After the matter was opened up, the relationship between the two families became closer. After Yao An married into the city, the two sisters visited each other more frequently. That day, my aunt asked my cousin to deliver something to her, and she accidentally twisted her ankle and fell into my arms.

"Ah...hahaha, that's how it is."

Xu Tao scratched her head embarrassedly. She knew that An Yuejin had two uncles, and both of his uncles' families had boys, while the An family only had his father as an only son. Who would have known that there would be such a thing?

Facing the man's accusation, Xu Tao immediately changed the subject, "Your family is from the city, so why are you in town today?"

An Yuejin glanced at the little girl with resentment before continuing, "I came to town today to visit Grandpa Yao and Grandma Yao."

After hesitating for a moment, he said awkwardly, "Who was that man who touched your head just now?"

"My cousin, dear."

An Yuejin's eyes lit up, and he clenched his fist uncomfortably and coughed, "Then...then are we...still...a couple?"

"Um......"

An Yuejin's heart was pounding as he held his breath waiting for the answer.

"What do you like about me? You should know that I'm dating you because you bring me food and drinks. Later, I agreed to meet your parents because I knew your family was well off and that I would enjoy a happy life if I married you."

"I know you like everything, but these are what I already have, right? I am still the one who likes these things. And isn't the purpose of getting married to enjoy happiness?"

An Yuejin's eyes were filled with clear stupidity. He never cared about what Taotao liked about him. It was enough as long as he would always have it.

Moreover, he believed that with his own abilities, he would be able to possess the same things that attracted Taotao in the future.

Xu Tao was stuck for a moment. She really had no way to refute this reason and looked at the boy opposite her seriously.

She has an excellent appearance, is the tallest among the current ones, and has a good temper and is very tolerant. There is really no reason to refuse her.

"If you don't mind, we can continue dating, but I don't want to get married so soon. I have to wait at least a year.

And when I get married, I will definitely bring my grandma, my parents, and you and your family can't accept that, so let's not waste time."

"Yes, I can accept it."

An Yuejin felt that it was not a big deal, as it was natural for both sides to be filial to their parents.

"Then we're a couple from now on. You can't do anything to let me down."

"I promise not."

"Then we're a couple from now on."

After hearing this, a mist quickly appeared in An Yuejin's eyes, and he immediately hugged the treasure that he had lost and found.

Xu Tao was stunned for a moment, then reached out to hug the other person and rubbed him affectionately.

The two seemed to have chatted for a long time, but in fact it was less than half an hour. Thinking that she had to go back to the village to return the ox cart, she made an appointment with her boyfriend to meet the day after tomorrow and ran home quickly.

"Dear Taobao, you're back. Come and eat your buns. After you're done, we'll go back."

"Milk, you eat too."

Xu Tao took the bun from her grandmother's hand and turned around to wink at her second brother ingratiatingly.

Xu Ershi glanced at his sister unhappily and said it would be soon.

"Mom, why don't you let Taotao stay in town for two days? I'm worried about Taotao going back with that girl around."

"Yes, mother, Taotao has a room here too. Let Taotao stay here for two days."

Liu Pan'er really likes her niece, and she is naturally heartbroken to see that she was almost killed by someone. That bad guy lives next door and it is hard to guard against him. Who knows if she will do it again if she fails this time.

"this....."

The old lady didn't want to be separated from her granddaughter, but the second son and his wife were right, and she was in a dilemma.

"Grandma, Uncle and Aunt, I have to go back. I'll come back the day after tomorrow. And I have to go back eventually. There's no such thing as a thief who steals all day long."

Seeing that their niece insisted, Xu Erzhu and his wife stopped trying to dissuade her and went to work after seeing her off.

The ox cart continued its journey and was successfully returned before it was used.

"Mom, you're back. How's Taotao?"

By now, most of the villagers were awake. Zhang Guifen's eyes rolled as she slapped her thigh and wailed, "My sweetheart is in such a bad situation. She fell down a slope and the doctor said she's injured something internally. She won't recover for three to five years. She can't even do any heavy work, or it'll shorten her lifespan. Woo woo woo, my poor sweetheart~"

As the smartest one in the family, Xu Sizhu naturally understood his mother's intentions and echoed, "Oh, that's right. My good daughter has been made like this by a wicked man. It's all because of me, as a useless father..."

The mother and daughter cooperated well with each other. After singing, reciting, acting and fighting for a while, they angrily kicked open the door next door. The already shaky wooden door broke down completely after two attempts, and fell to the ground with a clang, breaking into pieces.

The villagers sighed and thought, what's wrong with venting their anger when the child is in such a state?

"Mom, second brother, what the Li family did was not right, but we are reasonable and we are from the same village, so let it go. Let Taotao stay at home to recuperate. With so many people in our family, we can definitely support her if we tighten our belts."

Xu Dazhu pulled the two of them home, and He Chunhua quickly closed the door to block out the view from outside.

Without the villagers' attention, the mother and son instantly regained their composure.

"Brother, you performed well."

Xu Sizhu gave a thumbs up. After all this publicity, he wondered who would dare to make a fuss about his precious daughter not working.

"Of course. How's Taotao? Is she okay?"

"Uncle, I'm fine, look."

Xu Tao turned around twice and stopped. She glanced at the bicycle in the corner and asked in confusion, "When did we get a bicycle? Did a guest come over?"

"No, this car will belong to our family from now on."

"Oh my God, Fourth Wife, are you telling the truth?"

The old lady quickly moved to the side of the bicycle, wiped her hands on her clothes, and then touched it carefully.

"Of course it's real, mother. I brought this back from the Qin family. From now on, it belongs to our family. You can use it as you like."

Qin Caiyun waved her hand domineeringly, attracting a crowd of admiring glances.

Xu Tao's mouth twitched. She knew without asking that her mother had gone back to her parents' home to get some money.

"My dear, what are you looking at? When your injury gets better, Mom will take you to the city. Your niece has been injured, so your uncle should at least show some appreciation."

Qin Caiyun thought about getting some good things again, and her beautiful almond eyes were filled with joy. After all, those things originally belonged to her, so it was reasonable for her to take them back.

"Mom, please tell me why your uncle has to give it to you even though he clearly doesn't want to?"

"Because that's your uncle's compensation, just a hypocritical thing. Taotao, you don't have to be polite when you see him in the future."

Qin Caiyun felt sick at the thought of her hypocritical brother. If it weren't for him, how could her family have ended up in this state? She didn't know where her parents were and whether they were doing well.
