Kissed and Seduced By the Most Rough Man in the Village

"It's just the little educated youth fell into the river, and I saved her. Then I want to marry her," Jiang Yexun said casually.

Thinking about the young girl snuggled in his arms, looking pitiful, his cold and hard expression couldn't help but soften slightly.

Seeing this tender expression on his face, Aunt Guo felt even more panicked. She smacked his back hard.

"You're courting death! How could I have given birth to such a heartless son like you? I knew you were interested in that girl, Educated Youth Su, but you seemed to have some restraint and didn't do anything to force her. I never suspected you had such intentions. I thought you would eventually calm down and realize that you weren't good enough for her. But now, you've gone so far as to create such a scandal, forcing Educated Youth Su to marry you."

"I didn’t!" Jiang Yexun's expression turned cold again.

Aunt Guo's anger froze for a moment. She hesitated, then asked cautiously, "Really, it wasn't you?"

"No," Jiang Yexun's tone became even more serious.

Aunt Guo breathed a sigh of relief. "I'm sorry, son. I shouldn't have thought of you like that. But you're always scheming, and your methods can be ruthless. I was afraid you might go down the wrong path."

"I can't bear to do that to her," Jiang Yexun shook his head. He liked the little educated youth, but he had never dared to think of using any improper means to obtain her. That would make him feel unworthy of even liking her. In his heart, she was as pure and beautiful as the moon over the mountains.

"Then why did you say you wanted to marry Educated Youth Su? She's not the type to agree to marry you because of this. I don't understand," Aunt Guo found it strange.

Maybe she was under some kind of spell.

Jiang Yexun thought to himself.

He had actually never thought about why Educated Youth Su suddenly agreed to marry him. But he had given her several opportunities and explicitly asked her. She had said she wanted to marry him. Regardless of whether it was because of some spell, he would never let her go now.

Aunt Guo saw that her son had fallen silent again and patted him on the back.

"Hey, speak up! Do you really think I'll take your side? If you think that because of this incident, you'll definitely be able to marry Educated Youth Su, you're wrong. You shouldn't do anything that would make Educated Youth Su uncomfortable. If she doesn't want to marry you, we'll have to figure out a way to deal with the gossip in the village. Educated Youth Su is sensitive, and if the people in the village start talking, she might feel really upset."

Although she said this, Aunt Guo was still quite worried. She didn't know how to deal with the gossip from the people in the village.

"I asked Educated Youth Su, and she agreed to marry me," Jiang Yexun replied, still kneading the dough.

He wanted to make some dumplings for Educated Youth Su, but there was no meat at home. So, he had to cook some vegetable dough soup for lunch to fill their stomachs.

"Mother, I need to go to the mountains tonight.”

Aunt Guo looked puzzled, but after glancing at the dough she immediately understood what he said.

"Educated Youth Su is thin and has suffered a lot today. She needs to eat some meat for nourishment."

But then she immediately glared at her own son and said, "Don't try to change the subject with me! How did you make Educated Youth Su agree to marry you? Did you deliberately use something to scare her, like rumors from people in the production team?"

Jiang Yexun knew that he couldn't avoid answering properly today; this meal wasn't going to be peaceful. So he put down the dough he was working on and said, "No, I just told her I liked her and wanted to marry her. I didn't have the courage to say it before, but I used this incident as an opportunity to ask her if she was willing to marry me. As long as she agrees, I'll listen to her about everything. I even told her that my mother is a very good mother-in-law and will definitely treat her even better than me. I promised her that when she married into our family, nobody would dare to mistreat her. Even if I have just one penny in my pocket, it will all belong to her. I'll do all the housework, and I won't let her do anything."

Jiang Yexun knew that Educated Youth Su was sensitive, so he didn't plan to let anyone know about the things she had done before. He also wanted to make it clear in advance to his mother how he would treat Educated Youth Su after marrying her, so there wouldn't be any conflicts like the other families in the production team where the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't get along.

At first, Aunt Guo was nodding in satisfaction, but when she saw her son sneakily looking at her, she immediately glared at him. "What? Do you think I would side with you, you little rascal? If you really manage to marry Educated Youth Su, it would be a miracle. I will definitely treat her like my own daughter."

"Well, you do spoil my sister," Jiang Yexun replied as if he'd just realized something. This way, even if Educated Youth Su gave birth to a daughter, his mother would still be happy, and he would be happy too.

"Well, of course! A daughter is tender and delicate, much better than a smelly little brat like you who can't even let out a fart for half a day," Aunt Guo said with a wry smile. In her heart, all her children were the same. Originally, her mother-in-law and her husband doted on their son, so she naturally favored her daughter more. But it wasn't too excessive; otherwise, there would be rifts between her children.

"Tell me, what exactly did you say to her? Did you really say all those nice things?" Aunt Guo still found it hard to believe. Her son was usually taciturn and never said anything nice.

"What I said doesn't matter. What's important is that Educated Youth Su is willing to marry me. From now on, she'll be your daughter-in-law, and no one should bully her," Jiang Yexun replied, revealing the pot of boiled eggs, adding two more spoons of brown sugar, thinking it wasn't enough, and adding another spoon.

"But didn't Xiaoxiao fall into the river? What's the use of boiling brown sugar eggs?" Aunt Guo asked curiously.

"Doctor Cui said that the little educated youth is a bit weak due to exhaustion and needs proper nourishment," Jiang Yexun said.

"Well, she does need proper nourishment. Just by looking at her, you can tell she's not suited for heavy labor. She's had a tough time during this period. Aren't you a strong young man? From now on, finish Xiaoxiao's chores first and then attend to your own," Aunt Guo said sternly.

Jiang Yexun nodded. Since Educated Youth Su had agreed to marry him, he would openly help her with her work. This was something he had dreamed of before.

But Aunt Guo furrowed her brow again. "But this way, won't the villagers gossip again?"
