You need to raise your pet using a system [Era]

Chapter 140 Zhou Cheng is wrong

Now that people are coming to him for help, Lu Yuanqing feels he needs to have a good talk with his aunt and the others about lending a hand to his cousin!

He planned it very well.

But to his surprise, he felt as if he had just fallen asleep when he was shaken awake.

"Third brother, wake up! Get up! Aunt and the others are here!"

"what?"

Lu Yuanqing hadn't even had a chance to unleash his morning grumpiness before he was jolted awake by Lu Yuanbo's words.

"Did my aunt come alone? Did my uncle come?" Lu Yuanqing asked as he got out of bed, lifting the covers.

"They're both here, and they're staring at each other like that with my cousin right now!" Lu Yuanbo said anxiously.

He was completely bewildered the whole time and had no idea why his cousin had suddenly come to his house, and she even looked unhappy.

Now, I don't know why my aunt and uncle came to his house with such a sullen face.

What did my cousin do wrong? Was she worried about being scolded? So she came to his house? Now my aunt and uncle are here to settle scores with my cousin?

But my cousin doesn't seem like someone who's done anything outrageous!

Just as Lu Yuanbo was lost in thought, Lu Yuanqing had already put on his shoes and lifted the curtain to go out.

The first thing you see is Qin Fengmao and Lu Shufen glaring at Qin Yingfeng, while Qin Yingfeng has her head down.

Lu Yuanqing walked over and gently tapped Lu Mingdong's head.

Keep quiet, your spectator attitude is too obvious!

Lu Mingdong pursed his lips, sat up straight, and the look of amusement in his eyes calmed down.

"Aunt, Uncle, you're here!" Lu Yuanqing greeted them with a smile.

Qin Fengmao and Lu Shufen treated him quite well, and stopped glaring at the ignorant girl, instead smiling and calling him Lu Yuanqing.

Seeing this, Lu Yuanqing became even more self-righteous.

Qin Yingfeng didn't tell them what Lu Yuanqing had said, yet she can still greet him amicably now, so it seems she really didn't tell him.

Well done, you didn't expose your comrades!

Lu Yuanqing cast an admiring glance at Qin Yingfeng.

Qin Yingfeng: "..." I don't understand!

Lu Yuanqing: "Aunt, you've come today because of Xiaofeng, right?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Fengmao gave Qin Yingfeng a cold snort, his disappointment perfectly conveyed!

Seeing this, Lu Yuanqing stopped looking at him and instead looked at Lu Shufen.

A hint of confusion flashed across Lu Shufen's face, but in response to Lu Yuanqing's question, she said, "Did she tell you?"

"Yes!" Lu Yuanqing nodded. "Xiao Feng told me that she doesn't like Zhou Cheng, so she wants to call off the engagement!"

Perhaps Lu Yuanqing's tone was too calm and casual, because Qin Fengmao immediately said, "Don't like him? How can you like him? He's good-looking, his family is similar to ours, and he doesn't have any messy affairs. Why didn't you say no when you were meeting him?"

"Now that everything's settled, they're saying no, that's good enough, what more do you want to complain about?"

hiss!

Qin Fengmao's words indeed made Lu Yuanqing gasp in shock.

He doesn't understand why parents, whether current or future, use the same excuses to pressure their children into marriage. Have they been uniformly trained by someone?

We've gone off on a tangent.

Seeing that Qin Yingfeng's head was lowering lower and lower, Lu Yuanqing stepped forward to block her and Qin Fengmao's view.

I'll say it again, "Auntie, do you also think that Xiaofeng is being unreasonable?"

Lu Shufen stared at her blankly and said, "Xiaofeng is very sensible, she has always been sensible!"

During the years when she was at odds with the Qin family, Qin Yingfeng stood by her side and spoke up for her, even at the risk of being gossiped about.

How could such a girl be so insensible!

But why is he not acting like a proper adult now? Why is he causing such a scandal?

Lu Yuanqing frowned: "Aunt, marriage is a big deal. If Xiaofeng is not satisfied, so be it. Do you want to force her?"

"Besides, it's not uncommon for arranged marriages to fall through in the end. So many families have gone through the same thing – they agreed on a deal, then called it off!"

Qin Fengmao's tone was unpleasant: "It's their business if others withdraw, but now this kind of shameful thing is happening in my family."

“Yuan Qing, it’s not that I think it’s shameful or not! The main thing is, look at Zhou Cheng, what’s wrong with him? The Zhou family is also good. It’s not easy to find such good conditions. Now that we’ve met him, if we don’t seize the opportunity, when will we find such a good family again?”

"Tell me about her. She didn't object when we asked, but now she's objecting. Which parent wouldn't be angry in that situation?"

Lu Yuanqing: "Xiaofeng is still young and this is the first time she has encountered such a big event. She didn't have time to react. You parents saw that she didn't object, so you rushed to arrange the engagement. By the time she realized what was happening, it was already like this. She didn't even know how to object to you!"

He felt things were being rushed from the start. Could a marriage be so hasty? Shouldn't they get to know each other better first?

They're both so young, how can they settle down with someone so easily!

Qin Fengmao: "What's the rush! We got married much earlier than you. Take your grandma, for example. When she was your age, I was already born! What's wrong with the Zhou family? Zhou Cheng is good-looking and has a good character. He has older brothers and sisters, and he's the youngest. His parents have to help him a lot. You'd have a great life if you married into that family. Why are you being so picky?"

Lu Yuanqing pouted, about to say something, when he was interrupted by Lu Yuanbo's voice from the side!

"Wait, Aunt, Brother, is the Zhou Cheng you're talking about the Zhou Cheng from the production brigade next to Yangliu Village?"

Lu Yuanbo had been listening for a long time, and he finally understood what he was hearing.

So it turns out that Qin Yingfeng's fiancé is Zhou Cheng!

But now Qin Yingfeng is not happy and wants to back out of the engagement, but her aunt and uncle feel that Zhou Cheng's family is perfect, which is why things have turned out this way.

Lu Yuanqing looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Yes, he has older brothers and sisters who are already married. Do you know them?"

“I know him!” Lu Yuanbo nodded.

"However, Aunt, Brother, if the Zhou Cheng we're talking about is the same person, then we can't marry our cousin to him. He's not a good person!"

"What do you mean?" Lu Shufen hurriedly stepped forward and pulled him aside, asking, "Yuanbo, what do you mean? Why can't I marry him? I think Zhou Cheng is a good guy! There's nothing wrong with him. Do you know something about him?"

Qin Fengmao also became anxious and quickly inquired about the situation.

Lu Yuanqing pulled them to sit down, "Aunt, Uncle, don't be in a hurry, let the fourth brother explain properly!"

After calming the two down, he turned to Lu Yuanbo and said, "How do you know Zhou Cheng? Also, do you know anything about Zhou Cheng? Tell me quickly!"

"No, Aunt, even if you didn't know Zhou Cheng before, you should know Qin Dajiang, right? When he found out that my cousin was going on a blind date with Zhou Cheng, didn't he say anything to you?" Lu Yuanbo was also full of questions.

They're relatives, after all; Qin Yingfeng is Qin Dajiang's cousin! Why didn't they tell them a single thing after finding out what kind of person Zhou Cheng is?

Yes, Qin Dajiang's parents had argued and even fought with their aunt and uncle, but they were all relatives, and after the argument, they really never spoke to each other again!

The group was full of questions and hurriedly pressed, "What exactly is wrong with Zhou Cheng? Tell us quickly!"

As for Zhou Cheng's situation, Lu Yuanbo actually knew.

This was when he was in junior high school in the commune. He met Zhou Cheng through a classmate with whom he had a good relationship.

"I know this Zhou Cheng. He dated my classmate's older sister!"

"Huh?" Lu Yuanqing was shocked.

“It’s normal to have dated before! As long as you’re not in contact with each other now, it’s fine. Just break it off cleanly!” Qin Fengmao said.

Lu Yuanqing and Lu Yuanbo both looked at him instinctively.

Lu Yuanbo, in particular, was incredulous: "No way, Zhou Cheng is no good!"

“My classmate told me that Zhou Cheng initially wanted to deceive his sister because his family was from the city. His sister was naive and was easily fooled by his sweet words. She was so eager to marry him that she was willing to die for him.”

“Uncle, you may be far from the commune and haven’t heard about this, but if you go to the commune to inquire, you’ll find out that Zhou Cheng had a girlfriend back then. She made a scene at home every day, wanting to marry him, but her parents just wouldn’t agree.”

“We were in the second year of junior high school. We were all classmates, and we had all heard this gossip. Qin Dajiang knew about it too! Moreover, Qin Dajiang and Zhou Cheng were very close. I had seen them together several times.”

This is also why Lu Yuanbo knew about this.

He knew of Zhou Cheng because his classmate's older sister had been badly deceived by him and insisted on marrying him, causing his classmate's parents a lot of worry.

He only heard a few gossips at the time, and that's how he remembered Zhou Cheng.

But later, he saw that Zhou Cheng and Qin Dajiang knew each other and seemed to have a good relationship.

He knew Qin Dajiang well, and he even thought that Qin Dajiang's grandparents often bullied his aunt. They were not family, so he cursed Qin Dajiang, saying he was no good person!

"So that means Qin Dajiang already knew Zhou Cheng!" Lu Yuanqing stroked his chin, turned to Lu Shufen, and said, "Then, Aunt, how do you think the Zhou family approached Xiaofeng?"

What seemed reasonable before now appears to be completely unreasonable.

In any case, Zhou Cheng is a few years older than Qin Yingfeng. Even if the Zhou family wanted to find a wife and asked a matchmaker, it's unlikely that the matchmaker would just happen to approach Qin Yingfeng!

Unless someone introduced Qin Yingfeng to the Zhou family, the Zhou family went directly to the matchmaker and then directly approached Qin Yingfeng.

It's not hard to tell now that this person is Qin Dajiang!

Lu Shufen had obviously thought of this as well, and her legs went weak, causing her to sit down on the ground.

"Auntie!"

Lu Yuanqing and Lu Yuanbo quickly helped her up.

Lu Shufen was on the verge of collapse, "What's going on! Why does this have to be such a deep-seated hatred?"

"Xiao Feng is also his cousin! Is he just going to stand by and watch her walk into the wolf's den?"

Hearing Lu Shufen's blame towards her nephew, Qin Fengmao flashed a hint of displeasure and retorted, "It's impossible that Dajiang has bad intentions! Xiaofeng is his cousin after all, she wouldn't do that!"

"Besides, Yuanbo also said that Zhou Cheng only dated someone before, and there's no connection between them now. The Zhou family is already quite well-off, and it's over now, there's no need to dwell on this!"

Lu Yuanqing: "..." He picked at his ears, somewhat unable to believe what he had just heard!

Lu Yuanbo was even more exaggerated, almost jumping up and down, "Uncle, what are you saying! Do you know that my classmate's family is no longer in the commune? Do you know why they moved away?"

"I didn't want to talk about this, after all, it's a shameful thing. My classmate accidentally let it slip, and that's how I found out. You know Zhou Cheng, that guy, in order to marry my classmate's sister, even though he knew she didn't agree, he actually got her... pregnant!"

Even when he was angry, Lu Yuanbo said the last three words in a low voice!

Even though they kept their voices down, everyone in the main room heard them.

Everyone was so shocked they were speechless!

Especially Lu Shufen, she opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she couldn't find the words to describe it, and could only use "shameless" to describe Zhou Cheng.

Qin Yingfeng, on the other hand, was filled with relief. She was relieved that she was still unwilling to give up, and even more relieved that she had not married someone she didn't know at all because of pressure.

Yuan Qing is right, there's still time!

Qin Fengmao was also speechless, his face full of disbelief. "Impossible! They actually did something like this? We didn't hear a thing!"

Lu Yuanbo glared at him, annoyed. "Is this something to be proud of? How could it possibly get out!"

Actually, his classmate had also transferred schools at the last minute, and everything was in a rush, which Lu Yuanbo found very strange.

Although his sister insisted on marrying a countryman, someone their parents disapproved of, the neighborhood didn't approve, and everyone was laughing at their family.

However, his parents still insisted on not agreeing.

Unexpectedly, it was precisely because his parents were too insistent that Zhou Cheng, this two-faced and heartless man, came up with a crooked idea to force the issue into a fait accompli!

But those parents were so tough! They forced their daughter to have an abortion, then the whole family moved away quietly.

Now, Zhou Cheng's dream of marrying a city girl and achieving instant success has been completely shattered.

Lu Yuanqing sneered: "I think that although we don't know about this, whether it's Zhoujia Village or the neighbors of Yuanbo's classmate in the commune, they should be able to find out about this!"

The girl got pregnant and then had an abortion, and was taken away by her parents. Not many people probably know about this, but it's impossible to keep Zhou Cheng and the girl dating a complete secret!

"No wonder they've only been on blind dates for a few days, yet they're already making a fuss about moving the wedding date forward. They're afraid that if they drag it out, it'll be exposed!" Lu Shufen understood everything now!

The Zhou family's intentions are now clear to everyone.

"I was thinking that by the time Xiaofeng got married, even if she knew about Zhou Cheng's past, it would be too late!" Qin Fengmao sat on the stool with a dejected look on his face.

There's nothing wrong with having had a relationship.

But in order to marry a city wife, he came up with the despicable trick of forcing the issue, which Qin Fengmao disapproved of and found shameless!

"But what do we do now?" Lu Shufen said, on the verge of tears.

"What else can we do? Break off the engagement! Break it off!" Lu Yuanqing couldn't help but roll his eyes. They're actually asking what to do now? Cut your losses!

However, Lu Yuanqing was also somewhat relieved. Given Qin Fengmao and Lu Shufen's somewhat stubborn ideas, things would have been truly difficult if Lu Yuanbo hadn't happened to know Zhou Cheng's true colors!
