After being reborn, the school beauty's entire family knelt down to repent.

Chen Ming was not angry when he saw Kong Chunhua acting so shamelessly.

In order to introduce new fish fry as soon as possible, he had already sold all the grass carp in the fishpond to Ah San, a local thug.

When it comes to being a rogue, who can compare to that scoundrel, Indian A-San?

"Auntie, are you sure you don't want to pay compensation?"

"Hmph! I'm not going to pay compensation, what can you do about it?"

Kong Chunhua was fearless, confident that the Chen father and son were honest people who could do nothing to her.

Seeing this, the villagers were somewhat angry. Kong Chunhua's behavior was disgusting, and they all regretted saving her.

"Kong Chunhua, don't you feel guilty about what you're doing?"

"You need to compensate the Chen family immediately..."

"..."

Despite the villagers' passionate persuasion, Kong Chunhua remained completely unmoved.

At the same time, Chen Ming remained calm.

"Then there's nothing we can do. Anyway, these fish belong to that scoundrel A-San and have nothing to do with our Chen family. You can pay for them or not, it's up to you."

After saying this, Chen Ming thanked the villagers and then took Chen Yi back to the house, leaving Kong Chunhua standing there in a daze.

"Mom, what's wrong? Why are you so distracted?"

Kong Chunhua returned home in a daze, which immediately aroused Zhao Rou's suspicion.

"Daughter, something's happened. I poisoned all of that scoundrel A-San's fish. Will he come looking for trouble with us tomorrow?"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Rou was immediately shocked and hurriedly asked for the details.

After learning what had happened, Zhao Rou was completely at a loss.

"This is how to do ah……"

The next morning, Ah San came to the Zhao family's house and blocked the door.

"Your Zhao family killed my fish, you must compensate me double today!"

"This... could you give us a month's grace? We'll definitely raise the money to compensate you."

Faced with a true scoundrel like Ah San, Kong Chunhua dared not put on airs anymore.

"No, you have to pay me back all the money today. If you can't, I'll sell your daughter!"

Ah San was about to attack when Kong Chunhua and Zhao Rou were terrified.

"Let's talk this out. We really don't have the money right now, but I promise we will make it up to you, as long as you give us time."

To protect her daughter, Kong Chunhua bowed her head for the first time.

Despite Kong Chunhua's humble pleas, A-San remained unmoved.

Just then, Chen Ming happened to pass by, and Kong Chunhua quickly called out to him.

"Chen Ming, please put in a good word for me. That Indian is going to sell my daughter. How can this be allowed?"

Zhao Rou couldn't sit still any longer. She hurriedly approached Chen Ming and pleaded in a low voice, "Chen Ming, please help us. We're really desperate."

“I know I’ve done many things wrong in the past, but we’ve known each other for so many years…”

As Zhao Rou spoke, she revealed her pretty face, attempting to seduce Chen Ming with her beauty.

Chen Ming used to fall for her act the most. Even though Chen Ming had been targeting her lately, Zhao Rou believed that as long as she was willing to humble herself, Chen Ming would definitely help her without hesitation.

Seeing Chen Ming stop, Kong Chunhua thought he was wavering and quickly offered her a wager.

"If you're willing to put in a good word for me today, I'll definitely marry my daughter to you in the future, and then we'll be family..."

Currently, only Chen Ming can help them, so Kong Chunhua could only make this promise: to get through the immediate difficulties first, and then find a way to cancel the marriage later.

Kong Chunhua had all her plans in mind, but Chen Ming didn't play by the rules.

"Who are we family with? I have no interest in your promiscuous daughter."

Kong Chunhua was incredulous after being rejected by Chen Ming without any hesitation.

"How could you just stand by and watch my daughter die? What good would it do you to have my daughter sold?"

Zhao Rou was equally shocked; she never expected Chen Ming to say such a thing about her.

"What benefit would I get from helping you? You've received so much from me over the years, but what have I gotten in return?"

Chen Ming scoffed and said, "Besides, you've received so many benefits from my family over the years. Handing over all those things would be enough to compensate the Indians."

After Chen Ming finished speaking, Ah San chimed in.

"That's right, you have to compensate me today, otherwise..."

As he spoke, Ah San stared at Zhao Rou with ill intent, as if assessing how much he could fetch.

Zhao Rou was so frightened that she trembled and quickly hid behind Kong Chunhua.

"Mom, you have to save me. I don't want to be sold. Please give me all those things."

"you……"

"Hurry up! I'm in a hurry, I don't have time to waste with you guys, are you going to give me a word or not?"

Seeing that the Indian was really going to kidnap and sell her daughter, Kong Chunhua had no choice but to give in.

After all, she had raised Zhao Rou for so many years and was counting on her to bring benefits to the family. How could she really watch her be sold by that Indian?

Kong Chunhua could only suppress her heartache and painstakingly take out the benefits she had received from the Chen family over the years.

The commotion caused by the Zhao family was quite large, attracting many villagers.

The villagers witnessed the whole farce.

Originally, seeing Chen Ming's heartlessness in allowing Ah San to pressure the Zhao family, the villagers had some complaints about him.

But when the villagers saw what Kong Chunhua took out, they were shocked.

It's unbelievable that the Zhao family received so many benefits from the Chen family.

"The Zhao family is truly shameless, taking so many good things from others for no reason."

"That's right, and she even had the nerve to go around the village talking about how Chen Ming mistreated her daughter..."

"Shamelessness knows no bounds!"

"..."

Hearing the villagers' comments, Kong Chunhua's face turned pale and then red, which was quite a sight.

"What do you mean 'for no reason'? I used to see Chen Ming as a potential son-in-law."

What's wrong with a son-in-law being filial to his mother-in-law?

Kong Chunhua was embarrassed and tried to find a reason to save face.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Rou was shocked. She was already with Yu Chuang, and Kong Chunhua had agreed before. Why was she going back on her word now?

"Mom, I already have a boyfriend..."

As soon as Zhao Rou finished speaking, she was slapped hard across the face.

"Snapped!"

Kong Chunhua glared at Zhao Rou fiercely and snapped, "Who else is your boyfriend besides Chen Ming? Don't cause trouble here, go inside right now!"

"Woooo..."

Zhao Rou had never been beaten in public before, and now she had lost all face and dignity, so she could only hide in her room feeling wronged.

"What are you all looking at? Our Zhao family has long been engaged to the Chen family. We're just waiting for my daughter to come of age so she can marry into the Chen family. All these things are part of the betrothal gifts!"

Seeing Kong Chunhua's confident assertion, the villagers were skeptical.

"Don't try to build a relationship with me. I don't think much of your Chen family's daughter, let alone your son-in-law. Consider these things a donation to your family."
