Chapter 3 Agreement

"Not..." Qiao Xuan simply acted a bit rascally, "Anyway, I'm not leaving... I admit I was wrong before, I apologize to you. If that's still not acceptable, then what do you want me to do?"

"Heh heh!" Shao Yunduan still sneered.

Qiao Xuan earnestly said, "We got married today, and if we divorce tomorrow, won't both families become a laughingstock? You should think for yourself and for your family too!"

Shao Yunduan was infuriated by her shamelessness and sarcastically said, "Should I thank you for thinking about my family?"

"Well, that's not necessary. What I mean is, we need to find a compromise to handle this matter. Obviously, divorce is not a good solution."

Shao Yunduan knew that too.

Although he wasn't very willing to this marriage deep down, everyone in the village, relatives, and friends, anyone who knew about this, envied him. They all said that his family's fortunes had changed for the better!

It made a poor boy from a rural family become the son-in-law of the county magistrate!

If the new bride left the next day after entering the family, he couldn't bear to think about how others would mock him!

In the end, it was all his bad luck.

Qiao Xuan secretly observed that his expression wasn't very good, but obviously, his attitude towards divorce wasn't so firm. She felt a bit relieved and compromised, saying softly, "How about this, you keep me here for two or three years, and when the time is right, we can divorce then."

Shao Yunduan: "..."

Shao Yunduan was a bit confused and asked in a deep voice, "Do you really think so? Waiting for two or three years won't benefit you..."

Qiao Xuan didn't think much of it and said, "In two or three years, I'll only be seventeen or eighteen, what's there to be afraid of!"

Shao Yunduan: "..." She's really confident!

Shao Yunduan had nothing to say.

Fine, since she said so herself, he had nothing to say.

"If you really want to stay in my family, you have to fulfill the duties of a daughter-in-law of the Shao family and show respect to my parents, my siblings, and not be rude."

"Also, our family is poor, there are no servants to serve you, you have to do everything yourself. The food is simple, just enough to fill your stomach. You have to think it over!"

Qiao Xuan didn't hesitate, "Don't worry, I understand all of this!"

Shao Yunduan thought to himself, she understands? She must be joking! No matter how he looked at her, she didn't seem to understand.

But, there was no other way to handle this matter for now, so he could only go along with it.

In the future... Shao Yunduan felt a bit troubled, maybe he shouldn't think about the future for now, and just endure these one or two years, and then send this big Buddha out of the Shao family smoothly!

As long as she could barely behave and not cause trouble in these one or two years, he would be satisfied, really.

They spent the night in silence.

The next morning, Qiao Xuan was awakened by Shao Yunduan.

She groggily opened her eyes, and Shao Yunduan was already dressed and standing by the bed.

He said, "It's time to get up."

Qiao Xuan made a sound of acknowledgment, blinked, yawned, and nodded, "Um, I'll get up..."

No daughter-in-law could sleep in, she understood.

Actually, when the original owner was still at her parents' home, she was also a poor little thing who got up earlier than the roosters.

It was only her who was suffering, after all, in her past life, although she was a workaholic, she had never woken up this early!

As a new daughter-in-law, she had to serve tea to the elders today.

After washing up, Qiao Xuan officially met the Shao family.
