Chapter 221 -224: That Man Doesn’t Want to Marry

“Everyone’s so well-informed!”

“Just seeing how many things uncle and aunt bought, I guessed something good was near for you! Which girl is it? Tell me quick so I can help you snoop around. Let me tell you, after so many years away from home, you definitely don’t know the latest.”

Xu Qigang curled his right middle finger and lightly tapped the stone-built counter, saying, “Give me a pack of cigarettes.”

“Here, let me light it for you,” Xu Yingshan deftly took a pack from the shelf and eagerly lit it.

“Come on, tell me, which girl did uncle actually mention?” Xu Yingshan was dying of curiosity. In his heart, his brother was a real man. Ordinary girls really weren’t good enough for him.

I wouldn’t want uncle to blurt out just anyone in a moment of folly.

“Didn’t dad tell you?”

“No! Aunt kept it a secret, told no one.”

“So, whose family is it really?”

“The Sheng’s.”

“Which Sheng’s? Surely not the third Sheng’s family?” Xu Yingshan’s eyes bulged in disbelief, “Uncle is really good to you, there’s such an amazing dad in the world!” He looked so envious he almost wanted to go home and sever ties with his own father.

Xu Qigang raised an eyebrow, clearly not understanding what that meant.

“Their eldest daughter is considered one of the most beautiful women in our entire county. Although she has a bad reputation, she is beautiful! What man wouldn’t want to marry her? Even if she does nothing at home, it’s still nice to look at.” Xu Yingshan got more and more excited as he spoke, completely oblivious to his cousin’s increasingly grim expression, and continued with flying spittle, “Alas! It’s just a pity about her bad reputation, which mother-in-law would dare take such a fierce daughter-in-law? I was thinking of proposing before, but my dad almost broke my legs.”

Xu Qigang flexed his wrist, and with his movement, his wrists made a snapping sound. “I think your leg needs a rest for a while.”

“Bro… don’t scare me.” Although Xu Yingshan was burly and heavier than Xu Qigang, he had never won a fight since he was a child. At the age of nine, he was so chastised by Xu Qigang that he never dared to act arrogantly again.

Xu Qigang sneered, “Yingshan!”

“Ah! Brother, I know, from now on Sheng Ning is my sister-in-law, my own sister-in-law!” Fortunately, his mind worked quickly, otherwise his leg would definitely have been in danger.

“Um!” Xu Qigang nodded in satisfaction, “Come to my house tonight, I’ll treat you to a drink.”

“Sure, I’ll definitely come.”

When Xu Qigang returned from Xu Yingshan’s shop, he took the stuff prepared by Zhao Lanzhi and personally headed toward Sheng Ning’s village.

The two villages, one east and one west, were only half an hour apart. Xu Qigang, tall and leggy, took less than twenty minutes to enter Sheng Ning’s village.

Today, he wore the usual rescue suit again. Due to long wear and training indoors and out, the clothes were quickly worn out. This suit appeared only eighty percent new and didn’t have that dashing look of those who returned from rescue operations.

After entering the village, Xu Qigang passed by the local shop at the entrance. In winter, with no farming to do, everyone gathered at the entrance of the shop, gossiping about everything. Usual busybodies, none missing, including Second Aunt Qin, Xu Laodi, and even the long-absent Widow Zhang.

As Xu Qigang, holding the items, was about to pass by the shop’s entrance,

Second Aunt Qin, while mending a shoe sole, glanced at Xu Qigang’s semi-new clothes and said with a sharp and bitter tone, “Who is this? No relatives in the rescue team at home, yet insists on wearing this ridiculous outfit to embarrass himself!”
