much she liked Xu Bowen, she couldn’t say yes now.
How this happened was no longer that important. What was important was that it had happened. It was a fact that Xu Bowen had hugged Su Yufang and kissed her.
Madam Zhao sighed and patted Madam Qian’s shoulder.
Su Sanlang calmly said to Chen Hu, “Hu, listen to Daniu. Let’s call it off. Our Daniu is a good daughter and should be matched with a good family.”

Chen Hu nodded sadly.
When Madam Wu heard Su Sanlang’s words, she immediately wanted to explain. “In-law, we haven’t figured out this matter yet. We can’t be so careless. My child is a good child. He definitely won’t do anything out of line. I think this woman is shameless. She seduced my son.”
“Wen, isn’t that right?” Madam Wu pushed Xu Bowen.
Xu Bowen stammered. He looked at Su Yufang, whose face was covered in tears. She looked so pitiful. Su Yufang was prettier than Chen Daniu. She was so sad. She was a woman and the pressure on her was greater than his. Xu Bowen could not bring himself to say this. Actually, he was the one who did not have the willpower.
