An ugly girl starts off, then becomes a beauty
Chapter 162 "If you were a man, I might like you very much."
The saying "Misfortunes never come singly" is true. Just as Shen was leaving the house the next day, the Fu family got a letter from somewhere and knew how to find the right moment - they sent someone to cancel the engagement.
It was Madam Zhaoyu who sent Fang Ai to take care of all this.
Sang Ling was somewhat surprised when she heard the news, but she immediately understood it - except for Madam Zhaoyu, no one else could have arranged it so perfectly. As a mother-in-law, she still needed someone to give her a hard push and force her to be ruthless.
It is said that at that time, Shen Huajun was resting in the back of the main room where the two sides were discussing. He immediately got up from the couch and started cursing. The Fu family left not long after they stayed.
Two days later, Aunt Fang sent someone to ask the Shen family to pick her up.
After Shen Shi stepped down, without the support of the Marquis's Mansion, the Shen family had no place to vent their complaints. Nie Zhongxu was still in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and even if he returned, he would not be able to see him easily, let alone Madam Zhaoyu. But they also refused for a while, and finally Fang Niang just found a few domestic warriors to drive the group out.
In early April, Nie Zhongxu went to the palace in person to ask the emperor for permission to be transferred to govern Yuzhou. The emperor did not say much, and the decree was issued in May.
Before setting off in the middle of the month, Nie Zhongxu kowtowed to Nie Taigong, and then took Nie Guang, Su, and his own concubines and children to Yuzhou.
The journey is also long, and unless something big happens, I'm afraid we may never see each other again.
No one knew what Madam Zhaoyu had said to Nie Zhongxu that day that made the second patriarch act so drastically. He was cruel to the people around him and even to himself, and he even refused to stay in Chang'an.
Cheng found out something from Fang, who said that it was about the old marquis and the Kang family.
"Without the Kang family, there would probably be no Nie family today. Isn't it clear to Master Erlang?"
So the fact that Nie Ce almost got killed was not the key point, in the end it was all thanks to Nie Chengyong.
I just don't know whether Nie Guang is aware of the identity behind his fourth uncle. If he knew, he would not have followed his momentary evil thoughts and fed others poison for many years.
Five days after the whole family of Xifu moved out, Grandpa Nie called Sang Ling to the Hall of Right and Wrong, where Nie Ce was also there, and the two went together.
But Nie Ce was left in the yard. The old man wanted to see Sang Ling alone.
She had already prepared herself mentally, having known it since the moment she left the Gossip Hall. Nie Da was a man who was both clear-headed and confused, so he would understand her role in this.
"Even I don't know if it was a wrong idea to agree to let you marry into our family." The old man leaned against the stool and looked down at the person kneeling on the wooden steps.
Sang Ling's face was as calm as his heart. "If there is a problem, solve it. This is the rule my grandson's wife has always followed."
"So it has to be like this now, with the family divided and scattered?"
She looked up unconsciously, "Grandfather, do you think it's really good for our whole family to get together?"
Everyone was holding back their anger to some extent, but they had to tolerate each other and pretend to be harmonious. She didn't dare to think about living in such a family for the rest of her life, fighting every day as soon as she opened her eyes - that would be the end of her life.
Nie Da did not answer her question. Perhaps he already had the answer in his heart. However, as a symbol of family cohesion, he just wanted everyone to be around him. Even if there were some conflicts in daily life, they would not care in the end because of blood relationship - at least he thought he didn't care.
"If you were a man, I might like you very much." Nie Da said with a sneer, but there was a hint of contempt in his tone.
Sang Ling could understand what he said, and he teased, "Is it because I have too many ideas of my own?"
This question still remained unanswered. The old man looked at her for a long time without saying a word. She was a little pregnant now, and was actually a little tired after kneeling for so long. She spread her legs under her skirt and sat down on the ground little by little. She was still moving, but saw Nie Da waving his hand for her to leave.
Suddenly, he felt relieved. He stood up with difficulty, supported himself on the floor, bowed politely, and was about to leave the house, holding his waist, when a voice suddenly came from behind him, "I will tell Mrs. Wu that you are not allowed to interfere in family affairs in the future."
She paused, was stunned for a moment, then turned around, saluted, and said "OK" lightly.
