Dressed as a young lady, she became rich by relying on Pinxixi
Chapter 31: Quarrel Strategy
"As the saying goes, a harmonious family brings prosperity. 'Harmony' is the most important word. In a family where the eldest son is a treasure and the youngest son is a weed, our Xu family cannot bear to send our pampered daughter to such a family to be a weed."
"You hu..."
"Shut up and listen to me." Someone wanted to argue, but was restrained by Xu Siyu's domineering aura.
"When our family was dating the Tao family, we thought they were a fair family. But they would not be like this. They said they loved their son but let him suffer and almost lost his life. Aunt Tao, tell me, were you the ones who forced your son to die first?" In the end, the Tao family's parents were definitely at fault.
"You are an old girl who only cares about feeding yourself. How could you know how hard it is to get money? I need two taels of silver every twenty days to buy food. Where can you find such a good job?"
"If we can't make money in twenty days, then we can make money in two months. Anyway, our Xu family has obtained food for all the men."
Everyone knew that the Xu family and the son-in-law Yang family had expelled their husbands. Now they were in stark contrast.
"That's because you have the ability. Haven't you seen how few people in this area can get rid of their husbands?"
"Yes, if my family didn't have the ability, then we would be like everyone else, with all the men in the house having to serve. There wouldn't be a situation where you go and I don't. Aunt Tao, your family's situation is unfair to us. Besides, you could have done it without any of the three of you going. Because you're biased, you've harmed our youngest son. Now that our Xu family has seen that your Tao family isn't a good family, we naturally won't let my niece marry into your family."
"you……"
Mrs. Tao felt that she couldn't win the argument with Xu Siyu, so she turned to the easier-to-handle Xu Wangshi: "Xu Wangshi, we can have an engagement."
Xu Siyu didn't give her a chance, and kept speaking on her mother's behalf, "The engagement can be established or cancelled. My eldest brother and his wife have already repaid all the gifts from your Tao family. Besides, to say there's an engagement is just nonsense."
"You can't do this. My son can't be left unattended."
"Haha, let's be honest. Shouldn't your son be taken good care of by you, the biased parents, and your brother and sister-in-law who harbor ill intentions towards him, as compensation?"
"Uncle Village Chief, are there many people like you in Kaoshan Village who are two-faced? This shows that your villagers are not upright!"
The village chief of Kaoshan Village still didn't understand how the Xu family went from being dishonest to the Tao family being partial, and now the villagers of Kaoshan Village were corrupt.
"Village chief, don't bother with them about this matter. Bring the man back to the village and worship him in the temple. Everything will be solved."
"You dare! If you dare to use force, I will remember your faces and report you to the authorities for forcibly abducting this woman."
"How dare you, you little bitch?"
"Who are you calling a bitch?" Xu Wangshi took a step forward with a knife in her hand. She wanted to hit someone, but her daughter held her back.
"Whether you're brave or not, doesn't it just depend on whether you're willing to go out and do it? A petition at the yamen costs half a tael of silver, and my Xu family can afford it. And if you go to court, I have two brothers and four nephews to share the twenty lashes of the cane. It all depends on whether you're willing to go out and do it for Tao Cheng, a man whose father and mother don't love him."
Xu Siyu repeatedly said that the Tao couple was not good to their son. After hearing it several times, the people in Kaoshan Village naturally would not put them before Tao's parents and go to the county government to fight for Tao Cheng.
If you stand out and end up in the county government office, you'll be the one being beaten with a stick and you'll be the one being embarrassed.
As soon as the people of Kaoshan Village thought about the unexpected disaster they would suffer, they suddenly began to feel that there was no need for them to make a fuss.
He's not their son...
Even if Kaoshan Village's momentum declines and it rises again, it will not be stronger than Xu Wangshi and Xu Siyu, who already have relatives to support them.
They were defeated, but they also damaged the Xu family's fence, which was considered as going too far in helping the Tao family.
……
Never blame yourself for your mistakes, at least not during an argument. You can reflect on your mistakes afterward, but don't overly doubt or restrict yourself at the time.
This was the conclusion Xu Siyu came to after three years of inaction, when she was thinking about how she felt she was out of tune with society.
She used to think a lot about things, even if it was a small matter, she would always think about the ins and outs, what the impact would be if she did this, what the risks would be if she did that, but in fact, the matter itself is just a matter, and the impact you think about is just what you think about.
Worrying too much about vague influences will only drain your energy.
Everything you do is painful, even if the result is good.
So, what fairness and justice? Xu Siyu unconditionally and immorally stood on the side of her biological mother Xu Wang.
Instead of accepting the other person's accusation, blame him. No one is perfect, and everyone has something to blame.
Of course, after the Tao family was driven away, she would still review the causes and risks of the accident.
"Oh, my sister-in-law is really capable. Now I can talk about marriage with the Cui family without worry." He Xiangmei, who was hiding behind others just now, was now smiling with joy. Seeing this, Xu Siyu shook her head and thought that it was no wonder that Xu Wangshi had not let go of the power of housekeeper.
The way she only causes trouble and doesn't know how to solve it makes anyone worried.
Xu Siyu suddenly felt very sorry for Xu Wangshi. As expected, behind every "evil" woman, there is no one who can support her.
Fearing that the Tao family would violently snatch her away, Xu Nianyue, who had just emerged from her locked room, timidly pleaded with Xu Wangshi: "Grandma, I don't want to marry into the Cui family."
However, He Xiangmei pulled her over and started scolding her: "You girl, if you don't marry into the Cui family, which family else can you marry? Do you think you will have a good reputation if you break off the engagement?" Insulting words coming from relatives are the most hurtful.
Mrs. Xu Wang didn't say yes or no, but just waited for Xu Nianyue and He Xiangmei to refute it.
"Since my aunt can stay at home, I want to stay at home too. I want to learn how to make cakes and duvets from her. Once I learn how, I can support myself and don't need to get married."
"You are looking for death. You don't want to get married, but you are setting your sights on your aunt." He Xiangmei hurriedly covered Xu Nianyue's mouth.
The Xu family figured out why Xu Huaize's family was driven out in a hurry after being annoyed by Xu Wangshi.
Xu Nianyue started talking about pastries and down jackets. Isn't this going to make the old lady hate their eldest wife too?
However, Xu Siyu felt that this niece who grew up with her had her own thoughts.
Pushing aside He Xiangmei who was holding Xu Nianyue, he asked Xu Nianyue, "Do you like Tao Jia Erlang and not Cui Dalang?"
"Yeah." Xu Nianyue nodded.
After the engagement, Tao Cheng came to the village from time to time to give her things. She felt sorry for the dark-skinned but bright-eyed Tao Cheng. She heard him say that he was the one who took care of his family's medicinal fields most of the time, and he was the one who did most of the climbing in the mountains to collect herbs. Why couldn't the Tao family think of a way to get rid of the corvee labor?
Xu Nianyue hoped that Tao Cheng would get better, but now, she knew that she could not marry into the Tao family. When her parents broke off the engagement, she returned all those things.
But she didn't want to marry into the Cui family either. She was a normal girl and didn't want to be anyone's second wife.
