Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife

Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Men, Only Affecting the Speed at Which She Makes Money

Second Aunt Lin’s face turned beet red with anger. “What kind of things are you saying? Do you think that’s what I mean? Is it appropriate to take someone away when there’s no one to take care of the house?”

“Inappropriate, true. But if there’s no one from the Lin Family to take care of things, didn’t I hear that Uncle Lin is Guangshan’s uncle? With Guangshan and his family not at home, why didn’t Second Aunt Lin help look after things? Didn’t you know that the Lin Family had two daughters getting married today? Or were you not aware that Guangshan and his family followed Jiayi to her new in-laws?”

Aunt Liu, who stood by, also thought it made sense and hurriedly asked, “Right, when the Lin Family left, didn’t they ask you to look after the house?” There’s still a daughter waiting to get married at home.

Second Aunt Lin didn’t expect to become the target of blame, “What’s it got to do with me? They didn’t ask me to look after anything. Besides, who knew they would be so unreliable with their arrangements, with another daughter waiting to be married and they’re off attending the wedding rituals.”

“That’s true. When I heard both of the Lin Family’s daughters were getting married, I thought everything was taken care of. Who would have thought such a joke could happen?” Aunt Liu agreed, nodding her head.

“Oh, you don’t know, the Lin Family’s second has always been honest, quiet and just knows to work every day. I’m afraid Guangshan and his wife probably forgot they still have a second daughter at home waiting to be married.”

“I heard that their marriage arrangement wasn’t supposed to be like this, seemed like it was changed before?”

Second Aunt Lin cautiously looked around, “Who did you hear that from? Let me tell you, if you were to start on that… Tsk tsk, isn’t it said that Lin Family’s second is too honest…”

Seeing the two inquisitors immediately start to gossip with each other, whispering and making faces, Sun Lanlan pursed her lips and did not go to the Lin Family’s but instead headed straight home.

On the other side, as the tractor left the village, it picked up speed, and Lin Chuxia, worried about her bridal veil being blown off, directly took the corners and tied them two by two together.

Not to mention, it was windproof and also dustproof.

The bridal party, which had been attentively watching over the bride on the vehicle: “…”

Even Qin Yang couldn’t help but curl the corners of his mouth.

Two months ago, he got a letter from home, saying his father’s illness had worsened again, the doctor said it was due to excessive worry and that the illness lingered.

He knew his family would be rushing him to get married again.

He hadn’t planned on getting married, but he felt somewhat guilty hearing this.

Whether or not his father’s sickness was caused by him, his parents did worry about his marriage for many years.

If getting married could ease the minds of his old folks a bit, he could agree to their arrangements, as a way of showing filial piety.

After he wrote back, his family quickly told him about a prospective match, the eldest daughter of the Lin Family from Daqing Mountain Village. He had no objections.

Unexpectedly, last month he received another letter from home, saying that the marriage was switched to the younger daughter of the Lin Family.

He did not care who he was to marry; it was all for fulfilling his parents’ wishes and giving them peace of mind.

Whoever his family arranged for him to marry, that was who it would be. Many of his colleagues got married the same way.

As long as the girl was willing and his mother thought it was a good match, that would be enough.

While he was thinking, “clang” went the tractor, passing over a large pothole.

The men who got on the vehicle stood in the trailer, jolting along.

But it was tough on Lin Chuxia.

Not only was she sitting in the trailer, but having been reborn, she had long forgotten what it felt like to ride a tractor. All she thought about was clasping the side of the vehicle so she wouldn’t jolt too much, completely forgetting her hand.

She only felt her whole body lift off and then land heavily.

Her little face under the veil contorted for a moment; if she hadn’t clenched her molars, she might have made some noise.

Her buttocks, ah!!

Qin Yang was standing right beside her; even through the veil, he could see her twisted expression and couldn’t help but “pfft,” suppressing a chuckle at the corner of his lips.
