Chapter 209 No Forced Marriage This Year
The aura of several men was shocking here. In addition, Zhou Zhiping was originally in the wrong, and the public security personnel were on Xu Jianping's side, so the Zhou family had to lower their heads and pay out three hundred yuan, as well as medical expenses and nutrition expenses.
Then, several families asked Zhou Zhiping to apologize to Xiao Tang and Xu Jianping on the spot and promise not to harass Xiao Tang anymore. Only then did the matter end.
It was more than an hour later when the group of people walked out of the police station. The Zhou family didn't dare to say anything. After coming out, they took Zhou Zhiping away in shame.
Xiao Tang looked at Xu Jianping, who was being supported by Jiang Yi, and thought that half of his condition was her fault. So she said directly to her parents, "Comrade Xu Jianping's serious injury was caused by me. I have the responsibility to take care of him while he recovers."
Hearing this, Xu Jianping stood up and told her that he was fine.
But just as he had this thought, Jiang Yi held his shoulders and he couldn't move at all.
Xu Yu also secretly pinched his side.
She wanted to help Xiao Tang and asked her mother to stop forcing her to go on blind dates, so she had to sacrifice her second brother at this time.
She used a little too much force this time, and the pain made Xu Jianping gasp.
His behavior made people who didn't know the truth think that he was really seriously injured.
Xiao Tang blamed himself even more, and with red eyes, he apologized to him: "Comrade Xu Jianping, I'm sorry."
Xu Jianping looked at her red eyes and opened his mouth, feeling inexplicably flustered, but when he thought of his sister twisting someone's hand, he just hummed in the end.
Seeing him like this, Director Wu said to Tang's father and mother, who had serious expressions, "I told you not to force Juan'er to go on a blind date. Look at what has happened to you now!"
Xiao Tang had been feeling suffocated by her mother's cold and violent treatment for the past two days, and now she exploded: "This is the honest man you asked me to be with. I've only been out with him two or three times. Last time he tried to make a move on me, and that was fine, but this time he came to our factory and beat people up when I refused to be with him. If I really listened to you and got together with him, it wouldn't be the man I was with who got beaten up, but him."
Xu Yu agreed, "There are gay men like this in our village too. They act very honest and reliable when they're with lesbians, but if they don't agree, they'll harass them in various ways and even go out and ruin their reputations. So, Xiao Tang, you'd better let everyone know the truth before Comrade Zhou ruins your reputation."
These words made Director Wu, Mr. and Mrs. Tang change their expressions.
Tang's father said angrily, "Let him try to ruin Juan'er's reputation!"
Director Wu also said, "Xiao Xu is right."
Tang's mother really wanted her daughter to find a good man to marry, but when she met someone like Zhou Zhiping, she was angry and blamed herself. Knowing that she was in the wrong, she still said stubbornly: "If I knew Zhou Zhiping was so unreliable, how could I agree to let you be with him?"
Xiao Tang actually hoped that after this incident, her mother would not let her go on blind dates anymore, but after hearing her say that, it was impossible for her not to feel disappointed and sad. She lowered her eyes and didn't want to talk anymore.
At this time, Xu Yu's voice rang out, "Auntie, Xiao Tang was obviously frightened today. She might have been psychologically traumatized. I suggest you stop introducing her to potential partners and let her calm down. There's a saying that goes, 'doing the opposite of what you want.' Otherwise, she'll develop a psychological trauma around gay men, which will be troublesome."
Xiao Tang suddenly looked at Xu Yu.
Xu Yu calmly gave her a look that asked her to cooperate.
Little Tang understood immediately, lowering his head and crying, he said, "Dad, Mom, Uncle, I'm terrified just thinking about Comrade Zhou rushing over and beating up Comrade Xu Jianping without knowing any reason. If I ever meet someone like that again, I don't think I'll be able to face the world."
These words made the expressions of Mr. and Mrs. Tang and Director Wu change at the same time.
Director Wu clearly liked this niece and said to Tang's mother in a deep voice, "Don't introduce anyone to Juan'er anymore. With her qualifications, she won't have any trouble finding a partner. Besides, if you hand her over to me, I want to promote her. Letting her find a partner and get married now will only delay her."
"But Juan'er is already 21." Mother Tang felt that her eldest daughter was already very old and was afraid that if she didn't find a partner, she would be past her best age and wouldn't be able to find a good partner.
"She's 21, so she's 21. Yunxia is a year older than Juan'er. We're not in a hurry for her to find a boyfriend, so why are you so anxious?"
"But……"
Unexpectedly, Tang's father also agreed with his brother-in-law's words: "Big brother is right. The furniture factory is already in the development stage. Once the furniture factory becomes bigger and stronger, are we still worried that Juan'er won't be able to find a good man?"
Xu Yu also said, "Auntie, don't keep Xiao Tang looking for a partner in the county. When the furniture factory grows bigger and stronger, let her go to a big city to find a partner. Many promising young people in big cities must want to build their own careers before getting married... If you don't believe me, ask Comrade Zhu and the others. They are from the provincial capital."
As she spoke, she pointed at the people walking beside them.
Although they were all wearing ordinary clothes, their aura showed that they were not ordinary people.
Although Xu Yu didn't reveal their identities, he deliberately said, "They're both in their twenties, and they're not rushing to get married. Men know that they should build their careers first. You worked so hard to raise Xiao Tang, are you going to let her get married and have children as soon as she graduates from school?"
Regardless of whether Zhu Juncheng and the others who were named were married or not, they all showed expressions of acquiescence.
Mother Tang was silent.
After a while, as if he had figured it out, he said to Xiao Tang: "I won't force you to get married this year, but next year..."
"Okay!" Xiao Tang immediately extended his hand and promised her, "Next year I will definitely find a gay man that you are most satisfied with to marry."
Anyway, this year has just begun, so we’ll talk about next year’s affairs next year.
As long as I can keep my ears clear this year, that will be enough.
With Xiao Tang's assurance, Tang's mother said nothing more.
Everyone rushed over before having lunch, and Mr. Tang directly invited them to have lunch at a state-owned restaurant.
Xu Jianping always sets traps when acting. When everyone is eating, he can only say that he feels uncomfortable all over and can't eat.
This made both Mr. and Mrs. Tang feel guilty.
Later, Xu Yu still felt a little sorry for his second brother, so he asked the restaurant to pack some food and said to them, "Wait for your second brother to go to the car to rest, and then I will treat him and see if he can eat in the afternoon."
After dinner, Director Wu and the other two went back to work.
Director Wu said to Xiao Tang, "I'll give you half a day off this afternoon. Go with me and take care of Comrade Xu."
Xiao Tang was originally planning to ask for leave, so he nodded at him.
Mother Tang glanced at Xu Jianping and wanted to say something, but finally kept her mouth shut.
After separating from the three people, Xu Yu and the others went straight to their house.
There was no one on the street at this time. When they were almost near their house, Xu Yu said to Xu Jianping, "Second brother, you don't have to pretend anymore."
Xu Jianping was finally able to walk properly on his own. He straightened his back and stretched his arms and legs. Then he complained, "Sister, you hit me too hard!"
Xu Yu replied: "If I don't hit you harder, how can I make everyone believe that you are miserable?"
Xiao Tang looked at Xu Yu, then at Xu Jianping, his eyes widened in confusion and he forgot what to say.
Zhu Juncheng and the other three were stunned for a moment before they guessed what was going on.
Zhu Juncheng smiled and gave Xu Yu a thumbs up: "Sister-in-law, you are really amazing. You can make Comrade Xu look so miserable."
Yan Liang also asked a question that puzzled everyone: "Sister-in-law, how did you make the doctor think that Comrade Xu was beaten so badly?"
Everyone stared at Xu Yu.
A group of people had already walked to the front door of the house. Xu Yu deliberately kept it a secret and said, "Keep it a secret for now. I'll tell you after you finish your work today."
All the other workers who came to work were already waiting in the yard.
Xu Yu asked Xu Jianping to lie down in the car and rest.
Xu Jianping also knew that he had to perform the whole show, so he went up.
Xu Yu pulled Xiao Tang into the car.
Hay and straw mats were specially laid behind the carport. As long as Jiang Yi didn't go back at night, the men would sleep on them for the next few days.
Jiang Yi and his team went in to work first.
As soon as they got in the car, Xiao Tang couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Xiao Yu, how did you do that?"
