Finally, the team leader, Wang Jianping, sighed and said, "That's fine. In today's new society, free love is important. Child marriages are no longer appropriate. Since neither of you has any such intentions, the team will bear witness for you."
When Wang Chunfang arrived panting after receiving the news, her prodigal daughter had already officially broken off the engagement with the He family with Wang Jianping as a witness.
The betrothal between the two was annulled, and the Jiang family had to return 100 yuan of the 180 yuan betrothal gift from the He family.
When she heard about the betrothal gift, Jiang Yanqiu, who was originally furious, felt a pang in her heart, but she had been put here and with so many eyes watching her, she had no choice but to sign it.
Wang Chunfang held a letter of withdrawal of engagement, her hands shaking as if she had epilepsy. She refused immediately and pointed at the He family's nose and cursed.
"I have a good daughter, and you've wasted all these years on me, and you're just going to let it go like this?! Why are you returning the betrothal gift? How will she get married in the future?"
"And you bastards, you black-hearted bastards, instigated and tricked her into signing this thing! You're bullying us like we're outsiders, right?"
Wang Chunfang was originally from Huagou Village and married to the neighboring Shuiquan Village. Later, she remarried back to Huagou Village with her son and daughter. Because of various past grudges, she was full of resentment and could not tolerate others saying a word about her. She could not bear any loss in her daily life.
The villagers were unhappy because they were scolded for eating a melon.
"Hey, Wang Chunfang, what are you saying? Your girl came here unwillingly and even said she wanted to cancel the engagement. Not only have we all tried to persuade her, even the captain tried to persuade her but to no avail. You can't just keep denying it!"
"Besides, Sister Yanqiu is only eighteen, right? What's the delay? When the He family boy went to the army, Yanqiu was only eight years old. The villagers all knew her background well. If people from all over the village want to propose marriage in the future, how can they defile her? Don't blame others for your own dirty eyes!"
Team leader Wang Jianping also explained, "...the matchmaker is here, and according to the rules, the He family's betrothal gifts must be returned. They are all from the same village. Returning only part of it is also to make the separation amicable. The team will stamp it as a witness, so no one will suffer any loss, right?"
"That's right! Since both sides want to cancel the engagement, then no one should blame the other. Could it be that they saw that Jinshan's legs were injured, so they despised him and wanted to go back on their word, so they wanted to cancel the engagement but not return the betrothal gifts? Oh my, if they do that, they will all be rich!"
Wang Chunfang's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot after being criticized by everyone. She was about to throw a tantrum, but Jiang Yanqiu, whose face was blue and red, held her back tightly. Finally, she left angrily.
Everyone who had originally come to join in the fun and watch the happy event finally had enough of the show. After comforting He Jinshan with a few words, they shook their heads in satisfaction and left.
"Son! You're so confused! With your legs...how are you going to find a wife in the future?"
A good marriage was cancelled just like that. Zhang Fengying, who was gentle in nature, was at a loss as to what to do. She kept wiping away tears when she left. It would be difficult to discuss marriage for her son in his current condition!
In a blink of an eye, all the people left, and the small shabby hut that was almost crowded to the point of being empty again.
He Jinshan leaned forward with his hands, turned his body towards the empty window on the wall, and tapped the window sill with his fingers.
After a while, half of a little head with a pigtail cautiously poked out.
With his hands on the windowsill, he looked at people with his big eyes and asked in a very soft voice, "Are you all gone?"
Like a little hamster.
He Jinshan lowered his eyes and stared at the other person without saying a word.
Jiang Henian blinked, raised his hands and waved, then cleverly added a greeting: "Hi~Brother-in-law~"
He Jinshan raised his eyebrows, pursed his thin lips, and leaned forward:
"So... you were kissing and molesting your brother-in-law just now?"
Jiang Henian: “……!!!!”
The little hamster's face turned red instantly and he turned around and ran away.
Me! Jiang Henian! I'm going to the woods behind the mountain right now! I'm going to find a tree and hang myself!!!
"ah!"
It was already dark, and the blind Jiang Henian had just taken two steps when he stepped on a stone and fell.
