pastoral beggar woman

Chapter 8
The daughter-in-law of the Chen family didn't wait for Mrs. Qin to speak, and hurriedly said: "You said this, and you can't go back on your word if you want to withdraw from the marriage. Everyone has heard it. I didn't force you to withdraw, it was Qin Shuang's own willingness. back!"

The people around curled their lips secretly, if you hadn't come to the door to persecute them, would they have said that they would withdraw their marriage if they had nothing to do?

"I said I will not retreat!" Mrs. Qin hurried forward two steps, grabbed the village chief's arm and said urgently: "No divorce! Who dares to marry Qin Shuang after divorce! Absolutely not to retreat, village chief! "

The village head looked embarrassed, "Qin Shuang is right, the Chen family is not willing, and even if she gets married in the future, she will suffer. Don't you just have the heart to see her have an uncomfortable life in the future?"

"I don't care! Anyway, I can't withdraw my marriage!"

Qin Shuang glanced at the old lady Qin, and said calmly to the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, "The marriage can be withdrawn, but the Chen family must make compensation, otherwise, I won't let people withdraw the marriage for nothing."

The Chen family's daughter-in-law and Mrs. Qin paused at the same time, the former's eyes flashed, and he said vigilantly: "We need to give compensation!? What compensation!"

Qin Lishi also pricked up his ears.

Qin Shuang said: "After retiring, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to find a good husband's family again. This is a matter of a lifetime. I don't want to drag the Chen family down, so shouldn't the Chen family also make some compensation for me, to make up for me? Bad reputation?"

"What compensation do you want?" Chen's daughter-in-law asked with narrowed eyes.

Qin Shuang said with a smile: "Don't worry, Auntie, it's not much, just ten taels of silver is fine." Originally, she didn't want any favors from the Chen family, but they can't be cheap for nothing, right?Even if she is happy to see the results, it doesn't mean that the Chen family doesn't have to pay a price.

"Ten taels of silver!?" The Chen family's daughter-in-law glared, "How dare you ask us for ten taels of silver!" That's enough for them to spend for a year or two!

The neighbors in the neighborhood obviously didn't expect that Qin Shuang would dare to ask the Chen family for money, and even the village chief couldn't hide his surprise from looking at Qin Shuang.

Qin Shuang just smiled and asked back: "Or, Aunt Chen wants me to marry over and drag the Chen family down for the rest of my life?" Ten taels of silver, after the Chen family has no end, this deal should be a good deal, right?Anyone with a little brain should know how to choose.

As soon as Qin Lishi heard that there was money to take, he immediately let go of the village chief's hand, counted with his eyes, and began to count.

Looking at the current situation, she also knows that the marriage is probably not going to work out. If she doesn't quit today, the daughter-in-law of the Chen family will come and make trouble tomorrow, until she can get rid of the marriage. Getting compensation of ten taels of silver is not considered a loss...

"No! Why should I give you ten taels of silver! No!"

"Then this marriage will not go away." Qin Shuang shrugged.

"You!" The Chen family's daughter-in-law gritted her teeth and said, "Five taels of silver at most!"

"Ten taels, one penny cannot be less." Although the Chen family is small in number, the land they rent is all fertile land, and the annual grain output is quite a lot in the whole village. The harvest alone is probably enough for ten. It's two silver coins. It's not an exaggeration for her to ask for such a small amount of money.

"Qin Shuang! Don't go too far!"

Qin Shuang was noncommittal, if ten taels of silver was too much, then she really had nothing to say.

Seeing Qin Shuang's reticent attitude, the daughter-in-law of the Chen family was even more angry. At this moment, the old lady Qin said again: "Our Qin family is not like your Chen family who likes to force people to do things, you If you don't want to give money, you can just get married as usual, but no one is forcing you." Whether you want money or someone, no matter what the Chen family chooses, the Qin family will not be at a loss!
The village head thought for a moment, and persuaded: "Daughter-in-law of the Chen family, it is not too difficult to give out ten taels of silver based on your family's conditions. Qin Shuang has already given out the conditions, and you should also show some sincerity." , otherwise it would be a bit too bullying, and I can't make decisions for you."

"Village head!" The Chen family's daughter-in-law didn't expect that the village head she called over would actually stand by the Qin family's side. She wanted to withdraw from the marriage but didn't want to lose money, so she almost gritted her teeth in anger.

The Chen family is indeed not short of these ten taels of silver, but she also feels very unhappy that they have made the Qin family cheaper for no reason.

"Will you give me the money or not!" Mrs. Qin urged, "If you don't want to give it, hurry up! It was agreed before that this year we will choose a good date to get married. You should go back and discuss the date!"

The daughter-in-law of the Chen family and Chen Ming, who had been silent all this time, stared wide-eyed, with a look of reluctance on their faces. Qin Shuang looked coldly at the repulsion in Chen Ming's eyes, and laughed mockingly. ?
The whole Chen family had made up their minds not to want this marriage, so how could they choose a good date!

The daughter-in-law of the Chen family stared at Qin Lishi and Qin Shuang with dissatisfaction, hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted her teeth, "Okay! I admit it! Ten taels is ten taels! The marriage must be canceled immediately, and there can be no further delays." Procrastinate! Village chief, you are a witness!"

The village head looked at Qin Lishi and Qin Shuang, asking with eyes.

Qin Shuang said directly: "Yes." She was also eager to solve this trouble quickly, so as not to cause more troubles in Ye Changmeng in the future.It is impossible for her to be so poor all her life, and she will accumulate her own wealth little by little in a short time. What if the Chen family is eyeing her again?
At that time, it won't be that she is relying on the Chen family, but that the Chen family will not let go of her, a hen that can lay 'golden eggs'.

Although Qin Lishi was still unhappy, she didn't say much for the sake of ten taels of silver. She gave Qin Shuang a glare, and went back to get the marriage letter she had written with the Chen family.

The daughter-in-law of the Chen family came to withdraw the marriage, so she naturally carried the marriage certificate with her. The village chief took two marriage certificates, dictated the contents above, and asked the Qin and Chen families for their opinions again, to make sure that they did not intend to go back on their word. All the neighbors tore up the marriage certificate on the spot.

Looking at the torn marriage certificate, whether it was the Chen family's wife, Chen Ming, or Qin Shuang, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The Chen family's daughter-in-law solved the biggest worry of the Chen family, and finally her complexion eased a lot. Under Qin Li's urging, she took out ten taels of silver slowly.

Just as Qin Shuang reached out to take it, Qin Li immediately said, "I'll take care of the money!"

Qin Shuang raised her eyebrows and didn't say anything, but she didn't plan to keep the ten taels of silver for herself, but it was just to make things difficult for the Chen family. She had expected that the Qin Li family would not leave the silver to She, probably... intends to keep it as a dowry for Qin Lian'er in the future, ha ha.

The Chen family got a fairly satisfactory answer, so they turned around and left without lingering. The village chief and Qin Li's family and Qin Shuang nodded and left as well. There was nothing to watch, and the neighbors dispersed after discussing in low voices. .
