Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 906: Chapter 906: Ruining a Matrimonial Match

”Besides, a woman’s looks are only considered for about two years! And what’s the use of being pretty during the day? At night, when the lamp is out and everyone’s on the kang bed, aren’t we all the same?” Cuihua said with a flushed face, ”Just looking at her petite frame, you can tell she’s not suited for childbirth! I’m different! Everyone who reads fortunes says I have the luck to prosper my husband and children.”

”I get it, I’m not having regrets, so stop talking about it,” Tian Niu said with growing annoyance.

But the path was his own choice, so he couldn’t blame Cuihua.

The crowd gathering for the wedding in the courtyard swelled, bustling like a busy market.

The big sister and the second sister looked on with regret among the crowd.

”I wanted Shuangshuang to be my sister-in-law,” the second sister whispered.

”Me too, at least our brother would be happy,” the big sister sighed, ”But if her family looks down on our brother, what can we do?”

”Sigh.” The second sister let out a long sigh and suddenly said to the big sister, ”Do you think it’s possible for our sister-in-law to appear and snatch our brother back?”

”The chances are slim, right?”

”Then I really want to pray to the Heavens. Let the sister-in-law appear here soon and just take our brother away. I really can’t stand to see him in such pain,” said the second sister before closing her eyes and silently chanting in her heart.

............

The second sister’s guess was spot on, as Gu Shuangshuang was indeed rushing over desperately.

Li Youjun promised to thoroughly investigate Tian Niu, and he delivered on his word.

He used his connections to check Tian Niu’s family history in detail and then sent a young warrior to Tian Niu’s village to see what the Niu Family’s reputation was like.

The moment the young warrior entered the village, he heard that Tian Niu was about to get married.

He had gone to town with his future bride to buy clothes.

The young warrior also casually inquired about what kind of person Tian Niu was.

The villagers’ opinion of him and his family was very high indeed.

So, the young warrior went back to report.

When he briefed Li Youjun, he mentioned that Tian Niu was getting married.

The news reached Gu Shuangshuang, and she couldn’t sit still anymore.

She negotiated with Duan Aihua once more and made her stance clear.

Initially, Duan Aihua thought she might indeed be unable to stop Gu Shuangshuang, especially after what Li Youjun had told her.

She decided to let Gu Shuangshuang and Tian Niu be together.

Gu Shuangshuang was so delighted, she hopped three feet in the air and set off by train to find Tian Niu.

She wanted to share the good news with Tian Niu and also to break off an impending marriage.

But Gu Shuangshuang didn’t feel the slightest bit unethical, love was selfish after all. Upon seeing Tian Niu again, she was determined to give him a thorough telling off.

She wasn’t willing to give up despite the difficulties, so why should Tian Niu give up!

She would give Tian Niu one more chance, and if Tian Niu really gave up on her this time, she, Gu Shuangshuang, would not try to win him back again. Love needed to be fought for by both parties; a one-sided effort could never come together.

She understood Tian Niu’s family situation and could see all the Tian Family had done to keep her, and she knew about Tian Niu’s love for her, so she was willing to fight no matter how hard it was.

After a morning of rattling on the train, she finally arrived in Tian Family’s village around noon.

Shuangshuang jumped off the train and ran towards Tian Niu’s house as if she was crazy.

Learning they were all at Cuihua’s place, Gu Shuangshuang made her way to Cuihua’s house alone.

Today was a day of celebration at Cuihua’s house, and with the villagers all aware, Gu Shuangshuang could easily find out just by asking around.
