Marry a concubine? Reborn to move out of the mansion and marry a general

Widow Wang used to take on rough laundry work for wealthy families, so she naturally knew the rules and taboos of wealthy families.

The marriage of a young lady or a young man is not something that can be decided by oneself. Even the maids and servants have to obtain the grace of their masters before the marriage can be completed. There can be no private affairs.

If someone's words or actions are a little bit careless and spread gossip, he will be killed to prove his innocence!

Even the most beloved daughter in the family is no exception!

After all, there is more than one daughter in the whole family!

Seeing the widow Wang's expression, the shopkeeper sighed deeply again: "Even if we take a step back, if your son really gets married to Qingshuang, and you don't want to, you should have quietly prepared a generous gift and come to her house to talk it out in private. Why did you let your daughter block the road in the street and shout it out for everyone to know? To put it mildly, you are trying to force Qingshuang to death. To put it seriously, you are slapping my boss in the face in public! The Ning and Gu families are relatives, and you have offended both of them in one go! Sigh..."

The more the shopkeeper talked, the more panicked Widow Wang became. Of course she knew all this, but when someone said it out loud, she became even more terrified!

Her throat was tight, and she was about to speak, but Wang Qiulian leaned forward and said, "Mother, what are you afraid of? We didn't lie. Could what my brother said be false? But that lady actually said in public that I stole those handkerchiefs and gold bracelets! It's totally unreasonable. I will go to the government office and beat the drum to protest my innocence!"

"Snapped!"

Wang Qiulian's voice suddenly stopped, she covered her face and stared at her mother in disbelief!

From childhood to adulthood, no matter how naughty she was or how much trouble she got into, Widow Wang never hit her!

"Mom! You actually hit me! You don't trust your own daughter, but trust outsiders!" Wang Qiulian felt wronged and angry!

Widow Wang burst into tears: "Fool! It's all because I spoiled you too much in the past. Now, you have ruined your brother and yourself. The Wang family is finished!"

“Mom!” Wang Qiulian stamped her feet: “Don’t be frightened by a few words…”

"Shut up!" Widow Wang wiped her tears fiercely and glared at him:

"You only remember your brother coming back to tell you about his relationship with Miss Qingshuang. Do you remember him telling you that you must not tell anyone a word about this, or else you'll get into trouble!"

Wang Qiulian avoided his gaze: "Brother is just timid..."

"Idiot, your whole family is timid, but you are the bravest. Is the Wang family supported by your mouth?" Widow Wang was so disappointed that her face was filled with despair:

"It's because of your father's life and your brother's military achievements that the neighbors, the shopkeepers, and the shopkeeper Cheng Da are willing to support us!"

"You only know how to show off. You know nothing about what's going on in the mansion. You're not willing to ask anyone, and you just do whatever you want. Do you know how the daughter of Mr. Pan in the west city was lost?"

Wang Qiulian was stunned by the question. After thinking for a long time, she finally remembered: "Didn't he die suddenly of an acute illness?"

Widow Wang burst into tears and sighed, "Your father died before you were born. I pitied you for losing your father since childhood, and I took extra care of you. I should have taught you these things long ago, but I was afraid of scaring you, so I never had the heart to tell you. Today I will tell you that Miss Pan was the only daughter in the family. She was doted on by her parents. But she was just on a spring outing and accepted a flower handed over by the coachman. Unfortunately, someone else saw it and as soon as the gossip spread, Master Pan strangled her to death with a hemp rope!"

Widow Wang said at the end, her face grim: "And that Miss Li from the east of the city, she just accidentally left an embroidered handkerchief behind, and it was picked up by a lecher, who then spread nonsense in front of others. In order not to drag down the other sisters in the family, she jumped into the well!"

Wang Qiulian didn't know whether she was frightened by the old lady's expression or by what she said.

The person who was just responding to every word he said is now shaking like a sieve!

"Now you know what trouble you have caused, right?" Widow Wang smiled sadly:

"Your brother said that he fell in love with Qing Shuang and asked mother to propose marriage. Mother was thinking that she was of noble status and was afraid that if the gift was too little, she would be looked down upon. So she searched through all her boxes and cabinets to gather money. But you rejected her by stopping her in the street!"

"If Miss Qingshuang gets into an accident, what do you think will happen to your brother? Will he still recognize you as his sister? Without your brother's support, who will seek justice for you when you get married and get wronged?"

Widow Wang became more and more desperate as she spoke: "Forget it, why should I think so much? Although you have ruined Miss Qingshuang's reputation today, how good is it for you? No wonder the neighbors say that you are a powerful sister-in-law and no one dares to marry into the Wang family! Now that your brother can't marry you, and you can't get married, the Wang family will be extinct!"

Wang Qiulian's knees softened, and she knelt on the blue brick with a plop. Her face was filled with fear. "Mom, I... I didn't want to kill her! I didn't! I just saw that she was squandering money and was not a virtuous woman. I was angry for a moment, so I stopped her and said these words..."

"What a fool! Your brother has already said that the Gu family's business is all over Wu State, and a few taels of silver are just dust under their fingernails! Besides, she is spending her own money now, why are you so angry? To be frustrating, if she marries us in the future, I'm afraid our whole family will have to rely on her money to make a living. How can you be angry with her?"

The mother and daughter cried together. Although Widow Wang was filled with hatred, Wang Zhong was her only son. The prosperity of the Wang family depended on him.

She had not thought about marrying up to a rich and powerful man before. Instead, she felt that the other party's family was too high and that her family was marrying too high. She was afraid that her son would be wronged in the future.

But now, let alone whether to marry her or not, the question is whether she can let me go!

When my son came back that day and talked about Qingshuang, it was obvious from his words and expression that he was deeply in love with her. Now that this has happened, how is my son going to deal with it?

Widow Wang was heartbroken and wanted to beat the stupid girl to death with a stick, but after all, she was the daughter she had carried for ten months and given birth to despite countless cold stares and sarcasm.

"Pfft!"

Widow Wang knelt down and held Wang Qiulian's head. Both mother and daughter kowtowed to the owner of the clothing store:

"Boss, please speak up for us in front of the Madam and give us a chance to make amends. As long as the Madam and Miss Qingshuang can forgive us, we are willing to do it even if it means losing everything we have!"

The owner of the clothing store shook his head repeatedly: "I'm afraid this matter is not something that can bankrupt the whole family. Not only are you panicking, but I am also at a loss now. The boss only asked me to explain the reason to you in detail. I have explained it clearly here, and of course I have to report it. Considering our previous dealings, I will sound out the boss's attitude for you. But if the boss insists on being serious, don't blame me for not trying my best!"
