In Madam Wang’s opinion, how could Su Yufang still have a reputation? In any case, she was already bad, so why should she care about this?
The Xu family had already decided. Who cared about anything else? She wouldn’t give them the money anyway.
“Mother, Luo Chuan’s Aunt won’t relent at all. How can this matter blow up? I beg you, I beg you.”
Madam Zhou was about to cry.
Madam Wang’s expression was still cold. When Madam Zhou came to hold her hand, she pushed her away.
“No, if I say no, it means no. Why do you care about this? You don’t have to care at all. Not to mention that the Luo family doesn’t know, even if they know, they can only admit defeat!”
Madam Wang said coldly. She did not care who Su Yufang married.
She did not believe in marrying an Elementary Scholar. Everything was fake. Only the money in her hands was real.
Even if the Xu family did not want Su Yufang anymore, she could not return this betrothal money.
Madam Zhou really hated her. She could not hide her hatred.
When Madam Wang saw Madam Zhou like this, she immediately felt provoked and slapped her. “Rotten sow, how dare you hate me? I think you’ve had too many good days. Are you itching for a beating?”
Madam Wang was very unhappy that Madam Zhou dared to question her decision.
She would not reflect on whether she had overdone it or not. Instead, she felt that her authority was not enough.
Madam Zhou was slapped. She lowered her head and covered her face. “Mother, don’t hit me. I was wrong.”
Madam Wang snorted. “It’s good that you know.”
Madam Zhou looked at Su Erlang. She hoped that he would say something.
Su Erlang avoided him. He did not have the final say, so why was she looking at him?
1
Su Erlang did not care who his daughter, Su Yufang, married. Anyway, it did not matter who she married, as long as the betrothal gift was high.
Madam Zhou was disheartened. She went out and said to Madam Liu, “Luo family. Let me tell you the truth. My Yufang has lost her purity. It’s impossible for her to marry Luo Chuan. When you gave this betrothal money, you gave it to my mother-in-law, Madam Wang. If you want to take it back now, look for her.”
After Madam Zhou finished speaking, she felt exhausted.
The last thing she wanted to say was actually spoken aloud.
She hoped more than anyone that Su Yufang could maintain a good reputation.
Although everyone in the village and the Xu family knew about this, they were related to the Xu family by marriage. The Xu family also wanted to save face, so they naturally did not want this matter to spread.
Everyone in the village did not have a good relationship, but they were from the same village after all. If there was no deep hatred, they would not spread it.
But the Luo family was different. They would become enemies if they broke off the engagement after knowing the truth.
After Madam Zhou finished speaking, she turned around and returned to her room. Perhaps Madam Wang would beat her up out of anger after the Luo family left. She would rather be beaten up like this. She could not resolve this matter.
There were so many people in the family, and everyone seemed to be dead. No one would speak up for her.
At this moment, Madam Zhou was very envious of Madam Zhao. She could not help but think that if Su Erlang was willing to resist her parents for her, she would follow Su Erlang wholeheartedly even if she had to eat grass and bark.
Unfortunately, Su Erlang would never do that.
When Madam Liu saw Madam Zhou leave, she immediately started to shout, “Oh my god, there’s no justice. This is too much. This is too much. The girl has lost her purity, and you want to break off the engagement, but you want to keep our betrothal money. How can there be such a thing in this world?”
“You old fart, get out here. Madam Wang, you rotten thing, rotten sow, rotten old thing. How dare you take my family’s money? I’ll report you and bring you to the officials…”
Madam Liu started to curse. The more she cursed, the worse it sounded.
Everyone in the room frowned.
Old Master Su was so angry that his beard trembled.
Madam Wang also stood up angrily. “This old b*tch dares to scold us. Where did that rotten Madam Zhou go? I’m going to tear her mouth apart.”

“Madam Li, are you dead? You didn’t even say anything after being scolded like this. Come, follow me out.”
Madam Wang knew that she was old and was afraid that she would not be Madam Liu’s match in a fight, so she immediately shouted at Madam Li.
Madam Li did not want to help. It was not her daughter. What did it have to do with her?
However, due to Madam Wang’s pressure, Madam Li had no choice but to go out. When she went out, she also shouted at her daughter-in-law, “What are you waiting for? You’re married to my son, so you’re also part of the Su family. If she scolds the Su family, she’s scolding you. Others are already stepping on your head. Are you all dead?”
The family got up and went out, but the men were clearly not prepared to interfere.
As soon as Madam Wang came out and was about to scold her, Madam Liu spat on her. Madam Liu tore her face apart. “Old witch, I’m here to see how thick your skin is. Is it even thicker than the city wall? Otherwise, how could you do such a thing?”
Madam Wang’s aura immediately weakened. She could not defeat Madam Liu.
She felt a burning pain on her face. When she finally opened her eyes, Madam Liu was about to slap her again. Madam Wang immediately said to Madam Li and her granddaughter-in-law, “Are you dead? I’ll divorce whoever stands there…”
Madam Li and her granddaughter-in-law hurriedly went forward to help.
Madam Li did not expect Madam Liu to be so fierce. When she fought, her methods were ruthless, and she pinched furiously.
Her granddaughter-in-law was still a young lady in her teens. She had never seen the world and was no match for Madam Liu.
She stood far away with tears in her eyes.
Madam Liu was strong, so it was not a problem for her to fight a few of them alone. She dealt with Madam Wang and ignored her after a while. She focused on dealing with Madam Li. Madam Li was also ruthless, but she was not as strong as Madam Liu.

When Old Master Wang was called over by Luo Chuan, he saw such a farce. Old Master Wang sank his anger into his dantian and shouted, “Stop!”
“What are you guys doing? Stop, stop. What are you waiting for? Go forward and pull them away. Su family, quickly pull your mother away.”
Old Master Wang hurriedly shouted. He really wanted to vomit. Why was this Su family so good at finding trouble? He was still a little confused that Luo Chuan had come to look for him. When he heard that it was the Su family, he didn’t want to come. However, he was the village chief and had no choice but to come.
The Su family refused to return the betrothal money. Old Master Wang thought about it carefully and knew that the Su family must have been greedy.
The Su family hurriedly pulled Madam Li away. Luo Chuan also went forward to pull Madam Liu. Madam Liu even took the opportunity to pinch Madam Li and pull her hair.
Madam Li cried out in pain.
After separating them, Old Master Wang looked at Madam Wang and said angrily, “What exactly is your family trying to do? You’ve embarrassed the village! You have to be greedy for all kinds of money. Aren’t you afraid that you’ll die from overeating?”

Madam Wang was really stupid.
Old Master Su was the same. He was blinded by greed, as if it had nothing to do with him if he didn’t interfere.
When Old Master Wang shouted like this, Madam Wang immediately felt her face burn. She did not know if it was from pain or embarrassment.
Old Master Wang looked around and didn’t see Old Master Su. He immediately shouted angrily, “Fourth Dog Su, are you dead? If this matter goes to the officials, do you think you’ll have the advantage? Let me tell you, if you make a big fuss and ruin the village’s reputation, I’ll chase your entire family out.”
He was furious. This family of idiots.
