"Yes, my family is poor. But we have a good family background, and Mingyu is good-looking and has a bright future."

Even though he has been divorced, you are not the only woman in Anping County who wants to marry him.

Ten taels of silver? How dare you ask for that?

Get out of my way. My family really can't afford a daughter-in-law like you.

The ancients said that if one's family is not peaceful, how can one talk about anything else?

With your temper, you can't stand being wronged, and we don't want to suffer your torment just for the sake of peace in our home.

So, you should part ways with Mingyu amicably as soon as possible!

Xue Mengyu didn't expect that even after she offered to pay compensation, the old man still insisted on finding his clansmen to send her back.

After thinking for a moment, she said resentfully, "Fine, you can divorce me if you want."

Since I got engaged to Qi Mingyu, he has spent about seven hundred taels of silver from my family and me.

Give me back the silver, and I'll go back now.

Remember, I want cash, not IOUs or promissory notes.

Old Man Qi was a man of deep cunning; how could he not see that Xue Mengyu was certain that he couldn't come up with the money and would have to swallow this loss in silence?

If he tolerates it, then not only his wife, but he himself will also have a hard time.

In order to control Xue Mengyu in the future, he nodded in agreement.

"Okay! My family is poor and can't afford that much all at once."

But for Mingyu's sake, I will borrow money at interest to repay you.

As for you, my family is definitely taking a break.

However, before returning the money, you must pay the outstanding compensation.

Before I came out, I saw that Mingyu was unconscious. I suppose you used some despicable means to get him to this state.

As for Mingyu's mother, I'll deduct the doctor's fees and medicine costs from the later consultation and medication expenses.

After saying this, Old Man Qi walked past Xue Mengyu and headed towards the village entrance.

Xue Mengyu, who thought that getting the Qi family to repay the money would give her leverage over Old Man Qi, was dumbfounded by what she saw.

She never doubted Old Man Qi's words, knowing that many people in the county town were indeed optimistic about Qi Mingyu.

If it weren't for her cousin Zhong Wenming's introduction, her family would never have been able to get involved with Qi Mingyu.

She panicked when she thought that Old Man Qi would rather borrow money at interest than not divorce her.

She immediately jogged a few steps and stopped the person.

"Father, let's talk this out. I just consummated my marriage with Mingyu yesterday, and you're divorcing me today? That's too much of a bullying."

In this way, I will pay for my mother's medical treatment and medicine.

In addition, I'll give her another twenty taels to make up for it. Is that alright?

As for my husband, I don't know what's wrong with him.

He was perfectly fine last night.

I don't agree with your claims about using despicable methods.

How could I, a virgin, possibly use anything on him?

"In the room, there's still a handkerchief that can prove my innocence; you can't slander me."

Old Qi still wanted to play hard to get, so he didn't agree immediately, but he also didn't continue walking towards the village entrance.

Xue Mengyu had heard her father say since she was a child that 95% of the problems in this world could be solved with money.

If money can't solve the problem, then it must be because not enough has been given.

Thinking of the Qi family's poverty, she spoke in a consultative tone:

"Father, how about this, do you think it's okay?"

I believe my birth charts are incompatible with my mother-in-law's, so we probably won't get along.

From now on, you two won't need to eat with us anymore.

I will have the cook separate the prepared food so that everyone can eat their own.

As compensation, I will give you two taels of silver each month.

However, in that case, you should ask your mother to interfere less in what happens between my husband and me in our room.

I know that your studies are your most important task right now, so don't worry, I won't let him be distracted.
