Seeing that the visitors were Lame Zhang and Zhang Guangzong, Mrs. Liu's face dropped.
This family is like a dog-skin plaster that cannot be shaken off even if it is applied to the Xiao family.
"Zhang Laizi, what are you doing here!" she asked angrily.
"Sister-in-law Liu, you are here too, just in time to enjoy the occasion!"
"What kind of good fortune? I think the bad luck is pretty much the same."
"Hey, I don't like hearing what you are saying. How can this wonderful marriage of thousands of miles and a perfect match be anything but joy?"
"What a marriage of thousands of miles, who will marry you of thousands of miles!"
Seeing Laiguai's wrinkled face full of smiles, Mrs. Liu Wang secretly felt that something was wrong.
"Who else, isn't it the thousand-mile marriage between my son and Ruo Ruo!"
The lame Li Lecheng looked like a flower, smiling and pushing Zhang Guangzong forward who had been following him.
Zhang Guangzong smiled innocently, his cheeks were dark and red, and his uneven teeth could be seen in his cracked mouth.
He felt that Xiaoruo was more beautiful and charming today than in the past. Unlike before, when she always lowered her head, he could only see her white forehead and soft velvet hair.
Today Xiaoruo is wearing a white top and green skirt, standing upright, with the sun shining on her pink and tender face. Her eyes are clear and her expression is indifferent, like a tall lily blooming in the spring breeze.
Looking at it, Zhang Guangzong couldn't help but drag his lame foot towards Xiaoruo for a few steps. He had thought about this beautiful woman for many years, and now she was going to be his wife. How could he not be excited.
Zhang Guangzong was still a few steps away from Xiao Ruo, when suddenly a wooden crutch was placed between them.
The wooden crutch swung in the direction of Zhang Guangzong and poked him on his right shoulder, staggering him and almost falling to the ground.
"Ouch Guangzong!" Lame Zhang let out a strange cry, dropped the bag he was holding and went to help his son.
After holding his son steady, he turned around and wanted to curse, but when he looked over there he was shocked.
Xiao Xun, who had been standing silently behind Xiao Ruo, was now standing in front of Xiao Ruo, with his wooden crutch pointing in the direction of Zhang Guangzong, and his sinister eyes staring closely at the Zhang family and his son.
In a daze, Lame Zhang felt like he was being stared at by a wolf, whose eyes seemed to solidify and scratch his neck. The evil wolf would pounce at any time, sever his carotid artery, and tear him to pieces with its fangs.
His hand holding his son unconsciously tightened, so hard that Zhang Guangzong couldn't help but gasp.
After a while, he stumbled and asked: "Who are you..."
The young man standing in front of Xiao Ruo did not answer his words.
An old and familiar voice came from outside the hospital.
"Zhang Heli, why did you come to the Xiao family to cause trouble again?"
It was the old village chief and Liu Tiesheng who came.
Some villagers saw Lame Zhang entering the village with his son, and knew that he was looking for the Xiao family again. The girl of the Xiao family was at home at the moment. The villagers were afraid that Xiao Ruo would be bullied, so they hurried to notify the old village chief.
"You came to our Jingzhu Village for several days in a row and made our Jingzhu Village restless. What do you want to do?" the old village chief scolded sternly.
Lame Zhang saw the old village chief coming, and for some reason he breathed a sigh of relief. He tried hard to ignore the look that sent chills down his spine, and put on a flattering smile on his face.
"Looking at what you said, it's a good thing that I'm here this time."
"Humph, what good can you do!"
"I'm here to propose marriage to my son! Isn't that a good thing!"
Hearing what Lame Zhang said, the old village chief became even more displeased.
This one didn't ask for a gift, and the second one didn't ask for a levy, and didn't bring a matchmaker or a betrothal gift, so he just said that he came to propose marriage. Isn't this just bullying the Xiao family's father and mother to die, and wanting to exterminate the family directly.
Before the old village chief could say anything, the outspoken Liu Tiesheng gave up and said angrily: "What are you proposing for marriage? What are you proposing for marriage with, just a bag of tattered cabbage? You are not too impatient!"
These words can irritate Zhang Guangzong, but not his father, whose face is thicker than the city wall.
Lame Zhang looked a bit shameless. He glanced sideways at Xiao Ruo and said, "If my family is poor, I can only bring this much to propose marriage. Besides, if anyone in our village doesn't know about my son and Ruo Ruo, I don't believe it."
None of you in Jingzhu Village have heard of it!"
He didn't dare to look at the ferocious-looking young man in front of Xiao Ruo, so he could only look at Xiao Ruo sideways, winking and speaking proudly.
"Ruo Ruo, our two families are distant cousins. You and Guangzong played together when we were young. Your parents and I have already agreed that we will get married when you grow up. This is a baby match that we have already made!
"
When Xiaoxun heard this, he was furious. He wished he had a sharp sword instead of a wooden crutch, so that he could cut the lame old man's throat with one sword.
Xiaoruo could feel the anger emanating from the young man standing in front of her. He was holding the wooden crutch with such force that his veins popped out, and the muscles under his loose cloth shirt must have been extremely tight.
She raised her hand and patted the young man's back gently, signaling him to get out of the way.
Xiao Xun was like an inflated balloon. Xiao Ruo's gentle pat on the back removed the air core, and the anger in her body calmed down little by little. The Xiao Ruo he knew was well-planned and measured in doing things, as if no matter how difficult it was for her,
Can be solved easily.
He just needs to listen to her arrangements.
Xiao Xun obediently took a step to the right, and Xiao Ruo, who was firmly protected behind him, also appeared in people's sight.
Xiaoruo had a faint smile on her face, which made her whole person exude confidence.
She calmly asked Xiang Laiguai Zhang: "You said that your son and I have made an appointment, do you have proof?"
Lame Zhang was stunned for a moment when he was asked. He didn't expect Xiao Ruo to ask this.
After being mute for a while, he hesitated and said: "There is no certificate...but, we have made an agreement with your parents, and your parents have promised that you will marry into my family!"
"My parents have been dead for several months. You didn't come to ask for fulfillment when they were still alive. Now no one can confirm that you have a verbal engagement with my family?"
"I, we also passed away suddenly. We didn't have time... We were too sad and didn't have time to think about this..."
Lame Zhang saw that Xiaoruo was not so easy to fool, so he decided to cheat: "Anyway, your parents agreed! Everyone in our village knows it! They can testify!"
Seeing the lame old man acting rogue and trying to stretch out his hand to pull Xiao Ruo's sleeve, Xiao Xun immediately stepped forward and knocked on the limp's hand that was stretched out towards Xiao Ruo. Immediately a red and swollen mark appeared.
"Ouch!" Laiguaizhang screamed in pain, and the severe pain in his hands emboldened him. He cursed angrily: "Where are you from, kid? This is a matter between my family and the Xiao family. Why are you meddling in it?"
"
"Humph, who is he? He is my man, why do you think he has a hand in it?"
