Rebirth of a Little Cannon Fodder

Chapter 106 Something Happened 2

Thinking of this, Zhang Jianguo couldn't help but sigh that his daughter had good taste and didn't fancy this educated youth who looked good on the outside but was actually rotten on the inside.

"Alright, everyone, be quiet. Now that it has happened, each of you should tell me how you want to resolve this matter."

"Captain, I'm innocent in this matter. Comrade Wang Min and I are just friends. How could I..."

As soon as the captain finished speaking, Zhang Heng spoke first, but he was interrupted by Wang Minniang before he could finish his words.

"Captain, you can't listen to his nonsense. It's obvious that he is the one who has been pestering my Xiao Min. If he doesn't like Xiao Min, why did he come to my house for dinner? Why didn't he refuse the food Xiao Min brought him?"

"No, Captain. The reason I came here to eat is because Comrade Wang Min told me that her family wanted to thank me for helping her. As for the food Comrade Xiao Min brought me, it was because Comrade Xiao Min wanted to thank me for helping her. Seriously, Captain, please believe me. I usually have a good alcohol tolerance, but how come I passed out after just one glass today? I must have been drugged." Zhang Heng was now eager to defend his innocence.

"Brother Heng, how could you treat me like this? It was you who said you liked me and only wanted to be with me." The netizen who had been listening to the conversation silently suddenly spoke up.

Zhang Heng didn't expect that Wang Min would directly put a hat on him at this time.

"Okay, no matter what the reason for today's incident is, the ultimate victim will definitely be Wang Min. If you don't want to make things too ugly, just solve it privately. If you can't solve it, then report it to the police." Zhang Jianguo didn't want to argue with them and gave suggestions directly.

Wang Minniang and Zhang Heng quieted down when they heard the captain's intention to report to the police again. For them, it would definitely be better to resolve the matter privately. If they really reported to the police, it would be more trouble than gain.

Zhang Heng was the most anxious. After all, hooliganism was a serious crime these days, and he couldn't imagine what would happen to him if things went wrong. "Captain, we won't report this to the police. We won't report this to the police. Xiao Min and I are dating, and I drank a little too much today, so this is what happened. Auntie Wang and I had some friction over the betrothal gift. Don't worry, we'll definitely resolve this, and it won't affect the team."

Zhang Heng knew that he was definitely going to admit defeat today, but he was still very smart and fought for some rights for himself, such as the betrothal gift. You know, his money is not used to marry these village girls.

Wang Minniang, who was standing by, also understood the hidden meaning of Zhang Heng's words, but the most urgent thing at the moment was to settle the relationship between her daughter and Zhang Heng. As for the betrothal gift, she didn't believe that Zhang Heng could escape from her control.

"Yes, Captain, the two kids are dating. I didn't expect Zhang Zhiqing to be so anxious. Look, since the two kids are getting married anyway, why don't we just not report it to the police?"

The people outside the house looked at the situation inside the house and didn't know what to say for a moment. A mother didn't seek justice for her daughter who was bullied and even helped outsiders.

At that moment, some people in the crowd who were not afraid of making things worse started to make a fuss.

"Shengli family, if you say that, it's Zhang Zhiqing's fault. Why is he so eager to become your son-in-law? He hasn't even gotten married yet, but he's already entered the bridal chamber."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people outside the room started a new round of discussion.

"What on earth is this mother thinking? Why does she insist on finding an educated youth? There are so many good young men in our brigade, and none of them are better than this educated youth Zhang."

"Hey, what do you know? She has transformed herself into the mother-in-law of a city dweller. If Zhang Zhiqing returns to the city, won't her daughter follow him and enjoy a life of luxury?"

"Come on, I only saw groups of educated youth coming down, but I didn't see many going back."

The Wang family inside the house had heard the discussions outside, but now that the matter was settled, there was no room for regret and they could only grit their teeth and move on.

"Hmph, you guys are just sour grapes because you can't eat them." Wang Minniang said this and turned to look at Zhang Heng again.

"Son-in-law, you and Xiao Min have come to this point. Isn't it time to put the wedding on the agenda?"

Zhang Heng wanted to yell at Wang Minniang, "Who is your son-in-law?" But he knew he couldn't muster up the nerve. "Auntie, this happened rather suddenly. For something as big as getting married, I definitely need to write to my parents to let them know first. So how about we wait for them to write back before we discuss this?"

Zhang Heng’s current principle is to delay as much as possible. He is willing to tease these village girls from time to time, but he is unwilling to marry them.

"Logically speaking, you should have said hello to your parents first, but it's obvious that my Xiao Min was taken advantage of today. If you don't explain everything clearly today, I won't acknowledge it." How could Aunt Wang not know what Zhang Heng was thinking after living half her life? It was obvious that he was just stalling for time, thinking about how to avoid responsibility.

As soon as Aunt Wang said this, Zhang Heng knew that he couldn't get away with today's incident by just finding an excuse.

"Don't worry, Auntie. Although I don't have much money, I will show proper etiquette and will not let Xiao Min suffer any injustice. Don't worry, I will find a matchmaker to propose marriage when I get home, and the betrothal gift will be the same as that given to the girls in the village."

Zhang Heng had originally said he would find a matchmaker to propose marriage when he got home, and Wang Minniang was quite happy. But when she heard the betrothal gift was the same as the girls in the village, she felt uncomfortable. She had originally thought that if her daughter could marry an educated youth from the city, the betrothal gift would definitely be much higher than that of a country girl, but she didn't expect it to be the same as the village girl.

"Zhang Zhiqing, you can't say that. My Xiaomin is the best girl in the village. If she gets married, the betrothal gift will be no less than that of the girls in the city."

Hearing Wang Minniang's words, Zhang Heng really wanted to curse, "You're so shameless!" A country girl with no job and no education was actually comparing herself to a city girl. But even though she was complaining in her heart, she kept a face that didn't show it.

"You are right, Auntie. After all, it is me who has wronged Xiao Min. But you may not know my situation, but Xiao Min knows it very well. I really don't have that much money. If I had money, I would also like to give Xiao Min more betrothal gifts so that she can marry me with great fanfare." As she spoke, she looked at Wang Min lovingly.

It’s true that these words, these actions, and these expressions didn’t move Wang Min’s mother, but they moved Wang Min deeply.

"Mom, please don't make things difficult for Brother Heng. I know what Brother Heng is like. He really doesn't have that much money. Besides, didn't the Chairman also tell us to live a simple and frugal life and not to hold extravagant celebrations?"
