Chapter 1006 Held the Wedding Banquet but Did Not Collect the Marriage Certificate
“If the person who brought the child here today was the vige chief, then the child must be the vige chief’s and Widow Chen’s child.”
Father Wei was angry. “How dare they implicate us after doing such indecent deeds? How can they put the child at our doorway? Are they thinking of implicating us? They are so evil. This won’t do. I must reason it out with the vige chief. He is inhumane!”
“Wait.” Mother Wei stopped Father Wei. “It is certainly impossible for us to forget about this. We must reason it out with the vige chief. However, we can use another approach.”
Mother Wei was a scheming person. Perhaps Wei De had inherited his craftiness from her.
The next day, Mother Wei visited the vige chief with all smiles. She said that she wanted to chat with the vige chief about the happenings in the vige.
When the vige chief’s wife walked away to pour water for her, Mother Wei told the vige chief that she knew about the identity of the baby girl.
The vige chief was in shock that he failed to hide his emotions. His wife came out right then. Mother Wei greeted her with a smile and left.
The vige chief left his daughter at the doorway of the Wei family as he knew that Mother Wei could no longer conceive another child and they only had a son.
It was just nice that he sent his daughter to the Wei family. They would have a son and a daughter.
He thought that no one would find out about this. To his surprise, in less than twenty-four hours, the Wei family found out about his bad deeds and used it to threaten him.
The vige chief who was scared out of his wits had no choice but to meet Mother Wei behind the mountain.
No one knew what they talked about. But the conclusion was that the Wei family would help raise the daughter of the vige chief.
After the child grew up, Wei De would marry her.
Of course, the Wei family would not help the vige chief raise his child for free. As the vige chief, he had to help the Wei family in whatever ways that he could. He must help him out in his career.
If Wei De was sessful, the daughter of the vige chief would be able to lead a good life.
Since the Wei family received help from the vige chief, their days got better and they had enough money to raise an unrted child.
Mother Wei treated the girl fairly well. She only had to help out with simple household chores. Although she was not treated like the princess, at least they did not ill-treat her.
She always had enough to eat. The Wei family did not starve her or scold her or raise their hands on her because she was adopted.
Therefore, the Wei family had a good reputation in the vige.
Later, when Wei De and the youngdy grew up, the vige chief sent word that he hoped that Wei De would marry the youngdy as soon as possible.
Mother Wei was smart. She knew that the country was recruiting soldiers and the vige chief was able to help her son be a soldier.
The vige chief threatened and enticed them with an offer—unless Wei De was his son-inw, he would not help him be recruited.
In fact, this was the reason why the vige chief urged Wei De to marry the youngdy.
The vige chief knew that Mother Wei had him under control as they knew about his secret.
As soon as the news that the country was recruiting soldiers, the vige chief knew that Mother Wei would definitelye looking for him, threatening him to help Wei De join the army.
Since he had no other choice but to help Wei De, he must stand to gain from it as well.
The Wei family was scheming and calctive. Perhaps the Wei family would be able to strike it rich.
If Wei De was as scheming as his mother and found out the secrets of some big-shots after leaving the vige, he would then be able to make endless demands of him and have a promising future ahead of him.
The vige chief thought of getting his daughter to marry Wei De in order to protect his interests.
As long as Wei De married his younger daughter, even if he could not tell everyone that he was her father, by the time the Wei family was rich, he had his means to make sure that Wei De eded to his demands.
Wei De was very happy to hear that he had the opportunity to be a soldier.
However, when he heard that the prerequisite for bing a soldier was to marry his sister, Wei De became suspicious and asked his parents about it.
After learning the circumstances of the matter, Wei De told his mother to demand money from the vige chief secretly.
Everyone in the vige knew that the Wei family adopted the youngdy and no one knew who her biological parents were.
Therefore, if Wei De married the youngdy, they would not need to go through the same procedure as other people.
After demanding money from the vige chief, Mother Wei listened to her son and held a four- to five-table wedding banquet, hosting the vigers and the vige chief and his family.
In the vige, as long as the couple held a wedding banquet, they were considered married.
Wei De was well aware of that. He made use of the loopholes to hold a wedding banquet to reassure the vige chief and to be confirmed of a ce in the army.
Furthermore, Wei De was not young anymore. He was at an age full of vigor and vitality.
The younger daughter of the vige chief was pretty and had delicate features.
After marrying thedy, Wei De was her husband and could be intimate with her.
Regardless of his intention to answer to the vige chief or to satisfy his own needs, he was intimate with thedy on the night they had the wedding banquet.
Wei De had to report to the army the next day and there were a lot of procedures to go through. Wei De felt that this was the only time that they were intimate and it would not be a big issue. He did not think much about it and only concentrated on nning his future.
Wei De was indeed scheming. Back then, he did not know Zhai Hua and he never dreamed that he would have a chance to date the daughter of the chief. But he already knew the significance of the marriage certificate.
He followed the customs of the countryside to hold a wedding banquet and marry the youngdy. However, he never once brought up the need to collect the marriage certificate.
The reason why Wei De did this was to leave a way out for himself, thinking that there would be a day where he might get to know a better girl.
In the end, Wei De was lucky and he had nned it well. He met Zhai Hua, who was a silly girl and she was taken in by his lies, falling for his tricks.
Since Wei De did not collect the marriage certificate with the woman, the Zhai family would not be able to find out from his profile that he had a wife in the countryside.
Father Wei might like to take advantage of others, but he was timid and not evil-natured. Unlike him, Mother Wei and Wei De were truly mother and son. They were equally scheming and ill-natured.
Mother Wei was ted when she knew that her son dated the daughter of the chief in the army.
