After seeing Doctor Li off, Zhou couldn't help but wipe away her tears again.
What sin have I committed to marry such a wife? What should I do after I become successful
During that blind date, I clearly thought Chu Man was pretty good, with a smiling face and a sweet mouth. But how come she became like a different person after I married her
Besides, her biological father is the village chief of Chujia Village, who is highly respected in the local area. His children cannot be too bad.
Even at the time of the engagement, no one noticed anything wrong, and the Chu family members all looked sensible, only saying that their daughter had been spoiled since childhood and couldn't bear to do hard work.
He didn't take this sentence seriously, because he was marrying a daughter-in-law, not a working ox. It didn't matter whether his wife could work or not, as long as she could live a good life with Dacheng.
Who would have thought that something would go wrong on the very day I got married.
It would have been fine if the bride's brother had overturned the table, as they would have just thought he was just being young and drunk.
But the new daughter-in-law smashed her son's head that night and drove him out of the new house.
If the woman had used a little more force, wouldn't her son have been killed by the pillow
The more Jiang Zhou thought about it, the angrier and more frightened she became.
No! She wanted to go and talk to her third brother's wife about what to do.
Zhou locked her son's door, thought for a while, and then locked the door of the new house. Then she went to Jiang Sanlang's house and cried to her third brother's wife about her depression.
"I really regret not waiting for Dalang to come back before arranging a marriage for Dacheng. Such a hasty arrangement is definitely not a good one."
Zhou wiped her tears and said, "Aunt San, what do you think we should do?"
Chunniang couldn't make up her mind either.
There might have been room for maneuver if the bride had not been picked up at the beginning, but now that she has been brought home, it is impossible not to find a reason to send the bride back to her parents' home.
But will the Chu family agree to send it back like this
"Sister-in-law, didn't you ask what Dacheng means?" Chunniang asked.
Zhou sighed, "What else can he do? He almost lost his life before the wedding night. Will he dare to get close to her in the future?"
Chunniang thought for a moment and said, "Why not use Dacheng's injury as an excuse to ask the Chu family to come pick him up."
Zhou was stunned, "Is it possible?"
"Why can't we do this? The girl from the Chu family almost killed our Dacheng. Who among the people from the Chu family who sent the bride off yesterday didn't know about this?"
That was why they left in a hurry early the next morning and did not dare to raise any conditions. They were probably afraid that the Jiang family would come after them.
"This...what if they don't come to pick us up?" Zhou was undecided.
Chunniang: "Then tell the Chu family that if they don't come to pick us up, we will report it to the authorities and let them make the decision."
She hit the groom and seriously injured him on the wedding night. No family would tolerate a daughter-in-law like her.
Zhou gritted her teeth and said, "Okay! I'll go discuss this with Dalang and ask him to send someone to Chu Village to pass on the message."
This is a serious matter, and we have to find two respected elders to go and deter them.
At this time, Yingbao poked her head out from the side and whispered, "Aunt, I'll prescribe some medicine for Brother Dacheng so that he can sleep well these few days. You can tell that family that Brother Dacheng is in a coma. This way, we have a better chance of winning."
Brother Dacheng has a head injury and needs more sleep and rest, so this move kills two birds with one stone.
"Okay, I'll tell Dalang."
Zhou got up and said goodbye, went next door to call Dani back, asking her to go home and look after her brother Dacheng, and then she quickly walked towards the old house.
When Chunniang saw her sister-in-law leave, she turned around and glared at her daughter, "We adults are discussing something, why do you, a little kid, butt in on it? If your brother Dacheng regrets it one day, he will blame you!"
Yingbao: "I'm not afraid of his blame! And Dacheng brother won't regret it."
Chunniang poked her daughter's forehead with her finger: "How old are you? What do you know?"
The only thing in the world that is the most unpredictable is the relationship between men and women.
Dacheng had just gotten married. If he couldn't bear to leave the girl from the Chu family, he would go and bring her back. Then his daughter would be in a difficult situation.
"I'm already four years old, I know everything." Yingbao laughed, covering her forehead.
Chunniang was speechless.
In the afternoon, Yingbao brought Jiang Cheng a bowl of black and bitter medicine. After watching him drink it and fall asleep, she skipped back home.
The new daughter-in-law, Chu Man, did not leave the house all day, and both meals were brought to her by Dani.
At noon the next day, someone from the Chu family finally came.
The people who came this time were not the ones who came to send off the bride, but three older men.
The three of them went to visit the injured Jiang Cheng first.
The young man had a thick cotton cloth wrapped around his head, his eyelids were black and his face was pale. He was lying on the kang without moving, looking horrifying.
An old man stretched out his finger to feel his pulse, and his expression gradually became solemn.
He turned to an old man with a long beard, shook his head, and sighed, "The child is seriously injured. Man Niang really went too far."
The old man with a long beard flew into a rage upon hearing this. He turned around and left the house. He bowed to Jiang Dalang and Zhou in the courtyard and said, "I am really sorry. It is all because of my poor parenting that he spoiled Manniang to this extent. I will take Manniang back and discipline her properly. However, regarding the matter of breaking off the engagement, please consider it for a moment, father-in-law."
Jiang Dalang raised his hand and said, "Mr. Chu, it's not that I don't consider it carefully. This is about my son's life. My family cannot want this daughter-in-law anymore."
The old man with a long beard looked unhappy, but he still insisted: "In this case, we will take Manniang back with us, but the marriage between our two families will remain the same. Anyway, your son and Manniang have not yet been married, so why not find someone else to marry your son?"
Jiang Dalang waved his hands when he heard this: "No, no, this is not right."
You must be kidding. We finally got rid of a big Buddha and now he's giving his family a flying monkey. They won't be able to handle it.
The matchmaker who was following beside him smiled and said, "Mr. Chu's suggestion is good. Brother Jiang should agree to it. The Chu family has several young ladies of the right age, and they are all good-looking and virtuous."
Jiang Zhou, who was standing aside, couldn't help but give the matchmaker a cold look.
It was this guy who replaced the horoscope in Matchmaker Shen's hand with Chu Man's, and swore to heaven that Chu Man was of first-class appearance, good family background, and her father was a decent man. Only then did he fall in love with her.
It would be foolish to believe him now.
At this time, Chu Man was called out. When she saw the person coming, she ran over and shouted, "Grandpa, you are finally here, wuwuwuwuwu... The Jiang family bullied me, I want to go home."
"That's enough!" The old man with a long beard looked at her coldly with his hands behind his back, "Go pack your clothes and come back with me!"
Chu Man was very happy when she heard that. She immediately stopped crying and ran back to the house to pack her things.
She didn't want to stay in this damn place for even a single day, and it would be best if she never had to come back.
Chu Man packed carefully. She not only filled a box with her own clothes, but also stuffed the clothes and jewelry that the Jiang family brought when they picked up the bride into the box.
Then he looked around and stuffed several of Jiang Cheng's new clothes into the suitcase, preparing to take them back for his brother to wear.
Dani stood at the door and watched for a long time. She couldn't help but walk into the house, stretched out her hand to pull out her eldest brother's clothes, and said coldly: "You can only take your own clothes, you are not allowed to take my eldest brother's."
Even a blind man can see what this woman is planning. She wants to take everything in the house back to her parents' home.
Humph, I'm already planning to cancel the engagement, how can I let her do whatever she wants
"And these jewelry, take them out too!" Dani opened the red lacquered wooden box and fought with Chu Man for the jewelry box. "These were all bought by my eldest brother, you are not allowed to take them away!"
