"Do we need to specify the maintenance fee?" Zhao Erya suddenly interjected, "What if our family becomes wealthy someday and my grandparents come back to claim they haven't divided the family property? What if they insist on taking all our property? What if my grandparents..."
"Bullshit! Can your family become rich?! Even if your family is really rich, I won't even step into your door!" Old Mrs. Zhao put her hands on her hips and cursed.
This old lady Zhao kept calling her "old lady" in front of her granddaughter. She was really... The old village chief was extremely displeased.
He paused, "The maintenance allowance really needs to be clearly spelled out, otherwise there will be endless trouble. For an average family, giving the elderly one or two taels of silver per year is considered quite good."
How could the second wife afford one tael of silver? Zhao Er smiled bitterly.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Erya agreed immediately: "Okay, then one tael of silver a year, our family can afford it."
As a vested interest, Mrs. Zhao naturally would not object to the free money.
Zhao Erya: "Besides that, our family doesn't need to bear any other expenses, right? Even if the old lady and the old man get sick..."
Mrs. Zhao: "Even if we are sick, we don't need you to take care of us!"
The old village chief nodded and said, "Your second family is already having a hard time, so even if they get sick, you don't have to go out anymore."
Zhao Erya: "Then I have another question."
Old Lady Zhao glared at him, "Why do you have so many questions, little girl? Shut up right now!"
Zhao Erya: "My father is sick, my mother is pregnant, Xiaowu is young, and this matter involves my eldest sister, so I am the only one who can speak up, right?"
Zhao Erya turned to the old village chief and said, "Grandpa Village Chief, my grandmother and my aunt sold my eldest sister to Mangshan in the north of the town. They wanted her to be a wife shared by three brothers. They sold her for fifty taels of silver!"
"Is there such a thing?!" the old village chief glared at Old Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao's expression suddenly turned very ugly. She was about to argue, but Zhao Erya sneered, "Grandma, do you want to ask Matchmaker Feng to confront us?"
Old Mrs. Zhao and Wang looked at each other, then turned around and glared at Zhao Erya again, their eyes full of anger, as if they wanted to beat the girl to death.
Zhao Erya sneered, "We don't want the fifty taels either. All we need is for my grandma to cancel this marriage."
The old village chief glared at Mrs. Zhao and said, "Are you still a human being? You didn't save your own son, but you want to sell your own granddaughter?"
The old village chief glared at Mr. Zhao and said, "If I were you, I would have divorced such a vicious woman long ago!"
Mr. Zhao was embarrassed: "...Maybe there's some misunderstanding about this matter."
The old village chief said: "I think you are just being deliberately confused! I, an old man, don't bother to care about other things, but this one is not right, because it will ruin the reputation of our entire Zhaojia Village! So absolutely not!"
The old village chief glared at Old Lady Zhao and threatened her directly, "If you don't cancel this marriage, you'll have to go back to your Wangjia Village!"
If the old village chief and the clan elders join forces to put pressure on Mr. Zhao, he will have no choice but to divorce his wife.
Old Mrs. Zhao was really scared.
The old village chief picked up his pen and wrote this matter into the deed of division of the family property.
Zhao Erya looked at the old village chief who was always leaning towards their second branch, and her heart moved.
The village chief was not so righteous in the past... I think that Sister Yun's rabbit and her as a person... must have been valued by the village chief.
Zhao Erya thought of what the waiter at Hongsheng Restaurant had said to her in Tao Ren Tang.
