29: Chapter 29: Urging to Marry 29: Chapter 29: Urging to Marry Tang Chuxia gave her grandma a thumbs-up, “Right!”
Absolutely right!
So, she ca and dumped the jerk and imdiately tried to hook up with soone more appealing.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t easy to seduce.
Grandma rolled her eyes at her, “Right, aren’t you going to hurry up and find soone?”
Tang Chuxia: …
This…
She had thought Grandma would say to take her ti, to choose carefully, but it turned out Grandma was also urging her to get married!
“Grandma, I’m still young!”
Tang Chuxia declared shalessly.
Two years after graduating from high school, she was almost twenty and had already had an engagent called off.
Grandpa, who was watching, revealed his false teeth, his smile as fake as could be.
“Right, right, right, our Xiaxia is young, no need to rush!”
It were better when he kept quiet.
As soon as he spoke, Grandma pointed at his forehead, “You have the nerve to say that?
Look at your grandson outside, younger than Xiaxia, even he knows how to give gifts to young girls, dreaming of getting them into his bed.”
Zheng Daqing, who was in the yard, imdiately shouted, “Grandma, you wrong !”
Grandma let out a scoffing laugh, “I wrong you?
Then who was secretly washing the sheets yesterday?”
Zheng Daqing’s face turned as red as a monkey’s butt.
Nearby, his unscrupulous cousins laughed until they doubled over.
They had been standing firmly, but now they couldn’t take it anymore and burst out laughing, falling to the ground, pounding on it.
“Grandma, Daqing is almost eighteen, wetting the bed is quite normal!”
Tang Chuxia added fuel to the fire in a tily manner.
Zheng Daqing yelled, “Cousin, be a human being!”
Tang Chuxia innocently blinked, “Did I say sothing wrong?
Was it not bed-wetting?
I’m still young and don’t understand these things!”
Zheng Daqing:￣□￣｜｜
The two Tang brothers were laughing so hard that their stomachs hurt, even Grandma couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing.
This kid…
Eventually, Zheng Daqing forced Tang Chuxia to agree to treat him to a good al, and only then did he let her off.
Because Tang Chuxia was visiting, Grandma sent her grandson and the old man to buy groceries.
“They’re both out, now tell Grandma the truth, just letting that guy off like that?”
Grandma handed Tang Chuxia a roasted sweet potato, and she too sat next to the stove and started eating.
Tang Chuxia shook her head, “It’s not that easy, even without Tang Wanqiu, Hu Mingcheng wouldn’t be interested in !”
Her health was too poor, truly not suited for childbirth.
Madam Tang had made it clear to the Hu Family, if Tang Chuxia got married and couldn’t have children, they shouldn’t hassle her for it.
Yet, the Hu Family still insisted on continuing the engagent, and now they’ve called it off.
Do they think they can do whatever they want?
“Besides, he thinks he can have a promising future relying on Tang Wanqiu?
Then I will directly ruin his prospects and see what he can do!”
Tang Chuxia wasn’t being cruel; Hu Mingcheng was just too confident.
“That’s more like it, but ruining his prospects, what’s the point?
Didn’t he sche to get you sent to the countryside?
Send him instead!”
Grandma really hit the nail on the head.
“But Hu Mingcheng is still in college, how could he possibly be sent to the countryside?”
After all, last year the college entrance exams were finally restored, and Hu Mingcheng barely made it into university with his scores.
Regardless, he was indeed a college student.
Grandma smiled, “This is simple, just have soone check if his university registration na is really Hu Mingcheng.”
Tang Chuxia was puzzled, not understanding what she ant.
“The na on his university admission notice is Hu Chunsheng!”
Tang Chuxia: …
An idea suddenly popped into her mind, making her eyes widen.
To tell the truth, she had heard of such things in her previous life, but by her generation, these cases of identity replacent had beco quite rare.
She had only read about them in historical cases—never expecting to encounter a live one right before her eyes.
She couldn’t help but dig through the original owner’s mories, only to recall that Hu Mingcheng was older than her by two grades.
After high school, to avoid being sent to the countryside, he had secured a job through his father’s connections.
After the restoration of the college entrance exams, he had studied for three months before taking the exams.
At that ti, because of Tang Chuxia’s physical condition, she wasn’t able to participate and didn’t pay much attention; she only knew that Hu Mingcheng had gotten into university afterward.
So things beco clear once you start to dig deeper.
“I only found out through your eldest uncle’s investigation that such matters absolutely cannot be tolerated!”
In the eyes of her strict grandmother, such actions were the worst.
It was only because Tang Chuxia acted swiftly to break off the engagent, otherwise, the old lady might have broken Tang Chuxia’s legs.
Tang Chuxia chuckled dryly, “Definitely, this must be illegal, right?
Can we report him to the police?”
Upon ntioning this, the old lady sighed, “This is actually hard to handle, there’s no legislation against it; at most, his student status can be revoked!”
The relevant issues were beyond Tang Chuxia’s understanding, so she took her grandmother’s word for it.
“But leveraging this issue, it might be possible to have him sent to the countryside!”
In the era Tang Chuxia ca from, the movents to send urban youth down to the countryside finished in this year, but there were still youths going to the countryside, although not mandatory.
Voluntary relocation was an option.
It was a good thing she had a cousin who studied history, otherwise Tang Chuxia might still be unaware of these details, which she now retrieved from the depths of her mories.
To make life difficult for Hu Mingcheng, Tang Chuxia didn’t care about the ans.
Having traveled into this novel, Tang Chuxia realized many things were different from her own era, unsure of how things would pan out—just making Hu Mingcheng spend half a year in the countryside could break him.
Rubbing her hands together, Tang Chuxia ingratiatingly massaged her grandmother’s legs.
“You’ve worried too much, grandma!”
Grandma scolded with a laugh, “Children are such debts!”
Joining in the laughter, Tang Chuxia was speaking when she heard voices at the courtyard entrance and looked up.
Before she could see clearly, a robust woman rushed in and clung crying to Grandma’s calves.
Tang Chuxia instinctively stepped back, sowhat frightened by the scene.
Looking again at her grandmother, the old lady remained calm as usual, even taking a sip of her tea.
“Mother, you must take my side!”
The robust woman’s cries were loud, but it was all noise, no substance.
“What is it now?”
Grandma’s tone was impatient as if she already knew what the woman was about to do.
“What else could it be?
My child’s father is actually asking for a divorce to marry Su Lan!
I waited for him for ten years, raised the children, and he cos back not to live well with but to keep fawning over that vixen—it’s killing !”
Tang Chuxia was puzzled; she had only a faint mory of this woman from the original owner’s recollections and didn’t understand much more, only able to look towards her grandmother.
Grandma uttered a sound of acknowledgent and shouted into the courtyard, “Youngest, if you still recognize as your mother, co in here and kneel down!”
Soon, a man as thin as a sheet walked in, not uttering a word before kneeling in front of Grandma.
“Mother, I can’t not divorce her—Cui Xiang keeps wanting to father her children, and at this rate, I’ll be exhausted to death!”
Tang Chuxia: (⊙_⊙)?
