The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 789 Compromise (2)

The pill was taken smoothly by the spiritual spring water. After a moment passed, Mo Yan felt Tietou's pulse again and found that the pulse was more stable. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from her forehead and asked, "Aunt Wu, Tie Tou" How could Brother Tou become like this?"

Wu's face was filled with grief when she heard this, and the tears she had just stopped flowing down again: "It's my fault, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have hit him so hard, and I shouldn't have forced him to break off the relationship with that girl... It's all my fault, it's all my fault. It’s my fault…”

In Wu's intermittent words, Mo Yan understood why Tietou became like this. She was very upset for a moment and blamed herself for not taking action in time to resolve the conflict between their mother and son. Otherwise, this incident might not have happened today. .

It turned out that Mrs. Wu had not had a good night's sleep ever since she found out that her son had fallen in love with a good-natured kiln girl and refused to look back. In addition to going out to the stall every day, he would ask the matchmaker to find a suitable girl.

The conditions of the Wu family are here. There are many suitable girls, but Tietou is not willing at all. Just a few days ago, Mrs. Wu was very satisfied with a girl from a neighboring village and decided to settle the marriage without telling Tietou. So I spent twenty taels of silver to buy a pair of gold bracelets as tokens and sent them to the woman's family. I just waited for a good and auspicious day to make the decision.

Unexpectedly, Tietou found out about this matter and went to the girl's house overnight. He only said that he had someone he liked and did not dare to delay the girl and asked her to find another husband. The girl was so angry that she gave up the token on the spot. It hit Tietou, and the sharp corners of the wooden box made Tietou's forehead bleed.

The woman’s family was very angry and thought that the Wu family was bullying others. The next day, they found a matchmaker and asked the Wu family for an explanation. It wasn't until she came back from the stall that Wu knew what Tietou had done.

 Wu was furious and very disappointed with what Tietou had done. Tietou would only come back at night, so she could only suppress her anger and wait.

This day happened to be New Year's Eve. Tietou came back from the shop an hour early. He thought there would be a table of good food, but as soon as he entered the house, Wu made Tietou kneel in the hall without saying a word. Early tomorrow morning, I will go with her to a neighboring village to apologize to the woman and then finalize the marriage.

Tietou only had Liu Qingqing in his heart, and had never thought of marrying anyone other than her. He could not do any of the two things Wu proposed, so he firmly rejected Wu's proposal.

Seeing Tietou being so stubborn, Wu became furious and took action again. Soon, there was not a single good piece of Tietou's back, and all the members of the Wu family were beaten with blood, but they gritted their teeth and allowed Wu to beat and scold him, but refused to let go.

Da Nier couldn't stand it anymore, and was about to secretly go to Mo's house to ask Mo Yan for help, but Wu stopped her and drove the three of them to their respective rooms. Seeing that Tietou still refused to admit his mistake, he lost his mind for a moment and actually broke the wooden stick as thick as his wrist.

However, the physical pain could not make Tietou change his mind and give in to his mother's opinion.

Wu was so angry that she rushed to the kitchen, held a kitchen knife to her neck, and threatened Tietou with her own life.

Tietou Chunxiao, no matter how much he liked Liu Qingqing, he would not force his own mother to die. His face was full of pain, and he finally agreed to his mother's request and would not go to Liu Qingqing again and cut off all contact with her.

Mrs. Wu thought her son had "recovered from his lost way" and was very happy. After comforting him, she let him go back to his room to rest. Little did they know that early this morning, mother and daughter had prepared things and were about to go out to the stall. Tietou, who usually got up earlier than them, kept the door tightly closed.

Wu knew how heavy the attack was last night and sensed something was wrong. She hurriedly knocked on the door, but received no response. In desperation, she broke open the window and climbed into Tietou's room, where she saw the unconscious Tietou and blood stains all over the bed...
