Xiao Yu never blamed his brother.
After all, the suggestion Xiao Qingshan made back then was very good, but he didn't expect that people's hearts are easily changed.
"My dear, it's not your fault that your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. We, the elders, can only worry for a short time, not for a lifetime!"
"Sister-in-law Song, I know why you came here today. You asked to cancel the engagement, and I accept it!"
"But let's be frank. I know your son is a bitch, but you're such a troublemaker! Anyone who marries into your family will have a miserable life!"
"You can cancel the engagement, but you have to pay back the money our family lent you over the years! I often come to your house to help you with work, so just treat this as if I was blind. I'll pay the price for my mistakes!"
Xiao Yu speaks very openly.
"Back then, you were the one who took the initiative to ask me for the money, and I accepted my eldest brother's agreement. Now you want to regret it, and I can let you do it. I have to get that money back as a dowry for my daughter Ru'er!"
Mother Song knew that she was being humiliated today, but she didn't care.
"Well...Second Brother Xiao, I know we're not doing the right thing, but Song Yuan is already in high school. If he finds a job, he'll definitely go to work."
"He can't take his wife with him when he goes to work, and I'm worried about leaving her in the city. He could leave her in the countryside and let me, her mother, take care of her. But my health isn't good enough, and I'm afraid I can't take care of your girl."
"I know my family has borrowed a lot of money from you, but I can't ignore my son's livelihood for the rest of his life. Once he starts working, I can pay you back some every month until the money is paid off!"
Xiao Yu sneered.
"After all this talk, you just don't have money, right?"
"Alright, for the sake of being from the same hometown, please sign an IOU and pay me back every month when your son makes money!"
Next, Xiao Yu began to reconcile accounts with others.
I wrote down all the small changes, which totaled 208 yuan.
This is a considerable amount of money.
In this family with only two working people and a child who is lagging behind, these 200 yuan seem so rare.
This money is probably more than what you can use to support your own daughter.
Each of these items was calculated very clearly, and some that I couldn't remember were just counted as they were.
Song Yuan did not object to any of the transactions.
Finally, he wrote an IOU with his own hands, signed his name, pressed his fingerprints on it and handed it to Xiao Yu.
Afterwards, with several people as witnesses, the marriage was called off.
Mother Song breathed a sigh of relief.
Song Yuan looked at the other party, Xiao Ru, who was reading a book with great interest.
Ru'er probably can't remember what this incident today means, right?
From now on, when people talk about Ru'er, they will never say that she is Song Yuan's fiancée.
Song Yuan had tears in his eyes. This turn of his head was bidding farewell to his youth and his happiness.
Xiao Qingshan also felt uncomfortable watching this.
His niece, on the other hand, sat there as if nothing had happened, and had no idea what the broken engagement had to do with her.
On the other hand, Song Yuan seems to be a sincere person.
Otherwise, the marriage would have been called off, so there would be no need to pretend like this.
Suddenly a young man started to shed tears.
Looking at his niece with such reluctance in his eyes.
It’s a pity that Xiao Rugen didn’t notice it and was completely immersed in the book in his hand.
Wang Hua kept a stern face and said nothing from beginning to end, not even pouring tea for the visitor.
This is enough to show her attitude.
Xie Xuan and Lu Zheng sat aside.
Their presence did not arouse anyone's suspicion, and they simply thought that the two educated youth were living together in this family.
So it's a good idea to stay here after dinner.
There were still some unwilling women outside, eating melons in the cold wind.
