Chapter 340 Pah
"It's just a matter of spending a little more money. Not only can it be done cleanly, but it can also be lively and give enough face to the son. Why doesn't the Kong family do it?"
"After we get married, after a while, we can tell the public that the Kong family's only child is gone. Also, we can say that Zhuang Qinghe wants to die for her husband. Who knows, we can even earn some money to honor her. We will have both money and reputation. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"
"There are a lot of dirty things in this big courtyard. Don't think that people are all good. If I were to say, the hearts of many people are not as clean as the soles of shoes that have been worn on the ground!"
After Zhao said this, everyone present was so shocked that their eyes almost fell to the ground.
What he said made sense, and if we talk about it, the Kong family definitely did not lose out.
After all, he is the only child, and being able to watch a wedding in the world of the living is also a wish come true, right? The most important thing is, after such a grand ceremony, who would have thought that this was the idea in the first place?
This means doing things that are different from common sense, so that you can't even imagine it and you can't even suspect them.
This person's calculations are very shrewd, and his heart is indeed dark.
Tsk tsk tsk…
Everyone present started talking about it.
Song's face suddenly turned pale.
Zhuang Ruman's face was even paler than hers. After a long while, he came to his senses and shouted angrily, "You two are so stubborn that you can say whatever you want."
"It doesn't matter what we say. The key is what you know. I don't believe that the Kong family didn't tell you about this? Don't you know the inside story?"
Zhao's words were unforgiving, and at this moment, her words were like knives, thrown at Zhuang Ruman, "Don't you know why your family got 300 taels of betrothal gift?"
"They are basically stepping on their own daughter's life to eat, drink and spend money. Now that they are asked about it, they still say that they are ignorant and that others are talking nonsense. It is really shameless for a parent to do this!"
"Why didn't God strike you with thunder to kill you?"
As soon as Zhao finished speaking, there was a loud "boom" and everyone was stunned.
Could it be that God couldn't stand this evil man who dared to throw away his daughter's life, and wanted to kill Zhuang Ruman? If that was the case, he had to get away from here as soon as possible, lest God accidentally hit him and implicate him.
When everyone saw this, they started pushing and shoving each other, and quickly left this dangerous place.
Even Zhao, who jumped the hardest and cursed the most, left quickly.
Only Zhuang Ruman and Song were left standing there dumbfounded, and they shrank back tremblingly for fear of being hit by the sky.
After confirming that the rumbling sound was only that one, Zhuang Ruman suddenly became alert. He put his hands on his hips, straightened his back, and spat on the ground, "Pah!"
"What do you mean God is showing off his power? It's just a bluff!"
"If this old man could really open his eyes and see, he would go find someone who is ten times more evil than me. Why would he come looking for a small fish like me?"
"What do you mean you are not worthy of being a father? What do you mean you are black-hearted? You two are talking nonsense. If you have the ability, why don't you ask for a dowry when you marry your daughter? If you have the ability, why don't you urge your daughter to tinker with things at home?"
"You two have dirty butts, and you still have the nerve to criticize others? You stink all over yourself, and you come over to say that others are choking you. Isn't this shameless?"
"What's wrong with me selling my daughter? It's because I have a daughter. My daughter is so lucky! You guys are dying for these three hundred taels of silver. You want it in your dreams, right? But it's a pity that no one will give it to you! If you want to sell your daughter, you should also check whether your daughter is so lucky and whether she is worth so much money!"
"Besides, how many fathers sell their daughters to other people as maids or to brothels? I send my daughter to be a proper young lady. I am no better than those people..."
Zhuang Ruman was shouting with righteous indignation, but Song's face turned pale and she lost her voice, "Boss, do the Kong family really want our Qinghe to marry her off as a silver wedding partner?"
Zhuang Ruman was stunned for a moment, then he jumped up and shouted, "You spendthrift woman, what do you know!"
"Hurry up and light some firecrackers to get rid of the bad luck!"
"You cooks, don't be idle. Make some noise when you chop the rice, and make the rice smell better. Let those who can't afford to eat good food smell it and make them drool!"
Song stood there, completely dazed, staring blankly at Zhuang Ruman.
Stupid woman! As expected, she must not know anything. If she knows, bad things will happen! She doesn't even think about it. Those people blocking the door should be kicked out. Why are you still talking here?
Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid that those gossipy women who like to be gossiped about behind people's backs will spread this matter!
But the important thing is that the people from the Kong family have to hurry and welcome the bride and take her away early. What happens afterwards will have nothing to do with him. No matter how much those people gossip here, it's useless!
So Zhuang Ruman did not bother to explain the matter to the Song family. He just went to see Zhuang Qinghe and tidied up the yard. He was just waiting for the people from the Kong family to come and stuff Zhuang Qinghe into the sedan chair after everything was ready.
As for the rest, since the matter has been settled, there will be nothing to worry about.
As for what those people said, it doesn't matter. Rumors are just rumors. Without evidence, nothing can be done to him! At most, when this matter is done, I can take the silver and move to another place with Zhuang Yuanzhong. With silver in hand, I can settle down anywhere! ——Zhuang Qingning did everything as usual. In addition, he was quite far away from Zhuang Ruman's house, so he was not affected. He just had breakfast, checked the situation in the workshop, and came back early to prepare.
Firstly, he was preparing to welcome Mr. Fan to give a lecture, and secondly, he was preparing to talk to the merchants in the county town as mentioned by Cao about the sale of preserved eggs.
In order to prevent interference from both sides, Zhuang Qingning planned to receive guests in the main room. The east room was originally used as a study. Although there were not many books in it now, there were desks, paper and pens, so Zhuang Qingsui and Zhuang Mingli were allowed to read and write in the east room first.
The sun had only risen a little higher, and the heat had not yet risen when Fan Wenxuan arrived.
"Hello, Mr. Fan."
Zhuang Qingning welcomed Fan Wenxuan home and poured him a cup of tea. "I'll have to thank you for your hard work in the future, Mr. Fan."
"No, no, it's as it should be."
Fan Wenxuan was speaking from her heart. She really liked the intelligent and independent-minded Zhuang Qingning and the lively and clever Zhuang Qingsui, and was very willing to teach Zhuang Qingsui how to read.
But the prerequisite is that Chu Jinnian should not think of making Zhuang Qingning his aide in the future.
