Chapter 12 A New Proposal
Mu Qingwan was afraid that the Kang family would really agree, so she looked around and saw Mu Changguang beside him, hurriedly walked to him, and said in a low voice: "Father, what do you think of us when the Yu family behaves like this?! Father, you are not from the yamen Officials, why don’t you sue the officials? Let the magistrate decide who is right and who is wrong, why should our Mu family be led by the nose by the Yu family?”

Mu Changguang wanted to have an attack a long time ago, but just like Kang, the two knives on Shi's neck were hindered, so he endured until now. At this time, he was reminded by Mu Qingwan, and suddenly realized that he could do nothing but get angry here. , there was another choice, so he strode forward and said to Shi Shi: "Although you deceived both sides, it not only delayed our daughter, but also caused our family to lose face, and deserved to be hacked to death, but people like you People, we really don't want to make friends anymore, this marriage, we may call it off."

After finishing speaking, he said to Li Laoer: "You let her go quickly and let her go to the court with me, and dismiss this marriage today-this matter must be brought to court, otherwise my daughter will also die." will be delayed."

Li Lao Er felt that Mu Changguang's request was very reasonable. After all, the Mu family was also a victim. It was normal to want justice, so he asked Shi, "Are you going to withdraw the marriage? Go, I will let you go." .”

Go to court to divorce?No, no, no!Li Laoer didn't know that Mu Changguang was an official in the yamen, but Shi knew it. With his status here, the county magistrate would definitely have a partial view and send Yu Tianshi to prison!Mu Changguang's words were scarier than the pig-killing knives used by Li's father and son. Shi Shi started to cry, and the tears flowed down his cheeks to the blade, dripping and dripping.

She still didn't express her opinion, Li Er Er became irritable, and his hand tightened, the blade cut Shi's neck, and bright red blood flowed out.

Shishi felt a sharp pain in her neck, and boldly lowered her head to look, only to see blood flowing down her chest, already staining her clothes red, she screamed and fainted.

Where have the ladies seen such a scene, they all screamed and became a mess again, even the male guests were a little panicked, fearing that Mrs. Shi would really be killed, they rushed to persuade him Yu Tianshi: "Since the Mu family has agreed to divorce, why is your wife still hesitating? Are you not afraid that you will really lose your life?"

A few discerning people were even more straightforward: "Aren't you just afraid of going to court? But this matter is no small matter. It is impossible to prevent the Mu family from suing the officials. Mu Changguang is willing to agree to withdraw in front of Li's second son." , I have already given you face, what else do you want?"

Yu Tianshi hesitated, Mu Changguang interjected, and said, "Everyone has seen it, but you want to testify to me, it's not that I'm not going to save you, it's that their wife doesn't want to leave."

The guests nodded one after another, and while fighting for the Mu family, they went to persuade Yu Tianshi. After persuading for a while, Yu Tianshi finally agreed to go with Mu Changguang, and Li Laoer also let Shi Shi go, took Li Zhuangshi, and went up with him In court, I went to testify.

Mu Qingwan was dumbfounded as she watched from the sidelines. Everyone in Yu's family was so weird, but Yu Tianshi didn't even save his wife because he was afraid of going to jail; I have time to worry about other things; and Yu Dawei... Hey, where is Yu Dawei?Only then did she realize that Yu Dawei had disappeared. He must have been hiding somewhere out of fear of accidents.

This is really... Fortunately, she will not marry into Yu's family, otherwise she will die of anger or death.

Yu Tianshi went to the court, but Yu Dawei was nowhere to be seen, Mrs. Shi was carried to the room, and the owner's house was gone. Mu Qingwan thought that the guests would gradually disperse, but who would have thought that all the wives would gather around , Some complained for them, some rejoiced for them, and more, they recommended themselves and wanted to become the new in-laws of the Mu family.

Mu Qingwan was wearing that tender willow-yellow gown and skirt, standing there slim and graceful, with a generous demeanor, which was praised by the wives, and in a blink of an eye she became the object of everyone's pursuit. Seeing Mu Qinglian, she was jealous and regretful. Knowing that things would change suddenly, she followed Mu Qingwan's example and dressed up more brightly.

The Kang family has always been careful and cautious. There was no news from Mu Changguang, so she dared not promise anything lightly. Therefore, facing many enthusiastic wives, she only had to deal with a few words before pulling Mu Qingwan and Mu Qinglian away. , went to the second gate and boarded the carriage.After waiting for a while, Aunt Luo also came. I don't know if it was an illusion, but Mu Qingwan always felt that the way she looked at her was quite different, and she actually smiled brightly at her.

Why, she is about to become a free person, Aunt Luo is also very happy?Forget it, there is nothing to be courteous to, rape or steal, she should stay away from her, Mu Qingwan turned her head sideways, pretending to look at the scenery outside the car window, avoiding her sight.

Just now when Li's father rushed into the garden, the banquet had just started, and everyone hadn't eaten anything yet. Now that they were tossing around, they became even hungrier, so Kang decided to find a restaurant outside for dinner first, and then Go home and ask everyone: "Do you want to go to Fumanlou or Jujinglou?"

Fumanlou and Jujinglou are the two largest restaurants in Yangxing County. It seems that although the era of this dynasty is unknown, the folk customs are considered civilized, and women can also go out to eat.Mu Qingwan had never been to these two restaurants, so she picked one at random: "Let's go to Jujinglou."

Mu Qinglian is used to playing against Mu Qingwan, and this time is no exception: "Let's go to Fumanlou, his food is richer."

Unexpectedly, Aunt Luo said: "The dishes in Jujinglou are more exquisite, let's go to Jujinglou."

Aunt Luo actually helped Mu Qingwan speak?Even though it's a place to eat, this attitude is too surprising!Didn't she say a few days ago that she should unite and deal with Mu Qingwan together?Why did you eat your own words in the blink of an eye?Mu Qinglian looked up at her, and couldn't believe her ears.

Sensing Mu Qingwan's gaze, Aunt Luo felt a little uncomfortable, but she didn't change her words, she just turned her head out of the window.

Kang was also very surprised by Aunt Luo's attitude, but she didn't think too much, and directly ordered the coachman to drive the carriage to Jujinglou.

Mu Qingwan glanced at Aunt Luo, and the words came to her mind involuntarily: She is courteous for nothing, rape or steal, she must have some kind of plan, so she suddenly changed her attitude.

Jujinglou is located in an alley next to the busiest street in Yangxing County. It is quiet amidst the hustle and bustle. The dishes are fresh and exquisite. Of course, the price is not cheap. If you don’t have any money at home, you dare not enter.

It was not the first time for the coachman to bring them here, he knew the way and parked the carriage directly in front of the side door. After they got out of the carriage, they were led by the waiter to the private room on the second floor through the stairs inside the door.

In the private room, it is very elegantly furnished. There is an arhat bed for the guests to rest on, and there is also a separate wash room. As soon as they sat down at the table of the Eight Immortals, Aunt Luo said: "Although the two ends of the Yu family are engaged, it is really disgusting. But to know the truth today and no longer be deceived is considered a happy event, so we should bring wine and celebrate."

Aunt Luo has been in the house for more than three years, and for the first time, Mrs. Kang felt that what she said was reasonable, so she nodded slightly.

The waiters in the restaurant are all good people. Seeing this, they immediately recommended the new pear wine in their shop, saying that drinking it can nourish the lungs and nourish the body fluid, and it has a magical effect.

Mu Qingwan has written a lot of ancient novels, so she naturally knows about them, but knowing it is one thing, seeing it with her own eyes and tasting it with her own mouth is another, so she immediately became interested and looked at it with anticipation. To Kang.

Mrs. Kang looked at Aunt Luo, but Aunt Luo looked back at her, waiting for her to speak. This is really surprising. You must know that in the past, she was the one who made the decisions when going to restaurants, and she directly ordered the waiter. what happened?Mrs. Kang took another look at Aunt Luo, making sure that she let herself decide, so she asked the waiter to serve the wine, and after asking everyone's opinions, ordered a few dishes.

As expected of a big restaurant, Jujinglou served the food very quickly. After a while, the food and wine were all ready. Mu Qingwan tasted the wine, and it was really sweet and sweet, not like wine, but like fruit juice.Thanks to the blessing of going out today, there is finally meat on the table instead of just eating vegetables, which made her very happy, and she ate with chopsticks.

Mu Qinglian was also hungry, so she didn't bother to think about why Aunt Luo had rebelled, so she picked up food first.

Aunt Luo held up her wine glass and came to pay respects to Mrs. Kang, with a heart-to-heart look: "Ma'am, we are engaged at both ends, and we are completely ignored. This marriage is good to retire, but the third girl will be fifteen soon. You have to hurry up on finding your in-laws, otherwise, no matter how old you are, it won't be us who pick others, but others will pick us."

Mrs. Kang felt that what Aunt Luo said today was very pleasant, so she nodded involuntarily.

Aunt Luo put down her wine glass, moved closer to her, and said with a smile: "Ma'am, you know Bai Caiban in the yamen. There is a second son in his family, who is about the same age as the third girl in our family, and he is very romantic. Suave, the matchmaker who came to their house to talk about marriage can almost break the threshold, but their family's vision is very high, and ordinary people don't look down on them, so they only set their eyes on our third girl..."

Kang frowned, a little unhappy, no matter how urgent Mu Qingwan's marriage was, she couldn't tell her in front of her, it would make her feel ashamed.

Mu Qingwan is no longer her true self, so naturally she won't be really shy, she's just suave and suave, is that really the standard for choosing a spouse in ancient times?I'm afraid I have no other advantages to mention, so I have no choice but to insist on this, right?
Aunt Luo sensed that Mrs. Kang was unhappy, and hurriedly said: "I was just afraid that my wife would miss out on such a good family, so I hurriedly mentioned it first, and I will talk about it in detail with my wife when I get home. " After finishing speaking, he did not forget to add: "Madam, the Bai family has a clean family background and is rich, so it is a good match with our family; and we both live in Yangxing County, and Bai Caiban and the master are colleagues. The third girl is married, so you don't have to worry about being bullied."

Kang is still frowning, but based on Mu Qingwan's understanding of her these days, she is obviously tempted. After all, what Aunt Luo said is very reasonable. Marrying the son of Mu Changguang's colleague is more reassuring than marrying someone else much.
