Aunt Chen is also in a bit of a daze. But what Wei Mingyan said just now, the heart was full of spirit again.

“Sister, I also know that you don't want to, but think about it, Lan Lan is going to school soon. She has good grades and is going to a big city. The tuition couldn't be paid by just anybody. She has to eat and drink. The students in the big city are well dressed and wear colorful clothes. Our Lan Lan's dusty clothes would stand out like a sore thumb and laughed at.”

(Sister = no relation, just being polite.)

Aunt Yi admitted that Aunt Chen was right, but what does this have to do with Hun Zi's desire to marry her family Lan Lan?

“Hun Zi said, that if your side agreed, he would give a dowry of a thousand, a thousand yuan! We work to the bones, but we can't save so much money in a year. Moreover, he also said that if he makes money, we will give everything to Lan Lan. Then, he will pay for Lan Lan's college education!”

“He said that?  He can't feed himself. What would he feed my family's Lan Lan?” Aunt Yi almost didn't laugh. Who in the village didn't know what kind of virtue Hun Zi has? It's one thing to boast about his fish, if they really let Lan Lan marry this kind of person, wouldn't it be pus.h.i.+ng her niece raised by her own hands into the fire pit?

“Stop it, I will never agree!”

Yi Zhilan and Yi Qingqing were sitting in the room, listening to the noise outside.

Yi Qingqing was worried and she wanted to rush out and tell Aunt Chen to agree. Today she didn't go out all day. She thought it was out of the question. Unexpectedly, Aunt Chen came to help propose marriage in the evening.

Yi Zhilan is not much better, she has been distracted all day. Waiting for her lover's proposal, but completely forgetting what her aunt and uncle would not agree.

Also, if he hadn't saved her, and they had been together for so long, she would have thought he was a dirtbag also.

Uncle Yi didn't realize that both sisters couldn't eat at all. He was still eating big mouthfuls. After eating two mouthfuls, he saw his niece's worried look. He laughed and thought he knew what she was worried about.

“Don't be afraid, Lan Lan. Uncle won't let you marry that Hun Zi. You're a college student. You'll be free to fall in love after working and find a city person.”

Yi Qingqing's jealous are about to bleed.

Outside, Aunt Yi had already started seeing off guests. Yi Zhilan, in a hurry, gritted her teeth and confessed, “uncle, let's be clear. We are together.”

Uncle Yi was stunned for several seconds before he realized that she was talking about Hun Zi. Shocked chopsticks fell off. “You, what are you talking about?”

“I want to make it clear. I was the one to ask him to come and propose.”

Old Aunt Chen outside was walking out with an embarra.s.sed smile. “Sister, you have to think about it again, or you can see first. If he can't do it, you don't have to agree.”

“I can't wait for him for a lifetime!”

Aunt Yi felt sick at the thought that her clever and sensible niece had been eyed by the village gangster.

She thought, how come he was suddenly so kind to send some fish? Making a scene for a long while, turned out he had a crush on Lan Lan! This is called a weasel sending bugs to a chicken, fatten up for a good slaughter!

(a weasel sending bugs to a chicken; also, a weasel sending new year's gifts = luring someone into a trap; giving something without good intentions.)

“I'll let my husband go to town tomorrow to buy a fish and give it back to him, Aunt Chen. Tell him to stop thinking about it. It would never happen!”

“Don't think about it! Unless he comes back with a sack of money and wears gold and silver like the big bosses in the city.”

“Er, sister, aren't you making things too difficult …?”

Just then, Uncle Yi calmly walked out of the room.

He stood on the steps, looking pale. “Aunt Chen, you tell Hun Zi that if he really earned all her college tuition fees before Lan Lan starts school, we would agree to it.”

The news of Yi Zhilan's engagement to Hun Zi spread all over the village overnight.

Of course, Aunt Chen didn't tell anyone. Who made the sound insulation so bad in their courtyard?

Most people thought that the Yi family just didn't want to offend Hun Zi, but they didn't want to agree to it. So, they put forward this request.

People knew Yi Zhilan will start school in less than a month and a half. The tuition will add up to more than 2,000 yuan a year, which is very difficult to pay in installments. How could someone take out that much money in one breath?

At the same time, another voice quietly appeared in the village. The reason why the Yi family agreed was because Yi Zhilan and Hun Zi were lovers and he promised to marry her.

At first, some people thought it was impossible, but after knowing that these words were said by Yi Qingqing, they had to believe them.

Opinions in the village changed again and again, but Uncle Yi was furious.

” Didn't I tell you not to go out and talk nonsense? Ah? Now you tell the villagers that your sister is dating Hun Zi! What do you want her to do in the future? Ah?!"

Yi Qingqing had never been yelled at like this by her father. She looked at him red-eyed and dissatisfied, “Where am I talking nonsense!? What I said was the truth! They are lovers!”

“You … you still talk nonsense! … Today, I have to teach you …”

Seeing that Uncle Yi was going to raise his hand with veins popping out on his forehead, Yi Zhilan hurriedly stopped him.

“Uncle, don't be angry. Qing Qing didn't mean it. Besides, she is right. I am with Mingyan.”

“Lan Lan!  How come you just don't understand!” Uncle Yi was very angry with the sisters. “Before, when he came to propose, uncle made a request to him. If he couldn't do it, and you weren't together. It wouldn't be a big deal. But if the villagers knew he dating you, you would have to marry him!”

Speaking of it, when he first heard the rumor, Uncle Yi's first reaction was that the b.a.s.t.a.r.d had deliberately said it in order to marry his niece. But he never thought it was his own daughter who spread it.

No, not possible.

Uncle Yi looked at his daughter crying behind Aunt Yi. “Tell me the truth, who taught you to say that! Is it Hun Zi?"

“Uncle!”

Yi Zhilan stopped him at once. “Mingyan won't do that, Qing Qing just didn't think it through, she didn't have any bad intentions.”

Yi Qingqing cried and thought that Yi Zhilan was just foolish. How could that man not have done it? If she hadn't known, and yesterday hadn't gone wrong, Yi Zhilan would have been seen naked by the whole village.

But she didn't know that in Yi Zhilan's heart, her lover was willing to be beaten like that for her sake. So, he wouldn't let those people break in to see her in Wei Mingyan's room. This is proof.

What worries her now is whether her lover will really work to the bone for the 2,000 yuan.

However, Wei Mingyan; who Yi Zhilan is worried about right now, is carrying a sack of fish back. His image has become a little better these days. Now, some people dare to talk to him on the road.

“Hun Zi, are you really planning to sell fish to marry Yi Zhilan?”

“How can I?  Aren't I been saving money? I'm going to find some work in big city.”

Come on, no one in their village goes to work in the big city! People heard that they can get more than 100 a month. But, even if Hun Zi does go, wouldn't it take two years to save up 2,000 yuan?

At this time, a good person asked, “Qing Qing said you and Lan Lan are a pair? Is it true?"

Wei Mingyan smiled at this moment. “I wish it were true. I told Lan Lan that she doesn't have to promise me. It seems that Qing Qing misunderstood and didn't tell you. I have to hurry to town to sell fish.”

Looking at the man with a sack walking away, several people shook their heads and tsked.

“I hardly know him these days. He turned diligent.”

“All the young men who want to marry a girl are like this. The one next door, the youngest son of his family, used to be like Hun Zi, and then he married a wife. Never mind the obedience, I even saw him holding his youngest son to go buy candy the other day.”

“Unfortunately, if this is an ordinary girl, maybe he can really get married. 2,000 yuan, a month, how is that possible?”

Wei Mingyan has been working harder and harder recently. He has to work harder. His future wife still has a little one in her belly.

On the last day, he went to the back mountain, caught a pheasant and came back. In the afternoon, he waited on Yi Zhilan's usual road home. Seeing that the beautiful figure was approaching, he emerged from behind the tree.

Yi Zhilan got a fright and he was about to fall. Wei Mingyan hurriedly supported her, “Lan Lan, are you all right?”

“Mingyan …” Yi Zhilan didn't see him for several days. A pair of eyes looked caringly at the man, her red eyes shed a tear.

“Okay, okay, don't be afraid. I'm sure I can marry and bring you home in style. Here, take this pheasant. Take good care of yourself while I'm away.”

Yi Zhilan took the pheasant doubtfully. “Where are you going?”

“Go to the city to do some business. The money saved from fis.h.i.+ng these days is almost enough to fund my start. Don't worry, Lan Lan. I've already inquired about it. It's quite profitable to sell clothes in the city now. If I sell well, I'm sure I can save enough.”

“Mingyan, that's two thousand yuan. Why don't I continue to tutor, you fish …”

“Lan Lan, I'll let you have a good life.”  Wei Mingyan suddenly interrupted her words, a seriousness flashed in his eyes.

Yi Zhilan looked at him in dismay and finally nodded slowly.

“I'll wait for you to come back.”

Wei Mingyan went away with the money he earned from selling fish. Yi Zhilan could not send him off, but stayed in the house and looked at the wall clock anxiously.

A month pa.s.sed by, there was no news of Wei Mingyan from the city. Seeing that university the entrance date was coming, Yi Zhilan was anxious and worried.

Anxious that he will not come back, or her aunt and uncle will never agree to their marriage. She is worried that if there is no news after so long, something has happened.

Because Hun Zi wasn't willing to give up, Yi Qingqing looked at it with despise and felt disdain in her heart.

She told to her family that she went to the town to look for work, but in fact, she mingled with Long-ge. Every time she saw those younger brothers of Long-ge calling her Sister Qingqing, Yi Qingqing felt very proud.

She made the right decision, and Yi Zhilan will regret it sooner or later.

The people in the village also maintained a consistent att.i.tude of disbelief.

As time goes on, people are more and more sure that Hun Zi wouldn't come back.

Today, Uncle Yi was carrying a pole home. Several old men who had finished farm work and were chatting under the tree stopped him.

“Third son, tomorrow is Lan Lan's entrance date. Hun Zi hasn't come back yet, are you worried?”

Uncle Yi smiled wryly, but his heart was filled with sorrow.

He now watches his niece 'pa.s.s by' the village entrance several times a day, not if she is waiting for Hun Zi.

Although he does not regret offering this condition to scare the boy off, he couldn't be happy to see his niece unhappy.

While he was thinking, suddenly a man came running and shouted at him, “Uncle, hurry up and go home, something has happened at your house!”

Uncle Yi was frightened and hurriedly ran home with the pole on his shoulder. He thought about all kinds of possibilities in his heart, but he never thought that when he got home, he saw a bunch of gangsters standing outside the door playing around. When he came back, the gangsters whistled mockingly.

His heart thumped, maybe Hun Zi couldn't earn money, and directly came to rob?

As he was wondering, he heard Aunt Yi's sad cry from inside the room. His heart tightened, hurriedly rushed in. Those people didn't try to stop him, they cheekily looked at him going in to the room.

“Qing Qing, Qing Qing, that's your sister's college money!”

Uncle Yi rushed in and didn't see Hun Zi, but saw his own daughter holding Long-ge's shoulder and looking down at his wailing wife sitting on the ground.

Yi Qingqing's clear and crisp voice was full of malice. “What kind of sister is she? I'm your own daughter. I'm short on money. What's wrong with spending the family money?”

“Don't take it!" Aunt Yi cried with tears all over her face, repeating, “That's your sister's money for school, don't take it, don't take it …”

Looking at the scene in front of him, Uncle Yi froze.

Yi Qingqing turned her head proudly and saw that her father was behind them. There was a little more fear in her eyes, but he soon she remembered that she was Long-ge's woman now, and the fear disappeared without a trace.

She said, “Dad, I want to go to the big city with Long-ge to work hard. I'll take the family money.”

“That's your sister's …”

“I know!” Her shrill voice interrupted her father's words, “it's just a cousin!  I am your own daughter!  Why can't you afford to let me buy new clothes when you have the money to send her to college?”

“Anyway, I'll take the money as compensation from Yi Zhilan for your bias over the years. Long-ge, let's go.”

Long-ge looked at the wailing woman on the ground, then at Uncle Yi, who stood with tears streaming down his cheeks, and face full of disbelief. He laughed scornfully and grabbed Qing Qing's waist. “Let's go.”

Last time he took his younger brothers away from Wei Mingyan, he had always felt he lost face. He reasoned that this small town could not satisfy him anymore. When he wanted to go, Yi Qingqing, a woman who had come to him on her own initiative, said she would follow him.

It is better to bring a woman, Long-ge thought about it and agreed. Anyway, he does not lack any food. He just didn't expect this woman to take all the money from her family before she left.

Long-ge hates trouble, but who hates money?

As soon as he heard that he could get a thousand yuan, he went with her.

It is not that he didn't think that Hun Zi would help his future father-in-law, but when he came back, Long-ge would have already been long gone. Where would he go to find him?

(TN: Long-ge… long gone… hehehe… yes, it doesn't take much to make me laugh XD)

Yi Qingqing left with all the money in her family.

It was all the savings of the Yi family. In order for Yi Zhilan to attend college, it was saved up after a long period blood sweat and tears.

When Yi Zhilan's came home after tutoring, she saw that the neighbors were all around her house. Her heart was filled with joy. Could it be that he came back to propose the marriage in person?

Just then, she saw an Aunt sitting on the ground by the open door, weeping bitterly.

She immediately panicked, hurriedly rushed in, trying to help her aunt, “Aunts, what's the matter?  What happened at home?”

“This is retribution ah!  Retribution ah!"

(冤孽 / yuān niè = trouble regarded as retribution for bad deeds done in a previous existence; sort of like karma/ bad karma from the previous life.)

Aunt Yi's heart was deeply grieved and her face was full of tears. “Why didn't I drown her when she was born!?"

“What's the matter?  Where's Uncle? Auntie?”

Uncle Yi's voice sounded from a corner of the dark wall, withered and old, “Lan Lan …”

Yi Zhilan froze, only to find that her uncle was in the back. She hurriedly turned to ask, but she froze after seeing Uncle Yi's expression.

Uncle Yi has always been quite old, but he had a good spirit. Although he is wrinkled at ordinary times, he is always cheerful.

But now he looks ten years older.

Uncle Yi's hoa.r.s.e voice sounded with remorse and guilt. “You can't go to college; our family's money has been taken…”

“Uncle is sorry, Lan Lan…”

Yi Zhilan froze: “Uncle, what's going on?”

By the time she knew what had happened, it was already dark, and a kind neighbor sat the two-old people down. Aunt Yi cried and pressed her heart, saying 'retribution' all the time.

“It's okay. It's okay. High school students are also very popular. I go to work in the city. I can make hundreds a month.”

Yi Zhilan choked back the bitterness in her heart and appeased her aunt and uncle. “It doesn't make any difference. Don't feel bad. If Qing Qing leaves, you still have me to give you a carefree old-age.”

Going to college without suffering was a lie. She has suffered a lot over the years and studied hard every day in order to go to college.

But the money was originally from her aunt and uncle. She was lucky enough to go to high school.

Yi Zhilan even had some bitter and happy thoughts. This way, she wouldn't have to go to college, so she wouldn't have to earn the 2,000 yuan.

The people in the village who came to help were also crying. It was a good thing that there was a college student in the family, but who knew that something like this would happen?

Ah.

Everyone is sympathetic. At the moment, when the incident happened at Yi's home, everyone helped to comfort and was talking when the children outside suddenly ran in.

“There's a beautiful car parked in front of Grandpa Yi's house. it's very beautiful, just like the one in the book.”

Several people were stunned, especially Uncle Yi, who needed help to stand up.

“Is that animal back again?”

When the atmosphere was tense, the children flew in again with candy in their hands and told him, “it's Hun Zi! He gave us candy!”

Hun Zi? He came back in a car??

A room full of people didn't believe it. All eyes are focused on the door.

Under everyone's eyes, Wei Mingyan came in wearing a stiff suit with a long, thick gold chain hanging incongruously around his neck and a sack in his left hand.

Wearing gold and silver, diving a car, and a sack of money. The complete set.
