Zhao Yingdi's marriage was arranged very quickly. As soon as the money was paid, the Zhao family was anxious to send the person away.
There was no dowry, not even a new set of clothes. Zhao Yingdi was unwilling to leave and kept clinging to the door, but was slapped to the ground by a man.
Everyone was stunned.
Judging from the man’s attire, he should be the groom. He beat someone up on the first day. Zhao Yingdi doesn’t know how she’s going to live from now on.
Some villagers around couldn't bear to watch it anymore and tried to dissuade the man from hitting people on such a happy occasion.
Ma Qiang kicked Zhao Yingdi again before saying to everyone with a fake smile, "I spent ten taels of silver to buy this person, and I can't teach him a lesson?"
He glanced at the shabby Zhao Yingdi and said with a half-smile, "There's nothing good about you staying in the Zhao family. I gave you ten taels of silver, but I couldn't even buy you a new dress for your wedding day."
Zhao Yingdi was frightened by his beating and curled up, not daring to speak.
Everyone understood.
They are just disgusted by the Zhao family's ugly eating habits and are pointing them at them.
But the Zhao family looked indifferent.
"Let's go." The man glanced at Zhao Yingdi sideways. Zhao Yingdi stood up and walked forward step by step with tears in his eyes amid the various gazes of the crowd.
The man was still feeling sorry for the ten taels of silver, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Seeing her so miserable, he felt ashamed and was about to hit her, but someone grabbed his arm.
He turned his head and saw a young man with a cold face. Ma Qiang was a bully in the village and was not afraid of him at all. He asked angrily, "Who are you?"
Chen Yan said coldly: "This is Nanqiao Village, not a place for you to act wildly."
His eyebrows were cold and his eyes were murderous, which made Ma Qiang feel cold in his heart.
"you…"
Before he finished speaking, several young men from the village jumped out and followed Shen Yan, shouting.
"This is our Nanqiao Village, don't act wild here."
"That's right, it's not okay to fight people from our village in our village."
"What a bastard! If he does that again, I'll beat him to death."
Everyone was talking at once. Ma Qiang took a step back, stared at Chen Yan again and again, and said sternly: "I will remember you."
Chen Yan sneered and suddenly raised his hand. Ma Qiang thought he was going to attack him and subconsciously took a step back. Chen Yan just patted Ma Qiang on the shoulder and said, "Get lost."
Ma Qiang was about to leave with Zhao Yingdi when Zhao Yingdi suddenly rushed over: "Chen Yan... please save me... Chen Yan..."
However, Chen Yan ignored him and turned away.
The Zhao family's affairs are decided by the parents and the matchmaker. Even the county magistrate cannot interfere in them.
But everyone's eyes on Chen Yan changed again.
"Chen Yan is a good person..."
"Yes, if anyone in our village is bullied in the future, he will definitely take care of it."
"Chen Yan is reasonable, after all. When has it not been someone who provoked him first, that he fought back?"
"That's right, the Hu family and the Shen family deserve to fight."
This is what the women in the village said.
As for the young men in the village, they all looked at Chen Yan's back with admiration.
"Chen Yan is really amazing."
"That Ma Qiang is such a scoundrel. He doesn't even dare to fart in front of Shen Yan."
“…”
After Zhao Yingdi was taken away, the villagers did not leave, but just stared at the Zhao family.
Old Lady Zhao said proudly, "What are you looking at? If you have the ability, go find a good place for your granddaughter."
"Pooh!"
Zhang Guizhi spat and vowed never to have anything to do with people like the Zhao family again.
The other families with daughters all looked down on the Zhao family, but old Mrs. Zhao didn't know this and kept talking about how rich her son-in-law's family was. They gave ten taels of silver right away, and asked which family in the village had received so much betrothal gift?
Who cares about the money earned from selling a daughter?
Everyone scoffed, but two people were moved.
One is Old Lady Shen and the other is Li Guihua.
Li Guihua felt that Chen Baobao was old enough to get married long ago. If she could get married, not only would it solve a big problem, but she would also get ten taels of silver, and they would be able to overcome the current difficulties.
Recently, the whole family has been squeezed into two small rooms. It is stuffy and hot. Everyone is complaining and quarreling every day.
Li Guihua originally wanted to separate from the family and not live with these burdens, but now, she decided to wait a little longer and go back to discuss it with Shen Qingyun.
Old Lady Shen thought the same as she did, but she had her sights set on Shen Xiaohua.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law each had their own agenda. Li Guihua smiled and said, "Mom, I think the Zhao family is actually doing the right thing. Zhao Yingdi has been eating our family's dry food for so many years, so he should do something for the Zhao family. What do you think, Mom?"
When Old Lady Shen heard this, she was very happy. She never thought that Li Guihua, who had been against her for so many years, would agree with her point of view.
Old Lady Shen smiled, her old face full of calculation: "In that case, I'll ask the matchmaker, but I have to find a good family."
Li Guihua smiled and said, "It's my duty, mother."
Both of them thought that the other understood what they meant. It was rare for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to be so harmonious.
Chen Yan, who was not far away, stared at the two of them for a while, a sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.
His mother is very good, gentle and kind, always tolerant of outsiders, and can only cry when she is bullied...
Chen Yan knew that he shouldn't do that, but he really hated people like that.
Nothing can be protected.
The family’s money, house, and children cannot be protected.
In the past, when she was in the Shen family, no matter what grievances he suffered, she made him endure it.
Chen Yan had endured enough.
He narrowed his eyes and glanced at Su Wei beside him.
He likes passionate women like Su Wei, who are smart and calculating, and can be aggressive when necessary. She can protect this family and also protect him...
He glanced at the burnt remains of the Shen family's house...
