C4 A War of Words!

"Your third brother is the only scholar in the family. Does our family not expect him to count on you? Besides, you guys don't waste your brains on farming, and your family doesn't lack you guys to eat and wear. So what if you don't eat meat? " Seeing Gu Xiwei's sharp tongue, Madame Wang simply started to shout loudly. Typically speaking, it didn't make sense to splash it.

"Besides, it doesn't make sense if you spill it. Some people only eat and not work and still want to eat delicacies? It's simply a dream!" Madame Wang was already dissatisfied with the two daughters in the second room and even used the previous incident to scold Jiang Qinzhi.

Gu Xiwei only felt that her words had meaning. She was about to go forward and argue but did not want to be lightly pulled by Jiang Haofeng.

She looked over and saw Jiang Haofeng quickly kneel down to the two elders. She said in a deep voice, "Little Mother is indeed old and weak. She can't do heavy work. If my mother thinks we will be a burden, why don't you give me and my mother away? Father probably won't have any objections either..." His words were like a clap of thunder that caused everyone to be shocked.

"Xiao Wu!" The first one to react was Xiao Wu. "Are you crazy?"

"I know very well what I am doing. Instead of my mother being unable to do heavy work and getting angry at my mother, why don't we split up? In the future, I will still do my son's duty. I hope parents will consider this carefully." Jiang Haofeng looked at the anxious Jiang Haofan and turned his head to continue.

The rest of the people had yet to fully recover from their shock when they heard Madame Wang's angry and shrill voice, "If I had known that I would have had a baby in October, I would have had a baby. You ungrateful ingrate, you should have thrown you into the mountains to feed the wolves and married a wife. I was so bewitched! "Abandoning your parents and wanting to leave, is it because you want the Jiang family to become the laughingstock of the village?"

For a moment, the house fell into a strange silence. Madame Wang was the only one left who was howling at the top of her lungs.

"Since Fifth Brother has already broken up with his family, it would be better to let them go." Suddenly, Jiang Haoshang opened his mouth and broke the silence. He looked relaxed, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Jiang Mu thought for a moment when he heard this. He was just about to open his mouth when Madame Wang, who had stopped howling, suddenly interrupted him. "It's fine even if you want to move out! Your father and I can't raise you for nothing. Every year, five taels of silver. If you want to move out, you must first hand over ten years of nurturing money!"

"Mother!" Jiang Haofan could not help but take in a cold breath and object. "Xiao Wu has given you all the money he earned. Where do you want him to find fifty taels of silver for you?"

"He doesn't have money," Jiang Haofan said. His wife is rich. Does the Gu family not pay a child for marrying their daughter?"

Gu Xiwei raised her eyebrows and sneered in her heart. She knew that someone had already set their sights on her dowry.

Even if they did not move out now, Presumably, Madame Wang would do everything she could to scrape off her meager dowry in the future.

Jiang Haofeng's face darkened. He raised his voice and said coldly, "This is impossible! How can I use my wife's money?"

"Since you're not willing to pay, then it's better not to move out!" Madame Wang rolled her eyes and said with an unnegotiable tone. Even Jiang Mu was silent.

Madame Lin saw it and felt aggrieved for Jiang Haofeng. Their second wife, Jiang Haofan, knew how to work as a carpenter and could occasionally earn a few strings of copper coins. In addition to the twenty acres of land in the house, the income from the whole work was about two taels of silver.

It was just that Jiang Mu's illness and Jiang Haoshang's school fees were like a bottomless hole that could not be filled no matter what.

Madame Wang, on the other hand, did not have the face to ask for ten years' worth of silver. If it was spread to outsiders, wouldn't it become a joke for the entire village after dinner?

When everyone was silent, Gu Xiwei shrugged and said, "It is not a problem to pay. I must fulfill one condition."

"What do you mean?" Gu Xiwei's words came out. Madame Wang's eyes lit up and she asked without thinking.

Gu Xiwei coldly stared at Madame Wang and said word by word, "I happen to have fifty taels of dowry in my hands. I can give it to you but I need to invite Li Zheng and the village's famous elders to be witnesses. You all also need to make a statement. If you are not willing then don't move out. Anyway, I will not take out a single child!"

The atmosphere in the house became strange once again. Just when Madame Wang threw down the bowl and wanted to throw a tantrum, the second eldest son, Jiang Mingyuan, who was originally quietly eating, suddenly stood up and ran out. He only left one sentence: "I'll treat Grandpa Lizheng!"

How could Gu Xiwei, who was as meticulous as a hair, not notice Madame Lin making eye contact with Jiang Mingyuan when no one was paying attention.

This kind intention was appreciated by her heart.

The Jiang family was located on the west side of the village and the Lizheng family was located in the middle of the village. It took less than the time for an incense stick to burn to go back and forth.

While waiting for the arrival of the Lizheng family, Jiang Mu and Madame Wang simply picked up their chopsticks and treated Jiang Haofeng, who was kneeling on the ground, as if he did not exist.

Gu Xiwei casually stood beside Jiang Haofan and did not care about the people who were eating quietly.

She secretly felt sorry for Jiang Haofeng, who was stubbornly kneeling on the ground. She was afraid that his knee would be damaged if he stayed for too long.

Without any delay, she hurried over.

There were only two or three outsiders in Tidal Village with different surnames. The rest of the villagers were all from the same tribe. They were kind and honest, and Li Zheng was known for being fair and selfless. It was also because of this that people with different surnames like the Jiang family could successfully borrow them.

The name of the village was Luo Jiuhong. He was at the age of sixty-eight this year. Because he was honest and selfless, he never deliberately sided with anyone. He was loved and respected by the villagers.

After listening to the panting Jiang Mingyuan briefly explain his purpose of coming, Li Zheng decided to make a trip to the Jiang family. Sun Family, who was worried, also came to check on the situation.

Not long after, many people who wanted to join in the fun after hearing the news of the Jiang family's branch family were following behind them. In an instant, a large group of people came towards the Jiang family.

In just a short moment, the originally spacious inner courtyard of the Jiang family was filled with people who came to watch the show.

Although she was surprised in her heart, she was not afraid. Even if they were the first to open the door to the branch family, It's not as good as Madame Wang asking for an exorbitant price. If it was 50 taels of silver, it would be such a shocking act!

"Mr. Jiang..." Li Zheng was the first to nod at Jiang Mu as a greeting. Although Jiang Mu had been dismissed from his post and returned home, However, he was able to become the top scholar and enter the Schoolmaster's residence with his own abilities. The things in his stomach were incomparable to ordinary people's. In addition, Li Zheng, who had always respected knowledge and knowledge, took good care of him. "The boy from the second room came to talk to me. I don't believe it. Are you really going to distribute the five kids?"

Hearing that, Jiang Mu rubbed his forehead and sighed deeply. "Lou Lizheng, you know my family's situation very well. Unfortunately, Xiao Wu's wife doesn't seem to be able to accept it. Since they want to move out, we can't force them to stay. I hope Li Zheng can be a witness."
