"That Mo Family is really too much. Not even setting up a table for the daughter's wedding banquet is one thing, but locking people up to demand more dowry is another."
"As the saying goes, it's better to smash ten temples than ruin a single marriage. How could they, as siblings and parents, go this far?"
"Ah, poor Mo Niang. Such a good child, how did she end up with a family like this?"
"This Mo Cheng really is useless. He can't accomplish anything—not even protecting his own sister. He's worse than a pig or a dog."
"That Qian Shi isn't any good either, letting her son ruin her daughter's marriage like this."
...
Hearing the murmured discussions of the surrounding villagers, Shen Qinglan's eyelid twitched.
Dong Cong, outraged, shouted into the courtyard, "You've already accepted the dowry, Mo Family! If you don't intend to give us the daughter, return the dowry to us, and we'll leave!"
