Chapter 132: A Savage Who Can't Communicate
Before the people in the house could react, the person in the yard couldn't wait to push Shuangyun away and walked directly into the house.
The main house of the Yu family was not very big. After Boss Pang came in, the black-clothed servants behind him also rushed in with the brocade box brought down from the carriage, and they actually filled up almost the entire room.
Mrs. Wei's face changed.
The daughters-in-law were still unaware of the entanglement between this boss and their families. When they saw this situation, they all took a deep breath in confusion.
Boss Pang took the initiative and bowed to Mrs. Wei politely: "I am Pang from Jinxiu Manor. This is the old lady of the Yu family, right?"
Although Mrs. Wei had never met Boss Pang, she guessed the other party's identity when she heard the so-called "marriage proposal".
Hearing him introduce himself, Mrs. Wei suppressed her anger and snorted coldly, "I am just a country woman, I am not worthy of being called old lady by Mr. Pang."
"You're too polite, ma'am." Boss Pang smiled. Seeing that Mrs. Wei was resisting him, he knew that she probably already knew what he was talking about.
He turned around and asked the black-robed servants behind him to open all the brocade boxes.
The gold, silver, jewels and rare antiques placed in the brocade box were so bright that they hurt the eyes.
The room was silent for a few breaths.
Boss Pang's eyes flashed with pride, and he said with a smile: "As long as you are willing to marry your granddaughter to my son, this will be part of the betrothal gift from my Pang family."
The Yu family's daughters-in-law were all dumbfounded.
Either he suspected that there was something wrong with his ears, or he thought that the man named Pang in front of him had something wrong with his brain.
What's the point of getting married or not? Xingxing is only four years old at most!!!
Mrs. Wei was furious, her eyes were almost spitting fire!
If she hadn't taken into account that she was still holding Xingxing in her arms, Mrs. Wei would have just called her family to beat that Pang guy out!
Li Chunhua came to her senses and cursed, "Are you crazy? My daughter Xingxing is only four years old this year. It doesn't matter whether she will get married or not. Who are you ruining?"
Boss Pang bowed and said, "I didn't explain it clearly. My only son has a strange disease and has been incurable for a long time. The Taoist priest said that he was cursed by a bad luck and only a person with great fortune can help to cure the bad luck... But that's why I came to your house to ask for your hand in marriage in order to save my only son's life. I promise that your daughter's coming to my house is just an engagement. I will take care of her as my own daughter and wait until they are old enough to get married. I will never let your daughter suffer any grievances..."
Boss Pang's words were like pouring oil on the fire!
Li Chunhua was so angry that her face turned red: "You mean to let our daughter Xingxing go to your house as a child bride?! I tell you, don't even think about it!"
Bai Xiaofeng also cursed with her big belly: "Shameless bastard, take your things and get out of here quickly, don't mess with me!"
Then she called out to Shuangyun, "…Why are you still standing there? Go get a broom!"
A flash of anger appeared in Boss Pang's eyes.
These country folk are really savages who are impossible to communicate with!
Before he was chased out, he did not forget to make one last effort: "...You'er is my only son. When your daughter Xingxing marries into our family, she will be the proprietress of Jinxiu Manor and will have endless money..."
"Bah!" Mrs. Wei spat fiercely, "What's so great about having a few filthy coins? Do you think my family values them?! If my Xingxing wants to use money, we will naturally make it for her. You don't need to worry about it!"
What are they talking about pacifying evil spirits and getting married in the future? Isn't it just to make them sell apricots?
Apart from anything else, Mrs. Wei would definitely not agree to a child bride!
Mrs. Wei was furious and ordered Shuangyun, Li Chunhua and Su Rouer to drive everyone out.
Boss Pang was in a state of panic and also became angry. He looked at Wei Pozi and the others gloomily, said "You don't know what's good for you", and left with his men.
Mrs. Wei stood at the gate of the courtyard, snorted coldly, pinched her waist, and spat fiercely outside.
When some villagers heard about this, they came to Yu's house, looking very sorry for them.
"Hey, you said that raising a girl is just for her to marry well, right? Your family is also confused. How big is Jinxiu Manor? They are willing to come to your Xingxing to propose marriage, can't you just arrange a baby marriage?"
Mrs. Wei said, "It's easy for you to say that! What if the son surnamed Pang dies? Will our daughter Xingxing become a widow at such a young age?"
"What if this Pang's son gets well and wants to marry someone else? This is simply gambling with the happiness of my daughter Xingxing!"
"If you think it's a pity, just let your daughter marry her!"
Mrs. Wei spat in the other person's face, slammed the door and locked the person outside the yard with a firm attitude.
Xingxing knew that her family would not push her out, so she could sleep more peacefully at night.
She doesn't want to be a child bride. She just wants to stay at home and be the good girl of the family!
Ever since Mrs. Wei drove Boss Pang out, the Yu family has had a few days of peace.
Li Chunhua saw that the weather outside was good and the snow that had fallen a few days ago had almost melted. She suggested to Mrs. Wei that they take Xingxing to the nameless Taoist temple to pay homage.
Mrs. Wei thought that her daughter Xingxing was doing well at home but had encountered such an unlucky thing, so she had to pray to the gods to drive away the bad luck, so she agreed immediately.
This time, except for Bai Xiaofeng who was already older, almost all the female members of the family went out.
Mrs. Wei, Li Chunhua, Su Rouer, Xingxing, and Ju Geer took a horse-drawn carriage to the foot of the mountain where the nameless Taoist temple was located.
A few days ago, the Fan, Gao, Liu and Bai families, who had been saved by the old Taoist priest and Wei Shiyan, worked together to build a road up the mountain, making it much more convenient for horse-drawn carriages to go up.
However, when they reached the mountainside, the forest was so dense that it was difficult to build a road. In addition, the old Taoist priest appeared to stop them, so the four families gave up.
The Yu family's carriage went all the way to the mountainside, and Yu Daniu, who was driving the carriage, stopped there.
"Mom, be careful when you go up the mountain," Yu Daniu said, "I'll be waiting for you here."
Mrs. Wei nodded, took Xingxing, Li Chunhua, Su Rouer and Ju Ge'er, and walked towards the deep mountains where the nameless Taoist temple was located.
Because it is winter, this nameless Taoist temple looks much more lonely than in other seasons.
Xingxing exhaled white mist from her mouth and searched left and right with her little head.
In fact, Ju Ge'er had no interest in burning incense and worshipping gods. Seeing Xing Xing looking left and right, he was quite curious and asked Xing Xing, "What are you looking for?"
Xing Xing said casually: "Xing Xing is looking for Brother Yan."
The word "Brother Yan" made Ju Ge'er so jealous.
Ju Ge'er said angrily, "You still call me Ju Ge'er, why are you calling that wild man outside 'brother'?"
Xing Xing was stunned: "But, but Brother Yan, it's Brother Yan. Not some wild man..."
Brother Ju glared at Xing Xing fiercely.
Su Rouer was listening to the conversation between the two children. She couldn't bear it any longer and slapped Ju Ge'er on the head. She was a little speechless: "How can you talk like that? That Mr. Shi is your sister's savior. What a wild man."
When Wei Shiyan talked about his name with outsiders, he always said "Shiyan" directly, so his family members thought his surname was Shi.
Ju Ge'er was not convinced and was still mumbling something. Su Rou'er was impatient and slapped Ju Ge'er on the butt again: "Okay, hurry up and go into the temple and burn some incense for the gods. Let the gods bless you with good health."
