Chapter 385 Xiao Lingyu was Forced

Translator: Lonelytree

Suddenly, there was a marriage rush at Taoyuan Village. Basically, everyone was rushing Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao to get married.

For such a long time, Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu were stuck together, but there was no news of them getting married.

‘This was an era of open love, but the rural people were still more conservative.

‘This single couple often stuck together. As time passed, there would be some gossip no matter what.

Gong Tianhao’s feelings for Xiao Lingyu were obvious. On the other hand, Xiao Lingyu was indifferent to him.

Naturally, some people would discuss in private that Xiao Lingyu was being a little too pretentious.

However, the members of the Xiao Family thought the same way.

Gong Tianhao treated Xiao Lingyu very well, but Xiao Lingyu’s attitude was neither warm nor cold. If she didn’t like him, she should reject him; if she liked him, they should get together. However, Xiao Lingyu only strung him along,

But the Xiao Family was sensible. This was a matter between the two young people. It appeared like the two were willing in their posts anyway.

Gong Tianhao didn’t have any objection. He wasn’t discouraged.

Sometimes, even the Xiao Family would grumble among themselves that something wasn’t right. But they couldn’t tell what was wrong.

Of course, they never expected the child in Xiao Lingyu’s stomach was Gong Tianhao’s.

If they knew, it might be another situation.

When Mother Xiao heard the villagers say that the single women in the village, even those who had been divorced, were targeting her future son-in-law, her heart was blocked, and she needed to vent.

“Mom, are you back?” Xiao Lingyu was sitting in the yard reading when she saw Mother Xiao come back with a hoe.

But then she realized that something was wrong with Mother Xiao’s expression.

She frowned slightly and asked, “Mom, what happened to you?”

Mother Xiao looked around and asked, “Yu’Er, where’s Tianhao?”

Xiao Lingyu said, “He said he had something to do. Mom, are you looking for him?”

Mother Xiao put down her hoe and sat next to Xiao Lingyu. Her eyes flashed as she looked at her ruddy daughter, who had gotten a little chubby.

‘Then, she said, “Yu’Er, do you know what | heard outside?”

Xiao Lingyu asked curiously, “Mom, don’t keep me in suspense. Just tell me what you heard.”

‘The village gossip wouldn’t reach Xiao Lingyu. No one dared to talk to her about it. It was because Gong ‘Tianhao was always by Xiao Lingyu’s side.

Gong Tianhao would only restrain his fierce aura around the Xiao Family. He didn’t do so around the villagers. Therefore, the villagers always felt terrified around Gong ‘Tianhao. They didn’t dare to say anything. Some of them even trembled.

Xiao Lingyu was rarely alone. Naturally, these villagers could not speak much in front of Xiao Lingyu.

Mother Xiao stared at her daughter and said, “I heard the villagers say that many of the village’s single ladies have been staring at Tianhao.”

Xiao Lingyu was stunned for a moment before she burst out laughing.

She covered her mouth and laughed, “Mom, Tianhao is not gold. Why would the girls be staring at him?”

Mother Xiao did not laugh. Instead, she said seriously, “Tianhao is not gold, but he has s

hining gold on him.”

As she said this, she sighed and said very seriously,

“Yu’Er, you should know very well that ‘Tianhao is a rare good man, Putting aside how much money he has, just his handsome appearan

lone can move those little gi

“Moreover, his sincerity to you is all obvious. That touches the girls’ hearts.

Let me ask you, which woman wouldn’t want to marry a good man like that?”

Hearing this, Xiao Lingyu roughly knew what Mama Xiao meant. But she still asked, “Mom, what are you trying to say?

Mother Xiao’s sharp eyes stared at Xiao Lingyu. ‘This time, she was even more serious.

She asked, “So, I want to ask you, how do you feel about Gong ‘Tianhao? You have to give me a definite answer today.”

Hearing her mother’s question, Xiao Lingyu panicked.

A look of panic flashed across her eyes. Then, she smiled at her mother, “Mom, why are you being so serious?”

“Because there is a need to!” Her mother shouted sternly, “Don’t be cheeky in front of me. lam asking you seriously now.”

“Mom!” Xiao Lingyu moaned, her tone full of unwillingness.

“Stop wasting my time!” Mother Xiao warned.

Xiao Lingyu rubbed her hands and pursed her lips tightly, unwilling to say anything more. She was really stubborn.

A mother knows her daughter well.

When Mother Xiao saw Xiao Lingyu like this, she knew that she was obviously trying to avoid this topic.

She wa:

angry that she stood up again. She wanted to pick up the broom and t

fh Xiao Lingyu a lesson.

But when she thought of Xiao Lingyu’s big belly, she paused.

Mother Xiao took a deep breath and said fiercely, “Yu’Er, I’ll be direct. ‘Tianhao is sincere to you and treats you well. This is something that everyone can see.

“He has done many things for you. If it were any other girl, she would be moved to tears.

“But you are so indifferent to him. You treat him no better than a stranger.”

“Mom, I do not!” Xiao Lingyu protested with some grievance, “L… lam very grateful to him.”

“Grateful?” Mother Xiao sneered, “How come | don’t see it? How are you grateful to him? By giving him money and food?

“Do you think he wants those things?

“Xiao Lingyu, you know very well what Gong ‘Tianhao wants. He wants a reciprocation of his feelings.

“Xiao Lingyu, is your heart made of stone? Yes, you were hurt by the wrong person in the past. You were betrayed. But Yu’Er, that’s already in the past. Those who hurt you also suffered retribution. We should move on, right?”

As she spoke, Mother Xiao’s voice became a little choked up, and her eyes turned red.

She didn’t want to say such harsh words to her daughter.

However, the gossip outside was a little… unpleasant.

‘These people didn’t dare to say those things openly, but Mother Xiao knew what they thought. She couldn’t stop the whole village from talking about her daughter.

Be

‘s, her daughter’s stomach was getting bigger. She wanted to give her grandchild an official status. No matter the origin, once Yu’Er married Gong ‘Tianhao, the child would be legitimate.

Her daughter was lucky to have met such a good man.

But her daughter’s attitude…

She was a little disappointed and wanted to knock her daughter’s head open.

This was a mother being worried sick about her daughter.

“You can’t just hide your feelings away. Yu’Er, it’s time to face them.” Mother Xiao said earnestly, “Tianhao is a good man. Most importantly, he treats you well! Any woman would be happy to have him as a husband.

“But you don’t seem to want him. What more do you want? What is it that you’re worried about?”

Mother Xiao kept mentioning Gong Tianhao’s good qualities.

Xiao Lingyu’s face turned red from the scolding. She opened her mouth slightly and wanted to say something, but she swallowed it back down.

Mother Xiao continued, “Yu’Er, if you really don’t like Gong ‘Tianhao, from today onwards, | won’t let Gong Tianhao take another step into our Xiao family, and | will definitely not let him get close to you. That way, we’ll clear things up.

“Otherwise, you two are stuck in this awkward relationship. You’re not friends, but you’re also not a couple. Do you know the kind of talk people have been saying because of thi:

‘s embarrassing!

“So, Yu’Er, tell me. What is your choice?

“Do you want a break-up or a relationship?
