My Wife is Actually a top-tier Soldier King?!
Chapter 90 - 90 90 Village Tyrant!

Village Belle!

90: Chapter 90: Village Tyrant!

Village Belle!

The villagers who were watching the commotion gossiped among themselves.

Wu Jie and his companion got out of the car to listen and quickly understood the situation.

Zhu Dacai and Yao Bilan, the couple, had always preferred sons to daughters.

They had long wanted Zhu Cui to get married and earn a hefty bridal price.

But, as it turned out, she failed to get married twice, and despite lowering the bridal price again and again, there were still not many people daring to take her.

Recently.

Zhu Cheng was released from prison after serving his sentence, and he lied soon afterward, claiming he had turned over a new leaf by starting a business.

What happened then?

He emptied the family savings, and not only did he lose everything in cards, but he also borrowed a considerable sum from Lord Bao.

Zhu Zhiang was about to take the college entrance exam, and with his grades it wouldn’t be difficult to get into a university, but where would the tuition and living expenses come from?

Today, the creditor Lord Bao came with a group of men to collect debts.

They had to pay back Zhu Cheng’s debt of one hundred thousand with interest,

or write off the gambling debt, take away one hundred thousand, no wedding banquet, and have Zhu Cui married to him.

For Zhu Dacai and his wife, the second option was obviously the better one!

It would not only help their second son pay off his gambling debts but also make one hundred thousand, which meant their third son could go to university without a problem.

…

“Look at this situation, it seems Cheng Bao must have had his eye on Zhu Cui for a long time, having Zhu Cheng lose in gambling and borrow money probably was just a set-up!”

Zhang Hao, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, looked disdainful.

Lord Bao, real name Cheng Bao.

The Cheng Family was notorious for being domineering and wealthy in Pingle Town.

The brick kiln factory, the brewery, the lumber mill, they were all owned by his family.

In previous years, when the countryside focused heavily on improving water conservancy facilities and building roads to every village, the Cheng Family made a fortune.

In recent years, after Cheng Bao’s father, who had lived a life of debauchery in his youth, became too ill, he retired to convalesce.

Since Cheng Bao took over, he has tightly controlled internet cafes, KTVs, restaurants, and gambling dens, becoming even more ruthless and domineering than his father.

Wu Jie certainly knew Cheng Bao, they were actually middle school classmates, in fact.

Back when they were in school, Mr.

and Mrs.

Wu Jianguo were very strict disciplinarians.

Any slight mistake by Wu Jie would result in a thorough scolding.

Zhang Hao was the quintessential brawny but simple-minded person, who, after failing to get into university, went back home to sell noodles.

Cheng Bao, on the other hand, was quite notorious in middle school for getting into fights and causing trouble.

He paid his way into high school but ended up in prison by his second year for inflicting serious injury on another person.

As a result, Wu Jie knew Cheng Bao, but they had not been in touch for many years.

Even as the two of them stood on the sidelines of the commotion, Cheng Bao could only recognize Zhang Hao.

“Haizhu!!”

Cheng Bao suddenly shouted loudly.

Zhang Hao sighed inwardly, knowing he could not hide.

“Let’s go, we can’t pretend we don’t know each other!”

Wu Jie smiled and nodded.

They walked into the courtyard, Cheng Bao frowned slightly and looked at Wu Jie.

“Hiss…

you…

you’re not ‘Rock’, are you?”

Wu Jie nodded slightly.

‘Rock’ was his nickname back then.

Wu Jie was stubborn, and his father Wu Jianguo was even more so.

In the eighth grade, because Wu Jie refused to cheat on a test, Cheng Bao beat him up.

When parents were called in, Cheng Bao’s father defended his son, only to be beaten up together with his accomplices by Wu Jianguo, leaving them with swollen faces.

Any revenge?

They got beaten up once more.

In the whole town, only the retired veteran Wu Jianguo could be so tough.

“Haha!

Long time no see!”

“Come on, come on, sit down!”

Cheng Bao, with a cigar in his mouth, waved them over repeatedly.

Without getting up, his men immediately fetched long wooden benches from inside the house and offered cigarettes and expensive Chinese cigarettes.

This behavior was as if he was already the master of Zhu’s house.

As soon as they sat down, Cheng Bao looked at Wu Jie with a beaming smile.

“Stone, back in the class you were one of the top students, and I heard you even got into Tianyuan University of Technology, wow, that’s awesome!”

With a quick change of tone, Cheng Bao laughed, “So now you work in Tianyuan?

I hear housing prices there are several tens of thousands per square meter.

Just earning money from a job, it’d be pretty hard to buy a house and settle down, wouldn’t it?”

Wu Jie laughed, “Not hard at all!

I’ve just bought a few!”

Pfft!

Zhang Hao almost burst out laughing, while Cheng Bao’s face froze instantaneously.

Awkward!

With a forced laugh, Cheng Bao tried to play it cool.

“Awesome!

To buy several houses in a big city like Tianyuan, I bet your net worth must be over a hundred million now!

Since you’re so wealthy, don’t forget to look after and take care of your little brother here!”

Wu Jie smirked and shook his head, “Forget about it, with your size and weight, I can’t lift you!”

Cheng Bao roared with laughter, “Stone, you’re getting funnier by the day!”

His gaze shifted, Cheng Bao glanced at Zhang Hao.

“Haizhu, what brings you to Dongfeng Village?

Here to buy pigs or cows?

Your old noodle shop has been open for over a decade without much to show for it.

You might as well sell it to me so I can open a salon instead.”

His tone was flippant, and his gaze scornful.

The Cheng Family had dominated the town for many years, their assets amounting to at least tens of millions.

So naturally, Cheng Bao spoke arrogantly, his eyes full of contempt, looking down on Zhang Hao who sold noodles.

“The whole town knows about the big matchmaker, Auntie Three, who wants to introduce Zhu Cui to my Jie.

We came here to check it out, what’s wrong with that?” Zhang Hao raised his voice, asking loudly in response.

Cheng Bao was taken aback.

“Really?

Am I hearing this correctly?

Stone, you’re a graduate from a prestigious university and a tycoon who made a fortune of hundreds of millions in the big city, and yet you fancy a village widow?”

Cheng Bao stood up, and his whole body of fat jiggled.

With a smile that narrowed his eyes, the slits of his eyes reflected a mocking sharpness.

“City girls are too finicky, I just like pure, down-to-earth country lasses!” Wu Jie replied jokingly.

Cheng Bao laughed with his hands on his hips, “You’re probably afraid that city girls have been through countless relationships, and you might end up being their fall guy by accident, right?”

Zhang Hao interjected to ask:

“Alright, let’s stop the teasing!

Baozi, what are you doing here?

Leaving these two stacks of cash, are you here to propose?”

Cheng Bao glanced toward the main house and laughed with a hehe, “Yeah!

I am here to propose.

I’ve heard for a long time that Zhu Cui of Dongfeng Village is very beautiful, and the key is, Master Liu said that marrying her could further improve my fortune.

So today, I brought a hundred thousand for the proposal!”

“Of course, including the hundred thousand borrowed from my brother-in-law Zhu Cheng, I’m offering a dowry of two hundred thousand, quite the gesture of sincerity!”

No sooner had he finished speaking.

Suddenly!

A teacup flew out from the inner room.

Cheng Bao was too obese, a large target, and with a thud, he was hit squarely.

Luckily, his thick flesh was tough, so no significant harm was done.

But…

“Who the hell threw that?

Huh??”

Cheng Bao exploded in anger.

A fierce shout startled the onlooking villagers nearby, instantly silencing them.

“I threw it, take your filthy money and get lost!!”

From inside the house, a tall and slender woman burst forth.

In her whitened T-shirt, old jeans, and a pair of worn sandals…

Despite her plain clothes, her beauty was undeniable.

Zhu Cui, with her ponytail, big eyes, small nose, and red lips, had very distinct features.

Thanks to long-term farm work in the village, her skin was a healthy wheat color, her voice crisp and loud, and her eyes extremely sharp.

She was a spirited spicy girl!

Wu Jie internally gave her an 85 out of 100.

If she dressed up a bit, she’d score at least ninety.

Was Dongfeng Village’s belle not undeservedly famous?

When Zhu Cui emerged, Cheng Bao was no longer angry.

With a smile on his face, he waved for his men to step aside, and with his bow-legged stride, he approached her with twinkling eyes.

“Look, Cui, your parents haven’t treated you well, and your two brothers are like leeches.

Why bother staying in this home?”

“Marry me!

I guarantee you’ll be happy.

Why would you need to do manual work every day?

You just need to bear children for me, that’s all!”
