Old Mrs. Wu and Madam Wu came out, pulled Old Mrs. Shi up, and coaxed her in a gentle voice.
Compared with the arrogant attitude he had when he discussed marriage at Shi's family before, his expression was completely different.
At that time, the old lady was still crying, but she was very proud.
Not to mention, although that girl is a bit cruel, she is very good at giving advice.
She was talking to Old Mrs. Wu just now, but the old woman ignored her and looked at her with contempt.
Now I have to beg her instead.
She did not agree immediately, but continued to cry.
"My family really doesn't have one thousand taels of silver. All of my family members can only come up with two taels of silver. Please let our Shi family go."
As he said this, he actually knelt down in front of Old Mrs. Wu.
That damn girl said that the betrothal gift of two taels of silver and the dowry of one thousand taels of silver must be announced by the Wu family in public, and they cannot be dragged back to the Wu family to discuss it, otherwise the Wu family will definitely use threats and bribes to refuse to pay.
Besides, she is still holding her breath. So what if she is an old rural lady? Her son is still a student.
She is the one whose innocence has been tarnished. They are the victims, and she is so self-righteous.
He also deliberately smeared his snot and tears on Old Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu.
This also made Old Lady Wu and Madam Wu feel so disgusted that they wished they could ask the servants to come out and beat this shameless old man to death.
But he couldn't do that in front of everyone. He had to feel aggrieved inside, but on the surface he whispered to coax her, as if he would have a good talk when he got back.
But Old Lady Shi did not fall for Shi Qingluo's advice and was determined to solve the problem at the gate of the Wu family.
This made Old Lady Wu and the other two feel aggrieved and wanted to go crazy, and they kept giving glances to the head of the Wu family and the eldest young master Wu.
Niu and the others started to throw tantrums, even more shameless than the Xiao family, crying out loudly, "Someone come, everyone, come and see how the Wu family is bullying others."
"After we sell the land and the house, how can we survive? We are going to force everyone in our Shi family to death."
Shi Lao San came close to Shi Lao Si and whispered a few words.
Shi Laosi's eyes lit up and he nodded.
Then he walked forward, with a helpless look on his face and a bitter smile, "Mom, it's my fault. I have implicated my family."
"I originally thought that being a woman is not easy. Miss Wu did that to me because she loved me and wanted to marry me. If she was sent to be a nun by the Wu family, or if she committed suicide because she couldn't get over it, I would not be able to get over it."
"So I couldn't bear it, so I asked my family to propose marriage."
"I never thought the Wu family would go so far as to bully others like this."
"If it's just bullying and oppression that forces me, I will endure it."
"But I really can't bear it. Seeing you, at your age, still suffer this injustice and humiliation because of me."
"If the Wu family really wants to force us to take that much money or sell our house and land, we should go to the county magistrate for help."
"Although I'm not a very powerful person, at least I'm still a student."
Old Madam Shi's eyes flashed, and she turned around and grabbed Old Fourth Shi, "Okay, let's go find Master Mo now."
He even loudly emphasized, "Let's go and talk to Magistrate Mo about the flower viewing banquet that day."
"Don't you have something else in your hand? Then show it to Magistrate Mo."
Shi Lao Si supported the old lady and said, "Okay!"
He also deliberately took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and shook it in front of the Wu family. When they saw it, he immediately put it back into his arms.
He still had the medicine that the Wu family had given him. He had deliberately reduced the dosage for Xiao Hanzheng and left some for Wu Xixi.
This was what his third brother asked him to keep, saying it might be useful.
Now it can be used as evidence to threaten the Wu family.
The reason why he revealed it now was because he was afraid that it would be snatched away if he took it out at Wu's house just now.
After all, the county magistrate can find out who bought it by just using this medicine, but he didn't buy it anyway.
The head of the Wu family and Young Master Wu were so angry when they heard the conversation between the two.
They also saw the porcelain bottle that Shi Lao Si took out.
Especially Young Master Wu, his eyes narrowed even more.
After all, he was the one who asked his followers to give this thing to Shi Lao Si. He never expected that this idiot actually had a trick up his sleeve.
If someone from the Shi family was in the Wu family now, they would definitely use all kinds of threats and inducements to appease them.
But they were making a fuss at the door and had to run to the county government office. They were really scared.
Mo Qingling has been investigating the Wu family recently, and this medicine is the evidence that is delivered to their doorstep.
Moreover, Xiao Hanzheng is involved. The teacher behind the other party is still in the county town. If the incident gets out, the Wu family will be in trouble.
The head of the Wu family took a deep breath and whispered to Young Master Wu, "Promise them not to go to the county government office."
Young Master Wu nodded frustratedly, "Okay!"
We should stabilize the Shi family first. Not only will we take away the Wu family's 1,000 taels of silver, but we will also ruin their family's reputation.
Now let these disgusting people be arrogant for a while, and later he will not only make them vomit out what they have eaten, but also see if they have the life to pay it back.
So he walked over, forced a smile, and said to the old lady, "Madam, you misunderstood."
"We are not asking you to give a betrothal gift of 1,000 taels. Instead, we are giving you a dowry of 1,000 taels as compensation."
"You don't have to give a betrothal gift."
A betrothal gift of two taels of silver, who is being insulted?
The old lady was delighted. Not only could she earn one thousand taels, but she even saved two taels.
Just as he was about to agree, Shi Lao San pulled him back.
The old lady looked at her third son in confusion.
Shi Lao San spat out two words to her, "Whip."
Old Mrs. Shi: “…” When she heard these two words, she thought of the bully granddaughter.
So she shuddered. That damn girl wanted to humiliate the Wu family. If she agreed to it, she would definitely suffer the consequences when she returned.
The girl didn't dare to hit her, but she would hit her precious son! So she endured the pain and said to Master Wu: "No, our family is poor but has backbone, how can we not give the betrothal gift?"
"The betrothal gift of two taels of silver must be given, you don't have to be polite."
Young Master Wu: “…” We are not being polite at all. We can’t stand that insult.
He said with some gnashing of teeth: "Our family is not short of two taels of silver."
Old Lady Shi said firmly: "You don't need two taels of silver, but we can't refuse to give it to you. Which family doesn't give a betrothal gift when marrying a daughter-in-law? Even if we buy a refugee to take back as a daughter-in-law, we still need a bag of grain."
"We can't let your daughter be worth less than a bag of food."
These words are not very harmful, but they are extremely insulting.
"So the betrothal gift of two taels of silver must be given. Don't refuse again, otherwise we won't marry you."
Young Master Wu was so angry that he fell backwards: "..." You mean our daughter is only worth two taels of silver? If you don't marry her, who would ask you to marry her?
He was so disgusted by the shamelessness and shamelessness of Old Lady Shi that he wanted to vomit again.
The head of the Wu family coughed lightly, and Young Master Wu resisted the urge to kill the old lady and said, "Okay, if you want to give it to me, just give it to me."
He then said, "Let's go back to the Wu family and discuss the details of the marriage, shall we?"
The old lady nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, then let's go in and talk."
After saying that, she turned around and wiped her tears, and thanked the people present: "Thanks to everyone for speaking out for justice, our family was able to successfully marry a daughter-in-law. Everyone come to the Wu family to attend the wedding banquet in the future!"
Anyway, it doesn't cost them any money.
Young Master Wu: “…” It’s such a waste of talent for this old lady not to go and sing opera.
