Back to the ancient restaurant

Father Li glanced at Li Zi'an who was sitting back again, thinking about the behavior of his youngest son when Shen's second child had a big wedding that day, he hesitated for a moment before acquiescing.

Shen Wanmiao looked at Li Zian who was sitting aside with a smile and nodded, but Shen Wang gave Li Zian a sideways look and curled her lips.

Seeing this, Li Zifeng couldn't help but wanted to speak. Seeing that the other party was about to lose his temper, Second Brother Li quickly stretched out his hand to stop him.He raised his chin to indicate that Father Li hadn't spoken yet, as juniors, they naturally couldn't overstep without the permission of their elders.No matter how excessive the Shen family's attitude is, as long as his father hasn't spoken, if the brothers can't help but choke up first, people will laugh at their Li family for having no rules.

How could Li Zifeng not understand, sighed, and stared fiercely at Shen Wang, turned around, went to the door and squatted down with his back to the people in the room, simply trying to keep out of sight.

"Brother Li, my mother-in-law and I are here this time for the wedding of our two children." As he spoke, Shen Wanmiao rubbed his hands with a rather embarrassed expression.

On the other hand, Mrs. Shen Wang who was next to her couldn't hold back when she saw her man chattering so much, she immediately sat forward, bypassing Shen Wanmiao and said directly, "Speaking of which, the two children are not destined. I dreamed about it a while ago." Her grandma said that I shouldn't have arranged for Linghua so early. You also know that I am a very filial person, and my mother-in-law loved my daughter the most when she was alive. I dare not disobey her when my mother-in-law is alive I mean, after the old man passed away, I would not dare to disobey her. Therefore, I can only reluctantly withdraw this marriage today, so that the old man underground can rest assured."

After all, Shen Wang pretended to wipe away the tears that did not exist.

Li Zi'an, who was listening on the side, couldn't help laughing seeing the other party like this.Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Li Zian hurriedly sat upright, covered his mouth and coughed.

"I'm sorry, I felt a bit of wind and cold a while ago and it hasn't healed. Aunt Shen, please continue, continue." Li Zi'an said with a smile.

Shen Wangshi gave Li Zi'an a blank look and didn't continue, but Li's father twitched his eye bags and said leisurely, "Big sister, we people don't talk dark words. I have no objection if you want to divorce, but at least you Find a better reason. Everyone knows about the engagement of our two families. There must be a more reliable reason for this inexplicable divorce, right? If someone asks me, I will say that your family is dead The old lady disagrees? Are you thinking about whether to talk about it or not?"

Li Zian always thought that his cheap father was a good man, but now hearing what he said, Li Zian didn't expect that he was soft and thorny.

"What's unreasonable about this? Besides, this is a private matter between our two families. They don't care what we say! What? Could it be that your family disagrees? When our second child came over, you Zi'an said it, As long as our old couple come to the door in person, you agree to divorce. Now that we are here, don't you want to go back on your word?"

Shen Wang's voice gradually raised when she spoke.

"Speaking of our family, Linghua, you all know that it doesn't matter what you look like, and you can count it from ten miles and eight villages. The character is even more gentle and considerate, virtuous and generous. People who want to marry our family don't know how many numbers they have ranked. Yes. But your family, Zi'an, has taken the exam five times and even one scholar has not passed the exam. Speaking of it, we Linghua have been wronged."

Hearing this, Li Zian couldn't help but nodded, "Auntie, you are right, it is true that I am not good enough for your daughter."

Seeing that Li Zian belittled him so much, Father Li disapproved a little. No matter how good the girl of the Shen family was, she belonged to the Shen family. As long as she didn't marry into their family for a day, she was not a member of their family.No matter how bad his son was, no matter how worthless he was, it was his own, and it was not acceptable for others to say so.

Seeing that old man Li's face was livid with anger, Li Zi'an was afraid that the old man would be angry, so he got up and stroked his back silently to comfort him.

"Our family is not a dishonest person. Since we agreed to divorce, we won't regret it, but we have to clarify some things." Li Zi'an asked his father, "Father, the betrothal gift we gave to the Shen family back then how many?"

"The gift money is 20 taels of silver, ten chickens and ducks each, two horses, ten catties of sugar, and half a fan of pork. In addition, there is a silver bracelet weighing two taels." Father Li replied after thinking about it.

Not long after Li Zian had just won Tong Sheng, Father Li wanted to put money on his son's face, so the dowry gift to the Shen family was also extraordinarily generous, and the eldest daughter-in-law often got into trouble with them because of this matter.

"Uncle Shen and Aunt Shen have heard it too, but I believe you two should know how much dowry our family gave at the beginning. Since your family wants to withdraw from the marriage, and we didn't break the contract first, then these things are taken for granted. It should and should be returned to us. You two should think about it carefully, and the request I said should not be too much, right?"

The Shen family couple are famous for being able to only go in and out. When they heard that the dowry was about to be refunded, the faces of the old couple in the Shen family were a little unsightly.However, he had already made mental preparations before coming here, and he did not turn his face after hearing Li Zian's words.

"Silver and bracelets can be refunded, but the food and rulers have already been used up after so long. Brother Li, do you think these are just forgivable?"

Li Zian also knew from the behavior of the two of them that everything would not be returned in full, but the things in their house were not blown by strong winds, so how could it be so easy to take advantage of others?

Seeing that his father wanted to let go, Li Zi'an hurried ahead of his father, and replied, "Isn't the old saying that there is no righteousness in buying and selling. What's more, we are also relatives. It doesn't matter if you use up something, you can directly convert it into cash." Silver is fine for us. But the price of things has risen so much now, we can’t let you suffer, right. I’ll give you a [-]% discount based on the current market price, do you and the elders think it’s acceptable?”

The old couple of the Shen family had long been trembling with anger at Li Zian's words, but the second brother of the Li family and Father Li, who were holding their breath, did not expect Li Zian to say such a thing, and couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in their hearts.

"Li Zian, don't deceive others too much!"

Shen Wang finally couldn't help but yelled at the case, pointed at Li Zi'an's nose and was about to start cursing, the old lady Li, sister-in-law Li and others who had been standing at the door had seen this and entered the room.

Although Sister-in-law Li is usually a bit generous, she never loses the chain at critical times.Seeing that Mrs. Shen was like this, she put her hips on her hips and retorted, "Who are you saying is bullying too much? Your son made a fuss at my son's wedding. We haven't said anything yet, but you say we are bullying too much! You have lived for this I have gone out to inquire about it for most of my life, whoever withdraws the marriage but does not return the bride price, why does your family dare to open this mouth with such a big face? You are not afraid of being laughed at if you say it."

Sister-in-law Li was very unhappy about the bride price earlier, but seeing that the Shen family still wanted to renege on the debt, she naturally refused.

When the second son of the Shen family came to make trouble earlier, Li Zi'an had spoken out.As long as the elders of the Shen family come in person, they agree to withdraw.Seeing the old couple coming to Lijia Village, some spectators followed behind to watch.

The sound insulation of the houses in the country is poor, and both of them have high voices. Those who watched the excitement outside the yard guessed what Mrs. Li said.When everyone heard that the Shen family planned to withdraw the marriage without returning the betrothal gift, they immediately pointed at the old couple of the Shen family and looked contemptuously, obviously not saying any good things in their mouths.

The old couple of the Shen family had only heard that the Li family was soft-spoken except for the eldest daughter-in-law. They thought that Li Zian, as a scholar, liked his daughter so much, so naturally they would not care too much about some things.Unexpectedly, this is not the case. They already knew that Mrs. Li's words were ugly, but they never expected that Li Zi'an would be so eloquent...

For a moment, Mrs. Shen didn't know how to answer the conversation, and Shen Wanmiao who was beside her was quick to admit her mistake with a smile.

"No way, the dowry will be fully refunded. It's just that my family's life is really tight, can I owe some time first?"

"Oh, look at what you said, it seems that other people's families drink and eat meat every day. These days, no one lives in a hurry. Back then, for my brother-in-law's bride price, our family almost wiped out all the money. No one added an inch."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Li squinted at the Shen family and his wife, and saw that they were both wearing brand new cotton clothes, and then said: "Look at your two elders, you are all new, you don't look like you are tight at home."

Shen Wang's face was flushed from being provoked a long time ago, and she wanted to open her mouth to scold, but her wife at the side grabbed her arm and held her down.

Li Zian saw that the two of them were almost run out by his sister-in-law, so he came up to smooth things over.

"Uncle Shen said it's not impossible to owe it first."

When Mrs. Li heard Li Zi'an's words, she became a little anxious and scolded him for turning his elbows outward.He opened his mouth to refute but was held back by Li Ersao.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, let's see what Zi'an has to say." Second Sister-in-Law whispered.

"Uncle Shen seems to be literate too. How about we set up a written evidence as proof? Ah, it's not that we don't believe in Uncle Shen's character, it's just that everyone can feel at ease by making a written evidence. If Uncle Shen doesn't know how to write, I will It is also possible to write a signature and press a fingerprint."

Li Wenming, who was waiting at the door, also came to his senses at this time, and quickly ran to Li Zian's room to bring a pen, ink, paper and inkstone and spread it on the table.

Shen Wanmiao, who knew he couldn't escape, gave Li Zian a hard look, so he picked up a pen and wrote an IOU and handed it to Li Zian.

Li Zian took it over with a smile and checked it. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with it, he folded it and handed it to Father Li.

At this moment, only the sound of a gong sounded outside, and everyone present remembered that today was the day to release the rankings, and hurriedly left the Shen family couple in the room and ran outside.

At this moment, several family members who lived at the entrance of the village had already run to the gate of Li's house, panting heavily and said to Father Li, "I've been hit, I've been hit!"
