This presents a stark contrast.
After a moment of silence, the eldest uncle spoke up, "Father, it seems we can't back out now."
The second brother has already given the betrothal gifts, and all the villagers there know that Qiufeng is engaged to that girl. Everyone has seen it!
If the engagement is broken off, the girl will have no face to live on.
Qiu Feng's nephew will also become a treacherous person, and his reputation will suffer in the future.
"Did you give a bride price?"
This is outrageous!
You gave us the bride price without even asking our opinion?
"Alright, you've already given it all. Go and get the betrothal gifts back, and give the girl ten yuan as compensation."
Grandpa sighed and quickly made a decision.
“Father, giving the bride price means we accept her. If we break off the engagement, we're in the wrong.”
According to custom, we can't ask for the bride price back, otherwise we'll be cursed to death.
The second uncle still wanted to fight for his son.
"If we can't get it all back, how about we take a little less?"
"We'll only get half back."
Grandpa also knows this custom. Since you broke off the engagement yourself, you certainly can't ask for the bride price back.
If the woman breaks off the engagement, the same applies; she should get the betrothal gifts back.
So he knew he was in the wrong and decided to see if he could get half of it back.
"We cannot ask for the bride price back."
Grandpa, no matter what, I will never break off the engagement with Chunyan.
If I did that, would I still be a man?
Grandpa, didn't you always teach us to be upright and honest?
Should we be a person with a conscience?
You also said that everyone has their own responsibilities.
You were indignant on my behalf back then, saying that my previous husband had abandoned me and that they were unethical.
Now, do you also want your grandson to be a faithless and treacherous person?
"Silly child, this is different..."
These are completely different matters; this concerns your life!
Grandpa sighed and shook his head.
"Grandpa, I don't care about all that. I don't care if she's a jinx to her husband or if she's been married before. I don't care about any of that."
I value him as a person, and I don't believe in those things.
I'm determined to marry no matter what, in this lifetime.
Pan Qiufeng immediately expressed his attitude.
"You little rascal, Grandpa is only doing this for your own good."
Grandpa coughed in anger.
"Honey, don't be angry. Qiufeng, you should say less."
Grandma patted Grandpa's back and touched his chest to help him catch his breath.
Seeing that his grandfather was coughing in anger, the fourth cousin didn't dare to say anything too extreme.
"Grandpa, please take care of yourself. Why don't you listen to me for a bit?"
Yu Chengyuan thought it was time for him to go on stage.
