Chapter 4 No more connection

Seeing that Fatty Song finally told him about breaking off the engagement, although Zhou Zhong had been prepared for it, he still wanted to punch the fat face in front of him. In the general environment of the Ming Dynasty, if an engaged woman was betrayed by someone,

For this woman, breaking off the engagement is not much different from being divorced. It will be difficult to marry a better family in the future. In other words, if the Song family breaks off the engagement this time, if there are no accidents,

He almost ruined Zhuo'er's life. As the elder brother, how could Zhou Zhong not hate this?

However, after experiencing life and death, Zhou Zhong's temperament became much calmer. He knew that some things could not be solved with fists alone, so although he was furious in his heart, he did not show it at all.

This time Zhou Zhong did not answer in a hurry, and he was not in the mood to act with Fatty Song again. Instead, he raised his brows and relaxed all of a sudden. He turned to Butler Xu next to him and said, "Butler Xu, I'm a little tired.

Go help me move something I can sit on!"

The Song family father and son also felt a change in Zhou Zhong's temperament. The bankrupt young man who had no choice before suddenly disappeared. What appeared in front of them was a man with a slight smile on his face, and even a hint of scorn.

Young Master Zhou.

Butler Xu was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Min's instructions, but he immediately reacted and quickly ran out and brought in a broken deck chair. This deck chair was Butler Xu's favorite, and he usually liked to lie on it and bask in the sun because it was too

I couldn't sell it, so now I can barely let Zhou Zhong take a rest.

Zhou Zhong didn't care whether the recliner was broken or not. He strode over and sat down on the recliner. He crossed his legs and looked up at the Song family and his son. He said, "Master Song wants to break off the engagement. I agree. Our Zhou family

In this situation, you are really not worthy of the Song family. In addition, according to the rules, our Zhou family will also return the betrothal gifts and marriage certificates from your Song family!"

Seeing such a big change in Zhou Zhong in front of them, Master Song and Second Young Master Song were a little overwhelmed. However, Master Song was a well-informed businessman after all, and he quickly reacted and said with a smile on his face.

: "Forget about the betrothal gift, just return the marriage certificate to us. With the current situation of the Zhou family, if we ask for any more betrothal gift, I would really not be able to bear it."

In fact, it's not that Mr. Song didn't want to repay the bride price. When they got engaged, they also paid a large sum of money for the bride price. However, Zhou Zhong's changes just now made him very uneasy, so he gave up the gift so generously.

, and shamelessly put gold on his dark and fat face.

Zhou Chong, who was sitting on the recliner, was not angry at all after hearing this. He now missed the cigarettes of later generations. If he could hold a cigarette on his finger now, then take a nice puff and blow out a smoke ring,

That would be more impressive.

With the emotion of not having a cigarette, Li Min glanced sideways at the Song family and his son again, then knocked on the armrest of the chair and said with a smile: "How can that be done? If you break off the engagement, you must look like you are breaking off the engagement. Our Zhou family must return the bride price.

, In addition, there are debts owed by the Song family, which will be repaid together with the betrothal gift!"

Seeing Zhou Zhong's rude look, coupled with the words that were seriously inconsistent with his expression, both the Song family's father and son felt uncertain. They couldn't figure out what the young master of the Zhou family in front of them meant?

At this time, Zhou Zhong continued: "It's just that our Zhou family's current situation means that we really can't afford to pay it off all at once. But don't worry, I, Zhou Zhong, am definitely not someone who refuses to repay my debts. I plan to pay them off every year."

Repaying the previous part is called installment repayment. It will probably take ten or eight years to repay it, and then the marriage certificate will be returned to you!"

Hearing Zhou Zhong's last scoundrel words, the Song family's father and son's noses almost became angry. Apart from anything else, the second young master Song is about the same age as Zhou Zhong. Originally, he and Zhuo'er were planning to get married next year.

After ten or eight years of waiting for the engagement to be broken off, who will he marry then?

"Zhou Zhong, don't bully others too much!" The second young master of the Song family was young and energetic. His white face turned red with anger. He stood up and pointed at Zhou Zhong and scolded, but he never thought about who was bullying others too much.

?

"Too much bullying?" Zhou Zhong raised his head and glanced at the second young master Song across from him, with a mean smile on his face and said, "Where did the second young master Song start from talking about this? The Song family proposed to break off the engagement, and I, Zhou,

Zhong agreed without saying a word, and was even willing to return the gift money to you, so how come you have now become a bully for me?"

"You..." Second Young Master Song wanted to argue a few words, but Master Song reached out to stop him. Then the fat man Song Hei suddenly showed a smile and said, "I understand what Young Master Zhou said. Do you think this will work?"

, we don’t want the debt owed by the Zhou family to our family, and we don’t need to refund the betrothal gifts or anything else, our Song family only needs a marriage certificate!"

Hearing Master Song's words, Zhou Zhong turned his head and spat, suddenly stood up with a smile and said: "Sure enough, Jiang is still old and hot. If Master Song had just hit the road like this, wouldn't there be so much nonsense?

"

Seeing Zhou Zhong behaving like such a scoundrel, both the Song family and his son were very angry, but they were also wondering in their hearts. In the past, Zhou Zhong was polite and even a bit dull when he read. Why did the Zhou family just show up now?

Something unexpected happened, Zhou Zhong turned out to be like a gangster on the street?

It's a pity that Song and his son didn't know that Zhou Zhong in his previous life was much more ruthless than the gangsters. However, he cherished this rare rebirth and didn't want to follow the same path in his previous life, so he played "gentle" with them.

Otherwise, according to his temperament in his previous life, he would probably touch the Song family mansion tonight and leave an unforgettable lesson to the father and son!

Of course, although the current Zhou Zhong will not use more violent means to retaliate, it does not mean that he is weak. Zhou Zhong, who has learned to hide his anger in his heart, is definitely more terrifying than the hot-tempered Zhou Zhong in his previous life. As for him,

Freeing the Song family from debt is just a small interest charge.

The next thing will be simple. The Song family father and son are eager to cancel the marriage. If Zhou Zhong insists on refusing to go to the Yamen to sue them, according to Ming Dynasty law, it will be a sure thing. Now that Zhou Zhong has made it clear that he wants them

The debt of two hundred taels was forgiven. Although two hundred taels was not a small amount, it was a big advantage for the Song family to be able to cancel the marriage without any further trouble.

Master Song has been in the shopping mall for many years, but he can still settle the account, so he suppressed the anger in his heart, took out the IOU from the Zhou family in his arms and said: "Okay! Master Zhou actually said this, then Song will

Please be happy, this is your Zhou family’s IOU, please get my son’s marriage certificate, and our two families will be settled, and we will have nothing to do with each other from now on!”

Zhou Zhong saw the IOU in the other party's hand, and asked Butler Xu to come forward to verify that it was correct. Then he motioned for him to go to the back to get the marriage certificate, and then said in a disgusting tone: "Song Shishu is indeed a generous person.

, is really a role model for the younger generation like me. However, if the young lady from the wealthy businessman in Huating dislikes the son, and the Song family wants to go back and marry the younger sister, it will be a bit troublesome. Maybe my younger sister will even have children by then.

Well, I hope Uncle Song won’t blame me when the time comes!”

Hearing the irony in Zhou Zhong's words, Master Song gritted his teeth angrily. He wanted to laugh at Zhou Zhong, but Master Song stopped him with his hand. In comparison, Master Song, who had a black face, looked arrogant.

There were many palaces in the city, and he didn't seem to be angry at Zhou Zhong's words. He just said in a calm tone: "The child's marriage is our Song family's business, and there is no need for nephew Zhou to worry about it!"

Seeing that the other party didn't seem angry, Zhou Zhong was also a little disappointed. Soon Butler Xu brought the marriage certificate. Zhou Zhong took the marriage certificate and exchanged the IOU with Mr. Song. Then the two of them tore up the documents in their hands almost at the same time. From then on, the two families

It had nothing to do with it anymore. It's just that Zhou Zhong didn't notice when he was tearing up the IOU, but Butler Xu next to him had a strange expression on his face.

After tearing up the marriage contract, the Song father and son turned around and left the Zhou family mansion. However, just as they walked out of the house, the second young master Song could no longer bear to complain to his father: "Father, why did you stop me just now?"

, Zhou Chong is just a prodigal at best. With the Zhou family’s current family situation, he still wants to marry off his sister. I guess he will marry a mud-legged man at most. I don’t want that kind of bitch!”

Hearing his son's complaint, Mr. Zhou's face began to look a little ugly, but in the end he still suppressed his anger and said: "Do you think I am willing to be angry with that prodigal son? However, although our Song family is rich, there is no backer behind it.

But not hard. Even though the Zhou family is down now, Zhou Zhong is still the prospective son-in-law of Mr. Wang Lun. Mr. Wang was a censor of the capital, although he was dismissed from office because he offended Eunuch Liu, the leader of the Eight Tigers.

, but Mr. Wang still has many close friends in the court, and with the strength of our Song family, we cannot afford to offend Mr. Wang for the time being!"

When the second young master Song heard his father's explanation, he immediately turned pale with fright and said: "Dad, since we can't afford to offend Mr. Wang, why should we cancel the Zhou family's marriage? What if Zhou Zhong takes advantage of Mr. Wang's reputation?

If we make a comeback, wouldn’t our family be in danger?”

After hearing his son's words, Mr. Song showed a mysterious smile and said, "Didn't I just say that our Song family can't afford to offend Mr. Wang for the time being, but now that Eunuch Liu is at the height of his power, Mr. Song and a group of people submitted a letter together?

Eunuch Liu was impeached and was dismissed from office. Although Eunuch Liu himself may not remember Mr. Song, a 'little man', the people under Mr. Liu have not forgotten him. I have received definite information. Some people want to use the names of Mr. Wang and others.

If we go to please Eunuch Liu with our heads, it is estimated that Mr. Wang’s good days will not be long. If we still have relations with the Zhou family by then, wouldn’t we be on the road to death?”

Hearing his father's words, the Second Young Master Song was also extremely shocked. He did not expect that the break-up of the engagement would be involved in a fight in the court, and even be related to the very popular Eunuch Liu. This was beyond his imagination.

At the same time, the second young master Song also admired his father even more. No wonder everyone said, "Ginger is the hottest when he is old." Anyone in the Song family can be missing, but he cannot be missing his father.

In addition, Second Young Master Song suddenly thought that if his father told him such a secret, does that mean that his father trusts him more? Although he has an older brother above him, his older brother is honest.

He is dull and not the type to do business at all. If he inherits the family business in the future, won't the Song family pay for it?
