A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous

Trading a mule for a horse was a very good deal, so Liu Kerong didn't bring it up again. But she could use other things to make an argument; she absolutely couldn't afford to be the one who lost out.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart."

The mother's face turned bright red, and she stepped forward and slapped Liu Kerong across the face, leaving a five-finger mark immediately.

The compensation has already been paid, and the mother feels that the two families owe each other nothing. Why should she continue to slander her daughter's reputation? Her daughter is going to marry into a good family.

"You!" Covering her burning cheeks, Liu Kerong, who never suffered a loss, was furious. How could she let herself be wronged like this? She went up to slap her mother's face, wanting to get back at her mother for the injustice she had suffered.

She raised her hand and slapped her mother across the face.

No sooner said than done, in the blink of an eye, Atreus's steel-like hand had already gripped her wrist and twisted it outwards, causing Liu Kerong to scream in pain.

"Do you want to fight again?"

Art leaned down and asked sharply.

Liu Kerong tried jumping around a couple of times, calling out to the people around her for help, but found that Wen Deren was so frightened that he took two steps back and only made verbal threats from the side, not daring to even step forward.

Knowing that killing her would be as easy as killing an ant for Art, she immediately changed her expression and begged for mercy:

"Coach, please let me go. I was just speaking without thinking, but I didn't mean any harm. I was just trying to help you."

Art spat angrily at the ground beside him, he was so angry he wanted to kill her. Did she think he was stupid?

"Hey Coach, look, you and Meijiu are a perfect match, everyone can see it, and I think you're a good couple too."

But, but Meijiu is a girl. You took her out in the middle of the night. You have to give her an explanation, right?

I was also anxious, and my words were a bit harsh, but my intentions were good.

"If you're willing, I... I can act as matchmaker for you and the wine, so you can be united in marriage. What do you say?"

The mother's eyes widened in shock. This Liu Kerong was truly fickle. She hadn't said that at all just now; her words were full of malice, as if she wanted to ruin her daughter's future.

Just as Mother was about to advise A-te against listening to her nonsense, she looked up and saw that A-te's face had changed from anger to joy, and he seemed ready to let go immediately.

"Are you telling the truth? Do you really think so?"

This really hurt Ate's feelings. He had always admired Wen Meijiu, but no matter how he acted, Wen Meijiu didn't seem to care.

If someone is willing to act as a matchmaker and talk to her parents about it, he'll have a better idea of ​​whether they're willing or not. Since things have already progressed this far, he can just go with the flow.

"Really, I really think so."

Liu Kerong seized the opportunity; she didn't care what Ate thought, all she wanted was to escape and avoid getting beaten up.

"You release it first. How am I supposed to respond if you do this?"

Art straightened her up, hesitated for a moment while holding her collar, but did not completely let go, only loosened his grip considerably. He needed to keep an eye on her and get this done now, lest things get complicated.

"That's what I'll say. If you dare to be disrespectful, I'll kill you on the spot."

Although he was still saying harsh words, his tone was much better than before. As he spoke, Art turned to look at his mother's expression; he was still somewhat wary.

"Good good."

Liu Kerong knew that Ate's actions were also meant to impress her mother; if she released her immediately, she wouldn't be able to explain it to her mother.

"Jiaoniang! Look, these two children are already like this. Why don't you just grant them their wish? Otherwise, it won't sound good when they go out. What do you say?"

Liu Kerong is shameless. Just now she was fighting fiercely with their whole family, and now she has the nerve to persuade her to marry off her daughter, especially to such a crude and uncouth man.

It's not that I look down on At. As friends, it's fine. But I just can't accept my daughter marrying At.

She couldn't possibly wrong Wen Meijiu just to silence the gossip.

The mother wanted to say no, but looking at Art's expectant face, the words stuck in her throat, neither coming out nor going out.

Art and his men are now part of the guard team, and we'll have to rely on them to overcome any obstacles on the road ahead. If I say anything too harsh, I'm afraid I'll hurt Art's feelings; he's the kind of person who's capable of anything.

Unable to agree or refuse, Mother was extremely anxious, looking at this and then at that.

However, everyone around seemed to have been led astray by Liu Kerong; they were all looking at her, waiting for an answer.

She pursed her lips again and again, her gaze falling once more on Liu Kerong's face. Suddenly, she noticed that Liu Kerong, looking at her anxious expression, had a hint of smugness on her lips.

With a "smack," her mother, both angry and anxious, slapped her hard again, this time stunning Liu Kerong.

"You, why did you hit someone again?"

Art grabbed her collar and wouldn't let go. She didn't dare to act recklessly for the time being, so she could only yell at her mother.

"I'm going to beat you up, you damned old hag!"

The breath that had been stuck in her throat was finally released, and her mind instantly became sharp, with an idea immediately popping out of her mouth.

"You old hag, you're always spreading rumors and causing trouble. She's still an unmarried girl, and you're spreading rumors about her and ruining her reputation. How will she ever get married?"

"We want her to marry Coach Te!"

Liu Kerong did it on purpose; she wanted to turn the rumor into fact so that Wen Meijiu would be unable to clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

"Yes, I can..."

At this moment, Art's desire to get married had reached its peak, and he never thought about what consequences this would bring to Wen Meijiu.

With a "smack," Mother slapped Ate on the shoulder again, startling him. He looked at Mother with some confusion.

"Are you crazy to find such a filthy person to be your matchmaker? Don't you find it unlucky and disgusting?"

"I don't think you're here to help. You're in cahoots with her, aren't you? You're just here to annoy me, aren't you?"

After his mother scolded him, Ate realized that Wen Meijiu's mother hated Liu Kerong so much that she would never ask her to be a matchmaker for her daughter. He was really grasping at straws in his desperation and had chosen the wrong person.

Ultimately, however, it was Liu Kerong who was too cunning, trying to use this incident to mislead him and avoid the punishment she deserved.

"Screw you!"

Art's face turned red. Before his mother could scold him again, he pushed Liu Kerong out of his arms, sending her flying far away. She looked like she had fallen and was in a lot of pain.

Even after throwing someone down, Ate still felt unsatisfied, because Liu Kerong had just instigated him to lose face in front of Wen Meijiu's mother, and how could he ever face her parents again?

"You old witch who spreads heresies, you won't change your ways unless you're taught a lesson."

Art chased after her, lifted her off the ground, her toes barely touching the ground.

Just as he lifted him up, Art used all his strength to throw him out again. Wen Deren quickly stepped forward to stop him, but was also kicked away by Art.
