Chapter 977: 977 Attracting Women Tip 2
Shi Cai walked out of the main hall, “Chuan, Chuan, all day long you keep Chuan on your lips—I most hate Chuan!
Have you forgotten?
Months ago, when old lady Liu wanted to buy Su Qingyue for seventeen taels of silver, I merely laughed and said Su Qingyue was ugly, and Chuan fiercely fought with me.
Not only was I bedridden for a month, but my manhood was nearly crippled by his kick!”
“Older brother…” Shi Shanzao muttered to him in a low voice.
Old Master Shi’s face was fierce as he said, “Chuan has made your older brother suffer enough, yet you still wish to marry Chuan—it’s like you’re seeking misery on purpose!”
“But I do like Chuan!” Shi Shanzao complained, “When Chuan was poor before, I told you I wanted to marry him, but all of you despised him for being penniless and poor.
Now that he has money, he doesn’t want me.
It’s all your fault!”
Old Master Shi patted his daughter’s shoulder, “Zao, there are plenty of talented young men in the village; surely you can pick a few decent ones.
Just forget about Chuan…”
With a sneer at the corner of his mouth, Shi Cai said, “I do agree with Shanzao marrying Chuan.
Even if they are talented, who owns more fields than Xiao Yuchuan?
And those who own fields don’t have as much cash silver as his family has, which amounts to more than a thousand taels.
Besides, once you marry into the Xiao Family and Chuan becomes my brother-in-law, I’d like to see if he still dares to act arrogantly!”
“You worthless thing!” old Master Shi bellowed, “Can you jest about your sister’s happiness?
Even if Chuan were willing to marry your sister, there’d be no happy days after entering their door.
I’ll visit Wang Meipo again sometime, and have her find a better husband for Zao.
Visiting matchmaker Zhao’s place works too!”
“Other than Xiao Yuchuan, I will marry no one else!” Shi Shanzao cried as she ran back to her room.
…
Early the next day, Xiao Yuchuan went to the village carpenter to order a pair of fan yard doors.
After leaving the carpenter’s, he walked onto a village road when Shi Shanzao called out to him from behind, “Brother Chuan!”
Xiao Yuchuan glanced back at her, “Little sister Shi, do you need something?”
Shi Shanzao, looking at the handsome face of Chuan, blushed with embarrassment, “Brother Chuan, I…
I have something I want to say to you in private.”
As people occasionally passed by, she spoke very softly.
“I’m about to get married, and you being an unmarried girl, it’s inconvenient to speak privately.
Whatever you have to say, just say it.”
“Brother Chuan, yesterday Wang Meipo visited your house to propose marriage…” she said nervously, “The girl she mentioned…
it’s actually me.”
“Oh,” he replied indifferently, “I already made it very clear to Wang Meipo yesterday that in this life, I’ll only marry my wife.
She must have made my intentions clear to your family as well.”
Tears began to well up in Shi Shanzao’s eyes, “Brother Chuan, I’ve actually always liked you…”
“That’s enough.” Xiao Yuchuan waved his hand dismissively, “Don’t pull a Liu Xianglian.
If you do, your reputation will be ruined, and you won’t find it easy to get married.
Whether you like me or not, you’ve never been in my heart.”
“Brother Chuan…” Shi Shanzao wanted to say something else.
“You’re not getting any younger; find a man and get married soon.” With that, Xiao Yuchuan had already walked far away.
Sigh, truly a handsome face that unwantedly attracts affection.
Shi Shanzao watched Xiao Yuchuan’s indifferent retreating figure as tears streamed down her face.

She regretted deeply—if she had defied her family and married Chuan earlier, she would not now have to watch helplessly as he married someone else.
These days, she had thought about making scenes, about trying various ways to seduce and tempt Xiao Yuchuan.
