Zhan Lingfeng could tell that today’s events were a significant blow to Li Xiuli. Although her father had placed her in a good family, the decision made without consulting her must have hurt her feelings.
When he wanted to say something, Zhan Lingfeng ultimately held back and handed 10,000 yuan to the village chief, saying, "Uncle Zhou, here is 10,000 yuan. Please distribute some to those who were injured today, and use the rest to help me organize a feast. Get some meat and dishes so everyone can enjoy a good meal."
Zhou Guicai smiled broadly and replied, "Sure! Don’t worry, it’s been a long time since our village has been this lively. I will make sure it’s done well."
After speaking, Zhou Guicai began loudly instructing everyone to prepare for the event.
When Zhan Lingfeng returned home, Huang Xiaocui pulled the two of them into the inner room.
After seating them, Huang Xiaocui looked at Li Xiuli and said, "Son-in-law, don’t blame your father. Everyone knows your family’s situation; he is under a lot of pressure. If this continues, your family will only face starvation."
"Mom, I understand."
Biting her lip, Li Xiuli hesitated for a moment before using that term.
As she spoke, she quickly glanced at Zhan Lingfeng and then her face turned red.
"It’s good that you can think this way. Our family used to be poor, but as you know, ever since Zhan started his business, our situation has improved. Being Zhan's woman is not a bad thing for you."
"I know."
Li Xiuli's voice was very soft.
It was clear that she had emerged from her confusion and seemed much more spirited now.
Seeing this change in her, Zhan Lingfeng felt happy in his heart. He was genuinely worried that this girl, due to this matter, would give up on herself.
"Son-in-law, I need to clarify some things first. According to the village rules, after the banquet, you will be a woman of our Warrior Family. From then on, you will be Xu's woman. You won't need to obtain any marriage certificate; the recognition from the village is more valid than any certificate. In the village, you are Xu's woman and are expected to bear him children. Outside, if you both agree, you can get a marriage certificate. If not, then when Xu gets involved with someone else, the village will still recognize you as my Warrior Family's daughter-in-law."
Zhan Lingfeng scratched his head; this explanation was quite convoluted.
What Zhan Lingfeng didn't expect was Li Xiuli saying, "Mom, I already knew about this. You don't need to explain; I'm clear that I belong to your Warrior Family. As long as the Warrior Family doesn't drive me away, I will always be a member of the Warrior Family!"
Zhan Lingfeng stared blankly at Li Xiuli. He realized he really couldn't understand the women in this village.
Huang Xiaocui said, "Actually, it's great that you think this way. As long as you're willing to learn, our Warrior Family will support your education. It doesn't matter what level you want to reach; Xu won't have any objections either. I promise you, if you finish college and find a new relationship, you can request to end this arrangement at any time. Likewise, our Warrior Family and Xu won't oppose it."
Did they even ask for my opinion?
Zhan Lingfeng felt frustrated; it seemed that his opinion was never sought in this matter.
"Mom, don't worry. I am a woman of the Warrior Family for life!"
Seeing how well Huang Xiaocui treated her, some of Li Xiuli's reluctance had long since dissipated. On her way here, she had already come to terms with it. For her, this outcome was actually the best; hadn't she secretly fantasized about being with Zhan Lingfeng?
"Xu, your son-in-law is a good kid; I've always liked her. Now that she can become your woman, it's also your blessing. You should cherish her; you're family now, so take care of her more in the future."
With a smile on her face after speaking, Huang Xiaocui walked out.
Both of them stayed here, and Li Xiuli's ears turned red.
Zhan Lingfeng also felt somewhat awkward. Although he was lecherous, he had never experienced such a situation.
After hesitating for a while, Zhan Lingfeng said, "Son-in-law, I didn't expect it to be like this. If you are unwilling, we can leave it at that for now. In the future, you have the right to live your own life. I will not interfere and promise not to do anything with you if you don't want it."
Biting her lip, Li Xiuli suddenly looked up at Zhan Lingfeng and asked, "Zhan Lingfeng, tell me the truth, have you ever liked me?"
Looking into Li Xiuli's bright eyes, Zhan Lingfeng smiled and said, "You're so beautiful; many people like you, and of course I do too."
Hearing this, Li Xiuli asked again, "Are you really willing to marry me?"
"Of course."
"Then it's settled; from now on, I am your woman!"
When Li Xiuli said this, it was as if she had struck a chord, and she felt a bit weak all over.
Then Li Xiuli looked at Zhan Lingfeng and said, "Actually, I know that I was bought by you for sixteen thousand yuan. Don't worry; I know my place and what I should do. I will definitely not interfere with your private life."
"What are you talking about? Don't worry; the most important thing for you right now is to study. I support you in this."
Zhan Lingfeng had always been straightforward about matters concerning women. He had never dated anyone in Wind Heaven Continent. The woman he liked who betrayed him was only willing to be his because he was strong enough.
So, now Zhan Lingfeng really didn't know what to do.
"Just relax a bit, everything will be fine."
Zhan Lingfeng also offered some words of comfort.
Coming out of the house, Zhan Lingfeng swayed; this situation was truly beyond his expectations. He had only intended to help the weak, but he didn't expect to bring a woman back.
After stepping outside, Zhan Lingfeng saw the village chief directing the situation. Almost everyone in the village had shown up, many were moving tables and chairs, and everyone was voluntarily contributing.
Now, the large yard in front of Zhan Lingfeng's house was filled with tables and bowls.
At this time, Li Shitou and his son also arrived, both with smiles on their faces, busy greeting the villagers.
What on earth is going on!
Zhan Lingfeng was at a loss for words.
This time, Huang Xiaocui was also enthusiastic, bringing out all the food from her home.
Uncle Zhou even purchased a lot of wild game from the villagers' homes. Some skilled people in the village became quite popular as everyone rushed to start fires and cook meals, creating a bustling scene.
