The second old lady's words were so harsh that everyone in the front hall was stunned.
"That's enough!" Mrs. Dong shouted, "We don't need you to get involved in the affairs of our first house! You should take care of your second house first.
My daughter, no matter what she chooses in the future, we will respect her decision. If she wants to get married, we will send her blessings; if she doesn't want to get married, our family will support her for the rest of her life!
Anyway, this is our eldest wife's business, and it is not your second wife's turn to make decisions."
This was the first time that Old Madam Dong spoke in such a heartless tone, and Dong Mingqiang was so embarrassed that he could not hold back his face.
The second old lady was so angry that her face turned red, and she began to speak without thinking: "You are an ignorant person, He Li sounds good, but in fact, you are just an abandoned woman, and you are still picky. You really think you are still a pure and innocent girl!
I want to see what kind of shabby guy you will end up marrying!"
The second old lady was so heartbroken that she couldn't control herself as she couldn't get the 20,000 taels of silver as a thank-you fee.
He was extremely angry, and his words showed no trace of his former temper and manners, as he vented his dissatisfaction without any scruples.
Dong Mingqiang looked at his father's attitude and felt pained about the loss of 20,000 taels of silver, so he did not try to dissuade him.
The second old lady's harsh words, like a sharp knife, pierced Dong Nianmei's heart deeply.
Her eyes gradually turned red and tears welled up in them, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
Dong Mingshan couldn't bear it any longer. Regardless of the fact that the Second Madam was his elder, he stood up and angrily said, "It is not your turn to interfere in my sister's marriage.
Even if all the men in the world died, she would not marry your nephew.
You've been rejected once, why do you have the audacity to come again? You're so angry and humiliated when your marriage proposal failed. It's really eye-opening."
The second old lady was furious when she heard this. She pointed at Dong Mingshan's nose and scolded, "Who the hell are you? Do you have the right to speak here? Marriage is a matter of fate and matchmaker's words. Don't you understand?"
Madam Dong was so angry at the unreasonable behavior of the second madam that she felt dizzy. She suppressed her anger and said coldly: "For the sake of the eldest brother, can't her eldest brother take charge of Nianmei's marriage?
Who do you think you are? When will it be your turn to interfere in the affairs of our first wife's family? "
The second old lady was intimidated by the majesty of old lady Dong, but she still refused to give up.
She stood up and sneered, "Are we meddling in other people's affairs? I am sincere and would like to introduce her to a scholar, a future juren, or even a champion, who has never been married.
What happened to your eldest wife? You don't know the heart of the people.
My dear, I want to see what kind of family your eldest daughter will marry into in the end."
Dong Mingqiang also sneered and echoed: "Women, sooner or later, will get married.
Although my cousin is not from a wealthy family, he is at least a scholar. It is a blessing for your sister that he is willing to marry her.
Don't be ignorant, if you miss this opportunity, you will miss it forever."
Dong Mingshan was furious when he heard this.
He stared at Dong Mingqiang and roared, "Your cousin is a lazy, good-for-nothing fellow, is he worthy of marrying my sister? It's simply wishful thinking!"
The second old lady shouted sharply, "My nephew is a scholar and will soon become a juren. Where is your sister?
A remarried woman, if the Dong family didn't have some money, who would be interested in her? Humph, what a joke! "
