Chen was born into a farming and scholarly family. She was brought up in a secluded academy and had a gentle personality. Wang was different. She was born into a merchant family and had her own ideas since she was young. She was very good at accounting. Yu Tang's grandfather proposed to Yu Bo because of this. Therefore, Wang had a straightforward personality and liked to speak directly to her family.

Seeing Yu Tang's bewildered look, the two sisters-in-law couldn't help but burst into laughter. Wang was even quicker to speak than Chen was to say, "Did you already know that Madam Li came to our house to cause trouble? It's a pity that you came back late, otherwise you would have seen Madam Li's vicious look! Humph! You want to bully our family? No way!"

She had seen such a hot-tempered aunt when she was a child. Later, her aunt spoke less and less, and became less and less spirited. She was more likely to be tolerant when encountering things and people, and less likely to speak her mind directly.

Is it because of the circumstances?

In her previous life, her family members died or dispersed, and her son and niece had a hard life without even a relative to support them. Naturally, she was afraid of causing trouble for her son and niece, so she tried to keep things quiet everywhere.

In this life, everything went smoothly, and the family was prosperous like sesame blossoms, one section higher than the other, and it was about to become prosperous. The eldest aunt straightened her back, and even if it was the wife of the prefect, let alone Mrs. Li, she would dare to defend herself against unreasonable things.

Such elders not only made her feel proud, but also gratified and proud.

One day, she will be able to be a support and a source of confidence for her parents and elders, and it will be worth it for her parents and elders to protect her from the wind and rain when she was young, giving her a chance to repay them.

Yu Tang's eyes were slightly blurred as he stepped forward and took his aunt's arm, laughing softly, "What do you mean by that? I just went out for a while, but when I came back, I felt like everything was turned upside down. Please tell me the whole story!"

Chen patted her shoulder with a smile, scolded her, "How do you talk to your aunt like that?", then poured her a cup of tea and motioned for everyone to sit down and talk.

Yu Tang sat down next to Wang.

Wang then smiled and told her everything that had happened before.

It turned out that on the second day of the Chinese New Year, Li Duan went to Hangzhou to pay New Year's greetings to the Gu family. He never expected that the eldest master Gu was ill, and Gu Xi, his father and stepmother all went to the eldest house to visit him. After he arrived, the eldest master Gu just showed up and handed him over to the steward of the second house of the Gu family. The steward didn't know what he was thinking. He set up a table for a banquet and left him alone in the guest room. He didn't arrange anyone to accompany him or serve him. Li Duan felt a little unhappy in his heart. He found an excuse and rushed back to Lin'an City that night. On the eighth day of the Chinese New Year, someone from the second house of the Gu family suddenly came and said that the second master Gu invited Li Duan to his home to talk. Li Duan didn't dare to neglect it. He changed into new clothes and went to Hangzhou City with a valuable gift.

Who knew that Mr. Gu and Li Duan drank tea for half a day, and tactfully stated that Miss Gu was still young and the originally scheduled wedding date had to be postponed for a few years and would be discussed again when the time came.

Li Duan was furious when he heard this.

Although the Gu family did not explicitly say they wanted to cancel the engagement, it meant they were dragging their feet.

He asked for the reason.

The Gu family only said that they had read Miss Gu's fortune and that she should not get married in the next few years, otherwise her life would be in danger. The Gu family was terrified and decided to wait two years before making a decision.

This reason sounded righteous and serious. Li Duan cared a lot about this marriage and did not want to break up with the Gu family, so he had no choice but to follow the Gu family's wishes and practiced Tai Chi with the second old man Gu for a long time to resolve the matter.

But he is not the kind of person who has no opinion when faced with problems.

As soon as he left Gu's house, he spent money and sent someone to inquire about the matter.

Soon, the Gu family heard about the feud between the Li family and the Yu family.

What happened was a fact, and he couldn't deny it, but he still had to think long and hard about how to change his customers' impression of him.

He returned to Lin'an City first.

As a result, as soon as he got to the dock, he found Miki spying on him furtively.

He was already angry, so he grabbed Sanmu and interrogated him severely.

Sanmu said nothing, and Li Duan gained nothing, but cast a suspicious look at the Yu family.

After returning home, Lin immediately learned about this from the servants around her son.

She believed that the Yu family was causing trouble, thinking that her son would end in the next two years, and she was counting on Gu Chang, the eldest son of the Gu family, to help support him. What would Li Duan do if there were changes in the marriage between the Gu family and the Li family? What should they do with the Li family?

You know, their family and the Li family have separated, and there are countless people watching them. Many of them want to make fun of them, and even more of them want to take the opportunity to gain some benefits from them.

She was anxious and angry, so she came to the door with a few strong servants.

Chen was alone at home at the time and didn't dare to open the door. Mrs. Chen thought something was wrong and quietly ran out the back door to look for Wang.

Wang was no pushover, she came over with great momentum and started arguing with Lin on the spot.

After all, Lin was raised as a lady from a noble family. She had been smooth sailing for so many years, and always gave in to Wang whenever there was a conflict. She had never seen Wang's vulgar behavior before, and after a few rounds she was so angry that she fainted and was carried back by the maid.

Wang was still not satisfied after she finished her speech, and said, "If I hadn't been concerned about your marriage proposal this year, why would I have let her go like this? I must chase her down the street and let the villagers help judge the case. Don't think that it's great just because they have a scholar. Do you think that everything bad that happens to their family in the future will be related to our family?"

Perhaps because of what happened just now, she was a little angry when she said this.

Chen quickly poured Wang a cup of tea and soothed her, "Don't be angry. They just want us to get angry too. If we get angry, we'll lose."

Wang took a few deep breaths and murmured, "I'm not angry, I'm not angry."

Yu Tang was ashamed, secretly blaming her eldest cousin for not listening to her and not asking Liu, the pear seller, to keep an eye on Li Duan. But then she thought, if the Li family wasn't informed of this, what difference would it make from a night march in gorgeous robes?

We have to let the Li family know.

Just make them jump.

Yu Tang snorted in his heart and said to his aunt, "The Lin family didn't go to the wrong place. I was the one who told the Gu family about the grievances between their family and ours."

Wang and Chen were stunned.

Since she had returned safely from Hangzhou, the elders in her family no longer worried about her safety, so she had nothing to hide. She told Wang and Chen everything that had happened, and said, "This was my idea! Why should we forgive the Li family for just giving us a gift when they messed up our family? Can't we also cause some trouble for them?"

In the previous life, wasn’t the Yu family destroyed by the Li family?

If she had not been reborn and had no memory of her past life, wouldn't the Yu family still be framed by the Li family just like in the previous life!

Yu Tang said coldly: "I wanted to let it go, but those evildoers will not let us go. The more we try to avoid and tolerate them, the more they will push their limits and do more evil."

Upon hearing this, Chen was so anxious that she jumped up and down, saying, "You are too ignorant, child! How long will it take for grievances to be repaid? It is better to have less trouble than more. We are all fine, so don't stir up trouble."

Wang, on the other hand, was the opposite of Chen. She felt that Yu Tang's words were just too much for her temper.

She said to Chen: "Atang is right. Why should we suffer because we are soft-hearted? They calculated that we should forgive them just because they apologized to others. If I had known that it was Atang who did it, I should have admitted it when I quarreled with the Li family just now. I should have dragged her to the street to ask the villagers to judge the matter. Things have turned out like this. Although our Yu family is embarrassed, their Li family is even more embarrassed. The Gu family actually wants to postpone the engagement!"

The reason why Li Duan is looked up to by people today is not because he has climbed up the big tree of the Gu family?

If the Li family didn't have the Gu family as their in-laws, it would just be a fourth-rank official. What's there to be afraid of!

"This..." Chen felt vaguely that this was not good, but was relieved by what Wang said. She didn't know what to say for a while.

Yu Tang simply said, "Mom, when two meet on a narrow road, the bravest win. I used to be too cautious. I would think twice before doing this and think carefully before doing that. What was the result?"

As a result, her uncle and cousin both suffered misfortune.

If she had left the Li family earlier in her previous life, would everything have been different?

There were tears in Yu Tang's eyes.

"Madam, Atang is right!" Yu Wen's voice suddenly appeared in the room.

Everyone turned to look.

Yu Wen came back at some unknown time and was standing at the door of the house with a serious expression, listening to their conversation.

"Husband!"

"Second Uncle!"

"Father!"

The three of them greeted Yu Wen at the same time.

Yu Wen smiled, put his hand on Yu Tang's shoulder, and said to Wang: "Sister-in-law is wise. Wolves are ferocious and cruel. We have to be more ferocious than wolves to become good hunters." After that, he bowed deeply to Wang and said, "Thanks to your help today, I won't say polite words. I will ask Atang's mother to cook a few dishes in the kitchen. You and brother can come home for a drink."

Seeing her brother-in-law thank her so solemnly, Wang blushed, waved her hands helplessly, and said, "Uncle, you're too polite."

Yu Wen turned around and said to Chen: "If you encounter such a thing again in the future, just consult with your sister-in-law and listen to her."

When Wang was arguing with Lin just now, Chen was already full of respect for Wang. After hearing what Yu Wen said, she admired Wang even more and hurriedly thanked Wang.

The two sisters-in-law were being polite to each other, but Yu Wen was already questioning Yu Tang with a fierce face: "How dare you be so bold as to go to Hangzhou City like this? Could it be that your father and brother were just setting it up? Why didn't you tell me about this in advance?"

Didn’t she call her eldest cousin?

Seeing his father lose his temper, Yu Tang dared only to secretly retort in his heart, but he kept his head down, looking as if he had done something wrong.

But Yu Wen's next words made Yu Tang couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"If I had known you had this idea, I should have gone with you!"
