Chapter 147 Forced Marriage
On the 29th day, after breakfast, the Qin family was busy hanging lanterns and pasting window flowers.
The Qin family discussed the Shen matter last night, but it did not have much impact on the Qin family.
Because Dazhu was unable to return home for the New Year, the Zhou family simply decorated the atmosphere at home and rushed to the Qin family to help with chores.
At this time, a carriage entered Changhe Village and was slowly heading towards the Qin family.
"Ruo'er, my eyelids have been twitching all morning, and I'm feeling very anxious. What should I do?"
After getting up in the morning, Old Lady Qin's eyelids kept twitching and she always had a premonition that something bad was going to happen.
She quietly pulled Qin Ruo aside and whispered her concerns.
Seeing Old Lady Qin looking as if she was facing a formidable enemy, Qin Ruo couldn't help but laugh.
"Don't scare yourself. It's Chinese New Year, so eat and drink. Everyone is here."
As soon as Qin Ruo finished speaking, Zhou Erzhu rushed over like the wind.
"Sister A Ruo, look over there. There's another carriage coming this way. Sister A Ruo, could it be that you have guests coming today?"
Qin Ruo and Old Lady Qin looked at each other, then turned around and saw the carriage slowly approaching the Qin family.
There was a large group of people following behind the carriage, but because it was far away, it was difficult to see clearly who they were.
At this time, the people working in the yard also noticed this scene and stopped their work and came forward.
"Sister..."
"Sister..."
Qin Zimu and Qin Ziyan spoke almost at the same time. After what Old Lady Qin said last night, the two brothers looked nervous at the moment, as if they were afraid of everything.
"Be patient and take a look first." Qin Ruo gently comforted the Qin Ziyan brothers.
Song Shiqi held a sword and sat on the big tree in the Qin family's yard, looking intently at the group of people coming towards the Qin family.
Qin Tiaotiao's face was full of excitement. He squeezed next to Qin Ruo and started discussing with her.
"Sister, if they are here to cause trouble, can you leave them to me to play with? I promise I won't kill them."
During the time that Qin Tiaotiao has been with the Qin family, the Qin family also understands Qin Tiaotiao's personality. Qin Tiaotiao is good at martial arts, so they don't find his words strange.
Only Zhou Erzhu turned his head to look at Qin Tiaotiao with envy, and then looked at Qin Zimu.
On the day the Qin family came back, Zhou Erzhu knew Song Shiqi's identity.
Brother Song is Erlang's master, who teaches Erlang martial arts. Even Qin Tiaotiao is very skilled.
"Okay, it depends on the situation." Qin Ruo touched Qin Tiaotiao's head with a smile. If they are rushing to seek death during the New Year, then just give them a ride.
"Look! Aren't those people from the Qin family at the village following the carriage? Hey, aren't those old Qin Zhengde and his family? What are they doing on New Year's Day?" Old Mrs. Zhou was the first to speak up and pointed at the group of people in anger.
"Ruo'er, what you fear will come true. What should we do?" Old Mrs. Qin was very panicked. She was shocked and angry when she saw that it was Qin Zhengde's gang.
"Hey, Lao Qin, why are you panicking? We are all here, what can old Qin Zhengde do? Quick! Grab your weapons! Beat them out later."
Old Mrs. Zhou shouted domineeringly behind her, "The Qin family is now the Zhou family's great benefactor."
Since that old guy dared to bring people to bully her, her Zhou family would naturally not stand idly by.
Old Mrs. Zhou didn't know the secrets of the Qin family, but she really hated the behavior of Qin Zhengde's family to the core.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the Qin family's courtyard. In addition to Qin Zhengde and the Qin family, there were a few unfamiliar faces in the team.
Three people dressed as maids and two guards with swords.
Qin Huaihai's wife, his mother and Wang stood at the front of the crowd with smug looks on their faces, as if everything in the Qin family was as easy as taking something out of a bag in the eyes of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
The other party did not speak, and neither did the Zhou and Qin families, and the situation remained in a stalemate.
Banxia and Xundong stood on Qin Ruo's left and right. The Zhou family members and Qin Zimu brothers, some carrying hoes, some holding wooden sticks, were staring at Qin Zhengde and his group with a fierce look.
Qin Zhengde walked slowly forward from the crowd and frowned when he saw the scene in front of him.
She started by scolding loudly at Old Lady Qin who was standing at the front.
"How can you behave in broad daylight? Xie, why don't you let them leave? We have a distinguished guest here today, you can't be so presumptuous. And you from the Zhou family, this is our Qin family's family affair today, you have nothing to do here, why don't you leave quickly?"
After Qin Zhengde finished speaking, he looked back at the carriage behind him.
The people in the carriage neither got out nor made a sound.
Qin Zhengde couldn't help but secretly curse Nanny Tian in his heart. She said she came to help, but why didn't she say anything when she got here?
Helplessly, he did not dare to offend Nanny Tian who came from the capital.
He turned around and gestured to the people behind him in a pretentious manner, and several of the tribesmen who had come with him walked forward, holding wedding candies, wedding cakes, pork and other things, and prepared to go in.
"What are you doing? Get out!"
Old Mrs. Qin's forehead was throbbing. When she saw what these people were holding in their hands, she understood.
It turns out that old man Qin Zhengde came to propose marriage to the Qin family.
After failing to seize the Qin family's property, is he now eyeing his own Dalang or Ruoer?
Old Lady Qin was completely disgusted by Qin Zhengde and the people around him. She snatched the wooden stick from Qin Zimu's hand and pointed at Qin Zhengde and his group aggressively.
"Xie, please stop being unreasonable. Today, my clan members and I are here for the girl's marriage. The eldest girl has reached the age of marriage, and it is time for her to choose a suitable marriage. The third brother died early, and your Huaizheng couple died young. As the third brother's eldest brother, I naturally have to plan for the third brother's marriage. I have already found the person, and the clan members have agreed unanimously that it is the nephew of Xu's Huaihai's wife's family, who is a perfect match for the eldest girl."
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and take your things into the house. If you delay this happy event tonight, I will show you how I will deal with you."
With Nanny Tian's support, Qin Zhengde was full of confidence and held his head high.
At this moment, he didn't take Old Lady Qin and her group seriously at all, and ordered his clansmen to go into the house.
Anyway, today's matter has to be accomplished whether it succeeds or not.
The tribesmen who were holding the things usually obeyed Qin Zhengde's orders.
Not to mention that last night I learned from the old patriarch Qin Zhengde that this inconspicuous girl from the Qin family had secretly opened a restaurant and a house in Taihe County, which made me jealous.
The old patriarch had said before he came that if this matter was accomplished today, each family would naturally receive a lot of benefits.
Relying on their large numbers and with the support of Nanny Tian, these clansmen tried to force their way in, holding symbolic gifts to the Qin family as a token of their proposal for marriage.
