Chapter 2 Being cheated into marriage

It was just after dusk, the afterglow of the setting sun shone in from the window, and the room was not too dark.

Therefore, he could clearly see the scene in the room and the bride sitting next to him.

Looking at the young and delicate face in front of me, and the big eyes that were darting around uneasily.

Obviously, this is not Zhao Yueru at all.

Xia Yuan felt that his heart ached a little.

In order to bury his parents, his predecessor sold off his land and collected dozens of taels of silver. Later, he suffered a serious illness and spent some of it on medicine and treatment.

Of the remaining silver taels, for this wedding, I spent another ten taels to buy various items as betrothal gifts.

At first glance, it doesn’t seem like much, but you have to remember that this is the Ming Dynasty. According to the memory of the original owner, this year is in the Hongzhi Dynasty. The Hongzhi Dynasty was not only a prosperous and prosperous era, but it was at least a peaceful world. Therefore, Mi

The price is not expensive either. One tael of silver can buy the most common rice for three to four stones.

Converted according to the kilograms of later generations, one stone is about 120 kilograms.

In other words, one tael of silver can buy four to five hundred kilograms of rice.

Then calculate based on the cheapest rice price in later generations, which is two yuan per kilogram of rice.

One tael of silver is equivalent to about eight or nine hundred yuan.

Hey, after calculation like this, ten taels of silver does not seem to be much.

What's more, marrying a daughter-in-law with a fortune of 18,000 yuan is a waste of money.

But the question is, what can you do if you marry such a little kid?

Moreover, it was agreed that the royal sister would become a lolita. This is not a marriage fraud, but a marriage fraud?

The little loli looks like she is less than 1.5 meters tall, with a pair of big clear eyes that are shining, black and bright.

It's just that she is too thin, and even the red wedding dress she is wearing seems a bit ill-fitting.

Her small body is so delicate that a gust of wind can blow her away.

There was still a slight blush on her helpless little face.

Xia Yuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Why are you so shy?

Even though people got married early in ancient times, you look a little too young now. Do you know what getting married is? Also, are you fourteen?

As we all know, the age of fourteen is a dividing line. If you are above the age of fourteen, you will not lose three years, and if you are below the age of fourteen, you will be sentenced to life imprisonment.

"who are you?"

Xia Yuan asked again, his voice becoming a little more serious.

Upon hearing the question, the little girl's body trembled nervously.

"I, I am Zhao Yuerong, my husband's bride"

Her voice is soft and waxy, and she seems to be a little shy, and her voice is also very small.

Zhao Yuerong?

Xia Yuan frowned, feeling that things were not simple. After thinking for a while, he figured out the current situation.

"Are you the daughter brought here by the concubine of the Zhao family?"

"Who asked you to come here? What are you doing here?"

Xia Yuan's tone was a bit doubtful, and inevitably a bit angry. Who would have thought that this special girl would cheat in marriage in ancient times.

However, such a tone made Zhao Yuerong tremble slightly as if he was frightened, and continued in a low voice: "I, I came here to get married. You are my husband, and you married Xiaolizi."

Xia Yuan said nothing and continued to frown, looking at the girl in front of him who called himself Xiaojizi.

Chicken?

In my memory, I heard my father say several years ago that Zhao Fugui had a house of concubines.

This concubine came from a deserted country and was quite pretty. The only flaw she had was that she was carrying a small oil bottle.

Later, the woman died of illness, and the little oil bottle was kept by the Zhao family.

Now it seems that the little bean in front of me is the little oil bottle.

From a relationship perspective, she is Zhao Yueru's stepsister.

Looking at the little girl in front of me who was a little scared, a little nervous, and seemed timid.

Xia Yuan asked: "How old are you this year?"

"fifteen."

Zhao Yuerong bit his lips lightly and responded as loudly as a mosquito.

"Um."

Xia Yuan nodded noncommittally, his eyebrows still furrowed tightly.

What the hell is this fifteen?

Who would believe it?

Does anyone believe it?

I don’t believe it anyway.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuerong lowered his head and looked at his thin body.

Then he looked at Xia Yuan, who was frowning, and realized that he was disliked. After hesitating for a long time, he mustered up the courage to call out in a low voice, "Husband."

"What?"

"I, although I look a little thinner, I am very good at work, and my sister also said that you are a good person, no, you will not dislike me."

After saying that, her two little hands wrung tighter, and her eyes peeked at Xia Yuan nervously.

Xia Yuan almost became angry when he heard this. Damn it, he had traveled to the Ming Dynasty and could actually receive a good guy card.

Moreover, I obviously married a royal sister, but after the marriage, I turned into the thin and skinny girl in front of me, who didn't even feel like she had started to grow.

However, he also roughly understood why this situation occurred. It was simply that his predecessor had an illness that did not improve for more than half a year. Although he could not sense it, he did not feel that his body was weak.

But others don't think so. In their eyes, he is still the young man who may die at any time, so no one will push his daughter into the fire pit.

His father had a relationship with Zhao Fugui, and the two families even had a mutual marriage. The other party was embarrassed to refuse the marriage, so he gave in and married Zhao Yuerong. After all, she was not her biological child, and she became a widow in the future.

Don't feel bad either.

The situation was probably like this, but I didn't know whether it was the original owner's emotions that were causing trouble, or whether Xia Yuan himself felt that he couldn't accept it. He felt a little angry for no reason, and his tone couldn't help but become a little more intense.

"If Zhao Yueru doesn't want to get married, just break off the engagement! Why do you need to play a substitute marriage and let you marry her in her place?"

Facing Xia Yuan's obviously angry questioning, Zhao Yuerong was so frightened that his nose twitched and his body shook pitifully.

My husband is so cruel.

But anyone would be angry if faced with this situation.

She was originally a beautiful bride, but she turned into a skinny bride like herself.

But I don’t want to either.

She pursed her lips and felt a little aggrieved. A few days ago, several people came to the house to discuss her sister's marriage. Her father seemed hesitant, but in the end he accepted the betrothal gift.

Then her sister found her and said that she wanted to marry her on her behalf. She also said that if she didn't agree, she would kick her out of the house and make her a beggar.

She didn't know if she wanted to get married. She only knew that as long as she got married, she wouldn't have to be a beggar.

When the wedding day came today, my sister got herself a wedding dress, put it on, and then put herself on the sedan chair to receive the bride.

"Yes, sorry"

"Is sorry useful?"

"Your family is committing a marriage fraud. If I go to sue the officials, not only will you have to get your bride price back, but your whole family will also be arrested and taken to the government office."

Hearing the words "beat the board", Zhao Yuerong's face clearly showed some fear, and his eyes instantly filled with tears. He sobbed and said: "Sister, sister said that you are sick and you need someone to celebrate the occasion."

Wife, let me marry you.

Sister, sister also said that if I don’t marry you, she will kick me out of the house and make me go out to beg for food.”

Speaking of this, she begged in a low voice: "Husband, husband, can you not sue the officials or drive me back? We are getting married. I am your bride. If you don't want me, I, I, I will pay the betrothal gift."

I can work and return it to you.”

His voice became smaller and smaller, and he still seemed incoherent.

She knew it was wrong to cheat in marriage, but she had no choice. She didn't want to be kicked out and become a beggar. Being a beggar was very miserable and she would starve to death.

Seeing the little girl's panic-stricken face full of tears, Xia Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

The reason why I was a little angry just now was completely an instinctive reaction after being deceived. I didn't want to take my anger out on this little girl. The result was that she was frightened to the point of crying.

What's more, I didn't understand the situation before, but now I understand that there was a reason. This little girl was coerced and she was also a victim, so I couldn't get angry at her anymore.

But the problem is that the promised royal sister-in-law has been replaced by a little bean curd, and she still calls her husband here.

Although in ancient times, when they reached Zhao Yuerong's age, some people even had children.

But this little girl's appearance was really too immature, and frankly speaking, he couldn't do it.

When he thought that this little girl was now his legitimate wife, he felt his head hurt even more.

What should I do with such a little daughter-in-law?
