The fat peasant girl wants to counterattack

Chapter 23
Although she was embarrassed by Mrs. Wang's rebuke, she couldn't forget the business. Zhang readjusted her mentality and said with great difficulty, "Sister-in-law, I really can't say this, but there's nothing I can do about it."

Mrs. Zhang paused after speaking and waited for Mrs. Wang to answer, but the other party just stared at her with no intention of answering.

Mrs. Zhang cursed in her heart, you are such a dead old woman who only makes people uncomfortable.

"I dreamed about my child's father last night. I don't remember what his father said to me. Anyway, it was related to the future of my marriage. I really don't feel at ease. I went to the temple today to draw lots and have my fortune told. , Oh my God, I have never drawn a lot in my life except for the year when my child’s father died.”

Mrs. Zhang is still a little frightened when she thinks about it now, and she started sobbing due to the force. She looked so pitiful.

"When I was drawing lots, I thought that the Bodhisattva would bless the marriage of my two children smoothly, but I didn't expect that it would be a lucky draw. I didn't give up, so I went to the old monk to tell my fortune. The old monk asked me not to He wanted to force it, and he also said that the two children are in conflict with each other, and there will be no good results from being together, and it will also hinder the child's future." Although Mrs. Zhang was sobbing, it did not affect her speech.

"Old sister-in-law, I feel so bad. Mingzhu is such a good child. I love her from the bottom of my heart, but Bodhisattva won't let them be together. What do you think I should do?" After saying that, he started to cry bitterly, and his parents also cried after they died. That’s it.

Mrs. Wang spoke now, with a sullen face: "Sister, what you said is wrong. You said that the two children have different horoscopes. Why are they not compatible? You want me to say that my daughter is very lucky. Before your family Pengfei I failed to pass the Tongsheng exam twice, but I passed the exam after getting engaged to my Zhuzhu. This is not because of my Zhuzhu’s blessing. Now that Pengfei has passed the Tongsheng exam, he has turned his back and turned his back on me, rolling his eyes ungratefully. Wolf, if anything goes wrong with your family from now on, don’t blame my daughter, because my daughter can’t bear the blame.”

When the villagers heard this, they realized that this was true.

When Mrs. Zhang came in crying, Mrs. Wang asked her daughter to stay in the room and not come out. It was better for her not to get involved in such a situation, as she was affecting her performance.

As soon as Mrs. Zhang heard that her son was not doing well, she immediately stopped crying, "Look at what the old sister-in-law said. Pengfei couldn't pass the exam because he was young in the past. Going to the exam was just a formality. Now the time has come. Just passed the exam, it doesn’t matter whether you are lucky or not, it’s all about the children’s hard work.”

Mrs. Zhang firmly disagrees with the idea that her son has taken advantage of the Moon Pearl. What kind of luck can that lazy, fat, silly girl have? It's best if she can get her reputation as a husband today and not be able to get married.

Mrs. Zhang sighed, and continued: "To be honest, since the two children got engaged, I have been in pain all over my body. I feel uncomfortable everywhere, and I can't wake up when I do anything. I went to see the doctor, and the doctor also I didn’t say anything, I didn’t know what was going on before, but today the old monk reminded me, it’s just an engagement.”

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she quit. She could break off the engagement, but she must not damage her daughter's reputation. She immediately cursed: "Fuck your mother, it's your own fault. Pengfei's father was conquered by you at a young age." He's dead, why don't you say it's your fault? You'll pretend to be pitiful. Other people's families are blessed with many children. Look at you, you gave birth to one. Not only are you unlucky, but you're also wicked. You've already overcome yourself, and you still want to frame my daughter, so don't talk nonsense, just say what you want to do."

Madam Zhang felt aggrieved, you old woman, you have scolded her for a long time, but you have scolded her enough. Now she said stop talking nonsense. Madam Zhang wanted to scold her back, but for the sake of the overall situation and her son, she had to endure it and be able to break off the engagement. That's a good thing.

"Sister-in-law, don't be angry, I didn't mean it that way. As the old saying goes, it's better to believe something is real than to believe nothing. For the sake of the two children, it's better to call off the marriage. If anything goes wrong with the two children, It's too late for us mothers to regret it. They are both good children. After breaking off the engagement, we will marry each other. What do you think?" Ms. Zhang licked her face and said all her good things. She was afraid that Mrs. Wang would not agree. She looked the same as before. Arrogant looks vary widely.Mrs. Wang was relieved, but she refused to let Mrs. Zhang off easily: "You said it lightly, but you want to call off the marriage just because of your few words? Your Pengfei is a boy, so don't be afraid. Our Zhuzhu is a girl. We are innocent." The big girl in vain has lost her reputation like this, tell me what to do."

Mrs. Zhang said in her heart that she really would not let go easily.

"Don't worry, after we break off the engagement, I will never mention the fact that the two children were engaged. Mingzhu is a good child, but she has no fate with my family. This child has been wronged. I will compensate her with four acres of land as a gift for future marriage." I, the aunt, added makeup to her."

When the villagers heard this, they thought Zhang was really generous. Ordinary families couldn't give so much to their daughter, so it wouldn't be a loss if Mingzhu broke off the engagement.

"Bah! You still have the nerve to say that. You are still shameless. Since the two children got engaged, you have been eating and drinking from my family. If nothing else, you took it from me when Pengfei took the child test last year. Ten taels of silver, plus the bits and pieces from before, there must be at least more than 20 taels. I'm keeping the accounts for you. Four acres of land is not enough to return to my family. I also compensate Mingzhu, so you can make up for it."

Mrs. Wang unceremoniously took off Zhang's fig leaf, leaving no face at all.

The villagers were in an uproar. Yue Pengfei was barging in. It was just an engagement. He had spent so much money on his fiancée's family. It only cost ten taels of silver to take the county exam. Ten taels of silver was more than enough to marry a big girl.

Mrs. Zhang's face turned red with embarrassment, "You can't say it so harshly. My family's conditions are like that. This is all I can give. If I have more, I will definitely give it to Mingzhu. That's not true." Stingy." Poor.

The old lady didn't accept this trick: "Don't follow me. It's natural to pay back debts. I don't want more. Just give me back as much as you take from me, so as not to let people say anything." I've made my daughter rich, so you can give me back 25 taels of silver, 200 kilograms of grain, and 20 feet of fine cotton to make Pengfei's clothes."

Mrs. Zhang's face turned green when she heard this. How could she afford it? "Sister-in-law, how can there be so many? Did you remember it wrong?"

"You think I am you, living by being a rogue. Boss, go to my room and take out the account book. I will write it down for you one by one." Mrs. Wang has a habit of keeping accounts, although she doesn't know much about reading. , but has a unique bookkeeping habit, and can't make a single mistake.

Mrs. Zhang became even more panicked when she heard this. This old lady was quite a thief and very calculating. She had been on guard against her for a long time.

"Sister-in-law, you don't need to bring the account book. I believe you. We are all fellow villagers. Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Why do we need to calculate so carefully? When my family Pengfei makes a fortune in the future, he will never forget the goodness of your family." Mrs. Zhang attempted moral kidnapping. Mrs. Wang also wants to draw a pie.
