Chapter 116: Talking About Marriage, Not About Karma! [Subscribe]
"What a sin!"
Old Wei sat down on the side.
Looking at the farce of Grandma Wang's family of three, he tried to persuade them several times but didn't know what to say. After all, he was just an outsider.
Wei Hong chuckled and finally asked the question in his heart: "What's going on?"
"Hey!" Old Wei said naggingly: "Chunlan and the boy from the Zhou family are always in the embroidery workshop, and it's inevitable that they have a crush on each other. The two have been together without a matchmaker."
"Zhou Lin is also a difficult person. In order to save some money, she didn't even bother to invite a matchmaker. She came directly to propose marriage, and was only willing to pay a betrothal gift of three taels of silver. She also kept asking Grandma Wang to give more dowry, otherwise she wouldn't let Chunlan get married. Don't you think this is bullying?"
Wei Hong immediately became interested when he heard it.
Isn't this more interesting than storytelling and listening to music? I knew I would watch the fun at home, but I didn't expect to miss such a good show when I went out.
"Zhou Lin is a smart person!" Wei Hong laughed dumbly and said, "Knowing that Grandma Wang's family of three has taken some money from the family during this period, I'm afraid she is preparing to empty them."
"Haha!" Old Wei said with indignation on his face, "It's Chunlan who revealed her true colors. If she hadn't been so cunning, how could the Zhou family control the Wang family so easily? Alas, without a man in the family, it will be difficult to be strong, and we can't say much."
While speaking!
Old Wei directed the topic to him again, blaming him, "Look, Chunlan is only fifteen or sixteen years old and has already arranged marriages. What about you? You are almost eighteen and still a single person. When will I, an old man, be able to hold my grandson?"
"Me?"
Wei Hong laughed dumbly.
Although people like him yearn for an ordinary life, the road to becoming stronger will eventually be accompanied by blood and rain. How dare he marry and have children easily?
"Don't count on me." Wei Hong teased, "You should treat Yuanyuan as your great-granddaughter, and call her great-grandfather!"
"Great-grandfather!"
The little girl called out softly, and immediately made Old Wei smile.
The quarrel between Grandma Wang and her family finally came to an end. In fact, Chunlan was mad unilaterally. No matter how Grandma Wang and Qiuju persuaded her, she wanted to marry into the Zhou family. She also threatened to hate them for the rest of her life if she was not allowed to marry.
Finally!
Grandma Wang finally had no choice. She looked at Wei Hong for help: "Brother Hong, you are knowledgeable and have face. Chunlan may listen to you. Why don't you persuade her?"
"Don't!" Wei Hong decisively chose to refuse: "You should either make your own decisions or listen to your parents for important matters in life. Outsiders' talk will be annoying no matter what the result is. You should discuss it by yourselves."
"This?"
Grandma Wang sighed and dared not force it.
Chunlan looked at Wei Hong gratefully, as if she felt that he had spoken for her.
In fact, if Wei Hong really started to persuade her, Chunlan really didn't know what to do. At least she didn't dare to openly contradict him. After all, with his current power and status, the Zhou family couldn't afford to offend him.
If Wei Hong really wanted to cut off their contact, he could do it.
But he was too lazy to care about other people's cause and effect. What did it have to do with him whether she jumped into the fire pit?
"Chunlan, you decide whether you want to marry or not." Wei Hong warned in a cold voice: "But you are not allowed to bring outsiders back to the Wei residence in the future, and you are not allowed to disclose the matter of Yuanyuan to the Zhou family. If you can't do it, I will kill you personally."
Everyone took a breath.
No one thought that Wei Hong would say such cruel words at this time.
Chunlan was even more frightened by the murderous look in his eyes, and couldn't help but tremble and said: "Brother Wei, what are you talking about? I won't..."
"It's better not to." Wei Hong sneered: "Uncle Lin's death is related to some powerful disputes. Once Yuanyuan's identity is leaked, we will all die. If you don't want to kill your grandmother and sister, and don't want to kill the Zhou family, then shut up!"
"If I find out that you are so confused that you dare to talk nonsense with the Zhou family, even if it doesn't fall into the ears of others, I will have to kill you and the Zhou family to ensure Yuanyuan's safety!"
"Let me be frank in advance. Once I take action, it will be useless no matter where you escape. If you don't want your grandmother to send you off, you'd better be smart."
After that, he said no more.
Grandma Wang hesitated to speak, and finally said solemnly: "Hong Ge'er is right, the ugly words have been said in advance. If Chunlan is still stupid enough to tell others about Yuanyuan, please kill her quickly. I, the old woman, will not complain."
"Grandma, you?" Chunlan couldn't believe it.
Qiu Ju also said coldly: "Sister, you are a willful and quick-talking person. How can Brother Wei not know your temperament? We can't control if you want to get married, but if you dare to harm Yuanyuan, Brother Wei will kill you if he doesn't kill you."
"Okay, okay, you all bully me, right?"
Chunlan wiped her tears and went back to her room crying.
Wei Hong didn't care about it at all. Who cares if she cries or not? If she wants to get married, she should get married quickly to avoid being an eyesore here, but the necessary beatings must be necessary.
Although Chunlan is selfish, she is not stupid.
She couldn't afford to offend a vicious man like Wei Hong, and she didn't dare to say anything outside after being beaten.
"Alas!" Grandma Wang rubbed Qiuju's head and said with a wry smile: "Your sister has been a worry since she was a child. Now she wants to suffer, let her suffer. Even if I have to empty my family's coffers, I will send her off in a grand ceremony. However, if she doesn't live well from now on, you can't blame others, but you must not learn from her."
"My granddaughter just wants to practice martial arts and become stronger." Qiu Ju said firmly, "Let's forget about getting married."
"Practice martial arts, practice martial arts, and you must marry." Grandma Wang complained naggingly: "Don't imitate Brother Hong and become an old bachelor, otherwise no one will break the pot when you die."
"Hahaha!"
Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Wei Hong hugged Yuan Yuan tightly silently, a hint of warmth flashed in his heart.
This is his home, and the smell of home makes him greedy.
In order to protect the family he cares about, he doesn't mind killing anyone, even if there is the slightest danger, he will strangle them in the cradle.
Chunlan is like this, and the Lu family should be like this too!
"It seems that after waiting for this storm, I have to secretly collect some information about the Lu family. They will definitely use various means to find my existence. It is not my style to be passively beaten all the time."
"Only by taking the initiative and making them run exhausted can this grudge be completely resolved, and the hatred that blocked my path can be avenged."
Wei Hong was thinking silently in his heart, and his eyes gradually turned cold.
After chatting with everyone for a while, he stepped into the practice room again and started practicing.
Practicing martial arts is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Only by practicing diligently can you maintain progress. In order to live a better life, he can only work harder.
