Do you know: I am Yuan Wenshao

Chapter 263 Method

Moriya

When Sheng Hong and Sheng Changbai returned home from work, they learned about Ru Lan.

When Sheng Hong found out, he almost fainted from anger and scolded Mrs. Wang.

Mo Lan and Liang Liulang had an affair before, and Madam Wang often made sarcastic remarks to Miss Lin.

Although Lin Xiaoniang is dead, Sheng Hong still has feelings for her, and he was very angry when Mrs. Wang said that.

But Mrs. Wang is reasonable. Seriously speaking, Sheng Hong himself is also responsible for Mo Lan's incident.

According to the rules, a concubine and a concubine can only address their biological mother as their biological mother, but they must address their aunt as mother, and their instruction is also given by their aunt.

But it happened that Sheng Hong himself was a concubine. He had experienced the bitterness of being separated from his biological mother since he was a child, and his aunt had no care for him.

Later, Mrs. Sheng's legitimate son died in infancy and Mr. Sheng passed away, so Mrs. Sheng recorded him in her name.

But he was already sensible at that time and could not get close to Mrs. Sheng.

It was precisely because of his childhood experience and his love for Lin Xiaoniang that he let his children be disciplined by his biological mother.

As a result, Mo Lan was taught by Lin Xiaoniang to do such things that ruined the family tradition. Sheng Hong was in a bad situation and could not get angry with Mrs. Wang.

It's good now, Ru Lan also did this kind of thing.

Although there is no adultery, there is no difference in the nature of the affair.

After all, once word spreads, no one will believe you.

"I asked you to manage the house, and this is how you manage it? The good daughter you taught me had an affair with someone under your nose, and now she is even more shameless about having someone else's child and committing suicide. You guys? No matter what she does, let her die!" Sheng Hong's face was ashen and he was spitting.

Mrs. Wang knew she was in the wrong, so she lowered her head and said nothing.

"Dad, let's discuss how to resolve this matter now." Sheng Changbai advised.

"Whoo~"

Sheng Hong was a little tired from scolding, so he took a breath after hearing this, took a few sips of tea, and said: "Don't she want to get married? Then let her get married!"

Sheng Hong was optimistic about Wen Yanjing. Wen Yanjing passed the imperial examination. He praised him when everyone met him and regarded him as his favorite disciple.

But he was still very annoyed about Wen Yanjing hooking up with Ru Lan.

But after much thought, marrying Ru Lan is the best solution.

For Sheng Hong, being angry is one thing, but the Sheng family's face is above all else.

More importantly, Mrs. Wang's words about poor Jinshi deeply stimulated him.

The living environment he grew up in made him develop a cautious and cautious temperament, and he was also very sensitive psychologically.

To put it simply, I feel a little inferior.

Seriously speaking, given his status at the time, he was somewhat unworthy of Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang's temperament can simply be said to be straightforward, but to be honest, she is actually brainless.

Mrs. Wang speaks and acts without thinking, which makes Sheng Hong dislike her. However, her natal family has a high family status, and Sheng Hong has to rely on the Wang family.

For this reason, Sheng Hong not only did not dare to have an attack, but also had to be kind to her.

Later, Mrs. Wang passed away and the Wang family was no longer what it used to be. Naturally, Sheng Hong would not look down upon Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang blamed all of this on Lin Xiaoniang. She always felt that it was Lin Xiaoniang's appearance that made Sheng Hong change her mind.

Who knows, Lin Xiaoniang is just the catalyst.

Mrs. Wang called Wen Yanjing a poor scholar, which made Sheng Hong feel very harsh.

"no!"

Mrs. Wang said anxiously: "Wen Yan can't respect a poor Jinshi, how can he be worthy of my Ru'er?"

She didn't have to refute Sheng Hong when he scolded her, but she was unwilling to let Ru Lan suffer the consequences of marrying Wen Yanjing.

"That's not a good daughter for you to teach. If you don't want to be good, then let her die."

Sheng Hong said in shame and annoyance: "Come here, take that evildoer to the door of the ancestral hall and beat him to death! What is the thing doing in the world that has brought shame to our ancestors?"

"Please give me mercy!"

Mrs. Wang screamed in shock, hugged Sheng Hong's legs tightly, and cried: "The official is so unreasonable. Ru Lan is at fault in this matter, but Ru Lan is not having an affair with someone outside." . If the officials hadn’t brought that Wen Yanjing back, how could things have happened now?”

"The officials praised Wen Yan for all the good things he did, but who would have thought that he looked honest and honest, but harbored evil intentions. Ru Lan was not very experienced in the world, so she was deceived by him."

"open!"

Sheng Hong became even more angry when Mrs. Wang said this, and shook his legs to get Mrs. Wang away.

"mother!"

At this moment, Hualan and Haishi walked in.

When Hualan saw her mother sitting on the ground crying miserably, she exclaimed and quickly ran forward to help Mrs. Wang up.

Mrs. Wang was crying and unwilling to get up. She cried bitterly: "If the officials want to beat Ru Lan to death, just beat me to death too."

Hualan raised her head, looked at her father in disbelief, and asked, "Dad, do you really want to beat the fifth sister to death?"

"What do you think I think? Ru Lan did such a shameless thing. I said she would marry her to Wen Yanjing, but your mother still refused to agree," Sheng Hong said.

"Mom, you get up first."

Hualan pulled Mrs. Wang up, and Haishi quickly went to help. The two of them helped Mrs. Wang sit down.

"Mom and Dad, now that things have happened, just making noise will not solve it." Hua Lan said.

"But if we don't do this, once word spreads in the future, our Sheng family will lose face." Sheng Hong said.

"Dad is afraid that Wen Yanjing will not agree with our Sheng family, so he will use this as a threat, right?"

Hua Lan said: "Dad, don't worry. My daughter has asked the officials to warn him, and he doesn't dare to say anything nonsense. Father only needs to take care of the people in the family."

"Yes, as Erlang, he really doesn't dare to say nonsense. But if Ru Lan gets married in the future and this matter spreads again, what should we do?" Sheng Hong said.

What Hualan said was not unexpected to him. Even if no one came forward, let alone Yuan Wenshao, he still believed that Wen Yanjing would not speak nonsense.

It's not that he believes in Wen Yanjing's character, but that his identity is useful to Wen Yanjing. As long as Wen Yanjing is not stupid, he won't dare to break up now.

But what about the future?

If this matter is exposed after Ru Lan gets married, not only will the reputation of the Sheng family be ruined, but the in-laws will also be offended.

Hualan also fell silent after hearing this. In fact, she also agreed with Sheng Hong's words.

But knowing that Wen Yanjing deliberately deceived Ru Lan, he still wanted to marry Ru Lan, which was indeed a bit unwilling.

"You have read so many books, where have they gone?"

At this moment, Mrs. Sheng walked in with Minglan's support.

"Mother!"

"grandmother!"

Sheng Hong and others saluted quickly.

"Humph!"

Mrs. Sheng snorted coldly, dodged Sheng Hong's hand, and sat down at the main seat with Minglan's help.

"Whenever big things happen, you need to calm down. Where have you read all the books you have read for so many years? I heard shouting from afar. Do you want everyone in Bianjing to know?" Mrs. Sheng said coldly. vocal channel.

"What mother teaches is that her son is unfilial and fails to teach his children well, which makes mother worry." Sheng Hong bowed. Mrs. Sheng didn't look at him. She turned to look at Sheng Changbai and asked, "Changbai, tell me, what should we do about this matter?"

Sheng Changbai saluted and said, "Back to grandma, my grandson thinks this matter should not be compromised!"

"go on."

"Wen Yanjing is a scholar and should know the principle of no marriage without a matchmaker. Even if the fifth sister takes the initiative, he should keep a distance. It can be seen that he has some bad intentions in this matter. If he compromises and gets benefits, he may not be able to do so in the future. I won’t push myself too far," Sheng Changbai said.

Mrs. Sheng nodded slightly and said, "What about your father's worries?"

"He doesn't dare!"

Sheng Changbai said firmly: "Our Sheng family cares about face, and so does he. Now that he has won the election, even if our Sheng family doesn't agree, he still has a future. But if this matter is spread, his future will be ruined."

After hearing this, Mrs. Sheng nodded with satisfaction, looked at Sheng Hong and said coldly: "I am several decades old, but I still don't see the problem as thoroughly as Chang Bai."

"That's what my mother taught me."

Could Sheng Hong not think of this?

Of course he could think of it, but he cared too much about the reputation of the Sheng family, or rather his face.

This made him afraid to gamble.

"Grandma, what about the fifth sister? With her temperament, I'm afraid she won't listen to anything she says." Hua Lan asked worriedly.

Rulan would fight to the death for Wen Yanjing. Even if she told her that Wen Yanjing had a purpose in contacting her, Rulan would not believe it.

On the contrary, you will feel that they disagree and said it deliberately.

"No, if I go and persuade her, she will definitely change her mind." Mrs. Wang said quickly.

"Don't go, let girl Ming go. They are similar in age and have been on good terms since they were young. If girl Ming talks about it, Rulan will speak out what's in her heart." Mrs. Sheng thought for a while and said.

"Minglan, please excuse me." Mrs. Wang looked at Minglan gratefully.

"Madam, you're welcome."

Minglan bowed and said, "Grandma, I'll go then."

"Go ahead. Don't mention Wen Yanjing. Let's talk to her first and see what she thinks." Old Mrs. Sheng said.

Minglan nodded, bowed to Sheng Hong and Madam Wang, and then left.

"Okay, everyone, sit down."

Old Mrs. Sheng waved her hand and said: "As the saying goes, the person who untied the bell must tie the bell. I think the best way is to let Ru Lan give up on Wen Yan. Only in this way can the problem be solved fundamentally."

"I'm afraid Wen Yanjing won't agree," Hua Lan said.

Wen Yanjing must have known that this incident had offended the Sheng family.

If he could marry Ru Lan, even if the Sheng family had a grudge, they would not do anything to him and would instead help him.

Even if the Sheng family doesn't help him, having the identity of the Sheng family's son-in-law is still good for him.

But if he fails to marry Ru Lan, the Sheng family will definitely take revenge on him.

Wen Yanjing would not agree as long as he was not stupid.

After hearing this, Mrs. Sheng frowned and thought for a while and said, "Just give him some benefits, Honger, you..."

"Old madam, my lord! My aunt is here."

At this moment, a maid saluted at the door.

After a while, Yuan Wenshao walked in.

"I have met my grandmother, father-in-law and mother-in-law." Yuan Wenshao saluted.

"Erlang told you to watch a joke, sit down." Mrs. Sheng said.

"Grandma was joking, we are all one family." Yuan Wenshao said and sat down next to Hua Lan.

"Erlang came just in time. Please help me with something."

Mrs. Sheng said again what she had just finished saying.

Her plan is very simple. Wen Yanjing wants to marry Ru Lan for profit. Just give him some benefits and let him find a way to make Ru Lan give up.

After hearing this, Yuan Wenshao shook his head and said, "He may not agree to this."

Mrs. Sheng's method is very similar to some scenes in later TV shows.

A poor boy fell in love with a rich girl, but his parents simply threw money at him to make the poor boy leave his daughter.

Yuan Wenshao felt that this method was too smart. If he were that poor boy, he would not have agreed.

Since her parents have done this, it is obvious that her daughter cannot be persuaded, otherwise she would not do it.

With the little money I was given, there was no way I could marry a rich girl directly.

Although you may not be able to get married in the end, you can give it a try.

On the contrary, asking for money is tantamount to confirming that you are in contact with other people's daughters for money. Who knows whether they will retaliate afterwards.

And once you take the money, the parents will definitely tell the truth in order to make their daughter give up.

Women have a strong desire for revenge. If a rich girl takes revenge, it will definitely not be something a poor boy can bear.

So no matter how you look at it, this money is not that easy to get.

Wen Yanjing is not stupid. He naturally understands that the benefits of the Sheng family are not that easy to obtain, and he will most likely not agree.

"Erlang, I think I can give it a try, just in case he is short-sighted and really agrees." Sheng Hong said.

"My father-in-law is not stupid for being short-sighted, but I have an idea." Yuan Wenshao said.

"Official, please stop showing off at this time." Hua Lan pulled Yuan Wenshao and asked her to speak quickly.

"If Wen Yanjing really contacted the fifth sister on purpose, it must be for the sake of his future. As long as someone with a higher status than the Sheng family is willing to marry their daughter to him, he will naturally not continue to keep an eye on the fifth sister."

"On the contrary, it shows that he is sincere to the fifth sister, so it would be a good idea to marry the fifth sister to him." Yuan Wenshao said.

"No!" Mrs. Wang objected after hearing this: "No matter what, Ru'er cannot marry him."

"Shut up!" Sheng Hong scolded, looked at Yuan Wenshao and said, "Erlang, your method is easy, but where can you find such a family? Someone with a higher family status than the Sheng family is willing to marry his daughter to him, and she may not I will believe it.”

Sheng Hong is now at the fifth level, which is nothing in Bianjing.

If we talk about family status in this way, the Sheng family is not considered high.

But I can’t bear the thought that other people’s daughters marry well, and their daughters-in-law marry well.

Invisibly, the Sheng family's family status was raised.

Bianjing's family background is much higher than that of the Sheng family, but such a family is quite famous, and you can find out if you ask around.

It is definitely impossible to ask others to help you act, you can only pretend.

Not to mention the risks, as long as Wen Yanjing is not a fool, it is impossible to believe it.

After all, the Sheng family is not willing to marry their legitimate daughter to him, how could someone with a higher family status than the Sheng family be willing.

"I have also thought about my father-in-law's worries, but Wen Yanjing is not from Bianjing. Although he has been in Bianjing for a while and has some understanding of the powerful people in Bianjing, it is only one-sided. As long as he does well, he may not find out. Of course, the premise is to tell him resolutely that there is no way that the Sheng family will marry their fifth sister to him. He has been planning for so long and failed like this, and there must be a gap in his heart. At this time, if a family not inferior to the Sheng family is willing As long as he thinks it's okay to marry your daughter to him, he won't refuse," Yuan Wenshao said.
