Chapter 40: Divorce
hem obviously didn't expect the teenage Dong'er to say such words.Dongge'er felt awkward saying those words to begin with, and now being stared at by the two of them made him even more uncomfortable...."You don't dream of it!" , before An Fugui could speak, Wang shi screamed in reply.
Wang's outburst filled the eyes of those present with disdain.
They knew, this Wang family came here, wasn't because they cared about An Xuetang at all.
She and An Fugui, to put it plainly, just want to take advantage of An Xuetang's death to make some money.
An Xuetang ignored Wang, her gaze fixed on An Fugui instead. "Grandfather, what do you think Should we give some silver to Ah Tang for treatment"
"An Fugui turned his face slightly, "Our An family doesn't have silver to pay for your medical expenses. Since you're married now, you should ask your husband for the money."
"... "
Such shameless words could only be uttered by An Fugui and the Wang family.
At this moment, Dongge walked to An Xietang's side and coldly looked at the two of them:
“You are really cunning. When An Xuetang was alive, you claimed she was Cloud Big Brother’s wife and had her ask Cloud Big Brother for money to treat her illness. But now that she’s ‘dead’, you think the compensation money should go to your family Your family's face is truly thick, wanting every benefit for yourselves.”
A flash of pain, like being struck by everyone's gaze, burned on An Fugui's face.
He gritted his teeth and sized An Xuetang up and down, "Grandfather, you seem fine. Why waste the silver"
"I'm hurt internally."
“...” Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
"Well then, raise him well,"
In short, don't even think about getting a penny from him!
An Xuetang instantly turned cold, "Since grandfather said that, then don't blame me for settling the score with you."
"Speaking of this, she looked at Li Zheng, “Li Zheng, today, I ask you to bear witness, and also all the elders and villagers here, I, An Xue Tang, announce that from today onwards, I have nothing to do with the An family anymore.” "
"!" An Fugui glared at her. "Do you know what you're saying"
"Of course I know!"
"You know nothing!" Wang scoffed, looking at her with disdain. "You, a woman, dare to abandon your family Don't forget, only your family can be your support. If you leave us, who will back you up"
“...”
An Xuetang's mouth twitched, she looked at Wang shi with the gaze of an idiot, "Grandmother thinks you guys will support me How"
Wang was speechless.
"Grandfather and grandmother have lived for so many years, don't they really know what it means to sell a person You sold me to Yun Liu, even handing over the deed of sale, and now you say you want to support me, what kind of logic is that"
"That's right, that's right," Liu Pozi suddenly interjected. "I think you just see that Daya is living well, so you want to take advantage of her. People like you would even support Daya I don't believe it!"
An Fugui glared at Liu Pozi, "What's it to you Just shut your mouth!"
Liu Pozi instantly rolled up her sleeves and wanted to argue with him, but Liu Pozi's husband quickly stopped her mouth, "Let the An family solve it themselves."
An Xuetang smirked, looking at An Fugui, "Of course, if Grandfather feels any affection for his granddaughter and regrets selling me off, he could always try to make amends."
An Fu Gui stared at her, eager to hear what she would say.
"Grandfather and grandmother, it's not like this. Back then, Yunliu spent twenty taels of silver to buy me. Now you return these twenty taels, and I will still be your granddaughter."
"Wang shi, how could you possibly..." She gritted her teeth, staring daggers at An Xue Tang. "Impossible! Want money Not a single copper coin!"
"Since that's the case, then I ask that you two never come to my home again, bothering my husband. From the moment you sold me, my life and death have been severed from yours. I, An Xuetang, live or die, and your An family has no right to speak a word."
Similarly, I, An Xue Tang, whether wealthy or impoverished, have no concern for settling down. As for my grandmother frequently coming to visit and asking me to offer her wild chicken and rabbit as a tribute, I hope this will never happen again.
"Having said that, An Xuetang didn't wait for Wang Shi and An Fugui to retort before turning to the village head and asking, "Village Head, do you think what I said is wrong"
Li Zheng shook his head slightly, "Of course there's nothing wrong. Since your deed of sale has been given to the Yun family, your fate is now in their hands. You have no more connection with the An family."
"What about filial piety Elder Li, do you really think I still need to be filial to my grandparents"
"Of course not needed," Liu Pozi said with schadenfreude, "Since Wang shi has already sold you, then Da Ya, of course, you don't need to be filial to her. Even if you become rich in the future, you don't need to give her a penny, let alone giving her only wild chicken and rabbit now!"
Li Zheng nodded in agreement, "What Aunt Liu said is right. Since you have sold yourself to the Yun family and your family took the silver for selling you, you naturally don't need to talk about filial piety to them anymore."
"Alright, An Xue Tang understands." An Xue Tang looked at An Fugui, "Grandfather can hear me From now on, An Xue Tang has no obligation to be filial to you and Grandmother, so you two should come to my house less often."
An Fugui suddenly spoke, "You and the An family are not estranged!"
"...“
Anfu貴's face skin, An Xuetang really wants to pull it and see how thick his face is.
Li Zheng snorted, "Now all it takes is Da Ya to say the word, and I'll have your disengagement papers drawn up immediately. We'll file them with the local government today."
An Xuetang raised an eyebrow, "Then I'll trouble you, Lizheng. I want to break off ties with the An family."
Lǐ readily agreed without hesitation, "Fine, I'll write a statement right now to get you two annulled."
"I refuse!" An Fugui said coldly, "I disagree with the annulment of the engagement!"
"What qualification do you have to disagree" Li Zheng sneered, "You want the silver sold by Dayaya but don't want to break off relations with her. What are you plotting You think you can get all the benefits and settle down comfortably Do you really think the Yun brothers are easy to bully"
Mo Yunjing chimed in at that moment, "If Anjia doesn't want to break off the relationship, how about returning the twenty taels Otherwise, we can just go to the authorities."
"No! Not yet!" yelled Mrs. Wang, "Break her, make her break! I'll have her regret this for the rest of her life!"
Anyway, once the money is in her hands, there's no way she'll spit it out.
Now, a maid can be bought for just three or five taels of silver, but An Xuetang is sold for twenty taels. Isn't that just right
With so many people watching, and Li Zheng supporting An Xue Tang, An Fuguai, unwilling as he was, pressed his handprint and severed ties with An Xue Tang.
An Xuetang looked at the divorce papers, she smiled contentedly.
Mo Yunjing saw that she was happy, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.
After the villagers dispersed, Dong’er stayed behind. He looked at An Xuetang, wanting to speak but holding back.
An Xuetang couldn't help but facepalm, "Little brat, just say what you have to say. Don't give me that deep and serious expression."
Dongge pursed his lips, “I... I meant what I said about your brother. Since there's no home for you to return to, I... I will be your family.”He caught sight of the guards nearby with their swords, and he charged over directly. He drew a sword and turned back to stab it into the eunuch's body."... "Hua Duo'er and Ye Er looked at each other...
