Chapter 274
Su Miao was small in stature and got out first. The person who came in turned out to be Huang Xiaoya, who had almost gotten engaged to Brother Xiang before.
She is thinner now, and her appearance has not changed much, but she is full of gloom, there is no light in her eyes, and her behavior is a little crazy. She is completely different from when Su Miao met her half a year ago.
At that time, she was fair and gentle. Although she pretended to be very weak, she always revealed a bit of arrogance inadvertently. That arrogance has completely disappeared from her.
When Su Xiang and Yang Danniu came out and saw her, they were also surprised. This person had disappeared from their world for a long time, but they didn't expect her to suddenly appear on such an important day.
"It really is you! Yang Da Niu! You deliberately ruined my engagement with Su Xiang just to replace me and marry him."
Huang Xiaoya pointed at Yang Danniu and shouted, her tone full of unwillingness.
Seeing some confused relatives start to whisper, Yang Da Nv frowned and said, "I broke into your house to protect Su Xiang from being deceived into marriage by you, not to steal your man."
"Then you are robbing me now, aren't you? It's Su Xiang who should be marrying today, not you! You are using such despicable means to separate Su Xiang and me. You have no moral integrity at all!"
Huang Xiaoya spoke with such conviction that Yang Danniu didn't know how to refute her for a moment. After all, it was indeed she who ruined their engagement, and it was also she who started dating Su Xiang right after that. Although her reasons were aboveboard, she still felt a little guilty when she faced Huang Xiaoya.
"Oh! There's no way to quibble! Look everyone! This is how that morally corrupt person, Yang Da Niu, stole my marriage."
Many people in the village knew that Su Xiang and Huang Xiaoya were going to get engaged. After all, on the day of the engagement, just like today, they borrowed all the bicycles in the village and loaded up their bicycles with so many gifts for the engagement in a grand manner.
Later, when that incident happened, the uncles and aunts who went with him felt ashamed and kept it a secret, refusing to talk about it.
So many people only know that something unexpected happened and it failed, but they are not quite clear as to why it failed.
In addition, Su Xiang's partner soon changed to Yang Danniu. Everyone thought that the Huang family changed their mind at the last minute and the matchmaker found someone else, so they stopped investigating. But today it seems that there is another hidden story!
People from inside and outside the yard gathered around. Yang Danniu felt that she had no way to defend herself and was very anxious. Su Xiang's face also darkened.
When Huang Xiaoya saw Su Miao, she remembered that she had gone to her home with Su Xiang, so she wanted to come over and hold her hand: "Sister, you know what happened back then. It was because Yang Danniu slandered me in public that my marriage with your cousin fell through. Otherwise, you would have to call me sister-in-law today."
Su Miao took a step back, not wanting her to pull her, and said seriously, "Huang Xiaoya, your family had evil intentions and wanted to deceive Brother Xiang. Fortunately, my sister-in-law accidentally found out and stopped your evil behavior. Our family didn't publicize this matter because our uncles were kind and worried that it would be difficult for you to get married in the future.
As for Brother Xiang and his wife dating, that's their own business. It's reasonable, legal, and has nothing to do with you. I don't understand why you suddenly come here and say this.
If you really had feelings for my brother Xiang, you wouldn't have followed your brother's instructions and planned to frame him. The facts prove that you were just unwilling to accept that you didn't succeed."
Huang Xiaoya's secrets were exposed by Su Miao, and her face changed again and again.
Then, as if grasping at the last straw, she shouted to Su Xiang, "A Xiang, I really didn't mean to lie to you. My brother forced me to do all this. Let's make peace. You don't have to give my brother a betrothal gift. I will marry you."
In her expectant eyes, Su Xiang said coldly: "I don't know you well, my wife is an older girl."
Huang Xiaoya's eager eyes were gradually replaced by despair. Before she could plead again, an angry shout came from outside the door:
"Huang Xiaoya! You are such a disgrace!"
Huang Chengzhi rushed in with his wife and an elderly couple. The old woman came in, grabbed Huang Xiaoya's hand and tried to drag her out.
He was still yelling and cursing, "You are the daughter-in-law my family bought, and you dare to come to complain to your ex-partner! I will beat you to death when I get home."
"No! I won't go back! I didn't get a marriage certificate with your son! I have nothing to do with him! I won't go to your house! I won't go to your house!"
Huang Xiaoya struggled and refused to leave, but her brother slapped her twice in the face and then dragged her away.
After the troublemakers left, the atmosphere instantly cooled down. Fifth Uncle stepped out to smooth things over: "Hey! It's a great day, don't let these people spoil the fun. Come on, serve the food! Serve the food! Everyone, please take your seats."
He wiped the cold sweat from his head. Fortunately, he was just about to pick up his old father, otherwise he would have been furious if he had seen what happened just now.
Under the leadership of several aunts, the yard returned to its previous festive mood, and my seventh uncle was also brought in.
Su Xiang's parents were both gone, and he had been raised by his seventh uncle since he was a child. Naturally, he had to treat him as the VIP. He poured him tea and kowtowed, then took Yang Danniu to eat something quickly to fill their stomachs, and then began to toast to each table.
No one said anything openly about what had just happened, but they definitely spoke in private. Some knew the first part, some knew the second part, and when they compared themselves, the story was complete.
Sitting among a group of sisters-in-law, the fifth aunt explained, "Back then, the eldest girl heard that the Huang family was trying to trick her into marriage, so she wanted to marry her off first and then turn against Ah Xiang, leaving him penniless. This saved our family from disaster, and naturally the marriage with her family fell through. It wasn't because of us, Ah Xiang, who abandoned her after having an affair!"
Everyone suddenly realized that apart from Su Xiang's uncles and aunts who went with him that day, no one else knew about this matter.
"So that's how it is! I was wondering why everything went wrong all of a sudden."
"Hey! Do you know how she is now?"
The aunts pulled her and asked her to speak quickly.
"I have a relative who's a neighbor of her husband's family in the city. She told me everything. Her brother used the same bride price to marry her off to the lame youngest son of the family. The husband's family said they would get married after she gave birth to a son, and her brother actually agreed."
"That's too much of a bully, isn't it? Have you bought me a drink?"
"No! They just took her home and said they would wait until the baby's full moon celebration to have a big party!"
"Then what's the point of coming to us now? Is her in-laws treating her badly? She doesn't look pregnant, so how can she get pregnant?"
The ladies at the table looked eager for gossip and urged the person who knew the story to finish it quickly.
