Hua Ziyu shook his head slightly.
Having too many "peach blossom debts" is troublesome, but he still had to persuade his cousin to curb his fierce temper.
As for the Zhang Family Sisters, during his time in the village, he had often heard how the people from the Zhang family used to bully Ms. Yang and the Yang family. Now that his cousin was teaching the Zhang family a lesson on behalf of Ms. Yang and the Yang family, it was a good thing.
Yang Chengrong opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately chose to remain silent.
Meanwhile, Luo Jingyao, Wei Wenhai, and Black Wolf watched the drama unfold with great interest.
In the courtyard.
Madam Yang Zhou held her well-behaved granddaughter's hand, "Is Lady Xiao doing well?"
" Aunty Xiao just suffered from the heat and felt a bit unwell. After taking a couple of doses of medicine, she has already recovered," Yang Mengchen planned to tell her family the good news later that evening.
"That's good to hear. We can rest easy knowing Lady Xiao is well," Madam Yang Zhou finally let out the breath she was holding.
Observing that there were no outsiders around, Yang Mengchen asked suspiciously, "Grandma, what are Madam Zhang Liao and her daughters doing at our house?"
"They're forcing a marriage!" Before Madam Yang Zhou could speak, Yang Cheng'an cut in.
Yang Mengchen raised her eyebrows.
"Anan, don't spout nonsense! We all live in the same village, spreading such talk would harm harmony," Madam Yang Zhou gently scolded her grandson.
"I'm not talking nonsense!" Yang Cheng'an's face showed defiance, and with tones of annoyance and contempt, he said, "Sister doesn't know; when Madam Zhang Liao first arrived, she relentlessly praised Zhang Meiju and Zhang Meixing for their beauty, gentleness, and good nature, clever and sensible… anyway, she rambled on with all sorts of things.
In the end, when she saw that we were still not responding, Madam Zhang Liao openly proposed that Zhang Meiju should be wed to our eldest brother and demanded that our family provide dry land, Dayang Mountain, and three thousand taels of silver as a bride price;
Additionally, Madam Zhang Liao originally wanted to betroth Zhang Meixing to Sixth Brother or Seventh Brother but, seeing they were not around, she immediately changed her mind and proposed her to our fourth brother, requesting three workshops and five thousand taels of silver as a bride price.
She even declared that Zhang Meixing, marrying into our family as the chief wife of the third son, would rightfully manage your finances as your eldest sister-in-law;
If we did not agree, Madam Zhang Liao said she would make things difficult for us;
Her attitude was completely arrogant and lacked any sense of shame. Had mother not stopped me, I would have beaten Madam Zhang Liao until she was searching for her teeth on the ground!"
Yang Cheng'an was quick with his words, and before Madam Yang Zhou could intervene, he had already said everything. She could only glare at him in reprimand and exchanged a wry smile with Wu Xuehua and her sister-in-law who had just come out.
Upon hearing this, Yang Mengchen's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and a cold and fierce light flashed and disappeared in the depths of her eyes.
Besides the matter with the Lan family, she couldn't think of any reason why Madam Zhang Liao would dare to threaten their family so fearlessly. She was positive that Zhang Lianhua wouldn't tell Madam Zhang Liao about the Lan family's issue, so how did Zhang Liao learn of it?
It seemed she would have to find something to keep Madam Zhang Liao occupied to prevent her from troubling her grandmother and the others.
Seeing the worried looks on the faces of Madam Yang Zhou and the four others, Yang Mengchen reassured them with a smile, " You don't have to worry about this matter, I have my ways of dealing with it. By the way, Grandma, Uncle Xiao and Aunty Xiao have already agreed to Wanxue's marriage with my eldest brother, so we should consider which matchmaker to engage.
We can go to the Xiao family to propose marriage in a couple of days."
"Really?" When they saw Yang Mengchen nod, the faces of Madam Yang Zhou and the others lit up with joy, "That's wonderful! Matchmaker Wang in the village is quite good; let's go to her. But we should carefully consider what gifts to prepare so as not to be rude."
Just as Yang Mengchen was about to say they should follow their decision on the matter, she suddenly heard the frightened and pitiful pleas for mercy of Zhang Meiju from outside the courtyard. She was instantly alarmed and hurried out of the courtyard.
Madam Yang Zhou and the five others quickly followed behind.
