Cheng Ping made an outrageous demand, asking Cheng Fang for two hundred yuan. The Old Village Chief and the brigade leader were so furious they beat him up and chased him out of Xiaxi Village, forbidding him from ever setting foot in it again.
Not daring to return to Xiaxi Village, Cheng Ping went to the transport team to harass Cheng Fang. Everyone there knew that Cheng Ping had abandoned his five-year-old son to become a live-in son-in-law and stepfather for another family, and they despised him for now coming back to demand money from his own flesh and blood. Later, when his disturbances became too much and he refused to listen to the transport team’s leaders, they had no choice but to transfer Cheng Fang to work as a long-distance driver. With Cheng Fang no longer at the transport station, Cheng Ping stopped coming after a few failed attempts to find him. However, over the past two years, whenever the farming season was slow, Cheng Ping would go and loiter at the transport team office. Cheng Fang found him incredibly annoying, yet there was nothing he could really do about it.
Looking at his wife-to-be with a pitiful expression, Cheng Fang said, "My dad was able to be a live-in son-in-law, so I can too. Yuanchun, surely you don't want to back out of marrying me?"
