The newly married reborn cold-faced boss dotes on his delicate wife
Chapter 402 A big change in attitude
He said it vaguely, as if joking. Xiang Qianjin comforted himself, who would take this seriously? It was not a real agreement. Besides, he and Hua Yulan had never held hands. They were just friends.
Hua Yulan is already twenty years old. Women of this age in the village would have been engaged and married long ago. Maybe when he returns to his hometown, Hua Yulan will already be married.
Xiang Qianjin felt happy. He bought new clothes and leather shoes, put on hair oil and went to meet the female doctor who was introduced to him. They watched movies, ate Western food and danced together. It was a pity that they broke up after less than half a month of dating. The main reason was that their personalities were not compatible and they could not get along with each other.
Xiang Qianjin even went back to his hometown. When he saw Hua Yulan's shy and timid eyes, his heart skipped a beat and he thought it was all over.
At that moment, Xiang Qianjin saw his innermost thoughts. In fact, the moment he was promoted, he excluded this woman from the options in his life.
Hua Yulan was the same as before, but Xiang Qianjin just couldn't stand her anymore. Even the two thick braids that were always dangling in his mind seemed rustic now. Girls in the city didn't have such a hairstyle.
Xiang Qianjin didn't know how to tell Hua Yulan, so he could only try his best to avoid her. Besides feeling embarrassed and guilty, he was also worried about her pestering him, so he avoided her as much as possible. When he occasionally met Hua Yulan, he would just nod and say hello, with a very cold attitude.
Hua Yulan was a person who could read people's expressions. Knowing Xiang Qianjin's attitude, she did not come close to him. Xiang Qianjin felt embarrassed, but he was also slightly relieved.
That day, Xiang Qianjin's eldest sister got married and the family held a wedding banquet. Their village was small and interpersonal relationships were a matter for the whole village. Hua Yulan came with her mother. The mother and daughter just sat quietly at the outermost table and did not join the crowded places. It seemed that they were just there to contribute and have a simple meal.
Xiang Qianjin glanced towards Hua Yulan. Seeing the two mother and daughter sitting quietly together, his heart sank heavily as if it was being pulled by a weight. He felt quite uncomfortable.
He knew very well that his attitude towards Hua Yulan had changed drastically. Hua Yulan's lowered head and awkward movements made him feel guilty and his face was burning, as if he had been slapped hard in the face.
But things are different now.
He had sincerely thought about marrying her before.
The problem was that Hua Yulan's family conditions were too poor. Not to mention those city girls with backgrounds who could help him, even after he married Hua Yulan, his family would have to pay a lot. Her widowed mother and silly brother would be a burden to him. It would be fine if he returned to his hometown and became a farmer, but how could he do that now? How could he marry into such a useless relative?
Therefore, even though Xiang Qianjin felt upset, he still said nothing. He also tried his best to avoid going to the table where Hua Yulan was sitting. He didn't look at her, didn't talk to her, avoided her, and treated her coldly.
The village chief and his family also came that day. They sat directly on the big kang in the main room. The village chief patted Xiang Qianjin on the shoulder and praised him for being a promising man who became an officer in the army at such a young age.
Xiang Qianjin frowned when he heard this, and looking at the village chief's smiling face, he knew what the village chief was planning. He saw that his conditions had improved and wanted to force his daughter onto the village chief.
You're dreaming! Xiang Qianjin was still thinking about making good use of his marriage, so how could he be willing to be manipulated like this?
He wanted to find someone worthy of him. Even if the daughters of those leaders were like Zhang Ling, he was not worthy of her. But at least his other half had to be of similar level to him, at least a city girl with a decent family background.
So Xiang Qianjin refused. He told his parents and asked them to tell the village chief that he would never marry the village chief's daughter.
Xiang Qianjin's parents were a little hesitant. The village chief had the final say in the village. If they could marry into the village chief's family, their lives in the village would be much better thanks to this relationship. Xiang Qianjin taught the old couple a lesson, saying that they were foolish. With his conditions, he could find many women who were better off than the village chief's daughter to be his wives. He told his parents not to focus on the small piece of land in front of them, as there were many officials out there who were more powerful than the village chief. Compared to living comfortably in his hometown, the most important thing at the moment was his future. His future was their family's future.
Xiang Qianjin's parents were convinced. They thought that since their son was so handsome and ambitious, he would definitely be able to find a daughter from a better family.
Xiang Qianjin saw his parents and the village chief whispering in the house, and then the village chief left the house with an unhappy look on his face. He snorted at Xiang Qianjin who greeted him with a smile, sat down at the table with a stern face, and drank three large bowls of stew as if to vent his anger.
After dinner, the crowd dispersed, but the village chief's daughter suddenly rushed to Hua Yulan and pushed her hard.
Hua Yulan was pushed back repeatedly and almost fell to the ground.
The village chief's daughter was huge, and she was as big as three Hua Yulans. The fat on her face was trembling. She cursed at Hua Yulan viciously: "You should have followed Xiang Qianjin earlier."
"When you two went to school together, I thought you two were not serious. Now, he dared to lose face for my father for you and even disliked me and didn't want to marry me."
"How can I live my life in the future?"
