Hearing Xu Miaomiao's words, the man became a little uneasy. He immediately stood up, looked at the woman in front of him and said, "You are sacrificing your relatives for the sake of justice. Do you think that if this gets out, your Song family will still have a good official position? If I die here today, you and Song Wushao will not be able to escape. I want to see how others will treat you for being so disloyal and unfilial!"
Hearing the man say this, the people in the hall immediately frowned in dissatisfaction, looking at the people on the stage who were silent, but began to whisper, talking about the man one by one.
"Mrs. Xu is so righteous that she can do such a thing for us. Who would have thought that the man would not repent when the time came and still wanted Mrs. Xu to save their lives? It's really unlucky for Mr. Song's family to have such a relative."
"Yes, this man only thinks about himself. He doesn't care about the reputation of the Song family. I think he is really greedy for selling illegal salt. He was well-fed in the capital and lived in peace. Now it seems that he is not a good person."
"That's right," the people on the other side echoed. Although the price of salt is high now, the salt given by the government is good after all. Those who sell private salt also mixed a lot of fakes at the time and sold this stuff to us. It's really unkind and unjust. What qualifications do you have to judge others for being disloyal and unfilial now?"
Listening to everyone's conversation, the man lowered his head in shame and couldn't utter a word for a long time. The woman, who had been standing at the door for a while, finally couldn't bear it anymore and pushed towards the bailiff, ready to walk in.
Xu Miaomiao was a little surprised to see the woman. She thought the woman went out last night and would not return to the mansion by herself when she saw no one. Unexpectedly, she followed him to the government office. The woman looked at Xu Miaomiao with tears in her eyes and cried aggrievedly: "Although you are not Song Wushao's bright and beautiful wife, but you married us back, we are also very sincere to you. Now that my family is in chaos, you can't completely write us off and ask your Song family to single us out. After all, I am Song Wushao's aunt, and he is Song Wushao's uncle. Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. You pushed us out directly for your own sake. It's really unkind and unjust."
"You!" Xu Guo, who was behind him, became angry when he heard these words and was about to take a step forward, but was immediately stopped by Xu Miaomiao.
The woman understood the meaning of these words. Now she just wanted to drag Song Wushao into the water to prove that they were in the same group. Song Wushao rebelled, so they reported them to the authorities. If he said so, wouldn't Song Wushao also become a criminal?
Xu Miaomiao certainly understood that this woman was pretending to be pitiful in order to win sympathy and to take advantage of Song Wushao. But even if she met herself, she had designed this drama and would never let anyone from the Song family be implicated.
Xu Miaomiao stepped forward, looked at the woman and said, "Although my Song family is not a big family in the capital, everyone knows that my husband is very kind to others. Although I am a woman and I opened a shop by myself, I am also diligent and honest, and I have not mixed anything with fraud. In the matter of the drunken crab house and the restaurant, I even offended everyone in my industry in order to be fair. But how come I have become a disloyal and unfilial person in the eyes of my uncle and aunt? What kind of evil things did my uncle and aunt do to make someone like me become what I am now?"
Xu Miaomiao's few words completely turned the scene upside down. When everyone heard Xu Miaomiao's painting, they looked at the woman with some strange expressions. Some people even began to whisper to each other, saying, "Yes, I have heard that although Madam Xu is a woman, she opened a department store and everyone disdains to go to her place, but she is okay. Since she exposed the fact that the owner of the Drunken Crab House sold rotten crabs, if it weren't for her, we might still be eating those rotten crabs and we don't know what disease we have contracted."
"Yes, yes. And the restaurant incident involved fake wine. I had a splitting headache after drinking it. All this was thanks to Madam Xu. Why would such a kind and fair person become like this to her loved ones?"
Someone on the side spoke up. When the woman heard what was said around her, her brows twitched. She squeezed out two tears and looked at Xu Miaomiao with some grievance and said, "My niece-in-law, Wu Shao didn't want to marry you at first, but you put a knife to his neck and forced him to marry you! Later, it was because of our dissuasion that he accepted you sincerely. If it weren't for this, how would we treat such a rude and unreasonable person like you? We can't just watch our nephew fall into the hands of a shrew like you. Even though I was reluctant when you got married, I was good to you later. Now you can't frame us just to clear yourselves."
"What nonsense are you talking about? It's obviously you who blamed Mr. Song and Song Weiwei, but now you blame it on Sister Xu."
Xuguo became extremely angry when he heard the nonsense these two people were talking about, and he stepped forward to argue with them.
Xu Miaomiao immediately stopped him and shook her head at Xuguo.
If the woman is pitiful, then Xu Miaomiao is even more pitiful than her. Xu Miaomiao picked up the handkerchief and twitched twice. The woman was a little puzzled when she saw Xu Miaomiao crying.
Xu Miaomiao pretended to be pitiful and said aggrievedly, "I forced Song Wushao to marry me. Didn't my aunt know what that meant? At that time, the two siblings were kicked out of the house. In order to covet the money left by their parents, their uncle and aunt made them wear thin clothes in the cold winter and eventually kicked them out."
Xu Miaomiao twitched and continued, "I felt sorry for them and wanted to take them in, but he is a foreigner after all. If this goes on, even if I have to bear the infamy of those prostitutes, I don't care. But what about him? He will be an official in the court in the future, so I had to force him to marry me. Even if he doesn't like me anymore, he can have a legitimate reason to divorce me. He can say that it was because I forced him to marry me, not because he is rich now and wants to abandon his wife. All I planned was to give them a place to stay, but uncle and aunt, what about you? Just for a little money, you want to kill them!"
