Chapter 143 - Forced marriage

And Xiang Chen Xi also very well assumed the posture of a listener, until the young man completely revealed all of the unhappiness in his heart. From the beginning to the end, Xiang Chen Xi did not say a single word.

Under the cold breeze, the young man probably understood that this wasn't appropriate. He bitterly smiled and said, "I'm sorry, but you were here listening to me blabber for a long time."

"I'm fine." Xiang Chen Xi moved his lips, since he was bored, it was still early.

After talking with him for another half an hour, Xiang Chen Xi finally managed to escape. On the way back to the hotel, all he could think about was Tao Chu Liang's face …

Everyday, Xiang Chen Xi would be running around town and in the small mountain village. He would be planning business in the hotel and planning to rent land in the village. The village head was very willing to work with him.

Gradually, Lu Yu unconsciously formed a habit, which was that every time he went to class and passed by a small mountain, she would find Xiang Chen Xi's figure on the small mountain.

Tao Chu Liang didn't even know that he had gradually taken control of her heart, and was affecting her thinking.

Every time Xiang Chen Xi appeared on the small mountain, Tao Chu Liang would be very happy. On the other hand, Tao Chu Liang would be listless and listless the entire day.

Every time everyone was doing farm work, they would see Tao Chu Liang's gaze looking for something. After a long time, the people in the village noticed what Tao Chu Liang was thinking.

Her parents were the first to know about Tao Chu Liang's thoughts. Every single time, Tao Chu Liang's parents would always notice it, and no matter what, Tao Chu Liang would always keep Xiang Chen Xi's name on his mouth. Even when he was joking about Xiang Chen Xi's bad situation, Tao Chu Liang would always explain it to him.

Tao Chu Liang's parents started to guess that Tao Chu Liang had fallen for Xiang Chen Xi, and they started to panic. If Tao Chu Liang had fallen for Xiang Chen Xi, then when Xiang Chen Xi returned, Tao Chu Liang would definitely follow him back.

Tao Chu Liang's parents approached the Village Chief and discussed the matter with him. After some discussion, they did not agree with Tao Chu Liang marrying Xiang Chen Xi.

Since he had kept Tao Chu Liang back then, the village chief thought, he could also keep Tao Chu Liang here in the village now.

Thus, after discussing with Tao Chu Liang's parents, the village chief decided to find a young man from the village for Tao Chu Liang to marry to, so that he could keep Tao Chu Liang in the village.

Inside the house, the village chief who had been smoking for decades put the pipe that he had been smoking for dozens of years into his mouth and smoked for a long time. From time to time, he revealed an expression of extreme enjoyment.

In truth, they did not wish for Tao Chu Liang to be trapped in this impoverished little mountain village for his entire life, but the village chief said that there were not many teachers in the village, and most of them were unstable young people. At the very least, Tao Chu Liang's identity on the surface was still someone who grew up in the village.

But now, Xiang Chen Xi had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Xiang Chen Xi's influence on Tao Chu Liang was simply too great, and they had to eliminate all future troubles. They could not let Tao Chu Liang follow him.

"How is it? Do you agree with this matter?"

After not being able to get Tao Chu Liang's parents back for a long time, the village chief became anxious, he knocked on the wall with his pipe, hinting at the two people in front of him.

"This …" In their hearts, they still felt ashamed of Tao Chu Liang, but under the village chief's repeated temptations and close pursuit, the two of them gritted their teeth and nodded in agreement. They agreed to the village chief's request to help Tao Chu Liang find a husband.

"Then the husband's family is …"

Tao Chu Liang's parents were more concerned about this issue. In the rural areas, girls must definitely find a good husband, otherwise, they would be bullied by their wives. There was a good saying that goes, after marrying off the water poured out by their daughters, since they were already married into their husband's family, no matter how old their family was, it would be unsuitable for them to interfere in such matters. Therefore, Tao Chu Liang's parents wanted to find a good wife for Tao Chu Liang, even if they felt guilty, they could still compensate her in this regard.

"Leave this matter to me. I shall be the one deciding Lu Yu to find a good wife so that she won't be bullied when he marries."

Under the intense request of Tao Chu Liang's parents, the village chief walked away with his pipe.

The second morning, Tao Chu Liang's parents did not tell him about this matter, but the two of them went to work in the farmland. When the village chief came to Tao Chu Liang's house, Tao Chu Liang was already preparing lunch.

"Village Chief, you came. My parents went to work. Why don't you come back later?"

Tao Chu Liang glanced at the person who came and told him, he habitually thought that the village chief came to find her parents, so he carried the pot on the fire and told him.

"It's nothing, Meeting the Little Girl, I... I'm here to see you. " The Village Chief paused, intending to explain the reason for his visit.

Tao Chu Liang stopped what he was doing, and suddenly realised that today's chief dressed a little bit … Formal, could something big have happened?

Tao Chu Liang asked what he was thinking about, and the village head thought for a bit, then said, "Meeting the Little Girl, you're not young anymore, right? Look at the Jadeite Flower in our village, it's at your age, but she already has a child, even the youngest child can use soy sauce."

Hearing the Village Chief's words, Tao Chu Liang started to understand.

Looking at Tao Chu Liang's pretty and delicate face, to be honest, Tao Chu Liang was really their village's flower. If it wasn't for his selfishness, then she was actually quite compatible with Xiang Chen Xi when they were together.

"Village Chief, if you have anything to say, just say it. There's no need to beat around the bush."

Tao Chu Liang knew that the Village Chief was straightforward and wouldn't blame him, hence he gathered his courage.

"Shouldn't you start preparing for the wedding as well? I, the village head, am still waiting for your wedding wine." It's been a long time since our village has had a commotion. "

In the small village, the slightly capable youngsters all went out to struggle and rarely came back. Most of the people in the village were the children who stayed behind, the lonely elders, and the people who faced the sky while facing the earth.

The number of people in the village could also gradually decrease, becoming less and less prosperous like before.

"Village chief, you should ask my parents about this …"

Tao Chu Liang's smile was stiff, his heart was a little panicked, she rejected the village chief's excuse, wanting to wait for his parents to come back first.

"Meeting the Little Girl, to tell you the truth, you and Zhao Jing have been engaged since young, and now that you know him, he can be considered young and promising. You're not young either, it's time for you two to discuss the matter of marriage."

The village chief's words were like a demon's voice in Tao Chu Liang's ears, shocking her into a daze, and she was momentarily at a loss as to how to respond.

"What, didn't your parents tell you? "What's going on with these two? They agreed to marry once their child grew up …" The village chief struck while the iron was hot. Tao Chu Liang was in a daze as he only heard the village chief's rambling. However, she did not catch what the village chief was saying.

Time flew by quickly. Tao Chu Liang's parents, who were doing farm work in the fields, came back from the fields to eat and rest. They would go back when the sun had dimmed a little, and they would return home to find the Village Chief at his house.

"Village Chief, why are you here?"

The two of them did not know the purpose of the Village Chief's visit, so the woman asked without thinking.

"How did you forget? Didn't you say yesterday that you would talk about marriage to Meeting the Little Girl? How did you, your parents, manage to tell Meeting the Little Girl that you have been engaged to Zhao Jing since you were young? Could it be that you all disapprove of this marriage in front of your fellow villagers?"

The man's thoughts flew quickly, remembering yesterday's discussion with the village chief, he immediately understood what the village chief meant. He was just surprised that the village chief found Tao Chu Liang's good man so quickly.

So your mother found a fortune-teller for you. The fortune-teller said that you were lucky enough to get lucky, so your mother asked the fortune-teller to find a person from our village with five elements and find them. The fortune-teller said that the two of you matched up perfectly, and if we could get you together, it would be easy.

When Tao Chu Liang heard this explanation, he didn't believe his initially but after thinking about it, a year ago, he had gotten so sick and recovered after getting sick for a long time. Some things had already been forgotten by him, and his parents shouldn't have any reason to lie to him.

"But …"

"Meeting the Little Girl, I know you can't accept it for a while, but you are betrothed to me. "How about this, you discuss this with your parents and I'll be leaving first."

The village chief advised from the side, he knew that being tight was not a good idea, so after speaking with Tao Chu Liang for a bit, he left Tao Chu Liang's home.

Tao Chu Liang's parents did not know what the village chief was thinking, so they comforted Tao Chu Liang and found an excuse to slip out of the door. After leaving the space to Tao Chu Liang, they headed to the village chief's residence to search for something and said that they would resign.

After her parents left, Tao Chu Liang was still a little muddleheaded. She was very surprised that she had decided to have a baby marriage since she was young. To be honest, she was very surprised, but she really didn't want to admit it.

When her parents had arranged this child's marriage for her, it was also for her own good. She couldn't find any words to refute this child's marriage.
