Stepmother in charge: Making a fortune through farming and raising her children to fight back

The event of selecting a son-in-law from the list happens every year. If a good thing can be achieved, it is considered a good thing.

Many people carried this flag and walked towards the Zheng family's house, ready to see what was going on.

Wang Ze gritted his teeth in anger behind him: "Zheng family, you dare to do this to my brother Yun? Just wait and see how I will deal with you guys."

Wang Ye pulled him aside, somewhat puzzled, and said, "Cousin, since the Zheng family is willing to help you, it would be beneficial for Brother Yun to marry into their family. When he enters officialdom, he will need a large family to take care of him. Isn't this a good thing? Why should we stop it?"

"Forget it, let's not talk about the Zheng family taking him away without prior consent, let's talk about their methods." Wang Ze sneered, his tone full of disdain: "Normally, if you like someone's family, you should inform the adults in advance, but they actually took advantage of the situation and took him away directly, trying to make a fait accompli. How can a woman from such a family be good? They might even kill him in the future. What's more, Brother Yun has good grades this year and can become a juren next year. This kind of family is really good at finding people, and they picked him who seems to have no background. No, I have to go back and tell my godmother, she must have a way."

Wang Ye kept scratching his head. Thinking of Brother Yun's personality, he felt that what his cousin said made some sense.

With his talent, he will definitely make great achievements in his career in the future. If he marries a merchant girl, it will not be a good idea as the two will not be a good match in the end.

"How about this, you go back to find Ruyi'an first and let him prepare himself, while I go back to find my father." Wang Ye made a decision immediately: "My father is in the house over there. It seems that he has some business dealings with Zheng Yuanwai. Maybe he can mediate between them."

The two people immediately went their separate ways.

Yun Zhenzhen was packing her things in the inn. After today's results came out, they could go home. They had been wandering around the streets these days and bought a lot of things, which had to be crammed in to make room.

Fortunately, there were two carriages when we came here. We can load some on each side, so there should be no problem.

As for Daqiang, she planned to let him stay in the house and clean it from time to time, so that they could come and live here when the time comes.

Just as I was thinking, I saw Lai Fu running in from outside, sweating profusely, with Wang Ze following behind him.

"Godmother, something terrible has happened. Brother Yun has been taken away by a group of people."

……

the other side.

Zheng family.

The wealthy families even had the streets outside paved with blue bricks, which looked very luxurious.

Several big red lanterns were hung under the eaves, and even the stone lions at the door were pasted with big wedding characters. The old women guarding the door were wearing red, and passers-by only needed to take a glance to know that the Zheng family was preparing for a wedding.

"Congratulations, Brother Zheng. I heard that your family has tied the knot with this year's top scorer. It's a match made in heaven. I'm so envious."

"I didn't expect that you guys would be able to find a son-in-law right away. We've heard of this person too. He doesn't have any family background, but he's made it to where he is today on his own. He's a talented person."

"That's right, we had a great time at this wedding today..."

The guests only received the notice today and immediately packed up their things to come over to congratulate. Although everyone felt that the son-in-law selection was a bit hasty, this kind of thing had happened before, so they could still accept it.

Everyone came with gifts and was led in by the butler in order and arranged in their own seats.

It is almost noon now and most of the guests have arrived. The whole yard is bustling with activity. Everyone looks towards the door from time to time, looking forward to today's protagonist.

However, Mrs. Zheng and Mr. Zheng never showed up, and it was the housekeeper who was taking care of various things outside.

In the room.

The expressions of several people in the Zheng family were somewhat calm.

"Yun'er, it's getting late. You should change into your wedding attire quickly, or you'll be late." Madam Zheng said in a gentle voice, "We've also inquired about the top candidate. He's a good man. He's talented and good-looking, but his family background is a bit lacking. We chose this marriage for you with our own considerations. Don't be disobedient and act like a child again."

Zheng Yun, the eldest daughter of the Zheng family, sat on a stool with a cold expression on her face: "Dad and Mom, how can you do this? Even if you want to find a good marriage for your daughter, you should discuss it with the other party's family. You just snatched her back. What's the big deal? Although she is just a scholar, she is well-known in the eyes of the governor. I'm afraid this won't work."

"What nonsense are you spouting, kid?" Master Zheng frowned and scolded, "This son-in-law selection process has been a long-standing tradition. Even if your parents are looking for a son-in-law, they'll definitely choose the best one for you. The Yun family is just a farming family. Being able to marry into our family is already a high-ranking branch. Why would he be dissatisfied? As for your family, it won't be too late to talk to them after you two get married. If you're too late, this person might be snatched away by someone else. You won't be able to find someone with both good family background and talent in the future."

"Get out of here right now! The guests are already here. Do you really want to embarrass your parents?"

"Dad, Mom..." Zheng Yun gritted her teeth, looking reluctant. "Anyway, I won't agree to this kind of marriage that's not legitimate. If you want to marry, go ahead and do it yourself."

When she got angry, her whole body began to tremble and even her throat felt a little uncomfortable.

If she had known earlier, she should have sent people to wait at the place where the results were announced, so that the students could leave quickly after reading the results to avoid being harassed by the Zheng family.

She was just too concerned about her parents' reputation, which was why she was roasted on the fire, but she would not gamble her whole life on it.

At this moment, another butler who had just been sent came running in: "Master, Madam, the son-in-law is outside now... He just didn't want to come and was yelling that he would report to the police, so we knocked him out and brought him here. Now he can go out to pay his respects..."

"He's still unwilling. It's really strange. How many rural people want to crawl into our house but can't." Zheng Yuanwai said with disdain: "At this point, he has to agree even if he doesn't want to. Yun'er, if you don't listen to me, don't blame me..."

"Cough cough cough..."

Zheng Yun didn't have time to listen to what his father said. He started coughing violently, and then he lost his breath and fainted.

“Yun’er!!!”

Mrs. Zheng hurried over to catch her daughter, then looked at her husband with a helpless look on her face.
