Chapter 12: Chapter 012 No One to Help

```

——————

"Sigh, from what you've said, she is indeed a pitiable girl. Our entire Qingshan Team has known her family's situation for over a decade now. All because San Ni doesn't know how to flatter, she never won her parents' affection...

She is truly unfortunate, having to work from a young age. Before she even reached ten, she could work as an adult laborer. If it wasn't for her being too young, your Uncle would have actually recorded her as an adult worker that year! Such a fine girl, yet the Zhang Zhiguo household is truly heartless!

Tsks, that Lin Aiguo is known throughout our Qingshan Team for being slovenly and lazy, and even his sister isn't any good, all gaudy without a serious demeanor! I never thought their family would be interested in swapping marriages with such people..."

Zhou Xiuhua's mind was a foggy mess, absentmindedly rambling, not even sure what she was saying herself, clearly because of Zhang Shanni's abrupt arrival, which had given her quite a shock.

"Mom, what do you think about this?" Xie Jingchen glanced at his own mother speaking incoherently, his expression seemingly dissatisfied but not entirely so, prompting a puzzled voice to question.

"Mom never said she wasn't good; she's a good person, but she has no family of her own! If something happens to you, there won't be anyone to lend a helping hand!"

Zhou Xiuhua held no ill feelings towards Zhang Shanni and even before the present moment, thought that this girl was very capable, a good choice for a daughter-in-law.

But having experienced her rash act of attempting suicide by jumping into the water, allowing her to enter the Xie Family's door would stir up all kinds of gossip outside!

After all, a marriage had been discussed previously, and then there was the suicide attempt by drowning...

What mattered most was seeing the scratch marks on her son's neck, which made her uneasy, and it showed on her face. Xie Jingchen was observant of people's feelings and, seeing his mother repeatedly glance at his neck while she spoke, what else was there to misunderstand?

He didn't care one bit about this minor injury, but he still needed to coddle his own mother.

"Mom, don't worry about this little scratch, it's nothing. If I hadn't stopped her, this injury would have been on Ni's face, and as a man, I don't care about these minor external injuries. It'll heal in two days at most.

Besides, Mom, what are you worrying about? Even if it weren't Ni, the wife I take is for me alone; having her own family doesn't necessarily mean they're good. Don't you forget the annoying troubles with the family of my eldest sister-in-law and younger siblings!"

Xie Jingchen whispered to his mother's ear, truly despising his younger sibling's in-laws. Therefore, when he blurted out that he wanted to marry Zhang Shanni, he instinctively felt the need to cut off any chance for the Zhang Family to come knocking, even if it meant being the villain, he had to take precautions!

A clear trace of displeasure flitted across Zhou Xiuhua's dark complexion. Thinking of Zhang Shanni as one of the top farm workers in the team, and looking at the large gold ring on her son's hand, and her son's skewed behavior, she finally nodded in agreement:

"Alright, I'll talk to your father about this later. How do you plan to arrange the wedding banquet?"

Zhou Xiuhua was decisive. Seeing her son appearing quite satisfied with the little girl Zhang Shanni, she didn't want to play the bad guy, especially since her son had already brought the girl home, meaning there was no turning back in the matter.

Moreover, since her son had already dealt with the girl's problematic family in one fell swoop, she had even less to hesitate about.

Without hesitation, a swift decision was necessary; you can't have a girl chilling at home without proper status. This way, neither Zhang Shanni nor her own son would have an undamaged reputation.

"Mom, you make the decision. Just follow what we did for my younger brother's wedding. I've taken leave for this period and won't be back for the New Year, so please arrange as best as you can. Tomorrow, I will take Ni straight to the town to get the marriage certificate, and the day after tomorrow, no, let's hold the feast the day after that. There's not enough time and sister won't be able to make it back."
