In the year of disaster in the book, the villain girl is the real winner

Wei Sixian shook her head palely.

"Mother, it's not like that, Mother..."

Old Lady He frowned, "Wei, are you saying that now that the eldest girl has been caught alone in a room with her cousin, and her clothes are disheveled, can they still live in peace? If this gets out, will the girls of the He family still want to get married?"

Wei Sixian said unconvincedly: "What about He Qingya? She has entered Qing..."

There was a "pop-" sound.

Old Mrs. He slapped her in the face.

"The second girl was harmed by that vicious woman Xu! She was only used as collateral for a debt, and she hasn't gone to that place yet! If you keep saying dirty things, I'll tear you apart! Don't think that just because the second girl has no mother, you can take advantage of being the wife of the county magistrate and bully others as you please!"

"I don't even have the right to decide the eldest girl's marriage? Didn't your nephew just say that you and your brother had already verbally promised their marriage? Didn't the eldest girl herself say that as long as your nephew is willing to marry her, she will marry him?"

"Even she herself agrees to this marriage, but you don't want to? Well, Wei Sixian, this He family will let you be the master?! You want to rebel against Tiangang! You even dare to refute and ignore your mother-in-law? What else are you afraid of? Do you believe that I will let Huaizhang divorce you?!"

Wei Sixian covered her face with her hands; her cheeks were burning with pain from being hit by Old Lady He.

When she heard Old Lady He say she wanted to divorce her, she looked at He Huaizhang in disbelief.

"Uncle, please say something."

He Huaizhang closed his eyes and said, "Sixian, since this is the marriage you and your brother have agreed on, then just do it as agreed before."

He also didn't want his daughter to be given to Wei Sixian's nephew for nothing.

but……

Feng Shiyan is just outside.

If he couldn't get promoted, he would go back on his word and refuse to acknowledge the marriage.

Wei Sixian withdrew her gaze in disappointment. She knew what He Huaizhang was worried about. This man had been frightened by Feng Shiyan's few words and wanted to push his daughter into the fire.

In the future, Qingshu will marry into a prominent family and become the wife of a clan leader. How can she marry her nephew from her natal family?

However, the nephew was obviously threatening him with the humiliation that happened to the four women in the back hills that day.

Wei Sixian covered her face to hide the sadness in her eyes.

"Since Master agrees, then I have nothing to say. It's all up to Auntie to decide."

Old Mrs. He looked at her sideways.

"From the look of you, are you very unhappy?"

Wei Sixian knelt down in front of Old Lady He, kowtowed and apologized.

"Mother, I'm sorry. I couldn't accept Qingshu marrying into the Wei family. I didn't react for a while and lost my composure. Please forgive me."

Old Mrs. He was really unhappy seeing Wei Sixian.

"So you have a problem with me leaving Qingshu in Shiliu Village to be filial to me and wait for her to get married?"

Wei Sixian didn't dare to talk back.

"My wife doesn't dare."

"That……"

"Mother," He Qiudi interrupted, "In another year, Qingshu will be 15 years old, and she won't have much time at home. Let her go to Jinshan County with her elder brother and sister-in-law to take up her post. Otherwise, she will blame you in the future."

Old Mrs. He said she wanted to keep He Qingshu in Shiliu Village just to threaten Wei Sixian.

Now that Wei Sixian has changed her mind and acknowledged the marriage, she is too lazy to keep He Qingshu in Shiliu Village.

Wei Sixian did not teach her daughter well. Before they got engaged, she was alone in a room with a man and had private affairs with him. It was really disgusting.

If she took over the task of disciplining He Qingshu, it would be a thankless task.

Neither He Huaizhang nor Wei Sixian are good people.

Qingshu was also corrupted, so she was too lazy to take the blame.

"Since Qiu Di has said so, the second girl doesn't need to stay in Shiliu Village. Let's go to Jinshan County with you. The better for them to get engaged, the sooner the better. Let's go to Wei County tomorrow to pick up Wei's sister-in-law, and then go to Shiliu Village to go through the formalities. We have to go through the three matchmakers and six betrothal gifts. Don't let others think that our He family is rude."

"This..." He Huaizhang hesitated.

Outside the room, Feng Shiyan said, "He County Magistrate, there is no need to rush to take office in the next one or two days. It will not be too late to go after your He family's wedding is settled."

He Huaizhang let out a long sigh: "Thank you for your consideration, Your Highness."

Just like that, He Qingshu's relationship with her cousin was settled.

Tonight, people from the He family and the Jin family will stay in the inn as usual and go back tomorrow morning.

After He Qiudi finished packing, she accompanied Feng Shiyan for a walk on the street.

Although the city gates have been closed, there is no curfew in the city and people can move around.

"Shi Yan, thank you for what you did today."

Feng Shiyan smiled and said, "It's just a piece of cake. But there are some secrets to this matter. Do you want to hear them?"

"Does Wei's nephew have evidence against Wei? Is it something that happened on the day the city was captured?"

"Did you guess it?"

He Qiudi smiled and said, "He Qingshu is not a person who compromises easily. If she is willing to agree, it must be because Wei's nephew has something on her. In addition, when Wei Sixian refused to acknowledge the marriage, her nephew said those words, and He Qingshu went crazy."

"Thinking about her state on the day when the He family was assassinated, I am sure that they wanted to escape on the day the city was captured, but they met refugees on the road. Most of them were women, and Wei's nephew did not seem like someone who could take on responsibilities."

"Plus, Mrs. Wei's death was strange, and I had slandered the Wei family for being humiliated when the city was captured, so her reaction was very guilty. All the signs show that it's not surprising what happened to them on the day the city was captured."

He Qiudi's sixth sense was indeed correct.

He Qiudi had once suspected the circumstances of Mrs. Wei's death.

After she finished speaking, Feng Shiyan nodded and said, "Indeed, in the back mountain of Wei County, they were attacked by a group of refugees... Wei was able to hold on. When they saw us fighting back to the city, they brought the people of the Wei family and carried Old Lady Wei back. And Wei's nephew used this incident to force He Qingshu to cooperate with him."

Although I guessed it roughly.

But from Feng Shiyan, we learned that after encountering such a thing, Wei was still able to let his nephew carry Old Lady Wei back when the army of the Great Zhou took back Wei County, and he also calmly arranged a series of subsequent events.

He Qiudi really admired Wei Sixian's mentality.

He is a ruthless person.

No wonder, he was able to devour the He family's money so naturally before, and everyone in the He family was willing to be sucked dry by the He family's eldest branch.

“Shi Yan, it’s hard for you to accompany us in such a trivial matter.”

"As long as it's related to you, it's not a small matter."

"Thank you."

Feng Shiyan said helplessly: "Qiu Di, you don't have to keep thanking me."

"Then what do you want?"

"Guess what?"

"Make you something delicious?"

“Why do you like to cook delicious food?”

He Qiudi tilted his head and thought for a while: "Maybe delicious food can make people feel happy. No matter how sad or unhappy you are, as long as there is warm food in your stomach, all the unhappiness can be taken away."

"it's my honour."
