Du Chunzhi had absolutely no desire to be there, but she had no other choice; she could only bite the bullet and try to talk her way through it.
"Uncle Village Chief, after what happened last night, I’ve finally come to my senses. It’s too hard for a woman to live alone. I can’t sleep soundly at night, and I’m always worried about someone trying to snatch my house. After thinking it over, I realized I have to remarry. I need someone to lean on."
She put on a sincere expression, her words half-truth and half-fabrication. "I spent the night thinking over all the bachelors in the village, and there aren’t many who are worthy of me. Brother Liu is honest, has plenty of strength, and is someone I can rely on."
