Chapter 53 Do you want to break off the engagement?

Old Mrs. Chen wanted to die. If she had known this would happen, she would never have severed the relationship with the first wife.

It's all her fault for being self-righteous and arbitrary. Things have come to this point, and she is shooting herself in the foot. She deserves it!

But there is no medicine for regret in the world.

Now I can only delay it one day at a time, and wait for the right opportunity to give the drug to that dead girl, and send it to Li the butcher's house, and this matter will be over.

Otherwise there is really no good solution.

Thinking of this, she looked at Zhao the matchmaker and smiled a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Sister Zhao, I beg you, please talk to your nephew quickly. Don't get angry first. Let's sit down and talk it over."

Matchmaker Zhao said with a cold face, "What else do you want me to say? My nephew robbed your house and beat you until you knelt down and begged for mercy. You also ignored me when I brought the case to the government.

Not only will you be sued, but you might even be charged with fraud. At this point, you better think about what to do!"

Butcher Li shook the fat on his face and said, "Hurry up and give me the bride, or you will be in trouble."

Old Mrs. Chen's breathing tightened, and she suddenly glanced at Chen Qingqing's face. Seeing that she was looking at her with interest, she became furious.

You silly girl, do you think I can’t do anything to you just because you split up the family and severed your relationship?

My son crawled out of my intestines, and I don’t believe that Chen Zhanshan could watch his mother being forced to death.

She looked at Chen Zhanshan and saw the hint of worry in his eyes. She felt happy in her heart. It seemed that her son still cared about her.

Old Mrs. Chen turned around and took a few quick steps, then fell to her knees in front of Chen Zhanshan with a thud, holding his thighs tightly with both hands, crying and shouting with tears and snot.

"Zhanshan, my dear son, you can't just ignore this matter. If you don't marry Qing girl to Li the butcher, my mother will die."

"Mom, you're embarrassing your son. Hurry up and get up. Let's talk things over."

Chen Zhanshan was frightened by the sudden action of Old Lady Chen and then he knelt down on his knees.

He looked up at the vicious butcher Li, then at his flower-like daughter, and shook his head vigorously.

"Mother, why are you still thinking of marrying Qing to such a man? If you want to settle this matter, just listen to your son, cancel the marriage, and return the money to him."

"Son, if you don't agree, I won't get up."

"Mom, you can't force your son like this!"

"Zhanshan, you've seen it too. If Qing girl doesn't marry him, Li the butcher won't let it go. Isn't it enough to just beg you?"

Old Mrs. Chen felt that there was hope, and it seemed that she had to add fuel to the fire. She picked up a stone and pretended to hit herself on the head.

"If you don't agree, I will die in front of you."

Chen Zhanshan hurriedly stopped Mrs. Chen, his hands clenched into fists, his eyes red. Facing her crying, Chen Zhanshan couldn't bear it.

But he was absolutely reluctant to marry his daughter off, and now he was in a dilemma.

Old Mrs. Chen burst into tears, waiting for Chen Zhanshan's answer...

Everyone was shocked by Old Lady Chen's actions.

Butcher Li rubbed his hands together and stared at Chen Zhanshan, hoping that he would agree to what Old Lady Chen said, so that he could take this little girl who looked like a hot pepper home.

Ever since I was subdued by Qing Yatou last time, I couldn't get her out of my mind. I liked her from the bottom of my heart.

真要能娶回家，他发誓一定不揍她，更何况自己好像打不过她。

A hint of pride flashed in Old Man Chen's eyes. The old woman was capable and his eldest son was filial. At this point, he would definitely not refuse.

Chen Zhanliang's palms were covered in cold sweat, and he looked at Chen Qingqing with sympathy. His eldest brother had been the most obedient since he was a child, and since his mother was threatening him with her life, his eldest brother would definitely give up resistance.

Chen Qingqing laughed. This was pure moral kidnapping. Even at this time, he still wanted to take advantage of her.

She walked forward and pulled Chen Zhanshan up with force. "Dad, who do you care about calling mother? Our family has been driven out by Old Lady Chen. She said she would never have anything to do with our family again. Now whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with you."

Chen Zhanshan snapped out of his daze and looked at Old Lady Chen with a cold gaze. He said to Chen Zhanliang coldly, "Chen Zhanliang, take your mother back home quickly. We've already severed our relationship, and you're still trying to take advantage of my daughter. Don't force me to go to the government and sue you for attempting to abduct a decent girl."

Old Mrs. Chen's last bit of hope collapsed. She glared at Chen Qingqing viciously and said, "You stupid girl, just wait for me. If I don't knock you out and hand you over to this beast, I will be unworthy of all the humiliation I have suffered today."

Chen Qingqing met her vicious eyes, raised her eyebrows, and looked provocative. Who wouldn't kick someone when he's down?

She looked at Zhao the matchmaker with a smile, "Aunt Zhao, since Old Lady Chen has accepted your money but can't hand over the bride, and she doesn't want to cancel the engagement, then the Chen family doesn't only have one granddaughter."

Matchmaker Zhao's eyes lit up. "Thank you so much for reminding me, Qing girl. Otherwise, I would have forgotten about it."

Chen Qingqing waved her hand generously, "Don't be polite, Aunt Zhao. I'm also worried that you'll lose both your money and your life!"

Li the butcher felt a little regretful when he heard this, but his reputation was so bad that it spread throughout a hundred miles, and it was really difficult for him to find a wife.

Since Old Mrs. Chen still has a granddaughter, it’s okay to make do with it.

He immediately smiled and said, "Aunt Zhao, is that girl pretty? If she's ugly, I don't want her."

"Don't worry, nephew. The last time I saw her, she was fair and tender, even more delicate than that rich lady. She lives in town now."

"Really? Fine, fine, I just like tender ones." Butcher Li swallowed his saliva and glared at Old Lady Chen. "Stop poking me here. Take me to see your granddaughter."

Old Mrs. Chen was so angry that her eyes turned white. The damn girl actually brought disaster upon her precious granddaughter.

Ruolan is her beloved daughter. If her son passes the imperial examination and becomes a scholar, she will be a scholar's daughter. Her husband-in-law will be rich or noble. How could she marry a butcher?

She shook her head repeatedly, forcing herself to smile flatteringly.

"Grandson-in-law, no, no, no, big brother, this is absolutely not allowed. My Ruolan is still young and can't get married yet."

Old Man Chen's heart tightened, and he bravely explained, "My granddaughter is still a child, you can't have any ideas about her."

Matchmaker Zhao snorted coldly, "Sister-in-law, who are you trying to fool? Don't think I don't know. Your Ruolan is sixteen years old this year. When I was her age, there were children running around everywhere. And you still say she's young. I think you're just trying to break off the engagement."

"How dare we!" Old Mrs. Chen was almost in tears.

"This doesn't work, and that doesn't work. What do you think we should do?" Matchmaker Zhao had a gloomy face and lost her patience.
