Chapter 127 - [Bonus ]

' At least Fang Chi is good looking' , ' good looking, ' good looking!'. 

After the facade was over, Yu Dong declared that she will soon send Matchmaker Wang to deliver betrothal gifts on a good day. Yu Dong didn't look happy or sad but at least she didn't seem resistant towards marrying him. After she left with her husbands, Fang Chi was dragged back home by Grandma Fang either but not before Grandma Fang was done spitting at the completely surprised Madam Zhang and Madam Li.

She would have spat on Xiao Wen too if Madam Zhang didn't run after them.

" seriously doesn't know what's good for them !" bristled Grandma Fang as she forcefully banged the pot on the stove as if it was Madam Zhang's head " you are lucky that Yu Dong is a decent woman and won't let you suffer at all, I can see that she treats her husbands really well! Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken your responsibility at all! That too when she was being coerced like that - seriously, are you a rotten vegetable or something that the entire village tried so hard to shove you in Yu Dong's home?"

She picked up the chopping knife and started cutting the sea cucumber into tiny pieces, and continued on with her scolding " and you, you are stupid too! If you didn't take such a drastic step then Yu Dong wouldn't have to take you to her house in such a disgraceful way.  Even if you were to marry Yu Dong, later on, we could have respectfully discussed it. But no, you just have to jump the bow! Now, look what you have done! Because of your stupidity, this has become a fine example of forced marriage than just a happy occasion! How thick is your head Chi? How could you make such a mistake?"

"I... I am sorry grandmother, I wasn't thinking straight. But what could I have done? Whenever I went out they called me Yu Dong's secret lover and a mistress. Some even called me disgusting names,  what else could I have done we couldn't even get a match for me and if we did get one, the villagers would ruin it for me " Fang Chi was also regretful now, he didn't know since when he became this delicate that he couldn't take the jeering of the villagers. Was it because his heart still hasn't healed after all? Fang Chi shook his head there was no need for him to think of his past, now he was going to get married. But when he thought about how Yu Dong was literally coerced into marrying him, he once again became mournful and let out a small sniff.

" oi! Oi! Oi! You boy don't you dare to cry on such a happy day!" snapped Grandma Fang as she flicked the willow stick like poker at Fang Chi's calves " no matter how and what, you got engaged in one way or another, don't shed tears on the day when you met your destined person. It's called bad luck for a reason you know, if you cry today then you will cry for your entire life, do you want that?"

Fang Chi shook his head and willed his tears away after listening to his Grandmother's word, however, he still felt a bit awkward as he twiddled with his fingers he asked " grandmother - do....do you think that Yu Dong will like me? I mean she did get forced into accepting me ?"

" I won't say that she will accept you right away but " Grandma Fang could understand why her grandson was conflicted like this, for years he had Mu Yuxi in his heart but then she betrayed him, however, Grandma Fang knew that Yu Dong was the one who was good for him. There must be some sort of helplessness because of losing that piece of himself, but at least he was happy with this engagement " but as long as you are kind to her, she will be kind to you. And it wouldn't take long for you two to fall for each other, love is not a necessity always Chi. Love can even happen after marriage what's important is that you stay true to your wife. As long as you are faithful, loving and caring - I don't think that Yu Dong won't reciprocate your feelings. She is not an unreasonable woman, you know? At least compared to other women of the village and all your matches, she is the best one. If not for her being already married, I would have tried to set you with her, myself, first. But, whatever - what's written in the stars, can never be changed"

-

" This is so unreasonable !" snapped Chen Mi after returning home, he stomped all the way inside to the dining room and sat down on the chair with an ugly pout on his face, and crossed his arms in front like a child who was refused of his candy " how can that just force you to marry him like that? How can they do this! Is forcing a bridegroom on a good woman a trend now? Is that it huh?"

Ye Liu was also conflicted with what happened but he didn't know how to react. Should he be angry first or he should get jealous first? His mind couldn't just cope with the incidents that just happened. Everything happened at fast that he was still in shock - he was just washing the dirty laundry in his backyard normally while humming a folk tune normally - how come the day escalated into his wife getting another husband so abnormally? 

Shen Li too was really unhappy with the villagers, he knew that they were trying to find trouble with their family for no reason but forcing their wife to marry Fang Chi that was totally wrong! How can they do this? Their wife already had enough on her plate as it is, why trouble her? " I know you are upset but you need to understand that Fang Chi is a victim too, he was bullied until he took such a drastic step, if anything it's the fault of the villagers and I say Dong Dong what are you trying to do exactly ?" added Shen Li looking down at the spot where Yu Dong was completely prostrate on the ground in a Dogeza.

" This... This is.... This is you know" said Yu Dong as she lifted her head up and looked at her three ' angry' husbands and then kowtowed on the floor again " I'm so sorry for being such a dirty and unfaithful wife, I can't apologise enough..  I know but I really, really like you three. And I do hope you three will forgive my imprudence of accepting another husband without consulting you three"
