When little pepper said she wouldn't marry, the woman just smiled: "silly child, what nonsense you're talking about."

"Mom, I'm serious. I won't marry." Said little pepper.

"How can this work?" The woman said, "the dowry of the Du family has been accepted. If you return it, not only will you be laughed at by the whole village, but also your father's face. Have you considered these?"

Little pepper smelled the speech and paused. She said reluctantly, "but have you considered asking me to marry someone I don't like?"

The woman sighed, stroked little pepper's head and said, "what do you like or dislike? If you stay together for a long time, you will naturally have feelings."

"Mom, I don't know." Little pepper said, threw himself into the woman's arms and burst into tears.

For a moment, the woman didn't know how to comfort pepper. Seeing Yang Chen standing aside, she couldn't help asking, "who are you?"

"I'm a friend of pepper." Yang Chen replied.

"To her wedding?" The woman asked again.

"No." Yang Chen said, "even if it is true, it is also to attend her birthday party."

"Mom, I won't marry anything." Little pepper cried for a while. He felt that it was useless for his mother to cry, so he stopped crying.

"Absurd, marry not marry, where is it that you has the final say?" At the moment, a middle-aged man came out. Yang Chen saw that he had a flat head, a national character face, very dignified, with slightly white temples and a few grooves on his forehead. It was obvious that he worked a lot at ordinary times.

"Dad." When little pepper saw someone, he shouted. In front of his mother, little pepper can act like a spoiled child, but in front of his father, little pepper doesn't have the courage.

"The Du family will come and pick you up tonight." Little pepper's father Chen Zhibang said sternly, "in the future, we should learn how to be a qualified wife."

"I have to learn Taoism from master Yundong tomorrow." Little pepper hurriedly said how she wished her father could see in the face of Yundong real people and not force her to marry.

"Girls, what's the use of learning Taoism?" Chen Zhibang said, "today is your last day at home. If you go home later, you will be a guest."

Hearing what Chen Zhibang said, little pepper's tears fell down again.

"Actually, I think pepper is still young, so it is unnecessary to marry so soon." Yang Chen said.

Chen Zhibang's eyes suddenly fell on Yang Chen and said coldly, "who are you? Dare you mind my family? "

"I'm a friend of pepper." Yang Chen said, "I can't manage your family affairs. I just manage my friends."

"Little pepper, look what friends you make outside." Chen Zhibang said, "you are not allowed to go out in the future. You shouldn't have promised Yundong to open a museum and teach disciples."

"What does this have to do with immortal Yundong?" Yang Chen asked.

"Without Yundong real person, little pepper won't know you. If she doesn't know you, she will listen to me." Chen Zhibang said.

"I want to ask, is he your own daughter?" Yang Chen asked.

"Bold!" Chen Zhibang said angrily, "I think you are my daughter's friend. I don't care about you. Please leave immediately, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

"Dad, don't do this." Little pepper said quickly, "Yang Chen is my life-saving benefactor. He was invited by me to attend my birthday."

"What savior? What danger are you in? " Chen Zhibang heard the speech. Although his expression was still so serious, the concern between his eyebrows and eyes could not be concealed.

"My daughter was playing by the river. She fell and almost drowned." Pepper answered truthfully, "it was Yang Chen who saved me."

"Nonsense!" Chen Zhibang said angrily, "I've told you many times that you can't get close to the river. If you get close again, you deserve to drown."

"Why can't you get close? You don't tell me why." Little pepper said, "besides, don't I live well?"

"That's your life." Chen Zhibang shouted, "go in with your mother and wash your body."

"Every time I go to the river, I have to scrub my body. It's really annoying." Little pepper complained, but he obediently followed his mother into the house.

Chen Zhibang looked at Yang Chen and eased his attitude when he learned that he had saved his daughter: "I am very grateful to you for saving my daughter, but as her friend, I don't want you to meddle in her private affairs."

Yang Chen also knows that these are actually private affairs of little pepper's family. As an outsider, why should he manage them?

But I can't bear to see little pepper crying so sad. If little pepper really gets married, Zhuo Meier can't cry to death.

It seems that we have to persuade slowly.

"Well, I don't care about her getting married. Can I stay and attend her wedding?" Yang Chen said, "this is my first time to your village. I also want to feel the culture of your village."

"The people in our village have never been in touch with the outside world, which is expected to make you laugh, but it's ok if you want to stay and visit my daughter's wedding." Chen Zhibang said, "come in with me."

Yang Chen enters the living room. Chen Zhibang asks Yang Chen to sit down and offers Yang Chen tea.

"We cooked all these tea leaves ourselves. Have a taste." Chen Zhibang said.

"OK, thank you." Yang Chen picked up the cup of tea filled with fragrance and sipped it gently, but she picked her eyebrows.

"How's it going?" Chen Zhibang asked.

"To tell you the truth, it smells delicious, but why does it taste bitter?" Yang Chen said.

Who will drink such tea?

Chen Zhibang sighed and said, "there's no way, because the water source of our village comes from the river, the river where you saved little pepper."

"Do you mean that the water in that river is bitter?" Yang Chen asked.

Chen Zhibang nodded: "for so many years, we have been drinking this bitter water, and we are used to it."

"Excuse me." Yang Chen asked, "when I first came, I had to teach the water avoidance formula by little pepper. I once dived into the water, but I heard a creepy voice. Is the water quality very bitter?"

"You... What did you hear?" Chen Zhibang suddenly became nervous.

"I didn't hear much." Yang Chen said that she went with emergency pepper.

"Remember, don't go near that river in the future, you know?" Chen Zhibang said sternly, "also, I promised you to attend my daughter's wedding only after you saved little pepper's life. However, from now on, you can't leave my sight. After attending my daughter's wedding, you will leave the village immediately!"

Yang Chen always felt that Chen Zhibang was hiding something. When he was about to ask more questions, he heard a loud bang in the yard, and then a group of people rushed in.
