You said the butcher family collected a hundred taels of silver, so even if they raised me for ten years, they would definitely have a lot left. You clearly told me that, so why did the village head say that Dad’s pension was only five taels of silver?
The more she spoke, the more sad and angry she became, and in the end she was almost crying while questioning.
The village head looked at Luo Shi in disbelief: "You actually told her that. No wonder she turned against her and felt that the Tu family had wronged her.
Mrs. Luo, your husband's pension back then was clearly only five taels of silver, and not only was it all handed over to you, but later when you remarried, the betrothal gift and the five taels of silver you received were all taken as a dowry to the Zhang family!
When you left, you didn't leave a cent for the Tu family. I thought it was inappropriate at the time, and I asked the women in your family to persuade you to leave some for your children.
But you insisted that Sun Qingqing would be well fed and clothed by the Tu family. But it's different for you. If you marry into the Zhang family, you'll be a member of the Zhang family and become someone's stepmother.
If you leave the silver behind and bring too little dowry to the Zhang family, you won't be able to gain a foothold in the Zhang family and won't be able to face Zhang Yougen!
"Mrs. Luo, you left nothing to your daughter back then, so why did you lie to her? Saying that the Tu family took a hundred taels of silver from you?"
Luo was speechless and wanted to deny it, but before she could open her mouth, the village head continued, "Don't try to quibble. I'm sure Zhang Yougen knows exactly how much dowry you brought to the Zhang family back then!"
At this point, he turned and asked Zhang Yougen, "Zhang Yougen, what are you going to say? Are you planning to do the same as Mrs. Luo, flatly denying what happened back then and fabricating the lie about the one hundred taels of silver?"
"What a joke! A virgin girl's bride price is only ten taels. Luo Shi was a widow back then. Even if she was somewhat pretty, why would she need fifty taels of bride price? Are you, Zhang Yougen, a fool?"
Zhang Yougen was already mortally ashamed.
In the past, when Luo came to see Sun Qingqing, he never followed her, so he had no idea that this woman was talking nonsense in front of her own daughter and even lied about giving one hundred taels of silver to the Tu family!
This is really ridiculous. Sun Qingqing is not a fool, but she actually believed this nonsense!
It seems that this girl is not an honest person. If she didn't have something to hide, how could she believe such absurd nonsense?
Zhang Yougen was secretly alert and became more and more disgusted with Sun Qingqing, his cheap stepdaughter.
But Luo's lies were exposed, and he was also embarrassed. How could he have the face to let the Tu family continue to keep Sun Qingqing?
So even though he was dissatisfied, Zhang Yougen could only say to Luo: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and take Qingqing in to change clothes!"
Luo Shi now knew that the situation could not be reversed, so she could only pull Sun Qingqing and prepare to go to the inner room to change clothes.
Liu Zhichun stopped them directly and said, "It's not convenient inside. I'll take you to another room. The child is too young and it's easy for him to get sick."
When Mrs. Luo heard this, she felt as if she was scalded, and quickly pulled Sun Qingqing away.
She was now really afraid of the Tu family. She was really afraid that if she went in, something would happen to the Tu family's children and it would be blamed on them.
So he obediently followed Liu Zhichun to another room.
Unexpectedly, Liu Zhichun had no intention of avoiding the question. He just stared at Sun Qingqing and said, "Switch now. I'll see it with my own eyes to avoid any confusion later."
Seeing Sun Qingqing's face livid and stiff, she sneered again, "I've bathed you before. What's there to be embarrassed about you changing clothes in front of me?"
When Sun Qingqing heard this, she was so angry that she reached out to tear off her clothes.
Unexpectedly, Liu Zhichun said again: "Be careful, don't tear the clothes, otherwise you will have to pay for it, which will be too embarrassing."
She spoke softly, but her words made Sun Qingqing feel more uncomfortable than if she had yelled at her.
