Chapter 851 The Yu Family is angry
Eight taels of silver is not a small sum.
How many families work hard for a year and still can’t save up eight taels of silver.
Niu nodded in agreement.
This matter should be dealt with sooner rather than later.
The next day, Niu hurried out to find a matchmaker.
When Zhang saw her leaving the house, she knew what she was going to do and sneered silently.
The matchmaker accepted Niu's bribe, and although she felt that the matter was a bit mysterious, she still agreed to go on the trip for Niu.
As expected, the Yu family was furious.
"What does the Shao family mean by this? Are they kidding us? How can marriage be a joke? The engagement letter has been exchanged, and the horoscopes have been matched long ago, yet they are saying that the horoscopes are incompatible! I think they are too careless and don't think highly of our family!"
"We in the Yu family are not so easy to bully! You want to cancel the engagement? No way. Otherwise, I will tell others about it and ask them to judge whose fault it is."
"That's right, there is no room for negotiation on this matter!"
The Yu family was indeed very happy that Shao Yunduan knew about Yuan. Although Shao Meiling was not Shao Yunduan's biological sister, she was her cousin with the same grandfather.
If you really encounter a problem and ask him for help, can he just sit there and watch without helping?
Moreover, it would be glorious to tell others about such a marriage.
And the Yan family's workshop is so prosperous and has great business! When we become in-laws, when that workshop recruits people, my family will definitely be chosen, right?
It's a great thing to earn seven or eight hundred taels of silver a month and the work is not tiring.
The Shao family also built a school in Shaoding Village. If their children want to study there in the future, can they charge money? These are all visible benefits!
Only a fool would give up!
Moreover, the Shao family wanted to cancel the engagement at this time, which clearly showed that they looked down on their family. How could it be so easy?
No one can swallow this.
The matchmaker felt that she was in the wrong in the first place, and she didn't dare to argue with the Yu family, so she soon left in shame.
The Yu family did not look at her well, and she was also scolded by the angry Yu family members. The matchmaker was also a little angry, and when she replied to Mrs. Niu, she couldn't help but exaggerate a few words.
Niu got angry when she heard this, and slammed the table and cursed: "This Yu family is really not a good family! They are arrogant and unreasonable! How can we marry into such a family? If my daughter Meiling marries into them, she will definitely be wronged. No, this marriage must not happen!"
It seemed that Niu had found a legitimate reason.
She simply went to Yu's house in person.
What nice words can Niu say?
Therefore, even though she expressed her willingness to compensate ten taels of silver, she still angered the Yu family, and they had a quarrel and parted unhappily.
The Yu family was the victim, and they were afraid that Niu would go back and ask Mr. Shao to put pressure on them, in which case they would be unable to do anything.
So they took this opportunity to complain and express their grievances, causing everyone who heard it to be shocked and express great sympathy.
The Shao family is too snobbish! They don't bully people like this.
The engagement letter has been changed, but you want to cancel the engagement for no reason.
Soon many people in Shaoding Village knew about this matter, and word spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, until everyone knew about it.
Fang was so angry that she cursed: "The couple in the second house are really blinded by greed! How could they do such a wicked thing! They don't care about the Yu family, nor the reputation of their own daughter!"
Qiao Xuan also sighed.
With a reputation of being snobbish, who among the good families would be willing to marry into their family?
Even if there were a wealthy family willing to marry into the family, they would definitely have bad intentions. Shao Meiling might suffer a lot of grievances if she married into the family.
