Chapter 87 This marriage cannot be cancelled
"Pay back the money!" Old Lady Cen was furious and gave Gao a death order, "If you don't pay back the thirty taels of silver, don't even think about being a daughter-in-law of our Cen family anymore!"
“…”
Gao knew that if she didn't agree to this matter, Old Lady Cen would just continue to pester her.
But, thirty taels of silver!
She shook her teeth and thought to herself that when the old woman was too old to move, she would see how she would deal with her!
It is not impossible to get thirty taels of silver by asking my son for help.
The most important thing now is to get through this level first.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry. I will definitely get back the money that Beiyang lost for you! It was my fault this time. No matter how dad and mom want to punish me, I won't say a word." Gao gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and admitted her mistake sincerely.
"Well, it's good that you know it! Don't drag it on! Return it quickly! The family has been spending too much recently and we can barely make ends meet!" Old Mrs. Cen was quite satisfied with her attitude of admitting her mistakes. After saying these two sentences, she didn't pursue the matter any further.
When Yu saw that the old woman had let Gao go, she was so angry that she couldn't eat.
Cen Yingze looked indifferent, feeling somewhat regretful that he could not watch the fun, so he picked up his chopsticks and continued eating.
The old Cen family suddenly became quiet, as if the dispute just now had never existed.
But at this moment, Cen Dahai suddenly spoke and broke the peace.
"Sister-in-law should return the silver to Wei Zan instead of keeping it at home," said Cen Dahai.
"What did you say?" Old Mrs. Cen thought she had misheard and looked at him in confusion.
"And the twenty-five taels of silver that my parents accepted from Wei Zan before should also be returned to Wei Zan." Cen Dahai said again.
"I think you've been kicked in the head by a donkey! Why should I return the money?" Old Mrs. Cen cursed loudly, and her look of disgust was genuine.
"Wei Zan is not a good man. I can't let Xiaoyan marry him. This marriage must be cancelled!" Cen Dahai ignored the piercing gaze and answered calmly and firmly.
When he said this, Cen Yan and Li were both shocked.
The mother and daughter looked at each other.
They didn't expect that Cen Dahai would agree to cancel the engagement.
Before this, they had mentioned this matter many times, but Cen Dahai had never responded.
After confirming that she had heard correctly, Old Lady Cen said sarcastically, "Bah! Wei Zan is not a good man, so what do you think Cen Yan is? This marriage cannot be cancelled!"
"Mom, how can you say that about Cen Yan?" Cen Dahai frowned when he heard it.
"What's wrong with me saying that? She is not a good person! This little bitch has been causing a lot of trouble recently! I only scolded her, that's the lightest thing!" Old Mrs. Cen started cursing again.
"You're going too far! Xiaoyan wasn't the one who caused the incident at all!" Mrs. Li was also dissatisfied.
"Well, you two are teaming up to disobey an old woman like me, aren't you? Old man, look, these are your good son and daughter-in-law! Now they dare to talk back to me! They talk back to me every time I say something, and I can't control them anymore! You come out and administer justice!" Old Mrs. Cen began to act pitiful in front of Old Man Cen.
Old Man Cen frowned and said nothing.
Just because he didn't say anything didn't mean that others wouldn't help Mrs. Cen.
"That's right, second brother, sister-in-law, how could you two disobey mother? Second brother, mother worked so hard to raise you and even married you two wives! She suffered a lot for you, but how can you say that to the little wild goose just because mother said a few words to it?" Cen Dajiang immediately reprimanded with a serious face.
"That's right, second brother, sister-in-law, you two shouldn't have done anything right! Also, even if I was wrong in arranging this marriage and took another thirty taels of silver from Wei Zan, Wei Zan was willing to spend so much silver to marry Xiaoyan, which shows how much he likes and values Xiaoyan. This is a good marriage that I couldn't ask for! Second brother, this is obviously a great marriage, how can you say you want to cancel the engagement?!" Gao also said.
Now she feels upset whenever she sees Cen Yan.
But as long as Cen Yan gets married, she will be able to breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, she had suffered two losses recently, and both times had some vague connection with Cen Yan.
She was certain that Cen Yan was behind this!
"Wei Zan's family is not a wealthy one, and his mother's mind is sometimes clear and sometimes crazy. Where did he get so much silver? What if the silver was stolen? If someone finds out, Xiaoyan will be implicated!" Li retorted.
"Who said the silver was stolen?" Gao said in a ridiculous tone, "Wei Zan's grandfather was a wealthy man from another county. Didn't that Ji guy bring his belongings to the Wei family? Since then, the Wei family has been rich! Otherwise, do you think that fifty-five taels of silver, even the head of the village, can't afford to marry a daughter-in-law!"
Her words left Li at a loss as to how to respond.
Cen Yan heard this and curled up the corner of his mouth with a hint of sarcasm.
Ji Yunzhan originally brought all the belongings of the Ji family to seek refuge with the Wei family, and Wei Zan indeed took all those belongings for himself, and lived a good life of eating and drinking for a few days.
But the question is, who is Wei Zan’s father?
Then he is a gambler!
The reason why Wei Zan was willing to spend so much money to marry her was because he knew that the family's money was about to be squandered by his father.
Before that, he had to find himself a wife.
But in this village, who would be willing to marry their daughter to a man whose mother is a lunatic and whose father is a gambler?
That is a bottomless pit that can never be filled!
Wei Zan is a smart guy.
He knew that it would be difficult for someone like him to find a wife, so he was prepared to spend a lot of money.
He wants to pick a daughter-in-law who is worth the money.
So, she was chosen.
An honest man who is not favored in his mother's family and works all day.
In her previous life, she had indeed done what Wei Zan had hoped, and she had not had a single day of rest since her marriage.
But in this life?
"I will never get married! Grandpa and grandma should return the engagement money as soon as possible! I will not marry a man who has an affair with my cousin, no matter how much money he has! Who knows if after we get married, he will secretly have an affair with Cen Shuang?" Cen Yan said with a sarcastic tone and very firmly.
"Impossible!" Old Lady Cen also refused firmly, "I can't return even a penny of that money!"
"Grandma, it's okay not to return the money."
Cen Yan paused and glanced at Yu. "Didn't my second sister cry and make a fuss about marrying Wei Zan? Wouldn't it be better to marry my second sister to him when the time comes?"
Yu immediately gave him a fierce look, looking at him viciously!
