Start a gamble and enjoy a carefree life

"Yuwei, I heard from your mother that you are studying in Changhai City, right?" Zhou Hongli asked.

"Yes."

"Changhai City is good. I went there to run the market in the early years. The development there...tsk tsk tsk, it's much better than our Chongyun City."

Zhou Hongli sighed: "The educational resources there are also well-developed. It's right to go there to study. By the way, how many years do you have left to graduate?"

Ning Yuwei didn't want to be too involved with this family.

Hearing Zhou Hongli bring the topic to herself from time to time, she could only choose to remain silent.

Ren Fangyan said sternly: "Didn't you hear Uncle Zhou asking you a question? Can't you answer it?"

Under pressure from her mother, Ning Yuwei had to answer: "Graduation in two years."

"This child may have not been back for a long time. He is a little excited. Just take it easy. Forgive me." Ren Fangyan smiled apologetically.

Zhou Hongli waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay. After all, he is a highly educated person, and his words and deeds are very polite."

"When I was her age, I was jumping up and down, and I was simply lawless. Your girl is very quiet, and she will definitely get along well with Wen Yan in the future."

"Wen Yan will be 25 in two years, and it's time to get married. Then our two families will be even closer."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan was secretly puzzled.

It's easy to understand that they will become relatives.

What about this closer relationship?

Could it be that Zhou Hongli's wife died and fell in love with Ning Yuwei's mother?

Soon Zhou Wenyi solved the mystery for him.

"So, in the future, I have to call Yuwei my sister-in-law? But... she is younger than me, and it's a bit difficult to call her sister-in-law."

Zhou Wenyi blinked and smiled, "Or... Yuwei, you should call me sister-in-law, that's right!"

This was a roundabout way of saying it, and Ning Yuwei didn't react for a while.

But Zhang Yuan understood.

It turned out that the daughter of the Zhou family had chosen Ning Yuwei's brother.

He had heard from his elders that this "exchange marriage" method of marriage was very popular in rural areas decades ago.

At that time, farmers were generally poor and could not afford the bride price and dowry, so they adopted this method.

Unexpectedly, it has not been eliminated in the 21st century.

"Are you confused?" Zhou Wenyi leaned close to Ning Yuwei's ear and whispered: "Your brother Yuan and I are engaged, and we plan to get married in May next year! So you have to call me sister-in-law."

This "Brother Yuan" is not Zhang Yuan's "Yuan", but Ning Yuwei's brother Ning Zhiyuan.

"Ah." Ning Yuwei exclaimed, "I, I haven't heard of it."

Zhou Wenyi blushed, "Actually, your brother and I have been dating for two or three years. Before, my father didn't agree, so he didn't tell you."

"Now my father finally agreed, and it was settled a while ago. Brother Yuan didn't have time to tell you."

After all, she is the future sister-in-law, so Ning Yuwei looked at her seriously.

Zhou Wenyi is not tall, only about 1.6 meters.

She has a round face and looks pure and cute. Overall, she can reach the upper-middle level.

She has a lively personality and a very good family background.

It is quite good for her brother to marry such a wife.

She said sincerely: "Then congratulations to you in advance."

"It should be congratulations." Zhou Wenyi said as a matter of course: "Anyway, the relationship between you and my brother is a done deal."

Ning Yuwei did not respond, but shook her head firmly.

Zhou Wenyi didn't care, she turned around and said:

"Auntie, why hasn't Brother Yuan come back yet? We're almost done with dinner."

Hearing her future daughter-in-law asking, Ren Fangyan immediately changed to a friendly tone:

"He should be back soon. He told me two hours ago that he was almost in the county town."

"I haven't seen Brother Yuan for more than a month. I don't know if he has lost weight."

Zhou Wenyi said angrily: "It's all Dad's fault. He has so many people under him that he doesn't need them, but he wants Brother Yuan to go to the market. Chongyun City is so far away, and it takes most of the day to come back. It would be great to arrange a leisurely position for him to sit in the office."

Zhou Hongli just smiled and didn't explain much to his daughter.

Ren Fangyan took over the conversation and said patiently:

"Wenyi, your father is training Zhiyuan. As the saying goes, jade cannot be made into a useful tool without being polished. Only by working hard at the grassroots level can you truly grow. You must want to marry a capable person."

"Yes, that's the truth."

As soon as the voice fell, a deep voice came from outside the yard.

"Mom, is Wenyi here?"

A young man with slightly dark skin walked in quickly.

"Brother Yuan, you are finally back."

Zhou Wenyi ran into his arms, and the two hugged each other as if no one was around.

Ren Fangyan couldn't help but joked: "This kid only has your daughter in his eyes, and didn't even look at my mother. "

"Haha, isn't my daughter the same?"

After a while, Ning Zhiyuan realized that the occasion was wrong.

After reluctantly parting, he greeted everyone one by one.

When he saw Ning Yuwei, he was surprised: "I thought you would arrive tomorrow, but you came back earlier than me."

"I just arrived too, and my senior sent me back."

Ning Zhiyuan then looked at Zhang Yuan with an unfriendly look.

At this time, Zhou Wenyi whispered a few words in his ear, which made him furious.

"So you are... Please leave my house now, you are not welcome here! "

After Ning Zhiyuan finished speaking, not only Ren Fangyan, but also the three members of the Zhou family looked at Zhang Yuan.

He spoke out everyone's thoughts.

Zhang Yuan, an outsider with unknown origins, seemed out of place in this big family.

And... he was Ning Yuwei's so-called boyfriend.

It was especially sensitive when talking about marriage.

However.

Zhang Yuan put down his chopsticks slowly, looked around, and said slowly:

"I am Yuwei's boyfriend. I came here only to marry her. Tell me your conditions."

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

Ning Yuwei leaned over and held his hand.

And Ren Fangyan's face became extremely ugly at this moment.

"What do you mean? I have already arranged a marriage for Yuwei. Didn't you hear what I said just now?"

Ning Zhiyuan echoed: "This is something that our family has agreed to. What right do you have to interfere? "

Zhang Yuan said calmly: "Really? Your family all agrees. According to this, does it also include Yuwei herself?"

"As long as she nods and is willing to marry that person, I won't say a word and will just turn around and leave."

Ning Zhiyuan was anxious, "Sister, you may not know that Zhou Wenyan not only has a good temper and personality, but also has a good family background. Marrying him will make you worry-free for the rest of your life."

"Hurry up and say you agree, so that this person will give up."

Ren Fangyan also looked at her daughter with eager eyes.

But... Ning Yuwei's answer was destined to disappoint them.

"I don't want to!"
