Chapter 393: Stamp It with Our Wang Family’s Mark!
Wang Laozhu didn’t mention anything else; aside from treating sons as superior to daughters at home and being somewhat muddled about so-called family reputation and the future of descendants, he really had nothing negative to say about his behavior toward others.
This series of statements was reasonable and in line with what one would expect from an elder, not displaying any arrogance for having paid out the money, truly not belittling Song Chongjin.
Before Song Chongjin could speak, Wang Yongzhu stood up first, and in front of everyone, took out the silver note of one hundred taels that Song Chongjin had given them privately: "This is the silver note that Song Chongjin paid back to us secretly. This one hundred taels is his own doing; our family hasn’t spent a penny."
Not to mention others, Wang Yonggui and Lady Lin were the first to feel a sense of relief in their hearts.
As long as the silver was returned, everything was negotiable.
Old Granny Zhang’s expression changed for a moment, wanting to say something.
Wang Laozhu was also taken aback, "Then that actually makes things easier. Since you paid the redemption fee yourself, what I just said..."
Song Chongjin hastily stood up respectfully and gave a bow: "As for the matter of cancelling the engagement previously, it was indeed my fault. Now that Uncle is willing to give me this opportunity, I’m too grateful to express it. I... I am willing to become Wang Yongzhu’s live-in son-in-law."
Upon hearing these words, Old Granny Zhang was the first to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Ah, this is wonderful! So wonderful!"
She turned her head to consult with Wang Laozhu: "Old man, what do you think, should we look for an auspicious date and get the wedding arranged as soon as possible?"
