Chapter 267: The Third Household is Involved in the Conspiracy

(Girls' Literature)

After hearing what Shen Zhu said, Shen Zhang frowned. She was reluctant to believe that her most proud son would actually fall in love with her own sister-in-law. If this was discovered, even the slightest sign of trouble would be a big blow to Shen Ziju's future. Over the years, their family has been protecting their reputation, isn't it all for Shen Ziju's future? Farmers like them who don't have a strong family background and financial support can only hope for real talent and a good reputation. If this reputation is ruined, it will have a great impact on his future.

When Shen Zhu saw Shen Zhang's frown and she was lost in thought, she knew that her mother was persuaded by her again.

"Mom, it's better to hurry up than to late. My little brother is going to take the imperial examination soon. If he passes, it will be even more difficult. Do you think the Xiao family will be willing to let go of such a good son-in-law as my little brother? They will not give up even if they die. Also, people may say that my little brother did not want the village girl as his wife because he just passed the imperial examination. If we do it now, people will not gossip too much."

Shen Zhang thought what Shen Zhu said made sense, so she said, "But if this is not done well, I'm afraid our family's reputation will be ruined. Are you sure they won't expose this?"

Shen Zhu snorted and said, "They definitely wouldn't dare. How could a bunch of country bumpkins have the courage? If they start to make a scene, wouldn't they be the ones who will be embarrassed in the end?"

"You girl, don't always act like a bumpkin."

Shen Zhang gently tapped Shen Zhu's forehead. Although she thought the same as Shen Zhu, that he was a bumpkin, but their family lived with a group of bumpkins and could not get rid of this title, which made her feel uncomfortable and felt like a pearl dropped into the mud. She just wanted to get rid of this kind of life as soon as possible, and the biggest hope to get rid of this kind of life was that Shen Ziju would be promoted to an official.

"Mom, as long as my brother passes the imperial examination and becomes an official, we will be the daughter and wife of an official. When the time comes, my brother will marry a daughter of a wealthy family, and we will live in the city. No one will know that we used to live in a place like this. But if my brother marries Xiao Ping'er, and I marry that Song Dashan, won't we have a bunch of country bumpkin relatives? Even if we live in a big house and have servants, as long as those country bumpkin relatives come, even the servants will laugh at us. Mom, do you want that?"

Shen Zhu's blow was heavy. Shen Zhang's expression changed immediately, and she finally made up her mind.

"Okay, let's do it as you said."

Shen Zhang said. She felt that as long as Shen Zhu's method was done well, it would be flawless, and then the marriage could be withdrawn naturally, and others would definitely not say that it was their family's fault!

The two of them didn't dare to make a decision on their own, so they went to find Shen Youfu again. They had talked to Shen Youfu about this before, but he was still hesitant. Now they had to work harder for Shen Ziju's attitude towards Su Zhi. And the two of them thought about it. They told Shen Youfu about Shen Ziju's abnormality, hoping to make Shen Youfu even more dissatisfied with the fourth room.

Sure enough, when Shen Youfu heard what his wife and daughter said, he almost jumped up and went to find trouble with his fourth daughter-in-law. He did not think that Shen Ziju was wrong for being interested in his fourth sister-in-law, but that it must be the fourth daughter-in-law who was wrong. He thought that she must be the one who dressed up all day to seduce his precious son.

"This little bitch! She's already married, but she's still so tactless as to go near her brother-in-law. She's really so brave that she's been fed to a wolf! Isn't she afraid of being thrown into a pig cage?"

"Old man, please sit down! Speak softly, so no one can hear you!"

Shen Zhang and Shen Zhu stopped Shen Youfu and hurriedly asked him to speak in a low voice. They persuaded Shen Youfu and explained the current situation to him, asking him not to make it public. It would be best to nip Shen Ziju's idea in the bud. Then they expressed their thoughts.

Shen Youfu was originally hesitant to cancel the engagement of his two children, because the engagement was made out of gratitude, and if he did so now, he was naturally worried that he would be punished by God for breaking the engagement, and that it would implicate his son. Most importantly, he was afraid that the villagers would gossip about his two children breaking the engagement, and his reputation would be ruined.

Now Shen Ziju is like this, and Shen Zhu said that if her method is successful, no one will say that they are wrong. If they hate the marriage, the Song family and the Xiao family will have to pay them compensation and apologize. Although their family's reputation may be affected, it is nothing, at least it will not affect Shen Ziju's future. Once Shen Ziju passes the imperial examination and becomes an official, no one will mention this matter anymore.

After hearing this, Shen Youfu agreed.

At this time, there was a sound under the window, followed by a sigh and the sound of "Third Brother". The faces of the three people in the room all darkened, and they thought that someone was eavesdropping on the wall through the window.

"Sanlang, Silang, come in! If you don't, I'll break your legs!"

Shen Youfu yelled, the groaning sound just now was obviously Silang's voice, and the "Third Brother" must be Sanlang. He thought that only the people from the third room had the courage to eavesdrop on the conversation. It was really shameless that they dared to eavesdrop on the conversation of their elders, and such an important matter was heard.

Shen Zhang's usually amiable face also darkened at this time. She thought that the third room really needed discipline. She thought that they only used such means on others, and would never dare to do such things to their parents. She didn't expect that she really thought too highly of them. How could they not dare? They were too bold! There was nothing blocking the window of their main room. Others could see them eavesdropping there. Did they really think that others would not dare to report them? ! Or did they think that they would not dare to do anything? !

Shen Zhu had already rushed out, not even taking small steps.

"You two, come in!"

As soon as Shen Zhu went out, he saw Sanlang and Silang standing in the yard. They were probably frightened by Shen Youfu's roar and did not dare to run back into the house.

"Dad! Mom! Grandpa is angry! He wants to kill me! Dad, come out quickly! Mom, come out quickly!"

Silang was not a very courageous person. He was scared to death by his grandfather's roar just now. Now seeing his aunt also coming out with a stern face, he didn't want to go in and be beaten and scolded by Shen Youfu, so he started to call his parents spinelessly.

Sanlang was older now, and he knew that what grandpa and grandma had just said in the room was very important, and that his parents had to take care of it, so he also called out.

Shen Ziping and Sun Shi stood in the house and didn't want to go out. They just heard Shen Youfu's roar, but Shen Zhu came over and lifted the curtain, calling them to go out. The two had no choice but to go out. They both had bitter faces and glared at their two sons. They thought it was useless. The people in the big room were finally gone, and they asked Chunhua to guard the door. As long as someone came, they would inform the news. They actually let the people in the house find out!

"Hey, Zhu'er, these kids are just ignorant. They just saw their father-in-law bring back a very exquisitely woven box. They were curious and wondered what was inside, so they went to take a look. The kids are ignorant, so don't be angry. Say a few good words for them. Third sister-in-law thanks you here. You know best how Third sister-in-law treats you. ... Don't worry, as long as you help me, when the time comes, if you want me to help you with Song Dashan's marriage, I will do it for you."

Sun said the last sentence in a low voice, leaning close to Shen Zhu. She had long seen that Shen Zhu disliked Song Dashan.

Shen Zhu glanced at her and walked straight into the house. She thought that although her third brother and his wife loved to take advantage of others, people who loved to take advantage of others were also easy to manipulate. Her plan was good, but it involved too many people. If she didn't want to arouse suspicion, she would have to have cooperation from others. To do this, people with good intentions would definitely not be able to do it, so among the people in the family, only the people from the third room were suitable.

Shen Zhu entered the room and whispered a few words into Shen Zhang's ear, expressing her intention.

Shen Zhang nodded, and Shen Youfu also listened from the side. He thought that he didn't want to be involved in this matter, so he would let his third son and his daughter-in-law deal with this embarrassing matter.

As soon as the people from the third room came in, they were severely scolded by Shen Youfu, which made them all lower their heads. Then he asked Sanlang and Silang what they had heard.

Seeing that Shen Youfu asked him to speak, Sanlang told him what he heard. Actually, Shen Youfu and the others didn't speak loudly. After all, it was not a good thing, so Sanlang only heard them intermittently. But he also understood that grandpa and grandma were trying to find a way to cancel the marriage of his aunt and fifth uncle at once.

Shen Youfu was smoking there, thinking that his children and grandchildren had heard about this, so let's do it, this is God's will, and he can't stop.

"Pearl, talk to them."

Shen Zhu warned them first, telling them what would happen if they told others about this, and then she told them how it would benefit the Shen family if this was successful. Finally, she emphasized that they needed to help, and if it was successful, they would be the great contributors to the family, and she and her brother would remember their kindness and let them eat and dress well in the future.

When the people from the third room heard this, they all expressed their loyalty immediately. This incident tied them together, which meant that the third room would be more respected than the first room in the future because they had a common secret!

Shen Zhu explained his plan, glanced at the people in the third room, and said, "Let's do this. What do you think? Can it be realized?"

Shen Ziping said, "Yes, yes! Why not! Zhu'er is smart. With her intelligence, Song Dashan is not worthy of her at all. His family doesn't have any money to support a phoenix like you! Let's do it this way."

Sun also nodded quickly.

Saburo's eyes sparkled as he thought things were going to be fun this time, but Silang was still a little confused as he had no idea what was going to happen.

The family made a plan and spread the conspiracy net to the Song and Xiao families.
