Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "So, you chose my Shu family?" ”

Miss Cai nodded a little embarrassed, if she had bitten Cai to death before because she liked Shu Manyu and came to propose marriage, maybe there was still some possibility of this family business, but now she told the truth, and it was confirmed that the Cai family wanted to use the Shu family, and this family business was probably gone.

It's just that how can she bear to watch others misunderstand her eldest brother? The eldest brother is not the kind of prodigal son who seduces other people's little girls, and he is not a straw bag who only thinks about climbing high branches without learning and skills......

"In that case, why don't you choose a family to marry? King Lejun has taken a fancy to you, if you don't marry for a day, he won't give up for a day, even if your brother marries Manyu, we don't care about your business, King Lejun will still come to your house to hire, but maybe the name will be different, this time, he will probably look at the face of the Shu family and give you the position of a side concubine. Shu Manyao looked at Miss Cai with some doubts: "I think you are also smart, and your eldest brother is not stupid, why don't you solve this matter from the root?" ”

Even if the Cai family's plan succeeded, the Shu family and the Cai family became in-laws, so the Shu family couldn't help the Cai family's relatives, although the king of Lejun was only a clan king, but he was also a relative of the emperor, why did the Shu family want to stand up for a Cai girl who had nothing to do with it?

Not only Shu Manyao was curious, but the old lady and Cheng were also a little curious. Miss Cai's face suddenly turned red, she bit her lip, lowered her head and said, "Actually, the Shu family didn't agree to the Cai family's marriage proposal, on the other hand, because I haven't been married, right?" ”

Shu Manyao nodded without hesitation: "Indeed, you are also on the one hand, your reputation is not very good, and our family is also worried that after Manyu marries into the Cai family, she will meet a difficult sister-in-law." ”

"The reason why I don't marry is because I was engaged to someone five years ago." Miss Cai hesitated for a while, but still said it, Shu Manyao frowned: "But, in the early years, weren't you engaged to the Wang family?" ”

Miss Cai smiled helplessly: "It is because of this that my father did not contact the Wang family, and I also wanted to take the responsibility of retiring from the marriage on myself, so I let my mother and second sister practice my reputation." ”

"You start from the beginning." The old lady waved her hand and looked at the eldest girl of the Cai family with a calm face, at first she thought that the Cai family was just a bad character, but now it seems that it is simply broken from the root, the brother and sister are such people, the Cai family is really ......

"My relationship with the Wang family was decided by my mother. At that time, my mother was seriously ill, and I knew that my father would continue to play in the future, and I was afraid that my mother would treat me and my brother badly, and my brother was a man in the end, even if the woman he married in the future was not very good, he could live his life, but I was a girl's family, if I married someone else, my whole life would be ruined. ”

Miss Cai pursed her lips, so far, I'm afraid that the eldest brother's marriage can't be done, since it can't be done, just like what my father said, it's better to tell the tray, even if the two families can't be in-laws, they can't let the eldest brother carry such a black pot by himself. Reputation is a small thing, anyway, with her, the reputation of the Cai family is not very good.

is afraid that the Shu family will hinder the future of the eldest brother, and now that the truth is told, the Shu family is unwilling to forgive them for the Cai family, for the sake of their frankness, they will definitely not embarrass the Cai family too much.

After all, compared with the Cai family, the Shu family is too open.

"Coincidentally, my mother and Mrs. Wang have a good relationship on weekdays, and Mrs. Wang's youngest son looks like a smart and clever person, so I set up a baby kiss for me and Wang Qingheng."

"The Wang family is rich, if I marry in the past, I will not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of my life, and with Mrs. Wang here, I will definitely not be offended. A few years ago, my father and the Wang family were also in contact from time to time. But later, my father inquired about something, although Wang Qingheng is a smart person, but his ears are very soft, he is a young son, and Mrs. Wang is too pampered, so the maids around him are all ......"

In the end, when she didn't get married, Miss Cai talked about these things, her face was red and unpresentable, up to Mrs. Shu, down to Shu Manyao, it can be said that she has seen a lot of this kind of thing, and her heart suddenly became clear.

The maids in Wang Qingheng's room are not only beautiful, but also capable.

Sure enough, Miss Cai's next sentence said the key point: "In one year, the maids in Wang Qingheng's room were replaced twice, my father also served as an official in Jiangnan, and he also had some connections, and only after this inquiry did he know that the maids who were replaced were because they had a body, and the Wang family's family rules were very strict, and no eldest son was allowed to be born, so those maids were ......"

What is the fate of this kind of maid who seduces the master, there is no need for Miss Cai to say it carefully. Immediately, Shu Manyao thought of Wang Qingheng's age, eighteen this year, five years ago, wasn't Wang Qingheng only thirteen years old? In this way, people can be killed, and Wang Gongzi is too powerful, right? Moreover, when I met him last year, I didn't find out that he was such a person.

On the contrary, I think that Wang Qingheng is a gentleman, very handsome, gentle and polite, and elegant and generous, could it be that he was ignorant when he was a child, and he was broken by Mrs. Wang at this time?

"Wang Qingheng is not a good person, so my father broke off contact with the Wang family, but chose another husband for me in the capital." Miss Cai continued, Shu Manyao frowned: "Even if this is the case, the Wang family is not authentic, and your Cai family is not authentic, since you have the intention to withdraw from the marriage, why don't you just say it?" ”

"At that time, the Wang family was unwilling to withdraw from the marriage." Miss Cai smiled bitterly: "Wang Qingheng made such a fuss, if the Cai family goes to withdraw from the marriage again, it will hurt the feelings of the two families, and secondly, Wang Qingheng's reputation will be completely ruined, that is, for the sake of the relationship between Mrs. Wang and my mother back then, our Cai family can't do such a thing." ”

"It's not that you want to withdraw from the marriage generously, but the two families have solved this matter in private." Shu Manyao pouted: "It's a very simple thing, you have to worry about this and that, and in the end, don't you still want to make a fuss like this?" ”

"My father did write a letter to Mr. Wang to privately talk about the divorce." Miss Cai hurriedly distinguished: "The Wang family didn't agree, we thought that as long as we cut off the connection with the Wang family, it would be fine, so five years ago, my father set another family business for me." ”

Thinking about what happened to Wang Qingheng at that time, the Wang family was afraid that they would not give up on Miss Cai at that time.

"That person is not a big family, just a talent with a constant income." Miss Cai continued, Shu Manyao didn't interject, and listened while drinking tea: "Later, the war in Northern Xinjiang was very tense, so he went to be a soldier, and this time he went, it was five years. ”

"Because the two of us have also met after being engaged, and we have each other's intentions, so in this life, I will not marry anyone else except him." Miss Cai was a little embarrassed, but she still continued: "So later, when my mother and second sister ruined my reputation, I didn't take it seriously, and my reputation was ruined. Second, it can also prevent others from coming to the door to propose. ”

Shu Manyao couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth, this girl, when she said she was stupid, she suddenly showed her smart side. I finally felt that this girl was not too stupid, she was still a well-intentioned person, but looking back at what she did, it made people feel very speechless.

But if you look at it on another side, this girl is a person who values love and righteousness, and would rather the people of the world bear me, and I will not bear the compassion of the people of the world, which is almost comparable to the Buddha. However, unlike the Buddha, she is not disappointed at all if she is good to her, just like Mrs. Wang, who would rather have a bad reputation than let the Wang family bear any bad reputation. is not good for her, just like Mrs. Cai and Second Miss Cai, they are ruthless, and everyone is placed in the palace, and they are by no means simple-minded.

"If you want to get rid of the Wang family, there are many ways." After a long time, Cheng said a word, and Miss Cai smiled indifferently: "However, is there a way not to affect the reputation of the Wang family and the Cai family at all?" ”

There is always one party to take responsibility for such a thing, either the Wang family or the Cai family. Mrs. Wang is very good to Miss Cai's mother, so Miss Cai is unwilling to let Mrs. Wang down. But the reputation of the Cai family is bad, so whether it is Lord Cai or Prince Cai, they will be implicated, and Miss Cai will never allow this kind of thing to happen.

"Then didn't you think that if the person you were engaged to came back and heard about your reputation, he would divorce you again?" The old lady couldn't help but ask, how much she hated this Cai girl before, and how sympathetic she was now.

Miss Cai shook her head: "If he really quits the marriage without checking, then I would rather not marry such a person." ”

The old lady blinked, and couldn't ask any more words, the original sympathy also dissipated, looking soft, in fact, this girl has a big idea, the girl's family, it's too strong. If she is like their family Manyao, she is gentle and considerate and sensible, then she is a good girl.

"If you do this, your father and your brother won't react?" Shu Manyao opened her mouth to ask, and Miss Cai raised her eyebrows slightly: "The backyard is all in the hands of me and my mother, we don't want them to know about things, how can they know?" Men can't meddle in the backyard. ”

Lord Cai didn't worry about Mrs. Cai, so he let Miss Cai take care of the house, because Miss Cai was an unmarried girl, she couldn't be too prominent, so she shared some power with Mrs. Cai, so the two sides restrained each other.

Mrs. Cai didn't want Lord Cai to know that she was ruining her daughter's reputation, and Miss Cai didn't want Lord Cai to know that she was ruining her reputation, so when Lord Cai and Master Cai found out that something was wrong, the situation was already out of control.

The Shu family itself is like this, men can't meddle in the backyard, so the situation that Miss Cai said, everyone can understand it when they think about it.

After stopping for a while, Shu Manyao coughed lightly: "I still don't understand a little, and I ask Miss Cai to solve my doubts." Without waiting for Miss Cai to speak, Shu Manyao asked: "If there is no difference between the matter and Miss Cai, then Miss Cai only needs to tell King Lejun that she is already engaged, no matter how powerful King Lejun is, I am afraid that he can't force Miss Cai, right?" ”
