After the separation, the family had a lot of fish and meat every day, and the best was furious
Chapter 179 I Won't Marry You Even If You Kill Me
"Dad, I don't agree with this marriage. Lu Cailiang is cruel and ruthless. Even if his family has a fortune, it will not fall into our hands.
Dad, have you forgotten what I told you yesterday? When he was captured by the county magistrate, it was said that everyone who was rescued was seriously injured and was in a state worse than death.
It was heard that several of those people had suicidal tendencies. Shen Rou didn't know what Lu Cailiang had done to them, but she knew that they must have been tortured to the point of collapse.
She couldn't even imagine whether marrying Lu Cailiang would be more terrifying than going to hell.
When Xu followed Shen Rou out, she was also shocked by the large amount of betrothal gifts.
Back then, when Shen Jizu married her, he only gave her six taels of silver and fifty kilograms of rice. She had never seen so many good things before.
"Miss Shen, that's not what you said. Mr. Lu is handsome, and what happened some time ago was just a misunderstanding.
If that was true, then why did the authorities finally release him? Because he wasn't the one who did it.
Today, I, Matchmaker Jin, will tell you the truth. Although the incident some time ago was a misunderstanding, it also damaged the reputation of the Lu family and Mr. Lu.
Otherwise, with your family's current conditions, you are not worthy of Master Lu, but Master Lu has fallen in love with your daughter.
He confronted Mr. Lu yesterday and said that he would not marry anyone else but your Shen Rou. His sincerity moved Mr. Lu.
Mr. Lu has only one son, and he always responds to everything Mr. Lu says. In addition, people outside say that Mr. Lu is a homosexual.
Now that I have brought my wife home, this rumor has been dispelled. Rumors stop at the wise. Mr. Shen is a scholar, so he must understand the meaning of this sentence better than I do. "
Shen Jizu and his mother agreed with the matchmaker's words. They hadn't taken their eyes off the things in the yard since they saw them.
"I understand. Did Mr. Lu really agree to this betrothal gift? Or... or did Mr. Lu come up with it himself?"
Shen Jizu asked again uncertainly. There were too many of these things. If the Lu family just gave them away, it would be enough for their family to eat for a year.
If he could really become a relative of the Lu family, he would never have to worry about food and clothing. Shen Jizu felt that he had hit the jackpot this time.
Matchmaker Jin twisted her fat body, threw her big red handkerchief at Shen Jizu, and laughed.
"Of course, that's true. Everyone in the Lu family agrees with this marriage. Master Shen, your good days are coming soon.
Moreover, Mr. Lu also said that Master Shen, you are a scholar and a learned man. If you still want to pursue a career in officialdom in the future, he will help you.
Don't you know how wealthy the Lu family is? This is a marriage that's hard to find even with a lantern."
The matchmaker's mouth is sweeter than honey and she is very eloquent.
Even if the truth was not what she said, and the Lu family was made notorious by Lu Cailiang, this was the first time that Lu Cailiang said he wanted to get married.
Although Shen Rou was just the daughter of a scholar, and Shen Jizu, the scholar, had accomplished nothing, at least Shen Rou was a woman.
As long as Lu Cailiang asked, the Lu family would be willing to marry a woman, no matter what her status was, to Lu Cailiang.
I also felt sad that my son had finally become a normal person after being suppressed by the government.
Every word the matchmaker said hit the mark exactly what Shen Jizu was thinking, and she was also very clear about Shen Jizu's desire to take the imperial examination.
As long as this matter succeeds, her reputation as Jin the Matchmaker in the matchmaking world will be even higher, and even gay men will be able to find wives for her.
"Ji Zu, it's such a good thing, what else do you want? I, an old woman, will be the first to agree to this."
When Shen Rou saw Shen Jizu like this, her heart was half dead. Shen's mother even came out to join in the fun. She didn't understand Lu Cailiang at all. She only knew that Lu was a rich man and his mind was full of money.
"I won't marry. Grandma, if you like the Lu family, you can marry them yourself. I will never marry Lu Cailiang even if I die."
Mother Shen glanced at the matchmaker, then immediately walked up to Shen Rou and pinched her ear. Didn’t she keep saying that she wanted to marry a rich young man?
Finally a young man is willing to marry her, why is she still throwing a tantrum?
"Shen Rou, have you been kicked in the head by a donkey or stuck in a door? You don't want such a good marriage. If you don't marry Mr. Lu, do you want to marry the hunter from the next village?"
When Mrs. Xu saw her daughter's ears were red from being hit by the elm, she felt very distressed, but she couldn't hit Shen's mother.
"Mother-in-law, please let go first. You're hurting Rou'er."
Shen's mother ignored her, but Shen Rou would never let her mother control her. In front of Lu's matchmaker, she pushed Shen's mother to the ground.
She stood up and declared, "I said, I won't marry you, I won't marry you, I won't marry you... Just move these things back to where you got them from. I, Shen Rou, will never marry you, a homosexual, in my lifetime."
With this temper, this character, and this behavior, the matchmakers have another good gossip to talk about in their circle this year.
"Master Shen, marriage has always been decided by parents and matchmakers. Please give me a message from you and your wife so that I can report back."
The matchmaker's smile tightened. She was not angry. She had seen too many women like Shen Rou and knew countless ways to deal with them.
Shen Jizu and Xu looked at each other and were both satisfied with the Lu family.
But seeing her daughter like this, Xu finally softened her heart.
"Husband, Rou'er has always been well-behaved and not a good child who gets angry. She doesn't want to do it this time, and I don't want to force her."
Shen Rou also nodded. She knew very well that with Lu Cailiang's attitude towards her yesterday, she would not have a good time if she married him.
"Dad, I beg you, Lu Cailiang did such despicable things to others, he will not treat me well. The Lu family married me just to clear Lu Cailiang's stigma of being a homosexual.
Dad, you are a scholar, you should think more about me and not be blinded by those money-making things."
Scholars pride themselves on being noble. Shen Rou wanted to use these words to awaken Shen Jizu's greed, but she was still too young and did not understand human nature.
After hearing this, Shen Jizu was not moved by Shen Rou, but a little angry. Isn't this a loss of face for him?
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was very satisfied with the Lu family's marriage, but Shen Rou said that he was only after money. He was a scholar, so how could he have anything to do with money?
Outside the Shen family compound, there were many villagers watching. He was going to be a high-ranking official in the future.
"Shen Rou, shut up. I have my own opinion on this matter."
Shen Jizu's mind was working fast. He had already made up his mind that he must make this marriage with the Lu family happen.
There are always quarrels in every marriage. Shen Rou and Lu Cailiang just need some time to get along with each other.
What's more, the Lu family has so much land and also said that they would help him pursue a career in politics. He must seize such a good opportunity.
Now all he needs is a reason so that Shen Rou can't blame him and can marry Shen Rou to the Lu family.
