Chapter 124 New Clan Rules
"You are such an unreasonable person!"
Although the children had just had an argument, they usually played together and were good friends.
Now that they were bullied by such a stranger, the children were naturally extremely angry!
"Give us our things back!"
"This is Shen Yan's stuff! You robber!"
"You're such a grown-up and you're still trying to steal something from a child. You're so shameless!"
......
The children surrounded Zhou Wang and kept talking and blaming him.
A few older children tried to snatch the toys back from Zhou Wang.
"this is mine!"
Zhou Wang held the things he had snatched in his arms and pushed the children around him hard.
He turned around and ran behind Mrs. Zhou, showing off.
"Mom, look, this thing is fun."
Shen Tang's face was gloomy, and he saw that both Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Liang looked unhappy.
"Is this the good family you told Sister Zhaodi about?"
Mrs. Zhou was even more anxious and hurriedly advised her son:
"Wang'er, return the things to your brothers! We can't steal other people's things!"
Zhou Wang turned his head and pouted:
"No, I haven't had enough fun yet!"
Shen Tang stood up and looked at the nervous Liang and Zhou mother and son in front of him.
"Liang, although I don't have the final say in Shenjia Village now, I think I have a say. How dare you marry a girl from my Shen family to a mentally retarded person!
You don't take the Shen family seriously, and you don't take me, the county marquis, seriously either!"
Shen Tang was full of energy, and both Liang and Zhou's mother and son were frightened by Shen Tang's appearance.
"Go and invite the village head and a few elders, and then invite everyone in the village who is currently at home."
Shen Tang instructed Lu Zhu.
Liang started to panic when she heard this.
If the whole village came, she would have no face to live.
Her three sons have grown up. If this gets out, no girl would be willing to marry into her family?
No, no, Shen Tang cannot call everyone from Shenjia Village.
Just as Luzhu was about to walk out the door, Liang grabbed her.
Liang knelt on the ground and cried:
"Master, oh no, Marquis of the County, it was the Zhou family who bewitched and deceived us. We didn't know that the young master of the Zhou family was mentally retarded! If I had known, how could I have been willing to marry Zhaodi to such a family!"
It’s all the Zhou family’s fault! Yes! It’s the Zhou family who deceived us! County Marquis, you have to take charge of this for me! Now she deceived me, next time she might deceive other families in the clan!
While crying, Liang pointed at Zhou and her son who were standing beside her.
"I'll tear your mouth apart! How dare this bastard frame me? County Marquis, our Zhou family didn't lie to her!
Yes, my son is mentally retarded, so my Zhou family is willing to pay a high price for the bride price. Liang, it wasn't like this when you asked your sister to come to my house!
It is you who are thinking about the twenty-five taels of silver from our family, and you want to sell your daughter!
My Zhou family doesn't do business that forces people!
"Sir, this Liang came to our Zhoujia Village a few days ago and specifically asked me to meet my son and teach him well!"
Mrs. Zhou forced a wry smile when she said this.
"I didn't expect it to be exposed by an accident."
Liang got up from the ground.
"What do you mean by selling my daughter? You're the one who wants to use my daughter to get in touch with the county marquis's connections, so you can get him to treat your stupid son!"
"My son is not stupid!"
The two men started fighting as they talked.
"What are you doing!"
At the door were the village head and several elders who came over after hearing the noise.
Following behind the elder were the group of children.
"Uncle Lizheng! It's him! He's the one who bullies us!"
A child stood behind Shen Lizheng and pointed at Zhou Wang.
Shen Li was drying beans at home when he heard several children crying and saying that people from other villages were bullying them. Shen Tang was also there and was bullied.
It's worth it!
He came here in a hurry and called a few elders along the way.
Unexpectedly, when I opened the door, I saw two women fighting.
"Uncle Village Head, you've come at the perfect time! Although it's said that marriages are decided by parents and matchmakers, I don't think anyone in Shenjia Village would agree to marrying their daughter to a fool.
If this gets out, everyone will think that my parents and elders in Shenjia Village are all selling their daughters for wealth and status."
Lu Zhu recounted what happened in Liang's courtyard.
The expressions of everyone present changed.
Their Shenjia Village has finally managed to gain a foothold in the surrounding villages thanks to Shen Tang. If they marry their daughter off for just over twenty taels of silver, the reputation they have worked so hard to build up will be gone in an instant.
Among the people present, there are many families whose young people have not yet married. If this were to be known, the next generation of Shenjia Village would have no chance of getting married!
Shen Dazhuang went to the fields to check on the rice early this morning. When he came back, he found that his yard was surrounded by people.
"Da Zhuang, you've come at the right time. Do you know about this?"
Shen Dazhuang looked at Liang and Zhou with disheveled hair, and how could he not understand what was happening.
But when the words came to my lips, they became:
"Aren't we supposed to let the two kids meet today? Why did it become like this?"
"Don't you know that the man your wife found for Zhaodi is mentally retarded?"
Shen Dazhuang exclaimed:
"How can he be mentally retarded? Liang! Didn't you say that the Zhou family are all kind people, and that Master Zhou is also a simple and kind person?"
Shen Tang looked at Shen Dazhuang and sneered.
"Zhao Di, if nothing else, is at least someone close to me."
When Shen Lizheng heard this, his expression became serious.
"Da Zhuang, call off this marriage! You are the head of the family, you should always have some involvement in your child's marriage! Zhaodi's mother passed away early, and her eldest brother went to work in town. As a father, you should also pay more attention."
After Shen Lizheng finished speaking, he saw that Shen Tang's expression had not improved yet, so he changed his mind and said:
"You two can't make the decision on Zhaodi's future marriage on your own. You should always consult the county marquis first!"
Seeing Shen Lizheng passing the words to him, Shen Tang naturally took over:
"The girls under my command, Shen Tang, have the right to freely choose who to marry. If you don't want to, then take the person back now! Since I, Shen Tang, have hired someone to work, then this person is mine.
My people don't need others to dictate their lives!"
When Shen Tang said this, he stared at Liang.
"Shenjia Village has finally had such a good day today, and I hope everyone can understand it clearly.
Children should be filial and respectful, but parents should also be kind and tolerant.
I don't want the Shen family, on the verge of rising, to be damaged by these little things."
Shen Tang said this to Shen Lizheng and the clan elders.
Sure enough, after saying this, everyone present had different expressions.
"I, Shen Tang, in the name of the County Marquis, have added new clan rules."
"No matter how the Shen family of Qingshan Village develops in the future, they must not force the women of the village under any pretext. The Shen family is upright and honest, and no family's wealth is achieved by selling their daughters for money!"
