Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 261: Chapter 261: Boss Jiang’s Skills

Ho Laidi muttered, ”How would I know that your grandfather had arranged a marriage for you without saying anything? Can you blame me for this misunderstanding?” Her gaze once again fell upon the one hundred dollars on the bed.

Song Xiyun also unconsciously drew nearer to this side.

At that moment, Meng Xinian snorted, and both women were shaken by it.

”The betrothal gifts I’ve given should be considered the highest standard in Peace Town, shouldn’t they?”

Now it was Liu Pei’s turn to speak, as her daughter had only recently married, and she had previously inquired about the customary betrothal and bride prices in and around the town. Anyway, none of the wealthy families in the town have given such high-standard betrothal gifts.

”Indeed, they are.”

Meng Xinian glanced at the people from Old Chiang Family again with an indifferent tone, ”I’ve offered such a high betrothal gift because Little Little deserves it. Since she is now my fiancée, she will be under my protection from now on. Anyone who wants to harm her will need to offer a compensation as high as this gift for us to sit down and talk. But if they can’t afford it, they better be careful, for I won’t let anyone off easily if they hurt even a hair on her.”

Chiang Xiao wanted to roll her eyes.

Brother Xinian, are you saying that as long as someone has money, they can freely bully me?

Meng Xinian read her expression and knew that the girl had again misunderstood.

”Silly girl, whom do you think those words are meant for? Is there anyone wealthy here?”

His remarks were directed at the people from Old Chiang Family.

Those from Old Chiang Family would probably not take it to heart if he spoke too much dignified and majestic jargon, so only when money was involved could they weigh its significance properly, for their minds were not sufficient!

In the future, if they wanted to bully Chiang Xiao, surely the image of this necklace, this one hundred dollars, would subconsciously come to mind.

Dealing with these kinds of people requires such vulgarity.

Comparing with money makes a deeper impression on them.

Chiang Xiao instantly understood his point and, while sweating, realized that Meng Xinian was not someone to be trifled with.

At this stage, it became awkward for the others to continue watching.

Who couldn’t see who was wronged here?

The groom’s betrothal gifts had to be turned inside out for one to prove their innocence!

Chiang Songtao snorted, glared at Ho Laidi, and demanded, ”What are you still doing here? Isn’t someone needed to take care of Baohe? Baoguo’s Wife, you go too!”

Ho Laidi, looking somewhat displeased, grabbed Song Xiyun and left, grumbling and cursing as she dragged her out.

Then, Chiang Songtao turned to Meng Xinian, his expression softened and he even showed a somewhat benign smile, speaking to Meng Xinian in a gentle tone, ”Little Meng, your auntie acts impulsively and speaks without thinking; she means no harm. Since you’ve already made a betrothal with our Little Little, you’re family from now on. You can call me ’Uncle Grandfather’ with Little Little.”

He then pointed at Chiang Baoguo and continued, ”This is your Big Uncle, and the young lady earlier is your Big Uncle’s Wife. Your Second Uncle is also in the hospital; someone hurt him last night, and he’s in a bad state. If you’re not busy, come and see him later. Being a soldier, perhaps you can help investigate who harmed your Second Uncle last night. Your Big Uncle and I will go up first.”

With that, he gave Chiang Baoguo a look.

”What father said is right, so let’s do that. We’ll go up first. Little Meng, come up later,” said Chiang Baoguo, following Chiang Songtao as he also left.

Chiang Xiao stood with her mouth agape, utterly dumbfounded.

Ge Dejun, Xu Linjiang, and the others exchanged glances.

They truly felt inferior to such ability!
