Chapter 309: Chapter 218 Initial Break-in_2

Upon learning that Chuxia was getting married to an old man, mother and daughter showed their disdain but also felt somewhat envious.

Even if the military officer she was marrying was older, at most in his forties, once the old officer passed away, remarrying would still be worthwhile. With the old officer’s assets, could the man she remarries be bad?

Thinking so, mother and daughter couldn’t help but want to snatch the man Chuxia was marrying, but unfortunately, such things can’t be achieved by mere thought.

They still had to live their own lives, so they visited their grandmother’s house even more diligently. But upon returning this time, they found the Iron General guarding the door and didn’t see Zhao Yufeng return even by noon, so they went to Old Master Zhao and Old Lady Zhao’s place, only to be received by Qihui.

Then, from Qihui’s mouth, mother and daughter learned that the whole family had gone to City A to attend Lin Chuxia’s wedding.

To dispatch a large vehicle for the occasion, was that the action of an ordinary household?

Struggling to find a match recently, mother and daughter had a brainwave—Chuxia was marrying a soldier. So wouldn’t everyone attending the wedding be soldiers too?

What a great opportunity to find a son-in-law!

So, in perfect agreement, they got Qiliang’s address in City A, took all their money, put on their finest clothes, packed their little parcels, and set off on their journey. Little did they know, they’d be robbed clean before even reaching their destination.

Over the past few days, mother and daughter became more and more confused, their minds a cluttered mess, which was why they didn’t respond to Chuxia’s calling them for half a day, not realizing at the moment where their minds had wandered off, how could they hear Chuxia’s shouts?

But wasn’t it said that Chuxia was marrying an old head of a regiment? This... how did it turn out to be a man in his twenties?

After all this, it turned out Lin Chuxia wasn’t marrying the regiment leader. Actually, was it the driver for the regiment leader? Or the regiment leader’s orderly?

Even after being taken to the ancestral home, mother and daughter were still dazed.

Upon seeing Zhao Yufeng, Lin Xiaohua couldn’t help but howl loudly.

As for Zhao Qiyan, she threw herself into Old Lady Zhao’s arms, crying and sobbing uncontrollably.

"Seeing her silhouette on the road, she resembled Auntie, so we turned back to look, and couldn’t believe it was really her," Chuxia briefly explained how they encountered Lin Xiaohua, then left with Zhou Mikang.

According to tradition, the night of returning to the husband’s family is spent dining with the elders. After such an ordeal and with evening approaching, any further delay would be a great rudeness.

Old Master Zhao and others, upon seeing Xiaohua and her daughter, can only imagine the extent of their surprise. After the cries and complaints, everyone was left with a cold sweat—if they hadn’t run into Chuxia, directing her to A Teacher would have been truly embarrassing!

Okay, it seemed like everyone willingly ignored what would have happened if the mother and daughter couldn’t find Chuxia and were deceived...

After the ordeal, both Chuxia and Zhou Mikang’s anger had mostly dissipated. Thinking of Mikang’s earlier behavior, Chuxia felt her previous entanglements were pointless and took the initiative to apologize, "Sorry, I shouldn’t have blamed you indiscriminately."

Chuxia had truly apologized, causing Mikang to feel abashed, "How can you be blamed? It’s my fault. I’m a grown man, much older than you, and still I acted childishly. It’s all my fault."

"Actually, neither of us is at fault. It’s just that our perspectives differ, and there was a communication issue. I got angry earlier not because you didn’t help Wang Meifeng. I know very well what kind of person she is. She has never treated me properly since we were kids. Why would she suddenly be so nice now? How could I not know?

Besides, it’s better to destroy ten temples than to break a single marriage. Why would I satisfy her desires just for vain face, thereby causing her marriage with the Qiang Family to fall apart?

What I wanted was for you to seriously consider my requests, right or wrong, and then respond to me. That’s the least respect deserved.

Of course, if you were to make requests of me, I must also seriously consider them before responding, not just refuse based on my direct judgment."

Although Chuxia patiently explained, to Mikang it still seemed unnecessary, but this time he offered no objection and nodded happily, "Sure, I’ll be mindful of that."

"I don’t like you treating me as a child. I am now your wife, the person who is to accompany you for life. If you only see me as a child, then our marriage lacks an equality..." pausing, Chuxia continued, "Is that really the kind of marriage you want?"

Mumbling to himself "You are still a child," he dared not say this aloud, yet lying was not in his character, so he simply nodded, saying nothing more.

Chuxia could roughly guess his thoughts and sighed silently to herself. Two people from different worlds seeking good communication wasn’t something achievable in just a few days of adjustment.

Perhaps, she had to be prepared for a prolonged battle. Yet, she believed that one day they would harmoniously coexist, bolstered by his performance over the past few days, giving her firm confidence.

All their interactions were witnessed by Driver Little Wang, making him, who had never had a girlfriend, sweat profusely, while internally he wondered if it was better not to marry at all. He felt that marriage was really troublesome, women were really troublesome, and appeasing a woman was even more troublesome. If the Third Young Master couldn’t handle it, how could he...(Story to be continued. If you enjoy this work, please support us at qidian.com by voting and donating.
