Chapter 148

When Mrs. Fang heard this, it was okay. Magistrate Zhou went to their house to sit down. Doesn't that mean that the Fang family was also surrounded?

"No, wait a minute, Mr. Zhou, our family really has nothing to do with the Tang family."

Mrs. Fang was originally unwilling to negotiate with a maid because of her status, but now that the maid refused to let go, she could only bargain with the maid.

"How are you doing with the Tang family? Call your young lady out and let's talk in person. What kind of decision can you, a maid, make here?"

"We, the Tang family, are also reputable people. We are poets and calligraphers. We are different from you businessmen. How can our young lady show up in public to negotiate with you without lowering her status? The young lady does not have to rely on your Fang family, but your Fang family

The young master was neither exhumed nor placed in the coffin. He was not ill or in trouble. He just didn't come to propose marriage for no reason. This is your Fang family's fault. Without further ado, you have delayed our young lady's youth for at least three years. How do you calculate this expense?"

Mrs. Fang finally understood that the Tang family just wanted money.

"How much do you want?"

"There are three hundred and sixty-five days in one year, and one thousand and ninety-five days in three years. You will pay our lady 1,095 taels of youth loss as a dowry. That's it. If we pay, we can break the pot."

If you fall, you won’t be able to retreat.”

Mrs. Fang looked at Xiaoling's confident victory and wanted to tear this girl apart.

I really dare the lion to open his mouth.

Fang Ling was very unhappy and said: "Ah, your young lady has a face that looks like a mother, gold, wood, water, and fire. She is dressed in a rustic way. Her facial features look like she has been run over by a carriage wheel.

Fei, she is worthy of one tael of silver a day. Why don't you go and rob her? Except me, Fang Ling, who thinks he is unlucky and has not buried his ancestral grave properly, so he made an engagement with her. Who else dares to marry her? A thing that no one wants.

Don't even think about cheating me out of a thousand taels of silver."

Unexpectedly, Fang Ling's mouth was so weak. These words were used to scold a girl who was still engaged to his fiancée. She was simply not a human being. After hearing this, Tang Si burst into tears. This kind of thing was simply insulting.

Jiang Wee really wanted to rush out and beat him until his teeth were all over the floor, but Tang Si held her back with red eyes, and her secret was revealed when she went out.

"I dare to marry you!"

Fang Ling was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Zhou Ziang and asked stupidly: "What did Mr. Zhou just say?"

I saw Zhou Ziang holding his hands behind his back, with a serious face, firm eyes, and clenched his cheeks, saying word by word: "I said I dare to marry you!"

Zhou Ziang really couldn't stand listening anymore. Fangling's words were simply more disgusting than spitting excrement.

He remembered that in the yamen at that time, the girl who would cover her mouth and chuckle without contempt when he heard him talk about being poor; who would not despise his lack of formality, chewed his elbows with her mouth full of grease, and listened to his instructions on chess skills with an open mind.

What Fang Ling said was so unbearable.

I really couldn't stand listening anymore, so I spoke.

Now the whole scene became quiet.

Even Jiang Wen and Tang Si inside were stunned when they heard this.

Jiang Ao saw Tang Xi's expression of disbelief. She also felt that she didn't know what to say at this moment, so she could only say awkwardly: "Master Zhou is so righteous."

Jiang Wen only said that he was trying to save the siege, but Tang Si blushed with embarrassment. She was almost dying of embarrassment when a dignified prefect said he wanted to marry her in front of so many people.

When Xiaoling heard what Zhou Ziang said, she felt that the lady's fortune had changed. She lost a young master who was a businessman, but got a young uncle who was an official. She was so beautiful.

Now Xiaoling looked at Zhou Ziang and looked at her uncle for sure, and then said to Fang Ling fiercely: "So are you going to withdraw from the engagement or not?"

Fang Ling and Mrs. Fang were dumbfounded. What is the situation now?

The prefect who surrounded the Tang family actually said that he dared to marry Tang Si? Did they hear it correctly?

They didn't wake up from the shock until Xiaoling asked them, should they retreat?

Fang Ling hurriedly said: "Retreat, retreat immediately."

"What about the loss of youth fee?"

"Give it, give it right away."

Mrs. Fang asked the housekeeper to take out the banknotes. The housekeeper gave one thousand taels and one hundred taels. Xiaoling took a look at it and threw five taels to the Fang family housekeeper and said: "Don't say that our young lady took advantage of it."

You are cheap."

Fang Ling was so frightened by Zhou Ziang's words that he just thought that he was not qualified to compete with the prefect, so he immediately canceled the engagement.

But he didn't think about it. The prefect said that he wanted to marry Tang Si, which meant that the Tang family was indeed fine. What's more, he was the most qualified person with Tang Si. After all, if he didn't break off the engagement, Zhou Ziang would always be beyond the control.

However, due to legal barriers, it was impossible to marry Tang Si.

Therefore, Zhou Ziang's words are too powerful.

The divorce ended so smoothly. The mother and daughter of the Fang family were so impatient that a small trick from Jiang Wen could cause them to be in chaos.

The Fang family has already broken off the engagement, and both parties have returned the eight-character Geng Tie and tokens, and the Yamen has also filed a record.

The most important thing now is what Zhou Ziang said at that time.

Afterwards, when everyone got together, they seemed to feel awkward instantly.

Tang Lianshan and Wang were sitting in the high hall.

Tang Shi was on the left, Zhou Ziang was on the right, and then they all sat down and started.

Tang Si was now standing behind Wang, and the scene became quiet for a while.

In the end, it was Tang who spoke first and said: "My niece's ability to break off the engagement this time was all due to Mr. Zhou's great help. Mr. Zhou is really indispensable."

"Wherever, I am just using people's money to eliminate disasters for others, and I am just following the orders of Miss Jiang San."

He didn't take any credit at all, but looked at Jiang Wei with piercing eyes and asked: "Although this matter was solved in three days, how much did it cost?"

"The wages will be paid and can be paid to Mr. Zhou immediately. But Mr. Zhou just threatened outside that he dared to marry my eldest cousin?"

Jiang Wen looked at Tang Si and saw her looking away with a shy look.

But Zhou Ziang had a headache. Just now, he really had an instinct and felt that what Fang Ling said was unacceptable. Now looking at Tang Si's shy look, Zhou Ziang thought to himself, it's over, he's in trouble.

Zhou Ziang, who has always been calm and self-possessed, sometimes scratches his head, but he can't marry Tang Si.

"I'm here. Just now, I'm here to rescue Miss Tang."

It stands to reason that Zhou Zi'ang has lowered his attitude, from calling himself an officer just now to calling himself "a subordinate", which shows that he is also panicking inside.

But even Tang Lianshan heard this. Zhou Ziang didn't really want to marry Tang Si, and he was starting to shirk it.

"Why, Mr. Zhou just said it for fun? How can this important matter of marriage be a piece of cake?"

Wang was happy to see Tang's jokes. She thought she could really fly up a branch and become the prefect's wife, but she didn't expect that they were just teasing her for fun.

Wang sneered and said: "I thought our Tang family could produce a prefect's wife, but after a long time, Master Zhou also dislikes the eldest lady of our Tang family and is not worthy of you?"
