The fat woman, Wang Ahua, saw that the village chief was still not giving up, and her fingers clenched so tightly they made a cracking sound.

"What, you're ignoring what I say?"

Wang Ahua was used to being the queen of the village and was always domineering; reasoning with her was completely futile.

Uncle Guang had no choice but to turn his gaze to the village chief of Wangjia Village. "Village Chief Wang, what do you have to say about this?"

Village Chief Wang was also worried. If Jiang Chen had gone to another village, he would still have some authority. But Jiang Chen had been bought off by Wang Ahua. Once a person makes up his mind, he won't change it easily.

Even his persuasion as the village chief was of little use.

"Ahua, we're all from the same village, so maybe... we should just forget about it?"

"Forget it?" Wang Ahua slammed her hand on a tree beside her, and the thick trunk cracked open with a loud snap. "Anyone who dares to steal what belongs to Wang Ahua can try!"

Village Chief Wang silently swallowed his words of advice.

The other villagers in Wangjia Village remained silent. No matter how domineering Wang Ahua and her brother were, they were still people from Wangjia Village, so of course no one would side with outsiders at this time.

Wang Awang strode forward menacingly, his flesh trembling, his eyes fixed dangerously on Uncle Guang and the others. "Anyone who dares to steal my sister's man will have to step over me first!"

These brother and sister are both burly and strong; most people wouldn't dare to mess with them.

Everyone looked at each other, not daring to step forward. With Wang Ahua's strength, one punch might kill someone.

Village Chief Wang ordered his men to release the village chief and Jiang Lao Er.

Everyone looked at the village chief, waiting for his instructions.

The village chief brought so many people not to fight, but to intimidate them.

Who knew we'd run into this pair of robber siblings?

He cursed Chen Jie and Zhou Lao Er countless times in his heart; they certainly knew how to pick their men.

Taking the opportunity, Jiang Laosan walked up to Wen Li and asked, "Wen, you two, who would win between you and Wang Ahua?"

Wen Li looked at Jiang Laosan with a mocking expression, "I just came to watch the show. Do you think I would help save Jiang Chen?"

Jiang Laosan touched his nose sheepishly, "I'm just worried that if a fight breaks out, the villagers will get hurt!"

"With so many of us, all of us young and strong, how could we possibly lose to them?"

"It's best to avoid fighting if possible. These people hold grudges very long. If you make a fatal enemy, they'll take revenge on the village, and no one will ever have a peaceful day again!"

"If a fight really breaks out, I won't just stand by and watch, and I won't let them hurt the villagers, but asking me to help save Jiang Chen is impossible!"

As long as Wen Li helps take care of the villagers, Jiang Laosan breathed a sigh of relief, his heart finally at ease.

The village chief and the village chief were still chatting. The village chief was also trying to persuade Wang Ahua that in their village, buying a wife required the woman to be willing.

Therefore, their village is considered one of the easier villages to talk to among the surrounding villages.

They were all from the same commune, and Village Chief Wang didn't want to offend anyone too much.

Unfortunately, no matter how much everyone tried to persuade her, Wang Ahua refused to release the person.

Seeing that his sister was unwilling, Wang Awang stood beside her like a wall of flesh.

Just kidding, my sister is already thirty years old. She finally has a man to carry on the family line, so of course he won't agree to let Jiang Chen be taken away.

"Village chief, my sister has suffered so much these past years. She finally found a man and can live a good life with him. You can't just watch her grow old alone, can you?"

Village Chief Wang was also troubled. There were already few girls in their mountains, and as long as she was a girl, no matter how ugly she was, there would be people scrambling to take her.

But Wang Ahua is different. She has a violent temper and beats people at the drop of a hat. Several of her previous men were driven away by her, and one of them was almost beaten to death.

Now that there are no men around, she spends all her time flirting with the men in the village, causing chaos in the surrounding villages. The brother and sister have become so disliked that everyone hates them, but because they are strong, no one dares to mess with them.

Whenever someone married Wang Ahua, he would be overjoyed, but before he knew it, the person would come knocking on his door.

Wang Ahua and her brother were local bullies in their village. With them around, people from neighboring villages didn't dare to mess with them.

Village Chief Wang was caught in a dilemma.

The only option is to pass this problem on to the clan chief.

The clan chief didn't want a real fight to break out, as their village would definitely suffer if one did. So, leaning on his cane, he stepped forward and advised, "Ahua, let's return Jiang Chen to him!"

"What, I gave the man back, now you're going to sleep with me, you old geezer?"

The clan chief was used to Wang Ahua's way of speaking. "Ahua, we're all from the same village, don't make things too ugly!"

"Heh~ You think I'm afraid of them? If anyone dares to lay a hand on me, I'll beat the shit out of them!"

Despite the clan chief's repeated pleas, Wang Ahua refused to release the person.

The village chief was helpless; if Village Chief Wang acted even slightly arrogantly, they would have any reason to take action.

But they were so nice, and even helped persuade Wang Ahua. If they really started a fight, then she would be in the wrong.

The atmosphere remained tense, and neither side could persuade Wang Ahua and her brother.

Finally, it was Jiang Laosan who stepped forward. "Comrade Wang, what are your conditions? As long as we can do it, we will definitely agree to your terms, as long as you release Jiang Chen!"

Wang Ahua's eyes swept over Jiang Laosan's face. Jiang Laosan was quite good-looking, and Wang Ahua became a little interested. But when she thought of Jiang Chen's face, she instantly felt that Jiang Chen was better.

"I don't want anything else, I just want Jiang Chen!"

"Comrade Wang, Jiang Chen is a former educated youth, and he's married. If this matter escalates to the police station, it won't look good for anyone. What do you think...?"

When the police station was mentioned, Wang Ahua hesitated. She had witnessed the police officers from the station arresting people in the neighboring village a couple of years ago. At first, the people in the neighboring village were extremely arrogant.

Later, a policeman pulled out a gun, and a bloody hole appeared in the man's body. That thing terrified her.

From then on, she became somewhat afraid of the police officers at the local police station.

Seeing the hesitation on Wang Ahua's face, Village Chief Wang immediately seized the opportunity.

"That's right! Ah Hua, it's the rule in our village that we can't force people to buy things they don't want to. Jiang Chen didn't do it voluntarily either. If this goes to the police station, you'll be in jail!"

"At worst, you can ask Zhou Lao Er to find you someone who's willing to marry into the family; then no one will say anything!"

Wang Ahua: "How can that be? Those men willing to be live-in sons-in-law are all gigolos. How can they compare to Jiang Chen? I want Jiang Chen!"

Well, she's got her eye on Jiang Chen's face!

However, she has begun to waver.

The village chief pressed his advantage, "Comrade Wang, you can't say that. Jiang Chen looks like a gigolo. When we look for a man, we need to find someone reliable and considerate, so that we can live a harmonious life, right?"

"Jiang Chen is not only unable to carry anything, he can't even cook. Just think about it, you work hard all day, and then you have to take care of him when you get home. How tiring is that!"

"Furthermore, you have to constantly guard against him running away; a man like that is unacceptable!"

"Why did you marry a man? Wasn't it to live a comfortable life? If you keep Jiang Chen, you'll only live a miserable life, and you'll have to guard against him doing something inappropriate when you're not around!"

"Don't you agree with this logic?"
