Chapter 67

The director of public security shook his head. "Why are you being so polite, kid? I'm in charge of the village's public security. I've already sent someone to find Secretary Liu. As long as we're here today, we won't let them take you away!"

Chu Xianglan was moved and thanked him repeatedly.

With the support of the brigade, Bai Ying looked at Cai's mother with a cold face, "Yes, you paid a hundred yuan for the betrothal gift, but I didn't take the betrothal gift, and I didn't spend a penny. So I don't recognize this marriage. Whoever took your money should go after him!"

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Bai was furious.

Even at her advanced age, she showed no sign of weakness. She pinched her waist and angrily scolded with full energy, "You little bitch! I'm your grandmother, so of course I have the final say on your marriage! Besides, the family I found for you is so good, you're going to enjoy a good life once you enter their house, so don't be so ungrateful!"

Hearing this, Bai Ying couldn't help but laugh, "Grandma, why don't you get married when it's such a good match? Grandpa has been dead for so many years anyway, it's time for you to find a companion."

"Pfft!"

A burst of laughter came from the crowd. Those who were watching the fun always wanted to stir up trouble, and they all picked up the topic and started gossiping.

"That's fine, since it's Old Lady Bai who collected the money, then she can just marry him!"

"A fool and an old lady, don't look down on each other."

"They're a perfect match! They're a perfect match! Hahahaha..."

The malicious looks from those around her made Old Lady Bai so angry that she almost had a cerebral hemorrhage. She didn't dare argue with those who gossiped about her and could only point at Bai Ying, "You, you, you...you unfilial descendant!"

There are many rules in rural areas of Shandong Province. The most important one is that the words of the elders are like imperial decrees, and the younger generations are not allowed to talk back. Those who talk back will face criticism.

However, I don’t know if it’s because Old Mrs. Bai no longer behaves like an elder, but when Bai Ying contradicted her, not only did no one speak up for her, but everyone else laughed at her.

Ever since her husband died and Old Lady Bai became the head of the Bai family, she has never suffered such injustice!

All the younger generations of the Bai family coaxed her humbly, just like coaxing Empress Dowager Cixi, but Bai Ying, the granddaughter, actually didn't give her any face?

Old Mrs. Bai was almost mad with anger. Her body was swaying in the cold wind, as if she would fall to the ground at any moment.

Seeing this, Qiao Xiaoling quickly supported Old Lady Bai and kept trying to calm her down. Her pretty face was filled with anger as she looked at Bai Ying, "Bai Ying! How dare you talk to Grandma like that? Do you still respect me as an elder? Apologize to me now!"

"Oh?" Bai Ying raised the corner of her mouth and said with interest, "If elders are really that important to you, then I remember you are two years younger than me, so you should call me cousin. Is this bossy attitude you have now, really how you treat your elders?"

"...!"

Qiao Xiaoling's eyes widened, and with her limited vocabulary, she was speechless for a moment.

Is it her fault that she didn't read enough books?

"Pfft!"

Zhou Li, who followed Bai Ying, immediately smiled happily.

It was very uncomfortable to be criticized by Bai Ying before, but now it’s really interesting to watch Bai Ying criticize others!

Zhou Li chose to stand up and speak for Bai Ying. "This matter is so easy to handle. Whoever receives the betrothal gift will marry her. It's fair."

"Yohoho..."

The members of the cooperative also started to make a fuss, "Old Lady Bai, you are so old, why are you still so shy? Go home with your mother-in-law and your husband!"
