Rebirth 91, this time I want to be a doctor
Chapter 78 I paid the bride price
Meng Xiangyong fell to the ground, frightening everyone. Fortunately, he recovered quickly and slowly sat up. Then he stood up unsteadily, picked up the stick again, and called the people who came with him to join him. Liu Xiaochuan took Zhang Chao and hurriedly hid in Chen Sumei's yard and closed the door.A good man doesn't suffer the immediate disadvantages. There are many people on the other side, so it's easy to get hurt in a fight.
Meng Xiangyong led a few people to kick down the door of Chen Sumei's house. The wooden door of Chen Sumei's house was shaky. The door was not a door panel, but a wooden frame. Liu Xiaochuan picked up a pole and fought with Meng Xiangyong and others through the crack in the door.
Chen Sumei's father and brother were stamping their feet anxiously in the yard. Naturally, they did not dare to offend the Meng family, but they could not drive Liu Xiaochuan and Zhang Chao out. They were Chen Sumei's classmates. If they were really beaten up in his house, they would also It’s hard to explain, not to mention that Teacher Du is here.
After all, there were many people on the other side, but fortunately there was a door across them, so Liu Xiaochuan and Zhang Chao could still cope with it.The two sides were confronting each other across the door, and Chen's father was worried about how this matter would end.
"Stop it!" shouted a middle-aged man in his 50s who came over. He was short, wearing a Chinese tunic suit, and had a pen in his jacket pocket.
"Secretary Meng, you're here!" Chen Sumei's father greeted quickly.
"Old Chen, what's going on?"
Before Chen's father could answer, Meng Xiangyong rushed to say: "Second uncle, these boys are Chen Sumei's classmates. They said they came to steal the bride. They beat me just now and bullied our old Meng family. How can you We have to make the decision.”
Secretary Meng was furious. He knew that his son was useless. The old Chen family was short of money to marry a wife, so they borrowed money from him. He just happened to have a daughter from the Chen family for his son.The betrothal gift money has been given in advance, and they are waiting to host a banquet for the two of them next year. The son's life event will be settled. Who would want to find Chen Yaojin halfway?
He said to Liu Xiaochuan and others: "Where are you from? Why did you come to our Shuanggou Village to cause trouble and beat people."
When Liu Xiaochuan saw him coming up, he threw a big troublemaking hat at him and immediately replied: "Secretary Meng, right? Don't talk nonsense. We are Chen Sumei's classmates and are here to persuade her to go back to school. This is Our class teacher, Mr. Du. Just now these few people made the first move, and I was forced to fight back, as all the young and old people watching can testify."
"Yes, it was indeed your nephew who made the first move. Just now he chased and beat these two young men, knocking down the teacher and spraining his feet." The Chen family in Xigou is a wealthy family, although it is not as good as the Meng family in Donggou. There is strength in numbers, but the children of Lao Meng's family just kicked in the door of Chen Sumei's house and chased Liu Xiaochuan and others. They were too bullying.As the head of the Chen family, although I can't help, I can still be fair.
Teacher Du also spoke. "Secretary Meng, I am Chen Sumei's class teacher. I heard that her father accepted the bride price from your family and wants to marry her to your son. She is not yet 18 years old. This is illegal for you."
Secretary Meng naturally saw Teacher Du. The way he was dressed was obviously not from the countryside.He didn't dare to act rashly. If it was just these two young boys, he would give them a beating first.
"Teacher, in our rural areas, children get married earlier than in your city. Besides, I just made an appointment with Lao Chen first, and waited until the two children were old enough to get the marriage certificate. Isn't this illegal?"
Liu Xiaochuan said first: "It is against the law for you to force women to marry against their will. Chen Sumei herself did not agree. If we file a lawsuit with the Women's Federation, we will definitely file a complaint. Secretary Meng, you are the leader of the village and you are well-informed." Guang, you must know that I’m not talking nonsense.”
"Young man, you can't say this nonsense. It was Lao Chen who approached me about this marriage first. I have already collected the bride price. It's not me who forced the child. If you really don't want to, it's no problem. Just return the bride price to me. That’s enough, it’s not like our old Meng family can’t find a wife.”
Liu Xiaochuan looked at Secretary Meng's son who looked like an eggplant bun and said to himself: "With your son's virtues, if you were not the village secretary, how could he have a wife?"
Secretary Meng turned to Chen Sumei's father and said: "Old Chen, since your second girl is not willing, you should have said it earlier. What do you think you are doing now? Otherwise, just return the betrothal gift to me, so as to save others. Say that our old Meng family robbed your daughter.
Secretary Meng has already found out that the Chen family has spent all the money from the bride price, so of course they can't get it out. Doesn't your school care about the students' education and pay them back?
Father Chen opened his mouth and stammered: "Secretary Meng, I spent all the money, and I didn't say anything about breaking off the engagement."
"Teacher, you have also seen that Lao Chen is not willing to break off the engagement, so you should stop meddling in his own business, right?" Secretary Meng said with his hands behind his back. He had already decided on Lao Chen's family.
"Yes, it's just a dog stalking a mouse, minding your own business!" Meng Xiangyong and others also followed suit.
"Secretary Meng, can I just pay you back the gift money?" Liu Xiaochuan asked.
"That's right, after paying back the bride price, our old Meng family will never bother about this matter again. After all, our surname is Meng. We still understand the etiquette and the teachings of Confucius and Mencius."
"Okay, I will pay back the money for Chen Sumei. The marriage between Secretary Meng's family and the Chen family is cancelled. All the young and old men in Shuanggou Village will bear witness." Liu Xiaochuan said to the crowd around him.
Secretary Meng smiled. "Young man, don't talk nonsense. Do you want to go home and discuss it with the adults at home? The old Chen family took my 1 yuan betrothal gift. Are you going to pay it back for them?" You know, nowadays, most people pay a bride price for marrying a daughter-in-law. But there was only 5000 yuan. Secretary Meng’s son was a coward, but he was very wealthy. So if he spent 1 yuan on it, the Chen family would naturally agree.
"I thought how much it was, I'll pay it back to you now." As he said that, Liu Xiaochuan took out a bundle of hundred-yuan bills from the pocket of his jacket.
Not only Secretary Meng, but also the people watching the excitement in Shuanggou Village were shocked. Where did this young man come from? He casually took out 1 yuan.
Teacher Du was also very shocked. Liu Xiaochuan dropped out of school last year to work. How could she have so much money this year? 1 yuan was enough for her three years' salary.
Liu Xiaochuan handed the money to Secretary Meng who was still in a daze through the door, "Secretary Meng, please count it. By the way, when the Chen family took your money, did you have any IOUs or vouchers? Please take it out." .”
Father Chen was the first to say: "I didn't write an IOU. We rural people are all about credit. How can we write those things?"
"Be true to your word? Your daughter promised me a son if you were true to your word, and now you regret it."
Secretary Meng didn't expect Liu Xiaochuan to come up with the money immediately. He didn't lack the 1 yuan, but his daughter-in-law.The old Chen family's Ermei looks pretty good, and it's just for the old Meng family to improve their genes.Unlike his wife, Hei Buliuqiu is short and ugly. He originally wanted his father-in-law to be rich, but as a result, the son he gave birth to now looks like an eggplant bun.
Chen's father didn't know how to answer after hearing this. He had indeed promised Secretary Meng to marry Chen Sumei to his son, but he was in urgent need of money and had no choice. Now, since Liu Xiaochuan can provide the money for the gift, his daughter will not marry Lao Meng. Of course my son is better.The appearance of my daughter's classmate is a dozen or so times ahead of the old Meng boy.
But now it is true that he has regretted it. Father Chen is stammering and doesn't know what to say. "Secretary Meng, I...I..."
Meng Xiangyong led a few people to kick down the door of Chen Sumei's house. The wooden door of Chen Sumei's house was shaky. The door was not a door panel, but a wooden frame. Liu Xiaochuan picked up a pole and fought with Meng Xiangyong and others through the crack in the door.
