"No need to go to so much trouble." Chu Ling said coldly: "No matter who Weng Xiaohuan chooses, I will not accept her. Either you marry her or break off the engagement with the Caobang. With these two possibilities, there will be no third choice.
kind."
"Why?" Chu Run asked reluctantly: "Half of the Cao Gang, are you not moved at all by my eldest cousin? Or..." He glanced at Shi Chunfen and said with a smile: "Because I'm afraid of my eldest cousin's sister-in-law.
Are you jealous, so you are determined not to take a concubine?"
These words undoubtedly turned the Spring Equinox into a target of public criticism.
Yes, it’s just a concubine. Is it that difficult?
If you refuse to agree even to the death, it’s just because you have a fierce wife at home.
But looking at the virtue of the Spring Equinox, it doesn't seem like it can influence Chu Ling. What is it for?
Others didn't know, but the old lady and the head of Huating County knew very well that with Chu Ling's temperament, it was really possible that Chu Ling refused to take a concubine because of the spring equinox. This made the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law instantly unanimous and directly pointed the finger at each other.
It's the vernal equinox.
"Is that so? Equinox?" the old lady said calmly, her tone not harsh, but full of questioning.
When Chunfen heard this, she hurriedly raised her head and waved her hand, "No, I have no right to influence the uncle's decision."
The topic returned to Chu Ling, and his face was so dark at the moment that ink could drip from his face. Although he knew that in front of so many people, Shi Chunfen could only answer like this, but his heart still ached severely.
After a while, if he had not refused so resolutely, but had accepted Caobang's temptation as a matter of course like everyone else, would Shi Chunfen also have resignedly agreed to let him take in Weng Xiaohuan like he did now?
The answer was obvious, so Chu Ling couldn't laugh at all.
"Stop changing the subject." Chu Ling said impatiently: "Marry is just one word, and no marriage is just two words. Isn't it difficult to answer whether you will marry Weng Xiaohuan or not?"
Everyone was intimidated by his momentum, and everyone fell silent, curiously waiting for Chu Run's answer.
Chu Run looked at Chu Ling quietly, with unspeakable envy in his heart. This was the confidence coming from his eldest son. As long as his voice was a little louder, no matter whether it was justified or not, everyone would stand by his side without hesitation and wait for him.
Declaring the future of the concubine in the mansion.
Unfortunately, he is the bastard who was sentenced, and he can only obey his orders and make choices for himself.
"I have to meet Weng Xiaohuan before I can decide." Chu Run said directly.
He is not a person who cares about innocence that much, and the dowry provided by half the Cao Gang is indeed full of temptation for him.
But again, this matter is not his alone. He has to see Weng Xiaohuan's current state with his own eyes before he can judge whether he should take advantage of it.
If he was a bit more bad, he could just agree and then wait until Weng Xiaohuan gets married before neglecting her, but his temperament cannot allow him to do such a thing, so he can only make a decision after careful consideration.
Chu Ling didn't expect his answer to be this. He couldn't help but narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Okay, I will take you to see her tomorrow."
Seeing that the matter was settled like this, the old lady sighed tiredly, "It's such a sin for such a young girl to have to encounter something like this."
Shi Chunfen knew that she was very tired, so he took the initiative and said: "Grandma, let me help you go back to rest."
"Yes." The old lady glanced at her and slowly stretched out her right hand.
Shi Chunfen stepped forward to help her up and quickly left the scene with her.
As soon as the old lady left, the rest of the Chu family naturally dispersed. Chu Shun followed Chu Run and asked in an iron-clad tone: "Is there anything else to consider about this matter? You don't just want to be a member of the Cao Gang."
Son-in-law? Half of the Cao Gang, you just give up like that?"
"I didn't say I would give up." Chu Run looked at Xue Jinxiu and her son, who had their ears pricked up, and said calmly: "I just have to ask Xiaohuan's opinion to see if she is willing to marry me again after suffering such a disaster.
"
"Why is there such a refusal?" Chu Shun looked puzzled, "She has been ruined by others, how can she still expect others to want her?"
"It is precisely because she was ruined that she may have a shadow in her heart and may not be willing to marry me again," Chu Run said bluntly.
In fact, he is not a very upright person, but after something like this happened to Weng Xiaohuan, wouldn't it be too pitiful to be forced to marry someone who was only willing to marry her for a dowry?
He must ask her opinion and see if she is willing to enter this marriage that is destined to be tragic before he can decide whether he should be this evil person.
Hearing his explanation, Chu Shun curled his lips and said, "You just worry too much and are too kind. According to me, just marry her back like this, and Caobang will handle other matters. In the future, if she follows
If you can't live any longer, you can still find excuses to divorce your wife. By then, half of the Cao Gang will be in our hands, and there is nothing we can do even if the Weng family refuses."
"You put it lightly." Xue Jinxiu couldn't help but interjected: "What if Weng Xiaohuan was too hot-tempered and had any problems with her marriage and committed suicide? I think we need to think more clearly about this matter, otherwise it will be the same.
Not only can Caobang not be able to be in-laws, but they have also become enemies. At that time, the gains outweigh the losses."
Chu Shun didn't expect this and was speechless for a moment.
Yes, Weng Xiaohuan is a fiery person, and anything could happen to her if she gets married, so it's better to be cautious.
Seeing them discussing a girl's future, it was like discussing whether to buy a cabbage or not. Behind them, Huating County Master and the others shook their heads helplessly.
"I already know the reason why Chu Run refuses to marry Weng Xiaohuan, but what about you?" She looked at Chu Ling beside her and said lightly: "Is it really because of the Spring Equinox?"
Chu Ling stood beside her and quickly shook his head, "Even Arun knows that Weng Xiaohuan's current situation is not suitable for forcing herself. Does my mother think that I should become a villain just for the sake of that generous dowry?"
"Ha!" Huating County Lord snorted and said displeasedly: "You can deceive others but you can't deceive me. Weng Xiaohuan likes you very much. Chu Run is worried that she will feel reluctant to marry him. You have nothing to worry about.
, especially now that you are still the benefactor who saved her life, as long as you hook your finger, I think she will immediately fall into your arms."
"How can it be so exaggerated?" Chu Ling said amusedly: "Mother overestimates the charm of her child."
"I overestimated you, or you were possessed by the demon of the Equinox. You can easily give up such a big temptation. You know it yourself." The head of Huating County said coldly: "The man has his ambitions in all directions. In the future, you will
Of course, the more money, power, and honor these things have to offer, the better. It doesn’t matter if you give up once. If you give up your future for her over and over again, don’t blame me as a mother.
