Chapter 15 : Marry me, little girl, are you going to cry?

His words were very serious, and for a moment, Old Lady Song and Song Zhiguo’s family were all stunned.  

But suddenly, Zhao Huili covered her face and started crying, while Song Zhiyong choked up, unable to speak for a moment.  

“Mom, do you all just want to force our family to death? If that’s the case, then let’s just live like this!”  

She didn’t want to be looked down upon by her future in-laws, but it was clear that the Song family was full of trouble. Forget it, this family was already rotten, so what was the point of maintaining a good appearance?  

As she spoke, she wiped her tears and turned to apologize to Shen Xiu’e. “I’m sorry, Xiu’e, our family must have made you laugh!”  

Shen Xiu’e also felt bad and quickly wiped her tears. “Alright, stop crying! In any case, the two children are ours. They have no objections, and we as parents have no objections so this marriage is settled! Let the two of them go get the marriage certificate tomorrow!”  

Zhao Huili nodded repeatedly.  

“Yes!”  

Song Shiwei stood behind Zhou Tingyue, feeling a little touched.  

Even though she had already heard Zhou Tingyue’s words once in the courtyard earlier, hearing him say them again in front of so many people, how could she not be moved?  

This time, Old Lady Song had completely broken her parents’ hearts. Looking at her mother’s red eyes, Song Shiwei’s determination grew even stronger.  

Her small face was pale, her eyes slightly red, like a little rabbit that had suffered great injustice.  

Zhou Tingyue couldn’t help but feel distressed.  

He reached out his large palm to hold her delicate, boneless hand, gently rubbing it in his palm.  

His handsome face was full of tenderness.  

He bent down and looked at her.  

“Weiwei, let’s go get the certificate today, and I’ll take you away tomorrow, okay?”  

His voice was soft and gentle, as if he was afraid that speaking too loudly might scare the fragile girl in front of him.  

Hearing his words, Song Shiwei quickly raised her head and looked at him steadily with her slightly red eyes. She pursed her lips and nodded.  

“Okay!”  

She really didn’t want to stay here for another day. Besides her terrible relatives, there was also the overwhelming sense of fate pressing down on her like a knife hanging above her head, one that could fall at any moment.  

But before she left, there was still one more thing she needed to do.  

Seeing the little girl’s agreement, Zhou Tingyue suddenly grinned.  

From now on, he would protect her and never let her suffer like this again!  

Even if Old Lady Song wanted to stir up trouble in the future, she would have to think twice because Song Shiwei was no longer just her granddaughter; she was now also the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family!  

So, regardless of how furious Old Lady Song and Song Zhiguo’s family were, Zhao Huili went straight to the street office to get a permit and immediately sent her daughter and son-in-law to obtain their marriage certificate!  

The marriage certificate of this era was just a piece of paper with a red stamp on it, without even a photo. However, holding it in her hands, Song Shiwei finally felt at peace.  

She was finally out of the plot!  

The heavy burden in her heart had finally lifted.  

Shen Xiu’e was so happy that she kept holding Song Shiwei’s hand and stuffed all the money and ration tickets she had prepared into her hands.  

“Weiwei, take all of this and buy whatever you want! I didn’t dare take them out earlier because I was afraid that your sarcastic grandmother and uncle’s family would snatch them away! Keep them for yourself, whether you leave them for your parents or take them to Qilian Island, it’s up to you! And tell your parents that our Zhou family doesn’t need them to prepare any dowry. The fact that you are marrying into our family is the best dowry we could ask for!”  

Song Shiwei looked at the thick pile of money and ration tickets in her hands and felt deeply comforted. Which family would allow the new bride to carry all the betrothal gifts by herself?  

She was truly blessed in this life to have such an open-minded mother-in-law!  

Zhou Runde also smiled and reassured her, “Our family doesn’t have so many rigid traditions. You and Tingyue should live a good life over there. Don’t worry about your parents, we will help take care of them for you!”  

Zhou Tingyue looked at his young wife’s reddening eyes, and his heart felt both painful and itchy, as if countless little kittens were scratching at him.  

He gently pinched her cheek and teased, “Marrying me, little girl are you going to cry?”  

Song Shiwei suddenly felt a little embarrassed and secretly pinched the soft flesh on his waist. “I am not!”  

Zhou Tingyue’s eyes darkened slightly.  

He grabbed her mischievous little hand and coaxed her softly, “Okay, okay, our little girl isn’t crying!”  

Seeing how affectionate the young couple was, Shen Xiu’e and Zhou Runde couldn’t help but smile.  

“Your father and I will wait in the car first. Tingyue, have a good talk with Weiwei, and don’t forget to buy tickets for tomorrow’s train!”  

Zhou Tingyue agreed. After the two left, he lowered his head and looked at the slightly flushed face of the little girl in front of him. He still felt as if he were dreaming.  

Does Zhou Tingyue really have a wife now?  

He was a little worried and couldn’t help but ask her, “Are you really ready to live on the island with me? The conditions there… are very tough, and there are four children to take care of.”  

Song Shiwei nodded eagerly. Going to the island was exactly what she wanted, she didn’t dare stay in Beijing any longer.  

“Of course I’m ready! I’ll tell my parents and pack my things when I get back!”  

The smile in Zhou Tingyue’s eyes deepened. “Alright, then I’ll come pick you up early tomorrow morning!”  

Song Shiwei nodded. The two talked for a while, and only after seeing her enter the house did Zhou Tingyue turn and leave.  

However, as soon as Song Shiwei stepped through the Song family’s gate, she was shocked by the scene in the courtyard.  

Her grandmother and aunt were clinging tightly to the television, refusing to let go! Her mother and sister were gripping the other side, trying to wrest it away!  

Meanwhile, several of her eldest uncle’s sons had already moved the betrothal gifts given by the Zhou family from the main room into Old Lady Song’s room!   

Song Shiwei stood frozen for a moment, but the coldness in her heart grew stronger and stronger.  

Zhao Huili, who was struggling over the TV, looked up and saw her daughter standing at the doorway, silently watching the scene with cold eyes. Her heart skipped a beat, and a deep pain surged from the bottom of her heart, filling her entire chest.  

Enough. She had had enough of this life!  

The Song family! Old Lady Song! Feng Chunmei! Song Zhiguo and his family were all the same, bullies!  

She suddenly let go.  

Feng Chunmei and Old Lady Song, who had been pulling against her, nearly fell to the ground. They crouched down in a panic, quickly checking if the TV in their arms was broken!  

Fortunately, they had held it tightly, so it didn’t fall. But Old Lady Song was furious!  

Pointing at Zhao Huili’s nose, she cursed, “You wretched woman! Why did you let go? What if the TV broke? You’re a wasteful fool! I don’t even know why Zhiyong married you in the first place! You blind idiot!”  

Zhao Huili suddenly laughed. She turned to look at Song Zhiyong, who was chasing after his elder brother’s children, trying to beat them. Her eyes were filled with coldness.  

“Song Zhiyong, did you hear what your mother just said?”  

Song Zhiyong’s footsteps suddenly stopped, and the expression on his face slowly darkened.  

“I heard it.”
