Chapter 46: Putting the blame on someone
When he heard that his grandmother wanted to cancel the engagement, he didn't even try to resist.
I agreed immediately.
"Mom, I'll come along too. My mom told me that one more person will make the team stronger. Besides, I'm half a Zhoujia villager. If the head of Zhoujia village favors his family, I can also say a word or two to help you."
Sun Fu also picked up a stick of firewood.
He said this with great momentum.
Although the two companies are not at odds.
But that's right.
Externally, they are still united.
Since his daughter-in-law's family was cheated, he naturally had to help.
"Okay, then you follow me. Ah Ji and Ah Xiang, you two should stay at home with your sister and stay home. Don't run around."
After giving instructions to her two grandsons, Zhang Jinlan prepared to set off.
"Grandma, I want to go too, and bring Fubao with me—"
Jiang Fubao felt very uneasy.
She changed from her usual obedient behavior, rushed to her grandmother, hugged her legs and refused to let go.
"Fubao, what's wrong with you today? Something important happened at home, don't mess around! Stay home, we'll be back soon."
Zhang Yanzi quickly pulled her hand away.
"No, no, I want to go, grandma, I want to go." Jiang Fubao felt more and more uneasy. She had a premonition that something would happen soon.
Therefore, she used all her strength and did not let go.
Zhang Yanzi didn't dare to hurt her daughter.
I can only stand by and worry.
"Okay, take Fubao with you, Yan Zi, hold her tight and follow behind."
Jiang Shoujia rarely spoke.
He knew that his daughter-in-law would rush to the front and argue with others, so he asked his younger daughter-in-law to hold his granddaughter, which would be safer and avoid getting hurt.
"Fubao, be good in a moment. Don't be afraid if grandma quarrels with someone."
Zhang Jinlan touched the back of her granddaughter's head.
A kind face.
"Yes! Fubao must be good!"
Jiang Fubao nodded heavily.
Soon, the group left Jiangjia Village.
The two poor brothers Jixiang were left at home to look after the house.
Once people get angry.
Walking is faster.
In less than two quarters of an hour, they arrived at Zhoujia Village.
The Jiang family went straight to Zhou Chen's house.
I happened to see them going out, apparently going to the fields to do farm work.
"Stop right there, you bunch of bastards! Aunt Zhou, your granddaughter is clearly having an affair with someone, yet she pretends to be your grandson who is anxious to get married to deceive my family. If I hadn't found out, I'm afraid I would have been deceived by your family! Today, our Jiang family is here to cancel the engagement. If you don't want to lose face in the village, return the betrothal money immediately!"
Zhang Jinlan's voice was not loud.
Although she was angry that the Zhou family had deceived her.
But if a girl loses her reputation, her life will be ruined.
She still wanted to resolve the matter without making things too awkward.
If the Zhou family knew what was going on, they would return the betrothal money immediately.
She just kept the matter to herself.
However, Matchmaker Zhou will not let it go.
The gossip in a village is known to everyone, so how could a matchmaker who hears everything from everywhere not know about it?
No one would believe that!
After canceling the engagement with the Zhou family, she went to the matchmaker Zhou's house to make trouble.
"What nonsense are you talking about? My granddaughter is innocent. How could she be having an affair with someone? Show us the evidence! I don't know where you heard such gossip. You are so cowardly that you dare to come and question us. Do you want to cancel the engagement? No way!"
When Zhou Chen saw the Jiang family coming to make trouble, her eyes were a little evasive.
But it turned out that the Jiang family had no evidence.
She retorted with full of confidence.
"Okay, since you are not afraid of making a big fuss, I will not care about anything today. Someone, come here, the granddaughter of the Zhou family is cheating on her. She is a good girl, but she is having an affair with a man in the town. Who knows what she has done? She even dared to deceive my family, saying that her grandson is in a hurry to get married. I think she just wants to cheat my Jiang family out of the two taels of betrothal money!
You don't even have a dowry, but you pretend to love your granddaughter. Bah! You old woman, you are full of bad intentions! You rotten-hearted dog, if you don't return the betrothal money today, I will never forgive your Zhou family. Someone come quickly, the granddaughter of the Zhou family is cheating on you——"
Zhang Jinlan didn't recognize Zhou Chen when she saw her.
She hardened her heart.
He put his hands on his hips and shouted at the top of his voice.
Because Zhou's home is located in the middle of the village.
Zhang Jinlan's voice is particularly penetrating, as if she were using a modern speaker.
From the entrance to the end of the village.
The sound was carried everywhere by the wind.
Many people came running from their homes and fields to watch the excitement.
Matchmaker Zhou also came.
"Hey, what's the matter? Why are you quarreling right after we got engaged? Let's talk it out nicely."
Matchmaker Zhou quickly stood in the middle to mediate.
She was confused and didn't know what was going on.
"Get out of my way. I haven't bothered you yet. Tell me, how has my Jiang family wronged you? You introduced such a wicked family to my grandson. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Zhang Jinlan's saliva sprayed all over Matchmaker Zhou's face.
Before Matchmaker Zhou could retort.
The two families continued to curse each other.
A group of villagers from Zhoujia Village stood outside.
Zhou Chen thought to herself that this was not good.
She didn't expect Zhang Jinlan to have such a loud voice.
The whole village came.
"Oh, I don't want to live anymore. My body was ruined by someone in vain, and now he has turned his back on me. I might as well hang myself at the door of my house—"
Sudden.
Zhou Yuanyuan cried out in a shrill voice.
The Jiang family was stunned and cried.
Everyone stood still and turned to look at her.
Jiang Fubao was held in her mother's arms, her heart beating faster and faster.
She always felt that this Zhou Yuanyuan was planning something big.
"Jiang Tongjin, you will not live a good life! That day, matchmaker Zhou brought us to your house. You took advantage of the fact that no one was in the yard and forced me to marry you. You lied to me and said that we would get married as soon as possible and you would treat me well. Now, you want to cancel the engagement. How do you want me to live?"
Zhou Yuanyuan's tears burst out instantly.
Her words shocked everyone present.
"You're talking nonsense! When did I force you? We only said ten sentences in the yard. What can we do in such a short time? I didn't even touch you. You have to be more credible when you lie. Who can believe these words?"
Jiang Tongjin's face turned red with anger.
"You also know that you are just that capable. I haven't given up on you, but you still have the nerve to cancel the engagement. You don't want to give me a way out. If you want to cancel the engagement, just come to my house and talk it over quietly. Why do you have to make a scene at my doorstep?
You just want to force me to die! So that I can shut my mouth! No one in the world will know about the heartless things you have done! Grandma, I am an unfilial granddaughter. Today, I have been forced into this state by this evil man. I can’t live anymore. I will be filial to you in the next life.”
Zhou Yuanyuan wiped away tears.
She ran straight into the wall at the entrance of her house.
But the speed is neither fast nor slow.
She happened to be caught by her own mother.
"My daughter, why is your life so miserable? You've been abused before you even got married, and you gave your body for nothing. But he wants to cancel the engagement, and now he wants to kill you. If you die, how can I live? My dear daughter, even if I die, I will report it to the government and ask the officials to make the decision for you!"
