Chapter 307: Chapter 307

Xiao Chengzi said, "I won’t marry Liu Ya; I don’t like her."

"You saw Liu Ya taking a bath. You’ll marry her whether you want to or not!" Liu Yaya shouted, "If you don’t, we’ll go to the government office to sort this out!"

Madam Cheng panicked and quickly said, "Xiao Chengzi, agree quickly, if you don’t agree, you’ll face a lawsuit."

"I didn’t see Liu Ya bathing; you’re wronging me!" Xiao Chengzi shouted, "Why should I agree?"

These past few days, Xiao Chengzi has been staying at the County Magistrate’s residence. Everyone took turns doing his job and advising him, telling him if he didn’t do something, there’s no need to honestly accept it.

If you’re bullied and keep silent, enduring it, everyone will take turns bullying you later.

But it’ll make you suffer.

Xiao Chengzi didn’t want to be wronged anymore, so he mustered up the courage to shout it out.

"Oh, you still want to deny it? I saw you running to my house!" Liu Yaya said angrily.

"It wasn’t me, you’ve mistaken!" Xiao Chengzi shouted.

Liu Yaya sneered, "My eyes are perfectly fine, it was you! I saw it clearly. When I yelled, you panicked and ran away, came into your house from the back door, who else could it be?" Liu Yaya twisted Xiao Chengzi’s arm, "Your eyes had something, which shows you saw Liu Ya!"

"My eyes had an infection, not because I saw anything, see, it’s all cleared up now." Xiao Chengzi retorted indignantly.

"Alright, you little bastard! You saw Liu Ya and still dare to lie, I’ll beat you to death today!" Liu Yaya raged.

"Let’s go in quickly, don’t let Xiao Chengzi suffer!" Li Yuzhu said to everyone.

Government Official Qin Hu heard Liu Yaya’s shouting, and before Li Yuzhu finished speaking, had already pushed open the half-closed courtyard door and strode in.

"Who just said they wanted to file a complaint? Hmm?" Government Official Qin Hu shouted gruffly.

His full official uniform frightened the two women in the courtyard to tremble all over.

Liu Yaya subconsciously released Xiao Chengzi’s hand.

Xiao Chengzi took the opportunity to slip away and stood beside Qin Hu.

"Brother Qin." He nodded at Qin Hu.

Government Official Qin Hu patted him on the shoulder, "Brother Cheng, were you wronged? Why didn’t you say earlier? I’ll take care of the person falsely accusing you for you!"

Liu Yaya, scared, said with a grimace, "Lord Official, I didn’t falsely accuse him, he really ran into my house and saw my daughter bathing. Four days ago, his eyes had something growing, and only if he saw an unmarried girl without clothes would that happen."

Government Official Qin Hu paused, "What nonsense?"

Outside the courtyard, Li Yuzhu, Li Xing’an, and Mu Yuanxiu were about to walk in when Liu Ya ran from her house, "Mom, mom, when am I getting married, mom?"

She was dressed the same as last time everyone saw her, her hair like a bird’s nest, wearing ragged clothes in patches of red and green, her face smeared with gray and black grime.

Though tall and plump, she ran quite fast.

Liu Ya, like a gust of wind, ran past Li Yuzhu and the others and dashed into the Cheng family’s courtyard.

Li Yuzhu and the others followed in afterward.

Suddenly, as a group of people walked in, Liu Yaya was even more dumbfounded.

"Mom, when am I getting married? Mom, say something." Liu Ya ran over, grabbing her mother’s arm and shaking it forcefully.

"Liu Ya, stop making a fuss, there’s a lord here." Liu Yaya glanced cautiously at Qin Hu, reprimanding Liu Ya in a low voice, "Quickly come greet the lord."

Liu Yaya pressed Liu Ya down to salute Qin Hu.

Liu Ya grinned widely, smiling foolishly at Qin Hu.

Qin Hu widened his eyes, pointing at Liu Ya and asked Xiao Chengzi, "Is this the Liu Ya you all talked about?"

Before Xiao Chengzi could answer, Liu Ya nodded with a silly grin, "Yes, I am Liu Ya, are you going to marry me? Ah, let’s go bow to each other then."

As she spoke, she pounced towards Qin Hu.

Government Official Qin Hu, "..." So she’s a fool? I’m marrying you, my ass! "I already have a wife!" Qin Hu pushed her away disdainfully.

Liu Ya, being scolded, ran back to shake her mother’s arm again, "Mom, who am I marrying? This big guy has a wife, he won’t marry me."

Who to marry? How could Liu Yaya still dare to threaten Xiao Chengzi?

Xiao Chengzi had already allied with the government official!

"Don’t make noise, talk later." Liu Yaya whispered to her daughter.

Liu Ya ignored it, mumbling under her breath.

Madam Cheng, however, brightened up and walked over to pull Xiao Chengzi, "Xiao Chengzi, bringing guests back without informing us in advance will make us neglect them."

Xiao Chengzi’s expression was cold as he pulled his arm back from her hand.

Madam Cheng’s expression turned awkward, and she walked over to the government official Qin Hu and Li Yuzhu and the others, "Lord, dear guests, please come inside and sit down, come inside." She shouted loudly towards the house, "Cheng Wang, we have guests, come out and greet them!"

"What’s the fuss? Early in the morning, it’s so noisy." Inside, Madam Cheng’s son impatiently shouted.

Madam Cheng smiled at Li Yuzhu and the others, then turned to run inside, her face as dark as a pot bottom when she turned, "Cheng Wang, Cheng Wang, we have guests, stop sleeping!" How can her son be so ignorant, not even hear the sound from the yard?

Liu Yaya didn’t leave either; she smiled and approached Qin Hu, bowing, "Lord, this woman is a neighbor of the Cheng Family. This is my daughter. My daughter is young and speaks nonsense; she didn’t mean to offend you. Please be kind and forgive her."

"Oh, she’s your daughter? Are you saying Xiao Chengzi was looking at her?" Government official Qin Hu raised an eyebrow, pointing at Liu Ya, "Do you believe your daughter is a fairy or a flower goddess that he should want to look at her?" Check latest chapters at novel•fire.net

When Qin Hu pointed at Liu Ya, Liu Ya was busy sucking her fingers, drool running down her hand, looking at Qin Hu with an infatuated smile, revealing yellow teeth.

Liu Yaya, "..." Her face flushed red and turned white.

"Ugh, so annoying, can’t people sleep?" Madam Cheng’s son rubbed his eyes as he walked into the yard.

He was dragged out of bed by his mother, hair uncombed, clothes thrown on haphazardly.

"Quick, pay your respects to the Lord," Madam Cheng urged him again.

"L-Lord?" Madam Cheng’s son, Cheng Wang, instantly snapped awake.

He blinked his sleepy eyes, looking out into the yard, immediately seeing the big government official, Qin Hu.

He turned pale-faced, nervously walking over to bow, "Little Cheng Wang greets the Lord."

Li Yuzhu stood beside Qin Hu, she looked at Madam Cheng’s son and said, "You have a growth on your eye too, did you also peek at women bathing?" She deliberately shouted.

Madam Cheng’s son, Cheng Wang, also had a sty on his eyelid.

Located in his right eye.

However, it was in the initial stage, only slightly swollen.

With this degree, the itch feels stronger than the pain.

It causes extreme discomfort.

It makes the patient unable to resist blinking or rubbing their eyes occasionally.

Li Yuzhu’s shout made everyone look at Madam Cheng’s son’s eyes.

Sure enough, this eye resembled Xiao Chengzi’s eye back then.

Only, Xiao Chengzi’s was on the left eye, his is on the right.

"It’s widely said that when you see something unclean, your eyes grow stuff, isn’t that right, Madam Cheng?" Mu Yuanxiu said faintly.

Xiao Chengzi furrowed his brows, quietly watching his stepbrother Cheng Wang.

"Ha, interesting!" Li Xing’an laughed, pointing at Madam Cheng’s son, asking Liu Yaya, "You said you saw a man running out of your daughter’s room, then quickly into the Cheng Family. But Xiao Chengzi says he’s never gone to your house, and his eye healed quickly. I bet the peeper must be this guy. Look, he saw something bad, and now his eye grew this thing."

Madam Cheng’s head sudden buzzed, overwhelmed.

She only had one son, who happened to be too lazy and loved drinking.

Once he drank, he’d sleep a whole day. She’d tricked a girl from outside the town to marry him, but her son was so lazy that the wife couldn’t tolerate the poverty and ran off after bearing a son.

She now had to care for the grandson while supporting her son.

The stepdaughter got married and seldom visited, and the stepson was stubborn and defiant, running away whenever she scolded him, utterly unreliable.

A few days ago, the Liu Family claimed the stepson had watched the silly girl of the Liu Family bathe, demanding he marry her.

She discussed with Liu Yaya, deciding against marriage, opting to have the stepson be their live-in son-in-law instead, asking for fifteen taels of silver as bride-price.

Once she got the silver, she’d arrange a wife for her son.

Liu Yaya also agreed to Xiao Chengzi becoming a son-in-law, discussing the wedding date today. How did this mess happen?

Madam Cheng was furious and panicked, "No, no, no, my son didn’t go to the Liu Family, how could he look at Liu Ya? Liu Ya looks , like a sow, and she’s an idiot..."

"Cheng Family, who are you calling a sow?" Liu Yaya got angry, raised her hand, and slapped Madam Cheng, "Your family members are the pigs, piglets! Your piglet ran to my house to watch my daughter bathe and has complaints? Pah, shameless!"
