The wife of Zhao's family got up the next day to tidy up, and staggered to the Xie's butcher's shop.

Last night, she told her husband Zhao Jiang about the good news. After hearing this, Zhao Jiang said that it would be inappropriate to use Xie Erniang's excuse to coerce Xie Yi and his wife into marrying their daughter.

But the wife of the Zhao family said that if it was inappropriate, she would bother him to find a wife for her son, and complained that Zhao Jiang was incompetent, which made her son unable to marry a wife when he was so old.Now that Xie Erniang is like a piece of fat mutton delivered to the door, if the Zhao family doesn't want it, it's not stupid, and it ends up taking advantage of others.She also said that this kind of opportunity is one in a million, and if you don't grasp it, you will regret it for a lifetime.

Zhao Jiang was embarrassed by what she said, but he still asked the wife of the Zhao family, if the result of the discussion between Xie Yi and his wife was that they did not agree to promise Xie Erniang to his own Saburo, what should she do? Do you want to spread the word about what Saburo saw?

The wife of the Zhao family said: "Of course, only those who have yelled about this matter all over the town will know that Xie Erniang can't get married, and when our Zhao family goes to ask for a marriage, Xie Yi and his wife will regret not agreeing to marry Xie Erniang. To our family, Saburo, finally agreed to our family's marriage proposal..."

Zhao Jiang asked with some concern: "But if they still don't agree, then the Xie family will become enemies with our family. They are both native residents of the same town. The Xie family is still an upper-class family. You can't see it when you look up. You see it when you look down. You have to think about it, if we have an extra family like the Xie family, will we be able to live a smooth life in the future?"

The wife of the Zhao family was silent for a moment, but soon she gritted her teeth and said: "For our Sanlang, even if it is a risky move, I have to go. If I dare not even take this little risk, Sanlang may procrastinate." If you can't get a wife by the time you're twenty, it's not because you're worthless!"

Zhao Jiang was scolded again by his wife, who said he was worthless, so she also shut up. He stood up and waved his hands irritably, "Come on, go on, go on, do whatever you like, I don't care!"

The wife of the Zhao family still didn't shut up, and said a few words to Zhao Jiang's back, saying that she was blind, married the wrong person, married Zhao Jiang, a worthless man, and so on.

She made up her mind, for the sake of her son Zhao Sanlang, even if she took risks, she had to follow the established plan.Besides, she felt that Xie Yi and his wife would not dare to bet on their daughter's lifelong happiness, and she expected that Xie Erniang would definitely become the wife of her son Zhao Sanlang.

Therefore, when she walked into Xie's butcher shop and saw Mrs. Wu, she came with a confident attitude.

Mrs. Wu still politely invited Mrs. Zhao to sit down and have tea and talk. When Mrs. Zhao asked about the result of Xie Yi and his wife's discussion yesterday, Mrs. Wu said: "I discussed it with the officials last night. The officials said that my second mother's age I'm still young, so I don't plan to be engaged to anyone else's lord."

"What?" The wife of the Zhao family changed color when she heard it, and her voice immediately cooled down, "Miss Wu, I don't know if you have told your officials if my family's Sanlang saw her by the river next to the Xie family. Kijiro is so frivolous, if such words spread, hum! I don’t need to say more, you know what the consequences will be!”

Mrs. Wu has been perfunctory enough for the wife of the Zhao family. Since the idea she discussed with the officials last night was that she would rather let her second wife not marry, it would not be cheaper. Shi was not polite anymore, and responded in a cold voice: "My officials also asked me to pass you a message. Don't think that you use this as a threat, just want us husband and wife to promise our daughter to that worthless Saburo of your family. , if you really dare to talk nonsense and ruin my second mother's reputation, then let's ride a donkey to read the libretto, wait and see, and see what kind of good fruit your Zhao family can catch!"

The lady of the Zhao family narrowed her eyes slightly, stood up abruptly, looked at Mrs. Wu and said fiercely: "Okay, let's wait and see, I don't believe it anymore, your Xie family can control our Zhao family's mouth, unless you put all of our Zhao family Killed. If you want people to know, unless you do nothing, your Erniang Xie did such a shameful thing by herself, and she can still control others from talking about it! I'm throwing my words here today, your Erniang's reputation is bad, Yangliu Town When no husband is willing to marry her, then, don't think about our Zhao family again!"

Wu said angrily: "Don't worry, my family officials have said that even if my second mother never gets married, we can still afford it! You don't need to worry about it!"

"Okay, you wait, you Xie family are waiting!" Zhao's wife gritted her teeth, her face turned ferocious because her wishful thinking was overturned.

After finishing speaking, she left angrily, while Wu Shi spit at her from behind, then found Xie Yi at the meat stall outside, pulled him aside, and told him that she had clearly rejected Zhao's family. Ma'am, I'm afraid that the Zhao family's wife will spread rumors about her daughter Xie Erniang in Yangliu Town, so I'm still a little worried.

Xie Yi then said: "Leave her alone, let's talk to Erniang about this matter first tonight, so that she will know what's going on, so that she won't get angry when she hears the rumors outside. Doesn't our daughter feel sorry for herself?"

Mrs. Wu said hello, saying that she felt more at ease when her husband said so.

The two couples looked at each other with a smile, walked to the meat stall, and started shopping together.

The wife of the Zhao family went back angrily and told her son Zhao Sanlang, saying that Xie Yi and his wife didn't know what was good or bad, and they rejected the Zhao family's marriage proposal. The scandal with Xie Erniang is publicized.

The mother and son immediately started to go out to spread rumors about Xi's family and Xie's family. Everyone they met would talk about Xi Erlang and Xie Erniang, and Xi Erlang's ambiguity with his widowed sister-in-law...

In the past half a month, everyone in Yangliu Town knew that Xie Erniang was being treated lightly by Xi Erlang, and some people even spread it even more, saying that Xie Erniang had lost her innocence, so she hid at home and dared not come out to see people.What's more, Xierlang hooked up with his widowed sister-in-law, which is really bad. It's really indecent to have such an outsider settle down in Yangliu Town.

As a result, gradually fewer people came to Xie's butcher's shop to buy meat than in the past. What's more, people who came to buy meat looked at Xie Yi and his wife with sympathetic eyes, and some even said a few words of comfort, which made them feel uncomfortable. The embarrassment of Xie Yi and his wife was inexplicable, and someone even reminded Xie Yi and his wife that their daughter was bullied by the neighbor Xi Erlang, why didn't they drive Xi Erlang away.After hearing this, Xie Yi and his wife knew that this was the result of the Zhao family's mother and son's efforts to spread rumors, so they explained to the person who kindly reminded them, saying that there was no such thing, their daughter was fine, and there was no such thing at all. The thing about being bullied by Kijiro.

The person who kindly reminded them asked, since there was no such thing, why didn't Xie Erniang come out and play as usual recently.

Wu could only say that her daughter had recently suffered from a cold and her body was not feeling refreshed, so she didn't go out for a walk. When she recovered from her illness, she could come out to play.

Unexpectedly, this remark made others wonder whether Xie Erniang was bullied and became pregnant, which is why Mrs. Wu said that she was sick. When Mrs. Wu learned from other people that people in the town started spreading such rumors again I was so angry that I fell backwards.

Because of the gossip about his daughter, the Xie family's business has not been affected obviously, but the seed business of the Xi's family next door can hardly go away, and almost no one comes to buy bean sprouts at Liu's stall.So for the remaining ten catties of bean sprouts, Mrs. Liu kept some for the family to eat, and gave the rest to the Xie family next door and the Hu family in the grocery store opposite.

Seeing that she had accepted Liu's bean sprouts, Mrs. Hu at the grocery store kindly told her about the rumors about Liu's son, Xi Erlang. Li Zheng, the superior, suggested that Yangliu Town could not accommodate people as immoral as Xi Erlang, and that Xi Erlang and Xi's family must be driven out of Yangliu Town.

Mrs. Liu was shocked when she heard the words, and only then did she understand why Xijia's seed business has been getting worse and worse in the past few days. In the end, she couldn't even sell them, and there were too many leftovers to give away.

She hurriedly explained to Mrs. Hu, saying that there was no such thing at all. She didn't know who was spreading rumors to slander her own Erlang, and Mrs. Hu also saw how honest her own Erlang was. things.If such a thing really happened, wouldn't Xie Yi and his wife have come to Xie's family to ask for an explanation?

After such an explanation, Madam Hu was a little convinced, but she also talked about another rumor about Xi Erlang, saying that he had an unclear relationship with the widow and his wife.

When Liu heard this, she couldn't laugh or cry, she really wanted to blurt out immediately, saying that Erlang is a woman, how could such unclear things happen between him and his sister-in-law.But Mrs. Hu said that Xi Erlang was not married, and the Qi family was young and never remarried, and they all lived in the same house, which really aroused people's imagination.

"This is also nonsense, my old woman can testify, if I coax you, I will be struck to death by thunder when I go out!" In desperation, Liu had no choice but to swear a poisonous oath to defend himself.

Mrs. Hu said: "Even if I believe you, other people in this town must believe you. Hey, no one told me that this word has spread to all the people in the town. You, you should go back and clean up. Get ready to move, lest in the future there will be some benevolent and moral people in this town who will chase you away, and by then, you will be unable to advance or retreat, which is not a trouble."

Mrs. Liu thanked Mrs. Hu for her reminder, and hurried home. When she got home, it happened that Shunniang had gone to sell bean sprouts and firewood and returned from Bianliang City. As soon as she entered the house, she was telling her sister-in-law, Mrs. The roster given by Sister Song Yu went to visit the little foot shop above to sell the seeds made by herself.

"It's terrible!" Liu yelled as soon as he entered the door, he closed the door with his backhand, and then inserted the latch.

Shunniang and Qi Shi looked at Liu Shi who was full of panic, and asked her what happened and why she was so panicked.

Mrs. Liu told Shunniang and Mrs. Qi everything she had heard from Mrs. Hu, and finally said: "I said why our family's breed is getting less and less sold. In the past two days, no one has bought it. But it turned out that someone made rumors to slander Shunniang, what should we do now, Mrs. Hu advised us to move as soon as possible, lest people in this town will come and drive us away..."

When Qi heard this, she burst into tears immediately, and Shunniang had no choice but to persuade her not to panic or cry, there was always a solution.

She told the old lady that this family must not be moved, and she could not move after hearing what Mrs. Hu said. After all, the Xi family lived here well, and even the landlord Xie Yi and his wife did not propose to let the Xi family move.The most important thing is that they have just started their seed business. If they want to move out of Yangliu Town, they don't know where to find such a suitable house to live in. In addition, they are short of money, and moving is a big expense. Sorry.

In a word, this home cannot be moved.

Mrs. Liu asked her, if she didn't move, if those benevolent and moral people in this town would call to let Xi's family move, then it would be difficult for her to get out of the house.

Shunniang thought for a while and wanted to ask my old lady, do you know who is spreading the rumors? Mrs. Liu shook her head and said she didn't know, and the wife of the Hu family didn't tell herself who was spreading the rumors, she just told herself that everyone in Yangliu Town is now Knowing this rumor, there is a lot of discussion.

For some reason, Shunniang thought of Zhao Sanlang. She thought that in this town, the Zhao family might be the only enemy of the Xi family. Last time at Qi Dalang's gambling house, after Lu Quan helped their family suffer a big loss, the Zhao family Father and son will definitely hate themselves when they go back.At that time, because Lu Quan was still there, they tabooed that they and Lu Quan were sworn brothers. Although they hated themselves, they still did not dare to retaliate.But now Lu Quan ran away and left Yangliu Town, so they jumped out to spread rumors and hurt themselves. Not only that, they also wanted to use this rumor to incite some people in the town who didn't know the truth to deal with Xi's family together, and finally reached the goal of killing Xi's family. The purpose of driving out of Yangliu Town.

This time their move is very vicious and powerful. If I don't think of a way to resolve it, I'm afraid Xi's family will be kicked out of Yangliu Town in the end. A hit.After all, Sister Song Yu was sending [-] catties of mung bean sprouts every day. Wouldn't it be out of stock for this move? Or, after understanding the situation, Sister Song Yu would consider herself and let her move again, and then deliver the goods after she settled down.But the hotel has officially launched this stir-fried dish made from mung beans. Diners want to order this dish, but Sister Song Yu can't get it out. Isn't that a signboard for smashing others.

Shunniang was absolutely unwilling to affect Sister Song Yu's business because of her own reasons, which made her decide not to move out of Yangliu Town unless it was absolutely necessary and desperate.

Since they don't want to move, they have to find other ways to resolve the crisis this time. Shunniang decided to find out who is behind the rumors before trying to find a solution.

She thought that Erniang Xie next door was also involved in the rumor this time, but did Xie Yi and his wife know about it?

"Mother, I'll go find Uncle Xie and Mrs. Wu." After finishing speaking, Shunniang turned around and went out, and walked into Xie's butcher's shop through the main entrance.

Xie Yi and his wife met Shunniang in the small room for guests in the shop. Before Shunniang could speak, Xie Yi had already spoken, and asked her if she came because of the bad rumors spreading outside.Shunniang said yes, and she asked Xie Yi and his wife if they heard about it too?

Xie Yi said: "I heard about it a long time ago, and I also know who is spreading the rumors. I feel unhappy, and I am planning to take people to find Zhao's mother and son, and beat them up first."

Shun Niang let out an "Oh" and said: "It turns out that they are spreading rumors, but I don't understand, the Xie family and the Zhao family have no enmity, why would they create rumors that are not good for the Xie family's second mother? The Xi family has a rift, so it is reasonable to create some rumors that are not good for me."

It was the first time for Xie Yi and his wife to hear Shunniang say that the Zhao family had feud with the Xi family, so they asked her what caused the two families to feud.

Shunniang told Xie Yi and his wife that she didn't want to teach Zhao Sanlang to fish, and he asked someone to beat her. Later, Lu Quan found out and helped them lose some money. It's settled.Therefore, she guessed that all the rumors about herself this time, such as bullying the second mother of the Xie family, and being unclear with her sister-in-law were all rumors spread by the Zhao family.

After hearing this, Xie Yi punched the table heavily, and said angrily: "The Zhao family are all villains, this time not only our second mother, but also Xi Erlang have been harmed by them, if this matter is not allowed They have suffered a lot, and they don't know how they will be reckless and domineering!"

Immediately afterwards, he plotted against his daughter by Zhao's mother and son, and wanted their husband and wife to promise their daughter to Zhao Sanlang. , can't get married, so I have to tell Shunniang about marrying Zhao Sanlang in the future.

"I didn't expect this Zhao Sanlang to be so shameless!" Shun Niang couldn't help being furious after hearing this.

Xie Yi: "To deal with these shameless people, it doesn't make sense for you to reason with them. The last time the lady of the Zhao family came to our shop, I told her to think twice and not to spread rumors to destroy my daughter. Fame, who would have thought that bitch would still do nothing but insist on doing that. Now rumors about my second mother and you are rampant in Yangliu Town, not only ruining my daughter's reputation, but also ruining your family's seed business. We have to settle this account with the mother and son of the Zhao family!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Wu asked Xie Yi if he had decided to take someone to beat Zhao's mother and son?If they hurt someone, I'm afraid they will be involved in a lawsuit. Once the common people get involved in a lawsuit, they will have to spend a lot of money.Regardless of spending money, the rumor still exists, and it’s not going to go away.In addition, she said that Xie's family is a business family, and they are the most taboo to go to court.

Xie Yi said that if he didn't do this, wouldn't his daughter suffer in vain? Since the Zhao family dared to spread rumors to damage their daughter's reputation, then he, as a father, would not be worthy of being the second mother's father if he didn't teach the Zhao family a lesson. You have to vent your anger for your daughter, even if you spend all your wealth.

But Shunniang thought of another way, that is, if she really wanted to teach Zhao's mother and son a lesson, she couldn't let Xie Yi come forward.There is a person in this town who can be used. Let him come forward to help teach Zhao's mother and son, but it will cost some money.But before she said it, she also weighed it in her heart. She was a little hesitant to say it. She was afraid that although the method she said would work, it would make Xie Yi and his wife think of her and regard herself as a person with evil intentions. .

However, although my own method is a bit unreasonable, it is very effective, and it can also prevent Xie's family from being involved in the lawsuit, which will affect the business.

"Uncle Xie, boy, there is a way to teach the mother and son of the Zhao family who don't know what to do, but it will cost some money." After hesitating again and again, Shunniang still said her own words mean.

As soon as Xie Yi heard it, he asked Shunniang with interest if there was any good way to teach the mother and son of the Zhao family without having to show up. He asked Shunniang to tell him how much it would cost, as long as he could teach the mother and son of the Zhao family a little money, he didn't care. .

Shun Niang said: "I just thought of it, I still need to ask someone, I don't know how much money he needs before he is willing to make a move."

Xie Yi saw that Shunniang refused to explain what the solution was, so he also guessed that Shunniang would find some rascals to help teach Zhao's mother and son a lesson. After all, Shunniang and Lu Quan were sworn brothers before, and Lu Quancheng's family was outside. Hu Hun is a rambunctious idler, and it is normal for Shun Niang to know other people through him.

On weekdays, Xie Yi neither likes to deal with officials, nor does he like to associate with rogues. He thinks that he is a businessman, and the business can be done safely and securely only if officials and gangsters don't make friends.That's why, after the Zhao family's mother and son spread rumors to slander their daughter this time, he personally brought his staff to find the Zhao family's mother and son to settle the score.

Of course, Xie Yi thought clearly about the consequences of taking someone to beat Zhao's mother and son himself. This was because he was forced to do nothing, so he planned to do so.

Shun Niang made such a suggestion, and he knew it was easy to use, but he didn't want to adopt it lightly, so he hesitated.

Seeing Xie Yi's hesitation, Shunniang regretted telling her what she thought of. In fact, her purpose of coming here at the beginning was to ask Xie Yi and his wife who was spreading the rumors?Now that we have found out that Zhao's mother and son are spreading rumors, we should go back and find a way to deal with them, so why bother?

"Hey, the Yinu family said that if there is such a big fight, there must be troubles in the future. The slave family has a plan, which can solve the troubles of our two families." Wu suddenly slapped her thigh on the side, Said excitedly, saying so, she glanced at Shunniang again, and said again, "If Xi Erlang hadn't come over, the slave family would not have thought of such a way."

"Oh, my lady came up with a good idea, let's talk about it!" Xie Yi immediately looked at Wu Shi and asked.

Shunniang also frowned and looked at Wu Shi, wondering what wonderful solution she had come up with to solve the problem in front of her.

I just heard Mrs. Wu couldn't restrain her excitement and said: "I think, if our second mother and Xi Erlang get married, will people in this town not be able to believe rumors anymore? Second mother is not afraid to go out Being pointed at by others, and Xijia Erlang doesn't have to be afraid that people in the town will say that he has no clear relationship with his widowed wife..."

Before Wu could finish speaking, Shun Niang immediately vetoed: "No!"

Wu went on to say: "Listen to me, I'm using this excuse to prevent the people in the town from spreading rumors. After a year or so, the situation subsides, and you retire, we The two families are still irrelevant, you can marry, and my second mother can also marry, this is just a stopgap measure, it is better than the one who fights and kills, do you think so?"
