Reborn in 1979, with a female educated youth lying next to me.

"Son, what did you just say? What do you mean I disagree? I live for you. Whoever you like, we'll marry them. I agree!"

Zhang Dalaba's words immediately turned the situation around.

In the blink of an eye, he turned the incident of Da Chui acting like a hooligan into him breaking up a loving couple.

At this moment, Zhang Yanzi was completely bewildered.

Liu Jia rejected him, and Zhang Guilan made such firm statements that he had no choice but to take this risk!

She had planned to force Liu Jia to marry her in front of the whole village.

But who would have thought that in the end, Big Hammer would take the blame!

After being made such a scene by the mother and daughter, he had no way out.

Being bullied in the bamboo forest already ruined his reputation, but Liu Jia's nonsense made him look like he was having an affair with Big Hammer!

If I refuse to hit the hammer at this point, won't I be drowned in the spittle of Xili Village?

If you don't refuse, you'll spend your whole life following that sledgehammer—what kind of life is that...?

Zhang Yanzi wanted to cry but couldn't; her mind went completely blank.

"I'm going to sue you, you big hammer! I'm going to sue you!"

In desperation, Zhang Yanzi burst into tears.

The truth has come to light!

Everyone understood what had happened.

"That Zhang family girl is really something else. She said Liu Jia bullied her before and wanted him to take responsibility. Now she's going to sue Big Hammer. This matter is probably related to Big Hammer!"

"What do you mean it's related or not? Didn't you hear what Liu Jia said? Those two are living together in private. It's truly shameful!"

"Since you've both fallen for each other, why not get married? What are you doing running off to the bamboo forest?"

"That girl is dishonest; I don't think she's a good person!"

People started gossiping, and some even pointed fingers at Zhang Yanzi.

Swallow's mother pinched Zhang Yanzi's arm hard, almost squeezing out a sentence through gritted teeth.

"What are you going to sue for? Just shut up. If you sue Big Hammer, who'll still want to marry you?"

Zhang Yanzi was stunned. Looking at the disdainful looks in everyone's eyes, they clearly regarded her as a slut!

That's it, no matter what I say this time, no one will believe me.

"Mom, what should I do? This isn't right, I've been scammed! Why am I so unlucky?"

Zhang Yanzi was sobbing, and Liu Jia next to her just snorted coldly.

You acted against your conscience, and now you're complaining that you were cheated?

So what about me? Does that mean I should just stick my head out and let you trick me?

This isn't bad luck, this is reaping what you sowed!

Absolutely deserved it!

Seeing the expression on Yanzi's mother's face, Zhang Dalaba seized the opportunity and started shouting loudly in front of everyone.

"Since everyone's here, I'd like to ask the team leader and the matchmaker to be my witnesses. My husband, Big Hammer, may be a bit old, but he's definitely not going to be stingy when it comes to marriage!"

"Although this has happened, we will not bully anyone. We will provide everything that is due, and the bride price will not be reduced by a single penny!"

"Just now, maybe Yanzi and Dachuizi had a little tiff. Everyone, wait for the wedding candy!"

Swallow's mother's palms felt cold, and a chill began to seep from the back of her neck.

With Zhang Dalaba's announcement, the affair between Zhang Yanzi and Da Chuizi was implicitly confirmed.

Isn't this just like betrothing your own daughter?

With her being so loud and boisterous, who would dare to marry their daughter in the future?

Just then, several older women nearby, after hearing the conversation, actually offered their congratulations in front of everyone.

Zhang Dalaba was laughing so hard he couldn't stop.

Swallow's mother almost fainted!

"Alright, something came up today, so we'll cancel the study session. It's getting late, everyone can go home now."

Zhou Fengshou spoke with a long face.

Although people were unwilling and wanted to continue watching the saga unfold, they had no choice but to stand up and head towards the door since the captain had spoken.

Liu Jia approached Zhou Fengshou.

"Captain, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

"Let's go!"

Zhou Fengshou waved his hand, then turned and glared at Zhang Yanzi.

Zhou Caixia deliberately raised her head, "These days, you have to be careful when you walk. There are too many mad dogs on the street, and you never know when you might get bitten!"

After saying these words, Zhou Caixia followed Liu Jia out.

Before they even left the production team's courtyard, everyone had already started chattering away.

Despite the talk, people already had a pretty good idea of ​​what really happened.

The laughter that came out was all mocking Zhang Yanzi.

……

"Third brother, I never thought you'd run into this. Zhang Yanzi is so ruthless; you almost got stuck with her."

Zhou Caixia was still shaken by what had just happened.

Wang Liqiu suddenly stopped and spat hard on the ground.

"Impossible! Third Brother isn't stupid, would he let him lead him by the nose?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Liqiu suddenly moved closer to Liu Jia and spoke in a much softer voice.

"Third Brother, about what you said today, is it true? Is that woman Zhang Yanzi really that promiscuous..."

Liu Jia coughed twice and rubbed his nose. "You've been up all night, don't you feel tired? Go home and get some sleep!"

"Okay, I need to get some rest. I still need to find out about Zhang Yanzi and Da Chuizi tomorrow!"

Wang Liqiu was overjoyed that Liu Jia was alright, while Zhou Caixia, who was standing next to him, also laughed and scolded him.

The moon is very round tonight, shining brightly on the ground.

"The moon is shining brightly, open the door and do your laundry..."

Recalling the nursery rhymes from her childhood, Liu Jia couldn't help but recite a couple of lines.

With such beautiful moonlight shining, I'm sure I won't be able to sleep tonight...

The next morning, before dawn, Liu Jia heard a knock on the door.

Liu Yutian quickly put on his clothes and went outside, asking as he went, "Who is it?"

"Brother Liu, it's me."

Liu Yutian was taken aback, and his pace slowed down considerably.

It's just dawn, what's Zhang the loudspeaker up here for?

"What's wrong with you?"

Through the door, Liu Yutian asked a question.

Zhang Dalaba's voice sounded anxious, and he spoke much faster.

"Brother Liu, please open the door first, I have something to do."

Liu Yutian quickly buttoned up the buttons before opening the door.

Zhang Dalaba carried a basket filled with eggs that were overflowing.

Before even reaching the middle of the courtyard, Zhang the Louba was already speaking with a big smile on his face.

"Brother Liu, we owe you a lot for what happened yesterday. Please keep this basket of eggs."

When yesterday's events were brought up, Liu Yutian's face darkened.

“Take the things back. My third son has been wronged. What he said and did was all to tell everyone the truth. Don’t send us anything. We didn’t mean to help anyone.”

Liu Yutian spoke righteously and didn't even glance at Zhang Dalaba.

“Look at this, that’s not what I meant. I meant that if Liu Jia hadn’t said those things, my son’s marriage would be…”

"Big Hammer's marriage has nothing to do with us. If he can marry Old Zhang's daughter, it's fate; if he can't, it's not fate. Take your things back."

fate?

Zhang Dalaba's eyes darted around twice, and he immediately realized what was going on.

"Yes, Big Brother is right. It's fate that we became husband and wife. I was confused. This has nothing to do with Sanzi. I won't mention it again!"

After saying that, Zhang Dalaba ran off carrying the eggs.

Liu Yutian sighed helplessly, walked to the base of the wall, picked up a broom, and began sweeping the yard.

I was angry about what happened yesterday. Things went in circles by some twist of fate, and in the end, Old Zhang's daughter and Big Hammer became the laughing stock in everyone's mouth.

However, the thought of Zhang Yanzi wrongly accusing Liu Jia still left Liu Yutian feeling uneasy.

These people have no conscience at all!

If you don't behave properly and spend all your time scheming, you'll work yourself to death sooner or later!

Zhang Dalaba's eggs are absolutely forbidden to be accepted, not even touched, otherwise, the Liu family will be in deep trouble!

During the meal, Liu Yutian brought up this matter, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Liu Jianye took a bite out of half of the cornbread and chewed it vigorously a few times.

"Those bastards are all scoundrels, not a single one of them is any good. We can't associate with them anymore!"

"We're all from the same village, we'll run into each other all the time, let's not make things too awkward. At worst, we can just avoid them when we see them."

Zhang Guilan couldn't keep things to herself. Although she had three sons to support her, she still trembled when she heard about a fight in someone's family.

Moreover, Liu Jia was also involved in the matter, and Zhang Guilan didn't sleep well all night.

Hearing her second son say they wouldn't keep in touch, Zhang Guilan became worried again.

Having another enemy in the village is ultimately not a good thing.

Liu Jia saw through Zhang Guilan's thoughts and quickly followed up on what he was saying.

"I understand, Mother. Don't worry. After this incident, they'll be much quieter from now on. We'll just ignore them."

Liu Jia didn't say the rest.

As long as they shut up, I can turn a blind eye.

If anyone tries to scheme against me like they did yesterday, then don't blame me for being tough!

Making them suffer the consequences is too lenient a punishment!

That morning, Zhang the loudspeaker started shouting all over the place, telling everyone he met that his son, Big Hammer, was getting married.

People said some celebratory things to your face, but behind your back they were all smirking.

Zhang Dababa, who had an affair in the bamboo forest, still treats his wife like a treasure and pampers her. He's really never seen anything like it!

"Cuihua is going to be a mother-in-law, look how happy she is, I've never seen her so happy before."

"What's there to be happy about? We're not even sure if we can keep this wife! She dares to go into the bamboo forest with Big Hammer today, and she'll dare to sleep with another man tomorrow!"

"That can't be! Zhang Dalaba (a nickname for a wealthy man) really paid a hefty sum; I heard he gave a lot in betrothal gifts!"

"I'm afraid that even the swallow I marry will fly away!"

After whispering among themselves, the group burst into laughter.

For a time, everyone was focused on Big Hammer's wedding.

But Liu Jia was thinking about something else.
