I have been reborn, why do I still need to work?

Chapter 57 Yangmou ([-])

Passerby: "Isn't the youngest daughter of the Kong family already engaged to the Confucian scholar Tang Ren? The two of them went out together, bought a lot of things, and didn't avoid others at all!"

The boy of the Zou family: "This is a marriage between the two old masters. I am afraid that Master Kong has forgotten his father's will. Our Zou family, as a thousand households in this area, will not blame the Kong family."

Passers-by praised the Zou family for being so generous, and began to blame the Kong family for their treachery.

Seeing the Zou family father and son and the numerous gifts coming to his door, Mr. Kong frowned: "Zou Qianhu, what do you mean?"

Master Zou: "Brother Kong, you shouldn't forget that our two families used to have a marriage contract, right?"

Mr. Kong was stunned: "That was once upon a time. Back then, it was Zou Qianhu who tore up the marriage certificate in front of everyone."

Mr. Zou: "What I tore up was a fake marriage certificate. You see, I have always kept the real marriage certificate well hidden."

Master Zou took out a piece of red paper from his sleeve and handed it to Master Kong.

Master Kong's marriage certificate had been burned in front of Tang Ren a few days ago. Now he can't produce the real copy to confront him, but the handwriting is indeed somewhat similar to the old one.

He shook his head and said: "Back then, I also confirmed with Zou Qianhu afterwards. Don't you also think that the marriage should be abandoned? It depends on the children's own thoughts about the follow-up?"

Master Zou: "I didn't do it for the Kong family. I made this decision at the time to protect the reputation of your family, brother. What's more, my son Chongyu has always missed Qingqiu for so many years."

When Zou Chongyu heard this, he knelt down and kowtowed to Master Zou, saying: "I am sincere to Qingqiu and have been in love for a long time. I beg Master Kong to make her come true."

Master Kong stepped forward to support Zou Chongyu, and said: "I thank Mr. Zou for his love for my daughter, but marriage can only last if two people are in love. Now my daughter has made a marriage contract with Confucian Tang Ren, and the two fall in love with each other soon. We are about to get married. Mr. Zou has a distinguished family and outstanding talents, so there will definitely be many women who are attracted to you, so why not look forward?"

Zou Chongyu lay on the ground and refused to get up.

Mr. Zou: "Everything has a first come, a first served. My family made the marriage arrangement with your family first. My son is also obsessed with Qingqiu. He would not marry her. Why can't Brother Kong be as beautiful as a man?"

Master Kong sighed and said with a smile: "Zou Qianhu, although I don't have your magical powers, I still know what your intentions are. So there is no need to continue acting like this, right?"

Master Zou also laughed: "Brother Kong's words hurt people very much. I came to visit with my son and a generous gift. I sincerely came to ask Qingqiu to marry me. Brother Kong, don't think too much."

Mr. Kong: "Sincerely seek marriage? Why didn't you ask for marriage a few years ago? Why did you come to perform this so-called 'sincerely seek marriage' today when my daughter's wedding is approaching? Zou Qianhu, tell me, what do you want?" ? I, Zou Weide, will do my best to satisfy you, I just ask you to be noble and let my daughter go."

Master Zou: "Brother Kong, my son and I don't ask for anything, we just want Qingqiu."

Mr. Kong: "Is it possible that Zou Qianhu wants to gain the reputation of bullying others and forcibly marrying people's daughters?"

Mr. Zou: "Brother Kong, where do you start talking about this? I have a marriage certificate in hand."

Master Kong: "You have torn up the real marriage contract a long time ago. It is a lie."

Mr. Zou: "What evidence do you have? Can you confront me with the real book?"

Master Kong froze in place, he knew that Zou Qianhu must have read from his mind in advance the matter that he had destroyed the original, and now he is using this matter to stir up trouble.

Fishing in troubled waters doesn't necessarily mean who will win or who will lose.

Master Kong was about to continue to argue with the other party, but he heard a loud answer from outside the door: "Of course!"

Kong Qingqiu walked in.

She held a piece of red paper in her hand, on which were written the birthdays of her and Zou Chongyu, as well as the words that the grandfathers of the two parties concluded an marriage relationship with each other. Below were the signatures and red handprints of the two old masters.

Kong Qingqiu said loudly: "This is the real marriage certificate. You can compare it with the one in your hand. Let's see what is right and what is wrong!"

But this is actually not the real version.

Tang Ren heard the confrontation between several people in the hall, and knew that the old and the young of the Zou family were here to make trouble.

Confucianism's seventh grade magical power is a photographic memory. After Tang Ren read the original book, he copied it and even used ink pads to make the red handprints exactly right.

After he finished it, he asked his maid to bring it to Qingqiu, telling her that it was true and that Father Kong gave it to him.

Kong Qingqiu couldn't see Tang Ren, and he didn't know why, so he went to the front hall with the "authentic book".

But the moment she finished talking about the comparison, she knew that she had fallen into a trap.

She read Zou Qianhu's thoughts.

If the Kong family can’t produce the authentic copy, then Zou Qianhu can insist that his family’s is true, and then continue to entangle with the Kong family, make a big noise, and finally force the Kong family to submit;

If the Kong family presents the authentic copy, it will prove that the two families have not broken up the marriage contract, and it can be said that the previous baby marriage is still valid;
This kind of thing agreed in private cannot be separated clearly.

What's more, in the eyes of outsiders, the status of the Zou family is higher than that of the Kong family. How can the Zou family not marry a daughter-in-law they want?What reason is there to force the Kong family to marry their daughter?

Kong Qingqiu read the layers of traps in Zou Qianhu's heart, and Zou Qianhu read the horror in Kong Qingqiu's heart.

Zou Qianhu walked towards Kong Qingqiu with a smile and said, "Future daughter-in-law, it's great that you are here and you personally brought the marriage certificate. When I first met you when you grew up, you were really tall and graceful, just like my son Chong. It’s a perfect match for me.”

Kong Qingqiu gritted his teeth and said, "Zou Qianhu, don't you just want to find a capable wife for your son and pave the way for him? I'm not the only woman with supernatural powers in the world. Why do you have to make things difficult for each other?"

Zou Qianhu: "It's not that I want to embarrass you, it's that you and my son have an engagement. Now that you are both old, you should naturally..."

Kong Qingqiu interrupted him: "You are just making things difficult for us. I can clearly hear your plan. You think I have supernatural powers that are more powerful than his mind. If I can harvest grain and hide soldiers, you must support me in the future." Husband is a thousand households, you just want to cut off other people's backs and pave the way for your son!"

She read out what Zou Qianhu was thinking word for word.

Zou Qianhu shook his head: "Miss Qingqiu, don't just rely on your ability to read minds and slander me at will, accusing me of such unwarranted crimes. I made it very clear that I just kept my promise. Is it true that the Kong family, who are merchants and market makers, are going to break their promises?"

What does it mean to be shameless and invincible?

This makes people shameless and invincible!
Kong Qingqiu suddenly discovered that he had a good mind and was defeated by such an interlocking conspiracy.

As long as the other party bites and refuses to let go, who can prove who is telling the truth between her and Zou Qianhu?Who told lies?

Jin Miaomiao began to regret, regretting that she should not have been so public and attracted so many people's attention and comments, which made the old fox start to make plans.

She regretted that she shouldn't have entered the house, and should have let her father take control of the situation and let her father and the old fox compete one-on-one for face and endurance.
