Chapter 2: The Marriage Exchange Fails

Xiang Lianhua hurriedly ran from afar, but before she even got home, she heard a commotion inside and a large crowd gathered at the door. The wedding sedan chair was particularly eye-catching, and she immediately sensed that something was amiss.

She hurriedly pulled at her clothes and ran over, only to see Xiang He, who was supposed to be getting married, standing next to the matchmaker with a money bag in her hand, and both of their eyes were fixed on her!

When his eyes moved, they met Xiang He's gaze.

Xiang He smiled slightly at her, "How about it? I think her figure is quite good. Look at me, I'm like a bean sprout, I'm definitely not to Master Xu's liking. You decide whether to give me money or a woman."

The matchmaker truly looked her over from head to toe, her palm-leaf fan waving slightly as she frowned. "This one still needs a closer look..."

Xiang Lianhua's heart skipped a beat for no reason. Noticing the inexplicable emotion in her heart, she glared back. Her mother's voice beside her drew her attention, and she quickly went over to help Yu Shi up. "Mother, what's wrong? Why is she back?"

Madam Yu shoved her, "Go and snatch the silver back!"

Grandma guarded the money the most carefully, so how did it end up in that wretched girl's hands?

Without much hesitation, Xiang Lianhua rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward. "He'er, you're already married, why are you back? Quickly return the money to your grandmother."

Xiang He completely disregarded Xiang Lianhua's self-righteousness and instead, together with the matchmaker, stared intently at her wrist.

"Tsk tsk tsk," the matchmaker's sharp eyes scrutinized her face carefully, "It's not worth it. I still want the money. Judging from your posture, I can't take you back. It would be a waste of my energy."

"Is that right? Neither of these is a profitable deal. Please take care, old woman."

As the two were talking, those around them were completely confused, but there was one sentence that Li from the Xiang family heard perfectly clearly.

"No one is allowed to take my money!"

Li rushed forward like a madwoman, and the matchmaker quickly dodged a few steps, not wanting to get hurt, and just watched as Xiang He dealt with this crazy woman.

However, this girl was still gentle and soft-hearted at noon, but now she is so tough, and her strength is much greater than that of the others. Could it be that she has really been pushed to the limit?

The people outside were also watching with great interest. They'd only been gone for a little over half an hour, and the girl who returned was completely different; she dared to lay a hand on her grandmother and even flirt with her like that…

Xiang He jumped onto the bed again, holding up the money bag and looking down at her. "Old woman, I just talked to the matchmaker, and she said she doesn't want me. Do you think we should let my second sister come and marry in exchange? Anyway, we're about the same age. If she's willing to go, she can keep your money bag."

"no!"

Several voices shouted at the same time, and two more family members returned from outside the door. One was the head of the family, and the other was Xiang Lianhua's father and Xiang He's uncle.

The original owner's grandfather gripped a hoe, slamming it against the ground, glaring angrily, "He girl, what are you doing! Get down here!"

Xiang He remained unmoved. Su Shi and the two children had appeared beside her unnoticed, their eyes filled with worry. "He'er, come down first..."

"Mother, don't be afraid. If a fight breaks out, remember to stay far away."

Standing on the ground, Li was furious. Her mind was only on the money, and seeing the weeping Su, she instantly flew into a rage. Her face burning, she stretched out her hand to strangle Su, yelling, "You worthless wretch! Give me back the money!"

Before her hand could even touch Su, a foot came from mid-air and kicked her arm precisely, causing her to fall backward.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, her obese body trembled a few times when she landed, almost cracking the ground.

The two children had already helped Su Shi away to prevent further injury.

Li was also surprised that Xiang He would actually kick her, especially with so many people watching outside. Anger and embarrassment flared up at the same time, and she slapped her thighs and started crying.

"Oh God! My granddaughter is bullying her grandmother! This unfilial brat even stole my money! What use is it to her?! Oh God!~~~"

The old man was furious. "He girl!"

Despite his slight anger, Xiang He smiled calmly, "Grandpa is back. We were just discussing having Second Sister switch marriages, but the two matchmakers don't want her, they only want money. What should we do?"

Xiang Lianhua's face darkened several shades. "I won't marry him!"

Yu, whom she was supporting, pulled her behind her, saying, "You wretched girl, don't even think about defiling my Lotus!"

"Oh, you promised me endless wealth and luxury when you asked me to marry you, but now that you're married, it's all a waste. You really have a good idea."

Everyone knows the wickedness of Master Xu. The girls who go to his mansion are basically never able to come out unharmed. Whether they survive or not is still unknown, let alone enjoy wealth and luxury.

Xiang He raised her left hand and glanced at the wound wrapped in her clothes. How desperate the original owner was when she died, even her soul was grieving and begging her not to let this family go. Now that she had taken over this body, Xiang He would not let this family live a comfortable life.

The wound was still throbbing, and a chilling aura, unnoticed by her, was spreading. The people around her were silent for a moment, but when she looked up, a kind smile appeared on her face.

"Matchmaker, they all refuse to remarry, what should we do?"

The matchmaker stretched out her hand, "Give me back the money. It's so late, I need to hurry back and explain to Master Xu."

"no!"

Just moments ago, Li was lamenting her granddaughter's lack of filial piety, but now she sprang to her feet and ran straight toward He again, her legs moving with such agility that she seemed nothing like the frail old woman she had just been crying out for.

Seeing that Li was so fast, Su ignored her sore and aching legs and rushed forward to stand in front of Su He, opening her arms to hug her.

The sudden embrace startled Xiang He for a moment. The agile old woman bumped into the two of them. Xiang He sat down by the bedside. Su Shi's back and spine took a heavy blow. She gritted her teeth and hid the pain, but her hands were still holding Xiang He.

"Auntie!"

The younger brother rushed over and shielded Su Shi behind him, his eyes slightly red and his neck stiff, "You're not allowed to bully Mother and Sister!"

Li Shi, ignoring everything else, gritted her teeth and raised her fist at Xiang Yang with all her might. At the critical moment, Xiang He shoved the two aside and kicked Li Shi, striking her squarely in the stomach.

"Ouch!!!"

Li fell to the ground with a thud, clutching her stomach and rolling around.

Everyone outside, including their own family, was startled. The grandfather was furious, grabbed a hoe, and rushed over, shouting, "What are you doing, you brat! You're out of control!"

Xiang He had lost patience and held out the silver to the matchmaker, demanding, "Will you trade or not!"

This time, Li was truly anxious. Ignoring the pain, she insisted on getting up, shouting, "Change it! Change to Lotus Flower! Give me back my silver!"

She only had money in her eyes, but Madam Yu and her eldest uncle wouldn't allow it. They tried their best to protect Xiang Lianhua behind them, saying, "Mother, you're being foolish! The Xu family only takes in money and never gives it out! How can we let Lianhua go to her death!"

Seeing their behavior, the matchmaker rolled her slanted eyes, reached out and took the silver, then glanced helplessly at Xiang He, "I don't even want it if you're willing to trade! A used woman like that, Master Xu doesn't care."

The sarcastic words reached everyone's ears, and everyone's face was filled with shock. The uncle's heart skipped a beat, "What does 'slut' mean...?"

"Don't understand?" The matchmaker, fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan, walked towards the door. "A girl who's lost her virginity, no longer a virgin."
