After the whole family was swept away, I lay down flat

Chapter 314 Entanglement

The scandal between Tang Hui and Jin Shan soon spread, and the Jin family played the most important role in it.

It is said that the Tang family repeatedly asked the Jin family to shut up, but Uncle Jin and his wife agreed, but the rest of the Jin family did not; the Jin family agreed, but the relatives and servants of the Jin family did not agree... Anyway, there are always people in the market. Just spread the news among the people.

What the Jin family was planning, not to mention the Tang family, even the neighbors saw it and felt very contemptuous. But who told the eldest lady of the Tang family to give the handle to the Jin family? No matter how angry the Tang family was, the Jin family would not let go and insisted on promoting this marriage. Even if Tang Hui came to his senses afterwards, realized that he had done something stupid, regretted it, and scolded the Jin family, the Jin family would not be moved.

Several generals of the Tang family were not serving in the guards belonging to the Jin family, so the Jin family was very calm. Although it is not impossible for the Tang family to influence the future of the Jin family brothers, the scandal between Miss Tang and the Jin family's son is now widely known throughout the city. Any action taken by the Tang family will be regarded as a revenge of public and private revenge. This is somewhat taboo.

At present, the Tang family is planning to transfer to the capital, so naturally they can't let others talk about it. If they really don't want to marry their daughter into the Jin family, they have to pay some additional price in exchange for the Jin family to let go.

Starting from the middle of the first month, the hottest topic in Chang'an City became the dispute between the Tang and Jin families. Everyone who heard the news was discussing it secretly, and other topics were ignored. The news that several military attaches had received transfer orders did not attract anyone's attention. As for the statement that the general would officially take over the Chang'an Vanguard on Thursday, no one mentioned it again.

The boudoir correspondence between the Zhenguo government and the Hai family was very frequent. Haitang informed Zhou Wenjun, who was in the palace, of the news she had learned from the market, while Zhou Wenjun, Zhou Yijun and Peng Yuqi wrote to Haitang the news they had heard from their own homes and relatives. Yes or no, the discussion was lively.

Haitang then knew about it. After her wife missed Zhou Wenjun's message on Tuesday, she was very upset and rushed back to her parents' house that day to question Tang Hui about what was going on. As an aunt, she worked hard to plan a good marriage for her niece. First, her niece made trouble for Jin Shan in front of Zhou Wenjun and held her back. Now, she is having a private meeting with her husband directly in front of Mrs. Chengen Hou Shizi. Is it true? If you don’t want to marry into the Zhou family, why don’t you choose Jin Shan, a romantic and playboy? !

When Madam arrived at her parents' house on Tuesday, she found that Tang Hui was crying too. She really didn't make an appointment with Jin Shan to express her feelings.

She learned from Peng Yuqi that in the poem Jin Shan had written specifically for her earlier, the word "green jade" at the end did not refer to the green jade pavilion where she and Jin Shan had stayed while admiring the snow and chatting about poetry. Refers to the green jade girl in Kuifang Pavilion. This poem was also written by Jin Shan for Lu Yu, and it happened to use the word "luyu" from Lu Yuting, so it was used as a poem for two purposes to offend her, a fool. Tang Hui was greatly shocked and couldn't believe this fact. No matter what, he had to ask Jin Shan face to face to feel at ease, so he made an appointment with Jin Shan to come out to meet.

She specially took the girl with her and made an appointment in a crowded teahouse in broad daylight. She thought she was aboveboard and not afraid of anyone talking.

But judging from what happened that day, it is likely that as soon as Jin Shan received the invitation post, he immediately had delusional thoughts and took the opportunity to set a trap. While going to the teahouse to make an appointment to stabilize her, he asked his mother, Mrs. Jin, to notify The Tang family went to "catch the adulterer" and asked other family members to spread the word, in order to make the matter bigger and make the public believe that Tang Hui and Jin Shan had an affair, so as to force the Tang family to marry Tang Hui to Jin Shan. The Tang and Jin families are getting married. In the future, the Jin family will have something to rely on and can rely on the power of the Tang family to revive their family business!

As for what would happen to Tang Hui as a result, and what she would do with her life if the marriage failed, neither Jin Shan nor the Jin family had obviously considered it. The Jin family is just greedy. Jin Shan, who once thought to be a kind and kind man, actually has the same face. Tang Hui felt that the sky was falling. She thought that she, who was coaxed by Jin Shan's sweet words in the teahouse, was simply the best in the world. Big fool!

As Jin Shan's direct cousin, how could Peng Yuqi resolutely refuse the marriage and turn against the Jin family if she didn't know his true nature? She made it so clear that Tang Hui thought she was lying to her. After thinking about it afterwards, she immediately regretted it.

Tang Hui ignored her stepmother's sarcasm and her sisters' scoldings. She was in a daze. At night, people around her were unprepared and almost threw her into a trap. The Tang family didn't bother scolding her now. After all, she was a daughter who had been raised pampered since childhood and had high hopes for her. Although she shouldn't have her own petty thoughts, she didn't intend to go against her parents' orders. She was just plotted by the Jin family.

The Jin family were originally in-laws of the Tang family, but their relationship was distant. However, the Tang family usually spoke well of their family and treated each other affectionately. They treated them as one of their own and actively supported them. But now they only Feel sick. They wanted to help Jin Shan marry Peng Yuqi, the daughter of a high-ranking official. Who would have thought that Jin Shan was so ambitious that he was targeting the eldest daughter of their Tang family? !

Someone in the Tang family proposed to reject the Jin family's proposal to propose marriage based on the rumors that Jin Shan was attracted to Peng Yuqi. Unexpectedly, the Jin family acted very swiftly. In the evening when the news of the private meeting in the tea house spread, Mrs. Jin Er took the place of Mrs. Jin and ran to the Zhenguo Duke’s Mansion to meet with Peng Yuqi and told her that the Jin family would not mention the two men again. The family's marriage was about to happen, so let her pretend that it didn't happen and everything that happened in the past was just a misunderstanding.

Mrs. Jin Er said that Jin Shan's real crush was on the eldest daughter of the Tang family, but the latter was forced to marry by her family and refused to agree to the marriage. In a fit of anger, he deliberately pretended to be his beloved cousin to irritate his sweetheart. Now that he has recognized his feelings clearly, he will never do such misunderstandings again. He was also very sorry for damaging his cousin's reputation, and he would solemnly apologize in the future, and so on.

The Jin family also sent all the luggage that Peng Yuqi had left behind at the Jin family's house, along with a generous gift that Uncle Jin had specially prepared to express his gratitude to his niece for her service to the mother. It was clear that he wanted to draw a clear line with her. , so as not to be misunderstood by the Tang family.

Peng Yuqi is angry and funny. Although this was her plan, before she could send the news back to the Jin family that Tang Hui was attracted to Jin Shan, Tang Hui revealed the secret first. I really didn't know what to tell her. However, the Jin family voluntarily drew a clear line with her in order to marry the daughter of the Tang family, and she had no reason not to agree. She accepted the things and made a promise. She also wrote a letter of greetings to her grandmother, Mrs. Jin, and asked her second aunt to take it back. Then she and her best friend would eat melon in peace.

Everyone ate melon until before the Lantern Festival, and the storm came to an end for the time being.

The Tang family finally relented and were willing to officially consider the marriage between their eldest daughter Tang Hui and Jin Shan. However, they asked Jin Shan to make some achievements. If he did not serve in the army, he should at least obtain a meritorious service in order to be worthy of it. The daughter of the Tang family.

Jin Shan promised in front of the two elders that he would try his best to pass this year's college examination and gain the title of scholar. The two families agreed that after Jin Shan became a scholar, he could formally enter into a marriage contract with Tang Hui, but the marriage would not be consummated until he passed the imperial examination.

It is said that Jin Shan is not satisfied with the latter condition, but the Tang family is willing to marry, so how can the Jin family be picky? They had always had great confidence in their son. They believed that it was only a matter of time before he won the election, and it would not affect his wedding date at all, so they readily agreed.

After the two families came to an agreement, Jin Shan was immediately detained at home by his family to prepare for the exam. He was not allowed to go to any brothels or literati gatherings. It was necessary to ensure that he could be a scholar this year and win the exam next year.

No one outside knew what Jin Shan was thinking, but Miss Tang Hui immediately fell ill after learning the news.
