Chapter 291 Forced Marriage
Today's incident came so suddenly that Lin Wei was a little caught off guard.
However, Nie's gentle words on the phone left the haze that has enveloped Lin Wei's heart in the past two days. All morning, her heart was full of happiness.
Since Lin Wei came home, her gambling father has been forcing her to get married in order to covet the 30,000 yuan gift of the man who is a civil servant in the town, regardless of the fact that the man is seven or eight years older than Lin Wei and is extremely poor-looking.
Lin Wei's mother has been sick in bed for the past two years. Although Lin's father is addicted to gambling, he doesn't treat his woman like beating and scolding like a red-eyed gambler, which is still a little humane.
On the contrary, Lin's mother made her feel more and more that she was a burden to the family. She only dared not say anything about her husband's behavior, and she felt that she was ashamed to say it. She could only quietly wipe her tears to her daughter when Lin's father was drinking.
Lin Wei's younger brother, Lin Tao, is in high school. He feels sorry for his sister. He quarreled with his father about his father forcing his sister to get married. He was beaten black and blue by his face, and he was scolded, "It's all caused by you, a little beast. If you hadn't spent all your family's money at school, I wouldn't have forced your sister to get married!" " Lin Tao ran away from home in anger, and he didn't go to school. He simply dropped out of school and went to work in Guangzhou.
In addition to paying off the debt to her mother's arrears and adding some furniture for the family, Lin Wei's 10,000 yuan earned from Donggang, the remaining tens of thousands of yuan was secretly turned out by her father to gamble. It took a day to lose all, and Lin's father borrowed another 3,000 yuan from the banker because he lost his eyes. As a result, only the trousers left to go home.
Lin's father was forced to be anxious because of the usury of the 3,000 yuan he owed. He had no choice but to find himself, who was 70 years old. His father, who lived on farming, borrowed money and was scolded by the old man. Lin's father was so angry that he beat his father into the hospital. After Lin's father came back, he forced his daughter to hurry up. Get married, get married, or the whole family will be burned with a torch!
Lin Wei is not afraid that her father will burn herself to death, but she can't ignore her family. She once thought about resisting her father's arrangement desperately. As a girl in the flower season, she dreamed of chasing her own happiness, but looking at the dilapidated scene of the family, watching her mother relying on drugs all day long, watching her father fall deeper and deeper by gambling, and thinking of her grandfather lying sick and scolding "rebellious son", Lin Wei, who is kind-hearted. Shaking...
As a relatively orthodox rural girl, Lin Wei thought that she had lost her body. Maybe she would no longer have her own love in the future. Although the man can't do it, at least the job is decent. Being a civil servant in the town has a salary of more than 3,000 yuan a month, and the welfare benefits are also good. Lin Wei Under the oppression of his father and his mother's tears, he finally agreed to choose a date to get married last night. The matchmaker agreed to prepare for the engagement this morning.
Lin Wei thought that she would never meet Nie Pan again in her life, but she didn't expect such a dramatic change in just two days. Although Lin Wei has no ambition for the position of manager of Chunxiao Company, she is thinking that if she is a manager for a few days, she can at least get a few thousand yuan, and at least repay the 3,000 yuan owed to her father, so that her father should not be forced to marry someone for the time being, so she hesitated on the phone. In the end, he finally agreed to Nie Pan's request.
Lin Wei originally wanted to sneak out of the house while her father was not paying attention, and then took a bus to Donggang. After seeing Nie Pan, she first borrowed 3,000 yuan from him to mail it to her father's home, so that at least she would not make her father angry and affect her family because of her escape from marriage. Unexpectedly, she didn't expect a whole day's work. Fu Lin's father locked the yard early and waited for the man to give the bride price.
However, Nie Pan said that he would pick himself up after a while, but Lin Wei was not afraid. Lin's father has been forcing Lin Wei to put on makeup and change into new clothes all morning. Lin Wei also changed into the new clothes she bought a few days ago.
Looking in the mirror, Lin Wei was quite satisfied with her new image. The pure cotton white T-shirt, black plaid trousers, and Lin Wei's short shoulder-length hair that she just cut yesterday afternoon actually looked more pure and humane.
Lin Wei's hair was originally cut to make herself forget the past. Who knew that she didn't want to have a style and sharp hairstyle. With Lin Wei's bright black and white eyes, she was more full of youthful vitality!
At ten o'clock in the morning, there was a clapping sound of the door. It was a fat matchmaker from the same village. According to the generation, Lin Wei should call her second aunt, followed by the relative of the man's own family, and the height has just reached 1.6 meters. She is already 27 years old. She still has a young bean on her face, and her eyes are as if she has been scratched by sugarcane skin. The man in the crack.
As soon as she entered the door, the fat matchmaker went straight to the topic: "His uncle, let's get straight to the point today. Xiao Han's family is willing to pay a betrothal gift of 30,000 yuan. If you agree, let's sign an agreement today and let Xiao Han's family hold a banquet later. Let's make a deal!"
Lin's father held a low-quality cigarette in his mouth and frowned and said, "I said her second aunt, can the price rise again? Our Xiaowei is still Huanghua's big daughter. Besides, this son-in-law is also a little bit of a girl's mind. It's a little higher, more or less!"
"Oh, hey... His uncle, go to the neighboring village and ask, who has ever paid 30,000 yuan for free money? That is to say, Xiao Han's parents are generous, so they didn't bargain for you. Uncle, you can't sit on the ground and set the price!" The fat aunt moved her thick lips and said that although her lips looked as thick as a part of a sow, they were still quite sharp when she spoke!
"Can't you really add it again?"
Father Lin frowned and said, with a little unwillingness in his eyes. In his heart, he also felt that 30,000 yuan to put his daughter who looked like a flower on this pile of cow dung, but he was already jumping over the wall, waiting to get some capital. The more than 20,000 yuan accumulated this year was put on the neighboring village. When he went to the stolen casino, Lin's father was confident that although he had lost money, he had accumulated experience. If he had another tens of thousands of yuan of capital, he would definitely be able to turn over the capital and make a lot of money. This is also the reason why he forced his daughter to marry without conscience.
The fat matchmaker hasn't spoken yet, and the 1.6-meter-tall "Korean acne" said first: "Father-in-law, if you are in a hurry to use money, I think it's better. Why don't we make the betrothal and wedding gifts together today, and add another 20,000 yuan to our family. Today, our family will have a banquet, and I will bring it tomorrow. I took Xiaowei to the County Civil Affairs Bureau to apply for a marriage certificate, and I will marry Xiaowei the day after tomorrow!"
Although Han acne is not high, there are a lot of heart eyes, otherwise he would not be so short, and he would not be pressed by the heart. Moreover, he works in government units, and his heart is also relatively lively. Even the fat aunt, who is often a matchmaker, praises the young man for his cleverness and good heart!
Lin's father also secretly cursed this guy's thief in his heart, but under the pressure of 50,000 yuan, he was still greedy. He gritted his teeth and patted his thighs hard: "Yes, that's it. Give me the 30,000 yuan you brought first, and you can go home to get the money!"
"That's easy to say!"
Thinking of Lin Wei's beautiful appearance, although it can't be said to be charming, it is absolutely second to none in these ten miles and eight townships. I spent 50,000 yuan to buy her back. No matter how I calculate it, I think it is a cost-effective deal. In the future, I can greatly improve the varieties of the descendants of the old Han family and hurriedly put the briefcase. Open the zipper and prepare some money.
"I'm not engaged today. I regret it!"
Lin Wei saw that the situation was critical. At present, Nie Pan had not yet arrived. In a hurry, she ran out of the house to protest. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, Lin Wei still did not want to sell her name to this 1.6-meter acne face, even if she nominally did his fiancee for a few seconds!
"Hey, how do you say that? What do you think his uncle will do about this? The fat aunt's face immediately pulled down.
"Hey hey... Xiao Wei, I really like you. Although I'm a little sorry for you, I promise I will treat you well in the future." Han acne tried his best to smile with Lin Wei.
"I said, this marriage is out of the way. Please come back!" Lin Wei made a gesture to see the guests off outside the door with a frosty face.
"Are you really uncertain?" Han acne asked tentatively.
"I'm not sure. Now this society is a society under the rule of law, and it should not be as forced to marry as in the feudal period, right? Besides, you also work in a government unit. I think the legal awareness should be stronger than anyone else. I regret it. You go!" Lin Wei stretched out her hand and brushed her short shoulder-length hair, and refused solemnly.
"His uncle, how did this happen? Aren't you kidding me? I just agreed last night. The Han family has prepared everything. Relatives and friends are waiting for the wedding wine. Do you regret it when you say it? You can't even be a girl's master of feelings. Ouch... It's a shame to spread it out!"
The fat matchmaker began to use a three-inch tongue to provoke Song's father's anger, and then added, "This is 50,000 yuan. After this village, there will be no store. With such a good condition as Xiao Han, it is difficult for you to find it even with a lantern!"
I don't know whether it was angered by the sarcasm of the fat matchmaker, or was moved by the 50,000 yuan. Lin's father was furious and raised his hand and slapped Lin Wei: "Bad girl, get back to the house. There is no place for you to talk here. I give birth to you, and I'll have the final say."
"You..." Lin Wei was slapped on the face by her father, with pain in her heart. She covered her face and sobbed, looking at her biological father. She wanted to hate but didn't know how to hate!
"That's right, his uncle is still manly. Go back to the house and get paper and pen, and let's sign an agreement." The fat matchmaker said with a needle.
At this moment, a crisp car horn sound was remembered outside the yard. He came out of the car with a burly and handsome appearance, dressed in casual clothes. He went to the door and shouted, "Hey, is this Lin Wei's home?"
