He Liang'er is different from Brother Qing.

Brother Qing was willing to pay for Zhao Chuchu, even if Zhao Chuchu resolutely married her husband and didn't want him. He had already tried to find a way to help her when he learned that Zhao Chuchu was about to get into trouble, but Liang'er wouldn't do that.

Liang'er thinks he is a petty person. Apart from Qing'er who has always treated him like a brother and taken good care of him, no one is worthy of his willing and selfless dedication.

There is a hint of coldness in Liang'er's bones. It is very difficult to get into the heart of such a person.

Upon learning that the letter had been delivered to the Zhao family, Qing'er breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the worry that had been hanging in her heart.

Liang'er looked at her brother Qing like this, her lips moved, and she suppressed the words "useless" for a long time before she said it.

After a moment's silence, Liang'er asked, "Brother Qing, since you liked Zhao Chuchu at the beginning, why didn't you respond to her? Maybe, maybe if you responded to her, you could..." After all, during that time, Zhao Chuchu was very fanatical in pursuing Brother Qing.

With her back to him, Qing'er was about to leave and was stunned for a moment. Her curled eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyelids, and her round white fingertips unconsciously clenched the corner of her clothes. After a while, he spoke softly, as if explaining the facts, but also as if mocking himself.

"Maybe it's because of low self-esteem."

He opened the door and walked away. Liang'er couldn't see the expression on his face, but she felt that his figure was thin and lonely. Just one glance at him made her heart ache.

Because of inferiority complex, I hide my feelings deep in my heart.

Because of inferiority complex, I dare not respond.

Because of my low self-esteem, I could only watch from afar. Seeing her happy face was enough, and that was enough for me...

The next day, people from Linjia Village came to the Zhao family one after another to apologize.

Yesterday, Lin Dacui and others came to Zhao's house to cause trouble. The villagers of Zhaojia Village were furious, and the village chief led everyone to Linjia Village to seek justice.

Now, there is a result.

The village chief of Linjia Village apologized for his crime, and the families of Lin Dacui and others came to pay the "ransom" and apologized repeatedly before they were allowed to take the people back.

Of course, some people also said that Zhao Chuchu was too deceptive and asked for such a huge "ransom" for one person. However, those who wanted to make trouble or cheat were suppressed by Zhao Chuchu's powerful force. Zhao Chuchu also proposed that if the ransom was not paid, she would report to the police.

"Reporting to the police" is not a good thing in the countryside, especially since Lin Dacui and others have been bullying men and women. If you really report to the police, you will definitely go to jail.

Your own children can be lazy and live a life of idleness, but they cannot go to jail. If there is a brother or sister in the family who goes to jail, how can the other brothers and sisters get married?

In ancient times, in rural areas, the most important thing in marriage was reputation.

It's not just the reputation of the person getting married, but also the reputation of his or her family.

They don't want to drag down the other children in the family because of this good-for-nothing brat.

So, they could only accept their bad luck and spend money to take the person back.

Weighing the heavy silver in her hand and looking at the backs of those gangsters being dragged back by their parents by their ears, Zhao Chuchu just wanted to say with a smile: Come again next time when you have time.

Zhao Chuchu gave all the money to Zhang Xiuyuan for safekeeping. Yuan'er is her daughter-in-law, and it is only right that the family finances be managed by her.

The place they live in is an old house, even a dilapidated one. They plan to build a new house when they have saved enough money.

The next night, the night was pitch black and the moonlight was dim, illuminating two figures sneaking towards the Zhao family's fields.
