Therefore, she continued to refuse Lady Ying's proposal.
"It's impossible to buy a yard with four entrances. I bought the yard for the convenience of our family, Yaoniang and Wang Xuan. As for the shop, I can agree to add three or four more, but this shop can only be used for my daughter. In hand."
"After all, she is the mistress of that family, and there are a lot of things to do in running a shop. I'm afraid you don't know how to run it, but Yaoniang has learned it from me, so I'm afraid she can run it better than you."
"As for the five hundred taels of gold, not to mention that I don't have that much money in my hand. Even if I have it, I am only willing to pay one hundred taels. After all, my husband didn't manage a penny when he joined the Ministry of War. But he has still entered the Ministry of War, so if your son is really capable, he actually doesn’t need to be managed at all, so these one hundred taels will be regarded as their spare money and will be brought over as Yaoniang’s dowry."
Zhou was clinging to the initiative. Lady Ying's face became angry when she heard Zhou's arrangement.
"Don't make any mistake. It's you who are asking for our family, not us who are asking for yours. I don't have to agree to your arrangement!"
"We have worked hard to raise our son, and there is hard work without credit. It would be really cruel for you to let us live separately from our son."
"And whose daughter-in-law doesn't live with her parents-in-law and doesn't serve her parents-in-law? If everything is like yours, then why should we marry a daughter-in-law?"
Hearing Mrs. Ying's shameless words, Mrs. Zhou immediately said rudely, "You have never seen a daughter-in-law who doesn't serve her parents-in-law. It's a coincidence, isn't it? I've never seen a daughter-in-law who doesn't pay a cent as a betrothal gift, but still wants to get married." The woman’s mother-in-law’s family wants to take away a lot of money from her husband’s family.”
"As for you, if you insist on saying that our family is asking for your family, your family can also choose to just slap your butt and leave. See if I can keep you."
Upon hearing what the other party said, Mrs. Ying immediately said, "Let's go! Who has to marry your daughter?"
The two of them were just going back and forth, tit-for-tat for a long time. Suddenly the room was full of swords and swords, and the smell of gunpowder was getting stronger and stronger.
Seeing that this matter is getting worse and worse as the discussion continues, both sides are getting more and more outrageous. If this continues, let alone discussing marriage, both of them will soon become each other's enemies.
The eldest sister-in-law of the Zhou family quickly came out with the second sister-in-law of the Zhou family to act as peacemakers. "Don't be so angry. This matter is not non-negotiable, is it?"
The eldest sister-in-law of the Zhou family only gave Lady Ying some words of advice: "Mrs. Ying, people are marrying their daughters, not their sons-in-law. Have you ever seen anyone marrying a daughter with such a generous betrothal gift? That's the kind of marriage you want your son to marry. A girl in a small village must also pay for a cow. They won't let you pay, but they still give out so much. If you are not satisfied, then you really can't think about it."
However, Mrs. Ying, no matter how the sister-in-law of the Zhou family tried to persuade her, she just said angrily, "Their parents are about to go to jail. Of course they are happy to pay. Anyway, they can't spend it in a place like Guanyuan Town. She If we leave it to our family, we can still improve our lives. Their family is too stingy to be picky and picky like this. She doesn't want to live with me, and I don't want her daughter to live with my son."
"And who has ever seen a daughter-in-law not serving her parents-in-law? You are also serving your parents-in-law in their house, and so am I, so I won't agree to anything at all." Lady Ying could only insist on this point at the moment. Let go.
Zhou, who had deliberately acted to take advantage of Lady Ying, knew that it was impossible for her to take control of Lady Zhou this time.
So she immediately said, "If you really want to care about this, let's stop talking about it. You can spend money to marry your daughter-in-law to serve you, and our daughter will find another job."
Lady Ying also refused to change and said, "Okay! Just leave!"
The marriage collapsed completely due to the unwillingness of both parties to give in.
On the other side, Zhou Yaoniang and Wang Xuan were walking slowly along the river embankment. The autumn sun was shining brightly, and the blue sky and white clouds reflected the clear water, which was quite a beautiful scenery.
Zhou Yaoniang couldn't help but be fascinated by the scenery of this small town.
On the other side, Wang Xuan was also fascinated by the beauty beside him.
It's a pity that whenever he wants to get close to the other party, the nanny on the side will protect Zhou Yaoniang.
It is impossible for Wang Xuan to get too close to Zhou Yaoniang.
Zhou Yaoniang looked at the scenery for a while, and then immediately said to Wang Xuan, "Brother Xuan, the scenery here is really beautiful."
Wang Xuan looked at Zhou Yaoniang intently and said, "Yes!"
Zhou Yaoniang then said, "Brother Xuan, with such a beautiful scenery, how about we write a poem together?"
After hearing Zhou Yaoniang's words, Wang Xuan only answered absentmindedly.
Zhou Yaoniang immediately said, "Brother Xuan, how about writing a poem first?"
Only then did Wang Xuan realize what the other party asked him to do.
Wang Xuan immediately started scratching his head.
"Well, this... why don't you write the poem first? Brother, I still need to think about it carefully."
Zhou Yaoniang didn't have any suspicion. She just smiled and said, "Brother, I haven't read any books, so I'll borrow some poems from my predecessors and recite them."
Wang Xuan nodded immediately after hearing this.
Zhou Yaoniang then cleared her throat and sang a song "Recalling Jiangnan".
"Jiangnan is wonderful, and the scenery is familiar to me. When the sun rises, the flowers on the river are as red as the fire, and when spring comes, the river is as green as blue. Can you not remember Jiangnan?"
After listening to Zhou Yaoniang's poem, Wang Xuan immediately clapped and said, "Okay."
Zhou Yaoniang smiled and said shyly, "I took the poems of the predecessors and made Brother Xuan laugh. I believe that Brother Xuan will definitely create good poems."
Under Zhou Yaoniang's flattery, Wang Xuan was completely put there.
He was embarrassed for a moment, and then said dryly, "The river is like blue waves, and the water and grass in the pool are deep. The beauty was by my side, and I feel very at ease."
Hearing this limerick that didn't rhyme and wasn't well written, Zhou Yaoniang couldn't help but look at Wang Xuan in disbelief.
Not to mention Zhou Yaoniang, the grandma seemed a little surprised.
But Zhou Yaoniang was kind after all. She didn't say anything to expose the fact that the poem written by Wang Xuan was actually nonsense. She just gently chose to change the subject.
"Brother Xuan, why don't we go back? I think mother and the others have almost finished talking."
Wang Xuan originally wanted to say that there was no rush and he could just walk away.
However, before he finished speaking, a window above the restaurant was pushed open, and then the face of the Zhou family maid appeared at the window and said, "Miss, come up here, we should go home."
Hearing this, Zhou Yaoniang felt as if she had finally been relieved, so she just said hello immediately.
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yaoniang also signaled Wang Xuan to go back.
By the time the young couple came back, Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Ying seemed to have finished their quarrel. Among the two, Mrs. Ying had a bad face, but Mrs. Zhou looked normal.
She even asked her daughter gently, "Yao Niang, what do you think of this town?"
Yaoniang smiled and said, "Mom, the scenery in this town is pretty good."
Mrs. Zhou also smiled when she heard this, and then she said, "If you like it, how about Mom buy you a house and arrange it here in the future?"
Zhou Yaoniang immediately said, "Mom, I don't want it."
Zhou just smiled and said, "Why not."
Zhou Yaoniang then said shyly in a low voice, "My daughter wants to stay with her mother."
Ms. Zhou smiled, then she looked at the eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law of the Zhou family and said, "I have been disturbed a lot during this period. I will not stay here today. My daughter and I will leave first."
When they heard Zhou's farewell, the eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law of the Zhou family seemed to hesitate to speak, but Zhou had already left directly.
After getting into the car, Mrs. Zhou suddenly asked Zhou Yaoniang again.
"Yao Niang, what do you think of Wang Xuan?"
After hearing her mother's question, Zhou Yaoniang refused to speak.
Mrs. Zhou then couldn't help but turn her head and look at the old lady who was following her.
When the mother-in-law looked over at Mrs. Zhou, she was much more direct than Zhou Yaoniang.
"Madam, I guess it is impossible for our eldest lady to like such a person. That person is really incompetent."
Mrs. Zhou was a little surprised when she heard what her mother-in-law said.
"Why do you say that?"
After hearing this, the woman immediately told Mrs. Zhou what she had seen and heard.
"I don't think that man is a serious person. He is smooth-tongued and lecherous. He has been rubbing up against the lady a lot along the way."
"And if that's all, he is just a straw bag. The lady wrote poems with him. Listen to what poems he wrote. He said that the river is like blue waves, the water and grass in the pool are deep, and the beautiful woman was by my side. My heart is very sad. safely."
I heard the woman read out the other party's limericks.
In an instant, the maids around him couldn't help but burst into laughter at the same time.
"What is this! What kind of talent can you say? A three-year-old can make up nonsense like this. He can't be said to be very educated, he can only be said to know a few words." The elder next to Zhou The maid thought about how angry Madam had been just now, and couldn't help but follow suit and taunted her.
The others just laughed immediately.
When Mrs. Zhou heard what the old lady said, she felt relieved.
It seemed that his daughter had not fallen in love with Wang Xuan.
And as long as her daughter didn't fall in love with him, Ms. Zhou wouldn't feel any guilt.
"So Wang Xuan is actually a loser?"
The mother-in-law beside Zhou immediately nodded and said, "Yes, that is definitely a idiot."
"Yao Niang, you shouldn't be able to accept that person, right?"
When Zhou Yaoniang heard this, she only said, "I will listen to my mother's arrangements."
Hearing Zhou Yaoniang's words, Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but sigh and said, "Yaoniang, I'm afraid your marriage to Wang Xuan will not work out."
Zhou Yaoniang just nodded softly when she heard this.
Seeing Zhou Yaoniang's plain expression, Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but said, "Yoniang, aren't you curious why your marriage can't happen?"
Zhou Yaoniang only raised her head and glanced at her mother after hearing this.
"Why not?"
Zhou immediately said, "Because their family is so bullying, I originally promised to arrange a small courtyard for them in Wansong Academy, where you and Wang Xuan will live."
