"That's all I ask. If you agree to it, we will never trouble you again."
Tang Shiyan: "Old man Tang, are you getting senile? When I separated from that family."
"Except for the tattered clothes I'm wearing, it seems like you haven't given me anything. How dare you come to my partner and ask for a betrothal gift now?"
Old Man Tang said angrily, "How did you become like this, you little bitch? Don't think you're so great just because you found a soldier as your partner."
"I'm from the capital, be careful. One day I might get tired of you and dump you, and you won't even know what's going on."
"People like them will definitely marry a girl from a better family. You're just a country girl and you have nothing."
"It's just that you have a pretty face. Maybe people are just interested in playing with you because of that face."
"Do you think he will be sincere to you? Then you will come back and beg us to support you."
"Haha..." Tang Shiyan burst into laughter. "This is the funniest joke I've ever heard. Old Man Tang, aren't you afraid of getting your tongue smeared when you say these things?"
"You still have the nerve to tell me you support me? When have you ever supported me? Not even when you bullied and abused me like that."
"Why didn't I see anyone supporting me? Now that I want the betrothal money, they think of supporting me. What were you doing before?"
"Don't make your words sound so nice. If I need something and I'm looking for you, I might not even be able to find you."
"Also, you guys should be more polite and stop constantly saying I was dumped."
"I relied on my own abilities to earn money, build a house, and live a good life. Even if I hadn't met him, I would still live a good life."
Old Man Tang was so angry that he spat out two mouthfuls of thick phlegm and wanted to scold her for being unfilial, but she didn't buy it at all.
At this time, Feng Lihong looked at Xia Jinnian and said, "Are you my daughter's partner? Do you know that we worked so hard to raise her?"
"It's okay if she's ignorant, but you're also ignorant. You're a soldier from the capital, and you don't know any manners at all."
"She's dating someone and she doesn't even come to meet us, her parents and elders."
"Didn't your parents teach you that if you're in a relationship, you should be nice to your partner's parents and elders?"
"I don't know how you became a soldier? You have no respect for us at all. You haven't even said hello to us or asked us to come in and sit down in the house in such a long time."
"Since you and my girl are in a relationship, it's not easy for us to raise her. You have to give us 400 yuan as a betrothal gift anyway."
"Otherwise, we will file a complaint against you to your superiors, saying that you deceived my daughter and disrespected us as parents. Let's see if you can still serve as a soldier."
Xia Jinnian moistened his throat and said, "Auntie, are you and I very familiar with each other? Besides, are you and Yanyan also very familiar with each other?"
"You said we were ignorant, but you are sensible. We don't even know each other, and you dare to come here and ask me to give you the betrothal money. I'm afraid you are crazy about money, right?"
"Don't think I don't know how you treated Yanyan before. I just didn't tell you."
"I feel sorry for Yanyan for having parents like you. It's the best choice she made to separate from your family."
"You still want me to invite you in to sit down? This is the house that Yanyan built. It's her territory. I wouldn't dare invite anyone in to sit down without her permission."
"You still want to complain to my boss? I'm afraid you don't even know who my boss is or where he lives, right?"
"Don't think I can't do anything to you just because I'm a soldier. If anyone dares to bully Yanyan, I don't care who he is. I'll deal with him anyway. At worst, I'll just quit being a soldier."
Tang Shiyan gave Xia Jinnian a thumbs-up gesture with her finger. She had indeed chosen the right person. He was the one who would support her at the critical moment.
Feng Lihong suddenly sat on the ground and rolled around, saying, "I don't care. Anyway, if you don't give us the betrothal money today, I won't get up."
"It's impossible for you to kidnap the daughter we raised with so much effort. At least you should give her some money as a token of your gratitude for raising her."
"Okay, you want a betrothal gift, right? Just wait for me to give it to you," Xia Jinnian walked into the house and came out after a while with a recorder in his hand.
"Auntie, don't you want a betrothal gift? Then please listen carefully to the recording and then we can talk about the betrothal gift."
Xia Jinnian opened the recording, and the voice in it was the previous conversation between Old Man Tang and Old Lady Zhou, saying that Tang Shiyan was picked up by Feng Lihong in the mountains.
She is not the Tang family's biological daughter at all. Once they raise her, she can work for the Tang family every day, and she will have to do all the dirty and tiring work.
Just give her some leftovers every few days to keep her alive. She won't starve to death. When she grows up, find her a rich man to marry, like Sun Mingliang, the fishmonger in town. He is very rich.
When the time comes to marry her to his family, Sun Mingliang will definitely agree to the 400 yuan betrothal gift. After all, this little bitch is so beautiful.
After she marries Sun Mingliang, she will be at his mercy, and we will get 400 yuan for nothing. Zehuai, Zeyu, and Zhaozhao are all flesh and blood of our Tang family.
We can't let them suffer any injustice. We must let this little bitch we picked up serve our family well. It is her right to exchange her for some betrothal money.
When everyone heard the recording played by Xia Jinnian, they were all shocked. It turned out that girl Tang was not the biological daughter of the Tang family. No wonder they treated her like that.
They also wanted to marry her to Sun Mingliang's family in town in exchange for the betrothal money. Everyone knew what kind of person Sun Mingliang was. They wanted to push Tang girl into the fire pit.
I heard that Tang Zhaozhao was tortured into a madman by Sun Mingliang just a few months after her marriage.
She was still pregnant and to this day no one knows where she went when she was acting crazy. No one has ever seen her.
Some aunts thought that their previous suspicions were correct. This girl Tang was so fair and beautiful, and didn't look like a member of the Tang family at all.
I said she was definitely not Tang's biological daughter. After listening to this recording, I realized that I was right.
Someone said, "So Miss Tang isn't your Tang family's biological daughter. No wonder you bullied her like that before."
"All the good things are reserved for the three dear ones. This guy can only eat the leftovers for two or three days."
"You are truly cruel and ruthless. No wonder your family is in this state now, with some paralyzed and some lame."
"You can barely even afford porridge. You deserve this. This is the retribution you deserve."
Feng Lihong: "You damn women, stop gloating."
"You guys have been bullying Tang girl all the time. Be careful or retribution will happen to you soon."
