CHAPTER XVII

When the Qian family went out, there were already many villagers gathered at the gate to see the excitement, and Qian Yin cried even more when he saw those who were pointing at him. Qian Dashan held the wooden stick that stirred tofu in his hand, and said to Du Qiyue with a flushed face: "Du family boy, don't go too far, our Qian family has no sorry for your other party, you come to the door without evidence, I will definitely have a good fight with you!" You said that our Brother Yin was sorry for you, but you said how he was sorry for you, I see, it was you who hooked up with some unserious girl brother outside, and you came to make trouble because you were unconscious and didn't want to marry our Brother Yin! ”

"Old man Qian, you are a wicked person to sue first, whether your own brother is a serious person or not, you know in your heart, don't pretend to be disgusting here!" One of Du Qiyue's clan brothers shouted angrily at Qian Dashan. This gentleman's name is Du An, he just said that he had a good family business, and he was waiting to marry a daughter-in-law in a few months, when he heard that the Qian family was going to ruin Du Qiyue's reputation, he was afraid that he would affect himself, and he was even more anxious and angry than Du Qiyue, and he couldn't hold back at this time.

"You slander my brother's reputation is a thunderstorm! You can't die well when the sky thunders! Wu Cuilan rushed out of the courtyard door, holding a broom in her hand and shouting while threatening to beat someone.

Several brothers of the Du family hurriedly blocked in front of Du Qiyue, glaring at Wu Cuilan with fierce eyes. Wu Cuilan was already weak-hearted, and her legs were a little weak when she was stared at like this. Qian Manshun hurriedly grabbed Wu Cuilan and pulled her behind him, he looked at his father and little brother who were embarrassed, and he was extremely bored, so he only blocked in front of the three of them silently.

"God has an eye, who should not split it clearly!" Du Qiyue looked at the Qian family with an entangled look, walked up and said: "Don't say something useless here, I saw Qian Yin and a merchant in the town standing on the street hooking up with my own eyes this morning, trying to calculate that I am cuckolding, and there is no door, I sue you, if people don't know, unless you don't do it!" ”

"I got married to our Du family, and now I'm hooking up with other masters, shameless!" Duane yelled.

Qian Yin's heart trembled when he heard this, he heard that Du Qiyue had been staying at home these days to keep filial piety, and he was sick and couldn't go out at all before he dared to go to the town to meet Li Sicheng, who would have thought that Du Qiyue would see it so unfortunately. However, he was glad that Du Qiyue did not make trouble when he was in the town, as long as Li Sicheng did not know that he had already made a marriage, he would do it, as for the reputation of this Liushutun Village, he couldn't care so much.

"The conscience of heaven and earth, our brother just went to the town to buy something, and after a few words with the vendors, he became a hook with others, and there is no reason in this world, everyone has to judge it!" Wu Cuilan cried with a handful of snot and tears.

Some of the surrounding villagers immediately echoed Wu Cuilan's words, saying that the little brother can't talk to the vendors when he buys things, there is no such reason in the world, and the Du family is too bullying. Several brothers of the Du family immediately replied that the Qian family was shameless, and they wanted to set up a chastity archway after doing ugly things.

After going back and forth, he pushed and shouted, seeing that if he didn't stop it, he was about to fight, Du Qiyue walked in front of Qian Manshun and said loudly to Qian Yin, who was hiding behind Qian Dashan and Wu Cuilan: "Qian Yin, if you are married to me, it is already a fact that you will hook up with other masters without marrying me, I will not want a shameless brother like you." ”

Qian Yin immediately touched a handful of tears, walked out from behind Qian Dashan with a face full of grievances, and cried: "Du Langjun, you misunderstood, I didn't do anything to be sorry for you." The day before yesterday, a gentleman met me in the town and kept pestering me, I naturally didn't follow, but his family is very powerful, and the county lord in the yamen is still a relative, how can our family afford to offend, I discussed with my father and mother, if I really can't get rid of it, I will go to Langjun's house to withdraw from the marriage.

Du Langjun, you are a scholar, and I have already climbed high with you. Your father and mother have passed away one after another, and I know that according to the rules of your scholars, you must be filial piety for three years. I am willing to wait for Lang Jun for three years, but I have been weak since I was a child, and I can't do any work outside the home, if I marry Lang Jun in the future, I will neither be able to farm well nor take care of housework, but how can I take care of Lang Jun so that Lang Jun can study hard and take the imperial examination!

Since Lang Jun said that he doesn't like me now, then I can rest assured, Lang Jun and I have divorced, and I will find a good brother who is the right person in the future. ”

Du Qiyue listened to Qian Yin's words, and she really laughed angrily. Qian Yin's words were good, and he said that Li Sicheng was a bully who robbed the women and men of a good family, and said that Du Qiyue was an unreasonable bastard, but he pushed his family's faults away, and listening to the meaning of these words, Du Qiyue wanted to thank him for taking the initiative to let Xian.

At this time, Qian Sanquan, the village chief of Liushutun, was approached, and when he heard Qian Yin's words, he immediately said: "It's just that you don't cherish such a good brother and Du family boy, and even ran to the door to slander your brother's reputation, because you are a scholar, it is really too deceitful!" ”

"Village chief, you're here, you want to administer justice for our Yin Ge'er!" Qian Dashan saw Qian Sanquan and immediately walked over and said.

"Don't worry, as the head of this village, I can't let people from other villages bully me." Qian Sanquan said.

"Then it's all up to the village chief." Qian Dashan made a gesture.

Qian Sanquan walked up to Du Qiyue with the posture of the village chief, and said with a cold face: "Du family boy, what happened Brother Yin has already made it clear, and you have also understood, I advise you not to make trouble here, and leave immediately with your brothers." As for whether to withdraw from the marriage or not, you will call the elders of the family to come over to discuss it another day, if you continue to make trouble, don't blame me for being the village head. ”

This Qian Sanquan is obviously with Qian Dashan and them, Du Qiyue didn't look at him, and only asked Qian Yin: "Qian Yin, let me ask you again, you said that you didn't divorce me because you haven't agreed to the merchant yet, right?" ”

"Du Langjun, since I have made a marriage with you, if I am not forced to do so, how can I agree to others!" Qian Yin still said with an innocent and aggrieved face.

"Okay, you said that you haven't promised the other party yet, that is, the merchant hasn't invited the matchmaker to come to your house to propose marriage, right?" Du Qiyue continued to ask.

"That's nature." Qian Yin nodded.

"Is all this true?" Du Qiyue asked.

"Of course what our brother said is true, Du family boy, whether you go or not, if you tarnish my Qian family's reputation here again, I'm welcome." Qian Dashan had Qian Sanquan as a backer, and his momentum immediately became sufficient, and he looked like he was about to beat someone with the wooden stick in his hand.

More and more people surrounded Liushutun Village, and at this time they were all shouting to drive people away, Du Qiyue was waiting for this moment, he took out the two Geng posts from his arms, spread them out and said: "Since you say that I slander people, what are these two Geng posts?" Please take a look, these two Geng posts are both money and silver, and the handwriting on them is also written by the same person. This old Geng post was written by Qian Yin when he was married to me at that time, and the name of the time on it was clearly written, and this new Geng post was written after Qian Yin hooked up with other masters, and the time written on it was half a month ago. ”

As soon as Qian Yin saw the two Geng posts, he was so frightened that he collapsed to the place, they have always been very careful in their dealings with Zhou Matchmaker, where did he think that Du Qiyue would get Geng posts as evidence. Since this Geng post has already arrived in Du Qiyue's hands, Li Sicheng must already know about it. Qian Yin only felt cold all over his body at this time, and there was only one thought in his mind, he was finished, the rich and glorious life that he looked forward to day and night was gone, and he didn't even want to marry a good man in the future.

Du Qiyue didn't mention a word about Geng Ti just now, and the Qian family thought that Du Qiyue had no evidence, but now that he took Geng Ti out, the Qian family was really panicked.

Although the people who were watching the excitement were basically illiterate, they could see if the words written on the Geng post were the same, and even if they couldn't see it, Du Qiyue spread it out and showed them where there would be fakes, so they all made a commotion all of a sudden. And the few people who were crowded in the crowd and knew the Qian family's calculations quietly ran away in disgrace.

"This is ......" Qian Sanquan just now vowed to help the Qian family get justice, but now that he was slapped in the face, he could only endure his good voice and say to Du Qiyue: "Du Langjun, you see this thing, how did it become like this, I really don't know." ”

"Village chief, this Qian family has deceived everyone, don't blame yourself. I'm going to ask you to help me do justice! Du Qiyue said sincerely.

Qian Sanquan only felt that his old face was numb, and after letting everyone be quiet, he looked at Du Qiyue and said, "Now that the matter has come out, Du Langjun, what kind of solution do you want?" ”

"I've always been a good talker, and I don't embarrass the Qian family. Since Qian Yin wants to marry the righteous king of a rich family in the town, I will not block his wealth now. Only return all the gifts I gave back then, as well as all the things I have given in the past few years, and then write a deed to show that I Du Qiyue has nothing to do with the Qian family in the future. Du Qiyue said.

"What, ask for something, you ruined our brother's reputation and wanted to blackmail our silver, your conscience was eaten by dogs!" As soon as Wu Cuilan heard that Du Qiyue wanted to return the things she had sent in the past few years, she immediately sat on the ground and patted the ground and cried, not to mention the rich marriage gift, but to say that Du Qiyue has sent a lot of things during the New Year's holidays in the past few years, which are worth a lot of money, where is she willing to take them out.

"After all the divorces, the marriage ceremony will naturally be withdrawn, we don't want you to compensate for the loss, it's already kind!" Duane jumped out and said.

Qian Sanquan still helped the Qian family in the end, and when he saw the miserable appearance of the family, he said to Du Qiyue: "The marriage gifts back then were all courteous, easy to verify, but I am afraid that the things sent by the Lang Jun family in the past few years are not clear." ”

"Naturally, it can be calculated." Du Qiyue took out a notebook from his arms and opened it and said: "In addition to the list of family gifts, what I have sent in the past few years, and how much money I spent when I bought it are all recorded in the account book one by one, and the years, months and days on it are also clearly recorded. ”

Qian Dashan saw that things had no chance to turn around, and now he could only keep a little more money, so he played a scoundrel and said: "This is something you memorized yourself, who knows how much you wrote, anyway, I can't remember anything." ”

"That's it, our family didn't receive anything from you anyway." Wu Cuilan simply lay on the ground and cried: "If you want to blackmail our family's money, you will step on me." ”

The affairs of the Qian family are now known in the whole Liushutun Village, and some people are afraid that the matter will not be solved, so they invited the old patriarch of the Qian family, Qian Xichun, to come over, the old man stood outside the crowd and listened for a long time, and then came out and said: "Du family boy, your marriage that day was also voluntary between the two families, and it is also your kindness to send things to the Qian family in the past few years." Now that Qian Yin has done something wrong, you should take back the marriage gift, but even if there is a record, I am afraid that the things you gave in the past will not be clear. You see that it is going to be dark now, and you have to walk a long way to go back, so I will let the Qian family return your marriage gift according to my wishes, old man, and you will soon end the matter after you have written the deed. ”

"Patriarch, I've never heard of a divorce to take back the marriage gift!" Qian Dashan said.

"Besides, the things in the marriage ceremony have long been used, where can I get them." Wu Cuilan also said.

Qian Xichun turned his head and glared at the two of them hatefully, the Qian family's affairs were done without him, and he only knew that the Qian family had done such an ugly thing after listening to a junior in the clan just now, and now he said that these words were sticking to his old face, and the Qian family obediently understood the matter, and now he even refutes his words, which is really shameless. "If you can't get something, you will give it money according to the price, your family has opened this tofu factory, and the silver money for a wedding gift will never be unavailable."

Qian Dashan shrank his neck after being glared, and although he was unwilling, he didn't dare to refute Qian Xichun's words.

Du Qiyue originally only wanted to get back the family gift, but when he saw that it was good, he agreed to Qian Xichun's words, "Since this is the case, the juniors will naturally obey, and only accept the things and money that will be set for the family gift." ”

So under Qian Xichun's order, Qian Dashan had no choice but to obediently take out the silver money and things given to the Du family at the time of the marriage ceremony, and the useful things were converted into silver according to the current market price. Du Qiyue counted the good things, and immediately signed the deed with Qian Yin after confirming that it was correct, and then happily returned to Liushuwan Village with a bunch of things.
