Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f

Old Cao, having no other choice, forced himself to remain calm and said:

"Everyone, you've misunderstood. Why would we come all this way to scam people?"

It's really too far; the round trip takes up a lot of time.

"Since you insist on having someone as a witness, I'll go back and call our village chief. Is that alright?"

Xu Qing raised his hand and pressed it down, and the villagers quieted down.

She said, "Okay. I'll wait then."

Old Cao fled in panic with his wife.

On the way, Aunt Cao asked worriedly, "Husband, how could the village chief possibly vouch for us?"

Old Man Cao glared at Old Woman Cao and said angrily:

"It's all your fault, you're good for nothing and good for nothing."

That old bastard village chief was also involved in seizing Hui Niang's family's land back then.

If he doesn't want me to tell anyone, he has to help me.

Cong'er said that as long as we can spend 100 taels to bribe officials, he can go to the county school to study.

Our family only has 70 taels of silver in total. If we take it all out, will we starve?

We can live on air, but what about Cong'er? Can you bear to let him live on air with us?

This matter can only succeed; failure is not an option.

When her son was mentioned, Aunt Cao immediately put aside her anxiety and joined forces with Old Man Cao.

Meanwhile, Wang Daba, after asking around and making numerous inquiries, finally learned which ship Xu Qing was on when he left Haiqu.

After catching up with Xu Qing in Dukou Town, Wang Daba painted a portrait of him.

With the help of the county magistrate of Dukou Town, it was learned that Xu Qing was from Xujia Village, which was under the jurisdiction of Datong Town.

Wang Daba rushed to Xujia Village without stopping. When he saw the person he had been thinking about day and night, Wang Daba rushed to Xu Qing.

"Madam Xu, I've finally found you!"

Zhao Da immediately stepped in front of Xu Qing and shouted in a deep voice, "Who goes there?"

Xu Qing looked at the familiar "turtle" with the unibrow in front of him, not expecting that this person would arrive so quickly.

Wu Yu hadn't even brought his younger brother back yet, but this person had already come looking for him.

The guards behind Wang Da Ba drew their swords with a "whoosh" and shouted, "How dare you be so insolent in front of the young master! Get out of the way!"

Zhao Da refused to budge and remained blocking Xu Qing's way.

Xu Qing patted Zhao Dazhi on the shoulder: "It's okay, I know this person."

Zhao Da hesitated for a moment before stepping aside and standing behind Xu Qing.

However, they kept a close eye on Wang Da Ba and his group, ready to charge at any moment.

With no one in the way, Wang Daba took another step toward Xu Qing, standing almost face to face with him.

He looked down at Xu Qing and said affectionately:

“Madam Xu, you don’t know how long I’ve been looking for you since we parted ways in Haiqu City.”

No woman has ever treated me like you have.

I was originally planning to let you go.

But I can only fall asleep every night thinking of your face, and the words you said to me keep echoing in my ears.

Unbeknownst to me, you have had such a profound impact on me.

I have convinced my mother, and she agrees to let me marry you as my second wife.

"Will you marry me now?"

Xu Qing shuddered, her skin crawling with goosebumps, and forced herself to suppress the urge to vomit.

"Can you promise me something?"

Wang Daba said happily, "Tell me, as long as I can do it, I'll go through fire and water for you!"

Xu Qing pointed to Wang Da Ba's eyebrows and said, "Take care of your eyebrows before you talk to me, otherwise I'll easily lose focus when I see you."

Wang Da Ba almost lost his composure, his expression filled with deep emotion. He asked uncertainly, "What...what did you say?"

Xu Qing was speechless: "Are you hard of hearing? You can't even hear what I'm saying when you're this close? I told you to get your eyebrows done before you come back."

Wang Da Ba's face finally broke down, and he shrieked:

"Xu Qing! Don't push your luck!"

Our bodies, hair, and skin are gifts from our parents. I cherish them dearly.

You can't even bear to cut your nails, and you want me to get my eyebrows done?

What do you mean? Do you want me to have my eyebrows shaped like yours?

Xu Qing covered her ears and waited until Wang Da Ba finished yelling before taking out a handkerchief from her pocket to wipe the saliva off her face.

"Why are you so agitated? If you don't want to, you don't have to. Nobody can force you."

"The son of a prefect, my foot! Who taught you to speak so loudly and spit on others? Is this your upbringing?"

Wang Daba's cheeks flushed red from Xu Qing's words. He angrily flicked his sleeves and said coldly:

"I'll ask you one more time, are you willing to marry me as my second wife? You're a divorced woman with two children."

"The fact that I'm granting you the position of a secondary wife is already an immense favor; your ancestors' graves are emitting auspicious smoke, do you even know that?!"

Wang Da Ba stared intently at Xu Qing, as if he would beat her up the moment she refused.

Wang Daba didn't know what was wrong with him. Ever since Xu Qing scolded him, he should have been furious.

But when he got home, he kept thinking about the scene of her scolding him.

Her radiant spirit was unforgettable, and one could even wish to be scolded by her again.

Wang Daba also tried to play around with the women who were interested in him, but it was just too boring and dull.

He lost interest after saying just a few words.

Therefore, he increasingly desired Xu Qing; he wanted to conquer her.

Every woman in Haiqu dislikes him and wants to marry him, so why doesn't Xu Qing like him? And why does she reject him again and again?

"What difference does it make whether I want to or not?"

Xu Qing looked directly into Wang Da Ba's eyes and spoke calmly.

Wang Daba practically spat out the words through clenched teeth:

"It would be best if you were willing, but if you dare to refuse me, I have plenty of ways to make you agree."

I don't think you want to experience that kind of feeling, so for your own good, I advise you to just agree.

Xu Qing smiled indifferently: "I'd really like to experience what you're describing."

Alright, if you don't have anything else, get out of the way and don't block the way.

As soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, Zhao Dazhi forcefully blocked her path from behind.

"My boss said, please don't block the way."

Wang Da Ba laughed in extreme anger:

"Fine, fine, since you insist on refusing to listen to reason and choosing the hard way, I'll grant your wish."

As long as you don't regret it later.

But if you regret it...

"roll!"

Zhao Da roared, "A good dog doesn't block the way!"

Xu Qing was surprised. Why was Zhao Dazhi reacting so strongly today?

However, I am quite satisfied with his performance.

Not bad, it wasn't for nothing that we treated this kid well.

Go back and raise wages!

Wang Daba's guards drew their swords and pointed them at Zhao Dazhi, ready to strike as soon as their master gave the order.

Xu Qing didn't want Zhao Da to fight Wang Daba's men head-on.

They had knives and outnumbered him; no matter how brave Zhao Da was, he couldn't fight them off.

“Young Master Wang, this is Xu Family Village. Even if you are the son of the Prefect, you cannot harm people without reason.”

Wang Da Ba suppressed his anger and said to his men, "Put it down, let's go!"
