Chapter Fifty: It's All About Calculations
This kind of frame-up trick is not clever, but it works every time. Everyone sympathizes with the weak, not to mention that there is an unborn little life. Su Yiqing can imagine that she will definitely have no reputation in the future.
"Miss, you can't. There are so many maids and women who have testified. Besides, it was Youcao who ran away from nowhere...it's her fault anyway." Xin'er said anxiously.
"Really?" Su Yiqing said calmly, "I'm sure there will be rumors later. Outsiders will say that I can't tolerate others. After I found out that my fiancé's Tongfang had a child, I sent her away.
I was still unwilling to give in, so I secretly found out where Tongfang was, and with a large group of maids and women, I chased her there and beat her until she had a miscarriage."
"No, it won't happen." Xin'er consoled her, "My uncle is a scholar. He has just become a good scholar and will definitely be able to distinguish right from wrong. You obviously followed my wife and the fifth young lady to pray for blessings."
Su Yiqing sneered. Why should people not believe the maid who had been with her for several years, but she should believe her, a jealous daughter? The witnesses were all her family members, and if the person involved was not her, she would not believe that a little maid dared to be pregnant.
Going all the way to the nunnery to intercept the future mistress was clearly seeking death. Ordinarily, they were strangers to each other. Even if the little maid had a grudge and wanted to hang herself and jump into the river, she shouldn't be in front of her. A normal person would wonder if she did it.
What? Forcing the little maid to fight even though she has no chance of survival.
If you take a step back, even if you believe that Youcao came here on his own, you can't implicate the child when you make a mistake. In any case, you shouldn't be so harsh to a pregnant woman.
Youcao, God is willing to pity Youcao, and the world is full of Wanqing. Being able to give such a name to a married woman shows the importance of this girl in Cen Hengyuan's heart. At this time, she was quite curious whether there was another Wanqing in Cen Hengyuan's house.
.
After this incident, the Yuanping Mansion was naturally like an ant that exploded its nest.
Needless to say, there is cynicism and schadenfreude between sisters.
The Xu family was in tit-for-tat with the Cen family and had several quarrels.
Finally, the lawsuit came before Mrs. Cen. Mrs. Cen had been worried about too many things in the past year, and her spirit was not as good as before.
The Cen family's move to investigate the crime also made her very unhappy. There are differences between people who are close and distant. No matter how much she disliked Su Yiqing, she was also her biological granddaughter. Although she suddenly heard Su Yiqing kicking a pregnant woman who was six months pregnant.
Kicked down, I couldn't help but gasp in my heart, but thinking about the cause and effect, I was also very dissatisfied with the Cen family's behavior.
Before they got married, Cen Hengyuan's first-in-law became pregnant. This was obviously a slap in the face of Yuan Ping's house. If such a thing happened, the Cen family should quietly dispose of the first-in-law. They should not let that bitch do anything.
He ran to Su Yiqing. Now that something like this happened, it was not only Su Yiqing who was embarrassed, there were also several girls in the Su family who had not left the court.
Mrs. Xu also came to criticize, saying that she should not have proposed such a marriage to Su Yiqing in the first place. She did not agree with it, but her mother-in-law had made the decision herself. The marriage certificate had been changed, so what could she do? Now it seems that a scholarly family is better than an ordinary merchant's family.
She is also dirty and shameless. Outsiders don't know, but the madam should know that her daughter really went out to offer incense, and the first-in-law came to her alone for some reason. It must be a trick to get her to do something like this.
The noise made Mrs. Cen dizzy, so Mrs. Cen simply called Mrs. Cen's wife, Yue Shi, to come over.
Ask her directly what she wants?
Mrs. Yue said confidently that if Mrs. Cen hadn't promised that Su Yiqing's character was completely different from her mother's, she would never have agreed to the marriage. Now she would never let Su Yiqing in.
However, the Su and Cen families are related by marriage, and it is not easy to become enemies over this, so the Ninth Miss will be replaced by the Eighth Miss Su Yixiang. The Cen family would rather suffer some losses, but also want someone who is kind and gentle.
Mrs. Cen squinted her eyes and looked at Mr. Yue for a long time. She felt guilty and sneered. Then she said lightly: "So this is your idea. You should think about it carefully. Xiaojiu is my direct granddaughter.
Xiaoba’s father is a commoner.”
At this time, Mrs. Yue said forcefully: "When marrying a lady, character is the most important thing, and everything else is unimportant."
In this case, Mrs. Cen has nothing to say and has settled on this. Anyway, this is not the first time for the Su family sisters to marry easily. If it happens like this, they cannot force Su Yiqing to marry into the Cen family. Even if the Cen family is willing, the Xu family
I won't agree to it either.
Fortunately, there is no place where Xu is needed now, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with. Even so, it would be enough for her to have a headache.
As a result, Su Yiqing's reputation naturally fell to the bottom, even worse than Xu's.
The fierce reputation of Miss Yuanping's ninth lady spread throughout the streets of the capital.
However, this rumor was quickly suppressed by the storm in the court.
The imperial censor was impeached, Prince Kang was embezzling and derelict in his duties, neglecting human lives, robbing civilian girls, etc. The emperor was furious and took away Prince Kang's title of county prince and confiscated his family property. Except for the dowry of his female family members, all other properties were included.
Confiscated, Prince Kang's family was expelled from the capital.
The incident happened too suddenly. Although some people had previously impeached Prince Kang for crimes such as doting on concubines and killing his wife, living a corrupt life, etc., the emperor suppressed them and reprimanded several censors who made a fuss. No one expected that the emperor would
So well done.
Not only Prince Kang, but also several officials and wealthy businessmen who had close contacts with Prince Kang were also raided. Prince Kang was still fine, at least his life was saved. Those officials and wealthy businessmen had their heads killed, and their whole families suffered.
Among those sold into slavery was the natal family of the four-bedroom Chen family.
The second-in-command of Uncle Yuanping's Mansion couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Fortunately, because Su Yijuan was not favored, he had no connection with Prince Kang, and Prince Kang did not like him, otherwise they would all be in bad luck this time.
The Jiang family looked depressed, and their daughter Su Yijuan would also be expelled from the capital.
I heard that Princess Kang decided to leave with Prince Kang Heli after the decree was issued. She also wanted to marry her daughter Heli. Master Su and Mrs. Cen both opposed it. Mr. Su wanted official status and Mrs. Cen wanted to do so.
Considering the marriage issues of the other granddaughters, the appearance of Su Yiqing has already damaged the reputation of Yuanping Uncle House. Now if Su Yijuan divorces again, will any of the girls from Yuanping Uncle House dare?
Even when Master Su Si wanted to divorce Mr. Chen, he was scolded and told that no matter what he wanted to do, he had to survive this period and marry Su Yixiang first.
In order to avoid long nights and many dreams, Su Yixiang's marriage had already been put on the agenda, and this time it was held in a hurry.
In this troubled year, we dare not make any more preparations, so compared with previous weddings, Su Yixiang's wedding seemed very deserted.
However, after the dowry list was listed, everyone was shocked. The Cen family had been wronged in the previous incident and did not dare to make a fuss. However, Su Yixiang couldn't help but jump up and ran to Mrs. Cen, crying that it was unfair and the dowry was too small.
Mrs. Cen dismissed the servants, leaving only Aunt Jin by her side. She looked at her coldly for a long time, and then said: "You should be treated with admiration after three days of separation. I just thought that you have lived in the country for a year and your mind has improved a lot. I didn't expect it."
You are actually pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. Don’t think that I don’t know why the Cen family wants to marry you? Think about the fact that there are so many granddaughters around me. If the Cen family doesn’t want Xiaojiu, they have to fight for the big and second bedrooms first. Even if they fight for it,
If you don’t have a direct descendant, you should strive for a concubine. How can it be your turn? Think about it when Aunt Chen had a miscarriage and Aunt Qin herself had half a life left. How can she have any other calculations? Your mother also lacks the courage.
...Forget it, that's your fourth brother's business. I don't want to care about the trouble caused by your father being confused and messing up the family law. You just get married honestly, and I'll pretend that nothing happened. Let's continue the marriage.
If it doesn't work, you will definitely suffer the loss." e="General Guixiu"]
