Chapter 70: Jiaojiao is spoiled by the rough man

"Yeah, I think so too, but if you and Wanwan don't have enough time, your second sister and I can go over there. Anyway, we are just going to tell our father a message. I have already prepared the gifts for our father."

Su Wanwan turned to look at Xu Yan's reaction.

"Although this is not a real engagement, everyone has already regarded Wanwan as a member of our Xu family. It would be unreasonable for me not to bring Wanwan to meet our father. How can I not let my family know about such a happy event?" Xu Yan's voice was very low, but his tone was firm.

"Wanwan, the news of your engagement to Xu Yan will spread throughout our area within two days. Who knows how envious other villages will be!"

After all the dishes were served on the table, everyone who had been waiting for a long time finally picked up their chopsticks hurriedly, not even bothering to talk.

Su Wanwan walked past several tables and could only hear the sound of people eating at the side. It was not until she was about to walk back to her mother Zhao Ying with Xu Yan that an old lady from the village finally grabbed her dress.

"Ah..." Su Wanwan agreed somewhat awkwardly.

How did the aunt want her to respond by saying this?

In an instant, countless inappropriate words popped up in Su Wanwan's mind. After going around in circles, she couldn't find a suitable response to the old lady's words. She could only laugh awkwardly twice, trying to get away with it and want to walk back to Zhao Ying quickly.

"Of course, the reason why I asked everyone to come to the county town for dinner is that I want everyone in our village to be a witness and let more people know about my and Wanwan's happy event."

As expected of Xu Yan, he always managed to find a solution in critical moments. Su Wanwan had already quietly pulled on his clothes and was ready to leave, but Xu Yan stood there motionless, responding to the old lady's words with a smile, and even had a brief chat with her.

Su Wanwan: "..."

Is he usually this cheerful?

In my impression, Xu Yan has always been a taciturn and silent person. How come he could coordinate such a large occasion in such an orderly manner today?

Su Wanwan couldn't help but imagine how busy Xu Yan had been these days arranging everything. She felt a little distressed. Why didn't Xu Yan tell her and ask her to help him do so many things by himself?

"Xu Yan, tell me the truth, when did you two start dating?"

Unexpectedly, Xu Yan responded to her so enthusiastically. The old lady immediately let go of the hand that was holding Su Wan's evening dress, turned around and grabbed Xu Yan's wrist, and kept pulling him towards her. Her voice sounded much more friendly than before.

Su Wanwan's head was half covered with black lines.

She knew that once she started talking to this lady, she would not be able to leave here for three to five minutes.

If things go as expected, more aunties and grandmas will gather around and ask questions collectively.

After all, even in the village, when these aunties have nothing to do, they will gather together to talk about this and that, and the content is all about the gossips of other people's families.

It seems that the value of these aunties' existence is to constitute the intelligence station of their village. Whenever something happens in someone's family, the fastest way to spread the news is through these idle aunties.

What Su Wanwan feared the most finally happened.

"Auntie, if you're asking that... I'll tell you the truth." Noticing that Su Wanwan's face had darkened slightly, Xu Yan patted the wrinkled back of the aunt's hand as if to comfort her, "Wanwan and I have been together for several months."

"Several months? Then why did our villagers only know about it in the past two days? Were you already together when you went to another village for exchange last time?"

After hearing Xu Yan's answer, the old lady asked immediately.

The other people who heard the voices also put down their bowls and chopsticks. Several elderly ladies came over at lightning speed.

"You see, I knew from the beginning that the relationship between these two people was special." The voice of the lady who came over first came over before she dragged her chair over.

Su Wanwan slowly took half a step back.

If she was the one who started this anger, she would naturally find a way to "deal with" these ladies, but Xu Yan deliberately stopped to answer this lady's question just now... then she couldn't do anything about it.

"Well, Wanwan and I were already together at that time. Auntie, Wanwan and I will go and toast to our parents first. You guys eat first."

Noticing that Su Wanwan took half a step back, Xu Yan silently pulled her hand, squeezed it a little, smiled at the aunties who gathered quickly in front of him, and then took Su Wanwan's hand and walked to the Su family's table.

I immediately kept a distance from these ladies.

"I'm scared to death. Do you know that being questioned by those people feels like torture?" Su Wanwan said in a low voice as they walked forward with Xu Yan.

"Those uncles and aunts are also concerned about me." Xu Yan did not look awkward at all, but rather calm.

"No, they ask this and that just to have something to talk about when we get back to the village. Just wait and see. Our story will definitely be a hot topic in the village for some time to come. We'll be talked about wherever we go."

When Su Wanwan thought of this, she felt a little unhappy.

It would be fine if these people just followed the procedure and told the truth, but the problem is that something that is obviously a small matter may become a big deal when it reaches the mouths of those people in the village who like to gossip about other people's affairs.

Not only that, these people also like to exaggerate and force things that are originally unrelated to be together. I don’t know how many people in the village have been slandered in this way, and they have not been able to "clear themselves" for many years.

"Just let it be said, what are you afraid of?" Xu Yan looked at Su Wanwan's slightly frowning expression with amusement, "Are you going to live in the village for the rest of your life?"

Xu Yan's simple words instantly woke up Su Wanwan's dizzy head.

Yes, anyway, in a year or so she will pass the college entrance examination and leave this remote village. What do these people in the village say about her then? What does it have to do with her?

The two of them returned briskly to the table where the Su family was. When the dishes were just served, the four little guys couldn't help but touch them and kept stealing glances at the big fish and meat on the table. When they were finally allowed to eat, the four little guys stuffed the food into their mouths desperately, and their eight little hands were all greasy.

"Mom, you eat this. I have never eaten this kind of meat!" While eating, Xiao Qianshan did not forget to share half of the meat in his bowl with Jiang Shuzhen, and said in a baby voice.

"it is good."

Not to mention the children, even the adults who came here had never seen so many kinds of meat in their lives. Although they took their status as adults into consideration and could not eat like starving children, many of the dishes that had just been served on the table were still gobbled up by everyone without them noticing. In less than ten minutes, only a small half was left.
