Chen Weiguo got angry, and the people around him whispered and pointed at the Liu family and Liu Hongxia.
Liu Hongxia, who was already crying, cried even harder now, and looked like she was about to faint.
"Alright, alright, everyone, let's all go home. What time is it? Aren't you going home to cook? Can watching the show feed you?"
Seeing this, Sheng Xiping thought, "Well, let's get out of here quickly. If this continues, Liu Hongxia might have a moment of despair and try to hang herself, which would be a terrible tragedy."
"Yes, yes, let's hurry home. Aren't you cold outside in this freezing weather?"
Wang Jianshe, Pan Fusheng, and Gao Haining and Zhang Zhijun, who rushed over after hearing the news, all helped to disperse the crowd.
Seeing that the Chen family had left, and that it wasn't interesting to leave only the Liu family, everyone gradually left as well.
Only the Liu family members remained in the courtyard, their faces ashen with anger, unsure of what to do.
"I told you a long time ago, don't get involved with that Chen family boy. Their family isn't well-off, but you wouldn't listen and insisted on dating him."
"Is this a disaster? You've really embarrassed yourself! Where do you expect us to put our faces now? What good marriage prospects will you have left in the future?"
Liu Daming's wife turned around and saw her daughter still crying. She was so angry that she reached out and pinched her daughter.
"If you hadn't insisted on making those demands and asking for such a huge dowry, would Weiguo have broken off the relationship with me?"
Liu Hongxia cried until her voice was hoarse, and she spoke with sobs.
"Nonsense, what family would raise such a big daughter and just give her away for free without asking for a single penny?"
Do you know how hard it was for us to raise you? Asking for 500 yuan isn't for your own good.
They paid a high price to marry their daughter-in-law, so they have to treat her with utmost care and respect. How could they dare to bully her?
If you don't ask them for a single penny, won't they think you're worthless because you're paying them, and then they'll exploit you to death?
"It's for your own good, you know? You've got a head on your shoulders all day long, I don't know what you're thinking, you're always siding with outsiders."
Liu's wife was furious and had nowhere to vent her anger, so she picked up a broom and was about to hit Liu Hongxia.
When Liu Hongxia's younger sisters, Liu Hongmei and Liu Hongling, saw this, one stepped forward to stop her, and the other quickly pulled her sister into the house, managing to prevent the broom handle from falling on Liu Hongxia.
Liu Daming and his wife weren't done yet; they continued cursing and swearing as they followed them into the house.
Meanwhile, the Chen family of three, accompanied by Sheng Xiping and others, also returned to the Chen family home.
"Boss, now you know who the Liu family is, right? Would you dare to marry into their family?"
"If you and Liu Hongxia really get together, can you handle that unreasonable mother-in-law? Will you have a good life afterward?"
After entering the room, Xu Xiuxiang couldn't help but chatter with Chen Weiguo again.
"Mom, I understand. Don't worry, I promise I won't have anything to do with Liu Hongxia anymore from now on." Chen Weiguo sighed.
He used to think that marriage was a matter between two people, and that as long as he and Liu Hongxia had a good relationship and were of one mind, that would be enough.
But now it seems that's not the case at all. With the Liu family interfering, even if he marries Liu Hongxia, there will be no peace and quiet.
"Chen Weiguo, you said it yourself. A real man's word is his bond. You can't go back on your word."
Chen Shiliang's expression was still not good, and his tone was quite aggressive.
"We at least pee standing up, so let's not do things that make people look down on us."
If you continue to associate with that girl from the Liu family, don't blame me for throwing you out with this big stick and disowning you as my son.
Chen Shiliang was truly annoyed by the Liu family, and he didn't give his son a kind look either.
"Dad, don't worry, I promise I'll keep my word."
Now that things have escalated to this point, even if Chen Weiguo still feels reluctant to part with Liu Hongxia, he would never have any further contact with her.
From now on, men and women will marry and have nothing to do with each other; let each live their own lives.
Upon seeing this, Sheng Xiping and the others quickly offered kind words and tried to persuade Chen Shiliang and his wife.
Once the two men calmed down, Wang Jianshe took out the money for the bear gallbladder. Since everyone was there, they divided the money among themselves.
"Honey, hurry up and pick out a few dishes. We absolutely have to have Xiping and the others eat at home tonight, so we can have a few drinks."
Seeing the young men dividing the money, Chen Shiliang quickly told his wife to cook.
It was getting late, so Xu Xiuxiang didn't waste any time and immediately went to the kitchen to get busy.
The third and fourth children in the Chen family were both girls, one seventeen and the other fifteen. They also went to the kitchen to help with cooking, washing rice, and preparing vegetables.
Sheng Xiping and Wang Jianshe had something on their minds, and they had only pretended to leave. When the Chen family asked them to stay, they took the opportunity to stay and chat with Chen Shiliang.
After a while, the food was brought out, and the Chen family invited Sheng Xiping and the others to sit on the kang (heated brick bed) to eat.
Xu Xiuxiang also took out two bottles of wine, poured them into the wine pot and warmed them up, "Xiping, Jianshe, you two have a couple of drinks with your Uncle Chen and chat with him for a while."
"Auntie, don't be busy, sit down and eat." Sheng Xiping and the others invited Xu Xiuxiang to sit down together.
"No, I'll eat with Weimin and the others in the west room. It's the same food, so it's fine with either room."
Xu Xiuxiang smiled and explained, leaving Chen Shiliang and his son to keep her company while she took the children to the west room to eat.
Sheng Xiping and Wang Jianshe drank two glasses of wine with Chen Shiliang. Then Wang Jianshe coughed lightly twice and winked at Sheng Xiping.
He was afraid that Sheng Xiping would get so caught up in drinking that he would forget about important matters.
"Uncle Chen, Weiguo is so old, he should have gotten married and started a family long ago. Now that he and Liu Hongxia have broken up, shouldn't we hurry up and find him a girl?"
