Chapter 463: What's Your Plan in Your Heart?

Today's matter was truly too thorny; after several village cadres discussed it in the next room, they called Liu Chuxue over.

The Party Secretary said with an apologetic expression, "Chuxue girl, what is your plan in your heart?"

Liu Chuxue had already heard the entire discussion: "Party Secretary Grandpa, I want to hear your opinion first."

The Party Secretary raised his hand and wiped his face: "If we can avoid going public, let's avoid it; after all, this is not a glorious matter. However, punishment is definitely necessary to prevent others from following suit."

As several village cadres appeared, Liu Shanliang and Ge Xiulan rushed over: "Third Uncle."

The Party Secretary raised his hand to stop the couple from approaching: "Today's matter was seen by so many people; there are only two ways to handle it: one is marriage, and the second is to handle it through public authorities."

Before the couple could reply, a voice sounded from behind: "If we don't go public, I will marry Ding Zhiqing."

Hearing this, Ding Surong was about to object, but Liu Hearing Liu Jiandong leaned close to her and said, "Unless your family can help you return to Huicheng immediately, marriage is the best choice."

The words that had reached Ding Surong's throat were swallowed back; after a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, I agree, but I have a condition."

Liu Hearing Liu Jiandong's heart beat faster involuntarily; it really happened: "Speak."

Ding Surong looked at Liu's father and mother, who were negotiating with the village cadres: "Once I enter the door, we will split the household."

Ge Xiulan, who had just walked over, heard this clearly and was furious: "You little vixen! You haven't even entered our Liu family door yet, and you're already putting on airs. Trying to instigate my Dongzi to split the household—how dare you have such a big face?"

As she spoke, she tried to make a move but was stopped by Liu Shanliang: "Don't you see what time it is? What are you making a fuss about?"

Seeing his own family in this state, Liu Hearing Liu Jiandong's brow twitched involuntarily; fearing any uncontrollable factors might appear again, he said to Ding Surong, "Fine, I promise this matter."

Ge Xiulan stared angrily at Liu Hearing Liu Jiandong, raised her finger pointing at him, and said with a trembling voice: "You, you, you unfilial thing."

Liu Hearing Liu Jiandong took a few quick steps, reached out and grabbed his own mother's finger that was pointing at him, and said in a low voice: "Mom, given the family's reputation right now, finding a daughter-in-law like Ding Zhiqing is like burning high incense for good fortune; let alone the fact that marriage is most beneficial to us in today's situation."

Ge Xiulan also realized it now; after today's incident, if her son didn't marry, he would be sent to the Public Security Bureau, and his whole life would be ruined. She quickly analyzed the pros and cons in her mind: "Fine, I won't interfere; handle your own affairs yourself."

Seeing them agree, the Party Secretary immediately turned to Liu Quanwen on the other side: "What about you? Marriage or public authorities?"

Thinking of the consequences, Liu Quanwen gritted his teeth in grievance and agreed on behalf of his daughter: "Fine, we agree to marry, but I also have conditions: either bring a matchmaker to propose with a betrothal gift of one hundred plus one bicycle, or you will become a matrilocal son-in-law in our Liu family."

Cheng Laizi didn't expect the Liu family to actually agree; thinking of what had happened, his own older brother and sister-in-law hadn't even come, let alone pay the betrothal gift or buy big items for him. Enduring the pain in his body, he said: "I will become a matrilocal son-in-law."

Liu Shuqin shook her head while crying: "I don't agree; I want to sue him."

The Party Secretary glared at her: "If you hadn't harbored that harmful intention, there wouldn't be today's consequences. You several are grasshoppers on the same rope; think carefully."

Hearing these words, Liu Shuqian suddenly deflated.

She threw herself into Peng Ailan's arms and broke down in a huge cry.

Everyone watching this scene thought in unison: "Truly, self-inflicted suffering is inescapable."

Seeing them agree, the Party Secretary continued: "Since you chose not to report to public authorities, let's talk about compensation."

Everyone in the room looked at the Party Secretary together; Peng Ailan spoke first: "Compensation? What compensation? Compensating whom?"
