Luo Dashan and Luo Zhiyong were also upset with Zhang Jianguo, and when Zhou Yuni hit Zhang Jianguo, neither of them spoke up, letting Zhou Yuni have her way.
Seeing that the beating was about to end, Luo Zhiyong stretched out his hand to stop Zhou Yuni, "Mom, that’s enough for now, let’s first discuss what to do about this."
"What to do? There’s only getting married ahead of schedule." Zhou Yuni’s anger subsided, and her mind beca clear.
Luo Zhiyong held the sa thought, and he turned around to speak to Zhang Jianguo, "Jianguo, in that case, go back and call your parents over, let’s discuss this matter today and look for a good day soon to officially get the marriage certificate."
"I..." Zhang Jianguo still hesitated and didn’t move.
Luo Zhiyong frowned at him, "What, you want to say again that the day isn’t right and we must wait until the end of the year?"
Before Zhang Jianguo could answer, Zhou Yuni, furious, raised her hand and struck him with a stick again, hissing nacingly at him, "I’m telling you, if you still refuse to marry our Cuilan this ti, I’ll report you to the police station, saying you raped our Cuilan, and I’ll make sure you rot in prison."
"Mom, don’t speak so harshly, we are already engaged, what do you an by ’raped’..." Luo Cuilan began but then stopped, embarrassed to go on with the final word.
Zhou Yuni, infuriated by Luo Cuilan defending Zhang Jianguo, swung her stick and hit Luo Cuilan on the back, cursing bitterly, "Would you rather just admit openly that you seduced this man and got yourself pregnant?"
"Mom, stop it, it’ll be bad if the neighbors hear this and think poorly of us." Luo Zhiyong, seeing Zhou Yuni raising her voice as if starting another argunt, quickly held her back, then turned to Zhang Jianguo, "Jianguo, you go back first, have your parents co over after lunch, and let’s talk about your marriage. Whatever it takes, you must get married this ti."
Zhang Jianguo, still sowhat afraid of Luo Zhiyong, nodded and stood up to leave.
Seeing Zhang Jianguo leave, Zhou Yuni then directed all her anger toward Luo Cuilan, pointing at her and grinding her teeth, "I don’t care about saving face, if I cannot deal with you, then I don’t need such a daughter, it’s as if you were never born."
"Our Luo family has always been proper and well-behaved generation after generation; this shaless girl has thrown our ancestors’ face, were it not for fear of bad gossip, I’d personally kick her out of our Luo family."
Luo Cuilan tired of being insulted by Zhou Yuni, began to cry, and while crying she retorted, "Don’t act like the Luo family is sothing so great, it’s just my brother taking so minor role in the army, nothing special. If you really think I am dishonorable, I don’t want to get married either, I’ll just take my belongings and move to Jianguo’s house. His parents said the sa thing, it’s just that you disagreed."
"You..."
Before Zhou Yuni’s stick could land, Luo Cuilan had already been slapped fiercely twice on the face.
Luo Dashan, who had been silent since entering the door, withdrew his hand from hitting Luo Cuilan, his veins bulging with anger. He pointed to the door and roared at Luo Cuilan, "If you want to leave, leave right now. Don’t ever co back to our Luo family, I’ll consider you dead. In the future, when your mother and I are old, don’t even think of taking care of us. Just get out imdiately."
Luo Dashan is usually honest and gentle, especially fond of children.
Though not the richest in the household, he always treated his kids affectionately, rarely ever raising his voice or the likes, and this was the first ti he hit anyone.
During the previous incident with Luo Cuilan, although he was angry, he only grounded her and didn’t let her leave the house.
This ti he got physical, and truly shocked the entire Luo Family.
Seeing him so angry that his face turned red and his veins were bulging, Fang Pingying, afraid that he might burst a blood vessel from his rage, hurried to pull him aside to sit down, pouring him a glass of water. "Dad, don’t be too angry. Take it slow. Cuilan was just too upset when she said those things, she knows you all want what’s best for her."
Zhou Yuni had been married to Luo Dashan for many years and rarely saw him lose his temper like this.
This ti, however, she was calm. She walked over to Luo Dashan, patting his back to help him relax, "Yes, old man, don’t you know your own daughter’s temperant? She speaks without thinking, don’t be so angry."
"Cuilan, go and apologize to Dad." Luo Zhiyong looked at Luo Cuilan with a very stern expression,
"Do you think the family is just ashad of you? If that were true, it might actually be better to just follow your own plan, taking your belongings to the Zhang family. Why else would we keep saying we want to prepare a dowry for you? Ultimately, the family cares about you and wants you to marry with dignity."
Speaking, Luo Zhiyong also sighed helplessly, "But you’ve made such a ss of things, making it seem like nobody wants you, insisting on marrying into the Zhang family, and even considering agreeing to Zhang family’s suggestion for you not to keep the child."
Luo Cuilan didn’t dare to argue against Luo Zhiyong’s words, and knowing she had spoken too harshly earlier, went over to Luo Dashan, crying and saying, "Dad, I was wrong. I didn’t know what to do, I panicked, and said things I shouldn’t have."
Seeing Luo Cuilan like this, Luo Dashan felt sowhat heartbroken, his eyes reddened, but eventually, he said nothing and just sighed, instructing Zhou Yuni,
"Prepare dinner early, call back Zhiming and the others in the afternoon, have a talk with the Zhang family about their marriage, and sort out these matters sooner. We can’t leave it to the Zhang family anymore."
Luo Zhiyong heard this and nodded, "Let’s do as Dad says. Pingying, help mom prepare the al."
Fang Pingying nodded and went to the kitchen to cook.
Luo Honglan had co back at so point and had been staying in the kitchen.
Seeing Fang Pingying co out, she sneakily glanced outside and asked, "Sister-in-law, what’s wrong with my sister? It seems like I heard her crying."
Fang Pingying knew she couldn’t keep Luo Honglan in the dark and directly told her, "Your sister is pregnant. Mom and Dad lost their temper and hit both your sister and Jianguo."
Luo Honglan was extrely surprised, "Ah, my sister is pregnant again? Wasn’t it last ti..."
Rembering Luo Cuilan’s previous ordeal, Fang Pingying touched Luo Honglan’s head and whispered softly, "Honglan, rember, never make the sa mistakes as your sister. No matter the situation, stand up for yourself. You can devote yourself to loving soone, but never lose your essential dignity,"
Luo Honglan still didn’t quite understand these matters, but knew they weren’t good.
She nodded affirmatively, saying firmly, "Sister-in-law, don’t worry, I won’t be like my sister."
Fang Pingying looked at her reassuringly and smiled, "Good, you start cooking. I need to go back to my parents’ house to call your second brother and his wife. This afternoon, our whole family needs to discuss your sister’s marriage with the Zhang family." (To be continued.
