After the marriage was broken off, the whole village next door regretted it

Before Shen Yi could even say anything to refuse, he was pulled away by Zeng Kuan.

Su Tai took everything in, felt very happy, and turned to leave.

In the evening, Shen Yi had not returned yet. Su Chunlin entered the village. When he learned that there was water in the well, he did not even bother to go home and rushed to the well immediately.

When Han saw him, she was pleasantly surprised and said, "Boss, come and see, there is water!"

Su Chunlin handed the bag to Han, poked his head into the well, and asked, "Is this enough water to irrigate the land?"

The people nearby answered, "It's good enough for our village to have water for drinking, but forget about using it for irrigation."

One person shook his head in disagreement, "If other wells also produce water, can't we irrigate the land?"

Su Chunlin nodded vigorously, "That's right, if there is water coming out from one place, there must be a second place where water can come out!"

Han smiled and took Su Chunlin home. On the way, she asked about the situation in the county town. "How is it? Did you borrow money?"

"I came back empty-handed after all this trip!" Su Chunlin snorted proudly, looking at the bag, "Big brother gave me a tael of silver and some food for emergency. With my sister-in-law here, big brother couldn't go too far. Besides, the road was not safe, so I didn't dare to ask for more. I just took a little bit. You don't know that I saw several people being robbed along the way. Fortunately, I was dressed in rags and covered in dirt, otherwise I really couldn't escape."

Originally he wanted to play the victim, but accidentally he managed to avoid some disaster.

Only then did Han realize that Su Chunlin was dressed in filth, not much better than a beggar, and immediately pulled him home quickly.

In the past two days, Han had not taken care of the situation at home, nor had she carefully recorded the water at home. When she opened the water jar, she found that the water she had robbed before was still there. The river mud had completely sunk to the bottom, and the water above was very clear. Thinking that water had been dug out in the village, Han gritted her teeth, picked up a bucket and asked Su Chunlin to take a shower in the field, and also water the field at the same time, so there was no waste at all.

Su Chunlin took a comfortable bath and cleaned the water tank at the same time. He scooped out the clean water on the top and put all the settled river mud on the ground. He wanted to save as much crops as possible.

When he finished his work, Shen Yi came back.

Su Chunlin was very surprised to see Shen Yi, "Why are you here?"

Shen Yi explained: "The water level of the Daxun River has dropped significantly recently. I walked along the river to this side."

Han quickly told her about Shen Yi's help in digging the well.

Su Chunlin looked grateful. He asked Han to cook a pot of noodle dumpling soup and pulled Shen Yi to sit down. "I was not at home these two days and didn't know you were coming. You can still sleep in that room tonight. I'll stay next door for one night."

He arranged everything in one go, not giving Shen Yi any chance to refuse.

Shen Yi could only accept it.

It was during the meal that Su Chunlin asked about the situation in Zhongmen Village.

Shen Yi sighed, "Zhongmen Village still hasn't found a suitable well site. The village chief wants us to hold on for another two days. I originally planned to go back early tomorrow morning, but Uncle Changxi won't let me go. I guess I have to stay here for another two days."

"It's no problem. You can live with me in Dongmen Village. You're welcome." Su Chunlin said enthusiastically.

Han was hesitant to speak, and after dinner, when the couple returned to their room, Han immediately told them about Shen Yi's broken engagement.

Su Chunlin was so angry that he rushed out to ask before Han finished speaking, "Shen Yi, your aunt said that the Mo family broke off your engagement?"

Shen Yi was stunned for a moment, subconsciously looked towards Su Tai's room, and slowly lowered his eyes, "Uncle Mo came here in person to apologize. The two families didn't formally get engaged, so it's no big deal."

"It's no big deal!" Su Chunlin was so angry that he jumped up and down. "You know what this marriage is all about. Mo Laotian promised his daughter to you to fulfill his promise. Now he wants to cancel the engagement? Your father died in vain!"

Shen Yi said with a stern face: "Uncle, Miss Mo didn't want to get married, so Uncle Mo had no choice but to cancel the engagement."

"You're still speaking for him!" Su Chunlin was so angry that his face turned red. "You believe everything he says! Even if the Mo family's girl really doesn't want to get married, so what? Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words. How can a girl like her not get married if she says she doesn't want to? When did Old Mo Tian become so easy to talk to? He's clearly bullying you because you have no parents!

No, this matter cannot be let go so easily, I have to go to the Mo family to seek justice for you."

Shen Yi held back the impulsive Su Chunlin, "Uncle, I know you mean well, but a forced melon is not sweet. I heard that Miss Mo ran away from home overnight and fell into a ravine in order not to marry me. She almost died. Uncle Mo must have been scared. He can't force his daughter to death for a marriage."

"Who told you that?" Su Chunlin stopped.

Shen Yi said: "Uncle Mo told me. When I went to Zhongmen Village to help yesterday, I also heard some rumors. People also said..."

"What did you say?" Su Chunlin was a little anxious.

Shen Yi pursed his lips and let go of her hand expressionlessly. "They also said that Miss Mo was rescued by Xiong Kai from the same village. Xiong Kai carried Miss Mo back home. The villagers of Ximen Village saw it with their own eyes. Uncle Mo meant that Miss Mo didn't want to marry me. In addition, it would affect my reputation, so forcing me to get married would not be good. However, he gave me a bag of food as compensation."

Upon hearing this, Han frowned tightly, "How could it be that bastard Xiong Kai! You and Xiao Tai are so unlucky!"

Su Chunlin stroked his chin and fell into deep thought, but he stopped clamoring to settle the score with Mo Laotian.

When Shen Yi returned to his room to rest, Han lowered her voice and asked in confusion, "Are you not going to care about it? Shen Yi's father is your savior after all."

Su Chunlin pulled Han away a little before saying, "Who said I don't care! Look, our daughter's engagement was broken off by Xiong Kai, and there are all kinds of rumors out there. It's hard to say anything bad about him in the future. I was worried that our daughter wouldn't be able to get married, but look! God immediately sent us a ready-made son-in-law!"

"Are you talking about Shen Yi and Xiao Tai?" Han covered her mouth in surprise.

Su Chunlin nodded excitedly, "Shen Yi is someone I have watched grow up. He is much stronger than Xiong Kai. Before, I felt sorry that Mo Laotian got such a great bargain, but things turned out to be unexpected. Hehehe..."

Shenjiazhuang is quite far from Dongmen Village, and a round trip takes a day.

In the past, Su Chunlin would visit Shen Yi once a year and give him some gifts. He really watched Shen Yi grow up.

After Su Chunlin's reminder, Han smiled instantly, "Boss, you are really smart. Why didn't I think of that? And I think Shen Yi treats our little Tai very well. They even went out together early this morning."

"Really?" Su Chunlin's eyes brightened.

Han nodded desperately, "But you have to ask the Mo family about the matter clearly. If it's really like what Shen Yi said, you have to go there as well. Let's talk it out, and the Xiong family has to show some appreciation. Don't let Shen Yi suffer any loss."

The account from that year has not been settled yet, so the Mo family cannot repay the life-saving favor with a bag of grain.
