Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 1260 - 1262: Freedom to Love

Upon hearing there was room for negotiation in this matter, the Village Chief beamed with joy, "Alright then, just wait for my word on this, I’ll be off now."

With that, the Village Chief headed outside, as Yang Ming and the others followed him out to see him off at the gate, "Take care, Village Chief." 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"Okay, no need to see me off, head back now." The Village Chief said as he walked away with his hands behind his back.

As the group watched the Village Chief walk away, they quickly returned to the yard. Once inside, their tense expressions immediately relaxed and they broke into sly grins.

Wang Xiangxiang excitedly remarked, "Is this a done deal?"

Xiaoxiao smiled subtly and said, "We won’t buy the land; the Village Chief will be more anxious than us and will help us think of a solution. We just have to wait. Let’s go inside."

Saying this, Xiaoxiao took Wang Xiangxiang inside.

Watching the two go inside, Chu Lian chuckled to himself. It seemed there was no need to worry about them. Seeing Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao acting in concert earlier, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop, the matter would likely be resolved in a matter of days.

Seeing Chu Lian lost in thought, Yang Ming reminded him, "Let’s go inside."

The two of them followed suit, entering the house where they saw Xiaoxiao and Wang Xiangxiang playing with the child.

Wang Xiangxiang gently held Little Liufu’s hand and spoke softly, "Little Liufu, do you remember me? I’m your aunt."

Grabbing onto Wang Xiangxiang’s finger, Little Liufu flipped over with all his might, his little arms propping him up, his head held high, with his mouth wide open in a very joyful expression.

This move surprised Wang Xiangxiang, "Little Liufu, you’re amazing! You learned to flip over in just a few days we haven’t seen you."

Xiaoxiao chuckled, "He’s known how to flip over for a while now. He’s showing off to you, waiting for your praise."

"Oh my, this little one is extraordinary!"

Seeing such a toddler, everyone’s hearts melted, and they adored him immensely.

After playing for a while, Wang Xiangxiang suggested, "Xiaoxiao, why don’t we arrange a child betrothal?"

"A child betrothal?" Everyone looked at Wang Xiangxiang in unison.

Unfazed by their surprise, Wang Xiangxiang continued, "Yang Xia and Wen Nuan are both pregnant. They’ve arranged a child betrothal for their families’ children. Why don’t we do the same? If I have a daughter, she’ll be betrothed to Little Liufu. Little Liufu is so smart, there’s no doubt he’ll be successful when he grows up."

"Wen Nuan is pregnant?" Xiaoxiao asked.

"Yes, Guo Feng mentioned it last time, about two months pregnant. Xiaoxiao, what do you think of my suggestion? Let the children have a child betrothal." Wang Xiangxiang persisted in asking.

Xiaoxiao felt a twitch at the corner of her mouth, and she responded flatly, "Not a good idea!"

Was this a rejection? Wang Xiangxiang didn’t expect Xiaoxiao to refuse and, puzzled, asked, "What’s wrong with a child betrothal? My future daughter certainly won’t be lacking."

"It’s not about being good or bad. I’m an advocate for free love. I won’t interfere in my son’s marriage. He has the right to pursue his true love."

Xiaoxiao’s words immediately made Wang Xiangxiang realize the inconsistency. They themselves were like that, how could they bind their children?

She quickly responded, "You’re right, no child betrothal then. My child should also pursue who they like, I won’t interfere."

Hearing these words, Yang Ming and Chu Lian were touched internally and secretly resolved not to interfere in their children’s marital affairs.
