Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 453

Chapter 453: Chapter 453: Reported

Li Dongmei seemed to have made up her mind, "I also think he’s good, I want to live the life of city people, and I’ve accepted the idea of a second marriage."

Only then did Lin Jiayi speak, "What’s wrong with a second marriage? Some people are just too old-fashioned. In the city, people don’t just get married twice—third and even fourth marriages happen, and people fight to get married. Plus, city folks are educated. People say that educated people have higher quality, and they treat their wives well."

Li Dongmei’s cheeks flushed immediately, "I just feel that he’s really good, I’m just afraid that my mom won’t agree to the marriage..."

Lin Jiayi suddenly changed the topic, "Speaking of marriage, when I went to buy meat today, I saw a family in the village holding a wedding banquet. It was a staff member from the commune who married a girl from the village. I heard that the man’s family was not willing at first, but the woman was tactful. She got pregnant before anything much happened, making the man’s family have no choice but to agree, and they had to throw a big banquet."

"Ah, getting pregnant before marriage, she’d be drowned in spit!"

Li Dongmei completely forgot the previous topic, her eyes wide open in shock.

"Hey, let them talk, what does it matter if they say unpleasant things? Does it cost anyone a piece of flesh? On the contrary, the woman married the man and now has a husband who works as a staff member in the village. She’s set for life with plenty to eat and drink. If the man becomes successful and becomes an official, she’ll be a madame. Then, what can others say? Anything they say is just sour grapes."

Lin Jiayi finished speaking and looked outside at the darkening sky, "Oh no, I haven’t fed the chickens yet, and it’s getting dark."

Li Dongmei watched Lin Jiayi’s hurried figure, her mind filled with the saying about sour grapes.

......

Shortly after Lin Chuxia returned to the city, Zhang Guilan followed.

It wasn’t that Zhang Guilan insisted on following Lin Chuxia to the city; she had no choice.

That day, Qin Family Village’s vegetable truck was on time to deliver vegetables to Qin’s Restaurant. However, it was Qin Han who drove the truck, bringing with him Zhang Guilan.

By the time Lin Chuxia got the news, Qin Han had already brought Zhang Guilan and Qin Juan to the family quarters.

Zhang Guilan looked pale, whether from the journey or something else.

When she got off the truck, Qin Juan spoke up worriedly, "I told you to come to my place, it’s closer to the restaurant after all. Look at how pale you are, and you’re pregnant. What if something happens?"

Zhang Guilan had already spotted Lin Chuxia and waved at her. Lin Chuxia quickly walked up and took her hand.

Finally, Zhang Guilan spoke weakly, "I feel unsettled wherever I stay, but if I stay by my sister-in-law’s side, I can have peace of mind."

Although Lin Chuxia didn’t know what had happened, seeing Zhang Guilan’s condition, she quickly reassured, "Then stay at my place, stay as long as you want. Have you guys eaten? I’ll go and prepare something for you."

Zhang Guilan shook her head, "I can’t eat right now."

Qin Juan also said, "Xiaxia, you talk to them. I’ll go to the kitchen and prepare some food."

Qin Juan had stayed with Lin Chuxia for a while before, so she was familiar with the kitchen.

The guest room had been vacant since Qin Juan moved out, and Lin Chuxia didn’t want to ask Zhang Guilan too many questions—she settled her in the guest room to rest first.

Once everyone was settled, Lin Chuxia asked Qin Han, "What exactly happened?"

Qin Han’s face was filled with indignation. Without Zhang Guilan present, he did not hide the coldness in his eyes.

"We’ve been reported. The report was anonymous. I don’t know what they told the family planning office, but they found out our second child is a violation."

"How could this happen?"

Lin Chuxia’s voice involuntarily rose several notches.
