As soon as I was reborn, my fiancé came to propose marriage!

Chapter 14 Dare you ask for 2 silver coins as a betrothal gift?

Snapped!

"You stinky woman, you have no right to speak here? You want to kill our family, don't you?" Cui's father couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Zhou. He was really scared when he heard what Uncle Cui said, but his mind was full of worries that Cui Xiang would not be able to find a wife in the future, and then their family's incense would be cut off.

Zhou is such an idiot, he even let everyone know about beating up his daughter!

"I don't want to live anymore. I've been married to you for so many years and gave birth to a son for your Cui family. I've worked hard for this family all these years. You actually hit me for an outsider, Cui Quan, you are so heartless!" Zhou was so frightened by the sudden slap that she stood there in a daze, looking at Cui's father in disbelief.

She quickly stepped forward, crying and punching Cui's father. Being beaten in front of others, Cui's father was embarrassed and got angry and started fighting with Zhou.

This was the first time Cui Yunzhu saw the couple fighting, and she was watching with great interest.

Uncle Cui looked at the two of them angrily, then looked at Cui Yunzhu, feeling a little dissatisfied. This girl didn't even think of stepping forward to help her parents. There were outsiders here, and she wasn't afraid of being laughed at.

"Grandpa Cui, the matchmaker is still waiting outside." Chen Yan spoke in time. He also hated the Zhou couple, but the most important thing at the moment was to quickly settle the marriage and save his wife from suffering.

Yesterday, Erzhuzi asked someone to go to Yulin Village to pass on a message to him, telling him about the Cui family's affairs. This made him very anxious, so he immediately hired a matchmaker to rush to Xiaoqiao Village.

When he arrived at the door, he heard Zhou scolding Cui Yunzhu for killing her chicken. He wanted to break in, but was afraid that Zhou would find an excuse to disrupt the marriage, so he quickly went to find Uncle Cui to come over.

Fortunately, Erzhuzi had just told him at the village entrance about the commotion at Uncle Cui's house this morning, otherwise he would never have thought of asking the younger brother of the head of the Cui family for help.

"Stop it, it's embarrassing here."

"Uncle San, these are all misunderstandings. I will definitely discipline this woman in the future. As for the clan leader..." Father Cui didn't finish his words. Of course, Uncle San Cui knew what he wanted to ask.

"Humph, what misunderstanding? This is my family's business. Do I need to trouble my eldest brother?"

"Yes Yes......"

"Let your wife go and apologize to your Third Aunt! I will think about what to do later. You should apologize if you need to, and go and explain if you need to. This marriage is really over. No one from our Cui family will dare to get involved in it from now on." Third Uncle Cui said with a frown. He was very angry in his heart, but because Chen Yan was here, he could only put on a steady and calm demeanor of an elder.

Father Cui cursed in his heart. What Cui family? Isn’t this old man saying in disguise that their family and the clan leader’s family will not let it go?

They bully him because he has a lame leg and there is no one else in his family who can do anything. Humph! When his good son passes the imperial examination, these people will come to beg him like a lapdog.

But Father Cui also knew that if he didn't handle it well, it would definitely anger the clan, so he could only smile apologetically with his hair messed up by Zhou's hair: "You are right, I will definitely let this bitch explain herself, and my nephew's marriage will definitely not be cancelled."

"Uncle Cui, I'm here today to propose a marriage. I've brought the matchmaker with me, and she's waiting outside the door." Chen Yan spoke at the right time, neither hurried nor slow, but his tone did not admit of refusal.

"Did you bring ten taels of silver? Take it out quickly! If you had said it earlier, there wouldn't be so much trouble." Zhou glared at Chen Yan in dissatisfaction. She didn't care about her embarrassing behavior just now, strode forward, and stretched out her hand to him with joy.

Cui Yunzhu frowned when she heard Zhou's words. The joy in her heart caused by Chen Yan's early proposal was suddenly diluted a lot. Ten taels, how long would Chen Yan have to save up for it, and now he had to hand over all his hard-earned money to Zhou, a vampire.

She felt sorry for him!

He couldn't let her make him suffer such humiliation!

"Third Uncle, I was young at that time and don't remember it clearly. I only remember that it was a grand occasion when the village chief's daughter got married. I heard from others that his son-in-law gave a full five taels of silver as a betrothal gift! Everyone was so envious. After all, ordinary families couldn't afford a betrothal gift of five taels of silver. Everyone said that the village chief's daughter was blessed." Cui Yunzhu said to Third Uncle Cui with a smile, as if she had just suddenly remembered something and mentioned it casually.

When Chen Yan heard this, his heart suddenly warmed up, and he couldn't suppress the smile on his face. He knew that she was feeling sorry for him.

It feels so good.

Zhou was so dazzled by the ten taels of silver that she didn't pay any attention to what Cui Yunzhu said. Naturally, she didn't notice that Cui's father and Third Uncle Cui's faces changed after hearing this. When she saw that Chen Yan didn't answer, she directly reached for the purse around his waist.

Chen Yan stepped back quickly, and Zhou didn't even touch the edge of his clothes.

"You want to marry my daughter without money? Let me see how much you have. You are not trying to trick me." Zhou chased after him unwillingly.

"What a shame! You don't even know the difference between men and women at your age." Uncle Cui said.

Cui Yunzhu breathed a sigh of relief, glad that it was this old-fashioned man who came today. Rules are not so strict in the countryside. Zhou is old and even if he really catches Chen Yan, no one will think much about it. Fortunately, Uncle Cui was there, which saved a lot of trouble.

"Cui Quan, you dare to ask for ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift for your daughter's marriage, do you think you are an official? It's not enough that you have brought harm to the unmarried men in our family, you also want to make the unmarried girls unable to get married, only then will you, the black-hearted couple, be satisfied!" Uncle Cui felt so angry that he was upset after going to the Cui family.

"Grandpa Cui, ten taels of silver is a little difficult to give, but if it can allow me to marry Yunzhu, I will definitely take the betrothal gift. But..." Of course Chen Yan had to follow the wishes of his future wife and added fuel to the fire.

"Just tell me what it is."

"My mother and sister-in-law are not happy about it. The family has been in chaos for a while and the villagers have seen the excitement. Besides, my eldest brother only gave two taels of silver as a betrothal gift when he married his wife. My eldest sister-in-law is inevitably unhappy after hearing so much. She always goes back to her parents' home to cry and complain that the betrothal gift in Xiaoqiao Village is too expensive. But it's just a quarrel between women when they have nothing to do. Don't take it to heart. When I marry Yunzhu home, they will naturally understand her goodness."

"Does your village know about this?"

"Yes, but it will only be spread for a few days, and then..."

"Is your sister-in-law's family also from Yulin Village?"

"That's not the case, Grandpa Cui!"

When Uncle Cui thought of his two unmarried granddaughters at home, he suddenly felt his blood boiling and had difficulty breathing.

He turned his head with difficulty towards Zhou and Cui's father, raised his hand and pointed at them, and without catching his breath, he fell to the ground and fainted.
