Divorce with three kids? I'll build a house and eat meat, driving my in-laws crazy.

Chapter 132 It's peaceful on the mountain, you should stay there.

She had only ever considered Fang Xingzhi as her savior and hadn't thought much more about it.

Looking back now, he was the Master, and he appeared in Chenjia Village. Who else could he be but her future neighbor?

She had prepared a large meal to entertain him. His clothes were soaked, so she brought him some food. He was a germaphobe and wanted to eat separately, which she agreed to, and she even set aside a lot of food for him.

Looking back now, Li Ruru feels that her kindness was wasted.

She thought they got along quite well, but to her surprise, the other party complained that she was noisy and even went to the village head's house to complain and asked to move to another place.

If it weren't for the fact that he was her savior, Li Ruru would have chased him away with a broom long ago.

what!
Fang Xingzhi felt inexplicably afraid when he saw Li Ruru was angry.

Then he thought that they were not related, so why should he be afraid of a village woman?

He hasn't done anything wrong; he just wants to live in a quieter place. What's wrong with that?

He cleared his throat and said, "Well, Aunt Li, I... I've always preferred quiet."

This means that he would stay away from noisy people, regardless of who they were, and it wasn't directed at Li Ruru's family.

Seeing Fang Xingzhi's discomfiture, with his eyes darting around and Li Ruru refusing to back down, the village head felt that the sunshine after the rain was exceptionally bright, and a beautiful rainbow hung in the sky.

Li Ruru sat down opposite the two of them with a nonchalant air, glanced at Fang Xingzhi, and said, "Who's the auntie? Please, you're older than me."

He was her savior before, and she didn't care what she called him.

At that moment, this person was chirping at her from behind, and she couldn't stand the sight of him.

Fang Xingzhi was also a man of flexibility, and immediately changed his words, saying, "Madam Li, please calm down."

"What 'wife'? Will it kill you to read them together?"

"No, Madam Li... Madam Li!"

"..." Li Ruru was speechless. She continued, "You just said you like peace and quiet, right?"

"Hmm." Fang Xingzhi told himself not to be afraid and to say whatever came to mind, but he still felt inexplicably nervous when faced with Li Ruru's question.

"It's peaceful up in the mountains, you can stay there," Li Ruru said coldly.

There's no one on the mountain, so no one will bother him.

If he's willing to live next to wild animals, that's not out of the question.

Li Ruru then said gently to the village head, "Uncle Da, he likes quiet. Our house is too noisy. Please find him another place."

The village head, puffing on his pipe, coldly refused: "There's no other suitable place in the village."

After saying that, he patted Fang Xingzhi on the shoulder and said, "Brother, the people in the village all have loud voices. Everyone lives their lives behind closed doors."

It means it's the same everywhere, nobody cares about your fussiness, you can just bear with it.

Fang Xingzhi lowered his head, not knowing what to say, and Li Ruru also got up to take her leave.

The two went out together and walked along a country road that had just been rained on.

The air was humid, the setting sun painted the sky red, and the lush green wheat had already sprouted ears; it would be ready to harvest in a little over a month.

Everything was perfect, except for the expressions on their faces.

Arriving at Li Ruru's house, Fang Xingzhi watched as Li Ruru went inside on her own, and stopped in his tracks, unsure of what to do.

The house hasn't been built yet, so he has nowhere to live.

Li Ruru, the only one who was enthusiastic towards him, was offended by him.

"Aren't you coming in? Are you waiting for me to drag you in?" Li Ruru turned around and said irritably.

She wasn't angry at his germaphobia or his dislike of noise, but at the fact that he didn't tell her and instead went to complain to the village head.

This kind of backstabbing behavior is very disgusting.

"You're not angry anymore?" Fang Xingzhi was a little puzzled. He had heard that women were petty and held grudges, and some things could even be remembered for a lifetime.

“I’m angry, but one thing at a time, you’re my savior.”

This is an indisputable fact. As soon as the two entered the courtyard, they saw a large group of people already waiting there.

"Godmother," Xiao Yishan ran over and said, "Everyone's been found, can we start construction now?"

"What kind of work?" Li Ruru asked.

"Of course it's to build a house for Master Fang," Chu Xiu answered quickly. He was a little puzzled as to why his godmother had forgotten about it after coming back from her trip.

"Oh." Li Ruru looked at the people Xiao Yishan had found; they were all children from the village who were about his age.

Seeing Fang Xingzhi standing far away without saying a word, she sighed and said, "Let's cover it up."

Good, it's good to get it built sooner so he can have some peace and quiet sooner.

Chu Xiu ran over to help, showing no airs of a young master and quickly becoming one of the group.

Chu Xiu, who was busy with his work, was unaware that his father had already arranged a marriage for him.

His future wife is Bai Lu.

White House.

Bai Lu said angrily, "I don't agree, I don't agree to marry him."

Madam Bai sipped her tea slowly and deliberately, and after a long while, she advised, "He is the son of the county magistrate. He has both good character and good looks. What makes him unworthy of you?"

They didn't even look down on you because you're a merchant's daughter, and you still don't want to sleep with them? That's ridiculous.

Bai Lu didn't know the magistrate's son, but she knew the magistrate's nephew, Chu Yu.

In her opinion, Chu Yu was no good, and the magistrate's son was certainly no better.

If he were as good as Madam Bai said, he would have been snatched away and married by someone else long ago, and there would be no chance for her.

Besides, what good could a person like that Madam Bai introduced her to be?

"You just want to marry me off early so the Bai family can control everything, right? Let me tell you, you can forget about it."

I don't agree to this marriage. My father said that no matter who it is, if I don't want to marry, I don't have to.

Madam Bai rubbed her forehead: "Are you out of your mind? Did I force you? I was just mentioning it out of kindness."

She frowned and continued, "Logically speaking, our Bai family is far from being able to climb up to the county magistrate, and officials would look down on us businessmen."

They only agreed to let you meet first because of me. If it suits you, you can get married as soon as possible. The county magistrate wants to have a grandson soon.

Madam Xue was the former sister-in-law of Magistrate Chu. Magistrate Chu was eager for his son to get married as soon as possible, and out of respect for her, he agreed.

Madam Bai had planned everything in advance. As long as she married Bai Lu off, and since the master was often away from home, the Bai family would be under her control.

Chu Xiu's marriage to Bai Lu was a way of compromising his future; without a powerful father-in-law and wife, his future path would be limited.

If her son passes the imperial examination, given Magistrate Chu's fondness for him, he will surely help him with all his might, and thus the Chu family will become her son's.

In this way, whether it's the Chu family or the Bai family, the future belongs to Chu Yu.

Madam Bai was very satisfied with her plan. She thought Bai Lu would be so happy that she would kneel down and kowtow in gratitude, and would be eager to marry the magistrate's son immediately.

Unexpectedly, Bai Lu refuted her without giving a chance to explain and directly rejected her.

Seeing that the plan was about to end before it even began, Madam Bai was extremely anxious: "Silly girl, think about it carefully, I would never harm you."

Bai Lu was so angry she almost laughed. Did she want to hear what kind of joke she was telling?

The person most likely to harm her is her stepmother.

"Since the magistrate's son is so wonderful, then you should marry him. I wish you a long and happy marriage and many children."

Bai Lu rolled her eyes. This way, Magistrate Chu wouldn't have to hold his grandson anymore; he could just hold his son directly. How wonderful!

Anyway, Xue is the kind of person who clings to power and wealth; marrying her father would be worse than marrying her ex-husband's younger brother.

After Bai Lu finished speaking, she flicked her sleeves and was about to leave when Madam Bai stopped her, saying, "Take a look at this first, and then we'll decide whether you agree or not."
