Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

Chapter 300: Marrying the Mountain God 22

"Well, did she agree to move out?"

The village chief made a sullen face and nodded slightly, "Shi Tou and Zhu Zhu will go to Da Shan's house to help clean up first. When everything is done, she will move out!"

The village head's wife also had a long face. Those two guys didn't know how to restrain themselves. But when she thought that the vixen would soon move out of her house, she had to endure it.

"Aunt Hongyun, is Tang Lan'er going back to her own home?" Gu Li asked.

"Well, it's not a good thing for you to live in my house all the time." The two sons tried every means to run to the backyard all day long, and the eldest son's wife realized that something was wrong.

"She is about to give birth, we can't let her live here----" The village chief felt a little reluctant, because the child in Tang Lan'er's belly was Qi Dashan's last bloodline.

The village head's wife was angry, "Just shut up, do you want a good reputation or do you want this family to break up?"

The village chief sighed and called Gu Li and her husband to follow him into the house.

"Gu Li, I've been thinking over and over what your second uncle said last night. Do you want to consider marrying the Mountain God? After all, Yun Shen may never come back-----"

These words were said in front of Lian's mother, but they also proved the integrity of the village chief.

Lian's mother was not angry at all. After all, she knew that Gu Li had already consummated her marriage with Yun Shen, and Gu Li was determined to take her family's surname.

"Uncle Village Chief, what did my second uncle say?"

"He just talked about the marriage exchange. But I think it's best for you to seize your own opportunity."

The village chief said, "I've heard from the older generation that as long as the villagers down the mountain keep offering incense, the mountain god will live forever. Doesn't that mean he will live a hundred years and become an immortal? Little girl, aren't you tempted?"

Gu Li was not moved, she was just trembling with fear.

Everything in this world has a price tag in advance. If you want to get something, you must pay the corresponding price.

Do you really think that the mountain god would allow a mortal to share incense and offerings with him as a way of repaying his kindness?

No, the conspiracy behind this was not something a mere mortal like her could bear.

"But if the mountain god can't find a wife, will it be bad for us?" This is the issue that the village chief is most worried about.

He didn't care who became the mountain god's wife, but he was worried that the mountain god would be angry with the villagers who had lived here for generations because of Gu Li's resistance to marriage.

Gu Li thought it was impossible. If the mountain god could harm mortals, then was he still a god?

But Gu Li really couldn't be sure whether the big black snake would become ferocious and do something to vent its anger on others.

"Uncle village chief, I know what's going on and I won't let the villagers get into trouble."

Gu Li had thought about this question on the way back from town.

Gu Jiande's family was like a dog-skin plaster, and it was not a good thing for them to always harass her. She felt uncomfortable being targeted by that family.

Most importantly, it delayed her from finding evidence for Lian Yunshen.

The Gu family wants to step on her to climb up, which is not impossible, but they must pay the price!

Others don’t know, but Gu Li knows that the mountain god doesn’t necessarily want her. The big black snake only chose her because of the karmic bond between them.

All the black snake wanted was a wife who could bear him children.

"Village chief, when my second uncle comes again, I will agree to his proposal of marriage exchange, but all the betrothal gifts sent by the mountain god must belong to me!"

"This----" This was not something he, as the village chief, could agree to.

Gu Li said, "I agree to give up the marriage, and it is reasonable for me to accept some benefits, don't you think so, village chief? As for the gifts sent, I don't want any of them. I will donate them all to the village and let the village chief arrange them. When the mountain god gets married, the betrothal gifts will definitely not be small. By then, we can build a school or repair the road. In addition, it is time to renovate our village's ancestral hall----"

The village chief's eyes lit up again and again, "Yun Shen family, you, are you telling the truth?"

Gu Li held the hand that Lian's mother was holding and nodded to the village chief.

"Have you thought about it?"

"Yes. I won't take a cent. I just hope the village chief can protect us from being bullied!"

The village chief coughed and said, "Of course, even if there were no such thing, as the head of the village, I would not let irrelevant people bully you."

After coming out of the village chief's house, Lian's mother, with tears in her eyes, followed Gu Li like a little wife.

Gu Li sighed, "Mom, don't cry."

"Those, those should have been yours."

"Ill-gotten gains cannot be kept. Besides, my stepfather and stepmother are such easy-going people. Only by asking the village to step in can we get those things."

"But, but you can't donate all of it to the village!"

"Mom! If Brother Yun Shen can come out, what I did can offset his ruined reputation and allow him to continue studying without being criticized." Gu Li patted Lian's mother's back. "If I can't rescue Brother Yun Shen, mother and I will have to live here for the rest of our lives. It's right to build good relationships with the villagers."

"It is our Lian family who is sorry for you!"

"We are a family, so don't say anything strange, Mom!"

Lian's mother wiped her tears and said, "We must rescue Yun Shen and let him repay your kindness for his whole life!"

The corner of Gu Li's mouth twitched. She seemed to be unable to bear to hear the words "repay a favor".

"Hey, we should have gone to see Dashan's wife again." He went there several times but didn't get any useful questions out of him, which made his mother anxious.

"No rush, let's wait until she moves back, then we'll go and ask!" It's always inconvenient to live in the village chief's house.

Fortunately, Tang Laner can move out today.

"Mom, let's go back and eat something first. My stomach is empty and my head is empty too. I can't think of any ideas at all!"

Lian's mother was crying and laughing, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law supported each other and returned home in the warm sunlight.

What Gu Li didn't know was that just as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left, Gu Jiande came to the village chief's house.

Gu Jiande came alone this time. Fang's belly is getting bigger and she had a miscarriage after the noise she made yesterday. Now she is lying in bed and can't get up.

Gu Jixia also stayed at home to take care of her mother.

Gu Jiazu did not show up during the whole process and just waited for news at home.

After being repeatedly disturbed by Gu Li, if this matter is to be accomplished now, the approval of the village chief is still needed.

To Gu Jiande's surprise, the village chief actually agreed with his idea.

"What? She wants the entire betrothal gift that the Mountain God gave to my family? How can this be possible?"

The village chief was as still as a mountain. "You should know that this marriage originally belonged to Gu Li. If Gu Li didn't marry the boy from the Lian family, then Gu Li would be marrying the mountain god. What would your stepdaughter have to do with it?"

"But, no matter which daughter I marry, the betrothal gift should belong to my family!" How could he give away something that should belong to him?

The village chief was almost convinced by him, and hurriedly tried to make amends: "Isn't Gu Li married now? If she wants the mountain god to repay her kindness with gold and silver, you won't even be able to get the title of the mountain god's father-in-law!"
