Chapter 141 Xu Zhichun felt nauseous and wanted to vomit
No one in Liangjia Village dared to say a word.
The old lady who couldn't help but sigh was so panicked and scared that she stepped back behind the crowd, left the crowd, and quietly ran back home.
These people are too fierce. You can't afford to offend them. The best thing to do is to hide away as soon as possible.
The Lian family was furious and yelled at Uncle Liang and Zhang in anger.
"What do you mean? Do you look down on me? If you look down on me, don't marry me!"
"Even though our fourth brother is a widower, he's still strong and healthy, with eyes and a nose. Why do you look down on me?"
“You guys are amazing!”
"You can't bully others. There's no way."
"that is!"
Uncle Liang was so angry and anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead. He was already feeling aggrieved, and now he had to force a smile and apologize humbly. Liang, the village head, and many elderly people from the village were also present and hurried out to smooth things over. After much persuasion, the other party stopped cursing.
Although he stopped cursing, Lian's family still had a strong sense of self-esteem and insisted that the "insulting" guy come out and apologize, and they wouldn't give in no matter what they said.
Naturally, someone in Liangjia Village had heard who said it, but who was willing to point it out? Wouldn't that be tantamount to betrayal? A quarrel would ensue.
No one would be willing to take the initiative to get involved in such trouble.
In the end, Liang Lizheng understood the meaning of the Lian family's relentless cursing and pulled Uncle Liang to bite his ear for a while. Uncle Liang frowned at first, but finally nodded reluctantly.
Liang Lizheng smiled and said politely, saying that it was a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, and it was all a misunderstanding. In order to make up for the misunderstanding, the Liang family would give a big red envelope as compensation. On this happy day, everyone should take a step back and the matter would be over.
Although the other party was still humming, he was obviously not as angry as before.
There are also younger people who, relying on their young age and speaking without restraint, shamelessly ask with a smile how big the red envelope is.
Liang Lizheng sighed secretly, "It's a lot, of course it's a lot, at least two or three hundred coins, haha."
"What a fuss, is it two hundred or three hundred?"
"Two hundred? I think three hundred is a bit too little."
"At least four hundred."
"Otherwise it would be bullying and insincere."
"That's right."
Uncle Liang was so angry that he almost cursed. "From now on, they're his in-laws? How embarrassing!"
"Four hundred, yes, four hundred."
Uncle Liang almost gritted his teeth as he spoke. He just wanted this incident to pass quickly. He had lost all his face.
The Lian family was finally satisfied, and they praised him for his generosity and sincerity, saying that since the Liang family was so sincere, they would not mind.
The people in Liangjia Village looked at each other with contempt in their eyes. What kind of people are they?
Having lost a virgin daughter and not a penny of betrothal gifts, she had lost a lot of money. Now she had to pay another four hundred coins. Zhang's heart ached. Seeing Xu Zhichun in the crowd, her anger instantly doubled. She glared at Xu Zhichun resentfully, "It's all your fault! It's all your fault, it's all your fault!"
Uncle Liang shouted angrily: "Shut up, what are you doing?"
Zhang's hateful eyes and angry accusations were too direct and too sincere, and in an instant, countless eyes turned to Xu Zhichun.
Xu Zhichun: “.”
She regretted it, she shouldn't have come. Or maybe she should have just come for a quick visit and then left.
Aunt Liang had been taking good care of Xu Zhichun today and immediately put her behind her. "Sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Even the fourth brother saw Xu Zhichun. He chuckled and said with an ambiguous tone, "Your Liang family and I are truly destined to be together. My mother-in-law specifically asked me to come and see her because she wanted this Xu to marry me. It's a pity it didn't work out. I thought it was hopeless, but who knew Cui'er and I were truly destined to be together? Isn't that a coincidence?"
Xu Zhichun felt so nauseous that he wanted to vomit.
Many people vaguely felt that there seemed to be something fishy going on here: How could it be such a coincidence? The person who was originally going to marry Xu Zhichun ended up marrying Liang Cui'er due to an unexpected accident?
Everyone at the Lian family got excited, laughing and shouting things like "Fate, fate!" A woman even looked at Xu Zhichun critically and said loudly, "Is this Xu a widow? She's young and pretty, isn't our village old Shi just right—"
"Shut up!"
Liang Lizheng's face darkened and he shouted angrily, "Xu is our Liang family's daughter-in-law. Are you here to pick her up, or what else? What nonsense are you talking about to our Liang family's daughter-in-law?"
That woman, Lian Gu, is an aunt from a branch of the Lian family. Lian Lao Si has to call her aunt. She loves to meddle in other people's affairs, as if there is nothing she doesn't understand or worry about. She wants to get involved in everything. When she saw that the Lian family succeeded in causing trouble and got benefits, she was happy. Isn't this just taking advantage of others?
They are the in-laws who are here to pick up the bride. Do the bride's family dare to be disrespectful to them?
Liang Lizheng's scowl didn't bother her, she continued smiling, "I'm just being kind. Look at her age, she's just a flower. It's so hard to stay with her like this for the rest of her life. She didn't say anything, why is Liang Lizheng so anxious? Is it because your Liang family doesn't allow people to remarry? That's really overbearing."
Xu Zhichun looked at Uncle Liang and Madam Zhang and sneered, "Uncle and Auntie, don't you know the inside story? Are you letting the Lian family talk nonsense?"
Uncle Liang and Zhang felt relieved when they saw Xu Zhichun being teased. When Xu Zhichun asked about it, Uncle Liang had to explain no matter how reluctant he was, otherwise the head of the village, clan elders and village elders would not be able to accept it.
"Our niece-in-law is loyal and faithful. She has long since vowed not to remarry. I won't say any more, I won't say any more, haha."
Lian Gu was extremely talkative, and she felt that as a relative, she had been humiliated in front of so many people. She was very unhappy, and she was certain that on a day like today, no matter what she said or did, could the Liang family dare to do anything to her?
Really, if we don’t suppress the Liang family today, won’t the two families have to be inferior to them in future interactions?
Lian Gu continued to play dumb: "How could a young, blooming woman swear such a vow? Oh, niece, you weren't forced to do this, were you?"
Everyone in Liangjia Village was very disgusted and started complaining.
"What do you mean?"
"That's right, you're sick."
"What the hell are you talking about? Why is your dirty talk so annoying?"
“.”
Xu Zhichun sneered in anger, "My family has six or seven acres of prime farmland and a hundred acres of dry land. We run a small business and earn a few bucks every day. We just built a large brick and tiled house with a large courtyard. I also have a younger brother-in-law, not even eleven years old, who took the exam for the Tongsheng (Student Scholarship) this year and is now attending the county school. If he becomes successful in the future, won't I be able to enjoy a life of happiness? Why would I marry someone else when I can't enjoy this kind of life?"
"As for why I swore not to remarry, it's because there are so many people like you, Auntie, who always act like elders and try to force me to remarry, saying it's all for my own good - how do you know I'm not doing well right now? I'm so fed up with it, so I swore to stop all this gossip. I didn't expect that there would still be people like you who would rush in and be so self-righteous. Really, what can I say!"
"If you have the time, you should worry more about your family. How much money did you make this year? Is your grandson going to school? When will you build a new house? When will you buy two more acres of land? Do you have any plans to make more money and raise two more pigs next year?"
"Despite what other people's families do!"
