The village beauty and me!

"Marrying into the family?"

"What do you mean by marrying into another family?" Chen Huan asked, somewhat agitated.

Zhao Yaru responded seriously, "Marrying into the Zhao family means you become a son-in-law who moves into our family. In your local terms, it's called 'reverse marriage'."

"I'll fuck your grandpa!"

"As a member of the Chen family, I stand tall and proud. Why should I marry into your family?"

"You're dreaming!" Chen Huan was genuinely angry.

I have no idea what this city girl is thinking, that she can just spout such vulgar and inappropriate words.

Zhao Yaru seemed to have anticipated Chen Huan's strong reaction, and after listening, she wasn't angry.

She just frowned slightly and said, "Don't get upset. I didn't mean anything by it. I just think you're a nice person."

"This is mainly my father's idea; I, as his daughter, am just asking on his behalf."

  

Seeing Zhao Yaru's gentle tone, Chen Huan's anger immediately subsided.

At the same time, he responded seriously, "No matter whose idea it is, this is impossible to become a reality."

"What kind of logic is this? I treated your illness and saved your life, and you expect me to become a slave to your Zhao family?"

Actually, some things don't need to be said out loud; everyone understands them in their hearts.

Chen Huan understood perfectly what Zhao Yaru's father meant.

Even though you cured my daughter's illness, you also took advantage of her body.

I'll probably feel uneasy thinking about this kind of thing in the future.

But if we could recruit Chen Huan to be our son-in-law, then things would be a different story.

Of course, the other party was mainly attracted by Chen Huan's abilities.

This is what truly upset Chen Huan.

Having said that, Zhao Yaru was also a little annoyed. "Don't judge me by my own standards, okay?"

"Nobody wants you to be treated like a slave, but my father felt that someone as capable as you shouldn't be confined to the countryside."

"Staying here will only hinder your future development."

"He values ​​talent."

Do you really think I want to marry you?

Chen Huan raised an eyebrow. "That's perfect, I didn't have that idea either."

"Even if you ever have that thought, it would have to be you who marries into the Chen family and becomes a woman of the Chen family."

Zhao Yaru scoffed, "Dream on. You really think you're so charming?"

Just as the two were about to start arguing, Li Chunlan appeared in time.

He directly reprimanded Chen Huan, "Can't you have any manners?"

"Ya Ru is your patient, and also a guest in our family. Is this the kind of attitude you should have?"

"Let's talk this out!"

"Some things can be discussed slowly. What era are we living in? Who marries whom, it's all the same, isn't it?"

Chen Huan's face flushed red. "Sister-in-law, why are you eavesdropping on our conversation again?"

"You and Miss Zhao have exactly the same hobby in this regard."

Zhao Yaru's expression was also somewhat unnatural, but at this moment she immediately stood on Li Chunlan's side.

He directly rebuked Chen Huan, saying, "How can you talk to your sister-in-law like that? You should have at least some respect for your elders."

"I think you're just someone who's always been carefree and undisciplined. You've got some skills, but you're too arrogant and don't know your place."

Li Chunlan added, "Yes, Ya Ru is right. You should correct your mistake."

Chen Huan was completely speechless. "Fine, fine, I didn't expect you two to hit it off so well. You've only known each other for less than half an hour and you're already wearing the same pair of pants."

"Why don't you two just live together? Anyway, the world is so tolerant these days, women can marry women too."

"You're asking for it!"

"Believe it or not, I'll teach you a lesson!" The two women rushed at Chen Huan at the same time, their expressions both shy and coquettish.

For a moment, Chen Huan was completely captivated.

"By the way, weren't you going to gather herbs?"

"Hurry up and go, don't delay Ya Ru's treatment." Li Chunlan got down to business and ended the dispute.

"You keep calling her Ya Ru, that's quite affectionate," Chen Huan muttered softly.

"Stop talking nonsense, be careful when you go out, and take good care of Ya Ru." Li Chunlan handed Chen Huan the tools for storing medicinal herbs, and did not forget to give him careful instructions.

"I didn't say I was taking her."

"This desolate wilderness is full of dangers, and besides, she looks strong on the outside but is actually very weak. If she comes with me, won't she just be a burden?" Chen Huan was extremely unwilling.

"Don't look down on me. It's just going up the mountain to gather herbs. I won't hold you back."

"If I can't walk, I'll come back by myself," Zhao Yaru said firmly.

"Taking her out for a walk will help her recover; she'll be bored staying at home," Li Chunlan kept urging.

Chen Huan had no choice but to nod and agree with a dark expression.

First, they drove out of the village all the way to the river at the foot of the mountain before taking down their tools.

"Your village is so beautiful, with mountains and water."

"It's much more pleasing to the eye than the skyscrapers in the city," Zhao Yaru said, standing by the river.

Chen Huan casually replied, "If I told you that you would be willing to live here from now on, would you?"

Zhao Yaru paused for a moment, then shook her head.

"You see, he says one thing but means another. He says this place is great, but he actually prefers the hustle and bustle of the city." Chen Huan's tone was not without a hint of teasing.

Zhao Yaru looked dejected. "You might not understand, but sometimes we are just not in control of our own lives."

"If it weren't for wanting to ease my father's burdens, I would rather not be a city dweller and just find a beautiful little place to live a relaxed and carefree life."

Chen Huan could tell that Zhao Yaru's words came from the bottom of her heart.

In doing so, it seemed as if I had been a little unreasonable.

He coughed twice to quickly make amends, "When you've earned enough money and no longer have to worry about business and family matters, you can come back here."

Zhao Yaru glanced at him. "Really? In what capacity are you coming back?"

"Friend," Chen Huan replied earnestly.

"friend?"

"After doing that kind of thing, can we still be friends?" Zhao Yaru suddenly asked.

After saying that, she regretted it and blushed, feeling extremely embarrassed.

Chen Huan quickly changed the subject, "By the way, do you like to eat fish?"

"If you like, I'll catch a couple for you when I come back from gathering herbs."

Zhao Yaru smiled, "You're so good to me?"

"These fish must be farmed, right? You think you can just catch them whenever you want?"

"This entire river is mine," Chen Huan said with a hint of smugness.

While speaking, he couldn't help but glance upstream.

He noticed that the unpleasant smell of sewage that had been lingering in the air seemed to have diminished considerably.

You can hear the sound of machines operating in the distance.

He jumped directly onto the pickup truck, climbed onto the roof, and looked out into the distance.

To their astonishment, they discovered that excavators and numerous workers were rapidly working in the previously blocked riverbed.

They quickly cleaned up the dried-up sewage and other filth, and it seemed that it wouldn't be long before things returned to normal.

Chen Huan understood.

All of this is thanks to Zhao Yaru.

Unexpectedly, simply revealing one's identity could have such a significant impact.

It seems that Li Manjiang and his gang have really chickened out.
