Chapter 112： Chujiacun

The two were fighting and fighting, and the elder of the Chu family came over, picked up Chu Man and scolded: "Can you calm down?"

If she is allowed to run wild again, the Chu family may completely fall out with the Jiang family.

Let alone the two families have reconciled, they are lucky not to become enemies.

Chu Man couldn't help but started crying again, "Those are mine! They are all mine! I want to take them all away!"

The elder raised his hand and gave her a hard slap on the ear, "You don't need to bring anything else! Come back with us now!"

Chu Man was beaten again. The one who beat her was her fourth uncle, the most severe person in the Chu family. She was so frightened that she shrank like a quail and did not dare to resist. She allowed her uncle to drag her arm away.

“My dear father-in-law, I will take this evil obstacle back today, and I will definitely come to apologize to him someday.” Chu Taigong cupped his fists and handed over his hands to Jiang Dalang, and took Chu Man to the carriage.

Horses are rare in rural areas, and few can afford them.

Mr. Chu Taigong was silent all the way, not even looking at his grandniece huddled in the corner of the carriage. He just closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Chujia Village is about ten miles away from Chen Village. The carriage drove quickly and it didn’t take long to arrive.

Like Chen Village, the original Chujia Village was divided into two villages, Chujia Village and Chushan Village, as the population increased.

However, there are very few outside households in these two villages, and those who settled here are basically the descendants of the Chu family with the surname Chu.

The carriage came directly to the door of Chu Cun's house. The man driving the carriage stopped the horse first, jumped off the carriage and helped Grandpa Chu out of the carriage. He also helped the other two uncles out of the carriage, and then took Chu Man and dragged her down without caring. She fell to the ground and drove the carriage away.

The first one to run out was Chu Man's mother-in-law, Sun. When she saw her daughter falling to the ground, she quickly rushed over to help her, "My son, does it hurt from the fall?"

Chu Man hugged her mother and cried loudly: "Mom, the Jiang family is bullying me. Wow, wow, wow, they even beat me."

"What? They beat you?" Mrs. Sun was heartbroken when she heard this. She picked up her daughter and shouted loudly: "The Jiang family dare to come and complain first. Go home and tell your father!"

The two women helped each other and walked into the courtyard. They saw Tai Zheng standing in the courtyard with his hands behind his hands, scolding Chu Cunzheng.

"My good child has been spoiled by you to the point of being spoiled. I see you are getting more and more dizzy! Today I have brought Man Niang back. From now on, her marriage to the Jiang family will be cancelled. I will choose a good character from the clan as a gift. Go and marry the Jiang family’s children.”

Cha Taigong is also the clan leader of the entire Chu family. No one dares to refute what he says.

Chu Cunzheng stopped when he heard this and said anxiously: "Uncle, this is not appropriate. If you do this, what will happen to Man Niang in the future?"

Cha Taigong: "Man Niang is only sixteen years old. She will find a family to marry in two years. As for the Jiang family, it is good that they did not send Man Niang to the official position."

"No, no, no!" Chu Cunzheng just shook his head, "It's just a fight between children. Madam Man is young and doesn't have a serious hand. Why does it end up like this?"

An uncle shouted: "Shut up! The Jiang family's child is unconscious. She must have suffered a serious brain injury. She may be gone at some time. How dare you say such a thing? Aren't you afraid that the Jiang family will make your daughter pay for her life?" ?"

Chu Cunzheng opened his mouth in shock.

Mrs. Sun, who was about to make a fuss, also stopped and quietly pulled her daughter into the house.

“Man’er, tell me, what’s going on? Why did you smash that Jiang Cheng like that?” asked Sun in a low voice.

Chu Man pouted and muttered: "He is so disgusting, he actually took off my clothes..."

Mrs. Sun's face turned dark, "Didn't my mother tell you well at home? This man and woman are going to consummate their marriage on the night of their marriage. You... you... ugh."

Chu Man snorted, "I don't want to consummate the marriage with him!"

Sun Shi sighed.

It's too late to say anything now.

If you retire, you will retreat. In case the Jiang family is really dead, her girlfriend happens to pull out, and she does not have to take a widow.

It’s a pity that the eighty taels of betrothal gift will probably not be kept. Since the Grand Duke said that he would choose a new girl to send to her, the betrothal gifts must be given to that family.

In the yard, the Chu clan leader scolded his nephew, and then he returned home with his two uncles and brothers to talk.

Took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then asked his two cousins: "Do you have any candidates for the Jiang family?"

Both men shook their heads.

Chief Chu: "Regardless of family background and only looking at the character of the children, can't you pick out one of them? Second brother, don't you have any in your village?"

The second uncle and the Chu clan leader are also cousins. They were separated from the family when they were young, and unfortunately they were assigned to Chushan Village.

However, because he and his fourth brother are older, they have now become the elders of the clan. Any major events that happen in the clan are always discussed by him, the fourth brother, and the clan leader.

"Yes, there is, but how can I lift it?" said the old man from the second clan: "This is such a good girl, how can I push her into a pit of fire?"

“Who is the fire pit?” Chief Chu said dissatisfied: “Second brother, you are too short-sighted!”

The two clansmen grunted and drank tea by themselves.

He and the fourth child did not agree with choosing another girl from the Chu family to send over, but the eldest brother of the clan insisted on having his own way.

Clan Chu said angrily: "Who am I doing this for? You all think I'm old and confused, right?"

He stretched out his palm like a dry tree bark and patted the table, "No wonder our Chu family has become worse with each generation. Even you two are dizzy!"

The elder of the four clans couldn't help but say: "Brother, you can't say that. Even if we want to have a good relationship with the Jiang family and learn to grow mushrooms, there is no need to bury a girl from the Chu family."

“What kind of funeral? The descendants of the Jiang family are prosperous and their fortunes are at their peak. If our children from the Chu family marry, we will enjoy happiness for the rest of our lives!”

Clan Chief Chu stopped the urge to slap people and lectured them word for word.

“I don’t care what you think, you must choose a special girl doll for me today, and I will send it to the Jiang family tomorrow!”

As he said that, Patriarch Chu kicked him out unceremoniously: "You two, stop doing enema here and go back to make preparations! If it doesn't work out, your grandchildren's admission to school next year will be postponed."

The two clan elders were kicked out by the old clan leader. They looked at each other and sighed quietly.

“Second brother, I think the daughter of the honest family in your village is pretty good. She must be fifteen or sixteen years old this year, so why not just have her.” The elder of the four tribes said slowly.

The elder of the second clan shook his head: "No, that child has red spots on his forehead. When the clan leader sees it, he will definitely scold us for not being able to do things. Besides, how can the Jiang family want a disfigured person? Isn't that just a slap in the face?"

The elder of the four tribes said: "Although that girl has a red spot on her forehead, you can't see it even if you cover it with her hair. Besides, except for this, that child is outstanding in everything. I think she is the most suitable. Otherwise, let's go to Chu now." Let the honest family inquire?"

“Okay.” That’s all.

The second clan elder sighed and walked towards Chushan Village with the fourth elder.

Chushan Village is right next to Chujia Village, separated by a dirt road.

The two old men arrived at Chu Laoshi's house not long after.

Three dilapidated thatched huts and a small kitchen, making him as poor as most households in the village.

It’s spring planting time now, and Chu Laoshi doesn’t seem to be at home.

However, his youngest child was squatting in front of the house playing with ants.

“Qing’er, where is your father?” The elder from the second clan walked over and asked.
