"If it really didn't matter, would you defend her like this? It's not because of your previous engagement. You also have selfish motives. Why should you criticize us?" Several daughters retorted through gritted teeth.
Chu Yuanqi sneered: "So, you also admit that you have selfish motives? Aren't you just jealous of Shen Wan? It's simply despicable to pour dirty water on others without their ability!"
Several daughters became angry in shame: "Chu Yuanqi, stop talking nonsense! What status do we have, would we be jealous of someone like Shen Wan?!"
"I think you clearly have lingering feelings for Shen Wan! You've already broken off the engagement and you still defend her like this. Why don't you defend others? Cui Minjun likes you so much, but you still haven't said a good word to her?"
"That's right......"
"I just don't understand. In what way is Cui Minjun inferior to Shen Wan? You would rather defend a widow than look down on Cui Minjun. She is the daughter of the Duke's palace after all. Chu Yuanqi, what do you think of her?"
Chu Yuanqi said angrily: "Does my opinion have anything to do with you? I said that Shen Wan and I are just friends, but you all belittle my friends in front of me. I can't say a few words?"
Several of the daughters sneered and said: "That's nice! One of you is unmarried and the other is unmarried, and you have been engaged before. Most people have no time to avoid suspicion, so you have made friends?"
The implication of these words seems to be that the two people have some kind of shady relationship.
Chu Yuanqi looked coldly at the daughter who spoke, and said word by word: "I, Chu Yuanqixing, stand upright, unlike you, my mind is dirty, and everything I see is dirty!"
Several daughters: "..."
Seeing that the two sides were getting more and more noisy.
Several gentlemen on the side tried to smooth things over: "Okay, please stop saying a few words."
"Chu Yuanqi, stop talking."
"Look at what kind of occasion this is. It won't be good for anyone if we make a fuss. Please stop making noise."
"It's not worth it to argue like this over Shen Wan."
Chu Yuanqi said coldly: "There is nothing unworthy. They can slander people on such occasions, even losing their reputation and face. What do I, a grown man, have to fear?"
Young Master: "..."
"I want to see who dares to have a daughter-in-law who gossips behind his back and is full of dirty thoughts." Chu Yuanqi turned to look at the young men he was friends with and sneered, "Your family Do you dare to ask for it?"
Several young men: "..." Several people were silent.
"Chu Yuanqi!!" The rich people who were talking the most turned red in the face and trembled with anger, "Are you crazy? If you dare to ruin our reputation like this, my family will not let you go!"
No matter what, talking about others behind their back is not a glorious thing.
To put it mildly, she looks like a woman with a long tongue.
Broadly speaking, it is a matter of cultivating character.
Especially for women who have not yet left the court, being questioned about their poor upbringing and bad conduct will directly affect their reputation and even affect their future marriages.
As a man, Chu Yuanqi was also the confirmed heir to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, so he didn't have to worry about his reputation at all.
He sneered and said: "Am I ruining your reputation? Haha, you can really speak your mind! Then let your family members come directly to Zhenbei Hou Mansion to find me. I will just talk to your parents and let them know that you all Whatever you said or did outside, it’s up to me to ruin your reputation, or whether you don’t deserve a good reputation!”
Several daughters were so angry that their faces were blue and they were speechless for a moment.
Chu Yuanqi's tone was disgusted: "I'll leave my words here. If you are not convinced, just ask your family members to come to me. I will accompany you at any time! But I warn you, if I hear you talking nonsense behind your back again, I will give it to Shen Don't blame me for being rude if you throw dirty water late at night!"
"You...what do you want to do?" The daughters felt a little panicked when they heard that his tone was not a joke.
"Whatever you did to Shen Wan, I will do to you exactly the same!" Chu Yuanqi said expressionlessly, "Don't you like to talk about others behind their backs and say scandalous things about others that are not true? This chapter has been completed!
