"Oh, what you are saying sarcastically, if this happened in the past, it would indeed be a good thing.
But can the situation be the same now? If it falls on you, can you agree? "
The person who first brought up the topic shut up, took a step back, and stopped talking.
He actually felt that he was just a son, a loser who was going to get married anyway. Now he could still be exchanged for money, so why wasn't it good?
Maybe it can be of some use to my parents’ family in the future!
The village chief stared at the old lady of the Chen family, "Where is the money?"
When the village chief asked for money, the old man of the Chen family was not happy. He rolled his eyes and said, "What money? There is no money!"
That was his eldest granddaughter's life-saving money, how could he hand it over?
Moreover, they have all been returned to the gambling house and are gone.
It's just a loser. If you sell it, you can sell it. It can still be of some use. If you keep it at home, it will be a waste of food.
For someone like him, even if he marries in the future, he won't be able to marry into a good family, but now he can still exchange for some money.
"You, a man, have no right to interrupt what a woman is saying! Mrs. Chen Wang, if you act like this again, I will let you divorce me and go back to your Wang family."
I heard that the village chief wanted his wife to divorce him. Mr. Chen calmly calmed down.
He was still unconvinced in his heart. He had not made any mistakes. He had raised children for the Chen family and had taken care of them all his life. Why should the old Chen family divorce him?
But now it was obvious that he had angered the village chief. Forget it, he would just endure it and see what the village chief said.
Seeing that Mrs. Chen pursed her lips and stopped talking, the village chief looked at Old Mrs. Chen and said, "Sixth, what do you want me to ask you? Where's the money?"
This is indeed something you, the elders, are doing in an unethical manner. You want to show your respect to the younger ones, that’s fine.
But this matter must be approved by his mother. What does it mean to sell the second boy like this?
Take out the money and return it to the Mu family. "
The village chief has seen how Chen Laosan and his family came here over the years.
In her heart, she was indeed partial to Chen Laosan's family and wanted to help.
Another thing is that this marriage in the Mu family is really inappropriate.
The second son of the third family is only fifteen years old. He is so young. How could he ruin his life like this?
As soon as they heard that they had to pay back the money, not only the Chen family but also the Mu family refused to do it.
"Village Chief Chen, that's not what you said. They have collected all the money and written the marriage certificate. That is fifty taels of silver in vain. How can they just withdraw it?
Are you treating our Mu family like monkeys? We really think there is no one in our Mu family! "
It was not easy to find someone who was willing to marry his son to their second daughter, and Mr. Mu would not let him go so easily.
She still doesn't know if she can find the next one later, but she can't wait too long and leave her second daughter alone with no one to take care of her.
When they heard that it was fifty taels of silver, the villagers exploded.
Fifty taels is not a small amount. They can only earn a few taels of silver throughout the year. If they can collect fifty taels, they may not be able to get enough in their lifetime.
"I didn't expect the Mu family to be so generous. The son of Chen Laosan's family looks like that. Even if he can get a dowry gift of two or three taels of silver, it would be good. This is fifty taels!"
"How many young men can this buy? It's no wonder that the Chen family is so generous."
How many people can be unmoved when faced with fifty taels of silver?
Those who have some conscience can still think that they are selling, and what they are selling is a life!
It sounds nice to say that you are married, but what will it be like after you get married? How long can the Mu family live for him?
I'm afraid I won't survive today.
It's not like they hadn't heard of it before. Who could have kept the new husband alive after seeing such a thing? That's all selling your life!
"Didn't something like this happen in the first half of the year? It was the Gong family, do you know?"
"Then the Gong family boy is still alive and well. Maybe the Mu family is as kind as the Li family?"
In any case, this matter is still a bit disturbing.
Old Mrs. Chen still didn't speak, lowered her head and looked at her toes.
Her husband is in charge of all the money in the family. For so many years, there has been no major matter in the family that she can make the decision about.
What she said was always incomprehensible.
In this case, she thought it would be better to keep her mouth shut and leave the matter to her husband.
Isn’t this how it’s been for so many years?
Sure enough, Chen Wang lived up to expectations and started howling again.
"What money can I give back? That money has been spent long ago. It's gone. What can I pay back?"
Everyone was in an uproar, spent? That's a full fifty taels of silver.
It’s only been a few days and the flowers are gone!
"Haha, I'm afraid Mr. Lin really got it right, right? It must have been used to pay off the gambling debt of the big house."
"Hmph! Their daughter spends her whole day hanging out in gambling houses in the town. There is no one there who won't lose everything."
"The Chen family didn't go bankrupt when they moved into a big house. They've been doing fine for so many years!"
"Hmph! Who do they rely on? Why don't they let the third family member of the Chen family go bankrupt for them?"
"My heart is getting darker and darker now.
They have all reached the point of selling their sons and daughters, which is a full fifty taels of silver. "
"But in exchange for selling Chen Cai's life, let him use the money generously to pay off his gambling debts, but it cost people's lives."
The comments made by the villagers made the old lady of the Chen family even more embarrassed and angry, and her head lowered.
Mrs. Chen Wang raised her arm, pointed at the crowd, and scolded them all.
"You guys have nothing to do when you are full. What does our old Chen family's affairs have to do with you? Did you take your family's money? Or did you sell your son?
If you don't go back to bed quickly when you have some free time, you are really a dog trying to get rid of a mouse, and you are meddling in other people's business. "
His scolding offended everyone in the village.
There are also those who are not afraid of trouble. Chen Wang is used to playing tricks, but there are also those who are not afraid of him.
"You yourself have done such an unscrupulous thing and don't let others talk about it. If you are really so reasonable, you can tell us and we will listen."
"I'm really a bastard. I'm not afraid of going to hell or being put in a frying pan."
"What does it have to do with you if I can't get out of the frying pan? Get out, get out!"
"Some people come and stop Wang Chen's mouth!"
The village chief finally couldn't stand listening any more, so he sent people up to tie up Chen Wang Shicheng and gag him again.
This is the only way to deal with such a rambunctious old man.
The village chief and several clan elders discussed it and all came to Mrs. Chen, "Lao Liu, what do you think we should do about this matter today?"
By this time, Mrs. Chen knew that she could no longer avoid it and could only face it bravely.
"This matter has already come to this, what else can we do? The money was indeed used to pay off the gambling debts to the boss, and there is not even a copper left, and we still haven't come out."
When Chen Laosan's family heard that not a single coin was left, they immediately collapsed to the ground and couldn't even cry.
What should I do? But what to do?
The village chief raised his hand and pointed at the Chen family's eldest son and his wife, "What do you two say about this? It's just to pay off the gambling debts of your eldest son."
The eldest son of the Chen family was hesitant and speechless, and turned to look at her husband.
When Yan Shi faced the village chief and clan elders, he was not as confident as his father-in-law.
After all, he is a junior, and judging from the appearance of the old village chief, he has no intention of helping their family in this matter today.
"Village chief, clan elder, our family is really out of money.
Actually, it’s okay to just let Chen Cai marry him. Think about it, the Chen family is also married to a husband!
Wouldn't Gong Baochun be fine when he arrives at the Chen family?
The Mu family seems to be a good family at first glance, how can they treat our children badly? It was not as serious as they said, and it was nothing that drove their Cai'er to death. "
The Mu family didn't answer. Only they knew what they were thinking and discussing.
Marrying a husband for his daughter must be to serve her daughter, otherwise how could their family be willing to give such a dowry of fifty taels.
Not just to buy Chen Cai'er's life!
Everyone looked at the Mu family's silence and knew that they must be paying attention.
Otherwise, they would definitely come out at this time and follow Yan's words and treat Chen Cai'er as they please.
But they didn't.
Mrs. Yan herself was a little confused, and she laughed twice.
Chen Laosan's family looked ashen, "Village chief, clan elders, you must make the decision for my Cai'er. They are all raised by father and mother. Who has my Cai'er wronged?"
Who did our family feel sorry for, so we had to let Cai'er go? "
"Our Mingyu family has already made an engagement. How can one man marry two wives? We still want this little bit of dignity!
What's more, the wife of our family, Ming Yuding, is a future scholar. "
Face? Does the eldest son of the Chen family still want face?
Do they have it?
And what he said was obviously to use this future scholar to suppress the village chief and clan elders.
It's just that he treats people as fools. The future scholar is only a matter of the future. Whether he can pass the exam is another matter.
What's more, she is just the daughter-in-law of their Chen family, what else can she do for their village in the future?
Can their village still be able to match it? What benefits can you gain?
He also takes his own family and their Mingyu too seriously!
"Boss, your family still has more than ten acres of land, right?"
As soon as the village chief mentioned their land, Yan immediately screamed: "No, that land is the lifeblood of our family. If we sell the land, what can we eat and drink?"
The village chief has a headache, this Yan family is similar to the Wang family.
"Your family has more than ten acres of land. You can't sell it all. What's left is enough for your family to eat and drink."
"I don't agree. I will fight with anyone who dares to sell our land.
Anyway, I don't care. Regarding this matter, it is clearly written in the marriage certificate that if Chen Cai of their family marries the Mu family, let Chen Cai go.
The marriage certificate has been written, but the names of the two of them are on it. Maybe they have already been registered, so how can they change it?
Anyway, this matter is now a foregone conclusion, there is no way.
If anyone wants to change it, then go down alone and find an adult to change it. Whoever has the ability can go, but I won’t go anyway. "
Yan's
To put it this way, it's just a fool's errand. Who can go there?
Can a living person go to that place?
Let’s not talk about whether it can be changed. Can we come back after we go?
However, when he said this, many people were stunned.
In a place like that, taboos are very taboo, so can you talk about it casually?
This time in the middle of the night sounded alarming.
The Wang family members all looked at Gu Chao next to them. There was someone who could go next to them.
Mrs. Wang thought for a while, then came to the front village chief and whispered a few words in the village chief's ear.
Then the village chief looked outside the yard and looked in this direction. After discussing with several clan elders around him, they walked outside together.
For a moment, no one in the village realized what was going on? What is the situation?
However, they all took the initiative to make way for them.
The village chief and several clan elders came to Gu Chao, looked her up and down, and made sure that there was no difference between this person and the legendary Gu Chao, and then they raised their hands to Gu Chao.
"Director Gu, I didn't expect that Director Gu would be here today, but it made Director Gu laugh."
The village chiefs, all of whom were so old, saluted her. Gu Chao quickly raised his hands and bowed in return.
"The village chief and several elders are too polite, just call me Gu Chao.
Today I was invited by Lao Wang's family to come over, but I didn't expect to encounter this. "
Seeing that Gu Chao was so easy to talk to, several people looked at her high.
The village chief did not hesitate and got down to business directly, "I wonder if Daoist Gu can do something about this?
You have also seen that Chen Laosan's family is indeed pitiful. If possible, please ask Director Gu to help. "
Gu Chao nodded slightly. The village chief was overjoyed and said, "Master Gu, please come in."
"Whatever Director Gu needs, we will prepare it right now."
"Show me the marriage certificate first."
The marriage certificate was in the hands of the Mu family. They were beating in their hearts at this moment. It was already a done deal. But now the Chen family was about to turn against each other. If he gave the marriage certificate to Gu Chao again, the matter would probably turn into a scandal.
Now the marriage certificate is the certificate in his hand and cannot be given.
Moreover, they had also heard that this Gu Chao Daoist Master was a man of real ability.
What if she really breaks off the marriage?
However, they couldn't afford to offend Gu Chao.
As a result, Mr. Mu changed his previous attitude and began to behave miserably.
"Daozhang Gu, you have also seen this. They came to our house to marry their son to our family, but the Chen family was not forced by our Mu family.
Moreover, we hired a matchmaker and acted according to normal rules. We did not mess around. You are also a sensible person and you all know this.
Now it is the Chen family who has taken our money and wants to fall out again. This is the Chen family's own dishonesty. We, the Mu family, are the victims. "
Originally, this kind of thing was about mutual consent, and the Mu family was right. They did things according to the rules and didn't force anyone. As a result, not only did they not get anything out of them, but they also got involved with someone else, which was also an injustice.
