Chapter 164: Taking the blame [Thanks to the monthly ticket support from Qidian.com with the last nu

After seeing off the guests, Sheng Hong felt relieved and seriously questioned Kang Jin: "My nephew just said he wanted to marry Molan. I remember you two didn't talk much before, why do you suddenly want to marry her?"

Kang Jin kowtowed heavily to Sheng Hong: "To be honest, uncle, I have always felt that your sisters..." Receiving Sheng Hong's unfriendly look, Kang Jin immediately changed his words, "...my brothers and sisters are all outstanding, and I admire them very much. I had no choice but to support my cousin today. After sending my cousin back to Linqi Pavilion, I also asked her if she was willing to marry me, and she said she was willing. Uncle, I know it is very abrupt to do this today, but since it has come to this point, it is better to just make the marriage a reality and save others from gossip."

Sheng Hong was actually very reluctant to marry his children to the Kang family. When Wang Ruofu said she wanted to marry Yuner to Changbai, Sheng Hong was almost scared to death. Kang Haifeng was fine, but the main thing was this aunt Wang Ruoyu, who was really disgusting from her face to her words and deeds. Over the years, he helped the Kang family cover up the troubles caused by Kang Wangshi.

But Kang Jin and Molan made such a big fuss today. If he doesn’t make an explanation to the public, won’t he be laughed at to death when he goes out in the future?

Wang Ruofu saw Sheng Hong's hesitant expression, as if he was about to agree, and said anxiously, "No! Absolutely not!"

Kang Wang had already thought of an excuse and shouted excitedly, "That's right! Absolutely not! I originally wanted to bring my son to meet Miss Hai, but it was that little bitch Molan who got in the way and ruined the marriage between my son and Miss Hai!"

Wang Ruofu was horrified: "Sister! Stop talking!"

She had always been worried that the women of the Hai family would expose the matter. She was secretly glad when she saw them leave without saying anything, but she didn't expect that her sister would give her such a big surprise the next moment.

Sheng Hong stared at Wang Ruofu with eyes wide open: "Why is this happening?"

Wang Ruofu hesitated and didn't dare to answer. Sheng Hong knew that this was true and scolded her: "You fool, you didn't tell your husband about such a big thing in advance. Do you want to kill Bai'er?"

Wang Ruofu hurriedly shouted, "No, no! How could I harm Bai'er! It's just... I just thought that since the two daughters of the Hai family haven't married yet, and my nephew hasn't been engaged yet, let the two sides meet. If it works out, wouldn't it be a closer relationship?"

Sheng Hong: "Kiss! The Hai family has their own plans for marriage, why would they want you to arrange a match for them?"

Wang Ruofu went to pull Kang Wangshi: "Sister, please say something for me." After all, it was Kang Wangshi who forced her to do this.

Kang Wangshi did speak, but she was not helping Wang Ruofu at all: "I originally wanted the girl from the Hai family, and we haven't even come to an agreement yet, but that little bitch Molan took advantage of the situation and swindled my son away. Brother-in-law, you should take care of your own daughter. My son will never marry her."

Sheng Hong was embarrassed to hear his daughter being spoken of in such a way by an outsider, and he said angrily, "Aunt sister, don't confuse right and wrong. You just heard that it was your son who insisted on marrying my daughter. How did it become that my daughter seduced your son?"

Kang Wangshi: "How can it not be seduction? She has been locked up in Linqi Pavilion for so long, why did she choose to come out when my son and I came?"

Sheng Hong: "I asked her to come out to meet the Hai family, not to meet you!"

Queen Kang choked and continued, "Why didn't she come earlier or later, but just when the mistress of the Hai family was being helped out, and she happened to meet my son at the door. Do you dare to say that this was not intentional?"

Sheng Hong: "She wants to meet the mother and daughter of the Hai family, so she naturally comes out at this time. Do I need to ask your opinion before my own daughter can come in and out of my house?"

Kang Wangshi: "Sheng Hong, don't think you can yell at me in your Sheng family. I am the eldest daughter of the Wang family and the daughter-in-law of the Kang family! If it weren't for our Wang family, do you think you could be transferred back to the capital so quickly to become a fifth-rank official? Humph, dream on!"

She has always been domineering, and now that Sheng Hong's words have humiliated her, she is even more furious and dares to say anything harsh.

Sheng Hong was a man who cared a lot about his reputation. Now he was being scolded by his aunt in front of the whole family. She even openly mentioned how the Wang family had supported him. He felt so humiliated!

Sheng Hong laughed twice: "Aunt, you are used to being so powerful in the Kang family. Do you want to make my Sheng family your territory?" He waved to Dong Rong at the door, "Please ask my majestic aunt and her son to leave. Our Sheng family is small and cannot accommodate such a powerful Buddha. Aren't you the eldest daughter of the Wang family and the daughter-in-law of the Kang family? If you kill someone in the Kang family again, don't come to me for help to cover it up. For such a shameful and dirty thing, aunt, go and discuss it with Kaifeng Prefecture yourself."

Dong Rong led two servants and dragged the Kang mother and son out.

Sheng Hong said to Wang Ruofu with a cold face: "From now on, the Sheng family will not allow you, a sister, to step into the house again. If you bring someone into the house behind my back again, I will send you back to the Wang family."

Then he pointed at the crying Molan and her daughter and said, "You! From now on, don't mention anything about marrying into the Kang family. I have already arranged a child for Molan in Youyang. In two days, Molan will pack her bags and go to Youyang."

When Lin Qinshuang heard that Molan was going so far, she asked anxiously, "What kind of family is she engaged to? Why didn't I hear Honglang mention it before?"

Sheng Hong: "It was just booked today, for a farmer's family."

Lin Qinshuang was stunned: "What? Farmers!" She suppressed her inner rage and asked in a gentle voice, "I wonder how many acres of good farmland they have? Are they wealthy merchants like Uncle Youyang's family?"

Sheng Hong: "Of course I can't compare with my elder brother, but my family has ten acres of paddy fields, so we are not poor."

Lin Qinshuang: "Do you have any achievements?"

Sheng Hong: “No.”

Lin Qinshuang: "Then...what did Honglang like about that boy?"

Sheng Hong: "His elder brother is a candidate under my tutelage. He is talented and cautious. He will definitely pass the imperial examination in the future."

Lin Qinshuang: "Then why not marry Mo'er to that scholar?"

Sheng Hong laughed: "Now that Mo'er is disabled, how can I marry her to a scholar? If Mo'er marries his brother, he will naturally help his brother if he passes the imperial examination in the future. Besides, Youyang has his elder brother's family, who can also support Mo'er."

Lin Qinshuang could no longer maintain her composure and burst into tears: "No, no! My Mo'er has been raised in luxury since she was a child, how can she marry that kind of person!"

Sheng Hong: "With her current condition, what family can she choose?"

Lin Qinshuang: "Didn't the young master of the Kang family just say that he wanted to marry her?!"

Sheng Hong: "Didn't you see how crazy Lady Kang was? Do you want your daughter to be tortured to death by her?"

Lin Qinshuang shouted: "It's better to die in the Kang family than in a farmer's home in Youyang!"

Sheng Hong was so angry that his teeth itched: "I think you are crazy too! Someone come, someone come!"

Dong Rong entered the room and clasped his fists and said, "Master."

"Drag Lin back to her Linqi Pavilion, put her under house arrest, and make her reflect on her mistakes facing the wall." Sheng Hong didn't even bother to look at Lin Qinshuang.

Molan rushed forward to block Lin Qinshuang and shouted, "Daddy, please let my mother go! My mother just feels sorry for me, she has done nothing wrong!"

Wang Ruofu was so happy watching this that she almost flew off. When she saw Molan pleading for Lin Qinshuang, she immediately scolded her, "How can Lin not have done anything wrong by contradicting the master and committing treason?"

Molan cried, "My dear little lady, she just felt sorry for Moer and said these words in a moment of desperation. She didn't mean to contradict me! If anyone meant to... it must be Minglan! All this was caused by Minglan!"

The whole family looked at Molan.

Sheng Hong: "What nonsense are you talking about? Your sister has been staying in Youyang with the old lady for more than half a year. Why do you want to blame her for everything?"

Molan: "My feet! My foot injury is all caused by her!"

Wang Ruofu: "Nonsense! Minglan was with us all the way. When you were injured, she was talking in the Zhang family's shed. How could she have the time to go to the mountains to harm you?"

Molan: "It was her. She colluded with Gu Tingye and asked Gu Tingye's servant to lure me into the mountains and set an ambush to injure me. She and Gu Tingye had been having an affair for a long time. I told my father at the time, but he didn't believe me and scolded me. I had no choice but to warn my sixth sister privately, asking her to keep her duty and not get too close to other men. But she not only didn't reflect on herself, but held a grudge and went to Gu Tingye to complain. The two of them teamed up to set a trap in the mountains to lure me into the mountains, and that's how I became disabled for life!"

She knew that she had no hope of marrying into a wealthy family, so she simply stopped struggling over marriage, but she was determined to take someone with her even if she died.
