After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Chapter 124 We also have accounts to settle

Chen Man shouted: "Village Chief, you have to help our own people in the village!"

Several men outside also echoed: "That's right, Village Chief, don't forget, we are from the same village, don't be biased towards outsiders!"

Jiang Xiaohe looked at those men coldly and memorized their appearances. The other onlookers said nothing. These men danced so hard. How could they be so arrogant in this village?

"Village Chief Chen, if you want to stop us from taking my eldest sister away today, that's fine, but if we go out, I don't know how to spread the word about your village. Tell me, if people outside knew that women who marry into your village will be drowned if they give birth to a girl, will there be any family willing to marry their daughter to your village to suffer?"

Village Chief Chen looked at Jiang Xiaohe and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Are you threatening me?"

Jiang Xiaohe smiled coldly: "It's not a threat, I'm just reminding you, after all, you are the head of a village, which is more important, this village or a family in the village, you should have a scale in your heart, right?"

Village chief Chen glanced at her sideways, while the villagers behind him, especially the men, were still talking.

"Village chief, they dare to threaten you, which means they don't respect you. We will fight them. At worst, we can detain them all in the village."

Village Chief Chen looked at the man who spoke again. He definitely knew what was meant by the man's eyes.

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Xiaohe and the others' hearts were in their throats.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at this group of people. She felt that they did not look like farmers who made a living from the land. Instead, they looked more like bandits who robbed houses. She was slightly moved.

Zeng Xianglan got up at this time. With the support of the village chief and the villagers, she immediately stood up: "Yes, village chief, detain them all in our village. These people outside..."

The rest of the words were blocked by a look from Village Chief Chen.

"Do you want to kill us?" Jiang Xiaohe said, staring into the eyes of Village Chief Chen.

Village Chief Chen raised his eyebrows slightly: "How could that be? The people in our village are serious farmers."

Although he said so, Jiang Xiaohe did not feel relieved. Poor people are prone to unruly people. What if these people really fight to the death?

And when he said this, several men behind him had unknowingly walked behind him.

Jiang Xiaohe pretended to glance at Zhang Daniu and Wang Hong casually. The two understood the meaning in her eyes and nodded slightly.

She then met Village Chief Chen's eyes and said submissively, "Village Chief Chen, after all we've said, we just want to bring my sister back to vent her anger. We don't want to make a big deal out of it. After all, if we really make a big deal out of it, it won't be a good thing for you or for us, right?"

Zeng Xianglan grabbed the village chief's clothes and said, "Village chief, don't listen to them. They won't be able to take Wang Daya away today!"

After saying that, she stared at them viciously, like a poisonous snake.

Village Chief Chen glanced at her but said nothing.

"At worst, we can just give them some silver! What do you think, Village Chief? Can't we just pay them back the same amount they spent on marrying my elder sister?"

Village Chief Chen thought what she said was right, and turned to look at Zeng Xianglan: "Anyway, your family just wants a woman to give birth to a son for your family. It doesn't matter who gives birth. Since their family is willing to compensate you with money, you can just marry another one, right?"

He said this because he didn't want to make things worse.

Zeng Xianglan naturally understood what he meant. She turned her eyes and looked at Chen Man. Chen Man's eyes lit up. Wang Daya, this woman, had been played by him a long time ago. If he could really get the money, it would be more interesting to marry another virgin. Moreover, Wang Daya had already given birth to a money-losing child. What if the next child was also a money-losing child?

When he thought of this, he looked up at Zeng Xianglan, and the meaning in his eyes was expressed vividly.

Zeng Xianglan snorted: "Since they want to take Wang Daya away, we can do as they say! But..."

She looked at Jiang Xiaohe: "It's definitely not enough to just compensate us for the betrothal money. Wang Daya has been eating and wearing my clothes for more than a year, so she needs money too!"

Jiang Xiaohe looked at her without any annoyance: "Okay, we can calculate the silver."

"Also, you beat my son like this! Do you have to pay for his medical expenses as well?"

Jiang Xiaohe glanced at Chen Man and nodded: "Compensate, we will all pay!"

Wang Dayi wanted to speak, but Chen Xiuquan pulled him back, signaling him with her eyes to hold it still and wait and see what Xiaohe had to say.

When Zeng Xianglan saw that Jiang Xiaohe agreed, she immediately showed a proud expression.

"We spent 4 taels of silver to marry Wang Daya. She has been living in our house for almost two years. I don't think it's too much. I'll give you taels of silver. And my son's injury. You just hit his leg with a stick. I don't know if there will be any sequelae. Look at the wound on his face. His nose is bleeding all over the floor. I don't think it's too much. Just give me taels!"

He asked for twenty-nine taels of silver just by opening and closing his mouth!

After saying that, he stretched out his hand: "Give me the silver! As long as you give me the silver, you can take that little bitch away now."

Jiang Xiaohe looked at her sinister and cunning face, then glanced at the village chief, only to see that he didn't say anything. She sneered in her heart, and suddenly smiled on her face.

"Hahaha... old vicious woman, are you sure you calculated the money correctly?"

At this time, Zhang Daniu and Hongwa walked behind Jiang Xiaohe. They both had weapons in their hands. Not only them, but also Zhang Fu and other men had weapons in their hands behind their backs.

Moreover, they all changed their positions unconsciously, protecting the women in their families behind them.

"What? Didn't you just say you would compensate us? Now you want to default on your debt?" Zeng Xianglan immediately yelled.

"Defeating? When have we ever denied a debt? But you have settled the debt, so now shouldn't we settle the debt too?"

"What accounts do you want to settle?" Zeng Xianglan frowned.

"You have accounts to settle, so we naturally have accounts to settle too!"
