Three Women in the Cage

At the dinner table that day, Zhang's mother laughed happily and said, "Oh, there is good news at home again. Our Sanmao has made it big. We will soon have a big fat grandson, haha." She was smiling from ear to ear.

After saying this, he deliberately glanced at Yang Yu and the granddaughter on his back, his eyes full of disgust. Yang Yu pretended not to see it, but was curious. Where did Zhang Sanmao go to pick up a girl? He hadn't even brought her back to see her, and she got pregnant already. He had just provoked Liu Chunxiang, and now he had provoked another one so quickly! She said that this Zhang Sanmao was not a good person, and glanced at him with disgust.

"Let's pick a day, have both sets of parents meet, and settle the matter. It's not a good idea to do it like this now," said Zhang's father, sounding a little serious.

"Dad, Mom, Chunxiang hasn't told her parents yet. She's afraid of being beaten. You know, this kind of thing..." Zhang Sanmao couldn't continue and felt a little ashamed.

"This is easy. I'm pregnant now, and I'm worried they won't agree. After all, they'll be the ones gossiping about me then," said Zhang's father firmly.

Yang Yu had been stunned ever since she heard Zhang Sanmao utter the words "Chun Xiang." After the last incident, they had gotten together and even crossed the line. She had tried to dissuade them, but to no avail. Since Chun Xiang was desperately trying to come in and become her sister-in-law, then let her be.

A few days later, Zhang's parents packed up early and prepared to take Zhang Sanmao to visit. Because they had always favored their third son, they were determined to finalize the marriage. They bought a large piece of pork and a pot of old wine and went happily.

Zhang Sanmao had informed Liu Chunxiang ahead of time, so Liu Chunxiang had his parents stay home that day. "Dad, Mom, Sanmao's parents are coming over today. You should stay for a day. They want to visit." "Why are you hanging out with that guy again? I told you not to hang out with him, didn't you hear? Didn't you know about Yang Yu's visit to their house? Why did you still go and join in the fun?"

Liu's father was adamantly against their relationship, so he personally pulled his daughter back. He didn't want his daughter to continue to contact him privately, even dragging the other party's parents into the conversation. He wanted to see what they had to say so that he could reject her clearly.

"Okay, let's wait for them to come today and have the two families talk it out to stop you from thinking about it. Just wait and see how I'll make them go back in disgrace," said Father Liu with a stern look.

After hearing what Liu's father said, Liu Chunxiang became a little worried. Her parents didn't know about her situation yet, so she didn't dare to tell them. She was suddenly afraid that if they came and made the situation clear, she would be beaten to death by Liu's father. Thinking of this, she became more nervous and uneasy.

She decided to wait outside so she could talk to Brother Sanmao later. Standing at the intersection outside the door, she kept looking around, fearing that her parents would come out and accuse her of being unreserved and arrest her. While she was anxiously waiting, she finally saw a group of people slowly approaching.

The one leading the way was her brother Sanmao, followed by Zhang's father and mother. Liu Chunxiang hurried to meet them and greeted the elders first, "Uncle, aunt, you are here, come in quickly." After that, he walked in front of Zhang Sanmao and whispered, "Brother Sanmao, I'm afraid my parents will find out and beat me to death. What should I do? I'm a little nervous."

"Don't be afraid, my parents are here, don't worry," Zhang Sanmao comforted her. In fact, he himself was not sure and was afraid that he would be beaten out, but now that he was already here, he could only give it a try.

Zhang's father and mother walked in first. Before they even entered the house, Zhang's father shouted loudly, "Hey, in-laws, we are here to visit you! Hehe," and then he walked in.

Liu's parents heard the voices before they saw the person, and they knew that this family was good at talking. When they entered the house, they saw that all the relatives had called them, and the smiles on their faces made them feel scared, and they couldn't show their expressions for a while.

Seeing that Liu's parents didn't say anything, they said to themselves without embarrassment, "Hey, we should have come to visit earlier. You raised such a good daughter, but I'm so envious. I always thought that such a good daughter must have very outstanding parents too. Sure enough, when I saw it today, brother and sister, you are so outstanding." After that, they winked at Zhang's mother.

Mother Zhang quickly agreed: "That's right, that's right. Hey, I felt so close to you when I saw you. I said I liked Chunxiang so much when I saw him. Oh, by the way, this is a little thing we brought with us. See where I put it." As she spoke, Mother Zhang shook the thing in her hand forward.

"We probably know the purpose of your visit today, so we don't need any gifts. Also, don't call us in-laws yet. We in Chunxiang will never marry into your family. As for the reason, you should also know how Yang Yu from the same village married your second son. How is she doing in your family? I don't think I need to say anything," said Liu's father indifferently.

"Yes, it's not that we don't give you face. After all, you come from so far away. It's really that your family is not suitable for our Chunxiang. Look at how many brothers you have. It will be too hard for them to marry there. We in Chunxiang can't bear that hardship." Mother Liu felt a little embarrassed to slap them in the face.

Zhang Sanmao, who was standing aside, suddenly became a little angry and couldn't help saying, "But we like each other, why can't we be together? Now it's free love, not marriage that requires parents to decide." There was a hint of unwillingness in his eyes as he said this.

Father Liu was unhappy after hearing this. "You little bastard, it's easy to say, but you tricked our Chunxiang into following you and messed with her reputation. I haven't said anything to you yet, but you jumped out first."

At this time, Liu's father saw Liu Chunxiang standing next to Zhang Sanmao, and shouted angrily, "Chunxiang, what are you doing so close to him? Come here quickly. You are a woman waiting to be married, what do you look like?"

When Liu Chunxiang heard what his father said, he looked at Zhang Sanmao and walked over a little at a loss.

Father Zhang narrowed his eyes, feeling that today's conversation would probably not continue, so he thought for a while and said, "Brother, it's not that we are anxious, we are just worried that Chunxiang's health can't wait." After saying that, he looked at Chunxiang meaningfully.

Hearing this, Liu Chunxiang's heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, the next second, his father's voice roared over, "What do you mean, Chunxiang? What do you mean, Chunxiang? Tell me, what does he mean?" Liu's father couldn't believe it. When did the daughter he watched every day become pregnant? It was simply intolerable to him.

Liu Chunxiang was obviously frightened by his father's stern voice and didn't dare to speak for a while. Until his father's stern voice came again, he said tremblingly, "Dad, I...I", but he couldn't say it anymore and couldn't help crying.
