Chapter 356 Why Should You
In fact, Xiao Hua stood up to speak at the first opportunity because she was afraid that, for the sake of their son, her parents would agree to an arranged marriage swap.
However, she was held back by Jiang Mengyu. Because, you see, Jiang Mengyu felt that it would be better for Xiao Hua not to confront her parents and elder brother directly.
Xiao Zhu laughed angrily: "You donât agree? On what grounds do you not agree? What are you to my family that requires your agreement?"
Actually, under Tian Ruyiâs persuasion, he also began to feel that the arranged swap wasnât such a bad idea. He could marry Ru Yi, Tian Xianhua would marry his sister, and he would have a powerful backing in the future.
Tian Xianhua valued his sister and would surely heed her words. Just as he currently valued Ru Yi; whatever she said felt right to him.
"On what grounds? On the grounds that she calls me big sister!"
"Big sister?" The Xiao Family members all turned their gazes towards Xiao Hua.
Xiao Hua nodded decisively: "I have accepted her as my big sister, and when I mentioned borrowing money, it was with my big sisterâs consent. My big sister can make decisions for me."
The Xiao Familyâs parents were dumbfounded as they looked at Jiang Mengyu. This girl was even younger than their daughter, yet how did she become the big sister?
And how could she possibly have that much money, simply mentioning a sum of two hundred yuan?
Jiang Mengyu paid no attention to Xiao Huaâs parents and looked coldly at Xiao Zhu: "Since Xiao Hua has acknowledged me as her big sister, I must protect her. Nobody can bully her. Not to mention youâre just a brother; even if her parents were to bully her, that wouldnât be allowed!
I am protecting my little sister. As long as I am here, no one will be allowed to bully Xiao Hua!"
When she said this, her eyes were on the Xiao Familyâs parents.
Her stance was clear: if the Xiao Familyâs parents dared to marry Xiao Hua off to Tian Xianhua, she would make it her business to stop them.
Xiao Xiu and Xiao Xi, who had been sitting to the side like part of the backdrop, stared blankly at Jiang Mengyu: The big sisterâs big sister is so formidable, if only they had such a protective big sister themselves.
Jiang Mengyu turned to Xiao Zhu: "Other peopleâs brothers would protect their sisters, but you, instead of protecting your own sister, are ready to hand her over to a brutal man. I really doubt whether youâre even a man."
Xiao Zhu, accused of not being a man, became furious: "How am I not a man?"
"Would a man let his sister be ruined by a good-for-nothing hoodlum?"
Xiao Zhu was left speechless.
"Donât you know that Tian Xianhua is a hoodlum who does not engage in productive work and prefers ease to labor? Knowing that heâs a hoodlum and still agreeing to marry your sister to him, do you want to build your happiness on your sisterâs pain?"
"Iâ" Xiao Zhu wanted to say no, but Jiang Mengyu wouldnât let him speak.
"What âIâ... do you truly think that your sister marrying a hoodlum would be happy?
Your father knows that he is a ruthless man who messes with men and women alike, yet you still think of marrying your sister to him. Isnât that building your happiness on your sisterâs suffering?
As a brother, you canât even protect your sister, and you want her to sacrifice her lifetime of happiness for your sake; what kind of brother are you?"
Xiao Zhu couldnât lift his head under Jiang Mengyuâs admonishment, but he really wanted to say that he didnât wish to build his happiness on his sisterâs pain.
He simply wanted a strong support.
He shouted loudly: "Tian Xianhua treasures Xiao Hua; he has promised that as long as my sister marries him, he will correct his past mistakes. After marriage, everything at home would be decided by my sister."
In the mountains, a man is the God. Whatever a man says goes, and women do not have a say.
This Tian Xianhua even says that after marriage, everything would be decided by Xiao Hua?
The expressions on Xiao Huaâs parentsâ faces showed a hint of wavering.
