She softened her tone, "Her aunt, today's incident was indeed a misunderstanding. It's all my fault. I had a severe headache when I woke up this morning, so I was a little irritated and offended the young daughter-in-law of the Su family. Tomorrow I will personally go to her house to apologize and make amends."
Sun Zhongqin frowned and looked at her without saying a word, quietly watching her perform Sichuan Opera face-changing.
I thought she would just throw a tantrum and act like a spoiled brat, but who knew she would be so flexible.
Seeing that Sun Zhongqin didn't say anything, Wang Daju thought that Sun Zhongqin had been persuaded by her and put on an earnest attitude to persuade her.
"Her aunt, Yiming and our Xiaojing are both good-tempered. They will definitely have a good life together in the future. Besides, our Xiaojing is the most filial. She will definitely be filial to you in the future..."
"I can't bear her filial piety." Sun Zhongqin interrupted Wang Daju.
As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows and glanced at the mess on the ground.
Her family can't afford such a lousy thing.
If Zhou Xiaojing was really a good person, she would have accepted the marriage reluctantly. At most, she would have to have less contact with Wang Daju in the future. Unfortunately...
She is not.
Seeing that Sun Zhongqin was not moved by any persuasion, Wang Daju quickly winked at Zhou Xiaodong, asking him to help say a few good words.
Zhou Xiaodong stood there like a wooden stake, not looking at anyone and not speaking.
Wang Daju was so angry that she really wanted to go up and hit him.
The men in other people's families are the pillars of the family, but the unpromising man in her family is just a decoration.
Zhou Xiaojing was nervous when she saw how difficult Sun Zhongqin was.
He treated her like this before they even got married. If they got married, he would torture her to death! Liu Chunhua watched with gloating, wishing that Wang Daju and Zhou Xiaojing would pack up and go back to their remote mountain village.
It was really that her master, Mr. Shen, was so powerful that he cut off all of Zhou Xiaojing's escape routes in the capital with just one move.
After what happened, who would marry her?
Chunhua's mother thought about her grandparents who had died more than 20 years ago thousands of times before she could hold back her laughter.
As long as these two evils can be removed, what does a little cake and two bottles of good wine matter? Here, Wang Daju thought about it and weighed the pros and cons for a long time.
Since they can't become in-laws, there's no need for her to be polite.
"We're almost going to have the wedding, and you're calling off the engagement. How can my daughter get married in the future?" Wang Daju spoke again, no longer in the good temper she had before.
"Are you preparing to open your mouth exorbitantly?!" Sun Zhongqin sneered.
You're talking so much nonsense just to get a few more dollars.
The grief and indignation that had just been brewing on Wang Daju's face froze, and a trace of embarrassment at having her dirty thoughts seen through flashed in her eyes.
She originally just wanted the Lai family to take the initiative to increase the compensation, but she didn't expect Sun Zhongqin to bring this matter to light.
Wang Daju had been through a lot, so she quickly calmed down. "You guys want to cancel the engagement right before the wedding. This is wrong of yours..."
Wang Daju paused for a moment, perhaps because she felt a little embarrassed, before she spoke again, "What's wrong with you...giving us some compensation?"
"Didn't we give you compensation?" Sun Zhongqin glanced at the big unity banners that Wang Daju swept to the ground.
"Fifty yuan is not enough for such a big thing as breaking off an engagement," Wang Daju stiffened his neck.
"Then how much do you want?" Sun Zhongqin curled his lips sarcastically.
She wanted to see how big this shrew's lion mouth could open.
"At least four hundred yuan." Wang Daju said the number he had been thinking about for a long time.
As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell into silence.
Four hundred...
Sun Zhongqin laughed angrily.
Even if her daughter were to be sold piece by piece, including the skin and bones, she wouldn't be able to sell for 400 yuan! Chunhua's mother was obviously shocked.
Is this woman mad?
The betrothal gift for marrying a wife was only 200 yuan, but she wanted 400 yuan to cancel the engagement? !
Zhou Xiaodong also frowned.
His mother didn't learn anything since coming to the capital, but she became much more arrogant.
For a young man in their village to get married, a hundred yuan is the maximum dowry he can ask for.
Breaking off the engagement, she actually wants four hundred? !
Does his mother think he is a fool? "Wang Daju, if you don't want to talk about it, then let's not talk about it. Four hundred yuan is enough to marry two daughters-in-law..." Sun Zhongqin deliberately glanced at Zhou Xiaojing beside him.
This sinister and cruel look almost scared Zhou Xiaojing to death.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Enough to marry two daughters-in-law...
These words made Wang Daju feel very nervous.
It's obvious that Sun Zhongqin is not a good person. If you really make her angry, she will not cancel the engagement.
If my daughter enters their house, she will...
I don’t know what Wang Daju was thinking about, but her face suddenly became very ugly.
Seeing that her mother didn't say anything, Zhou Xiaojing thought that her mother was still thinking about the 400 yuan, so she hugged Wang Daju's arm and cried, "Mom, I don't want to marry Lai Yiming."
Money is not as important as life! Besides, if you have lost your life, what good is all the money? Wang Daju was already feeling anxious, and Zhou Xiaojing's crying softened her heart.
But she couldn't swallow the 50 yuan compensation.
"One hundred yuan, you have to give me one hundred yuan no matter what, otherwise you can do whatever you want." Wang Daju gritted her teeth.
Sun Zhongqin smiled sarcastically, took out five big unity notes from his pocket and placed them on the coffee table in front of Wang Daju.
I don’t know if she was afraid that Sun Zhongqin would go back on her word, but Wang Daju grabbed the Big Unity on the coffee table, then quickly bent down and picked up the five Big Unitys that she had swept to the ground. Her movements were so smooth and quick that they were comparable to those in Hollywood action movies.
Sun Zhongqin raised his chin slightly, his eyes full of contempt and disdain from beginning to end.
Wang Daju didn't care what the people in the room thought. She checked the Great Unity notes one by one to make sure none of them were fake. She counted them carefully twice and confirmed again that the number was correct before putting the money into her pocket.
Sun Zhongqin saw Wang Daju put the money into his pocket, then he slowly stood up.
"Don't ever say we know each other again."
Lai Changshan smiled apologetically at Chunhua's mother and stood up as well.
Chunhua's mother held back her laughter and sent the two of them out the door.
Liu Chunhua was also very happy.
Wang Daju and Zhou Xiaojing no longer had an excuse to stay in Beijing.
"Mom, when are you leaving? I'll go buy you tickets." Zhou Xiaodong frowned as he looked at his mother who took out the Great Unity to look at it again, his eyes filled with annoyance.
If we let them stay, who knows what trouble they will cause.
"Brother, what do you mean? Mom and I just arrived and you want to drive us away. Do you dislike us so much?" Zhou Xiaojing pouted.
While speaking, he pushed Wang Daju's arm as if seeking help.
"There's nothing to do in the fields recently, and we'll be idle when we go back." Wang Daju lowered her head and checked the big unity one by one, without raising her head. (End of this chapter)
