Zhou Wanwan's face turned pale when she heard Zhou's father's words. She looked at Tang Luoyu helplessly, as if she had only noticed at this moment that this cousin's position in her heart was so important.

"Biao, cousin..." Her voice was a little low, and she looked at Tang Luoyu timidly.

Tang Luoyu pulled Xue Lince up and was about to go out. When he turned his head, he did not forget to shoot in front of Mrs. Zhou: "Mrs. Zhou, since this is your family matter, it is inconvenient for the two of us to say anything, so we will leave first."

"Yes, yes," after Zhou finished speaking, she suddenly realized that the two of them were about to leave, and she realized instantly that she wanted to persuade them to stay but didn't know what to say, so she could only look at them dumbly, stretching out her hands at a loss He said, "It's getting so late here, don't you guys..."

"Don't bother Mrs. Zhou." Tang Luoyu raised one corner of his mouth, first glanced at Zhou Wanwan who was sitting on the side, his eyes were full of contempt, and then looked at the Zhou family, "There are also many inns in the left and right cities, my Tang family Although it is a merchant, it does not lack the money to live in the shop.”

After finishing speaking, he didn't say anything else to Mrs. Zhou, and pulled Xue Lince away.

"Miss." The maids were already waiting by the car after eating, Baoqin came up and said, "Uncle Zhang has already booked the inn, just waiting for you and my uncle to go over."

Tang Luoyu looked at the maid in front of her with satisfaction, thinking that she had never seen her so smart before, but now that she came out this trip, she discovered this malleable talent: "Yes, you can lead the way."

Baoqin got into the carriage with several people, and arrived at the inn not long after.

"So soon, I thought it would take a while longer." Ke Ran and Chai Jin were sitting in the lobby of the inn having dinner, and seeing Tang Luoyu and Xue Lince come in, Ke Ran asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Eat." Tang Luoyu sat down next to them with a smile, and also pulled Xue Lince to sit down, teasing, "After all, they are relatives, as the so-called aunts and relatives are relatives from generation to generation, breaking bones and connecting tendons, even if uncle and Lin Ce do If it’s not Weng’s son-in-law, then you can’t even ignore the meal.”

Hearing this, Xue Lince smiled and shook his head, picked up the teapot on the table and poured Tang Luoyu a glass of water: "Good lady, stop joking with me."

Chai Jin glanced at Tang Luoyu, and said with disdain: "Brother Xue, why do you keep on giving up on such an eloquent woman?"

"Brother Chai..." Xue Lince felt a little helpless, Chai Jin and Tang Luoyu were good friends, so these words were naturally meant to be flattering, but it was difficult for him to answer.

"Hey, you're really good," Tang Luoyu looked at Ke Ran, "Look at his broken mouth, what kind of medicine do you have in there, feed him quickly, so you don't have to grumble every day."

Ke Ran didn't disagree, just smiled and listened to their bickering, and continued to eat and drink.

The Zhou family on the other side.

"Mother..." After Tang Luoyu and Xue Lince left, the stepmother's younger brothers and sisters left first, and only Zhou Wanwan and the Zhou family were left sitting at the table.

"What's the use of calling me Miss?" Zhou glanced at Zhou Wanwan, she had met Zhou Wanwan's mother before, she was really a pretty woman, and the daughter she gave birth was also good-looking, but what's the use of being good-looking?

He said disdainfully: "This marriage was personally rejected by your cousin, and your aunt had no choice but to let him send you back. Now it is your father who wants to ration you to Master Sun. Why are you calling me now? "

After Mrs. Zhou finished speaking, she remembered Zhou Wanwan's fight with her when she was still at home, and became angry: "Also, let me tell you, what's wrong with Master Sun? Are you Dreaming of being a lady, you have to be happy, don't you have a big head and a big hat, don't dream about those things all day long."

Zhou Wanwan bit her lip, with tears rolling in her eyes: "Mother, I don't want to marry my cousin, it's just...that Mr. Sun is a few years older than Dad, what should I do..."

"What's wrong with being older than your father?" Mrs. Zhou snorted coldly, "This is a good marriage that can't be found even with a lantern. Your father has already gone to ask people about it. I advise you not to have other thoughts. At that time, it will be ugly in both directions."

"But..." Zhou Wanwan was unwilling to marry such an elderly widower, even if she had money, because his sons were even older than her.

It's just that Mrs. Zhou didn't intend to continue to argue with her, so she got up and left the dinner table, leaving Zhou Wanwan sitting there alone, lost in thought.

She regrets it very much now, if she had listened to Xue Lince's words before and married his classmate, wouldn't her father force her to marry an old widower now...

But there is no one who sells regret medicine in this world, and they can only take one step at a time.

Soon, Father Zhou came back from the outside. Seeing that only his daughter was left at the dinner table, sitting there wondering what he was thinking, he couldn't help but froze.

"Where's your cousin? Why didn't you keep them here?" Father Zhou asked casually, put some things on the table, and looked at Zhou Wanwan suspiciously.

"Let's go..." Zhou Wanwan heard that the thing was heavy, and it made a dull sound when it was placed on the table. It looked like silver, and she dared not look at her father, "Father, you really want to marry me to grandson... "

"Why did you just leave? You mother can't do anything." After Zhou's father finished speaking, Zhou Shi came out of the house, and when he heard his words, he spoke in displeasure.

"Master, what are you talking about? He is the master of Juren, and there is a rich Yue family with legs growing on his body. How can I keep it?" Mrs. Zhou came over and opened the cloth towel on the table. Yin Zi, "Hey, this is a full 20 taels. The Sun family has already decided?"

"It's settled," Zhou's father said, not as if he had made an engagement for his daughter, but as if he had just sold pork. "It's just a set money, and it will be delivered after the bride price."

Then he looked at his daughter, with a smile on his face: "You have grown up too, it's time to start a family, father sees that Mr. Sun is very good, he promised to give you 50 taels as a bride price, when the time comes, father Bring you a dowry of twelve taels."

After finishing speaking, he felt something wrong with himself, cleared his throat and continued: "You look like your mother, and you are very handsome. After you get married, you should obey the three rules and four virtues. If you serve Master Sun well, he will naturally not treat you badly. "

Zhou Wanwan felt cold inside and outside the words.

This is my own father, who almost sold himself to an old widower for 50 taels.

It is said that it is a dowry of twelve taels, so what is it?If you don't even bring back the bride price, doesn't that make it clear that you sold yourself to that person?

Zhou Wanwan closed her eyes, her heart ached until she almost lost consciousness, she didn't know how to escape from this cage.

She thought of Tang Luoyu.

Now it seems that only my sister-in-law can save me from the fire...
