300 Retirement (Medium)
Yueyao gave Ma Peng the gifts and Geng posts given by the Shen family that day, and also packed up the gifts from the Shen family that day.
Ma Peng felt that Yueyao was angry, otherwise he would not have said that the gifts received that day would be sent back. However, Yueyao's behavior won Ma Peng's thoughts. Since you want to withdraw from your family, you have to have the upper hand.
As soon as Ma Peng and his party went out, it began to rain lightly. The fine rain silk weaves a gray curtain between the heavens and the earth, making people's mood more and more depressed.
The gatekeeper saw that Ma Peng was looking for their master, and hurriedly informed the chief housekeeper. The chief butler hurriedly came over and said, "Master Ma, our master and the eldest young master have not come back from the yamen. You wait a moment. ”
Ma Peng sneered: "Tell the person in charge of your family, just say that I am here to withdraw from my family." "Since you want to withdraw from your family, you naturally have to let everyone know.
The chief housekeeper was naturally clear about what was happening in the Shen Mansion, and his face changed greatly when he heard this, this kind of major matter was not something that these servants could decide, and the chief housekeeper immediately asked the lady in charge to inform the Mu family.
The Mu family has also been disgraced in the Su Mansion these days, if it weren't for Su Yuzhen's insistence that she would be a nun if she didn't marry Shen Conghao, the people of the Su family would not have agreed to the Shen family so quickly.
When Mu heard the people below say that Ma Peng came to withdraw from his family, his face immediately changed greatly, "What did you say?" The people of the Ma family are coming to quit their relatives and send the gift back? ”
In the eyes of the Mu family, Yueyao's marriage should naturally be discussed with the Lian family, because the Lian family is the one who really decides. So after getting Lian Dongfang's promise, she felt that this matter was already secure, even if Ma Chengteng drove Shen Congwen out, she didn't care, but she didn't expect the Ma family to come and quit her family. If this is solved like this, when the time comes, she will let people scatter, and it will definitely be solved satisfactorily at that time, but if she withdraws from her family, an ungrateful reputation of climbing the dragon and the phoenix will never be able to run away. Therefore, this marriage with Yueyao must not be withdrawn.
The Mu clan immediately ordered: "Hurry up and invite the master and the eldest young master back." "The person who came was a man, and it was inconvenient for her to receive him.
Shen Qian got the news and hurried back, he thought that this matter had almost been solved, at most the Ma family was making trouble, but how could the Ma family also have a foreign surname, and it was Lian Dongfang who could make the decision, he was ready for the Ma family to make a fuss, but he never expected that the Ma family would not make a fuss, and they would come to the door to withdraw from their relatives.
In fact, according to the etiquette, Shen Qian did nothing wrong. Yueyao is a member of the Lian family, and now that her parents are gone, Lian Dongfang, as an uncle, can completely decide Yueyao's affairs. If the Ma family has objections, they will at most strive for more interests for Yueyao.
Seeing that Shen Qian didn't move, Ma Peng said directly: "Lord Shen, the relatives and Geng Ti are here, and please return Yueyao's Geng Ti to me." "The matchmaker must be present to withdraw from the family, Ma Peng also invited the official media, the matchmaker is now outside the door, as long as Shen Qian agrees, he can return the family at the moment.
Shen Qian quickly calmed down, "Virtuous nephew, it's not a trivial matter to withdraw from your family, this is something I want to talk to Master Ma about." "Ding's relatives and Shen Conghao's Geng post are in Ma Peng's hands, and he can't say that Ma Peng made his own decisions, but this matter is very important, and he can't let the Ma family say anything.
Ma Peng also knew that it was impossible for the Shen family to withdraw happily, he would have to walk in officialdom in the future, and everything would have to occupy a rational word, so he would definitely not offend the Shen family on his face.
Ma Peng has been in officialdom for so long, so he naturally knows how to speak.
Ma Peng said with a heavy face: "Lord Shen, my father was so angry that he fainted yesterday, and the doctor said that he was angry and needed to recuperate for a few days." My father couldn't come, so he told me to come and do it. Ma Peng gave Shen Qian what Yueyao said was her fixed relatives and Shen Conghao's Gengti.
Shen Qian naturally wouldn't take it, Shen Qian said: "I know that this matter has wronged Yueyao, but we are also helpless in this matter, you tell Yueyao and let him rest assured that our Shen family will definitely compensate for what she owes her in the future." ”
Ma Peng sneered in his heart, if he really had the heart, he shouldn't let go of his promise to let the girl of the Su family be his wife, even if he was a wife, he shouldn't make a big fuss, this is obviously bullying Yueyao and no one has to support him, "Lord Shen, you also have a daughter, if your daughter encounters such a thing, what will happen to you?" "This is also bullying my uncle and aunt are not there, if my uncle and aunt are here, how can the Shen family dare to bully Yueyao like this? Fortunately, Yueyao has a strong temperament, if she is weaker and really enters the Shen family, she will be swallowed by these people sooner or later.
Shen Qian also knew that the Shen family was at a loss in this matter, "Virtuous nephew, if there is anything to say, it is impossible to withdraw from relatives." I know that this incident has wronged Yueyao, don't worry, no matter what you ask, as long as we can do it, we will definitely agree. ”
Ma Peng shook his head and said: "Lord Shen misunderstood, it was not my father's idea to withdraw from my family, it was Yueyao herself who wanted to withdraw from my family, and the token of the relatives and the second son, Gengti, were given to me by Yueyao." He and his father can stand up for Yueyao and fight for greater benefits for Yueyao, but because the relatives are involved in the Lian family, they don't have the clear evidence that Yueyao herself put forward. Ma Peng directly said that it was Yueyao's own meaning, which could save a lot of trouble.
Shen Qian's face changed greatly when he heard this, if it was Ma Chengteng or Ma Peng's meaning, there was still room for maneuver in this matter, and if Yue Yao wanted to withdraw from her family, it would be a big trouble.
Shen Qian saw Ma Peng, his face was suspicious, and it was no wonder that Shen Qian was suspicious of Ma Peng, but Shen Qian had never taken Yueyao's own opinions into account. He thought that the Lian family agreed, and the matter of the Ma family would be over, but he never thought that Yueyao would withdraw from his family.
In essence, Shen Qian made the same mistake as the Mu family. That is, he thinks too highly of himself and his son, and never thought that Yueyao would give up this family business. Even now, Shen Qian was still a little skeptical, "You mean, this retreat is what Yue Yao meant, how is this possible?" ”
Ma Peng sneered in his heart when he heard this, what does it mean to be impossible? Do you really think that Shen Conghao is unparalleled in the world? Ma Peng said: "My father originally disagreed, but Yueyao insisted on withdrawing from this marriage, and my father had no choice but to let her own wishes." ”
Shen Qian's face was as ugly as a black-bottomed pot.
Mu said: "Master, I can only ask the people of the Lian family to help with this matter, let the people of the Lian family persuade Yueyao, and let Yueyao not be fooled by the people of the Ma family." "I thought it was a perfect way, but when it happened, there was such a fork, and the Mu family became more and more disgusted with Yueyao.
Shen Qian's face was ugly, if someone else humiliated them like this, he would definitely quit immediately. But because Lian Dongbo had a life-saving grace for him, he had scruples, "This matter must be dealt with as soon as possible, once it spreads, the Shen family's face will be lost." You go see Yueyao. If you can't see Yueyao, you can go to Lian's house and ask Lian's family to help you meet Yueyao. ”
The Mu family went to the Ma family.
Zhuang Ruolan didn't show her face to the Mu family. The Shen family is a big family, and Shen Congwen and Shen Conghao are both people with a future, although Zhuang Ruolan is not ashamed of the Mu family, she doesn't want to offend him. Zhuang Ruolan listened to the intention of the Mu family, and ordered Caiyun in front of the Mu family: "You go and invite your cousin over." ”
In less than two teas, Caiyun returned. Cai Yunfu bowed and said: "Madam, the cousin said that she had no need to see Mrs. Shen, and also said that Mrs. Shen should return her Geng post as soon as possible." "Yue Yao means to quit this family early.
Mu's face turned the color of pig liver, and he left the Ma family with full anger at the moment. Mu Shi said angrily in the carriage: "In the end, it was taught by no father and no mother, there are no rules at all, I knew that this was the case, I shouldn't have promised the master to marry this family affair back then." Mu Shidao still thinks that Yueyao is taking Qiao and is bargaining.
The henchman beside the Mu family was shocked, and when she saw the Mu family like this, she immediately said: "Madam, I'm worried that the girl of the Lian family is determined to withdraw from her family. ”
Mu Shi didn't understand for a moment, "What do you mean by this?" ”
The mother-in-law of the Mu family said: "Madam, I think the attitude of the three girls of the Lian family is very strange. Over the years, our Shen Mansion has also given her several invitations, and our eldest girl is also very kind to her, but this third girl never accepts the post, and she is also very indifferent to our eldest girl. "There is one more thing that this mother-in-law doesn't dare to say, that is, Yueyao is also very indifferent to the Mu family.
Mu is a very shrewd person, but shrewd people sometimes make stupid mistakes, that is, she thinks that her son is the best, even if she is worthy of a princess, it is more than enough. Because of this, she is only 10,000 and can't look down on Yueyao. Once a person falls into a misunderstanding, it is difficult to pull it out, and Mu Shi asked impatiently: "What do you want to say?" ”
This mother-in-law is the confidant of the Mu family, so sometimes even if what she says angers the Mu family, she will still say, "Madam, I think that the three girls of the Lian family should not be playing tricks when they say that they are leaving, she should really want to withdraw from their relatives." Combined with Yueyao's attitude towards the Shen family before, she felt that Yueyao might have wanted to withdraw from her relatives a long time ago. Although this idea is incredible, she thinks it makes the most sense. Otherwise, which girl who is married is not to her future mother-in-law and sister-in-law, who is as cold as Yueyao, unless she doesn't want this marriage at all.
Mu glared at his henchman, "What nonsense are you talking about?" "She is willing to let Yueyao be her son's wife, which is enough to be worthy of Yueyao.
This mother-in-law sighed in her heart, she had already persuaded Madame, and Madame couldn't help it if she didn't listen to her.
The Mu family went to Lian's house and entertained the Peng family. Peng is just Yueyao's sister-in-law, she doesn't have any right to call the shots, so naturally she won't express any opinion on this.
After Lian Dongfang got the news, he patted the table and said: "Nonsense, marriage matters, parents' orders, matchmakers' words, when will it be her turn to make up her mind." ”
Peng's was very worried when he got the news, because Mo was locked up in the small Buddha hall, and Peng was married to the young lady who was in charge, so her life was very good. The only annoyance is that people outside ask about Yueyao from time to time. Peng was not familiar with Yueyao, and what she knew was also said by the servants below.
The personal maid beside Peng's side said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't this embarrassing young lady, master?" Where can the young lady come forward in this matter? "This incident makes it clear that the Shen family bullied the three girls, and even the people of the family didn't come forward to ask for justice for the three girls, and now the three girls themselves want to withdraw from their relatives and still don't allow them, and they want their young ladies to come forward to be wicked, where is there such a thing.
Peng smiled bitterly, "Who else can I find in this besides asking me to come forward?" The Peng family felt that the Shen family was indeed excessive, and it was nothing for the family to choose to compromise because of the power of the Shen family and the Su family, but now that the Ma family is going to give Yue Yao a divorce, even if the Lian family does not stand up for Yue Yao to seek justice, they should not help the Shen family force Yue Yao to compromise. Peng didn't know what his father-in-law thought.
Peng had no choice but to go to Ma's house.
Zhuang Ruolan personally received Peng's. Zhuang Ruolan didn't know that if it weren't for the Peng family's untrustworthiness and repentance, the Peng family would be Ma Peng's wife now. It is precisely because Zhuang Ruolan doesn't know that she doesn't have any bumps about Peng's.
Seeing that Zhuang Ruolan's attitude was so good, Peng felt a little ashamed in her heart, but she still had to do what she had to do, "Mrs. Ma, I want to meet the third sister, do you think it's convenient?" ”
Zhuang Ruolan asked Yahuan to invite Yueyao over, turned her head and said to Peng: "It's a shame that our aunt also saved Shen Qian's life, and now he is bullying Yueyao so much, which is really ungrateful." ”
Peng Shi was shocked, "Mrs. Ma is saying that our second master has a life-saving grace for Lord Shen?" "Peng didn't know about it. The fact that Lian Dongbo saved Shen Qian's life was not widely publicized, and not many people knew about it.
Zhuang Ruolan also wanted to take the initiative and save Peng's help to persuade anything. Since the Shen family wants to do such a thing, they naturally have to pay for this matter.
Yue Yao was not surprised at all when she heard that Peng was coming, Lian Dongfang was that kind of person, so it was completely expected that she would not be allowed to withdraw from her family, but this matter was not decided by Lian Dongfang.
Peng was a little surprised when he saw Yueyao coming in, and it was normal to say that the person concerned should be very sad about such a big thing as quitting his family, but Yueyao was as calm as water, not to mention sad, her eyes were not red and swollen.
Yue Yao gave a salute and said lightly: "Sister-in-law is fine." "Peng's is still the same as Yueyao remembers, and it hasn't changed much.
Peng stood up and helped Yueyao, "The third sister is polite." ”
Because it was the first time for Peng to see Yueyao, he gave Yueyao the skein gold bracelet in his hand as a greeting gift, and Yueyao did not shirk and accepted Peng's gift.
Zhuang Ruolan said on the side: "Yueyao, even the young lady is here to talk about your resignation. "This should be solved as soon as possible, and the more it is delayed, the more troublesome it will be.
Yue Yao's face was pale, "What did the eldest uncle say?" "In fact, you don't need to ask Yueyao to know that he must have agreed to Shen Conghao's marriage to a flat wife, and he can take the opportunity to sell a good one to the Shen family and the Su family, how could he object.
Peng Shi looked at Yueyao's elegant manners and moderation, and sighed secretly in his heart, such a good child, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing. Peng pondered in his heart for a moment before he spoke: "Third sister, my father-in-law means that this family business cannot be retreated. Third sister, the people of the Shen family said that this matter made you feel wronged, and they will definitely repay you twice in the future. ”
A sneer slipped across the corner of Yue Yao's mouth, "Double the repayment?" The Shen family is nothing more than bullying me, having no father, no mother, and no support, so I dare to be so fearless. An ungrateful, I am ashamed to marry into his family. ”
Peng's face froze, she didn't expect Yueyao's attitude to be so resolute. Peng said cautiously: "I know that the third sister has been wronged in this matter, do you think this is good, I will go and discuss with the Shen family again, the two ends of the same big matter will never be calculated." Third sister, if the Shen family agrees to our request, do you think we should also take a step back? "Peng's meaning is that Yueyao is the main room, and Su Yuzhen is the flat wife. This is also the result of Peng's careful consideration. No matter what, the second son of the Shen family hugged the girl of the Su family and ruined Miss Su's innocence, except for marrying the second son of the Shen family, Miss Su had no other way out. Therefore, Yueyao must give in.
Yue Yao said softly: "Sister-in-law, I want to ask you a question, if this matter is changed to your sister, will you persuade your sister like this?" ”
The corners of Peng's mouth twitched, and finally he didn't speak.
Yue Yao was too lazy to bother about this matter, and directly stated her attitude, "Please tell my uncle, I don't care if he agrees or not, I must return this family matter." The Shen family got my father's great favor that day, and they also took the initiative to put forward this family matter, and now seeing that my father and mother are gone, and there is no backer, they are so bullying me, such an ungrateful and ruthless family, I would rather be accompanied by the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha for a lifetime than never marry. ”
Peng was shocked by Yue Yao's words.
Yue Yao saluted the Peng family and Zhuang Ruolan, and then took Xiang Wei and the others to prepare to leave.
Peng Shi watched Yue Yao prepare to leave, and immediately shouted, "Third sister, wait a minute." ”
Yueyao turned around and saw Peng's hesitant expression, "Sister-in-law, what's the matter?" ”
Peng's didn't plan to talk about the Shen family anymore, Yueyao's attitude was already very obvious, and it was boring to say it again, Peng's called Yueyao to stop Yueyao, because he wanted Yueyao to go back to Lianfu, "The third sister has been away from home for more than four years, and the second sister and the fourth sister have always been very worried about you." ”
Yueyao naturally saw that Peng's wanted her to go back, but she was out of the door of Lian's house, and she would never go back, "Second Sister Lao is worried about the fourth sister!" I'll go back when I have time. ”
How could Peng not see Yue Yao's perfunctory attitude, she couldn't do anything but smile bitterly in her heart, and after Yue Yao left, Peng also said goodbye and left.
Zhuang Ruolan sent Peng away, and when she went back, she looked at the picture of Guanyin hanging in the bedroom, and Zhuang Ruolan sighed heavily.
Peng got into the carriage, and the maid next to her said, "I didn't expect the third girl to have such a big temperament? "This matter is the fault of the Shen family, but the third girl has no father and mother, and she has lost such a good family business, and she will not be able to find such a good family business in the future.
Peng smiled bitterly: "If she doesn't have such a big temperament, how can she leave Lian's house for four years and not come back, so that Lian's family will become a talking point in the capital." Don't think she's an orphan girl and has no support, she still has her uncle and eldest cousin to rely on! "This time, even the family did not come forward, but the Ma family came forward, which shows that the people of the Ma family really want to protect Yueyao.
Yahuan was silent for a while and then said, "Young lady, what should we do?" ”
Peng shook his head and said, "Tell my father-in-law what the third girl said truthfully." "Yueyao's reputation is growing, and even the pressure on her family is increasing. She really wanted to repair the relationship with Yueyao, but Yueyao didn't seem to mean it.
Yahuan was a little worried, "The master said that the girl who can't even leave her family is a girl." ”
Peng did not speak. If it is useful for her father-in-law, where will Yueyao live in Mafu for more than four years and not return to Lian's house. In fact, the father-in-law can't help the three girls at all.
When Lian Dongfang heard Yueyao's words, he was so angry that he almost went to the door to find Yueyao. However, he was stopped by Tingli, "Dad, we must not help the Shen family in this matter anymore." "If you let the outside know that they are helping the Shen family bully their own family, they will definitely lose face at that time.
Lian Dongfang took a deep breath and said, "Since she wants to withdraw from her family, as long as she doesn't cry and regret it in the future." ”
