Chapter 4 Worry

Li Dayou's home, not long after Li Jie and his party arrived, there was an angry roar in the house.

"Uh, I won't go! Uh, I won't go! Uh, I just won't go!"



"It's hard to fight. If you can't fight, you can't fight. Whoever can fight will fight."



"Well, just stay here. You still don't believe that the government can starve you to death?"



"At that time, he will not only have to send relief food to me, but he will also have to send it to my home."



Li Dayou was like an old child, expressing his wishes emotionally at one moment and acting rogue at the next.

Behind the words, he had only one meaning.

Diaozhuang, definitely not going there!

Later, when the cheap son Ma Defu saw Li Dayou acting like a scoundrel, he was so excited that he accidentally spilled the beans about Li Dayou's instigation of the villagers.

There were people from the government nearby. When Li Dayou saw what had happened, he became anxious and started to argue with his junior Ma Defu.

Finally, Zhang Shucheng acted as a peacemaker and persuaded the two of them to stop.

But with this quarrel, the conversation was definitely not going to go on, so Zhang Shucheng simply took advantage of the situation and said goodbye.

After visiting seven households, Zhang Shucheng also understood that the villagers were very resistant to the Diaozhuang immigration policy. Of the seven people I met today, everyone was full of complaints and resentments, and not one of them said they were sorry.

Everyone in the village is saying that this policy is not good and that it is a waste of money and people.

On the other side, looking at Zhang Shucheng's frustrated look, Li Jie said nothing. Except for the Han San family at the beginning today, when he visited the other six "escaped households", Li Jie did not say anything.

He did unnecessary work and just stood aside quietly, watching Zhang Shucheng and his son persuade the dealers.

From his point of view, both Zhang Shucheng and his son, although they were very diligent, used the wrong method.

The people who work in Diaozhuang are all adults, and they all have their own thinking patterns. With just a few words and a big picture, you want them to change their minds?

It’s simply impossible!

Li Jie already had a plan on how to persuade the villagers to continue building the village, but he still had a more important thing to do at the moment.

Li Shuihua in their village is getting married tomorrow.

Compared with other things, this matter is the Ma family's top priority.

Li Shuihua was not so much married as "sold" by her father. Old Man Li exchanged his daughter for a water cellar, a donkey, two sheep, and two cages of chickens.

This marriage is a naked transaction without any emotional factors, because the person Li Shuihua really likes is his cheap son Ma Defu, and at the same time, Ma Defu also likes Shuihua.

The two are childhood sweethearts and have grown up together. They both know that they like each other.

However, the love between the two is separated by a cruel reality.

Ma Defu and Shui Hua are both the hope of their respective families, but their methods are different.

The Shuihua family hopes that their daughter will marry well so as to change the fate of the family, while the Ma family hopes that Ma Defu can change the family's predicament through work.

Ma Defu knew very well that their family could not give Shuihua's family what they wanted. Shuihua also knew what his father wanted, and she did not want to force Ma Defu to take it from her.

Because she didn't want to drag Ma Defu down.

Therefore, the two clearly love each other, but they cannot be together.

But these are all things of the past. Now that Li Jie is here, the situation is naturally different.

The Ma family is determined to have Shui Hua as their daughter-in-law!

No one can stop it!

It was night, with the moon and stars sparse, and suddenly there was a rustling sound in Ma's yard.

Inside the house, Li Jie heard the noise and suddenly opened his eyes. He knew who made the sound. Just like in the original drama, the children Ma Debao, Mai Miao, Ga Wa and Shui Wang couldn't stand the suffering in the village.

, want to escape Yongquan Village and escape to the big city outside.

Originally, there were only four of them in this 'escape' operation, but after Shuihua learned about it, instead of trying to dissuade them, she decided to join the operation. On the one hand, Shuihua did this because she wanted to take care of her younger brothers and sisters.

On the other hand, she also wanted to escape from this transaction-filled marriage.

When it was quiet again outside the door, Li Jie quietly got up and walked quietly to his son's room.

By the moonlight, Li Jie discovered that even though he was asleep, his son's brows were furrowed together, with a look of worry between his brows.

The reason why he behaved like this, with a quick guess, was most likely not because of work, but because of the water splash. After all, he had just come into contact with Diaozhuang immigration today, so how could he be so worried about it.

"Defu, Defu!" Li Jie patted his cheap son's face and whispered: "Wake up, wake up!"

"Um?"

Ma Defu opened his eyes sleepily. He was stunned at first. It was not until he could see the identity of the person clearly that he said with a confused expression.

"dad?"

"What are you doing?"

"It's still dark outside."

Li Jie got straight to the point: "Debao ran away."

"Varied……"

Before the word 'huh' could be uttered, Li Jie covered his cheap son's mouth so as not to wake up Debao's mother and her little daughter Ma Dehua next door.

"Don't scream."

Although Ma Defu was very confused, he still blinked to show that he understood.

"Actually, I just watched Debao run away."

As he spoke, Ma Defu became anxious again. Li Jie raised his hand to signal him to calm down, and then continued.

"Do you know why I didn't stop him? Because I saw that besides a few children, there was an adult running with him. That person was Shui Hua."

When Shui Hua was mentioned, Ma Defu's expression suddenly darkened, and he immediately understood why Shui Hua ran away.

"You coward!"

When Li Jie saw this, he slapped his son.

"How could you be willing to let a woman as good as Shui Hua marry someone else?"

Ma Defu looked up at his father, opened his mouth, and hesitated for a long time, but didn't say a word.

"Get up now and chase Shui Hua and the others back."

Having said this, Li Jie deliberately paused for a moment and admired his cheap son's expression. As expected, Ma Defu showed a very reluctant look, not even raising his hand, let alone getting up.

Seeing this scene, Li Jie stopped teasing this cheap son.

"Then, early tomorrow morning, you take Shui Hua home and tell her father, Shui Hua, our family is getting married! Our family will not miss a penny of the bride price given to their family by the An family!"

In an instant, Ma Defu's eyes widened and he could not hide the ecstasy in his heart. However, after the excitement, he remembered that their family could not afford such colorful gifts.

Li Jie added with a smile: "You don't have to worry about the bride price."
