He Tongsheng was so angry that he fell back!
From childhood to adulthood, he had always been the smartest one in the village.
How could he ever be oppressed and humiliated like this?
Was this still the fatty of the Su family who could only stab people with a knife?
When did she become so eloquent?
The two classmates and the surrounding people also gathered around.
Su Xiaoxiao’s words were sharp and clear.
Even if they didn’t know it beforehand, now they would understand their previous story.
So the story is the scholar was fooled by the matchmaker, then he regretted the marriage on the wedding day, and now he didn’t want to return the bride price.
“Miss, how much money does he owe you for the bride price?”
“20 taels”
There was a sound of gasping air all around!
It was only 2 taels silver to marry a wife.
Although a son-in-law was a little more expensive, it wouldn’t exceed 6 taels.
Considering that he was a scholar and had a good-looking appearance, at the most it would be 10 taels, it shouldn’t be more than that.
However——
People’s eyes fell on Su Xiaoxiao’s fat body, and they probably understood why the bride price was so high.
With this kind of appearance in the countryside…… indeed no one would want her.
“Su Pangya! You don’t even look at your own virtues!” He Tongsheng said angrily.
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “What kind of virtue do I have, preventing you from owning my family’s bride price?”
The crowd couldn’t help but nodding secretly.
This fat girl’s logic was excellent.
All along, she hadn’t been led by the scholar’s control.
She talked about things, which were based on the facts, she also had good reason and evidence.
On the contrary, the scholar seemed to have been provoked into a mess, and he even actually insulted a little girl in the middle of the street.
The IQ and style of the two people, who were good and bad, were highly different.
At this moment, even the two classmates could not help frowning at He Tongsheng.
There were more and more strange eyes around.
He Tongsheng got angry and said, “Ma..
Ma..
Maybe you were in collusion with the matchmaker, together to deceive me! Yes! It must be like this!”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded, “In that case, we will meet in the court.”
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the court.
If He Tongsheng thought she was threatening him.
Then, he guessed right.
There was a man of unknown origin at home.
How could it be possible for her to let the people in the court notice the Su Family before she knew the true identity of that person?
But judging from the conversation just now, He Tongsheng did not know that she already had a husband.
Otherwise, with his face, he would have to scold her for being shameless.
He Tongsheng was a scholar.
If he was stained by this incident, then he was very likely to lose the chance to get an official position.
“Stop!”
He Tongsheng threatened, “Your Su Family has tyrannized the village.
How many shameful things have you done? After going to the court, do you really think that you’re able to go out?
Su Xiaoxiao ignored him.
In psychological battle, this stupid scholar was not enough to cause a bad luck for her.
Sure enough, when she came to the corner, He Tongsheng gritted his teeth and chased after her.
“Su Pangya!”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled: “Have you decided to pay back the money?”
The person was still the same person.
But somehow, this smile made He Tongsheng in a trance for a while, and gave out the illusion of Su Pangya being charming and fascinating.
He turned his face and said in a charitable tone, “I can refund half of the money back to you.
Then let this matter be over.”
“You dropped something.” Su Xiaoxiao looked at his feet.
“What?” He looked down searching.
“Your face.”
He Tongsheng : “……”
“Mr.
Officer.” Su Xiaoxiao walked in the direction of a bailiff who was patrolling the opposite wine shop.”
-The bailiff ; the officer who is responsible for arresting criminals, calling defendants and witnesses, and investigating criminal evidence (in Imperial China).
He Tongsheng’s eyebrows frowned: “Ten, fifteen taels! Fifteen taels is enough, right?”
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t seem to hear it and continued to walk towards the bailiff.
“18 taels!”
Su Xiaoxiao arrived at the bailiff’s side.
