Shi Qingluo sat down leisurely.

After looking at Mrs. Niu Shi, she said: “I’m thirsty, go and get me a cup of tea.”

Mrs. Niu wanted to give this increasingly arrogant daughter a slap in the face. Whose daughter dares to ask her mother to her serve tea or pour her water?

It was a pity that she didn’t dare. After refuting several times before, she was whipped by the dead girl, and her whole body was burning in pain.

“Drink it!” After she finished brewing, she placed the teacup heavily on the table, while wishing it choke her to death.

Old Man Song looked at it with pain. This was the tea he hid and didn’t dare to drink, but all of it has entered the mouth of this evil person these days. He was so heartbroken.

Shi Qingluo picked up the tea and took a sip, then said disgustedly: “The quality of this tea is poor, but fortunately, I don’t need to drink it anymore.”

She was influenced by tea culture by her grandfather in modern times and fell in love with drinking tea.

This tea, even if it was kept in the past, she would not take a look at it, but now she can only let it go.

After earning money, she has to buy some good tea.

Old Man Shi: “… …”

The tea he was reluctant to part with was almost finished by her, but she had the nerve to dislike it so much.

He continued to suppress his anger, “You just said that you are going to get married, what do you mean?”

Shi Qingluo replied: “I’ve fallen in love with him, so I’ve talked with his family. I’ll marry the day after tomorrow.”

“Pfft!” At that time, the old man couldn’t hold back the water he had just drank.

The others were also stunned.

Shi Laosan thought he heard it wrong, “What did you say? Marry the day after tomorrow?”

Old Lady Shi and Mrs. Niu asked in unison: “Which family?”

Shi Qingluo said truthfully: “Xiao Xiucai’s home in Xiaxi Village next door.”

Mrs. Niu asked in surprise, “What? You don’t want to marry Xiao Xiucai, do you?”

She usually likes to chat outside, so she knows the situation at Xiao Xiucai’s house.

Shi Qinglou gave her a blank look, “That’s right! If I don’t marry him, you think I’ll marry his younger brother?”

Mrs. Niu asked: “Do you know that Xiao Xiucai is in a coma, and you will probably be a widow if you marry him? Do you know that their family has no money to buy medicine? Do you know that he has broken ties?

He doesn’t want to follow his powerful general father but followed his poor mother who was divorced instead. In her opinion, Xiao Xiucai was a fool.

Shi Qinglou nodded, “Of course I know, I just wanted to marry him because of his family’s situation.”

She scanned the Shi Family and said bluntly: “Even if I become a widow after marrying him, it’s more comfortable than living with you.”

Shi Family: “… …”

Old Lady Shi said with a sullen face: “Are you crazy? If the recent incidents did not happen to the Xiao family, it is indeed a good family, but now it is a pit of fire.”

Shi Qinglou raised an eyebrow: “No matter how hot the fire pit is, there is a much bigger pit in the Shi Family, right?”

“The reason why you say that, is because their family can’t afford the dowry, isn’t it?” She also understands the character of the Shi Family.

Hearing this, Old Lady Shi’s face froze, and she sneered: “Our family has raised you so much, shouldn’t we accept a dowry gift when we marry you?”

Whether it was a hot pit or not, she doesn’t care whether the dead girl jump or not.

She even wished it was a big fire pit, but the key point was that this big fire pit was worth the money, just like the Wu Family.

Mrs. Niu also couldn’t hold back and echoed, “That’s right, no matter what, if the Xiao Family wants to marry you, they must offer 10 taels of silver as a dowry gift.”

She wanted to say one hundred taels, but the Xiao family couldn’t take it out.

When she thought of a hundred taels flying away like that, her heart ached again.

Others were in a similar mood.

Old Lady Shi agreed and said: “Yes if you don’t have any money, let their family borrow it.”

Shi Qingluo looked at them with a half-smile, “You want 10 taels of silver? It’s fine, but I don’t know if you have that kind of money.”

Shi Family: “… …”

Is this human language?

Mrs. Niu was so angry that her heart ached, “Don’t forget, you were raised by us.”

Shi Qingluo sneered, “I started working at the age of three, and was sent to a Taoist Temple at the age of five. You still receive my wages every month, so are you sure you raise me, or I raised you?”

“Don’t be shameless.”

Her face turned cold in an instant, “There is not a penny for the bride price, and you have to pay the compensation you owe me.”

Mrs. Niu looked like she was crazy as she asked loudly: “What? Not only we won’t receive the bride price, but we have to compensate you?”

Shi Qingluo grabbed the cane that was deliberately placed under the table before, and slammed it over: “Shouldn’t I be compensated?”

“My blood has been sucked by you all these years.”

Mrs. Niu was caught off guard and jumped up, “Ah!”

She wanted to sit on the ground and yell, but when she saw Shi Qingluo’s cold eyes, she held them back.

How did she give birth to such a rebellious and unfilial obstacle?

Old Lady Shi hurriedly said: “No, the family’s money has long been spent, and your fourth uncle will not have enough money to go to the scholar exam next year.”

Shi Qingluo knew that the money in the family would be used when her Fourth Uncle took the exam.

The old lady valued money more than her life, so it was unlikely that she would take it out.

She had already thought about it, “Then use grain as compensation. Give me a hundred catties of coarse grain, and three bags of soybeans and mung beans in the kitchen. I want them all.”

This was an acceptable range for extreme pain.

She knows from memory that this dynasty didn’t have potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn.

Coarse grains were mainly buckwheat, sorghum, and beans.

The Xiao family was short of food now. She doesn’t want to marry and eat wild vegetables every day. If she eats too much, she will get heartburn.

As for soybeans and mung beans, they were very useful.

“No!” Old Lady Shi and several daughters-in-law denied it sharply at the same time.

Old Man Shi also showed disapproval.

Not only did they not receive the bride price, but she also asked them to give them food. What does this dead girl think?

Shi Qingluo knew they would react like this.

She took a sip of tea slowly, “I’m not asking for your opinions, but telling you to get them ready.”

“If you don’t like it, it’s okay.”

“Then I won’t marry, I’ll stay at home and get married until the government comes.”

“Eggs, meat, and white rice must be eaten every day. Otherwise, if I’m not happy, I might not be able to resist sending you guys down there.”

She looked like she was taking special care of them: “Do you want to be blown to death, sliced to death, or smoked to death? You can choose one.”

The Shi Family: “… …”

A mouthful of blood stuck in their chests.

Ah, how could they have such an incompetent evil in the family?

Old Man Shi said with a dark face: “Which girl in our village is married like this?”

Shi Qingluo said in a foolish tone: “So let me set a precedent.”

The Shi Family: “… …”

Why don’t you die first?

In the end, due to Shi Qingluo’s ferocious threats, and the fact that the Shi Family couldn’t stand her anymore.

They could only grit their teeth and agree, wishing they could send her to the Xiao Family’s house tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Kong and the patriarch’s wife went to the Shi Family to propose marriage.

Mrs. Kong still brought meat and sugar.

The Shi Family also had a reputation for not being easy to mess with in Shangxi Village, mainly because the eldest son and his wife were fierce and aggressive.

That’s why, Mrs. Kong and the patriarch’s wife thought that it would be difficult to propose marriage. The patriarch’s wife said it was better to prepare well so that they can deal with the other party if they find fault.

Who knew that although the Shi Family didn’t look very happy, they were surprisingly easy to talk to?

There was even a feeling of wanting to let them take Shi Qingluo away today.

In the end, they agreed to get married tomorrow, and not only would they not ask for the bride price, but they would also give a few bags of food as a dowry.

This made Mrs. Kong and the patriarch’s wife felt dizzy after being sent out as if they were dreaming.
