Chapter 5: Selling Yourself for Glory
Zhang Shi made a look and asked his subordinates to pull He Shi to the chair next to him, while he sat on the edge of the bed and patted Liang Wan's hand, always gentle and intimate.
"Ah Wan, you haven't been seen for most of the day, but everyone is in a hurry, your uncle sent all the people who can be sent up and down the house to find you, and almost turned Jin Yecheng upside down!
Tell me, if something really happens to you, how will your uncle and I go to Jiuquan in the future and explain to your father? β
What's wrong?
Liang Wan stared at the hand covering her, feeling sick in her heart.
Seeing that she was not angry, Zhang continued, "Actually, even if you don't say it, we know that you just belong to Cui Xiaolang."
But as the old saying goes, if you don't wait for your parents' orders, the words of the matchmaker, you can peep through the holes, and follow each other over the wall, then your parents and people are cheap. Are you trying to degrade yourself? β
Liang Wan sneered in her heart, wouldn't it be cheap to force her to marry Wang Su, who was nearly half a hundred years old, as a concubine?
Everyone quietly observed Liang Wan.
In Su Ri, the relationship between the third lady and Na Cui's Xiaolang is closer than others, which is obvious to everyone.
Liang Wan closed her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief a little, before she looked at the Zhang family again, "What did my aunt say, then Cui Hao is just a down-and-out clan, how can I surrender my identity to make friends with him?" β
He had a straight face, while Zhang was a visible suspicion, "Really? β
"Who the hell framed me for going to him?"
Liang Wan was sweating, but she was still holding on, and she couldn't admit the appointment with Cui Hao today!
She slowly looked at the crowd and fixed on one of them, "Chun'er, did you say that?" β
Chun'er was startled, and knelt on the ground with a white face, anxious to confess.
"Lady, it's not a slave, how dare a slave and a slave chew the root of her tongue behind her master's back?"
Even dare to do things that sell for glory, what is it to chew the root of your tongue?
Liang Wan lowered her eyes, and there was hatred in her eyes.
Because of Zhang Shi, she has always been reluctant to intimate things. Fortunately, Cui Hao never forced her after marriage, but she was not guilty.
accidentally got up at night, and let her bump into Cui Hao into Chun'er's house. Although she was a little uncomfortable in her heart, he was a normal man after all, and it was normal for him to have needs.
What's more, after she was kicked out, Chun'er did not hesitate to secretly bring a lot of property from the Liang Mansion to her, and she couldn't bear to be harsh on this heartfelt rush. Therefore, she will not know anything about them from then on.
But if it weren't for the reliving of her life, she would still be kept in the dark. In fact, they have long been secretly Chencang. Otherwise, Chun'er wouldn't have always said good things for him in front of her, and she also asked her to go to Cui Hao's relatives' house.
It's all about their inside and out!
It's a pity that she has been blind!
Catch thieves and stolen goods, catch traitors and catch doubles. She is not in a hurry, this time it doesn't work, they are bound to make a comeback, she can wait.
"It's good if not."
Liang Wan lifted her eyelids and propped up her palms without a trace, the red marks on the skin were eye-catching, "After I separated from Chun'er, I didn't want to meet a thief on the street, he stole my money bag, I chased it all the way, I got lost, and I fell." β
Zhang took her hand and looked at it carefully, it was indeed a fall.
Liang Wan said, "If you don't believe it, you can send someone to Southeast Street to ask, someone must have seen me." β
In order to hide people's eyes, she deliberately went around Southeast Street before going to the place where she met, not wanting to really come in handy now.
"Then why are you soaking wet?"
As he spoke, a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face and a medium stature walked in.
It was his uncle, Liang Cheng.
"Someone saw that I was lost, pretending to help me, but in fact with bad intentions, when I pushed and pulled with him, I accidentally fell into the water, fortunately a passing boatman rescued me, otherwise I would not have come backββ"
When Liang Cheng heard this, his face changed, and he immediately looked at Zhang, "But let the doctor see, it didn't hurt anything, right?" β
Zhang's understanding and gave him a look, "Don't worry, the head of the family is fine." β
Liang Cheng relieved his heart, "Since you are not injured, there is no need to mention this matter again, otherwise it will not only damage your reputation, but also make our Liang Mansion disgraceful."
Again, let Sikong know, and he will definitely blame and make him unhappy. In the future, when you enter the house, it will not be good for you. β
Liang Wan nodded in response.
I didn't want Liang Cheng to look at it again, and his eyes were obviously a little colder, "Today, since you came back safely, I won't pursue this matter, but I also hope that you are sincere in getting married, instead of thinking of other ways to escape."
You know, my Liang Mansion never raises useless people, since you were born in the Liang family, and you have the title and identity of these three ladies, you have to take your due responsibilityββ"
Is it the responsibility to sell oneself for glory?
Under the sleeves, Liang Wan clenched her fists tightly, even if she sells it, it can't be for you!
Zhang looked at Liang Wan hanging her neck, bowed her head and said nothing, and pulled Liang Cheng's arm at the right time, "Tossing for a long time, she was frightened and still sick, just say a few words, don't worry, with me and my eldest sister-in-law watching, there will be no other trouble." β
Then he said, "Ah Wan, you have to understand your uncle's hard work, how many people have sharpened their heads and wanted to enter the gate of Sikong Mansion, but there is no way. And you, easily favored by Wang Sikong, isn't this all planned by your uncle for you? β
She patted Liang Cheng without a trace, and Liang Cheng had no choice but to soften his attitude, "Yes, although Wang Sikong is a little older, you can see the importance he attaches to you, and he will not treat you badly in the future!" This is something that no number of people can ask for! β
Liang Wan raised her head and smiled at him, "Uncle, don't worry, I will cherish such a good blessing!" β
Seeing that she was not as resistant as in the past, Liang Cheng was overjoyed and nodded again and again, "It's good that you know!" β
You know, of course you know, why don't you leave such a good blessing to your own daughter?
No, He Shi, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth.
"Honestly, who the hell are you going to meet? Are you still going to lie to me? β
Liang Wan's chest ached faintly, "Then who does A-Niang think I should go to see?" β
Immediately after, the dark cloak was thrown over and smashed on her body, "This is a man's clothes!" Who are you going to meet? β
Man?
Liang Cheng and Zhang glanced at each other, and their eyes fell on the cloak together.
Just now, they all only focused on Liang Wan, completely ignoring the abnormality of the cloak, and now they couldn't help but be shocked.
Liang Wan fell on the bed, and her heart couldn't stop being cold.
Zhang stepped forward and carefully removed the cloak, helped Liang Wan up, and persuaded, "Ah Wan, tell us honestly, who are you going to see?"
What's going on with this man's cloak?
You are a lady who has not been out of the cabinet, how can you wear the clothes of a foreign man, if this spreads, how will you meet people in the future?
What's more, if this matter is known to Lord Sikong, wouldn't your reputation beβ"
"Peony?"
Zhang was talking, but Liang Cheng was surprised.
