Chapter 215 There’s a fight
Yun Xi was speechless. This Lu Peixiu was even more gossipy than herself.
She is quite outgoing. Not only can she listen to gossips from people she doesn't know, but she can also strike up a conversation with them. Only Lu Peixiu can do that.
Pushing the head back, Yun Xi gave Aunt Bao a dry laugh.
"This is Miss Lu, a rich girl from the city. She is going to stay in the village for a while to experience life there."
The reason why Yun Xi did not completely conceal her identity and told everyone that Lu Peixiu was the eldest lady in the city was that she wanted the villagers to have a sense of propriety when they saw her, be polite, and not offend her easily.
This person is unruly and willful, and she might whip you if things go wrong. If you provoke her, no matter whether you are right or wrong, the villagers will suffer in the end.
Aunt Bao suddenly realized and greeted with a smile, "Hello, Miss Lu."
I thought they came here to experience life, but in fact, it was just city people who had nothing to do and came to the village to find some hardship.
This guy is really weird. He has too many good days and now he just wants to mess around.
Lv Peixiu also responded, "Hello, Aunt Bao."
I just heard Yun Xi shout like that, so it must be right to shout along.
Then he urged, "Tell me quickly, why didn't the girl you liked end up like that?"
Aunt Bao didn't expect that the girl from this wealthy family would also be curious about the affairs of their peasant family. She smiled awkwardly and continued, "The girl looks good, but her family is not good. Her parents are not kind."
"What do you say?"
Now Lu Peixiu completely replaced Yun Xi and cooperated in the questioning.
"When the family saw that I was satisfied with the girl, they asked for a huge amount of money, including 100 taels of silver as a betrothal gift, two pieces of cloth, kilograms of grain, and half a pig. My God, this is not marrying off a daughter, this is selling a daughter. If I go to a human trafficker to buy a girl, I can only get taels of silver at most, and I can even pick a good one."
Lu Peixiu thought, 20 taels of silver is enough to marry a wife, this is too cost-effective. Even if you add two pieces of cloth, 100 kilograms of grain, and half a pig, it won't cost much more.
But this woman actually thinks it's too expensive. She's too stingy.
"Auntie Bao, you are marrying a wife, not buying a maid. How can you compare with the servants sold by human traffickers? They only ask for 20 taels of betrothal gifts, plus a few things. It's a good deal to marry this wife."
She had seen that many families spent hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver on betrothal gifts when marrying a daughter-in-law, so twenty taels was not too cheap.
Aunt Bao was stunned. What kind of nonsense is this?
In their village, ten taels of silver is considered too expensive to marry a wife, so twenty taels is still a good deal.
What a good deal!
When you gossip, you can only continue the conversation if others agree with you. If you start to refute others right away, no one will be happy.
Aunt Bao suddenly lost interest in continuing the conversation and her face drooped.
"Is this a good deal? I can't afford such an expensive wife."
"If you don't even want to pay this little money, your son will be a bachelor forever."
Aunt Bao was angry. Not only did she say it was a good deal, but she also said her son was still single. Isn't that a curse?
She couldn't afford to offend a rich lady, so she would have let it go at other times. But now that Yunxi was present, Aunt Bao was not afraid and asked directly:
"Hey, how can you say that? Why is my son destined to be a bachelor? With a betrothal gift of 20 taels, where can I find a wife? Why are you cursing my son like this?"
Lu Peixiu was confused. "When did I curse your son? I'm just stating the truth. If he's not willing to spend 20 taels to marry a wife, how can he possibly get one? If he can't get one, then he'll be single for life, right?"
"You'll be single your whole life."
"Your son will be single all his life."
"You'll be single your whole life."
"Your son."
"you."
"Your son."
"you."
……
Yun Xi was confused. Why did these two people quarrel over a disagreement? Lu Peixiu's mouth was really offensive.
Bao Pi, who was standing by, looked anxious as he saw his mother arguing with the young lady from the city becoming more and more excited.
"Mom, stop arguing..."
Aunt Bao was so angry that she said, "Son, this girl is so vicious. She cursed you to be single for the rest of your life and to have no children or grandchildren."
Lu Peixiu was dumbfounded, "When did I curse him to have no descendants?"
Aunt Bao glared at her, "You said my son will be a bachelor for the rest of his life. If he can't get married, he can't carry on the family line. If he can't carry on the family line, he will have no descendants, right? How can you be so vicious, a girl? And you're a daughter of a wealthy family in the city, bah, bullshit."
"Hey, why are you still cursing? I tell you, if you weren't old, I would have taken action a long time ago. It's really hard to reason with an ignorant woman like you."
When Aunt Bao heard that the girl still wanted to hit someone, she became furious.
He walked forward with his chest puffed out and began to rub against Lu Peixiu, "Come on, do it."
Lu Peixiu's anger also rose, "Don't think I don't dare."
"Come on, you fight."
Aunt Bao made up her mind that if she dared to make a move, she would extort twenty taels from her.
By then, I will have enough money to marry a wife.
Lu Peixiu began to roll up her sleeves and arms.
Humph, she must scare this woman today.
When Yun Xi saw this, she realized that this scoundrel Lu Peixiu really wanted to hit someone, so she immediately shouted, "That's enough, if you want to fight, fight with me."
Seeing that Yun Xi looked unhappy, the two of them finally calmed down, and Bao Pi also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lü Peixiu, don't forget why you followed me."
Knowing that with her temper, it was impossible for her to apologize on the spot. Even if she gave in and apologized, she would be unwilling to do so. So she didn't force it.
We can talk about the apology later, now we should separate the two of them.
Yun Xi looked at Aunt Bao and said, "Don't listen to her nonsense. She is a rich lady and she doesn't know the situation of us country folk. Now our conditions are getting better and better, and we can marry any kind of daughter-in-law. You should go back first. Maybe tomorrow another matchmaker will come to propose marriage. Don't be anxious and choose carefully."
Aunt Bao liked what she heard, and she felt much better. A smile appeared on her face again.
"Girl Xi is good at talking, unlike some people who are nothing."
As he said this, he rolled his eyes at Lu Peixiu.
"you……"
Lu Peixiu was so angry that she wanted to say something again, but Yun Xi glared at her, so she had to shut her mouth reluctantly.
