Chapter 395: The Broken Engagement

After listening to Zhang Qingniang's words, Zhao Daliang felt that it was not a good idea to talk about this matter in front of the whole village at this time. It was simply a joke for others to watch. He lost all his face. He hated Zhao Dazhu and his wife from the bottom of his heart. He thought that he had helped the couple so much before and let them take so much advantage of him. He might as well have fed them a dog. Dogs will still wag their tails!

Zhao Daliang went over and wanted to pick up Li Pozi. In fact, he really didn't want to care about Li Pozi anymore. He used to be filial to her. Especially this time, the rumor that he was the child of the Mao family was exposed. He was really going crazy. He had heard the rumors about his mother and Mao Laoliu before, and he was very unhappy. He didn't expect that after so many years, the rumor would come out again and it even came to him. It was simply driving him crazy!

"You can't leave. We have to make things clear here today! You are not from our Zhao family. Get out of our Zhao family! You'd better get out of Hebian Village!"

At this time, Dazhu's wife picked up a stick from the side and blocked it in front of her to prevent Zhao Daliang from hugging Li Pozi.

Seeing that his wife dared to rush forward, Zhao Dazhu also looked around for something, found a hoe, and went over to grab it.

Zhao Daliang and Zhang Qingniang were really going crazy. This was simply unreasonable!

"What happened next?"

Su Zhi listened to Hua Pozi telling her what happened in the village today with great interest. She thought that she was indeed a time traveler. Even if she didn't travel to the palace or a mansion, but just to a small village, countless wonderful things happened every day. Today's incident was full of twists and turns, and it was all so shocking.

Mrs. Hua came here specifically to tell Su Zhi about these things. When these things happened today, Su Zhi was busy in Fuyuan, so she naturally didn't know anything. In order to get closer to Su Zhi, she naturally came here to tell her the news. Seeing that Su Zhi was listening attentively, she immediately became more interested and started talking again. Shen Zian and Aunt Lan who were listening at the side also listened attentively.

"This is the final result. The two brothers of the Zhao family haven't figured out the result of the trouble yet, and the Mao family came to make trouble again, saying that Zhao Daliang is not from their family. This has brought a bad reputation to their family. They want the Zhao family and your old house to compensate for their losses, and each family must pay 100 taels! He is simply robbing money! If money is really so easy to make, you say every day that he is the son of this family and he says that I am the daughter of that family, and then think of ways to ask others for money, can't he become a landlord?"

Mrs. Hua said while humming.

Su Zhi couldn't help but laugh after hearing the last sentence. She thought that Hua Pozi's words were quite hurtful, but what she said was reasonable. The Mao family was really hateful. Why did they always do such things to take advantage of others' misfortunes? This time, they even asked each family to compensate him with 100 taels. Did he think that silver was a stone from the mountain?

At that time, even if a farmer's family spent a year on food and clothing, they might not be able to save ten taels of silver. The Mao family suddenly asked for a hundred taels of silver from each family. It was like asking for their lives. Did he think they would give it to him? How could his reputation be so valuable? How shameless he was.

"What happened next? No one must have cared about the Mao family anymore?"

Shen Zian asked from the side. Although the situation with the Shen family's old house was very tense, he had stopped going there and was planning to let his elder and second brothers take the tribute to Shen Youfu before he found out the truth. But he still cared about that place because his elder brother's family was there and his elder brother was still good to him.

When Mrs. Hua saw Shen Zian had also asked, she quickly said, "Of course no one cared. The people in the village couldn't stand it anymore. Later, the head of the village came forward and told them all to go home and solve their problems privately. He said that if they made a big fuss and brought discredit to the village, they would be expelled from the village!"

In Liangguo, if a truly intolerable person appears in a village, he or she can be driven out of the village with the consent of the majority. Such people either have to go far away, or the nearby villages will not be willing to accept them. Even if they are given money and reluctantly move in, they will still be looked down upon in the village.

So when the head of the village said this, many villagers could not stand the Zhao and Mao families anymore, so they agreed and said that both families should be driven out. As a result, the Mao and Zhao families dared not make any more trouble and went home obediently.

"But this matter is not over yet. I think once Mrs. Li is buried, there will be more trouble. Zhao Daliang's family has a few silver coins, but the Mao family and his eldest brother are coveting them!"

Hua Pozi said, thinking to herself, what if Li Pozi has two sons? What if she has a son who can make money? Now she has ended up like this. She thinks her son is still the best.

Su Zhi and others also felt that these people were still going to make some noise, and it seemed that there was still some excitement to be seen.

Old Mrs. Li is already dead, and she must be buried. The two sons now dislike each other, but they still want to work together to hold the funeral for their mother.

Because the reason for Mrs. Li's death was really unpleasant, plus she was suspected of having an affair with Mao Laoliu, and there was a conflict between her two sons, not to mention that Zhao Xiaohua was still in prison. No one was willing to go to such a person's funeral, and in the end it was a cold and lonely funeral, very sad.

While Mrs. Li was handling the funeral, the Shen family also went to the Qian family to discuss the cancellation of the engagement. Naturally, they went with a stern face, accusing the Qian family of concealing Qian Guang's injury and deceiving them into promising their daughter to Qian Guang, and directly asked to cancel the engagement.

Mr. Qian was furious. The Shen family had forced them into a corner for the marriage, but now they didn't agree. Naturally, they would not agree to cancel the engagement. If they did, they would lose face.

Mrs. Qian also insisted on not backing out. Her attitude seemed like she was just venting her anger. It was obvious that she didn't want to get married with your family in the first place. You insisted, and now it's too late to back out!

"Mr. Qian, Mrs. Qian, please think carefully. Our family must cancel this marriage. Even if we have to sue the government, we will cancel it. But when that happens, both of our families will be embarrassed."

Shen Zhang signaled to Shen Youfu not to speak, and she spoke up. She knew that Shen Youfu had a bad temper. If she said something wrong, the Qian family would really insist on it, and it would be really difficult to deal with it. She said that she would go to the government to seek justice, but that was just talk. It was bad enough to be a wet nurse, and it would be even worse if the matter was reported to the government. She was just betting that the Qian family didn't want to go to the government, so she said this to give both sides a way out.

Madam Qian sneered at Shen Zhang and said, "Madam Shen, your family is really well-educated! A girl has called off an engagement once and that's it, but now she's calling it off a second time. Your girl is really precious, she's not worthy of one or two men, and she's not worthy of you after the engagement. I wonder what you were looking at before the engagement?!"

"Mrs. Qian, this has nothing to do with my daughter Zhu'er, but your family. If your family had told us that Qian Guang and Jiao Le were disabled, this would not have happened. Now it is my daughter who is suffering. Why are you so angry? It is you who have let our family down."

"If your family hadn't forced you, this marriage wouldn't have happened, and it wouldn't have been arranged so hastily. You brought this upon yourself, who can you blame?!"

Mrs. Qian smiled sarcastically. She was very happy now. She thought her son's idea was a good one. The Shen family really came to cancel the engagement. It was time for them to make things difficult for the Shen family. Thinking of how the Shen family had forced them to get engaged, she was filled with anger and her words became sharp.

In fact, if Shen Zhu didn't care about Qian Guang's lameness and was still willing to marry him, Mrs. Qian might have changed her mind about her. But now it seems that Shen Zhu is a greedy and ruthless woman. She came for their family's money and Qian Guang's talents, but she ran away as soon as Qian Guang got into trouble. We can't keep such a woman!

Shen Zhang was also regretful. Why did she rush to get engaged? Since she had forced the Qian family to give in, she could have waited until Qian Guang recovered from his injury before getting engaged. Why did she rush to get engaged? Now she really regretted it. In fact, her family was so anxious because they were afraid that the Qian family would go back on their word. Qian Guang was angry with Shen Zhu and wanted to take revenge on her, so he proposed to her so early and got engaged so quickly.

Now that Qian Guang's plan has succeeded and the Shen family wants to cancel the engagement, the Qian family will naturally take this opportunity to humiliate the Shen family.

However, under the soft and hard tactics of the Shen family, the Qian family still agreed to cancel the engagement, showing an extremely angry look. In fact, they thought that if they didn't agree, what if the Shen family didn't cancel the engagement, then they would lose both the gain and the loss. After all, Qian Guang was not really lame, and he didn't want to marry Shen Zhu.

The Qian and Shen families called off the marriage, but in the process, the feud between the two families had become heated.

The Shen family naturally accused the Qian family of marriage fraud, wanting their lame son to marry their daughter.

The Qian family told the story of how the Shen family had forced the marriage, how the marriage was arranged in haste, and how they had cancelled the engagement.

At the beginning, some people sympathized with the Shen family, and some sympathized with the Qian family. Later, the Qian family invited all the doctors who treated Qian Guang to say that when Qian Guang was engaged, his injury did not look like a limp at all, and that it was a complete deterioration of the injury. They also said that even the fourth daughter-in-law of the Shen family had prescribed medicine for Qian Guang, which was enough to cure his injury, and that the sudden situation that occurred later was really an accident.

Su Zhi and Shen Zhu were sisters-in-law, and Su Zhi was already very famous, not only because she was smart, but also because she was the one who was credited with bringing rain during the drought, and her medicine was also very effective. With her prescribing medicine for the wounds and so many doctors testifying, the Qian family immediately gained the upper hand.
