Chapter 486: Girlfriend Asks for Help
Chunzhi put down her needlework, stood up, walked to the door, and asked loudly, "Who is it?"
A young woman's voice came from the other side of the door.
"Yueyue, I'm Ke'er."
An Yue heard that it was Wang Ke'er's voice, which seemed a little hoarse.
She quickly put down the sewing basket in her hand and walked quickly towards the gate of the yard.
Chunzhi opened the door and saw Wang Keer standing outside the door with tears in her eyes.
An Yue walked forward, and Wang Ke'er hugged An Yue without saying anything.
An Yue asked doubtfully: "Ke'er, what happened to you?"
Wang Ke'er let go of An Yue's hands and said to her with a wronged look, "Yueyue, I..."
When An Yue saw Wang Ke'er like this, she thought something big must have happened.
She raised her hand to wipe Wang Ke'er's tears: "Okay, okay, I'm here, tell me what happened?"
An Yue took Wang Ke'er's hand and led her into the yard, while Chunzhi silently closed the door behind them.
When everyone saw Wang Ke'er like this, they all gathered around.
Meng Xiuer poured a cup of tea and handed it to Wang Keer, saying softly, "Sister Keer, drink some tea first!"
Wang Keer took the tea and took a sip, her hands still shaking a little.
She choked up and said, "Yueyue, I...my mother forced me to get married. The man is the son of the town's salt merchant, Zhang Tianyi."
After hearing this, An Yue frowned and a surge of anger suddenly rose in her heart.
She knew Zhang Tianyi very well, the evil villain who did all kinds of evil and relied on his family's little money to bully the town.
An Yue held Wang Ke'er's hand tightly and said, "Ke'er, don't panic. First, tell me why your mother wanted to marry you to him?"
Wang Keer wiped the tears from her eyes and sobbed, "Years ago, my sister-in-law and I went to the town to hand in the embroidery we had finished."
"Sister-in-law went to the shop to hand over the embroidered handkerchiefs to the shopkeeper. I stood outside the shop waiting for her."
"At that time, I saw the rouge shop not far away, and since I was already in town, I decided to buy some rouge."
"After walking a few steps, I ran into Zhang Tianyi, the villain. They walked towards me, saying some obscene words."
When An Yue heard this, she clenched her hands tightly, wishing she could beat the beast to death immediately.
She asked worriedly, "Did he hurt you?"
“No, no, no, at that time… at that time, fortunately, a young man passed by and knocked Zhang Tianyi and the others to the ground, so I was spared from misfortune.”
An Yue patted her chest and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good, that's good."
"Zhang Tianyi even threatened me to wait and he would not let me go."
"I was frightened at the time, so I begged the young man who saved me to send me to my sister-in-law."
"He sent me to the shop and left immediately."
"After my sister-in-law and the shopkeeper handed over the embroidery, I took her to the town entrance and prepared to take Uncle Li's ox cart back to the village."
"After my sister-in-law and I walked out of the shop and onto the main street, I vaguely felt someone following us, but I didn't dare tell my sister-in-law at the time."
"Just when we were about to reach the entrance of the town, Zhang Tianyi and his men came up behind us."
"When I heard his voice, I called out to Uncle Li, who was driving a bullock cart not far away. When Zhang Tianyi heard me calling him an acquaintance, he stopped chasing after him."
"At that time, I took my sister-in-law to sit on Uncle Li's ox cart. After a while, the ox cart was full of people and we returned to the village."
"My sister-in-law and I got off the bullock cart, and I found that the villain had sent people to follow us."
"After getting off the ox cart, I was so scared that I found an excuse and ran home with my sister-in-law."
Speaking of this, Wang Keer's tears flowed out like a spring, unstoppable.
"I didn't dare go out for many days, and was awakened by nightmares all night long."
"Later, that villain actually...actually found a matchmaker several times to come to my house to propose marriage."
At this point, Wang K'er covered her mouth with her hands and sobbed.
An Yue wiped her tears with a handkerchief and asked, "So your parents agreed?"
"In fact, before this, the matchmaker came to our house several times, but my parents never agreed."
"I don't know why, but today he came with a matchmaker, bringing a large sum of money and gifts, and came to ask for marriage in person."
"My parents saw that he was rejected several times but still didn't give up. He even brought a lot of money and gifts to their house. In addition, his sincere words made my parents think that he was sincere."
After hearing this, An Yue stamped her feet in anger: "Stupid! Stupid! How can I entrust my life to such a villain!"
Everyone echoed.
Meng Xiuer frowned and said, "Seeing that there is an abyss ahead, what should we do now?"
An Yue looked up to the sky and took a deep breath, her mind working rapidly.
"Ke'er, don't cry yet. Crying won't solve the problem right now. Since your parents are moved by him, let's find a way to let them see Zhang Tianyi's true face."
Wang Ke'er nodded and slowly raised her head to look at An Yue, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes.
"It's just... now that my parents have accepted the betrothal gift, what should I do?"
An Yue tidied up the loose hair on Wang Ke'er's face and said, "Ke'er, please stay at my house for now and have lunch with us."
"After lunch, I will go with you to your home, and then I will talk to your parents about Zhang Tianyi's evil deeds."
"If they knew the truth, they would no longer insist on marrying you to him."
Wang Ke'er hesitated for a few seconds, but finally nodded.
———The other side———
A…A-choo!
A sneeze!
……
Zhang Tianyi was drinking in a bar with a group of his friends.
He sneezed several times in succession.
The man sitting next to Zhang Tianyi asked, "Hey, kid, are you catching a cold?"
Zhang Tianyi touched his forehead and frowned, "I don't have a fever! Could it be that some bastard is teasing me behind my back?"
After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "Never mind, let's continue drinking. Cheers."
As they spoke, several of them raised their wine bowls and drank them all in one gulp.
Zhang Tianyi put down his wine bowl and said, "Brothers, I have good news for you."
"What's the good news? Tell us now."
Zhang Tianyi smiled faintly and kept the secret, looking at everyone at the table.
"What good news? Tell me quickly."
Zhang Tianyi smiled evilly and said, "The beautiful girl from the Wang family in Baili Village will be mine sooner or later."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, just forget it! Who would believe that?"
"Don't disbelieve me, I'm telling you! Her parents have already accepted my betrothal gift, how can she regret it?"
Man A asked curiously, "What? Have you paid the betrothal gift?"
Man B joked, "Sure, bro, you're quick enough! I'm afraid the brothers will snatch it away!"
