Chapter 73 One Thousand Dollar Divorce
"You...what did you say?"
Qi Man patiently said, "How much money do you want to divorce Sister Xiao An?"
"Bah!" Ma Jiazheng spat on the ground, looked at Bai Xiaoan who was sitting on a chair holding a cup of tea, and said through gritted teeth: "You want to divorce me? Dream on. Bai Xiaoan is a member of my Ma family in life and a ghost of my Ma family in death. Even if she is a hen that can't lay eggs, she has to serve my mother for the rest of her life. I spent a hundred yuan as a betrothal gift to marry her."
He has not been educated, but he is not stupid.
He had never seen Qi Man before. She should have only come to Qingyun Village in the past two months. Bai Xiaoan stayed in Majia Village for a long time and had not returned to the village for several years.
We have just known each other for a short time, how good can our relationship be?
Even if Qi Man was willing to pay, she couldn't afford much.
"No matter what I say today, you have to go back with me and serve my mother!"
As he said that, he was thinking about going forward and dragging Bai Xiaoan.
Qi Man took the lead and stood in front, with a sweet smile on her face, and said softly: "If you want to fight hard, think carefully, and see who will suffer."
A small fry like Ma Jiazheng can be crushed to death just by moving your fingers, just like crushing an ant.
Thinking of Qi Man's strange strength just now, Ma Jiazheng was lying about not being afraid. Although this female comrade was unique, she was indeed a bit weird.
If they really fought head-on, he might suffer a loss. Ma Jiazheng took a few steps back in fear, staring at Qi Man unfriendlyly:
"What do you want? A daughter who is married off is like water that has been poured out. Bai Xiaoan and I are a legitimate couple and we have obtained a marriage certificate. Even if that old man comes, he has no right to detain my wife here."
"one thousand!"
Ma Jiazheng: “???”
Qi Man repeated again: "One thousand, divorce Sister Xiao An."
As soon as these words came out, Ma Jiazheng's brain exploded. He ignored the pain in his body and asked anxiously, "Really?"
What is the concept of one thousand yuan?
The average person's monthly salary is only 20 or 30 yuan, and they can only earn 200 to 300 yuan a year. To save up 1,000 yuan, one would need to go without food or drink for three years.
After hearing such a price, Ma Jiazheng no longer had the toughness he had just now. Instead, he stared at Qi Man with sharp eyes, eager to know the truth of the matter.
One thousand yuan is enough for him to marry eight or nine wives. At any rate, they are better than Bai Xiaoan, a yellow-faced woman who can't even lay eggs.
Qi Man glanced at Ma Jiazheng and said, "Wait here, and don't touch Sister Xiao An."
Having said that, he quickly entered the room and took out a thousand yuan bill from the space. The largest denomination was the ten yuan Great Unity note, and the thousand yuan bills formed a thick stack.
Fearing that the Ma family was doing something to Bai Xiaoan, Qi Man walked out of the room without delay.
Looking at the thick stack of Great Unity in Qi Man's hand, Ma Jiazheng couldn't help swallowing his saliva. His eyes seemed to be grown on the Great Unity, swaying with the shaking of Qi Man's hand.
Qi Man placed a thick stack of money on the table.
"Divorce Sister Xiao An, and all of these will be yours."
Ma Jiazheng's eyes never left the banknotes. He nodded repeatedly like pounding garlic, and said urgently, "Leave, leave, leave."
Seeing such a huge stack of banknotes, my teeth don’t hurt anymore and it’s worth breaking my hand.
Isn’t it just a divorce?
With this thousand dollars, what can you want?
Qi Man raised her eyebrows and the smile on her face became even brighter.
Sure enough, money makes the world go round.
What the book says is true, if you give enough, even the most rock-hard person will be moved.
"At home, at home. The journey from Qingyun Village to Majia Village by car takes a day and a night. I will go back to get it now. Wait, I can't regret it!"
After saying that, he ran as fast as he could as if his feet were greased, fearing that Qi Man would regret it if he was a step late.
It was not until the Ma family left that Bai Xiaoan felt the fear in his heart dissipate. He glanced at the thick stack of big unity on the table, looked at Qi Man with some worry, and said in a stiff tone: "Man Man... I'm not worth so much money, what a waste!"
Even if she was sold, she wouldn't be worth so much money.
Qi Man grinned, stretched out her hand and pinched Bai Xiaoan's sagging face, and said gently: "No, Sister Xiaoan, you deserve it. Don't worry, I won't let your previous suffering be in vain. People like them deserve to die."
Once that beast divorces Sister Xiao An, there will be no need for him to live in this world.
Bai Xiaoan was a little confused and couldn't figure it out, but he was so moved by Qi Man's words that his eyes turned red. He threw himself into Qi Man's arms and burst into tears, pouring out all the grievances he had suffered in the past few years.
Even Mr. Qi, who was resting in the room, was awakened by the noise outside the yard. He moved cautiously and walked to the door.
As a result, I saw my granddaughter being held by a thin figure. The person in his arms was crying so hard that his shoulders were shaking and he was gasping for breath.
After Bai Xiaoan had finished crying, Mr. Qi spoke softly: "Manman, this is..."
When Bai Xiaoan heard Grandpa Qi's voice, she wiped her tears and stepped out of Qi Man's arms. She didn't say anything, but stared at Grandpa Qi with her black eyes.
Without waiting for Qi Man to explain, Mr. Qi recognized the girl in front of him at a glance: "You...you are Xiao An?"
Bai Xiaoan nodded, but didn't say anything.
Looking at the skinny and miserable Bai Xiaoan, Mr. Qi was a little surprised: "Xiao...Xiaoan, what's wrong with you? You've been married for a few years, why do you become like this!"
Bai Xiaoan grew up under his care. The girl has been lively since she was young and would call him "Grandpa" obediently whenever she met him.
Bai Xiaoan now looked like a withered flower, lifeless, with a haggard face, bruised nose and swollen face, and very conspicuous wounds on his hands.
Qi Man wiped the tears from the corners of Bai Xiaoan's eyes, then helped Old Man Qi to a chair in the yard. She then roughly explained to Old Man Qi what Bai Xiaoan had experienced in recent years.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Qi was immediately furious. He slammed his palm on the table with a loud bang, and said angrily:
"He's just a beast! A few years ago, when Xiao An got married, that messy thing patted his chest and promised Lao Bai that he would treat Xiao An well! In the end, it was just what he said. He's really not a man."
Qi Man was afraid that Grandpa would get angry, so she quickly stretched out her little hand to calm him down, and comforted him softly, "Grandpa, evildoers will be punished by God, and that man will definitely get his retribution. He has agreed to divorce Sister Xiao An, and has gone back to get the certificate and the household registration, and the formalities will be completed tomorrow."
Bai Xiaoan was already tired of crying, and what she had experienced in the past few years had made her physically and mentally exhausted. Now she couldn't even utter a word and could only sit aside obediently.
Old Master Qi felt a little distressed when he saw the skinny Bai Xiaoan. "You are such a hard-working girl. It's better to get a divorce! If you get a divorce, you won't be persecuted anymore. It's a pity that the scourge has lasted for thousands of years. Forget about that bastard. Just talking about it makes me angry."
