Chapter 32: Grudges
The mother-in-law of the village chief's family stood up at this time, glanced at the iron woman, and said to the black girl: "This oral marriage contract is innumerable, if you want to withdraw from the marriage openly, just give the Zhao family fifty catties of sweet potatoes, and what compensation do you say? Since ancient times, men and women have a marriage contract, as long as there is no worship and one party goes first, this marriage contract is already uncountable." ”
When the people in the village saw that the mother-in-law of the village chief's family was on the side of the black girl, they all echoed it, and what they said was also the truth.
The iron woman was angry, and she didn't dare to make trouble with the village chief's mother-in-law directly, so she could only stare at the black girl mother and daughter fiercely.
The black girl smiled gratefully at the village chief's mother-in-law, and said: "But after all, I broke the contract first, and we must pay attention to honesty in life. How can I disgrace our Jisang Village? It is appropriate to compensate the Zhao family. ”
Listening to the words of the black girl, all the people who watched the lively Sanji Village straightened their backs and nodded with satisfaction, and even the village chief agreed with the black girl's words and nodded.
The black girl had enough of the fart, so she took out a rag bag from her arms, opened it carefully, and it was six taels of broken silver, and then handed it to the village chief.
"Village Chief, I ask you to testify today, this is the dowry and compensation I returned to the Zhao family, and the marriage with the Zhao family in the future will be considered yellow. ”
The village chief took the loose silver, counted it twice, glanced at it, and the iron woman whose eyes were already on the silver said in a deep voice: "Okay, I will be here today to testify, and the big guys are also here, all of them will be a witness, and in the future, the Tie family and the Zhao family will marry irrelevantly." ”
Seeing that everyone nodded and understood their words, the village chief handed the silver in his hand to the impatient Iron Woman.
"I've counted, it's exactly six taels of silver. In the future, you won't talk about the marriage of black girls anymore. ”
Tie Pozi's good mood when she took the silver was immediately dissipated by the village chief's warning words, and she thought that she was as unhappy as eating a fly.
She didn't want to cheapen the mother and daughter like this, but at this moment, she couldn't tolerate her disagreement, and besides, she already had six taels of silver in her hand, how could she return the silver she had received.
Tie Pozi nodded reluctantly, carrying six taels of silver, glared at the black girl, and turned to leave.
When I got home, I counted it several times, looked at each piece of silver a few times, and suddenly reacted.
How did the black girl still have the money? Where did it come from? Could it be that the dead girl really had the ability to make so much money?
Tie Pozi suddenly felt that the six taels of silver in her hand were a little hot.
I don't know if it's too late to regret it now?
Tie Pozi put away six taels of silver, got up and went straight to the black girl's house.
And after watching the lively people here, the black girl invited the village chief's mother-in-law into the house, served sugar water for a night, and packed a few pieces of crystal cake.
"Grandma Li, thank you for helping me speak today. ”
The village chief's mother-in-law is surnamed Li, and the black girl should indeed be called grandma according to her generation.
Mrs. Li looked at the delicate crystal cake on the plate, picked up the soup and took a sip, it was so sweet.
"You girl, you are sensible. Originally, your aunt didn't do things properly, and I should uphold justice. ”
As she spoke, her eyes swept over the crystal cake on the table, and the black girl immediately brought the plate over.
"Taste it, I bought it in Xiangcheng yesterday. ”
In the end, Mrs. Li couldn't resist the sweet and greasy taste of the crystal cake, and took a piece and ate it, which was delicious.
As soon as the black girl saw Mrs. Li's eyes, she knew that she liked it. I turned around and took out a pack of unopened ones.
"I wanted to send you a pack, but now that you're here, I don't have to make a trip. ”
The black girl said and put a whole bag of crystal cakes in Mrs. Li's hand.
The smile on Mrs. Li's face was a little more real, and she pretended to shirk it, and finally reluctantly accepted it.
"You girl, you're really polite, why are you buying me these, what a waste of silver?"
"You and the village chief have helped us so much, thank you as it should be. A month ago, I found a ginseng in the mountains, and sold it to the doctor of the Li family pharmacy in Xiangcheng two days ago, and I made eight taels of silver at once. It's my good luck too, otherwise ......"
The black girl pretended to be uncomfortable and shook her head, thinking of going to Zhao's house to be widowed, she looked unbearable.
The people in Sanji Village are poor, and her family is even poorer, and she took out six taels of silver at once, which is not a small amount. Now the big guy hasn't reacted yet, and when he does, he will definitely be curious, where did her family's money come from?
It was in order to spread the news through the mouth of the village chief's mother-in-law, so she invited people into the house.
Looking at Mrs. Li's eyes lit up and she looked clear, the black girl knew that it wouldn't be long before everyone in the village would know where their money came from. As for whether someone will learn from her to go into the mountains to find ginseng, she doesn't care.
Mu Pozi was also on the side, but she was a little absent-minded at this time, and she was still thinking about the strange man lying on the earthen kang in the back room!
So she didn't pay attention to what the black girl said.
"Then you're really lucky, girl. I did hear that some people had seen ginseng in the mountains in the early years, but in these years, the situation was not good, and there were chaos, and the mountains had already been trampled down. You can still find ginseng, it's a blessing!"
Mrs. Li sighed with emotion, drank all the soup in one gulp, and just wanted to leave with something, but the black girl stood up first.
"It seems that my aunt is here, I'll go out and have a look. ”
The black girl didn't wait for Mrs. Li to speak, stood up and walked out of the house, and closed the door directly. Mrs. Li is not going to leave now, after all, she is still carrying things in her hands, if she is seen by Tie Pozi when she goes out of the door, she may hear something nasty!
"Why is my aunt here?"
The black girl stood at the door, obviously not wanting to let the iron woman in.
"Dead girl, I'm your aunt, why can't I come?"
The iron woman wanted to cross the black girl into the house, but was blocked by the black girl sideways.
"Dead girl, you say, where did you get those six taels of silver? If you don't tell the truth, see if I don't tear your mouth apart. ”
"Sell mountain goods for silver. I told you, it's nothing, you better go back!"
"You dead girl, what is your attitude towards your aunt? Don't think that you dare to fight against me if you have the village chief, the old immortal to support you, don't forget that I am your aunt. ”
The black girl happened to be distressed, how could she let Mrs. Li, who was sitting in the house, be disgusted with the Zhao family, and her aunt immediately helped her solve this problem.
The black girl has a flat face, and she is secretly happy in her heart, and she herself feels that she is getting worse and worse.
"Auntie, how can you say that? The village elder is the backbone of our village, and he does things justly, and the village elder has already witnessed the divorce of our two families, and you can't regret it now. ”
"What is he? This is my Zhao family's business, and I have the final say. You still have to be widowed for my tiger......"
