Chapter 24: Marrying All the Women in Your Family
When Cui Hua’s mother spoke about letting Liu Zixuan marry her, everyone’s face instantly showed a look of surprise.
And the look they gave Cui Hua’s mother seemed to convey four words: ’Are you kidding me?’
All of them, to a person, at least most of them are young maidens, had long regarded Liu Zixuan as a male idol in their hearts. And here you are, an old lady, shamelessly suggesting that our idol marry you.
Have you no shame!
Liu Ruyan looked at the surprised faces around and suddenly covered her mouth, chuckling, nudging Liu Zixuan with her elbow and teasingly saying, "You are really popular! Cui Hua’s mother is so attractive... maybe you should think about it?"
"Think about what, the hell."
Liu Zixuan exploded immediately, clenching his fists and pounding them on the kang, looking helplessly at Cui Hua’s mother and said: "Aunt, are you a joker invited by monkeys?"
Cui Hua’s mother was stunned for a moment, then reacted. She also realized that saying that sentence had provoked public outrage, so she changed her words: "I know I’m old, that you don’t fancy me, but my daughter is still young, still a young maiden, why don’t you marry her. I don’t mind if you become a son-in-law."
"Damn it, you don’t mind me being a son-in-law? Well, I do mind it!"
Liu Zixuan was so frustrated that he couldn’t speak. Reasoning with women never works, plus, he never hits women.
Frustrated to the point his fists were making cracking sounds, he couldn’t vent out his fury!
"Cui Hua’s mom, this is too much. It’s obviously a trap for Liu Zixuan!"
"Exactly, I think there was no molesting at all, it was just you and Cui Hua setting traps for Liu Zixuan!"
"I also think so, in the city this is called a scam... yes, it’s a scam!"
Soon enough, all the women in the back started siding with Liu Zixuan.
Seeing this, Cui Hua turned red in the face, walked over to her mother, and whispered, "Mom, I told you this wouldn’t work."
Cui Hua’s mother gave her a fierce glare, "Shut up. This guy brought investment to our village in just a few days, and he’s a doctor with skills. Mother is trying to secure him for you, so we can have a good life in the future!"
Even though the voice was low, the people around could hear it.
Everyone suddenly realized that Cui Hua’s mother was clearly trying to set up Liu Zixuan.
These days, Liu Zixuan was seeking investment, making money, and astonishing everyone with his medical skill. In the eyes of the village women, he was undoubtedly an all-around talent.
And Liu Zixuan was the only man in the entire Lingxiu Village. If Cui Hua married Liu Zixuan, their family could have the best life.
What was it often said...
Right! First come, first served!
Cui Hua’s mother’s idea was to snag Liu Zixuan for their family first, making the other women only envious!
Hearing this, Liu Zixuan felt his mouth twitch with anger.
Before he could speak, Liu Ruyan interjected, "Auntie, I know you want Cui Hua to have a good life, but you can’t use such methods."
Actually, Liu Ruyan had figured out what was going on earlier, and she was only teasing Liu Zixuan by saying those things.
It’s because he had just made her call him "husband" in front of everyone.
Humph!
You want to fight with this village head, you’ve got a long way to go!
"I don’t care, since you’ve all heard, I might as well not pretend anymore."
Cui Hua’s mother, acting like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, said defiantly: "Anyway, he was indecent to me, he must marry Cui Hua. If he refuses, I, an old woman, will bang my head against the south wall and make you feel guilty for life!"
"Holy cow, using death as a threat."
Blurting out, Liu Zixuan exclaimed.
"This is so shameless."
"How come I never thought of this method before."
The nearby women muttered quietly, but the situation became a bit of a stalemate.
After all, they could see that Cui Hua’s mother was determined and might actually do something outrageous for her daughter.
So everyone’s eyes turned to Liu Ruyan, to see how this village head planned to resolve the situation.
Liu Ruyan also frowned; she hadn’t expected Cui Hua’s mother would resort to using death as a threat!
What should she do with her village?
Then, she turned her gaze to Liu Zixuan and said softly, "You see, Cui Hua is actually quite pretty too..."
"Oh, come on." Liu Zixuan was tempted to curse.
Originally thinking that many women were a good thing, he hadn’t imagined it would one day become a downfall!
Oh, he always said he would stay unscathed while wandering among the flowers, didn’t he?
Oh, he promised to be romantic but not indecent, right?
Liu Zixuan took a deep breath to calm himself down, he was indeed a bit confounded just now, he had to think about how to solve this, relying on Liu Ruyan definitely wouldn’t work.
You cheeky lass, you wait and see, now you want to push me into the arms of another woman, let me teach you a lesson afterwards.
You little vixen, you’re also messing with me!
After a brief moment of thought, Liu Zixuan’s eyes suddenly lit up.
He smiled at Cui Hua’s mother and said, "I was indecent to you, right?"
"That’s right!" Cui Hua’s mother replied with conviction.
"So you want me to marry your daughter, yes?" Liu Zixuan asked again.
"Correct!"
"Alright, I’ll marry!" Liu Zixuan said determinedly, but then changed his tone: "But I have a condition!"
"What condition?" Cui Hua’s mother heard hope and immediately became happy.
But the other women beside her did not agree. The only man in Lingxiu Village, Liu Zixuan, was going to be snatched by Cui Hua, what about them?
Immediately, they turned to Liu Zixuan, saying one after another: "Liu Zixuan, you can’t agree!"
"Yes, if you marry Cui Hua, what about us?"
Liu Ruyan also looked a bit taken aback and tugged at Liu Zixuan: "Hey, you aren’t really going to do it, are you?"
"Weren’t you the one who told me to think about it?"
"I!" Liu Ruyan’s face turned red: "I was just joking. After all..."
"After all what?" Liu Zixuan asked teasingly.
Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes at him and didn’t say anything, but there was a trace of regret in her eyes. Why did she joke with him earlier?
Such a good man... I should have gone after him myself.
...
"My condition is, I not only want to marry your daughter, but I also want to marry you!" Liu Zixuan folded his arms and said to Cui Hua’s mother: "Right, do you have any female relatives like Cui Hua’s aunts, call them all over, I’ll marry them all, one isn’t too few, ten isn’t too many."
"As long as you agree, I’ll marry immediately, and Brother Zixuan will proudly take you along!"
