They've all separated, so what does it matter to me if they get poorer and poorer?

Chapter 313 Unmarriageable

After listening to Granny Qin Qing's detailed explanation, Xu Zhichun understood that the Lian family member whose nickname was "Egg" must have some kind of manic disorder.

Anyone with a normal heart would run away as soon as they see someone like that.

It's important to save your life!

Marry him? Do you have a death wish?
Although Chunfen was strong, she lacked a backbone and was actually quite timid, never daring to hit anyone indiscriminately. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been constantly ridiculed and mocked in the village, with even seven- or eight-year-old children clapping and laughing at her from behind.

If she marries him, her fate will probably be similar to that of the child bride.

Xu Zhichun couldn't sit still any longer, so she quickly went to find Chunfen's mother and told her everything.

As Chunfen's mother listened, her face grew paler and paler, and she became increasingly restless and unwell.

"How could this be? How could this be? How could this be?"

Xu Zhichun said softly, "Auntie, Chunfen and I are like sisters. I genuinely hope she's doing well. If it weren't for that egg acting strangely, and his family's lack of sincerity in hiding the truth, I wouldn't have told you. I thought about it for a long time before telling you, because I was afraid you'd think I was meddling and be unhappy."

"No no no!"

Xu Zhichun's strategy of retreating to advance was effective. Chunfen's mother shook her head repeatedly: "I, of course I know you are doing this for Chunfen's own good. Madam Xu, thank you. I, I will think about it carefully."

"If you need my help, please don't hesitate to ask."

"Okay, okay."

Chunfen's mother was distracted. Of course, she didn't think Xu Zhichun would lie or talk nonsense. However, this marriage was arranged by her daughter-in-law through someone else, who said it was a perfect match. Her daughter-in-law couldn't possibly have bad intentions. So where did things go wrong?
Yes, the daughter-in-law must have been deceived!
Spring Equinox Mother rushed home in a flurry to ask her daughter-in-law, Xu Shi.

She phrased it tactfully, but when Madam Xu heard that it was Xu Zhichun who had been too talkative, she immediately flew into a rage. "Does only Madam Xu care about that fool Chunfen? Are we, her own family, going to harm her? This marriage is already arranged. If Mother wants to back out now, isn't that just playing with people's feelings? How could they possibly agree to that? Besides, after this whole mess, Chunfen, who was already unwanted, can forget about ever getting married again."

"Everyone knows that the Lian family's child bride died of illness because she was sickly since childhood. How could she have been beaten to death? That's nonsense."

"Egg is the only son in the family, isn't it normal for him to have a bit of a temper? Is this something to talk about?"

When Chunfen's mother heard what her daughter-in-law said, she hesitated again.

Xu Zhichun had been waiting for her to come to him, but she didn't come for a long time, which made him somewhat disappointed.

A pregnant daughter-in-law is precious, and she will be even more precious after she gives birth to a son. But what did Chunfen do wrong?
She thought that even if the woman didn't trust her, she would at least try to find out for herself.

Xu Zhichun then had Granny Qin Qing "inadvertently" reveal some more information to Chunfen's mother: Dan'er's mother, Aunt Lian San, had arranged a wife for Xu's younger brother. The Xu family said that they hadn't spent a single penny on this wife, and they heard that she was an orphan, and that Aunt Lian San's family were her cousins, making them her closest relatives.

To put it bluntly, Madam Xu was exchanging the marriage arranged by the Spring Equinox for the marriage of her younger brother from her maternal family.

If even Dan'er really has no problems, would Aunt Lian San not give the Xu family a single penny to find a daughter-in-law?

Spring Equinox was trembling with anger, finally realizing that something was wrong.

These things can't be hidden from someone who's interested. If you're willing to inquire carefully, you can definitely find out. Who doesn't have a few distant relatives?
Chunfen's mother then learned that Lian Dan'er not only had a violent temper and loved to beat people—beating them to death when he did—but although he hadn't directly killed his child bride, he was definitely involved. Furthermore, he sometimes seemed mentally unstable.
Chunfen's mother was trembling with anger. She said, "Even Third Aunt's family is so well-off, how could they have chosen Chunfen? They said they only liked her because she's strong, honest, and good at managing a household. They also said their son is a bit weak, and having a strong daughter-in-law would be perfect for the work."
They spoke so frankly that she almost believed them.

When the Spring Equinox came, the parents wanted to call off the engagement, and even the Third Aunt's family was naturally unwilling.

After the betrothal gifts were exchanged, they stopped pretending and brought several brothers and sisters-in-law to their door, threatening and making threats.

Want to call off the engagement? Not a chance!
If you dare not marry their son, unless Chunfen never marries anyone else in her life, they will go to whichever family you mention it to cause trouble. In short, don't even think about it happening.

Spring Equinox nearly made his parents faint with anger.

Someone whispered something to Lian Dan'er, and Lian Dan'er's eyes lit up instantly as she looked at Chun Fen. Chun Fen had been standing silently behind her parents, but although she was simple-minded, her intuition was accurate. She sensed the gaze as soon as she was stared at and subconsciously looked back.

Lian Dan'er grinned at her.

Spring Equinox was startled, took two steps back, looked panicked, and turned pale.

Lian Dan'er's two or three cousins ​​chuckled mischievously, as if it were something particularly amusing.

Lian Dan'er strode towards Chunfen, grinning as he reached out and touched her face. Chunfen screamed in fright and dodged, "Ah! What are you doing!"

The adults on both sides, who were in a heated standoff, were startled.

"spring equinox!"

"mother!"

Chunfen threw herself into her mother's arms, clinging tightly to her arm, her face pale: "He, he, he touched my face!"

Even the whole family burst into laughter.

A woman said with a sly smile, "No wonder you're so naive, girl. Dan'er is your man, what's wrong with him touching you?"

“That’s right,” the other person grinned, his expression lewd. “Don’t even mention touching your face, touching, well, anywhere else is normal too.”

"Hahahahaha!"

"exactly!"

"Oh dear, even silly girl can be shy now!"

She didn't quite understand what Chunfen was saying, but she could tell it was very, very bad, and she burst into tears.

Spring Equinox nearly made her parents faint with anger.

"This is outrageous! You've gone too far!"

"This marriage is off! It's off! Get out of here!"

"Hmph, dream on! It's a betrothal, a betrothal. Don't you know what 'betrothal' means? It's already been betrothed, how can it be changed? You're dreaming."

"You silly girl, you're lucky someone even wants her, and you're acting all high and mighty? You really don't know what's good for you."

"Exactly, we don't look down on you, but you're the ones who do?"

"What do you want in return for breaking off the engagement?!"

"Haha, if you really want to back out, that's fine too. Just give me one hundred taels of silver, and I'll give you a refund."

"We also need sweet potatoes and potatoes."

"Oh right, we also need sweet potatoes and potatoes, thirty to fifty catties each, yes, fifty catties!"

"."

Chunfen's mother was almost brought to tears by them.

She was wrong, she was wrong! Her family should never have proposed this marriage!
Just as the argument was getting heated, Lian Dan'er's cousin, Lian Kan'er, came running over in a disheveled state: "Something's wrong! Something's wrong! That idiot is beating up my cousin Dan'er! Quick, go save my cousin!"
