Chapter 213: The Old Woman Was Beaten



Mrs. Cheng saw that the captain, who had been smiling a little bit just now, had a visibly darker face after hearing what Aunt Tian said. She was also shocked.

What is going on? !

Could it be that the couple had no idea what their daughter was doing outside? !

Mrs. Cheng suddenly had a feeling that she probably wouldn't be able to earn the matchmaker's red envelope from the captain's family, and she probably wouldn't even be able to keep the one dollar given by Mrs. Ruan.

"Captain, I really mean well. Every family is happy when talking about marriage. Why do you have such an attitude? Don't you want Xiao'e to get married?!"

At this point, Mrs. Cheng remembered that Tian Xiao'e now worked in a factory and received a salary every month.

If I were not married, the bulk of my salary would definitely have to be handed over to my parents.

Once married, the salary will go with the girl to her husband's family.

The captain and his wife wouldn't disagree for this reason.

The more Mrs. Cheng thought about it, the more she felt that this must be the reason. Her face suddenly became even uglier.

It is said that the captain and his wife are both honest people. Now it seems that most of those people are just flattering the captain.

You see, once this conflicts with one's own interests, one's true nature will be exposed immediately.

The captain looked at the road and saw that most people were not at home as they had all gone to work. But that didn't mean he was willing to discuss his daughter's affairs outside.

He looked at his wife and said, "Hurry up and open the door. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it when we get home."

After he reminded her, Aunt Tian finally reacted.

How could I have forgotten about this?

Xiao'e's affairs cannot be told to outsiders. If someone hears them, who knows how they will be spread.

Oh, why didn't she control herself just now and got angry?

Aunt Tian hurriedly took out the key from her pocket and went in.

The captain stood beside the open door, looked at Mrs. Cheng and said, "Old Mrs. Cheng, you come in too. If you have anything to say, let's go in and talk."

He went in first, not caring whether Mrs. Cheng followed him or not.

When Mrs. Cheng saw the captain and his wife had entered the house, she still wanted to make things happen.

She didn't want to take the money out of her pocket.

After entering the house, Aunt Tian's expression did not improve.

Normally, if someone comes to your home, you always have to pour them a glass of water, no matter what. This is the basic way of entertaining guests.

However, Aunt Tian now had no intention of pouring water for Mrs. Cheng.

The captain took a look and then gritted his teeth and poured a glass of water for Mrs. Cheng.

Mrs. Cheng had said a lot of things when she was outside just now, and she was indeed thirsty now.

She picked up the glass of water and drank it directly.

While drinking, he complained in his heart that although the captain's family was not the richest in the village, it was definitely among the best.

They just gave the guests a glass of cold water without even adding any sugar. They are really stingy.

Seeing that Mrs. Cheng had finished drinking the water, Aunt Tian spoke first, "Our Xiao'e has nothing to do with Ruan Jiabao from the Ruan family. Our family will never agree to their marriage!"

After saying that, she looked at the captain.

The captain received the look from his wife and said, "Yes, our family disagrees."

"Mr. Cheng, you heard me, our family doesn't agree. So, don't talk about marriage anymore." Aunt Tian's attitude was very clear, she just didn't want Mrs. Cheng to continue talking.

I don’t know if I didn’t check the almanac before going out today, how could I have encountered such a bad thing!

When Mrs. Cheng heard this, she began to wonder why a woman was still the head of the captain's family, and the captain even had to look at his wife's mood.

However, this is not the point now. The point is the marriage.

She adjusted her sitting posture, put away her previous expression, and said, "Auntie Tian, you better not say that too early. It would be bad if you get slapped in the face later."

"What do you mean?" Aunt Tian had a feeling that the following words would not be good, but she couldn't help asking.

"What do I mean?" Mrs. Cheng's eyes swept from Aunt Tian's face to the captain's face, and then back to the captain's face, "You'd better ask your Xiao'e. I heard that she is pregnant. If you don't agree, the truth will be revealed after a while. Then, your Xiao'e will suffer."

Mrs. Cheng didn't want to beat around the bush any more. The captain and his wife were so determined, so there was no need to hide the matter any longer.

It would be better to talk about it earlier.

They won’t stop her now, right? If they do, they will just have to watch their daughter die.

After hearing what Mrs. Cheng said, Aunt Tian was stunned for a long while before she realized what she meant.

Suddenly, Auntie Tian stood up from her chair, pointed at Mrs. Cheng and asked, "What did you say? Say it again!"

Mrs. Cheng was a little scared when she saw Aunt Tian like this, but she was just telling the truth. There was nothing to be afraid of. She was not talking nonsense, and the old lady of the Ruan family had tacitly agreed to it.

"What's your attitude? I didn't say anything wrong. Your Xiao'e is pregnant with Ruan's child, and they are proposing marriage, why don't you just agree? If you delay for another two months, this matter will be impossible to resolve. If someone reports it, your Xiao'e will be charged with hooliganism."

In this era, the crime of hooliganism is not limited to men.

Women who have problematic lifestyles and engage in promiscuous relationships will also be convicted of hooliganism.

Moreover, in this era, hooliganism is a very serious crime, and the highest punishment is death penalty, with the person having to eat "peanuts".

This time, even the captain heard it clearly. His face darkened, and if he hadn't had a little bit of rationality restraining him, he would have rushed up and hit the man.

The captain still had a bit of rationality, but after hearing these words, Aunt Tian had long forgotten what rationality was.

She walked to the door, picked up the big broom beside the door, and started hitting Mrs. Cheng.

He yelled, "You are such a dirty, rotten-hearted bastard! How did my Xiao'e offend you that you slander her like this? I will beat you to death! Beat you to death, you despicable and shameless villain! How dare you say anything like that! Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
