Chapter 111 Breaking off the Engagement
After seeing Li Langzhong off, Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but wipe her tears again.
What kind of sin have I committed to marry such a daughter-in-law? What should I do after success?
During that blind date, I clearly saw that Chu Man was pretty good, with a smile on her face and a sweet mouth. However, she seemed to be a different person once she got married.
Moreover, her biological father is the village leader of Chujia Village, and he is considered highly respected in the local area. His children should not be too bad no matter what.
Even when they got engaged, they didn't see anything wrong. The Chu family also looked sensible and only said that her daughter had been spoiled since she was a child and couldn't do hard work.
I didn't take this sentence seriously, because I was marrying a daughter-in-law, not a working cow. It didn't matter whether my daughter-in-law could work, as long as she could live a good life with Dacheng.
It's unimaginable. Something happened to her on the day she got married.
It’s okay for the bride’s eldest brother to overturn the wine table, just think that he is young and energetic and drunk.
But the new daughter-in-law smashed her son's head in that night and kicked him out of the new house.
If that woman's hand had been heavier, wouldn't her son have been hit by that pillow?
The more Jiang Zhou thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.
no! She was going to find her third younger brother and sister to talk about what to do about this matter.
Mrs. Zhou locked the door of her son's room, thought for a moment, and then went to close the door of her new house. Then she came to Jiang Sanlang's house and cried to her third brother and sister about her depression.
"I really regret that I didn't wait for Da Lang to come back before getting engaged to Dacheng. It was really not a good idea to make such a hasty decision."
Mrs. Zhou wiped away her tears and said, "His third aunt, what do you think we should do?"
Chun Niang couldn't make up her mind either.
There might have been room for change if she didn't pick up the bride in the first place, but now she has already married and gone home, unless some reason can be found to send the bride back to her parents' home.
But if we just send it back like this, can the Chu family agree?
"Sister-in-law, didn't you ask what Dacheng means?" Chun Niang asked.
Mrs. Zhou sighed: "What else can he mean? He almost lost his life before the wedding. How dare he get close to her in the future?"
Chun Niang thought for a while and said, "How about using Dacheng's injury as an excuse to ask the Chu family to come and pick him up."
Zhou was stunned, "Can it still be like this?"
"Why can't this be like this? That girl from the Chu family almost killed our Dacheng. Who doesn't know who sent the bride off from the Chu family yesterday?"
That's why they hurriedly left early the next morning without daring to mention any conditions. This was probably because they were afraid that the Jiang family would argue with them.
"What...what if they don't come to pick me up?" Zhou was hesitant.
Chun Niang: "Then tell the Chu family, if they don't come to pick you up, we will report it to the officials, and the officials will decide."
On the wedding night, she smashed the groom into serious injuries. No one's family could tolerate such a daughter-in-law.
Zhou gritted her teeth and said, "Okay! I'm going to discuss it with Dalang and ask him to find someone to deliver the message to Chujia Village."
This matter is not trivial, and I have to find two respected elders to intimidate him.
At this time, Yingbao poked her head out from the side and whispered: "Auntie, I will prepare some medicine for brother Dacheng so that he can sleep well these days. Just tell the family that brother Dacheng is unconscious. In this way, we have a greater chance of winning.”
Brother Dacheng was injured on the head and needed more sleep. This move killed two birds with one stone.
"Okay, that's what I'll tell Dalang."
Ms. Zhou got up to say goodbye, went to the next door to call Dani back, and asked her to go home and take care of her brother Dacheng, while she hurried to the old house.
When Chun Niang saw her sister-in-law leaving, she turned around and glared at her daughter, "We adults are discussing things, why do you, a little kid, get in the way? If your Dacheng brother regrets one day, wouldn't it be your fault?"
Ying Bao: "I'm not afraid of his blame! And Brother Dacheng won't regret it."
Chun Niang stretched out her finger and poked her daughter's forehead: "How old are you, what do you know!"
Only things between men and women in the world are most uncertain.
Dacheng had just gotten married. If he couldn't let go of the girl from the Chu family and ran to take her back, his daughter would be no longer a human being.
"I'm already four years old and I know everything." Ying Bao said with a smile, covering her forehead.
Chun Niang was speechless.
In the afternoon, Yingbao brought Jiang Cheng a bowl of dark, bitter concoction and watched him drink it and fall asleep before jumping home.
The new daughter-in-law, Chu Man, did not leave the house all day, and Dani served both meals.
At noon the next day, someone from the Chu family finally came.
This time, it was not the ones who came to see off the bride, but three older men.
The three of them first went to visit the injured Jiang Cheng.
I saw that the young man's head was wrapped with thick cotton cloth, his eyes were black and his face was pale, lying motionless on the kang, which looked very scary.
An old man stretched out his finger to feel his pulse, his expression gradually becoming serious.
Turning to an old man with a long beard, he shook his head and sighed, "The child was seriously injured. Man Niang really went too far."
The old man with a long beard became furious when he heard this. He turned around and left the house. He bowed to Jiang Dalang and Mr. Zhou in the courtyard and said, "I'm really sorry. It's an old man who doesn't know how to teach his son. He allowed him to pamper Manniang like this. Old man Now I will take Manniang back and discipline her well, but I will ask my father-in-law to think carefully about breaking off the engagement."
Jiang Dalang raised his hand to help: "Mr. Chu, it's not that I don't think about it, it's about my son's life. My family must never want another daughter-in-law here."
The old man with a long beard looked very unhappy, but he still insisted: "In this case, we will take Man Niang back, but the marriage between our two families will remain the same. Anyway, the son and Man Niang are not married. How about choosing someone else to marry the son?"
When Jiang Dalang heard this, he waved his hands quickly: "It's impossible, it's not possible, what's the point of it?"
Just kidding, after finally giving away a giant Buddha, I can't stand it if I later create a Sky Monkey for his family.
The matchmaker who was following him smiled and said, "This is a good suggestion from Grand Duke Chu. Brother Jiang should agree to it. The Chu family has several young ladies of the right age, all with good looks."
Jiang Zhou, who was standing aside, couldn't help but roll her eyes at the matchmaker.
It was this guy who replaced the horoscope in Matchmaker Shen's hand with Chu Man's, and swore to heaven that Chu Man had first-rate looks, a good family background, and his father was Muramasa, so he was moved.
It would be a mistake to believe him now.
At this time, Chu Man was called out. As soon as he saw the person coming, he ran over and shouted: "Grandpa, you are finally here, wuwuwuwu... The Jiang family is bullying me, I want to go home."
"Okay!" The long-bearded old man looked at her coldly with his hands behind his hands, "Go and pack your clothes and come back with me!"
Chu Man was very happy when she heard this. She burst into laughter immediately and turned around and ran back to the house to pack her things.
She didn't want to stay in this damn place for a day, and it was best to never come back.
Chu Man packed carefully, not only filling a box with her own clothes, but also stuffing the clothes and jewelry from the Jiang family's wedding into the box.
Then he looked around again and stuffed several new sets of Jiang Cheng's clothes into the suitcase, ready to take them back to his brother.
Dani stood at the door and stared for a long time. She couldn't help but walked into the house, reached out and pulled out her eldest brother's clothes, and said coldly: "You can only take your own clothes with you. You are not allowed to take away my eldest brother's."
A blind man can understand what this woman has planned. She wants to take everything in the house back to her parents' house.
Humph, I was already planning to break off the engagement, how could I let her do whatever she wanted.
"There are also these jewelry, take them out too!" Dani opened the red lacquered wooden box and competed with Chu Man for the jewelry box. "My eldest brother bought these, you are not allowed to take them away!"
