Kissed and Seduced By the Most Rough Man in the Village

"Moreover, you've only been here for a month, and you don't like to talk to the people in the village. You definitely don't know the situation in Team Leader Jiang's family. Jiang Yexun has two elder brothers, and they are the sons of his father's first wife. They're definitely not on good terms with Jiang Yexun. Although Jiang Yexun's mother is easygoing, she can't control the children left behind by her husband’s ex-wife. Those two have their own mother, you know.

Even though they're not in our production team, the marriages of Jiang's eldest and second sons were arranged by their own mothers, and their wives were quite assertive. Team Leader Jiang, in order to maintain his reputation in the production team, won't do anything to make others think he's biased. Sometimes, to keep the peace, he might even let his current wife and the youngest children endure some grievances. If you marry into that family, you'll be mistreated, and you'll have to endure a lot. With your personality..."

As Qian Siyu spoke, she shook her head.

Tao Junlan, who had snapped out of her thoughts, immediately pushed Su Xiaoxiao, who hadn't said a word.

"See? Even someone as kind-hearted as Siyu thinks poorly of Jiang’s family. You can imagine how terrible they are. Don't just blindly throw yourself into a pit. If you marry into the Jiang family, you won't be able to return to the city. Your parents and your brother care about you. Are you going to abandon your family just because of a debt of gratitude? If you really appreciate Jiang Yexun, give him some things and money as a token of thanks. There's no need to sacrifice yourself."

"Let me think about it," Su Xiaoxiao said. Knowing that they were only looking out for her, she didn't get angry.

But with her lips pouting, she seemed to be insisting.

Tao Junlan wanted to continue persuading her but was gently pulled back by Qian Siyu.

Qian Siyu shook her head discreetly.

As fellow educated youth in the same production team, they had already done enough by giving advice at this point. Pushing further might just make things worse.

Tao Junlan felt a bit reluctant, but she wasn't unreasonable. She stood up, tucking in the blankets around Su Xiaoxiao.

"We're going to have dinner now. Take your time to think, and don't worry, we won't harm you."

"I know you're all concerned about me, that's why you're telling me all this. Don't worry; I'll think it through carefully," Su Xiaoxiao responded softly.

Watching all the female educated youths leave to have dinner and close the door, Su Xiaoxiao sighed with a sense of helplessness.

In her previous life, when she was pressured by the gossip and rumors in the production team and decided to marry Jiang Yexun, Tao Junlan had said similar things to her. But in her previous life, she had been too arrogant, thinking that Tao Junlan was just trying to scare her.

If only she had taken some time to consider Tao Junlan's words back then, she might not have been fooled by the cunning people from the Jiang family. She not only hurt the who truly cared for her in the Jiang family but also grew to resent her marriage with Jiang Yexun.

This time, in her second life, she was determined to make the Jiang family repay all the debts they owed her. But she wondered about the bracelet she had in her hand earlier. Why did it suddenly disappear? Did it really fall into the river? She remembered that at the moment it disappeared, her hand was raised, and it couldn't have simply slipped away. Did it enter her body?

Su Xiaoxiao had watched enough TV shows and read enough novels about such scenarios after her death. Moreover, this could also explain why she craved Jiang Yexun's body so much. After all, in her previous life, he had devoted himself entirely to her, and it made sense that the ancestral bracelet from the Guo family would want to fulfill him. However, such a powerful bracelet surely wouldn't have only one function, right?

"Hey, bracelet? Hey, ancestors of the Guo family, are you there?" Su Xiaoxiao whispered from under her blanket.

After waiting for a while with no response, she persisted, "Hey, space? Spirit spring? System? Cheat system?"

However, the silence of the air was the only answer she received.

Well, it seemed that the jade bracelet didn't have any other functions. But it had already given her a second chance, allowing her to let go of all her pretentious thoughts and be with Jiang Yexun without any reservations. That was already good enough.

Her life had been filled with regrets and unhappiness. This time, she was determined to prevent those tragedies and regrets from happening.

"Third younger brother, what are you doing? We only have three eggs at home, and you took them all," Jiang's eldest sister-in-law exclaimed when she saw Jiang Yexun returning home with a basin.

After placing the basin inside, he went to the kitchen and took three eggs, as if he were preparing to cook.

He was in a hurry to prepare the meal when she asked anxiously, but Jiang Yexun completely ignored her and continued to search through the bag of flour in the kitchen.

Seeing him scoop out two large spoonfuls, Jiang's eldest sister-in-law patted her legs in distress. "Ah, third younger brother, are you trying to use up all our family's food? We still need to live, you know."

"I'll replace it this afternoon," Jiang Yexun glared at her and replied impatiently.

Jiang's eldest sister-in-law was taken aback and immediately stopped her complaints.

She had been married to the Jiang family for many years and had never had a good relationship with her own husband's third younger brother. However, seeing so many good things, which she couldn't even afford to eat regularly, being wasted like this, really hurt her heart.

Jiang's second sister-in-law came over when hearing the commotion. She immediately understood what was going on upon witnessing Jiang Yexun's actions. "Third younger brother, are you cooking for Educated Youth Su?" she asked with a smile.

Jiang Yexun remained indifferent to her question. However, the Jiang family's eldest sister-in-law exploded, "Hmph! Why? That Miss Bourgeoisie thinks she can eat the food from our house? She even managed to seduce a man from our family! Shameless."

Before she could finish her sentence, a piece of firewood came flying towards her head. Unable to dodge it in time, she was struck and let out a painful cry.

Jiang's second sister-in-law couldn't help but smirk at the sight but quickly suppressed her emotions when she caught Jiang Yexun's cold gaze. "Third younger brother, today you saved her from drowning, and she should be willing to marry you. It doesn't matter if you take some things from home for her. However, don't get carried away and make the entire family a laughingstock."

She appeared to be advising him, but her words were far more unpleasant than those of the eldest sister-in-law.

"Hmph! This is my son's business. When did it become your concern? You all, get out of here!" Aunt Guo scolded as soon as she returned from her daughter's house.

"Mother, can't we even say anything about third younger brother taking so many good things from home? After all, we are also part of the Jiang family. And look at my face; he hit me with a firewood stick. I am his eldest sister-in-law!" Hu Yuezhen pointed to her red and swollen face, complaining angrily.

"Get out! When did my son ever take advantage of the family? If he eats something, he'll make up for it later. Unlike you two spendthrift women, not only do you secretly eat, but you also steal from us and take things to your parents' home. Do you think I'm dead and don't know anything?" Aunt Guo scolded impatiently.

The two Jiang sisters-in-law immediately became obedient. Jiang's second sister-in-law still tried to explain with a smile, "Mother, I'm just worried that third younger brother will be deceived by that Educated Youth Su. He's already at the age for marriage, and if he causes a scandal, it will be even harder for him to find a spouse."

Aunt Guo's expression changed, but she firmly kicked the two troublesome women out of the kitchen.

"It's my son's business. None of you should interfere!" When she saw the two of them had left the kitchen, Aunt Guo quickly closed the kitchen door.

Seeing that Jiang Yexun was still kneading the dough with his head down, she walked over and patted him impatiently. "They’re gone; hurry up and tell me what happened."

On the way back from her daughter's house, the villagers had told her about it. The most delicate and arrogant Educated Youth Su from the production team had fallen into the river and was rescued by her son. The two of them were even hugging and kissing. Everyone congratulated her, saying that her son was about to marry a city girl. When she heard this news, her mind went blank, feeling like the world was about to collapse. She didn't dare to ask anything on the way back and rushed home in a daze.
