Shu Yu looked at Zhang Shu. The latterâs face was gloomy and unwilling, but this time, he did not refute.
...
Village Chief Yan also heaved a sigh of relief. Fan Zhong raised his hand and said to the back of the crowd, âScholar Tang, please help me write the divorce document and let them put their fingerprints on the document.â
âAlright,â Tang Wenqian walked forward and bowed to the two village chiefs. Then, he found a table and put down the book basket on his back. After that, he took out a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone and began to write. Shu Yu was speechless. So he was not here to watch the show.
She had been too narrow-minded.
Tang Wenqianâs handwriting was good. It was fast and neat. It didnât take long for him to finish the document.
After blowing the ink dry, he handed the document to Fan Zhong, who then handed it to Village Chief Yan.
Not many of the villagers present could read, and even the two village chiefs could not recognize all of the characters.
On the other hand, Shu Yu took it and read it out loud, âThe reason for being a husband and wife is that they were fated in their previous lives⊠Since they have two different hearts⊠From now on, they will be two separate families and will not have anything to do with each other.â
His words were quite tactful. If Shu Yu had been the one to write it, she would have definitely written down the reason for Zhang Shuâs divorce.
But forget it, this was written by Scholar Tang anyway. To be honest, this divorce document was biased toward Daya.
Shu Yu handed the divorce document to Daya, âSister, put your fingerprint on it. From now on, youâll be free.â
Daya was stunned. Free⊠Just like that?
She took a deep breath and pressed down heavily.
Shu Yu then handed the document to Zhang Shu. The latter raised his head gloomily and glared at her fiercely.
Shu Yu smiled, âHurry up, donât delay. Everyone still has to rush back to eat. Because of your trivial matter, many people are still hungry and havenât even had lunch.â
The villagers of Shangshi Village immediately agreed, âThatâs right, thatâs right. Why are you dilly-dallying? Whatâs wrong? Do you think of yourself as a woman because you like men? Why are you so fussy?â
Zhang Shu closed his eyes. Under the same blaming gazes of the Zhang family, he finally put his fingerprint on the document unwillingly.
Finally, the document was finally handed to Fan Zhong. The latter nodded after reading it, âIâll file it with the government tomorrow. From now on, Zhang Shu and Daya will be complete strangers. In the future, I hope that the Zhang
family will not come looking for trouble with us. Otherwise, the Shangshi Village will not forgive you.â
Zhang Shu raised his red eyes and suddenly laughed. He was as vicious as a poisonous snake as he slowly said, ââŠAlright, I promise that I wonât find trouble with Daya.â
These words made everyoneâs heart tremble, and they had an inexplicable bad feeling.
Zhang Shu wouldnât go crazy because of this and do something harmful, right?
Fan Zhong frowned and immediately said, âSince the matter is settled, letâs go.â
Just as he finished speaking, another voice sounded, âWait a minute.â
Everyone was stunned and looked at Tang Wenqian.
Fan Zhong found it strange but still asked amiably, âScholar Tang, are there any other problems?â
He was still very respectful to the scholar and spoke very gently.
Tang Wenqian stood up and straightened his back, âSince they are going to divorce, the betrothal gifts and dowry should be returned to each of them.â Shu Yu looked at him in surprise.
Tang Wenqian cupped his hands at Village Chief Yan, âThis is the proper procedure for a divorce.â
He was a scholar and was well-versed in poetry, books, and etiquette. What could Village Chief Yan say?
He looked at the Zhang family, âWhereâs Dayaâs dowry?
