Farmer girl swaps husbands: buys a sickly villain and pampers him

Chapter 174 Drama
Su Yaoguang listened intently, and the more she listened, the more gloating she felt.

Seeing her curious expression, Zhou Wangshu said, "Should we call them over and tell you about it?"

"No need. I don't want others to see me looking so gloating. It would damage my image." Su Yaoguang waved her hand. "I'm somewhat famous now, after all."

Zhou Wangshu chuckled.

Those people said that Jiang Yihuan had been groped. Su Yaoguang wasn't surprised when she heard this. After all, there were so many people around. Not to mention that Jiang Yihuan was pretty, any woman who was fully grown would have ended up in the same situation surrounded by wolves. You can imagine how hateful Jiang Yihuan's act of trying to push her into the water was.

"That young man was quite handsome, and he was brought up by that old maid from the Li family who couldn't get married."

"Li Shengnan?"

"Yes, it's Li Shengnan, who's twenty-five and still can't get married. Li Shengnan weighs 180 pounds and looks like a fat pig when she's lying down. Even the seventy-year-old bachelor in the village doesn't want her. But this time, they just pulled one out of the water. I heard that after rescuing him, they carried him straight to their own home."

Su Yaoguang tugged at Zhou Wangshu's sleeve: "Did you hear me?"

Zhou Wangshu drank several cups in a row, his eyes filled with intoxication: "Hmm?"

He looked a little dazed and silly at that moment.

Seeing this, Su Yaoguang quickly stopped him: "My God, you've already finished a whole pot! Who are you trying to kill by drinking so much?"

She pulled Zhou Wangshu up and forbade him to drink anymore.

Zhou Wangshu, carrying the wine jug, followed Su Yaoguang away from the night market stall.

The next day, Zhang Zhaodi excitedly pushed open Su Yaoguang's door, lifted the bed curtains, and said to Su Yaoguang, who was still asleep, "Daughter, get up and watch the show..."

The laughter and chatter abruptly stopped.

Su Yaoguang looked at Zhang Zhaodi groggily: "What's wrong, Mother?"

Zhang Zhaodi glared, her face full of anger.

She looked around the room, found a feather duster, picked it up, and swung it at Su Yaoguang.

"I'll beat you to death, you brat! How old is Wang Shu? How dare you pester him and do such a foolish thing..."

Su Yaoguang had just woken up, her head throbbing badly, and she was completely disoriented. It wasn't until Zhang Zhaodi swung her feather duster that she realized something was wrong. She looked at Zhou Wangshu beside her, their eyes meeting in surprise, and then both of them hurriedly got up and wrapped themselves in the blankets.

"Mother, we just drank too much, we didn't do anything." Su Yaoguang nudged Zhou Wangshu.

Zhang Zhaodi was just putting on an act; she wouldn't actually hit Su Yaoguang. Hearing her say that, she looked at Zhou Wangshu.

Zhou Wangshu pulled Su Yaoguang into his arms and said to Zhang Zhaodi, "Mother, it's true, we just drank too much."

Zhang Zhaodi watched the two being so intimate, a smile flashing in her eyes. But only for a moment, and she quickly straightened her face, saying in a stern voice, "Hurry up and put your clothes on, what kind of mess is this?"

After walking a few steps, she turned back to the two of them and said, "You are still young, you can't rush things, do you hear me?"

Su Yaoguang and Zhou Wangshu: "..."

After Zhang Zhaodi left, Su Yaoguang nudged Zhou Wangshu and said, "Let go."

Zhou Wangshu then released Su Yaoguang.

The two looked at their clothes and, thankfully, they were all dressed properly.

"Will you dare to drink again in the future?" Su Yaoguang glared fiercely at Zhou Wangshu. "I told you long ago that your alcohol tolerance is extremely poor. If you can't, you can't. You just had to pretend to be strong, and now I've been misunderstood." "If I have a poor alcohol tolerance, then do you have a good one? If you have a good alcohol tolerance, why didn't you take me back to my room? It's clear that you drank too much last night and don't remember anything."

Su Yaoguang felt guilty.

He was right.

After she took Zhou Wangshu home, she finished the rest of the wine on the way. Afterwards, her mind became increasingly confused. When she got home, she couldn't tell which way was which, and she didn't even know how she got to the bed.

The two quickly tidied themselves up.

"Yaoguang, come here quickly." Zhang Pandi beckoned to Su Yaoguang. "There's going to be another spectacle over there."

"Second Aunt, what's wrong?" Su Yaoguang asked.

"That Jiang Yihuan over there fell into the water yesterday. I heard that more than a dozen men jumped in to save her. It's all over the news now, it's so embarrassing. And that Xiao Ci, she was taken back by that Shengnan from the Li family, and they're forcing her to marry him!"

"Have you seen Xiao Ci?"

Although she witnessed the scene firsthand yesterday, Su Yaoguang still couldn't help but gossip when she heard the news.

"I only heard about it. The Li family won't release him, so of course we can't see him."

Su Yaoguang pointed outside: "Look, I see it now."

Surrounded by the Li family, Xiao Yanci returned to Fenghua Pavilion. Li Shengnan had three older brothers, who now acted as her protectors, and few dared to provoke them.

"Xiao Ci is a member of our Fenghua Pavilion. You should take a good look at yourself. You think you can marry Xiao Ci with your appearance?" Zhong Lanhua was already troubled by Jiang Yihuan's situation, and the Li family had to come knocking on her door at this time, making her even more annoyed. She wished she could beat them out.

However, Li's three older brothers were all tall, burly men, each with a fierce and menacing appearance. No matter how domineering Zhong Lanhua usually was, she didn't dare to go too far in this situation.

Jiang Yihuan ran out crying and threw herself at Xiao Yanci: "Brother Xiao, you can't marry someone else. You said you would marry me."

Xiao Yanci embraced Jiang Yihuan: "Huan'er, I will not marry anyone else."

"Let go, let go!" Li Shengnan shouted in a rough voice.

She forcefully separated the two and reached out to slap Jiang Yihuan, but Xiao Yanci stopped her.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Yanci said angrily.

“You’re my man, and she dared to seduce you. She deserves a beating. Xiao, don’t forget why you came back. You’re here to pack your bags. Go pack them right now, and then come with me.”

“I won’t go with you,” Xiao Yanci said coldly. “I was lying to you. I came back to see how Huan’er was doing. Huan’er and I fell into the water at the same time yesterday, and I was worried about her safety.”

"Fine, you surnamed Xiao, you dare to lie to me!" Li Shengnan said angrily. "Big brother, second brother, third brother, drag him away. Today I'm going to marry him and enter the bridal chamber."

"No." Jiang Yihuan hugged Xiao Yanci.

"You've gone too far. My daughter and Xiao Ci are already engaged. The reason she fell into the water yesterday was because the two of them were having a secret rendezvous by the river. You want to break up this loving couple? Is there no law anymore?"

Zhong Lanhua was troubled by this matter early in the morning.

Jiang Yihuan was embraced by more than a dozen men, and now the whole city is talking about it. Her reputation is ruined, and she can no longer choose whomever she wants; they have to marry her off as soon as possible.

Just now, Manager Qian sent someone to deliver a message saying that after Jiang Yihuan's disgraceful behavior, the Qian family can no longer accept her. Even if his son likes her, it's unacceptable, because the family can't afford to lose face like that.

Zhong Lanhua and her daughter had been torn between the manager's son and Xiao Yanci; one was wealthy, the other had potential, and they wanted to maximize their profits. Now, they had no choice.
