A woman in her 1970s remarried a tycoon with no heir, and gave birth to triplets, stunning the famil

"Zhao Di, come home with me today. I'll take you back to your house tomorrow to propose marriage," Jiang Linwan said.

The Jiang family was also worried about Tian Zhaodi going back, so they looked at her and said, "You should go stay at Wanwan's house for the night."

"Tomorrow, Auntie will bring Mingchuan to your house to propose marriage. Let's get the wedding done as soon as possible, and then we'll stay far away from that family."

Tian Zhaodi nodded with red eyes.

It was already dark when the family returned to Dayu Island. Jiang Linwan and Tian Zhaodi had just arrived when Lu Qiyue saw her and immediately pulled her into his arms: "Where have you been? Why are you back so late?"

"We'll talk about it when we get back. Let me go first, there are still people there." Jiang Linwan struggled to break free from his embrace.

"What's wrong with someone? I'm hugging my own wife."

Seeing this scene from behind, Tian Zhaodi was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth. Wasn't Commander Lu supposed to be fierce? Why does he seem so clingy? Yes, he is clingy.

Lu Qiyue then noticed Tian Zhaodi behind him, and slightly loosened his grip on Jiang Linwan, but his hand was still on her waist. He gently pulled her back into the courtyard: "You haven't had dinner yet, have you?"

Aunt Liu left you some food. Go wash up first, and I'll bring it to you.

He went to the kitchen after he finished speaking.

Looking at Commander Lu's virtuous and loving wife demeanor, Tian Zhaodi said with envy, "Lin Wan, Commander Lu is so good to you."

"What's the big deal? My brother will treat you the same way in the future. All the men in the Jiang family love their wives," Jiang Linwan said proudly.

Having seen too many chauvinistic men, and those who use the excuse of listening to their mothers to actually be selfish, she is becoming more and more proud of the men in her family.

Upon hearing this, Tian Zhaodi blushed slightly: "Does your brother hit his wife?"

Jiang Linwan looked shocked: "What do you mean? My brother hit you?"

Tian Zhaodi immediately shook her head: "No, I'm scared. My dad has beaten my mom at home. Many men in our village beat their wives."

Actually, if she married Jiang Mingchuan and went that far away in the future, she was gambling with her fate.

However, she doesn't regret it. The man she married in their small town was poor and had a bad temper.

But the Jiang family is rich, so even if she has a bad life, she won't be short of money. If Xiuwan is willing, she won't suffer with her after she has children.

It's often said that marriage is like a second chance at life for a woman. If she marries a good man, her children will have a good life; if she marries a bad one, her children will also suffer misfortune.

Jiang Linwan smiled and said, "No, the men in our family can't hit women. What if my older brother really bullies you in the future?"

Come find me, and we'll teach him a lesson together.

Tian Zhaodi couldn't help but laugh when she thought of that scene.

Tian Zhaodi stayed at the Jiang family's house that night.

On the other side, in the Tian family courtyard, Jiang's eldest aunt was kneeling on the ground, crying uncontrollably.

"Maosheng's father, you must stand up for me! It's all that damned Zhaodi's fault that I lost my innocence."

I am her aunt, and she actually did something so disrespectful to her elders.

"When you get back, you must sell her far away!" Aunt Tian cried and shouted, while secretly glancing at her husband's expression.

She slept with other men. Won't her husband be disgusted by her and want to divorce her?

Accountant Tian was furious and eager to settle scores with Tian Zhaodi. It was all because of that brat; he was now completely cuckolded.

This news will reach their village in less than a day.

When everyone finds out his wife slept with another man, Accountant Tian gets angrier and angrier, glaring at her younger brother: "When that brat Zhao Di comes back, you'll tie her up and take her to my house."

Father Tian nodded repeatedly: "Brother, don't worry, I won't let that brat get away with ruining our Tian family's reputation like that."

Tian Huiji got up and left angrily. Aunt Tian quickly chased after him, reaching out to take his arm, but was pushed away in disgust: "Don't touch me."

"Maosheng's father, I was also framed and don't know anything." Aunt Tian cried as she spoke, but in her heart she cursed the Jiang family for being such scoundrels. Although she was old, she was a beauty when she was young.

That cripple even looked down on her.

"Dad, are we just going to let this matter with the Jiang family go like this?" Tian Maosheng asked.

Tian Huiji: "What do you want? Even if you let Zhaodi continue to marry, we have to wait until she comes back."

"That brat probably won't be coming back after running away."

Tian Maosheng sneered: "Niandi is still here, Zhaodi can't have gone far, and the Jiang family is also here, she can't bear to part with Jiang Mingchuan."

If she really keeps hiding at the Jiang family's house, then let Second Aunt and the others go to town and report the Jiang family for indecent behavior. Let them get shot, and see if the girl comes back or not.

After he finished speaking, he glanced at his mother and said, "My mother just let the Jiang family sleep with her for free?"

They should at least compensate our family with some money..."

As Accountant Tian listened to his son's words, he became more and more irritated with his wife. If he could actually get some money, he would feel a little better.

The next morning, Jiang Linwan got up early and took Tian Zhaodi back to Grandpa Jiang's place.

Jiang's parents had already packed the things needed for the marriage proposal. Although they were to sever ties once they arrived, they still had to go through the motions.

Not only that, they also invited the village chief of Shimo Village.

As the saying goes, good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast; it only took one night.

News of the Tian family's affair reached Shimo Village.

When Village Chief Shi saw the Jiang family bringing Zhao Di to their door, he looked furious: "Zhao Di, don't be afraid."

Uncle will go back with you. Let's see if your dad and the others still dare to sell you.

This is a new society; buying and selling people is a crime punishable by imprisonment.

"Zhao Di, you stay by Auntie's side for a while. There are so many of us, we definitely won't let you get bullied," Jiang's mother said.

Tian Zhaodi nodded with red eyes.

When the group arrived at the Tian family's house, Tian Pandi was making a scene in the courtyard: "Mom, you all accepted the bride price from the Jiang family. Even if my sister runs away, she will still marry into the Jiang family."

The Jiang family said they'd come to propose marriage today. If my sister can't get married, you can ask me to marry in her place.

Mother Tian looked worried: "We'll talk about this later. Let's find your sister first."

Father Tian, ​​with a sullen face, squatted on the ground with a cigarette in his hand: "Pandi is right. We've taken money from the Jiang family, so they'll definitely come back to our door."

That brat has to marry into the Jiang family. If the Jiang family really comes to propose marriage, let Pandi marry into the family. Anyway, she and her sister aren't that bad-looking.

If the Jiang family dares to ruin his plans, then they shouldn't blame him for turning against them. They want to marry Zhao Di, but he won't allow it.

When Tian Pandi heard her father agree, her face was full of smiles.

Before she could speak, the door was kicked open with a bang, and Village Chief Shi's angry voice rang out: "Tian Yougen, you really are good at scheming."

First you bought and sold people, and now you're trying to use a substitute to commit marriage fraud. I think you're headed for jail.

When Tian's father saw Village Chief Shi at the door, he was so startled that he immediately threw his cigarette on the ground and extinguished it. Then, looking very apprehensive, he said, "Village Chief Shi, can't I, as a father, even decide my own daughter's marriage?"

"You can decide for yourself, but you must respect the child's wishes. If Zhao Di is unwilling, you cannot force her."

"And what you just said about having Pandi marry in your place, what else is that but marriage fraud?" Village Chief Shi said with a gloomy face.

The Tian family is so short-sighted. If Zhaodi marries into the Jiang family, she'll be living a good life. The Jiang family isn't the kind of people who are materialistic; they'll be able to help the Tian family out in the future.

It's foolish to abandon a respectable in-law family and try to climb up to someone like the Jiang family.

Jiang's parents also looked very unhappy; the Tian family was truly shameless.

No wonder Zhao Di was so determined to sever ties with her husband.

Father Tian immediately became anxious: "Where did I deceive you into marriage? I was just waiting for the Jiang family to come and explain."

Anyway, I won't agree to Zhaodi marrying into the Jiang family. Either Pandi goes, or we're no longer in-laws.

"Tian Yougen, shut up. This is a new society. Children value free love. Stop using your status as an elder to bully them."

I'm telling you this now: if you agree to the human trafficking scheme, I'll keep it a secret for you.

"But if you don't agree, don't push the child too far and he'll report you to the police." Village Chief Shi threatened and coerced.

Father Tian glared at her: "She wouldn't dare. What daughter would dare to sue her own father? If word gets out, she'll be in the wrong."

"That's right, Village Chief Shi, you're meddling way too much."

"Our children's marriage is none of your business as a village head." Tian Huiji followed her into the courtyard, and upon seeing Tian Zhaodi, he felt an urge to tear her apart.

"If you were to marry normally, I naturally wouldn't be able to interfere, but you're suspected of human trafficking. Do you think I have any say in that?" Village Chief Shi said coldly to Tian Huiji.

"Zhao Di, did you marry into the Jiang family willingly?"

Tian Zhaodi immediately shook her head. Seeing that more and more people were standing at the door, she said, "It was my uncle and my cousin who tied me up and sent me to the Jiang family."

They tricked my dad into thinking I should sell myself so they could give him the bride price.

"Hiss... Tian Huiji is really shameless, selling his own niece to get a bride price for his son."

"Tian Yougen is also a fool. He doesn't know how to cherish his own daughter, but treats his older brother's son like a treasure."

"No matter how close they are, they're still someone else's son. They'll definitely take care of their own parents in their old age. You're spending money on them now, and they'll say a few nice things, but when they're old and no longer useful, who will care how much money you spent on them?" a discerning person exclaimed.

Tian Maosheng's face turned ugly as he glared at the people: "Stop trying to sow discord. I will remember all the kindness my second uncle has shown me, and I will take care of him when he gets old."

A touch of emotion appeared on the weathered face of the farmer: "Shut up. I can give my own money to whomever I want. You're just envious and jealous."

Village Chief Shi cursed "idiot" before getting back to business: "Tian Yougen, the Jiang family is here sincerely to propose marriage to you."

"If you agree, let's discuss it properly. If you don't agree, Zhao Di won't marry into the Jiang family. If you dare to kidnap Zhao Di again, I'll immediately report you to the police and have them arrested."

Tian Yougen was a little scared and looked at Tian Huiji.

Tian Huiji's face flushed red. The reason he secretly took Zhaodi to the Jiang family was because he was afraid that things would escalate and he would be sued. Losing his job as a clerk would be a minor matter; going to jail for life would be the end of him.

He looked at Village Chief Shi: "If you want our Zhaodi to marry into the Jiang family, that's fine, but the bride price can't be less than five thousand yuan, and we also need the 'three turns and one sound' (referring to a set of three watches and a radio), nothing can be missing."

"Tian Huiji, you really dare to ask for such an exorbitant amount! Five thousand yuan is enough to marry ten Zhaodi!" Shi Dagang's wife shouted.

The other onlookers were also shocked: "Tian Huiji, you must be obsessed with money. It's none of your business if someone is marrying off their daughter."

"My second brother will listen to me. It's five thousand yuan, not a penny less," Tian Huiji said smugly.

The Jiang family is rich, isn't it? They're always showing off, aren't they? He's determined to take a bite out of them.

Tian Yougen followed up, saying, "I'll listen to my older brother."

"Are you sure?" Village Chief Shi asked, looking at the two of them.

Tian Huiji felt a pang of guilt when she met the village chief's gaze: "My second brother raised his daughter with great difficulty, it's only right that he asks for this little bit of money! They don't even have this much sincerity, they're just looking down on us!"

"You're trying to show sincerity. In our village, the bride price for any wedding is only two hundred yuan. You're asking for dozens of times more. That's not showing sincerity."

"I see you want to continue selling your niece. Since we can't reach an agreement, then go report it to the police. I'm not going to get involved in this anymore," Village Chief Shi said with a sigh.

Jiang Linwan: "Village Chief Shi, I told you this should be reported to the police, but you insisted on stopping me. I agreed for Zhao Di's sake."

But now the Tian family is deliberately making things difficult for us, and we don't necessarily have to marry a girl from the Tian family.

Since the marriage is off, Zhao Di, please return the money my brother spent on you, as well as the gold bracelet and necklace he gave you.

Upon hearing this, Tian Zhaodi was stunned for a moment, then quickly looked at her father and Tian Huiji with reddened eyes: "Dad, Uncle, I have no money now. Since you don't agree to me marrying Brother Jiang..."

Then you can pay this money for me.

"Zhao Di, are you deliberately helping outsiders frame our family? When did you get a gold bracelet? How come I didn't know?" Tian Yougen asked.

With red eyes, Tian Zhaodi said, "I hid that gold bracelet in my room before. My aunt came to our house once and it was gone. I don't know where the gold bracelet went!"

My mom knows about this; my aunt came to visit last month.

Father Tian looked at Mother Tian, ​​and Mother Tian's mouth moved slightly: "My sister-in-law went into Zhaodi's room that day."

The people from the eldest branch of the Tian family have been using the second branch of the Tian family as an ATM for quite some time now.

Whenever the family was missing something, they would come and take it. It was common for them to go into the rooms of the young girls. Sometimes they would even go to the room of Tian Yougen and his wife to take things.

Tian Huiji thought about the new clothes his wife had bought last month and couldn't help but feel suspicious. Could it be that his wife had really taken them?

He quickly feigned composure: "A gold bracelet is worth at most two hundred yuan. You can return it. I'll get the money for you in a bit."

"It's not just one gold bracelet, it's a pair, and there's also a gold necklace. It costs a total of six hundred yuan. My brother also spends about one hundred yuan when he takes her to state-run restaurants."

"And Zhao Di's health isn't good. My grandfather prescribed her some tonics, all of which are expensive herbs like ginseng and lingzhi. They cost eight hundred yuan. All of these together amount to one thousand five hundred. Please pay me back." Jiang Linwan said, holding out her hand.

"Fifteen thousand? Why don't you just rob us!" Tian Huiji's voice was shrill with shock.

Jiang Linwan smiled and said, "Tian Huiji doesn't want to admit the debt. We still have the purchase receipts. If you don't believe me, we can check them one by one."
