Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity
Chapter 273 Storm 2
On the wedding day, didn't the servants of the Zheng family speak? Their conversations could have revealed that Mr. Zheng was the groom. But from the current situation, not only the Sheng family, but also the Zheng family, there are some things that most people know, and only a few people are kept in the dark.
This small group of people at least includes Cui and Chunhua. Even judging from the attitude of the second elder of the Zheng family today, he should not be aware of it, and Elder Sheng should also be unaware of it.
Xiao Lan thought about it for a while and decided not to dwell on this issue.
At this time, Cui started to scold Wang again. Logically speaking, Cui could not beat Wang, but Cui was Wang's mother-in-law, and what she was best at was making trouble. Even so, Wang could not do anything to her.
"You evil-hearted person, your daughter deserved to die early in childbirth because of you. You are such a bad person, you have no virtue..."
Wang knelt there, her body shaking violently. She lowered her head and tightly grasped her lapels with both hands.
There is a saying that goes, "Don't hit someone in the face, and don't expose their weaknesses when you scold them." But Cui had no scruples and always hit her son and daughter-in-law where they hurt. Family members always know where the other party's weaknesses and pain points are, so Cui targeted the pain points and took ruthless action, without any good intentions.
Xiao Lan's gaze shifted from Wang to Cui, and finally to Wang again. She secretly sighed, Wang was so humiliated today, and she didn't know how she would fight back in the future.
Cui had also scolded Sheng Xuan, Zhang, Sheng Hao, and Liu in the same way, but they were all honest people and never held grudges. They didn't expect revenge and counterattack, so what about Wang? Wang was not of such a temperament.
Now, as a daughter-in-law, Wang naturally cannot quarrel with her mother-in-law, but what will happen if these grievances accumulate over the years? Xiao Lan secretly pondered that Chunhua's marriage might be a revenge for Wang's accumulated grievances.
Xiao Lan has a say in this matter. Before their family was separated, Sheng Xuan, Zhang and Xiao Lan had never offended Sheng Nuo and Wang's family. At that time, Sheng Nuo, for his own future, could actually murder her and arrange a ghost marriage for her. Xiao Lan didn't believe that Wang didn't know about this.
Even though their family had not offended the first wife's family, they still ended up like this. Wang had suffered so much from Cui, and the Zheng family could provide support for Shengnuo, so selling Chunhua should be a piece of cake for the first wife's family.
Cui scolded Wang, and the scolding continued. Wang lowered her head and endured it silently. Sheng Chunhua sobbed and cried, while Sheng Lanhua tried to persuade her. Old Master Sheng sat on the kang without saying a word.
Although Wang had cleared herself of all charges, there were obvious loopholes in her words. Cui was too busy cursing and angry to notice them, and Chunhua was too busy crying to think about it. Could it be that Lanhua and Old Master Sheng also failed to notice them? Or did they hear them, or guessed them long ago, but were unwilling to tell the truth?
It was just as Wang said, she and Cui never left the house. All the women in the rich families were like this, but it didn't mean they were closed-minded. Wang had a source of information, and her source was naturally Sheng Nuo.
Mr. Sheng and Mrs. Cui were trapped in this small courtyard and had no independent source of information. However, Sheng Nuo went out to do errands every day, and Sheng Kai hung around Sheng Nuo every day, so he must know everything.
"Go and see why the eldest and the second son haven't come back yet." Grandpa Sheng spoke again.
Everyone in the room who could go out to look for it had gone out. Xiao Wen looked around and said, "I'll go take a look."
"Matchmaker, go find the matchmaker for me." Cui finally came to her senses and now remembered another person. "She congratulated me this morning and asked me for money. Go find her and I want to ask her in person, how can she have the nerve to..."
Seeing that no one in the room moved, Cui pointed at Shen and said, "You go!"
Shen agreed and went out to look for someone.
Sheng Nuo and Sheng Kai still hadn't come back, but the matchmaker came in with a big butt twisted, following Shen, smiling. Xiao Lan had a good impression of this matchmaker, the matchmaker who helped Chunhua find a good marriage, and she came early this morning.
This morning, the matchmaker congratulated Cui and Mr. Sheng, and helped Wang prepare to welcome the new son-in-law. She went to greet everyone in the family, including Zhang. When the matchmaker saw Xiaolan and Xiaowen, she smiled and asked them if they were going to live in Hejian County for a long time. If so, she would take care of their marriage and make sure to find a good match for them.
The upper room was in a mess just now and the matchmaker disappeared. At this time, Shen came in. There was no panic on her face. She was still smiling and full of joy.
"Oh my, what's going on? Why is the first wife kneeling on the ground?" As soon as the matchmaker entered the room, she saw Wang kneeling on the ground. She immediately showed an exaggerated expression, "Although it's just the beginning of spring, it's still cold and the ground is very cold. If you have anything to say, let the first wife stand up and say it, isn't it the same?"
When Cui saw the matchmaker, she felt like she was seeing an enemy. And when she saw her talking as if nothing had happened, she instantly lost her guard.
"Matchmaker Wang, get over here. What did you tell me when we were talking about the marriage? You are such a jerk. You clearly told my daughter Chunhua that she was going to marry Young Master Zheng. How come she got married to his father after the marriage?"
"Greetings to the old man and the old lady." Matchmaker Wang bowed to the old couple on the kang politely. "Old lady, what are you talking about? You are just angry, and it's okay to take it out on me, but please don't get yourself hurt. This is the marriage between the aunt and the mistress, who is the son-in-law, you shouldn't talk nonsense."
"This lady got on the bridal sedan, worshipped heaven and earth, and even entered the bridal chamber. Who is this new son-in-law? How could you be mistaken? Your daughter is clearly betrothed to Mr. Zheng Er, so why are you already thinking about his young master just after she came home? This is not a pleasant thing to say. If it gets out, what will people think?"
"If someone makes up a story that your daughter is restless and has set her sights on a young man, how will you let your daughter live her life in the future?"
This matchmaker Wang has such a big mouth, every word she said was like a slap in the face of Cui. Xiao Lan thought to herself, this matchmaker spoke to Cui so confidently, it seems that she has someone to rely on.
Lanhua was sitting next to Cui. Seeing that Cui was being bullied, she said, "Matchmaker Wang, anyone with eyes can see clearly what you did. Everyone knows what you did. My mother asked you to come here today because she wanted to get to the bottom of this matter. You are playing tricks on me and trying to make me die. What's the point? Besides, you are just a mouth-opener, but you are so shameless. It's rare to see someone like you."
"The eldest aunt was right to scold her," Matchmaker Wang glanced at Sheng Lanhua, then slapped herself in the face and said with a smile. "I just listened to the old lady and said something I didn't think of. But the truth is, I did it for the Zheng family's reputation, for the old lady, and for the aunt. I was anxious when I heard the old lady say that." Matchmaker Wang is indeed a senior matchmaker, she is flexible, but what she said is not without reason.
