When Wang Yi turned around, she saw Li Shi, Daya, and Erya staring at her blankly.

Holding a broom in one hand and with her other hand on her hip, she said, "Let's just call off this engagement. I'll find my older sister a top scholar as her husband."

Li then came to her senses: "What nonsense are you talking about, you silly child? A marriage can't be called off so easily."

He then took her broom and said, "What kind of behavior is this, a girl like you?"

Wang Yiyi protested, "The Jiang family is really going too far. I didn't hit her, I just kicked her out, which is already being polite enough."

After a moment of silence, Li suddenly laughed: "But today was truly satisfying. You did the right thing."

Wang Yi proudly raised her head, but when she glanced at Daya beside her, she felt a little guilty: "Big sister, did I do something wrong?"

Da Ya insisted on marrying Jiang Chengzong. After her outburst, how will Da Ya face the Jiang family in the future?

Daya shook her head: "You did the right thing, I'm very happy today."

"If I were to find a husband who would hinder my earning potential, I would definitely tear their house down. It's just that my eldest sister has a good temper," Er Ya pouted.

"Alright, stop talking, the pot's almost burning," Li interrupted Er Ya.

This kid has always been quite reckless; who knows what he might say next.

When the second batch of tofu was ready, Wang Dashan returned with Datou and Ertou.

Before even entering the door, he asked, "What's wrong? Mantun's wife is saying all over the village that our Daya is disrespectful, and you're talking back to her?"

Before the marriage was even finalized, his future mother-in-law said such things. Although he was also annoyed with Wu, he knew that others would only think that there was something wrong with Daya and that there was something wrong with the Wang family. This would make it difficult for other children to find a spouse in the future. He was anxious and angry.

Li threw the rag in her hand onto the cutting board with a thud: "She still dares to spread rumors everywhere, she should have her mouth torn apart."

She spoke animatedly, recounting the whole story to Wang Dashan.

After listening, Wang Dashan's attitude immediately softened: "Sanya did the right thing, but we can't let her go around saying bad things about Daya, can we? What should we do now?"

Li was also troubled: "Oh well, we were also at fault in this matter. I'll send two pieces of tofu over as an apology."

Daya's eyes were red: "Mother, let her talk. She can say whatever she wants. She'll quiet down in a couple of days."

The Wang family's emphasis on this marriage exceeded Wang Yiyi's expectations. She originally thought that after this incident, the marriage would either fall through or at least leave the Jiang family hanging for a while. Unexpectedly, they took the initiative to apologize in less than an hour.

She offered, "I'll deliver the tofu; after all, I was the one who kicked them out."

Li was a little worried: "If Wu says something unpleasant again, can you tolerate it?"

Wang Yiyi nodded solemnly: "I will definitely endure it."

Li glanced at Wang Dashan, who nodded: "If we go, the Jiang family will probably get even more arrogant. Sending Sanya will be a way of giving the Jiang family face."

He paused for a moment and then said, "If the Jiang family keeps making trouble, this marriage really won't work... let's just call it off. It's not like I can't afford to raise a daughter."

Wang Yiyi took the tofu wrapped by Li Shi and nodded obediently: "I understand."

Li gave Wang Yi a few more instructions before letting him leave.

After thinking about it, Wang Yi went to find Daya.

"Big sister, I want to do something. I came here to ask you. If you don't agree, I'll obediently deliver the tofu and apologize to the Jiang family."

After a long silence, Daya said, "Go ahead, do whatever you want."

"What if this affects your engagement with the Jiang family?"

"Compared to the marriage agreement with the Jiang family, you and your parents are the most important."

"I see."

Wang Yiyi left the house with a solemn expression. Knowing Da Ya's attitude, she no longer had any worries.

She didn't go directly to the Jiang family, but instead went to the big locust tree in the village. Villagers liked to gather there when they had nothing to do, so it was considered the village's intelligence center. She guessed that Wu should be there at this moment.

She adopted a wronged expression and rubbed her eyes every now and then.

Sure enough, someone with a curious mind stopped her: "Sanya, where are you going?"

Wang Yiyi held up the tofu in her hand: "My mother asked me to deliver it to the Jiang family."

"Hey, your Aunt Jiang is right here, so you don't have to go to the Jiang family anymore." Someone immediately pointed to Wu Shi in the crowd.

Wu had seen Sanya long ago, but she didn't really want to pay attention to her.

Hearing this, he had no choice but to step forward: "I'm right here, just give it to me."

Wang Yi pulled his hand back: "My mother still wants me to apologize to you, and I also need to tell Uncle Jiang and Brother Jiang."

Upon hearing this, Wu simply plopped down again: "Why didn't your mother come? Why didn't your eldest sister come? Why did you send a kid who hasn't even grown up yet? Does this look like you're apologizing?"

Someone nearby advised, "Chengzong's mother, as the saying goes, 'Marry a daughter down, marry a son up.' Sanya has already apologized, so let's just let this matter go."

Some people also suggested that Sanya apologize right there and let everyone witness it, which would be the same thing.

Most of these people were there to watch the spectacle, and Wu's vanity was greatly satisfied. She said to Wang Yi, "It's the same here."

This was exactly what Wang Yiyi wanted to say. She blinked, trying to make her expression look more aggrieved. "I shouldn't have felt resentful when the Jiang family scolded me for not supporting Jiang Chengzong's studies. I shouldn't have gotten angry when Aunt Wu said that my sister didn't give money to the Jiang family. Most importantly, I shouldn't have said that the Jiang family was jealous of my sister's ability, that Jiang Chengzong's education was worthless, and that he just mooches off my family every day."

Wu's face turned pale, then red. "When did I say that?"

Wang Yiyi looked completely innocent: "Auntie, you said that if my eldest sister earns money for Jiang Chengzong, it's out of loyalty and righteousness, but it's shameful to give it to my parents. Am I wrong? Then I apologize to you again, please don't be angry."

The onlookers started discussing it animatedly: "They're not even married yet, the Wang family is really easy prey."

Those who didn't get along with the Jiang family immediately laughed: "I've never heard anyone say that the money they earn can only go to the Jiang family. Tsk tsk tsk, this is the first time I've heard of it. They're already relying on the woman to support them before they're even married. They used to say this was a good match. I wonder who among you would be willing to switch places with the Wang family?"

Wu was so angry that her vision blurred, and she raised her hand to slap Wang Yiyi.

Wang Yiyi stepped aside and put on a pitiful tone: "Please don't hit me. From now on, everything my sister and my parents earn will go to your family. Even if Jiang Chengzong studies his whole life and lives off his wife, our family will support him."

"You little hussy, talking nonsense! I'm going to beat you to death!" Wu was so angry that she was about to chase after Wang Yiyi.

Wang Yiyi wasn't really going to let her hit him. After leading Wu Shi around in circles and making her fall flat on her face several times, she made a quick getaway.

Wu chased after him for a while but gained nothing. Instead, she became so angry that she fainted. Jiang Mantun had to carry her back.
