The Valiant Farmgirl's Blackhearted Husband Wants a Hug

121 Chapter 121: Uncompassionate

Qin Xiaoyao chuckled.

“You’ll have to talk to the Wang family about that,” she said indifferently.

Did they get the wrong person? She had only agreed to buy the indenture. Anything else had nothing to do with her.

Zhang Mazi was stunned. He felt like he had been checkmated by Qin Xiaoyao.

!!

However, what she said made sense. Therefore, even though he was a little upset, he didn’t continue to pester Qin Xiaoyao. Instead, he turned to look at the Wang family.

“If Madam Qian and Wang Laoshuan had not agreed to allow Wang Xiaomei to marry into my family, my family would not have held this banquet. Now that the marriage is canceled, you have to pay for the banquet!” Knowing that Wang Laoshuan could not make the decision, Zhang Mazi looked directly at Wang Dashan.

Wang Dashan was furious. He didn’t want to pay the money.

However, he couldn’t think of anything to refute him.

Helplessly, he could only look at the village chief. He hoped that the village chief could help his family solve this problem.

The village chief frowned and spoke quickly.

“Although Wang Laoshuan and Madam Qian knew about this beforehand, Wang Dashan did not. No one in our Brook Falls Village knows about it.”

“The loss caused by the wedding banquet is indeed related to the Wang family, but it’s not like your Zhang family is completely free of responsibility.”

“Moreover, all the items at the banquet were being used by your Zhang family. The Wang family didn’t get a single share. It’s unreasonable for the Wang family to bear all the responsibility.”

Zhang Mazi didn’t reply.

He knew in his heart that it was impossible for him to force the Wang family to bear the full cost.

Now, Village Chief Li’s intention was to let the Wang family bear a part of the responsibility, and he was agreeable.

It was true that he had suffered some losses in this mess today.

However, the Wang family divorced Madam Qian because of this matter, which could be considered their retribution. Therefore, it was better to end this matter here.

“How about this? The Wang family will compensate 200 copper coins for the banquet, and we can close this matter,” the village chief said after some thought.

Zhang Mazi’s expression changed drastically.

“No way! At least one tael of silver! My family spent three taels on the banquet!” In truth, it was only a little over two taels, but at this moment, of course he had to put in a higher price.

When Wang Dashan heard this, he was about to step forward, but was pulled back by Wang Xiaomei.

The village chief said sternly and righteously.

“I’ll only offer 200 copper coins as an apology. What does your family holding a banquet have to do with the Wang family?”

“Wang Laoshuan and Madam Qian did agree to this marriage, but they didn’t ask your family to make it such a grand affair, right? You can’t blame this on the Wang family.”

“That’s right. They are just selling their daughter. They didn’t ask for a grand wedding…” one of the villagers said.

“You wanted to make yourself look good. Who can you blame?”

“He just wants to show off. To show off that he got a capable wife for his retarded son…”

The villagers started pointing and criticizing Zhang Mazi.

Zhang Mazi was extremely annoyed when he heard them.

He knew that the village chief was biased towards his own village, and there would be no change in the outcome even if he continued to argue, so he finally agreed angrily.

“Fine! Then 200 copper coins it is. Give me the money and we’ll leave at once!”

Wang Dashan finally heaved a sigh of relief.

However, immediately after, he became nervous again.

His family did not even have any money, much less 200 copper coins.

At the thought of this, Wang Dashan could not help but look at Qin Xiaoyao.

Qin Xiaoyao simply ignored him and pretended she did not see.

She had no interest in lending money to the Wang family.

The village chief also noticed this situation.

He sighed and said to his youngest son, “Go. Go home and look for your mother to get 200 copper coins.”

“Yes!” The youngest son glanced at Wang Dashan and left in a hurry.

“Thank you, Uncle Village Chief!” Wang Dashan quickly went forward to thank him.

“Enough!” The village chief waved his hand. “This matter is considered closed. Live well in the future.” As he spoke, he looked at Wang Laoshuan.

“Yes!” Wang Laoshuan and his son quickly replied.

Seeing that the money issue was settled, Zhang Mazi finally agreed to the deal with Qin Xiaoyao.

Qin Xiaoyao then went home to get the silver.

After a while, she returned with the silver and gave it to Zhang Mazi, whereupon she received Wang Xiaomei’s indenture.

Zhang Mazi then accepted another 200 copper coins from the village chief before leaving with his men.

This farce finally came to a close.

The villagers consoled Wang Dashan and Wang Xiaomei and gradually dispersed.

Qin Xiaoyao and the others were the last ones left.

“Take these two days to pack up. We’ll move first thing in the morning the day after. When the time comes, you’ll come with us.” Qin Xiaoyao said to Wang Xiaomei.

“Okay!” Wang Xiaomei quickly nodded.

Wang Dashan looked at Qin Xiaoyao anxiously.

...

“I… I’ll come and help out!” he said.

Qin Xiaoyao glanced at Wang Dashan. She knew that he was trying to ascertain where they were moving to.

She didn’t refuse and nodded.

“Alright,” she said.

After that, Qin Xiaoyao listened to her mother-in-law and Big Girl Li comfort Wang Xiaomei for a while before bringing them back to the Song family’s residence.

It was only during dinner that Song Que found out that his family had bought a person.

Song Que did not say anything about this at that time.

However, after Qin Xiaoyao finished washing up and went to bed, Song Que spoke up.

“It’s not a good thing to have another person in the house.”

Qin Xiaoyao was stunned.

“It is indeed a little inconvenient. But I’m still lacking a helper in my business. Furthermore, if Xiaomei comes to our home, she can help Mother and Yun’er with some chores.”

...

Song Que remained silent.

“Then we have to go to the government office to file an application. And don’t let her come into contact with the Wang family so often,” he added after a moment.

Qin Xiaoyao was a little shocked to hear this.

It turned out that she was not the only one who was ‘uncompassionate’. Her husband was even more ‘ uncompassionate’ than her.

“Alright,” Qin Xiaoyao replied.

Only then did Song Que relax a little.

After lying down, he said, “Let’s continue with ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms’.”

Qin Xiaoyao said with a smile, “Alright.”

She realized that her attractive husband’s fondness for ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms’ far exceeded that of ‘Journey to the West.’

Previously, when she told him the tale of ‘Journey to the West’, there were times when he didn’t want to listen to it.

However, ever since he started listening to ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms’, she had never stopped telling the tale every night.

Finally, it was the day to move.

Early in the morning, Liu Daniu and Big Girl Li pushed the handcart to the Song family to help.

Wang Dashan had also arrived at the Song family’s residence early in the morning with Wang Laoshuan and Wang Xiaomei.

Qin Xiaoyao loaded the goods that were to be delivered to town onto her handcart, and the other two handcarts were filled with the things they needed to move to their new home.

Coupled with the accompanying people carrying more stuff on their backs or shoulders, they eventually managed to carry all the things they wanted to bring to their new home.

Just like that, this group of people left the village in a grand manner.

Many people saw their procession and congratulated the Song family. Some even asked for the Song family’s new address.

Qin Xiaoyao didn’t hide anything. She told them the new address and even politely invited the villagers to her house.

Of course, everyone only listened to her invitation. No one would really be so thick-skinned as to go to their new house to look for them.

In Brook Falls Village, the topic that the villagers talked about most often was the Song family.

All the villagers were full of envy…

At the town gate, Qin Xiaoyao paid a big sum of entrance fees before leading everyone in.

After entering the town, Qin Xiaoyao had to deliver the goods to Fortune Mansion and Fortune Restaurant, so Song Que gave the directions and led everyone to their new home.

When they entered the courtyard of the Song family’s new home, Liu Daniu and the Wang family were all shocked.

Liu Daniu was still not too bad. Even though it was his first time here, he had already heard Big Girl Li’s description and was mentally prepared. He already knew that the Song family’s new courtyard dwelling was huge.

The Wang family members however, were genuinely shocked into speechlessness.
