I'm dressed up as the timid eldest daughter, and the whole family has to listen to me!

Upon hearing this, Su Feng hurriedly said to Aunt Sun:

"Mother, please stop saying that."

Aunt Sun glared at Su Feng.

"How come I can't even say anything to this woman before she's officially married into the family?"

"No, that's not what I meant."

Su Banxia was too lazy to listen to their argument.

"Stop with the nonsense. We're here to break off the engagement. Since Aunt Sun looks down on my little sister so much, then let's just call off the engagement between the two families."

Aunt Sun looked Su Banxia up and down and said disdainfully:

"We gave you a betrothal gift, and now you want to break off the engagement, so you have to return the betrothal gift!"

Wang Guihua nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.

“Alright, I’ve prepared the betrothal gifts. Here’s one tael of silver. I’m returning it to you. Let’s make things clear in front of the village head. From now on, our two families will have no further relationship.”

Aunt Sun was taken aback when Wang Guihua so readily offered a tael of silver. She hesitated for a moment, reaching out to take the betrothal money, but after glancing at Su Feng's expression, she silently withdrew her hand.

Seeing this, Su Feng coughed lightly.

“You’ve been taking our betrothal gifts for so long and wasting so much of my time. We spent a lot of money on the wedding a few days ago, and you have to cover all of those expenses. Also, the betrothal gifts would have to accrue interest if we put them in a bank. Since you’ve been taking our money for so long, you should definitely pay us back the interest.”

Wang Guihua glanced back at the aggrieved Su Mo, then gritted her teeth and said:

"Su Feng, stop beating around the bush. Just tell us straight: how much money do you want before you agree to break off the engagement with our family?"

Su Feng held up his hand and showed five fingers.

"Five taels of silver, and you must hand over the silver now, otherwise I will not agree to annul the engagement. I'm only giving you one day."

Upon hearing this, Wang Guihua became furious.

"Su Feng, don't push your luck. What kind of wedding does your family hold that requires so much money? Besides, even if the dowry money includes interest, you can't ask me for this much money."

Upon hearing this, Su Feng's lips curled slightly.

"I don't care, I just want this much money. If you want to break off the engagement, give me this much money, otherwise make me marry Su Mo right now."

Upon hearing this, Su Mo was so startled that she tugged at Wang Guihua's arm and whispered:

“Mother, I don’t want to marry Su Feng. Didn’t Father and my elder brother bring back five taels of silver yesterday? Just give that silver to him.”

Wang Guihua turned around and glared at Su Mo.

“If word gets out, what will people say about our family? The marriage didn’t happen, and we’re breaking off the engagement and now we have to pay the man money? That’s not fair. You’re not an old maid who can’t get married. If you get this kind of reputation now, how will you talk to your future in-laws?”

Su Mo anxiously grabbed Wang Guihua's arm and pleaded:

"Mother, I'm not worried about getting married. Just cancel my engagement with Su Feng first, otherwise I really will die at his hands."

As she spoke, Su Mo said in a tearful voice:

You don't want to see me die, do you?

Wang Guihua glared at Su Mo.

"You silly girl, how could you talk nonsense!"

Su Banxia spoke:

"Su Feng, don't go too far. If this gets out, it will be bad for your and Su Mo's reputations. Now that you're getting married, you're still making money for your own family. If anyone finds out about this, they won't dare to discuss marriage with you again!"

Su Feng tilted his head and sneered:

"So what? I don't care anyway. It's just that if I can't marry Su Mo, there's no point in marrying anyone else!"

Seeing that the two sides were deadlocked, the village headman spoke up:

"This matter needs to be resolved eventually."

He stepped forward and patted Su Feng on the shoulder.

"You're a good-looking guy, and you're smart too. Why do you have to keep bothering with Su Mo? We're from the same village, we'll run into each other all the time. There's no need to make things so tense."

As he spoke, the village head turned to look at Aunt Sun.

"Aunt Sun, as a mother, you should also say something to Su Feng. If there's no fate between them, why force it?"

Aunt Sun sighed helplessly.

"There's nothing we can do; Su Feng is just so stubborn!"

The village head smiled.

"If I hadn't come today, that would have been fine. But since I am, I'll say a few more words. Your family did indeed hold a wedding and spent the money. Now I'll act as a mediator between your two families."

As he spoke, the village head turned to look at Wang Guihua.

"Aunt Guihua, why don't you give Su Feng two taels of silver? That way, the money for the wedding and the interest will all go to him. What do you think?"

Wang Guihua lowered her head and pondered for a while. Just as she was about to speak, Su Mo tightly grabbed her hand.

"Mother, I beg you, just give it to him. I want him to cut all ties with me!"

Wang Guihua glanced back at her daughter and sighed helplessly.

"You child, I must have owed you something in my past life."

As he spoke, he took out another tael of silver from his purse and handed it to Aunt Sun along with the previous tael of silver.

"Here, here you go!"

Seeing this, Aunt Sun quickly reached out and took the money. She had never thought highly of Su Mo as her daughter-in-law, and now that Su Mo had threatened to hang herself to avoid marrying into the family, she had completely disgraced her family.

If it weren't for the fact that the betrothal gifts had already been given, and that her son was completely devoted to Su Mo, she would have gone to the Su family long ago to propose breaking off the engagement.

Now that she had gotten back the betrothal money and even received an extra tael of silver, she was naturally happy. With these two taels of silver in hand, her son could choose any kind of wife he wanted.

So Aunt Sun stopped looking at Su Feng's expression and directly took the silver from Wang Guihua.

Seeing this, Su Feng clenched his fists in anger and glared coldly at Su Mo.

"Su Mo, you're something else! Do you really hate me that much?"

Seeing that Aunt Sun had accepted the money, Su Mo finally felt relieved. Without even glancing at Su Feng, she turned to look at the village head.

"With you as our witness today, Su Feng's family has taken back the betrothal gifts, and our relationship with them is now severed. If they cause trouble at our house again in the future, we will not be polite."

Before the village head could speak, Su Feng let out a cold laugh.

"Su Mo, you are truly a shameless slut. I treat you like a human being, but you don't even consider yourself one, so don't blame me for being impolite."

Upon hearing this, Wang Guihua quickly pulled Su Mo behind her.

"Su Feng, what nonsense are you spouting? The betrothal gifts and wedding expenses have already been returned to you. Why are you still saying such outrageous things?"

Su Feng sneered and looked at Su Mo, who was standing behind Wang Guihua.

"I not only say rubbish, I've also done a lot of rubbish! Are you interested in hearing about it?"
