Chapter Nineteenth: Who Gets to Decide on the Divorce

  I insist on updating twice a day, I should be able to ask for a collection with courage, crying...

  ============================

  "Who said I wanted to break off the engagement?"

  Lin Luoran retorted, and for a moment, Old Lady Li was taken aback.

  The villagers pointed and whispered, saying that Lins daughter had stolen someone elses graduate student and wouldnt let go, shameless. Lins father scowled and wanted to find a stick to beat those gossiping women, while Lins mother stared at her daughter with pleading eyes.

  Lin Luoran smoothed out her long hair that fell to her chest, and though she was standing calmly in place, the single men in the village couldnt help but stare at her with wide eyes.

  Mrs. Li was not quite reacting, how could this Lin family girl be like this and still not break off the engagement? Although she is not a rich city girls daughter, after all, its not a done deal until the duck is in hand, and according to Anping, this girl has made a fortune, so its not impossible to consider.

  At least swindle her out of all her money before dumping her, and Mrs. Li instantly made up her mind, while also being deeply proud of her sons charm!

  "Lin Yaotou, if you repent, the old lady can still make concessions and let Anping forgive you." Li Laos eyes narrowed, saying that she would forgive on behalf of others, but her attitude was still arrogant, as if her concession had given Lin Luo a great favor.

  Lins father couldnt help but put down the broom in his hand. A good girl doesnt marry a second husband, and if it were really possible to make peace with Li Anping, Lins father would still like to see it happen.

  Lins mother didnt know what had happened, but seeing Lao Taitais behavior, she only had one thought left in her mind - her daughter must have been wronged!

  Lins mother was trembling with anger, looking at her daughter with great concern, thinking that Lin Luoran and Li Anping had made up, but seeing the Li family being so arrogant now, she feared that there would be more suffering in the future.

  The villagers who were infatuated with Lin Luorans beauty all burst out laughing upon hearing Old Lady Lis words, "Old Lady Li, isnt it said that the young lady from the Lin family has hooked up with a big shot? Youre advising them to make amends, but your sons hat doesnt look good on him, hahaha!"

  Lin Luoran looked at Lao Taitais eyes which were dim and unclear, the villagers who were laughing and the Li family members who thought highly of themselves, were they performing an opera?

  "I certainly wont break off the engagement." Lin Luo Ran replied clearly to Old Lady Li, with another sentence "it wont be so easily broken off" left unspoken in her heart.

  Mrs. Li and her eldest daughter exchanged a glance, both of them seeing delight in each others eyes.

  As expected, Lins daughter is still as weak as before. I dont know how Anping said she had changed. Li Dajie licked her lips and said, "Hand over the bangle first, and Ill put in a good word for you in front of my little brother."

  Mrs. Li glared at the hoodlums with bulging eyes and cursed: "Theres nothing for you here, get out of here and go die!"

  Lin Luoran didnt bother with them at all, her eyes scanning the crowd, and sure enough, the village chief was hiding in the crowd watching the commotion for a long time. As an outsider, Lin Luoran didnt expect the village chief to take the initiative to stop Li Lao from making trouble, in her opinion, the fact that the village chief hadnt helped the Li family gang up on her family was already quite difficult, after all, the Li family village were all of the same surname, and blood is thicker than water.

  Lin Luoran suddenly thought of a way to get rid of Li Anpings family and smiled at Old Lady Li, saying: "Ive really made a fortune recently, now that Im back, I should repay you well, Mother."

  Mrs. Li didnt expect the matter to be so easily settled, and her slight doubts were all dispelled in front of the readily available red ticket. Where was there still any suspicion? The wrinkles on her face all relaxed into a smile. She was guessing how much money Lin Luoran had now, and how much would be suitable. Meanwhile, Lin Luoran nodded and smiled at the village chief:

  "Village Chief Li, I have some matters to discuss with you, can we take a step closer and talk?"

  The village head, Li, was smoking a dry tobacco pipe in the crowd. He knew about the affairs of the Li and Lin families. Not helping the Li family was already being kind to him. At this time, the young lady from the Lin family called him out in front of everyone, which was quite unappreciative.

  Li Village Chief reluctantly moved his feet, and the onlookers voluntarily gave way to him. From this, it can be seen that Li Village Chief has a certain status in the village. Lin Luo Ran was very satisfied with what he saw.

  "Village head, the Lin family is an outsider, and over the years, our village has taken good care of us. Luo Ran is just a young woman with limited abilities, but shes made some small fortune, so naturally she wants to show her gratitude."

  Lin Luo Ran smiled and looked at the village chief, everyone was amazed, this Lin family girl really saw the world in the city, how did she become so bold? The meaning of these words is to openly bribe the village chief, its ridiculous that Li Anpings family still stood by with a sour face, I guess they wont get a good deal.

  Anyone with eyes can see it, how can Village Chief Li not hear the implicit meaning in Lin Luos words? Unfortunately, the Heavenly Dynasty has been cracking down heavily recently, and even a village official like him knows that he cannot accept bribes in front of so many people. This Lin family girl is too clueless, doesnt she know to give gifts discreetly?

  "Lin, you think Im some kind of person who can be bribed? I, Li Weiguo, am not someone who can be bought off!" This young girl really doesnt understand the ways of the world, what a pity that she wasted such a large sum of money, serves her right to be cheated by the Lis.

  The village head was in pain, Lin Luos mind was clear and bright. She had a good guess about what the villagers were thinking, so she deliberately made a surprised expression: "Village Head Li, my daughter saw that the ancestral hall in the village is a bit old, and she wants to donate money to repair it. How can this be considered bribery?"

  As soon as Lin Luorans words fell, Li Village Chiefs eyes lit up, even more excited than when he thought Lin Luoran was going to bribe him!

  Its not that Li Weiguo is upright and honest, but the ancestral hall of Lijia Village, to put it bluntly, is the ancestral hall of the Li family, he is the orthodox main family of the old Li family.

  "How much are you prepared to pay?" Li Village Head was so excited that he even forgot to smoke his water pipe.

  Not to mention the village head, even the onlookers in the crowd began to discuss in hushed tones. Lis family still adheres to the old tradition of surname and family name concept deeply rooted in the village. This is also the reason why everyone knows that Li Anpings family has problems but no one stands up to speak out for justice.

  Its said that Lin Luoran is going to build an ancestral temple, and the descendants of the Li family feel like a big pie has fallen on their heads, and theyre still feeling dizzy.

  Lin Luo Ran smiled, looking around at the Li family villagers with different expressions. Lin Dad and Lin Mom were confused, while Old Lady Li, a shrewd and stingy rural old lady, looked at her with suspicion, seemingly having sensed that something was off.

  "Director Li, is one hundred thousand enough?"

  The moment he opened his mouth, it was 100,000. Lins daughter really got rich! Village Chief Li tapped the dry smoker on the bluestone in Lin Luorans courtyard twice. He wanted to take this 100,000 very much, but unexpected wealth is hard to handle, and he didnt know what requirements Lins daughter had.

  Lin Luoran saw the village chief deep in thought, and turned to Lao Li with a cold smile: "Lao Li, are you joking? Li Anping has hooked up with a rich familys daughter and disregarded the alliance between our two families. I can ignore that, and even consider the money spent on his education over the years as money thrown to feed dogs. You, a family without shame, dare to come to my doorstep to extort money. Do you think the Lin family is easy to bully?!"

  She gazed coldly at the indignant Li Dajie and several of Lis nephews who were about to take action, Li Laos face was purplish red, just about to scold this shameless prostitute, Lin Luoer looked down on her from a superior position:

  "Divorce? You dont want to compensate me and you also want me to divorce?"
