There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 669
[Chapter 669, ruining the reputation]
“This is the magistrate’s house, it’s really magnificent.”
Li Wang was supported by two daughters-in-law, and kept looking at the backyard of Yan’s house, looking here and commenting there, as if he regarded this as his own home look like.
“The brothers and sisters of the Li family belong to the third sister. I am very lucky to live in such a big courtyard and have so many servants to serve me.”
Li Wang’s youngest daughter-in-law immediately laughed and said, “My mother is also very lucky to have such a good girl .” Daughter, in the future, you will just wait and enjoy your blessings.” Saying that, she also looked at Yan Wenxiu.
“The eldest son said that is the reason?”
Yan Wenxiu looked at the calculating woman in front of him indifferently. He didn’t know whether to say that this person was whimsical or ignorant. He really thought that their family could rely on it if they wanted to. superior?
Too lazy to talk nonsense with them, let the servant take him to a guest house, Yan Wenxiu turned and left.
Daohua and Gujian only returned to Peach Blossom Village in the first ten days of December. If it wasn’t for the fact that the end of the year was coming soon and there were a lot of family affairs, neither of them would have wanted to come back.
“Master, after the spring of next year, let’s go out again.”
“It doesn’t matter to be a teacher, but will the elders in your family agree?”
“I just need to tell them that I am going out with you, and they will definitely agree.”
“You just take it hard .” Be a shield for the teacher.” After
chatting and laughing with Gu Jian for a while, Dao Hua began to sort out the presents she had bought this time, and Wang Man’er walked in with a bad face when the gifts were only half sorted.
Daohua raised her eyes and glanced at her: “What’s the matter?”
Wang Maner: “Girl, something happened at home while we were away.”
Daohua paused: “What happened?”
Wang Maner said quickly: “Girl, Did you know you also have a step-grandmother?”
Daohua pondered for a while before remembering that Mrs. Li did have a stepmother: “There is such a person, but Mother and her have not been in contact for a long time.”
Wang Man’er said angrily: “But now, Mrs. Li’s stepmother drags the family away.” Those with mouths all live in our house and don’t leave. What’s worse, when they came over, they made a scene in front of our house. Now many people in Fucheng are saying that our wife is not filial. Why? Since then, Madam has lost her temper several times.”
Daohua’s face darkened immediately after hearing this: “Who did you listen to?”
Wang Man’er: “The Zhuangtou in Zhuangzi said it. Before Zhuangtou went to the provincial government Sending the bill, I heard a lot of people talking about it.”
Daohua frowned: “Go and get Yan Shouhou for me.”
Wang Man’er nodded, and just about to turn around and leave, he asked again: “Girl, we don’t want to go back right away. Would you like to take a look at the mansion?”
Daohua said silently, “No hurry, let’s listen to what Yan Shouhou said first.”
Wang Man’er didn’t ask any more questions, and hurried to find someone.
That afternoon, Yan Shouhou came to Peach Blossom Temple.
Daohua looked at Yan Shouhou: “Tell me about the Li family.”
Yan Shouhou immediately told Daohua what happened at home in the past two months.
“The Li family came here uninvited in October. My wife didn’t want to see them, so Mrs. Li made a big fuss at the door. At that time, a lot of people were attracted to wait and see. The uncle didn’t want to make things worse, so he had no choice but to call people into the mansion. Yes.”
“After entering the mansion, Madam met Mrs. Li and told them to leave quickly, but Mrs. Li had the audacity to say that she would live in our house forever and that Madam would support her and her two children.” A son.”
“Of course my wife doesn’t want to, but Mrs. Li said that if Mrs. Li disagrees, she will take to the streets and say that my wife is unfilial and will ruin the Yan family’s reputation.”
Yan Shouhou said carefully, raising his eyes from time to time The silent Daohua, because she couldn’t see what Daohua was thinking, became more cautious when speaking, trying not to involve her emotions in it.
“On the third day after Li’s family arrived, the two uncles rushed over immediately after receiving the news, and wanted to pick up Mrs. Li’s family, but Mrs. Li was unwilling to live or die, so the second uncle’s attitude was a little tougher. , Mrs. Li just throws and rolls.”
“The uncle wanted to take away Mrs. Li by force, but Mrs. Li screamed and wanted to bump her head. The two sons of Mrs. Li immediately yelled, saying that the two uncles wanted to kill Dead stepmother.”
“Although the two uncles were very angry, they didn’t dare to overdo it. Afterwards, the two uncles came again several times, and they said all the good and bad things, but they couldn’t take away Mrs. Li.”
Hearing this, Daohua asked, “Where are father and eldest brother, they can’t control Mrs. Li’s family?”
Yan Shouhou said, “Originally, the master and the uncle wanted to send someone to forcefully send Mrs. Li’s family away, but Unexpectedly, the eldest grandson of Mrs. Li is actually good friends with the second son of Fan Tongzhi’s family.”
“As soon as Li’s family arrived, the second son of Fan came to visit every three days, and during the period he brought other students from the prefectural school. The master cared about his reputation. It’s not easy to do too much.”
Daohua’s eyes were cold, and she sneered: “So, the Li family has been living in our house for more than two months, and no one can do anything to them?” As he
said, his eyes narrowed squinted.
“Fan Tongzhi’s Li family’s hometown is hundreds if not thousands of miles away from Ningmen Mansion. Can two people who can’t reach each other be friends?”
Sensing Daohua’s anger, Yan Shouhou hung his head and dared not speak.
Daohua continued to ask: “I heard that there are rumors in the city that the mother is not filial to the stepmother?”
Yan Shouhou nodded, with a puzzled face and said: “Although Mrs. Li made a fuss in front of the gate for a while that day, but The uncle quickly called people into the mansion, but for some reason, the rumors became more and more fierce, and the rumors became more outrageous.”
Daohua snorted coldly in her heart, why else, someone must be behind the scenes to fuel the flames , was silent for a while, and suddenly asked: “I told you to keep an eye on the Guo family. Has there been any movement in the Guo family during this time?”
Yan Shouhou was stunned for a moment, as if he didn’t expect the topic to change so quickly: “There is no movement in the Guo family.”
Daohua looked at Yan Shouhou, looked at his honest and honest face, and suddenly sighed, it was her fault. Now, she shouldn’t have asked Yan Shouhou to stare at the Guo family. With his temperament, let him stare at him. He probably just sent someone to watch the gate of the Guo family.
“Go and call me Cao Chuan and the bald head.”
Yan Shouhou left tremblingly. For some reason, he always felt that the girl’s eyes were full of disappointment when she looked at him for the last time.
Daohua watched Yan Shouhou’s leaving back, her eyes narrowed.
The Li family is just ordinary people, they have no fame, no support, and they had such unpleasant quarrels with their mother and uncle in the early years. It stands to reason that they would not dare to appear in front of the Yan family again.
But now, they just came, and they made such a big commotion, and even got involved with Fan Tongzhi. If there was no one behind them, she wouldn’t believe it if she was killed.
Was it made by the Guo family?
Daohua let out a sigh of relief, she had no scruples when dealing with the Jiang family, but for the Guo family Governor Guo was Xiao Yeyang’s uncle, she could ignore the Guo family, but she had to consider Xiao Yeyang’s feelings.
Soon, Cao Chuan and the bald head arrived.
Daohua said directly: “Go and find out whether anyone in the Guo family has contacted the Li family recently, and also, find out the Guo family’s private relationship with Fan Tongzhi’s family.”
Cao Chuan and the bald head took orders to leave.
As soon as the two left, Daohua fell into deep thought. What would she do if it was really the Guo family who plotted against the Yan family?
The Jiang family framed their father for losing the military rations in order to put the Yan family to death.
The Guo family recruited Mrs. Li’s family in order to tarnish the reputation of the Yan family.
One of these two is rampant and the other is insidious, both are so disgusting.
