Chapter 15 Marriage Agreement 3
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Mrs. Gu simply stopped pretending and sat up.
This scared the second son of the Gu family.
He was a little shocked, and when he came to his senses, he asked, "Mom, are you not sick?"
Old Madam Gu rolled her eyes at him and scolded him, "You little heartless boy, I worked so hard to raise you, are you hoping that I'll get sick?"
Gu Haixiong quickly apologized, "Mother, that's not what I meant. I was just too worried when I saw you were sick, so I spoke without restraint."
At this time, the four people who had just fought came over.
Gu Leyou knew that the old lady was pretending to be sick.
This old lady just takes advantage of other people's sympathy, but my father is more realistic and didn't see it.
I should not have listened to my aunt and came here. Now I am in a dilemma whether to leave or not.
At this time, Gu Haixiong called all his children to him and said to his daughter solemnly, "Your grandmother and I have already discussed it. You will get married in three days."
When these words were spoken, the mother and her two children were all shocked.
Lin was the first to object.
Three days was too tight a time frame. It would take at least half a month to a month. In these three days, they would not even have enough time to prepare some things. They couldn't just let their daughter get married without bringing anything. Wouldn't that make her a laughing stock in the whole village?
"Master, this is your own daughter. You are in such a hurry to marry her off just for your mother's sake. Don't you think this is strange?"
Yang knew that her sister-in-law would definitely object to this, so she immediately spoke up for her mother-in-law, "I specially hired someone to look for an auspicious date for your family's matter, and it's three days later. I also spent money to hire someone to look for it. As a mother, I won't cheat my children. What are you worried about?"
"If it wasn't your daughter who was getting married, of course you wouldn't feel bad. If it was Mingyue who was getting married three days later, I don't think you would say that."
For the sake of her daughter, Lin was willing to risk everything and even dared to talk back to her sister-in-law.
At this time, the eldest brother Gu Haicheng noticed the wound on his wife's face, and immediately asked anxiously: "Who beat you like this? Tell me quickly, I will go and settle the score with him."
Only then did Yang start to cry hypocritically.
She wiped away her tears and pointed at the three people in the second brother's family and said, "Please help me, mother. I went to the second brother's house with good intentions and called them all over, but they didn't believe that I was sick and fought with me. The wounds on my face were caused by them. They have to pay for my medical expenses. Now I don't have any medicine to pay for my medical treatment. I can't afford several taels of silver."
Gu Leyou looked at his aunt's face and snorted coldly, "Aunt, don't ask for too much. It was you who scolded us first, and it was you who wanted to hit us that we fought back."
Gu Haixiong certainly believed what his wife and daughter said, but Gu Haicheng still believed what his wife said.
At this time, Mingyue came out from the inner room. He had just heard what Second Aunt said, so he said in a gloomy tone: "Second Aunt, I don't have the courage like my sister to make a fool of myself and make the entire Gu family a laughing stock in Gujia Village."
The old lady of the Gu family has never liked girls, but since her second granddaughter can get married and make so much money, she can be a little biased towards them.
So she criticized her eldest granddaughter in front of her eldest family.
"Mingyue, this is a matter between us adults. You are a girl, so please go inside."
Gu Leyou almost suspected that he had heard it wrong. Old Mrs. Gu, who had always been biased, was actually willing to speak for them today.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong. This is absolutely true.
So, Gu Leyou gave her mother a look.
Lin sat down on the ground and started howling.
No one present expected this.
Old Mrs. Gu was so annoyed by the howling that she quickly called her son.
"Second brother, please take care of your wife. If she keeps crying like that, the neighbors will come to watch the fun again."
Although country people go to bed early, if there is a little noise in someone else's house, they will definitely get up to watch the fun.
So the noise of Lin's crying attracted some villagers who loved to watch the fun.
The village chief was very busy. Not long after he lay down, someone came knocking on his door.
But he didn't even have to think about it, it must be another matter of the Gu family, so he didn't plan to show up this time.
So, he asked his daughter-in-law to come forward, and everyone in the village knew about the fierceness of the coercion.
The village head's wife got up reluctantly, put on her coat, opened the door and walked out. She came to the yard to open the door for them, then she opened her voice and shouted, "Get out of here, don't disturb my sleep."
When everyone heard the loud voice, they knew that the village head's wife was angry and left quickly.
The head of the Gu family.
Lin's howling made them all confused about what to do.
Old Madam Gu was the first to give in. She took the initiative to give in and said, "Second son's wife, what do you want? Three days is not a short time. Do you want another ten days or half a month? Then, when will your daughter's marriage be postponed?"
"Mom, I don't care. These three days are too short. I have worked so hard to raise my daughter, and now she is marrying off so easily. As a mother, my heart aches."
The eldest daughter-in-law was unhappy with what the old lady said. The longer she delayed, the more trouble she would have. If something unexpected happened during this time, she would not get any money.
So, she could wait for three days, but he couldn't wait for thirty days.
Before she could object, Mrs. Gu had already agreed.
"Okay, I'll give you half a month at most. Okay, but you have to ask your second son to write me a letter of guarantee, otherwise if you change your mind again, who will I turn to?"
“…”
Gu Leyou knew that things were not that simple.
They are so anxious to get me married, they must have other purposes, so I can only find an opportunity to get some information out of my aunt.
After Gu Haixiong wrote the letter of guarantee, he signed it and put his fingerprint on it.
Old Mrs. Gu was very satisfied holding the letter of guarantee written by her son.
As long as we have this letter of guarantee, we don't have to worry about them defaulting on their debts.
Even if the hunter takes the deposit and there is not much left for her, it is still better than nothing.
At this time, Lin thought of the betrothal gift. She was about to ask for advice, but Gu Leyou pulled her clothes. If she mentioned this matter at her uncle's house, then everyone would get a share. Their family had been eyeing the money for a long time, but she couldn't let them know that the betrothal gift was not something their family should get, so why bother mentioning it.
Lin immediately closed her mouth again.
She became extremely cautious and only resolved her own family affairs behind closed doors.
