Seeing that Ma Xiulan disagreed, he sent Zhao Xingmin back to his room.
Old Lady Wang was reluctant to give such a high betrothal gift and was anxious. She threatened Ma Xiulan:
"If you don't agree, I'll kick you out of the house. My Zhao family doesn't want such a disobedient daughter-in-law. I'll marry an obedient one."
Every time these words were spoken, Ma Xiu Lan would obediently do as she was told, even if she was unwilling to do so.
Because Ma Xiulan grew up under the care of her stepmother, she knew best the methods her stepmother used to torture people, so she was afraid of divorce.
He threatened to marry another woman, but she had to insist on it for the sake of her child.
Every time she was threatened like this, she gave in.
So she didn't expect it to fail this time.
Ma Xiulan looked indifferent:
"Divorce is divorce, and my daughter won't marry me even if we get divorced."
Zhao Youfu quickly advised:
"Sister-in-law, Aunt Zhang really values our family. This betrothal gift is unique in our compound.
Moreover, although the young man from the Zhang family already has a son, this is also a good thing. If he marries her, there will be someone to take care of her and raise her like a biological child.
Moreover, Guojie is the youngest son, and all the daily housework is done by his four sisters-in-law.
If you marry him, you will only enjoy happiness."
Old Lady Wang made the final decision: "That's right. You still don't agree to such a good offer? I'm the boss. I'll let Xingmin go to the Zhang family today."
Ma Xiulan wanted to slap Old Lady Wang, but she thought to herself, "Hold back, Xingmin is not married yet."
He couldn't hit Old Lady Wang in front of everyone, as it would affect Xingmin's future marriage plans.
But she could hit her youngest son, whom she loved the most, so she kicked Zhao Youfu.
"Let your mother enjoy this blessing. Since you two agree to this marriage, and you are the man and cannot marry, then let your mother marry.
It just so happens that the widow is getting married for the second time and has a child there, but my mother can't have children at her age.
There is also a mother-in-law and four sisters-in-law who take care of my paralyzed mother.
His mother doesn't mind that he is young, so he naturally won't mind that his mother is older.
If you marry off your widowed mother, you won’t have to worry about supporting her in her old age.”
When Old Lady Wang and Zhang Guojie heard this, they felt insulted. Zhao Youfu stopped Zhang Guojie and prevented him from taking action.
But Zhang's mother had had enough.
Ma Xiulan actually dared to despise her beloved son like this.
She started to scratch Ma Xiu Lan's face. Ma Xiu Lan was tall, so she grabbed her hair.
She was taken to where Old Lady Wang was and thrown to the ground. She didn't believe that Old Lady Wang wouldn't reveal her true identity in such a chaotic situation.
Unexpectedly, when Zhang Guojie saw that Zhang's mother was in trouble, he punched Ma Xiu Lan.
Ma Xiu Lan barely managed to escape, but it was because she had sent her granddaughter to learn Taekwondo in her previous life that she secretly learned a few moves.
“Hit someone!
If you can't get along, then hit me!"
Zhao Xingmin, who had been secretly listening to the noise outside, rushed out immediately to protect Ma Xiulan.
Zhao Xingye saw that his mother was being bullied at home. If he didn't take action, he would definitely be scolded behind his back for being unfilial.
So he opened it with Zhang Guojie.
A stranger came into the yard and entered the Zhao family early in the morning. Coupled with the noise made by the Zhao family last night, other families were curious and pricked up their ears to listen to the Zhao family's voice.
I heard Ma Xiulan shouting.
He immediately rushed to the door of Zhao's house.
Help Ma Xiu Lan deal with Zhang's mother and Zhang Guojie.
"You bully people in our compound. Do you really think there's no one in our compound?"
Seeing so many people around, Zhang's mother knew that she and her son were going to suffer, so she quickly grabbed Zhang Guojie.
Her scalp was so painful from being pulled that it burned. Ma Xiulan and the bitch Zhao Xingmin beat her together, and she ended up like this.
Even if her son was willing, she didn't want this daughter-in-law.
Old Lady Wang and Zhao Youfu drove away their neighbors:
"This is our own family matter. Everyone should go home as soon as possible."
There is little entertainment these days, and when someone's family has something new, the neighbors who come to join in the fun can't be driven away.
It’s not something that can be driven away by just a few words from Old Lady Wang and Zhao Youfu.
Ma Xiulan cried to everyone:
"If I don't marry my daughter to their family, they will take action."
Niu Chunhua next door pouted:
"If I don't marry my daughter to you, you'll start a fight with others. Who would dare to marry their daughter to you?"
Zhang's mother cursed:
"You still look down on my son, but I don't think your daughter who steals at home can get married?
The supply and marketing cooperative still dares to ask her to work, and they are not afraid of having their things stolen. I will go to the supply and marketing cooperative to report it."
Some of the neighbors who gathered together believed in Zhao Xingmin, after all, they had watched him grow up.
There are also people who don't believe Zhao Xingmin. Could it be possible that Old Lady Wang, his grandmother, could wrongly accuse Zhao Xingmin?
Even if Old Lady Wang was wronged, Zhao Yang would still say that it was Zhao Xingmin who stole it.
You should know that Chen Zhenzhen loves to go out and chat. She didn't work in the past few years, but she didn't stay at home to take care of the children either.
Zhao Yang was raised by his aunt Zhao Xingmin.
Besides, children don't lie.
So most people believe that Zhao Xingmin stole something.
There was wariness and contempt in the look he gave Zhao Xingmin.
Zhao Xingmin saw so many people's eyes focused on her. She straightened her chest and spoke in the loudest voice she had ever spoken:
"I never stole anything from the house."
Ma Xiulan glanced at Old Lady Wang and vowed:
"I don't know which heartless bastard framed my daughter Xingmin. I guarantee with my life that my daughter is a clean person. Go ahead and report her."
The attitudes of Zhao Xingmin and Ma Xiu Lan made some people suspicious, and they looked at Old Lady Wang with suspicion.
Old Lady Wang immediately cursed: "I'm already this old, and you still wrongly accuse a little girl."
