Chapter 56 Dog Bite Dog 2
"You are bullying me, you are bullying me..." The boy also started crying and rolling on the ground.
The man's eyes were heavy and his teeth were gnashed, and it was obvious that he would not give up until he achieved his goal.
Boss Song was exhausted, feeling that this day was even more devastating than the previous year's setbacks. First, his beloved concubine was already married, no longer a virgin, and he treated a slut like a treasure. If word got out, he didn't know how others would laugh at him. Even worse, the scandal came to light at the very moment of his promotion.
I don’t know if there will be any changes in his promotion.
Now he just hoped that this matter would be over as soon as possible. Not to mention two hundred taels, he would be willing to give even more.
Old Mrs. Song wanted to argue and bargain for a few more words, but her hand was grabbed by someone. She turned around and saw that it was her eldest son.
Boss Song's face turned grim, his lips trembling: "Mom, let's just leave it at that. Give them the money."
"But... two hundred taels, my son, just give it to them like that? This is not a small amount of money..." Old Mrs. Song felt extremely painful.
How much can you buy with this silver? Giving it to these two peasants, just because of Wanxia? How can Wanxia be worthy of her? Ten taels of silver is too much for a piece of trash like her.
"Give it to me, I have to." He lowered his voice and explained, "If this matter goes wrong, it will affect my promotion."
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Song stopped arguing and gave the silver promptly.
I just prayed in my heart that these people would leave quickly and not affect my son's promotion.
Seeing that the matter was settled, the county magistrate was anxious to go back and spend some time with his new concubine. But when he thought about how miserable Boss Song was, how he was deceived, and how his concubine was not innocent...
He was worried, seeing that Boss Song was getting more and more jealous. He planned to investigate his beautiful concubines and make sure they didn't end up like this one.
It would be so embarrassing if it were to come out now.
The father and son took the money and were about to leave with Wanxia.
Wanxia was reluctant, so the man stepped forward and slapped her, looking at her fiercely. Wanxia knew she was in the wrong, so she whimpered and didn't struggle, and was dragged away.
Song Ci stood there, watching the sunset stumbling further and further away. A strange smile curved up at the corner of his mouth.
The pain of the sunset has just begun.
She is no longer a good citizen. She secretly gave her indenture contract to Wanxia's husband. Now she can never escape no matter what.
In the previous life, most of the Third Wife's tragic end was due to Wanxia's help. She relied on the Third Wife's trust and made her deaf and blind, deceiving everyone.
Now, it is her turn to experience the days when no one can help her and no one will answer her calls.
She was afraid of living a hard life and afraid to go back, but Song Ci was determined to make it impossible for her to turn over a new leaf in her life.
Wanxiang snorted, "Serves you right. She's so cruel that she's willing to abandon her own newborn child."
Song Ci raised an eyebrow. "There are so many cruel people in this world. As long as they can achieve their own wishes, they will sacrifice anything and trample on anything."
Wanxiang tilted her head, feeling creepy at what Song Ci said.
"Are there really such cruel people in the world?"
Song Ci curled her lips and sneered. Isn’t the Song family just like this?
...........
In the main hall, everyone in the Song family sat in their chairs in silence.
Old Lady Song looked at Song Lao San's gloomy face and softened her tone a little, "Lao San, your sister-in-law did something wrong. Mother has already taught her a lesson. Don't take it to heart."
Song Laosan chewed over Wanxia's words over and over again, feeling quite shocked.
Wanxia said that her sister-in-law sent her to monitor the third room.
We are a family, so we shouldn't be so cautious about thieves.
How can one not feel chilled?
"What is sister-in-law worried about? She must keep an eye on the third room." Song Lao San spoke in a muffled voice.
Boss Song: "Third brother, don't listen to Wanxia. You can't take her words seriously."
Song Lao Er: "Yes, Third Brother. Don't you believe Mother, don't believe our two brothers, and only believe the words of that bitch Wanxia? We are a family. How could we do such a thing?"
Song Laosan glanced at them and suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.
In the past, he would not have thought too much about it after his mother and brothers said so. But recently, things happened more and more frequently in this family, and they became more and more strange, so he could not help but think about it.
Could it be that what my sister-in-law did has nothing to do with my mother and brothers?
Li Yao lowered his head and said nothing. He seemed mute. Song Rouxi looked worried.
She cursed inwardly, "This useless Third Uncle, why is he still arguing at this moment? Didn't he see that her mother was beaten? Even if her mother did something wrong, she was slapped by her grandmother, so the matter should be over."
As expected, he is petty and ungrateful, just like Song Ci, both are ungrateful.
Qiao Xianglan noticed that her husband looked unwell and was worried, but she said nothing.
In the house at night.
Song Lao San was lying on the bed and suddenly said, "Wife, do you feel that mother and brothers..."
Qiao Xianglan was about to fall asleep, half asleep and half awake, "What?"
Seeing that she was about to close her eyes and was still trying to respond to him in a daze, Song Lao San chuckled: "Nothing, you are tired too. Go to sleep."
He raised his hand and tucked the quilt in for her.
"Well, you should rest early too."
Big room.
"You disappoint me so much." Boss Song sat on the chair with a gloomy expression.
Li Yao burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably, "Master, I didn't mean it."
"Li Yao, even now, I feel like you're such a stranger. You lied to me about taking care of mother, and then arranged for Wanxia to spy on my third brother. You're a well-educated and cultured young lady from a scholarly family. How could you do such a thing?"
"I...I...I just had the wrong idea for a moment." Li Yao was now speechless.
Her family had long since fallen on hard times, and when she was in the village, the household was busy, and as a girl, she had to do a lot of housework. In winter, her fingers would be frozen and cracked.
Until he met Boss Song, he felt that he was different from other girls in the village.
He thought that she was a lady from a scholarly family and looked up to her.
From then on, whenever she met Boss Song, she would put on a pretentious attitude and tell him how favored she was at home, how she had never had to do housework, and how she could read and write.
As expected, the aloof and proud Mr. Song, who was studying in a private school, was fascinated by her.
Then he went to ask for marriage.
She couldn't lose everything she had now. Li Yao knelt and begged, "We are husband and wife. Don't you know who I am? I don't want to do this either. It's just that mother is wary of my third brother's family. I just want to see if my third brother is really willing to help you."
She couldn't admit that she hated Qiao Xianglan. She hated that she was just the daughter of a merchant family, but had a husband like Song Lao San who loved her wholeheartedly and protected her.
She had also been troubled by her mother-in-law before, but Boss Song only advised her to be filial to her mother-in-law and never said a word to help her.
Why should Qiao Xianglan get what she couldn't get? She was clearly a slut who couldn't stand up to the public.
But Boss Song didn't look at her.
