They've all separated, so what does it matter to me if they get poorer and poorer?

Chapter 129 Collect some interest
"Sister-in-law Zhichun, here's some hot water for you."

Liang Chunfen boiled water, poured it back and forth between two teacups until it cooled to a warm temperature, then poured half a bowl and brought it to Xu Zhichun.

"Thank you for the Spring Equinox."

Xu Zhichun smiled as she took the hot water, held it in her hands, and slowly drank two sips. The warm tea flowed down her throat and into her stomach, and her wildly beating heart and uncontrollable trembling finally calmed down.

Xu Zhichun looked up and saw a mixture of worry, confusion, and helplessness on Shangliang Chunfen's face. Her heart warmed, and she smiled.

"spring equinox."

"Ah, Sister-in-law Zhichun."

"Don't tell anyone about the fact that we went to my aunt's house today, not even your mother."

"Ah."

"If anyone asks us if we've been to my aunt's house, just say no."

"it is good"

"I'll definitely remember."

"Okay, Sister Zhichun."

"If anyone asks about your aunt's family, you should always say you don't know."

"Uh-huh."

"Got it?"

"Remember!"

Liang Chunfen nodded vigorously, somewhat puzzled and clumsy as she comforted Xu Zhichun: "Sister-in-law Zhichun, I've remembered everything. Please, don't be sad, okay?"

Xu Zhichun was taken aback, then smiled gently and nodded: "I'm not sad."

Liang Chunfen looked at her and smiled.

Xu Zhichun thought to herself that from now on, Chunfen would be just like Mingxuan in her heart. As long as he was there, he would never let anyone bully her or let her suffer.

"You keep an eye on my house. No one is allowed to enter my house except for Xiaoyan, Brother Liang, and Aunt Zhu'er."

"Ok!"

Xu Zhichun went to Liang Lizheng's house.

Upon seeing Aunt Liang, and recalling what had just happened, Xu Zhichun's eyes immediately welled up with tears. "Aunt Liang!"

Aunt Liang was startled: "Zhichun, what's wrong? Come in, come inside quickly, tell me slowly. Don't cry, don't cry, oh dear, what happened?"

Xu Zhichun shed a few tears, her eyes red as she looked at Aunt Liang: "Aunt Liang, my aunt and uncle are forcing me to remarry. I don't want to, Aunt Liang! Our two families have clearly separated. I don't understand what's bothering them. Why are they forcing me to remarry? They're very firm, saying I have to marry no matter what. I have no choice but to ask for your help."

"In my heart, there is only clarity. I am his person in life and in death. If anyone tries to force me to remarry, I will either kill myself or jump off a cliff again rather than obey."

Xu Zhichun covered her face and burst into tears as she spoke.

Aunt Liang was stunned. She couldn't help but hug Xu Zhichun and pat her gently. She was furious: "Don't cry, don't cry, don't be sad. Aunt Liang and your village head will definitely stand up for you! This is outrageous! How can an elder force his niece to remarry? Our clan can't afford to lose face like this! They are really confused."

Xu Zhichun really started crying, her face streaked with tears. While crying, she expressed her determination, gratitude, and bitterly denounced the Zhang couple, saying that she would never remarry and that if they forced her, she would die.

Aunt Liang asked her grandson to call Liang Lizheng, who was visiting, back home.

Upon hearing this, Liang, the village head, also darkened his face: "Those two are really crazy! Zhichun, don't worry, and don't be afraid. This matter doesn't count for them; it's your own decision that matters. You may not know, but before Mingxuan went to the county school in the city, he came to pay his respects to me and asked me to look after you in everything. That boy has a conscience; he cares about you. Don't be afraid; you're not alone!" Xu Zhichun was stunned, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

Did Mingxuan actually come to see the village head?

Good, good, she didn't spoil him for nothing.

Liang Lizheng was very angry. Aunt Liang went to find Zhang Shi herself and asked a villager who was idle at home to go to the fields at the entrance of the village to find Uncle Liang and bring him back. She also invited Fourth Aunt, Sixth Grandfather, and others to make things clear today.

Zhang and Uncle Liang had something to hide and refused to come at all, but how could that be possible?
Liang Li was about to call them over; could they possibly escape?
The more you hide, the more you'll become a laughing stock and lose face.

The couple had no choice but to bite the bullet and go.

Uncle Liang had no chance to collude with Zhang. He was worried about Zhang's loose tongue and her unreliable nonsense, while also resenting Xu Zhichun for not knowing what was good for her.

If Xu Zhichun really tells everything, then don't blame him for being impolite.
Upon seeing the two of them, Xu Zhichun said with tears in her eyes, "Uncle, Aunt, I will never remarry. Give up on this idea! If you force me, I would rather die again. If you want my life, just force me."

Fourth Aunt and Aunt Liang hurriedly spat, "Pah, pah, pah!"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"Amitabha! Children speak without restraint! Children speak without restraint!"

Everyone in the room was furious and angrily rebuked Uncle Liang and Zhang.

Uncle Liang and his wife were both scolded and dumbfounded.

So, Xu Zhichun only said this?

She didn't mention the fact that Zhang was colluding with Lian Laosi.

The two secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but when they came to their senses, they were so angry that their livers ached.

That Xu is very cunning.

If she brings up Lian Lao Si's affair, they can simply insist that she's no longer innocent and must marry him. Lian Lao Si's side will definitely cooperate.

But she didn't mention it at all. Did they think they could bring it up themselves?
Can they say they schemed against her and Lian Laosi?

Uncle Liang was still unwilling to give up after thinking about it, and said with a forced smile, "Zhichun, we meant well. Lian Laosi came to our house today to meet you. Didn't you meet him? Don't you really want to consider it? He's a good person to settle down with. Wouldn't it be nice to have someone to keep you company in the future?"

"Uncle, what are you saying!" Xu Zhichun exclaimed in shock. "My eldest cousin's wife came to see me today and asked me to come to your house. She said that my aunt wanted to talk to me about remarrying. I didn't want to at all, so I didn't go. My eldest cousin's wife also said that it was your decision, and I had to marry her whether I wanted to or not. I was so scared that I was restless all afternoon. I thought about it over and over again and rushed here to beg Aunt Liang to make the decision. What matchmaking? What Lian Lao Si? I don't know anything about it."

Uncle Liang was taken aback and subconsciously looked at Zhang.

He wasn't home at the time. Why didn't Xu Zhichun go to his house? He didn't know.

Zhang was shocked and almost jumped up: "You're lying through your teeth! You went, you definitely went! You were with that Lian Lao Si—"

Xu Zhichun threw herself into Aunt Liang's arms and burst into tears, crying loudly, "Aunt Liang, my aunt is trying to force me to my death, waaaaah!"

Enraged, Fourth Aunt and the others repeatedly scolded Zhang, "You old woman, can't you speak properly? Is this how an aunt should act?"

"Exactly! Putting aside whether this matchmaking is appropriate or not, even if it is, you can't say such shameless things. Oh dear, you really have no shame. Even if you don't care about your reputation, you can't slander a child like this."

"Listen to this, listen to this! What kind of talk is this!"

Uncle Liang roared, "Zhang, if you dare to slander someone like this without any evidence, it's almost the same as murder! Don't you think about yourself or Liang Mingxiang? If you continue like this, our Liangjia Village will not tolerate you!"
