Chapter 314: Unyielding
The two groups who were arguing fiercely were shocked.
Only then did I realize that the Spring Equinox had disappeared at some point, and even the eggs were gone.
Aunt Lian San and her husband have always doted on their only child. This is outrageous. "God damn it, you dare to hit my son before he even gets married? Is there any law? How did you teach your daughter?"
Lian Kaner led the way, and everyone hurried there in a hurry.
Right on a roadside in the village, Lian Daner was beaten by Chunfen and had no power to fight back.
"Hit! Hit! I'll hit you! I'll hit you!"
The villagers gathered in a circle to watch the fun, pointing, talking, complaining and joking.
Xu Zhichun and Nanny Qin Qing were also there.
"Egg! Egg! Stop it! Stop it now!"
Aunt San was so distressed that her heart was trembling. She rushed forward and pushed Chunfen.
Chunfen waved his hand lightly, and Aunt Lian San couldn't help but step back seven or eight steps.
"You little bitch! I'm your mother-in-law. How dare you fight with her?"
Chunfen's mother: "My Chunfen will not marry your son. Who are you to be the mother-in-law?"
Aunt Lian San glared at the mother and daughter, and hurriedly helped Lian Daner up with her sisters-in-law.
Lian Dan'er's face was covered in bruises and purples, as if a paint shop had been overturned. Coupled with his unsightly facial features and grinning expression, no one could bear to look at him except his own father and mother, who felt pity and love for him.
He quickly looked away with just one glance.
It's an eyesore.
"My son! What's going on?"
Lian Daner hissed, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, spat on the ground, and looked so gloomy that he wished he could torture Chunfen to death.
The damn girl dared to hit him!
He wanted to tear her apart.
But he was too embarrassed to say it out loud. He was being beaten by a woman and had no power to fight back. Even though so many people saw it, he still didn't have the courage to say it out loud.
Aunt Lian San suddenly rushed to Chunfen and raised her hand to hit her, but Chunfen gently pushed her back several steps amid the exclamations and gasps of the onlookers.
"You, you dare to fight me!"
"Yes, you came here by yourself."
"You dare to hit me!"
"Whoever hits me, I will hit him back."
"I'm your elder! How dare you hit me!" Aunt Lian San was so angry that she fell backwards. "Mother-in-law, what's wrong with your family? Is this how you raise your daughter?"
Chunfen's parents were a little panicked. They wanted to cancel the engagement, but they also didn't want their daughter to have a bad reputation. In any case, the engagement had not been canceled yet, and Aunt Lian San was Chunfen's real elder.
"We didn't teach her that. Chunfen has always been very sensible and never hits anyone. Everyone in our village can testify to that."
Spring Equinox: "Well, I will hit whoever hits me."
Spring Equinox Lady: “.”
It makes sense, but it doesn't seem entirely true.
Aunt Lian was furious, "How dare you hit me? I'm your mother-in-law!"
Chunfen stiffened his neck and said, "If you don't hit me, I won't hit you. If you hit me, I'll hit you back."
"Listen! Listen!"
The Lian family was very angry.
"Isn't that too rude?"
"That's right, mother-in-law is an elder, you can't fight with an elder no matter what."
"With her brute strength, if she starts fighting, her parents-in-law will beat her to death."
"Otherwise why would you say she's a silly girl."
"Isn't this a bit too stupid?"
"Ah, this? There's still a lot of time to come, isn't it?"
Spring Equinox doesn't know what to do.
Chunfen's father sighed: "Can't we just not do this marriage? Our two families are not suitable."
Aunt Lian sneered: "A silly girl like this, if my son wasn't weak and wanted a strong daughter-in-law who could do the work, would I be interested in her? Besides our family, who else would want such a fool? You still dare to call off the engagement? Are you crazy?"
"If you really want to cancel the engagement, it's not impossible. Bring me one hundred taels of silver, and fifty kilograms of sweet potatoes and potatoes. Otherwise, it's impossible."
Everyone gasped.
"How much? How much does she want?"
"One hundred taels of silver, hahahaha!"
"You dare to ask for sweet potatoes and potatoes? You're really imaginative!"
"Chunfen's parents are in trouble now. How could they have offended such a person?"
"yes."
Chunfen had no concrete idea about the one hundred taels of silver and fifty kilograms of sweet potatoes. She only knew that the Lian family was willing to cancel the engagement, so she didn't have to get married.
She looked at her mother with sparkling eyes, full of hope and joy.
Chunfen's heart ached suddenly, and she tried to reason with the Lian family.
I didn't expect the Lian family to be so unreasonable, arrogant and rude, and never give in.
Chunfen gradually felt it too, tears welling up in her eyes, "Mom, I won't marry! I won't marry!"
She ran to Xu Zhichun and hugged her arm: "Sister-in-law Zhichun, I won't marry!"
Xu Zhichun and Nanny Qin Qing were not conspicuous in the crowd. Only then did the Lian family see her and all looked over.
Those looks were very unfriendly, even obscene.
Liang Cui'er almost married Lian Laosi, but on the day of the wedding, this woman made a big fuss over a small matter and refused to give in, which ruined Lian Laosi's marriage.
Many people recognized Xu Zhichun and their eyes became even more unfriendly.
Aunt Lian San sneered: "I thought someone was meddling in other people's business, but it turns out——"
"Have some respect!" Nanny Qin Qing shouted before Aunt Lian San could finish. "Our wife was personally bestowed the title of Madam Shanci by the Emperor. A few days ago, the county magistrate and Lord Meng, the Minister of the Provincial Capital, came to Liangjia Village to present the title and reward to her. If you didn't know, it would be fine. But I'm telling you now. If you dare to offend me again, don't blame me for having you tied up and sent to the government to be beaten!"
Everyone in the Lian family was shocked.
"What?"
"Blow it, just blow it."
"Exactly, who are you trying to scare?"
In the era when communication was not well developed, it was natural that information was cut off beyond the distance of several mountains.
The news of this grand event in Liangjia Village spread to the surrounding villages, but the distant Bakou Village was still unaware of it.
When the Lian family heard Nanny Qin Qing say "the emperor personally appointed him", "the county magistrate", and "the lord from the provincial capital", they were completely dazed.
What did they hear? The Emperor? The county magistrate? Mr. Chen from the provincial capital? What was this woman saying?
To them, the emperor was a great figure far beyond the nine heavens, and they never expected that one day they would actually hear him in reality.
Everyone in Liangjia Village talked to them and gave them scientific knowledge.
"I'm not exaggerating, this is true. What happened a few days ago, everyone in the surrounding villages knows about it. You can go and ask around."
"Exactly. Who dares to joke with the emperor and the adults? Do they have any brains?"
"Haha, how ignorant! Isn't it normal for someone like Madam Xu to emerge from our Liang Village?"
"You dare to disrespect Madam Xu? Are you trying to kill yourself?"
"I'll tie you up and send you to the government office, and then you'll know if it's true or not!"
Even the family was in shock.
