Chapter 297: Marrying the Mountain God 19
Seeing that there was no room for him to develop his ideas, Gu Jiande took a deep breath and was glad that his son was smart and did not come to Taohua Village with him.
The people in Taohua Village are so barbaric that they don't even give people a chance to speak.
Finally, Gu Jiande bowed to the village chief with a stern face, "I'm sorry, it's my fault for not disciplining you properly that I hurt you, I will make it up to you. As for the specific compensation, I want to sit down and discuss it with the village chief!"
village head:-----
Don't take advantage of the bastard.
The village chief dismissed the onlookers and took Gu Jiande and his family back to his home.
Gu Li and her husband, one of the parties involved, also went along.
This is the third time I have come to the village chief's house today.
The two brothers who had been fighting were no longer at home. Only Shitou's wife served tea to a few people and then returned to the kitchen.
Seeing that his foolish approach was futile, Gu Jiande simply got straight to the point, "Village Chief, I can compensate you, but I want Gu Li to come back with me!"
"What! I don't agree. Gu Li is already a member of my Lian family. No one can stop her!" Lian's mother stood in front of Gu Li.
Gu Jiande only looked at the village chief.
Unfortunately, the village chief is not a money-grubbing person. He shook his head and said, "These are two different things. Besides, I am just the village chief and I cannot interfere in your family affairs. But I advise you that if you marry into Taohua Village, you are a member of Taohua Village. You cannot take her away just because you want to."
Gu Li took a deep look at the old village chief whose face was covered in bloodstains but did not block his wisdom, and felt warm in her heart. Just because of what the village chief said, she would definitely not treat him badly when she became rich in the future.
Gu Li rubbed her hungry stomach again, but she also wanted to get rich quickly! She cast her eyes to Gu Jixia who appeared at the side without knowing when, wondering why this family wanted her to go back.
Most likely it is related to Gu Jixia.
Gu Jiande saw that this approach was not feasible, "Then let Gu Li give me a bloody handprint!"
"No, why do you want her to put her fingerprints on it? Do you want to sell my daughter-in-law?" Lian Mu was like a furious lioness. If Gu Li hadn't stopped her, she would have poked her fingers into Gu Jiande's face.
The village chief sighed, "Lian family, don't get excited, listen to what he has to say first!" He turned to look at Gu Jiande, "Why did Yun Shen's wife press her bloody handprint?"
Gu Jiande was reluctant and hesitated for a while before taking out something that looked like tree bark from his arms and handing it to the village chief.
The village chief opened his eyes wide and looked, "Marriage certificate?" The words below were small and blurry, and the village chief could not see clearly.
Gu Jiande treasured the marriage contract that looked like old tree bark and explained, "This was left by Huang Daxian who came to my house this morning to deliver pheasants. He said that the mountain god of Lingyun Mountain wanted to marry my daughter to be the mountain mother!"
The village chief scratched his ears, and his wife widened her eyes and her jaw almost dropped.
Lian's mother didn't want to meddle in other people's business. "But what does this have to do with you coming to my house to cause trouble?"
Gu Jiande glanced at Gu Li and said, "Gu Li's name is written on the marriage certificate!"
"what?"
"Gu Li has already married into the Lian family."
Gu Jiande was speechless, but he knew it very well. It was just one day away. If he could keep Gu Li for one more night, he would be the father-in-law of the mountain god now, and there would be no need for him to sit here and try to please others.
This morning, Wong Tai Sin came to deliver a chicken again, just like yesterday, but after rolling his eyes around, he took the chicken and left.
Perhaps because it walked too fast, a marriage certificate fell from the weasel.
Gu Jiande could not read a single word, but Gu Jiazu happened to be at home. He read the contents of the marriage certificate and then suggested a marriage exchange.
Gu Li's name was written on the marriage certificate, so they used a knife to scrape off Gu Li's name and wrote Gu Jixia's name instead. The same thing would happen when they married Gu Jixia off.
Anyway, they have done this kind of thing more than once.
Easy to drive.
What they didn't expect was that the words on the marriage certificate seemed to have magic power and could not be scraped off no matter how hard they tried. Just when they were at a loss, the weasel came back to look for the lost marriage certificate.
He squeaked and gestured for a long time, but didn't understand anything.
Then the weasel found a mynah bird, which said that Gu Li had saved the mountain god's life. To repay the favor, the mountain god wanted to marry Gu Li and share the people's worship and a thousand-year life with her.
Everyone in the Gu family was excited and wished they could take his place.
Unfortunately, the mountain god always wanted Gu Li who had saved him.
The mynah bird also said that for this marriage certificate to take effect, Gu Li must agree and press her blood fingerprint on the marriage certificate.
"But I'm already married!" Gu Li emphasized.
The thing she feared most finally happened!
"You haven't consummated your marriage yet, so the marriage doesn't count!" Gu Jiande said shamelessly.
Gu Li shuddered. The mountain god even said this condition?
Is it possible for a mountain god who protects the peace of the people to say such words?
The snake was very keen on that matter and attached great importance to his wife's chastity.
The reason why she married herself off early and agreed to her mother's request to go to prison to consummate the marriage was to avoid this.
But, that thing didn't even let her go even though she was already married.
Gu Li raised her neck and said, "I am a member of the Lian family in life and a ghost of the Lian family in death."
After he finished speaking, Gu Jiande and the Fang mother and daughter all breathed a sigh of relief. Even Lian's mother, who was standing next to Gu Li, breathed a sigh of relief.
For the first time, the two opposing parties agreed on the same issue.
It's fine as long as she doesn't want to!
"In this case, we can't waste this engagement. I thought that my eldest daughter has reached the age of marriage, so she will marry the mountain god in place of Gu Li." Gu Jiande said to the village chief.
Gu Jixia lowered her head in embarrassment, acting shy.
"I don't agree!" Gu Li said, "Since the mountain god is here to repay me, I don't need a marriage contract. I just need the mountain god to give me some other compensation."
Gu Li, who is full of rebelliousness, just doesn't want Gu Jiande's family to be proud.
Gu Jiande's temples were throbbing non-stop. He really wondered if she was hiding in the dark and eavesdropping when the mynah bird spirit was talking.
Yes, the starling bird did say that the mountain god would repay her by either giving her rare treasures or entering into a marriage contract with it and enjoying the worship of a demigod.
I believe that anyone with a brain knows how to choose.
As long as you become the wife of the mountain god, there are so many good things you can get, and you can also share your life with the mountain god. It's like pie in the sky!
But Guli, this unfilial daughter, just likes to go against him.
Fang, who had paused for a while, interrupted like an indestructible cockroach: "You stole your sister's marriage to the Lian family, and now you are using your marriage to compensate her. What's wrong with that?"
After all, she had been slapped so many times that Fang spoke weakly at the moment and could not cause any harm to Gu Li.
"You are talking nonsense. The one who was engaged to my son from the beginning to the end was Ah Li. It was you, a black-hearted person, who interfered and changed the engagement letter. You are confusing right and wrong. This is really too much!"
