Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons

So, today, Xiao Youniang finally plucked up the courage and expressed her deepest desire.

Hearing her daughter's request, Xu Liyun's brows relaxed immediately and she promised: "As long as you can brush your teeth until they are sparkling, we will go to Zhang's house together."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Youniang quickly took the toothbrush from her brother's hand and dipped it in white tooth powder. The family moved quickly and orderly, following Zhang Changshun and set out on the road to the Zhang family's old house.

At that time, the Zhang family was in turmoil due to a sudden storm.

Even the most prestigious old village chief was invited to mediate, but Yu Min's relatives from her mother's side were not easy to deal with. They completely disregarded the old village chief's face and attempted to forcibly take Zhang Erya away in public.

At this critical moment, it was Li Guifen's hug that used up almost all her strength, and Zhang Laosan's timely help, that saved her daughter from disaster.

As for Yu Min, who had brought her clansmen to ask for an explanation, she felt mixed emotions after witnessing this scene, and her words were filled with sarcasm and threats.

"Humph, you Zhang family members don't think that our Wang family is easy to bully, do you? Do you think you can take our betrothal money for free? Don't forget, Zhang Erya is a member of our Wang family after she marries. There is a contract in place, and anyone who dares to go back on his word will have to return the money with interest!"

After he finished speaking, the air seemed to freeze, and a tense atmosphere enveloped the entire Zhang family compound.

When Mrs. Zhang heard the word "return the money", she was instantly furious, as if she was ignited by an invisible fire. She quickly stepped forward, used both hands to pry open Li Guifen's arms that were tightly protecting Erya, and her brows were twisted with anger.

"Have you lost your mind? Have you forgotten that you promised to exchange your daughter for the resettlement fee? And now you are acting like this again? Let me ask you, how is the Wang family unworthy? They have more than ten acres of fertile land, and the family is well-off. Wang Qiang is as strong as an ox. If Erya marries him, she will work together with Wang Qiang, and they will be in charge of the family affairs. How can we not be blessed?"

Upon hearing this, Li Guifen felt grief-stricken and angry, with disbelief flashing in her eyes.

"Mother, you said that the Wang family is good. Erya will be able to live a good life if she marries there, which is a hundred times better than staying at home. But look, how can this be a blessing? Touch your granddaughter, she is so thin that only bones are left, and her body is covered with scars. Which one is not caused by the cruelty of the Wang family? If the child is allowed to go back, I am afraid that even her life will be in danger! Mother, can't you feel sorry for Erya? It's just five taels of silver. Let our family gather together. I will go to my mother's family to borrow some. If it doesn't work, I will go to my second brother and beg him to help us..."

Before Li Guifen could finish, Yu Min interrupted her rudely, spewing harsh insults: "Bah! Who told you it was five taels of silver? We paid a full fifteen taels for Zhang Erya! You want to settle the matter with just five taels of silver? It's just a daydream!"

These words shocked Li Guifen so much that her face turned pale instantly, and Zhang Erya could no longer hold back the tears in her eyes and they rolled down.

Zhang Laosan hugged his wife and daughter and looked at his mother with a horrified face and a trembling voice: "Mom, is what she said true? Is it really fifteen taels of silver? You clearly said it was only five taels, and you have done your best to treat Liu Wa's illness. How come it suddenly became fifteen taels?"

Facing her son's questioning, Mrs. Zhang pretended to be tough despite feeling guilty. She was disturbed by Yu Min's sudden attack and simply tore off her mask of tenderness and affection. "So what if I embezzled ten taels of silver? Which of you was not raised by me? She eats and wears the Zhang family's clothes, so why can't I keep some silver for her?"

The more Mrs. Zhang talked, the angrier she became. She wished she had only given four taels of silver at the beginning, so that the one tael of silver that Li Guifen took back to her parents' home would not have existed.

At this time, Zhang Laosan and his wife were shrouded in anger and despair, their eyes were almost spitting fire, on one side they heard their mother's unapologetic accusations, on the other side they heard Yu Min's cold urging and sarcasm. They seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss, surrounded by darkness and lost their direction.

"Don't waste time. If you can't come up with the money, let Zhang Erya out. We still have to take our daughter-in-law back to live with us!" Yu Min pressed on.

Mrs. Zhang crossed her arms arrogantly, turned her head, and said with disdain: "I don't have a penny left. If you want money, you can find a way by yourselves!"

Zhang Lao Da felt sorry for her when he saw this, but he had to persuade her: "Third brother, there is really no other way. Just let Erya go back. Things will get better slowly. Maybe after this, the Wang family will restrain themselves and stop bullying Erya."

Zhang Laosan turned around suddenly when he heard this, his eyes were sharp, and Zhang Laoda was so frightened that he fell silent and dared not mention it again.

Just as Yu Min pressed on, intending to take Zhang Erya away by force, Zhang Erya, who had been forbearing, finally exploded. Her lips were bleeding from being bitten by her teeth, and she cried out in despair: "Dad, Mom, please don't let me go back! The Wang family bought me not only to make me work like a slave, but also to make me bear a child for Wang Qiang's father!"

These tearful accusations pierced everyone's heart like a needle. Everyone present shuddered, and the hairs on their bodies seemed to stand up. The atmosphere was depressing to the extreme.

Zhang Laosan and his wife had disbelief written all over their faces. Even the usually calm old lady Zhang had her eyes wide open. The three of them simultaneously turned their gazes to Yu Min's family across the street. The air seemed to freeze.

"Is what Erya said true or false?" The old village chief's voice was majestic. His face was like dark clouds and his eyes were as sharp as knives, which made Yu Min shrink his neck involuntarily. His voice was stuck in his throat and he dared not make any sound anymore.

Even without verbal confirmation, everyone could read all the answers from Yu Min's evasive eyes, trembling fingertips and unconsciously pursed lips.

An unspoken understanding circulated among the crowd, and everyone seemed to understand the truth of the matter.

Li Guifen's grief turned into heart-wrenching cries. She hugged her daughter tightly, helpless and desperate. Every sob was like a sharp blade, cutting deep wounds in the hearts of those around her, making people unable to bear to look at it and feel heartbroken.

Zhang Laosan was furious. He turned around, picked up a brightly sharp hatchet from the corner, and rushed towards Yu Min with big strides, vowing to seek justice for his family.

Fortunately, thanks to the timely intervention of the surrounding villagers and the hasty intervention of Yu Min's family, a possible bloody conflict was avoided.

Yu Min seemed extremely frightened by Zhang Laosan's anger. She hid behind several strong brothers, shouting tremblingly while trying to save her face.

"Oh my, what kind of hospitality is this? Are you going to fight for just a few words?!"

However, such words seemed pale and powerless under the angry gazes of the villagers. They secretly mocked her in their hearts, how dare she dare to question like this!
