Forcing her daughter to marry a wealthy family
In a remote mountain village, there lives a family surnamed Li. The Li family has a flower-like daughter named Xiaowan. Xiaowan is smart and kind-hearted, and is deeply loved by the people in the village. However, her father, Li Laohan, is a greedy man who wants to marry his daughter into a wealthy family in exchange for a lifetime of glory and wealth.
One day, Li Laohan came back from the city and told Xiaowan with a happy face that he had found a good family for her, and the other party was a big family in the city, with a lot of wealth and power. When Xiao Wan heard this, a sense of foreboding suddenly surged in her heart. She knows her father's personality very well, and I'm afraid this family business will not be so simple.
Sure enough, Li Laohan's next words made Xiao Wan fall into an ice cave. He said: "Xiaowan, you also know that our family is poor, and I have no future in my life. Now I finally have such a good opportunity, you marry in the city, and our family can live a good life. You don't have to worry, although that family is powerful and powerful, it will definitely be good to you. ”
After hearing this, a trace of determination flashed in Xiao Wan's eyes. She shook her head and said resolutely, "Dad, I'm not married." I just want to stay in the village and live a peaceful life. ”
When Li Laohan heard this, he immediately became angry. He roared angrily: "You dead girl, what do you know? This is your blessing, and it is also the blessing of our family." If you don't get married, don't blame me for not recognizing you as a daughter!"
Xiao Wan's heart was desolate, she knew her father's temper, once he decided something, no one could change it. She silently shed tears, but her heart was more determined in her thoughts.
A few days later, Li Laohan suddenly announced that the wedding date had been set, and it would be next month. Xiao Wan was stunned by the news, she didn't expect her father to be so decisive. She tried to resist, but Li Laohan was forced to die, and she had no choice but to give in temporarily.
However, Xiao Wan did not give up. She began to secretly look for an opportunity to escape from marriage. She knew that if she didn't run away, she would only be forced to marry the person she didn't love at all and live a life that was worse than death.
One night, Xiao Wan took advantage of the moonlight and quietly slipped out of the house. She fled through the woods, over the hills, and into the distance. She didn't know where she was going, only that she had to escape from the place that was suffocating her.
On the night when Xiaowan escaped from marriage, Li Laohan found that his daughter was missing. He searched around angrily, but never found any trace of Xiao Wan. He was angry and worried, and he didn't know what to do.
Just when Li Laohan was anxious, someone suddenly came to the door to propose marriage. The man who came claimed to be the housekeeper of the family in the city, and he said that the wedding was approaching, and he had come to pick up the bride through the door. When Li Laohan heard this, he immediately panicked. He hesitantly said, "That...... Xiao Wan she ...... She wasn't at home. ”
When the housekeeper heard this, his face suddenly sank. He said coldly: "Li Laohan, don't play any tricks. Our young master is willing to marry your daughter because he has taken a fancy to her. If you dare to play tricks, the consequences are not something you can afford. ”
Li Laohan was so frightened that he trembled, and he hurriedly explained: "No, no. Xiao Wan she ...... She ran away. ”
"Ran away?" the butler frowned, "I have to find it back if I run away." You know the temper of our young master, if you miss the wedding date, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
Li Laohan nodded again and again, but his heart was full of despair. He knew that he had really made a big mistake this time.
However, just when he was desperate, news suddenly came. Some people said that they saw a girl in a white dress in the mountains and forests outside the village, who looked a lot like Xiaowan. When Li Laohan heard this, he was overjoyed. He hurriedly called a few villagers and chased them into the mountains and forests.
After some searching, they finally found Xiao Wan in the depths of the mountain forest. At this time, she was exhausted, but she still insisted on refusing to go back. Seeing this, Li Laohan felt guilty in his heart. He knew he was wrong, wrong. He should not have sacrificed his daughter's happiness for the sake of wealth.
So, he stepped forward, bowed deeply to Xiao Wan, and said, "Xiao Wan, it's Daddy's mistake." Daddy shouldn't have forced you to marry into the city. Forgive Daddy, let's go home. ”
Xiao Wan looked at her father's haggard and remorseful face, and the resentment in her heart gradually dissipated. She knew that although her father had made a mistake, he was her relative after all. She nodded and followed her father back to the village with the villagers.
After returning to the village, Li Laohan never mentioned that family affair again. He began to work hard to earn money to support his family. Xiaowan also opened a small shop in the village and lived a peaceful and happy life.
However, just when they thought it was all over, the steward of the city reappeared. He took a group of fierce and vicious subordinates to the village to settle accounts with Li Laohan. They said that Li Laohan ruined their family's marriage and wanted him to pay the price.
In the face of such a threat, Li Laohan was undaunted. He stepped forward to protect his daughter and the villagers. "I already knew I was wrong, and I paid the price," he said. If you still want to do something, come to me. ”
When the housekeeper saw this, he was surprised in his heart. He didn't expect this seemingly weak farmer to have such courage and determination. He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Old man Li, since you already know that you are wrong, then we will give you a chance." As long as you hand over your daughter, we will not be guilty of the past. ”
When Li Laohan heard this, he was immediately furious. He shouted, "I will never let you hurt my daughter again!"
Seeing this, the butler sneered and ordered his subordinates to do it. For a time, the entrance of the village was in chaos, and the villagers picked up farm tools one after another to protect their homes. However, those men were all well-trained thugs, and the villagers were no match for them at all. Soon, someone was injured.
When Xiao Wan saw this scene, she was very anxious. She knew she couldn't sit idly by, so she stepped forward and said in a loud voice, "Stop! I'm willing to go with you, but please don't hurt my father and fellow villagers." ”
When Li Laohan heard this, he immediately became anxious. He took Xiao Wan's hand and said, "Xiao Wan, you can't go! Dad would rather die than let you be wronged again!"
Xiao Wan shook her head and said firmly, "Dad, this is my own choice." I can't just watch my fellow villagers get hurt for me. ”
A trace of tears flashed in Li Laohan's eyes, he knew that his daughter had grown up and had her own ideas and responsibilities. He let go of his hand and nodded silently.
So, Xiao Wan left the village with the housekeeper and the thugs. She glanced back at her father and fellow villagers, and her heart was full of reluctance and determination.
However, Xiao Wan did not go directly back to the family in the city. She took the opportunity to escape on the way, and she decided to find a strength, one that would protect herself and her family from harm.
She trekked through mountains and rivers, went through hardships, and finally found a master who lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests. Seeing Xiaowan's tenacity and determination, the master decided to take her as an apprentice and teach her martial arts and spells.
A few years later, Xiao Wan returned from school. Not only is she strong in martial arts, but she is also proficient in spells and can exorcise demons and subdue demons. She returned to the village and used her strength to protect her father and fellow villagers.
The stewards and thugs of the city never showed up again. When they heard about Xiao Wan's deeds, they were all frightened and didn't dare to provoke the village again.
Xiaowan proved with her actions that she is not a weak woman at the mercy of others. With her courage and wisdom, she changed her own destiny and the fate of the entire village.
Since then, the people of the village have lived a peaceful and happy life. They are grateful to Xiaowan for saving her life, and they also admire her courage and wisdom. And Xiaowan has also grown into a strong, independent, and responsible woman in the process, and has become a beautiful scenery in the village.
The story spread throughout the mountains and became a good story. It tells people that no matter how great the difficulties and challenges they encounter, as long as they have courage and wisdom, they will be able to overcome everything. And true happiness can only be found in one's own efforts and struggles. Time flies, Xiaowan's reputation spreads more and more widely in the countryside, and people give her a thumbs up when they mention her. She is not only a strong martial artist, but also a philanthropist, often helping those in need. And Li Laohan is also extremely proud and proud of his daughter's excellence.
However, the calm days did not last long. One day, a fierce monster suddenly appeared in the mountains and forests near the village, which wantonly destroyed crops, harmed villagers, and made people live in fear. Xiao Wan knew that she had to stand up and protect this home she loved so much.
She took her weapons and magic weapons and went to the depths of the mountains and forests alone to find the demon beast. After a fierce battle, Xiao Wan finally subdued the demon beast and sealed it in a cave with her own mana.
When the villagers learned the news, they flocked to Xiaowan's house to express their gratitude. Xiao Wan accepted their thanks with a smile, but she knew that her mission was far from over.
Soon after, the city's butler appeared with a group of thugs. They don't seem to have given up on the hunt for Xiao Wan and plan to take her away. However, they didn't expect Xiao Wan to become so powerful, and their plan soon went bankrupt.
Xiao Wan used her martial arts and mana to easily defeat those thugs and subdue the butler to the ground. She looked at the butler coldly and said, "Do you think I am still the weak woman who is at the mercy of others? I tell you, I am no longer the same person I used to be." If you dare to provoke me again, I will let you have no return!"
The housekeeper was shocked by Xiao Wan's momentum and hurriedly begged for mercy. He promised not to harass Xiaowan and the village again, and left with his men in disgrace.
Since then, Xiaowan has become the patron saint of the village. She uses her own strength to protect the safety and happiness of the villagers. And Li Laohan is also deeply grateful to his daughter, he knows that if it were not for Xiaowan, their life would be extremely difficult.
Xiaowan is also growing and improving in the process. Not only did she learn more martial arts and spells, but she also learned how to lead and manage. She led the villagers to improve their lives and develop the economy, so that the village became richer and more prosperous.
As the years passed, Xiaowan gradually grew old. But her story and spirit have been passed down in the countryside. She used her actions to tell people that as long as they have courage and wisdom, they can overcome all difficulties and challenges, and as long as they have love and responsibility, they can create a better life.
And Xiaowan's legendary story has also become an example and source of strength in the hearts of generations of people. Under her influence, more and more people began to bravely pursue their dreams and ideals, and wrote their own legends with their own efforts and struggles.
