Chapter 304 Report to the police? My old woman isn't afraid!
Wei Heping has such a mother.
If Zhao Tian marries him, won't she be tormented to death?
Having an old woman like that, my life is probably over.
Even if Wei Heping were exceptionally good, his own daughter would never marry him.
"Since you're being unreasonable and making a fuss, I'll go back today. If you want to break off the engagement, call the matchmaker and witnesses tomorrow and give me sixty yuan, or ten more yuan, as compensation for breaking off the engagement for my family, Heping."
The man with the hoarse voice continued speaking.
Saying that, he was about to leave.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Tian's younger brother, Zhao Fu, quickly blocked the entrance to the main room.
Zhao Fu thought that no matter what, he definitely couldn't let that old hag get away now.
Otherwise, the fifty yuan dowry I just gave would really be hard to explain.
If that old hag leaves, won't my family really have to pay them sixty yuan tomorrow?
That's sixty yuan!
My whole family might not be able to save this much money in a year.
Seeing this, Zhao Tian quickly stood at the door as well.
Together with his younger brother, they stopped Aunt Wei.
"Hey? What are you doing? Are you trying to detain me and not let me leave?" Wei Heping's mother was about to start making a scene when she saw this.
"You're being really unreasonable. I've already given you the money; the five ten-yuan bills are right here in your left pocket."
"I saw you put it in with my own eyes, are you trying to extort money from our family?"
"You accepted fifty yuan as a bride price, can't the marriage just end here? Do you really have to keep making a scene like this?" Zhao Tian's mother was really furious with the old woman in front of her.
Tonight, Wei Heping's mother came over and said she wanted to discuss marriage arrangements.
At that time, Zhao Tian had already told her parents about her upcoming marriage to Gu Zhendong.
Although her parents were still not satisfied, after all, the Gu family's social standing was not good, and Zhao Tian would probably be looked down upon if she married into the family.
However, Zhao Tian explained that Su Niannian, a talented and beautiful educated youth sent to the countryside, had married Gu Nan.
Why can't her parents understand things that she can?
Zhao Tian's parents were still hesitant, but Zhao Tian's younger brother, Zhao Fu, felt that as long as his sister was willing, it wouldn't be a bad idea for her to marry into the family.
“Second Sister has been waiting for Boss Gu for so long. Now that Boss Gu is going to marry her, aren’t you going to force Second Sister to her death if you don’t agree?” Zhao Fu said.
Zhao Tian's parents thought that made sense.
Since their daughter was determined to be with the eldest son of the Gu family, their objections were useless.
Now that things have come to this, I might as well get married.
As a result, before the matter was even finished being discussed, people from the family arrived.
It was Wei Heping's mother who came.
Now that the other party had come, Zhao Tian's parents decided to return the betrothal money.
The marriage between the Zhao and Wei families was thus called off.
As a result, after the money was given to Wei Heping's mother, she turned her back on him again.
She said she had never received the returned betrothal gifts.
They even said they would offer compensation.
This... this really is a case of running into a dog.
“Sister Zhao, I do have fifty yuan in my pocket, but it wasn’t given to me by you; I brought it from home.”
"I was thinking that since Zhao Tian is going to marry my family's Heping, I plan to bring some money over to buy her some things."
"Now that your family wants to call off the engagement, are you going to try and steal the fifty yuan from my pocket?" Wei Heping's mother lied without batting an eye.
It's that hoarse, raspy accent that's hard to listen to.
Zhao Tian's mother was furious.
Zhao Tian's father, who was standing nearby, could no longer sit still.
"You're being unreasonable. We'll just call the police!" Zhao Tian's father didn't want to make things too big of a fuss.
But this old hag is really going too far.
Even Zhao Tian's father, who had been honest his whole life, had reached the limit of his patience.
"Okay, let's report it to the police and let everyone in Kaoshan Village know what kind of people the Zhao family are."
"They broke off the engagement just like that. They don't even want to return the betrothal gifts or compensate my family, Heping."
"The money I have on me is what I brought myself. What evidence do you have that your family returned it to me?"
The old woman with the hoarse voice continued, "She really isn't afraid at all."
Zhao Tian's mother was provoked again and was on the verge of fainting from anger.
"Let's go, Mother." Su Niannian took Gu's mother's arm and smiled as she spoke to her.
When Gu's mother saw that Su Niannian had let her in, she grabbed Su Niannian and rushed inside.
Gu Nan walked behind, worried that his mother might hurt his little girl.
You should know that his little girl is pregnant now.
Gu Nan followed closely behind, afraid that something might happen to his little girl.
Gu's mother and her entourage appeared in Zhao Tian's courtyard.
When the people inside saw that someone else had come outside, they were afraid it was someone from the Wei family, and they all became alert.
Fortunately, Zhao Tian had good eyesight and recognized who it was.
"It's Aunt Gu and the others." When Zhao Tian saw that it was Aunt Gu and Su Niannian, she felt as if she had found her pillar of support.
A hint of surprise finally appeared on his worried face.
"Good boy, we're not afraid."
"Auntie's here." Aunt Gu strode forward and stood in front of Zhao Tian.
Fortunately, Su Niannian pulled her hand back quickly.
Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to keep up with my mother's pace.
Mother's health has really recovered very well now; she can walk with incredible agility.
"Oh, oh, oh, the real lady has arrived?" The old hag with the hoarse voice showed no fear whatsoever.
If you can't handle it, just lie down on the ground and you'll extort money from them.
I'm not afraid at all.
"How can you bully people like this? Do you think there's no law?" Gu's mother stepped forward and shielded Zhao Tian behind her.
Zhao Tian is about to marry Gu Zhendong, who is his own son.
I can't let my child be bullied.
When Zhao Tian's parents saw Gu Zhendong protecting Zhao Tian so much, they exchanged a glance.
This instantly boosted Gu Zhendong's reputation.
Gu Zhendong's mother is far superior to Wei Heping's mother.
At least they were protecting Zhao Tian.
Zhao Tian had previously said that Gu Zhendong's leg had a chance of recovery. Although Zhao Tian's parents were somewhat skeptical, even if he really had difficulty walking, they were not entirely unable to accept it as long as the Gu family could take good care of Zhao Tian.
Anyway, Zhao Tian herself was happy to do so.
Thinking about it this way, it really doesn't seem like a bad idea to let Zhao Tian marry into that family.
At least the Gu family's character is far superior to that old hag's.
"The law? Then go ahead and call the police! This old woman is waiting here."
"You..." Gu's mother saw Wei Heping's mother looking like this.
I felt utterly disgusted.
“Mother…” Su Niannian walked to Gu’s mother’s side and stopped her from going over to tear this old hag apart.
"This must be Aunt Wei, right?" Su Niannian smiled and stood next to Gu's mother.
