At the beginning of the famine, I became famous all over the world with my useless system

"Sister-in-law Gu, my father said that if I didn't marry into the Jia family, not only would he die, but my elder brother, who works as a county official, would also be implicated! When my mother heard that my elder brother was implicated, she even advised me not to be so willful...

"Yesterday, my eldest brother, who hasn't written to the family in years, sent a message saying that if I don't agree, he'll bring soldiers to escort me. Even if I hang myself, he'll send my body to the Jia Mansion!"

Lin listened to Song Lingshuang's words and keenly realized that she might have vaguely guessed what was going on.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be so nervous, and she wouldn't come to me, an outsider, for 'help'.

So she asked tentatively, "Just because you're not marrying into the Jia Mansion, how does that implicate the village head and your brother? Lingshuang, since you've come to me, just tell me the truth. Otherwise, I don't know how I can help you."

Song Lingshuang hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "I don't know the details. I only know that if Daya and I were to marry into the Jia family, we would have no chance of survival. Second Sister-in-law Gu, I know Daya is engaged, and I also have..."

Having said that, she looked at Gu Ermiao with her eyes moving around, and found that there was no love in the other person's eyes when he looked at her, only sympathy, and she couldn't help but shudder all over.

Heartbroken, she cried even harder, sobbing, "Sister-in-law Gu, no matter what, you must save me and Daya! Even if I have to work like a slave, I will repay you!"

Everyone sighed when they heard this.

Although Song Lingshuang is arrogant and domineering, she is still a young girl after all.

She used to be so bright and beautiful, but now she is completely different from the one who cries pitifully and begs others humbly.

Gu Ermiao looked at her and couldn't help but think of Qiao Xiaowan.

I don’t know how she is doing in the Jia family.

But no matter how painful it is, it is definitely a hundred times better than following her cruel mother.

Gou listened to Song Lingshuang's crying and never expected that the daughter of the headman would be treated like this. When she thought of her own daughter, she couldn't help but cry too.

"Poor Ling Shuang! I thought only poor families like ours would rely on daughters marrying off to improve their status. I never expected that..."

Lin Qing looked at the sobbing Song Lingshuang, feeling a mixture of emotions.

There is admiration, but more of it is bitterness.

If the Jia family is really overthrown in the future, the headman's family will inevitably be implicated.

How should Song Lingshuang deal with it then?

Du Shaoyou saw that everyone looked depressed and knew that they must be thinking about the horrible things they had just heard.

As a witness, he felt even more sorry for the girl in front of him, and asked in a slow voice:

"Young lady, please don't be so anxious. I just heard you say that your father was in a hurry to leave. If he had gone to the Jia Mansion to discuss marriage, even if it was to take a concubine, he would certainly not be so casual. Why don't you calm down and think carefully. What have you missed?"

Song Lingshuang looked up at him when she heard the voice. Through her tearful eyes, she felt that the young man speaking in front of her was as gentle as the breeze, and his few words calmed her down.

He is really different from all the men I have met before!

Perhaps because someone was guiding and comforting her, Song Lingshuang stopped crying and sobbed:

"Yes, I remember now. My father was furious when he left the house! It was all because he met a stranger in the side hall. I vaguely heard a few words from him. The man said that my father and my uncle had a conflict with the lender because the interest rate was too high, and it even...even resulted in a death."
