Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Brothers’ Sa Style
Wu Xia and his family were all stunned by the grandeur of the procession.
This wasn’t a marriage proposal; it was clearly a play for the money, suggesting they’d do anything for it.
Wu Xia glanced at the crowd, noting that a few of the won were quite attractive.
However, they were all fellow villagers, and if he took them as mistresses, it would complicate things whenever he went out.
"Everyone, please calm down!"
Wu Xia waved his hand, "I’m already engaged to Lin Jiao, so please don’t harbor any feelings for ."
"But my brother here is still single, he’s working with
now, and you can help him settle the big issue of marriage!"
Saying this, he pulled Tiezhu to the front: "Tiezhu, see if there’s anyone you like!"
Tiezhu, usually unafraid of heaven and earth, was now blushing like a shy ghost, his face completely red.
People surrounded them, all familiar with Tiezhu, calling him a big fool. No one wanted to marry their daughter off to him.
"Tiezhu is my best brother, an honest and upright guy. Don’t be fooled by his simple appearance, he’s very clear-headed inside!"
Wu Xia spoke up, "If any of you are willing to marry your daughter to Tiezhu, and if Tiezhu likes her, I’ll take care of the bride price and all that!"
"If no one is interested, then please go back ho and don’t waste ti here!"
The crowd that had been so enthusiastic just monts ago suddenly quieted down.
They all knew that marrying a daughter to Wu Xia would be a lift to riches, but marrying off to Tiezhu would be throwing her into the fire.
"I am willing!"
A familiar voice ca from the crowd, and everyone looked puzzled at the speaker.
Wu Xia’s face turned an instant shade of iron blue.
It was none other than Chen Juan, the woman he had slept with just that morning.
Isn’t this just a joke?
If Tiezhu knew that he had already slept with Chen Juan, wouldn’t it be awkward when they t in the future?
"Juan, stop joking around. You’re a college graduate, and Tiezhu doesn’t have much education; you’ll have problems communicating!"
Wu Xia imdiately said firmly.
"Mr. Wu Xia, so what if I’m a college graduate?" Chen Juan spoke with a hint of grievance: "The outside world is too complicated. I too want to find a simple village guy like you, settle down back at ho. It’s not necessary to struggle out there; sooner or later, I will return to my roots!"
"..."
Wu Xia was left speechless, knowing that Chen Juan was being impulsive, but he didn’t know how to reject her.
"Brother Tiezhu, you’ve watched
grow up since I was little; we know each other well. Are you willing to be with ?"
Chen Juan’s face was flushed, and her voice trembled.
She had made this decision with determination.
Tiezhu’s face was even redder than Chen Juan’s, and his eyes sparkled with gold as he nodded excitedly.
"What?"
Now Wu Xia was at a loss and said sternly, "Tiezhu, you..."
"Big hero, let
give it a try, just give it a try!" Tiezhu actually didn’t understand; after all, no girl had ever approached him from childhood to adulthood, so why should he hesitate when soone was willing now?
Chen Juan didn’t really have any other intentions. Firstly, she was genuinely disheartened by the outside world.
Secondly, her heart was already with Wu Xia, leaving no room for others. Marrying Tiezhu was also her way of getting closer to Wu Xia.
Wu Xia was just as helpless, guessing the thoughts of Chen Juan to so extent, but with so many onlookers, he couldn’t say much more.
"Alright then, co with us to the city. It’s a good opportunity for you both to spend ti together, to blend and bond!"
With that, the group got into the vehicles.
Originally, Wu Xia wanted to have Tiezhu and Chen Juan ride with him in the sa car, so he could clarify things properly.
But Ma Yan sohow appeared out of nowhere, wanting to catch a free ride back to the city.
And Du Lijuan also ca with Du Xiaomin, "Xia, Xiaomin also needs to go back to the city, can you give her a lift?"
In the end, Wu Xia, feeling helpless, had to let them squeeze into one car, while he shared another car with the two sisters-in-law and Liu Yuting.
Throughout the journey, Wu Xia was sowhat distracted; Lin Jiao, of course, knew what was on Wu Xia’s mind and, with a hint of a mischievous smile, pinched his arm.
"Now you know you’ve caused trouble, huh? Even rabbits don’t eat the grass by their own burrows!"
Wu Xia, with a face full of dark lines, said, "Don’t joke with , think of a solution, will you?"
"What solution? Xia, what have you done wrong now?"
Zhou Fang, sitting in the passenger seat, turned around curiously, "Jiao, tell
quick, I want the juicy details!"
Lin Jiao didn’t hold back either, telling Zhou Fang all about Wu Xia sleeping with Chen Juan.
"What?" After hearing it, Zhou Fang was incredibly surprised, "Xia, you’ve got so nerve, Juan just got back last night, and this morning she drank pesticide, and you slept with her. She was even intentionally getting close to Tiezhu, could it be just to get closer to you?"
Wu Xia’s face twitched violently; he certainly knew this was the case but didn’t know what else to say.
Liu Yuting, who was driving, was completely stunned. She couldn’t believe Wu Xia could talk about such racy things with his own sister-in-law, leaving her looking at them with a strange glance.
"Xia, these kinds of things, you should just explain directly to Chen Juan, don’t let her ruin herself," said Lin Jiao, "She and Tiezhu are simply not from the sa world anymore."
"Yeah!" Wu Xia nodded, "Once we get there, I’ll talk to them!"
This was the only solution Wu Xia could think of.
When everyone arrived in the city, it was already past five in the afternoon.
Since Du Xiaomin had sothing to do, she left in a hurry after arriving; when leaving, she asked Wu Xia when they would return, left her phone number, and said to catch a ride with them on the way back.
Ma Yan, having been trapped for so long, finally escaped and naturally wouldn’t linger; she greeted and left anxiously.
The remaining group, including Wu Xia, had planned to go to the bank first, but they suddenly received a call from Wu Gang.
"Xia, I’m at the hospital right now. I just saved soone who fainted, and they’re insisting that I hit him and demanding compensation. They also said that until the person wakes up, they won’t let
leave."
Wu Xia imdiately asked for the address and rushed over with everyone.
It was rush hour, so traffic was congested.
By the ti the group reached the hospital, it was already past seven in the evening.
At that mont, Wu Gang was cornered in the corridor by seven or eight nacing people.
"Don’t talk nonsense with ; whether you hit the person or not, it’s your fault, why else would you kindly bring my dad to the hospital?"
"We’re not after your money; our family has plenty of it, we’re well-known figures in the city, would we falsely accuse you?"
"Just admit it quickly, don’t waste everyone’s ti!"
"If I didn’t do it, I didn’t do it, I won’t lie!" Wu Gang said, raising his voice.
"Damn it, you’re still acting tough, huh!"
"Looks like you won’t admit it until you’re taught a lesson!"
A burly man clenched his fists and was about to hit Wu Gang.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, a roar ca from behind, "Who dares to lay a finger on my big brother, I’ll cripple them!"
