Chapter 193: Rumors
Donglai smiled and said, "I don't know what Miss wants to do?" ”
Song Anning instructed: "The Li family bullied people and robbed the people's daughters, my eldest sister was single, she was robbed into the mansion by force, and was insulted by the young master Li, these words should be enough to cause a sensation in the city, right?" ”
Donglai nodded hurriedly.
"Of course, Miss is going to spread all these words?"
"Yes, remember, the farther it spreads, the better, preferably in several state capitals near and far, where everyone knows about it."
Donglai pursed his lips and smiled, "Yes, the little one knows, and the little one will do it." ”
Following.
Sure enough, rumors about Song Yue and Li Wenliang began to spread in the city.
The rumor was exactly the same as Song Anning and Dong's words, and everyone was also sympathetic to Song Yue when they were indignant about what the Li family had done.
When Song Yue went out, she heard such a rumor, and she was immediately angry.
Hurriedly asked the maid ring to put on the curtain for her, and went home in a gloomy manner.
"Dad, this Li family is too much! How dare they do this, in order to let me marry into the Li family, they did not hesitate to destroy their reputation and resort to such a means! Now that the whole city knows that I am not an innocent person, who else can I marry in the future? And what man would want me? ”
Song Yue whimpered and cried.
At the same time, in the courtyard of the Li family, Mrs. Li was also shocked and angry.
"This Song family's big house is so shameless, it's obvious that they are rushing to stick my son upside down, and now it's my son's fault? said in front of me that he refused to marry into the Li family, and behind my back he used such shady means to damage the reputation of my Li family, hehe, it is really a lack of people's hearts and swallowing elephants, what a vicious scheme. ”
Li Wendong also learned about this and came to find Mrs. Li.
"Mother, what's going on? Outside there are rumors that our Li family is bullying, and it is also said that the eldest brother has defiled Miss Song, could it be that the eldest master of the Song family came last night? You're just arguing about this? ”
At this time, Mrs. Li also knew that she couldn't hide it.
But the pot that shouldn't be carried by the Li family, she will never carry it.
So he explained to Li Wendong, "Dong'er, this matter is to be said, but it is very simple to talk about it, it's not that Niang Yi wants to damage the reputation of others, what kind of character are the few people in the Song family's big house, you can go out and inquire casually, and you will know that they are not good people, then Song Yue took a fancy to our family's family background, and she had to marry into our family, originally I didn't agree, but I didn't expect that she found some side ways from nowhere and got some things for your eldest brother......"
"Alas, your eldest brother is delirious again, and in a daze, the situation has become like this, last night Master Song made such a big pomp and came to find someone, just to catch the scene, so that we can admit this matter and let Song Yue marry into the Li family."
"I finally sent them away last night, although this is not our Li family's fault, but your eldest brother took advantage of others, so I thought, if they are willing to marry Song Yue, I will pay tens of thousands of taels of silver to give a dowry, and I will save the face of the two families by suffering a little loss, and this matter will be forgotten, but I didn't expect them to disagree."
"Hehe, don't agree, I still think that Song Yue is such a high-spirited character, and guess what? They turned around and went out to make a big fuss, saying that we sent someone to capture Song Yue in order to force her to marry your eldest brother, isn't it a joke? According to our Li family's family background, can we be guilty of this? Even if your eldest brother doesn't have a good brain, but that girl from a poor peasant family, what does she want, and she Song Yue is not gold-edged, as for me, I ruined the century-old reputation of our Li family for her? It's hilarious. ”
Mrs. Li's appearance was obviously angry.
Li Wendong originally had doubts about this, but seeing that she was so angry, he believed it.
"Mother, don't be angry first, since it's not our fault, then let's tell the truth, it's a big deal, report to the government, I'm not afraid of shadows, I don't believe that the Song family can say that the black is white, and the sky is turned upside down."
Mrs. Li wanted to speak and stopped.
It's not that she's afraid of making trouble in the government's mansion, it's just that they are now living in a guest house, and if there is a big scandal, they will inevitably be disliked by the main branch.
In addition, her husband, Li Wendong's father, is now on the cusp of promotion, if something happens again and there is no hope of promotion, it will be a big loss.
So, Mrs. Li quickly thought of a countermeasure.
"No, you can't let the rumors continue to spread like this, Steward Liu, you immediately write a letter to the master, and count another 10,000 taels of silver, let's go to the Song family."
Li Wendong was startled and grabbed Mrs. Li.
"Mother, what are you doing here?"
Mrs. Li said: "Your father's official reputation can't be affected by this, and we can't make too much trouble to dislike the main branch, anyway, your eldest brother is like that, it's good to be able to get a daughter-in-law, who cares about the other party's character?" You don't want your eldest brother to die alone, in that case, if the girl of the Song family wants to marry into our Li family, I will give her enough face, personally come to the door to propose marriage, and let her marry her, then the rumors will stop, and the rest of the things will be dealt with later. ”
Li Wendong frowned, a little disapproving.
"Since that person is scheming, he must be misbehaving, how can he let such a person enter my Li family and take care of my eldest brother?"
Mrs. Li ignored him, "Okay, I have my own opinion on this matter, you go back to the house to Wenshu, don't delay your study, come on, bring the second young master back." ”
"Mother."
"Second Young Master, let's go back first."
Li Wendong wanted to say something more, but looking at his mother's resolute face and the respectful invitation of the slave beside him, in the end, he could only leave unwillingly.
This way.
Mrs. Li quickly prepared her things and hurried to Song's house.
didn't know that at this time, Song Yue was not in the Song family at all.
It's not that she doesn't want to stay at home, but she's afraid, afraid that her grandfather will hear the rumors outside and come to the door, afraid that the family will blame.
Except for her father, no one in the family understood her.
She was impatient to listen to their teachings, and even more impatient to see the gossip of relatives who clearly showed concern, but in fact came to see the excitement, so she simply hid and looked for a clean place.
Of course, Song Yue is a figure on the cusp at this time, and it is impossible to go out through the main gate.
So, she pretended to be a little girl, went out through the back door, and ran until she reached the small river outside the city, before she stopped and shouted loudly at the river.
After shouting for a while, Song Yue vented the emotions in her heart, and then she felt much better.
She stood by the river, looking at the calm and waveless river, her nose was a little sore, and her chest was a little blocked.
Why?
Why is Song Anning strong in everything, everything is good, and she can get whatever she wants, but she just doesn't want a good son-in-law.
Why can Song Anning be held in the palm of everyone's hands, and she wants to marry a fool?
She was not convinced!
She was not convinced!
She wants to trample Song Anning under her feet, and she wants to take all the property of the third room!
