if you are a muslim and your wife is also giving the consent means there is no problem but she is no as muslim as well as she is minor if you take with you her its a offence if she wishes too you cant take with you her. then their parents also cant able to marry to any otherperson before she got 18 if they are make a arrangement you can give the complaint as a 3rd party and stop the marriage that right is you are having if she attained 18 years you can marry her with the consent of your wife

Even though with the consent of your 1st wife you could not marry a minor girl. it's an offense.you should wait upto her age of 18. If you initiate any steps to marry her, leads to criminal action against you by her parents. Hence, be patient it's safe to you. There is no way legally.
