Quynh took three deep breaths to suppress her anger: "Whatever! Answer whichever question you want first, what matters is your answer!"
Seeing his little wife angered by him, Dai felt guilty. He had never actually wanted to make her angry, he just somehow always managed to, and Dai truly didn't know why.
So that she wouldn't be angry anymore, Dai scratched his left side, then his right, thought for a long time, and finally said: "I don't have parents anymore, so there's no one to arrange a proper marriage for me."
After waiting so long for such a sentence, Quynh asked through gritted teeth: "What else?"
[Why is my wife grinding her teeth?]
[Did I do something to make her unhappy again?]
Dai stammered: "Also... also... wife, don't be angry. It's... it's because I couldn't get a wife. Heaven knows I've never done a bad thing in my life, so it let you fall from the sky for me!"
Heavens!
I'm not some fairy descending to the mortal world! How could I have fallen from the sky?
You've never done a bad thing in your life, so does that mean I've done all the evil deeds, which is why heaven treats me this way?
To keep from going insane, Quynh once again took three deep breaths before speaking: "I don't want to be your wife, I want to leave! I don't want to stay in this backwater mountain!"
Hearing her talk of leaving, Dai no longer needed to think: "No! You are my wife, I won't let you go, not for the rest of my life!"
With the country bumpkin before her being so stubborn, this time it was Quynh's turn to tear at her hair.
"Dai, do you ultimately want a wife, or do you just not want to let me go?"
[If you want a wife, that's easy, I'll marry you off to someone and then leave!]
[But if you just don't want to let me go, and want me to serve a rapist for the rest of my life, then you might as well kill me first!]
Addressed so directly by his name, Dai blinked blankly: "Wife, you are my wife. If I don't want my wife to go, then of course I don't want you to go. Haven't I made that clear?"
Hearing this, Quynh just wanted to slap herself a few times.
Where had her brain gone? Where did her brilliant, invincible brain go? How could she be so turned around by this brute?
Quynh blamed herself first; she wasn't usually such a hot-tempered person!
Why was it that when facing this country bumpkin, this nameless anger just erupted all over her body? Even the soles of her feet were boiling with rage.
This brute must have been born with a talent for driving her mad!
After telling herself to calm down countless times, Quynh finally composed herself.
"Hey, you brute, I'm asking you, and you have to tell the truth. If the person you picked up wasn't me, would you have insisted on keeping her as your wife?"
This question left Dai both confused and looking pitiful.
"Wife, my name is Dai, not brute. I don't know how to answer your question. I only picked you up, no one else, so I really can't compare."
She knew that if she didn't use stronger measures, they could talk until morning and the result would be the same!
[Fine, whether you're a brute or Dai, I'll give you points for guts![
[Today, I will endure!]
Quynh gritted her teeth: "Dai, don't you just want a wife? Let me ask you, if I help you marry a wife, can you get me an identity card and then let me go?"
"Marry a wife? Wife, are you saying you'll marry another wife for me? But I already have a wife. I'm afraid I can't afford to support too many wives."
"... Son of a bitch!"
