Three days later, Shen Wan and Mrs. Li met Xiao Yanlu and Xiao Yanlu and his son, and they really brought An Chun.

An Chun faced Shen Wan with flickering eyes, feeling a little guilty.

But for the benefit that Xiao Yulang promised to give, as long as she told the truth about what she saw and heard in front of Old Madam Li, she would be left as a maid in Xiao's house and given 50 taels of silver, she would dare to say those things. It's not good for Shen Wan.

In fact, old lady Li didn't know that Shen Wan and Jing Lan had an affair. When Jing Lan left Shen's house, Shen Wan knelt down in front of her and begged for mercy, saying that she liked Jing Lan and wanted to let Mrs. Li The wife fulfilled her.

Therefore, An Chun didn't surprise Old Madam Li too much by telling what she saw and heard.

After An Chun finished speaking, the old lady Li just said softly: "Understood, you can step back."

When An Chun stepped back, she added another sentence: "A person like you who betrays the master will not end well."

An Chun raised her head and saw the contemptuous eyes of the old lady Li, she couldn't help shrinking her neck, and when she opened her eyes, she also saw Shen Wan looking at her like a sword of ice, she couldn't help but tremble in her heart one time.

Lowering his head, An Chun turned around and walked out of Yannian Hall at a faster pace.

Xiao Yulang was quite complacent at the moment. He glanced at Shen Wan and saw that her face was covered with frost, while Old Madam Li's face was as heavy as water, and she was slowly drinking a cup of tea, not knowing what she was thinking.

After a pause, he said what he had thought up a long time ago: "Old lady, you heard An Chun's words just now, so you know we never slandered Shen Wan. I still said that, Jun Pei followed such a ridiculous mother, I Don't worry about being a father. Please ask the old lady to call Jun Pei and let her follow me back to Xiao's house."

Old Madam Li put down the teacup in her hand, and then slowly said: "An Chun is just a maid of my family who was sold out, and she has resentment towards my family A Wan in her heart, so it is very possible to spread rumors and cause trouble. I don't really believe her one-sided words, unless a few more people come to me and tell me. However, you and your father are not counted, after all, you only found out after listening to An Chun's words. "

"Old lady! You!" Xiao Yulang suddenly became angry when he heard this, pointing at the old lady Li and said, "So you already knew about this and asked me to bring An Chun in for questioning, but it was just a feint to delay. However, I said the ugly things up front, if you don't give me Jun Pei, then I will definitely let everyone in Jinling City know about Shen Wan's scandalous deeds, let her, let the Shen family's reputation be ruined!"

Now that Shen Wan spoke, she scolded Xiao Yulang: "Xiao, put your hand down, this is the Shen family, not your Xiao family, how dare you point your finger at my old lady, your grandfather won't let you take over the Xiao family. It's reasonable. Jun Pei, I won't give it to you. After we reconcile, you marry a wife and take concubines, and your children live together. You don't need to think that Jun Pei is a good excuse to fight for Jun Pei. What do you think, I don't know It's very clear. Let me advise you, don't be instigated and used by others, just jump out and make trouble for me. If you want to ruin my reputation, I'm not afraid. If you want to make our Shen family lose face, then you are making enemies of the Shen family. I don’t know if you have discussed this matter with your grandfather, is it because your grandfather didn’t know about it, you’re here again?”

At the end, Shen Wan's tone became mocking, with a look of contempt on her face.

Shen Wan's words undoubtedly hurt Xiao Yulang seriously, and they hit the point.

Indeed, they learned of Shen Wan's affair with the maid Mo Jing only after they got Shen Shilian's letter, and also learned of An Chun's whereabouts from his letter.Shen Shilian said that An Chun was sold out because he found out about Shen Wan's affair with the maid An Lan, but the Naya man took his favor and just sold An Chunfa to a wealthy family in a town near Jinling maid.As long as Xiao Yulang finds it, he can buy An Chun from the rich man with some extra money. With An Chun, he can find trouble with Shen Wan and ask Shen Wan to give him Jun Pei, or let him buy it. Shen Wan offered a large sum of money, otherwise Shen Wan's scandal would be announced and she would not be able to stay in Jinling City any longer.

In the past few years, Xiao Yulang has been very depressed. He doesn't know how much he hates Shen Wan, and thinks that Shen Wan caused him to lose his qualification to be the head of the Xiao family.He has been deliberately trying to get revenge on Shen Wan.After receiving Shen Shilian's letter, Xiao Yulang didn't say a word, took the money and went directly to the wealthy family in the town outside Jinling City mentioned in Shen Shilian's letter, and then spent double the money to buy An Chun and brought him back to Xiao's house .

Then, he told his father that he had grasped the handle on Shen Wan, and that he could take revenge on her severely. Xiao Yanlu accompanied his son to the Shen's house, and after seeing the old lady Li, he said those threatening words.

Originally, she thought that Shen Wan would be deflated this time, but looking at the current situation, Shen Wan didn't seem to be afraid of his threat, and instead ridiculed him for losing the qualification to be the head of the Xiao family.Not only that, but she also said that if he went to publicize her scandal, if the reputation of the Shen family was damaged, it would be the Xiao family's opposition to the Shen family.

It was because of his fight with Shen Wan before, and later when there was a conflict between the Shen family and the Xiao family, his grandfather took care of the overall situation and gave him, the eldest grandson of the Xiao family, the qualification to inherit the position of patriarch.

It is true that he has not told his grandfather about this matter, Shen Wan's words reminded him, if he targets Shen Wan this time, takes revenge on her, and escalates into a conflict between the two families, will his grandfather punish him again.

It's just that now he has nothing left for his grandfather to fine, fine money, he doesn't have much money.

If you want to start a family law against him, at most you will be beaten.

He quickly weighed, let Shen Wan's reputation be discredited and his grandfather ordered him to beat him up with family law. Between the two, he chose to get beaten himself, and he wanted to take revenge on Shen Wan.Besides, the business that the Xiao family is doing now has nothing to do with the Shen family. Even if the Shen family is against the Xiao family, what can they do to the Xiao family?

The next moment, Xiao Yulang put down his hand pointing at Old Madam Li with a dark face, and gave Shen Wan a fierce look. He said sternly, "Shen Wan, let's read the libretto while riding a donkey, we'll see!"

After speaking, he walked away.

Xiao Yanlu saw his son turn around and leave angrily, so he stood up quickly and followed him out.

The father and son walked out of Yannian Hall, followed by An Chun.

"Yulang, are you really going to fight against Shen Wan this time, and make the whole Jinling City know about the absurd things she did? Your grandfather doesn't know about this, why don't you go back and tell him, and see what kind of man he is. What do you mean?" Xiao Yanlu said to Xiao Yulang as he walked out.

Xiao Yulang shook his head, gritted his teeth and said, "This time, no matter what, if I want to discredit that bastard Shen Wan, even if my grandfather finds out and uses family law against me, I won't be afraid. Father, just leave this matter alone, so as not to waste time And implicated you in it again, making grandfather unhappy."

Xiao Yanlu: "This...well...you can do it at ease, your grandfather knows, and I will help you talk."

Geng Shi agreed to Qi An, and tomorrow he will take his son Geng Hu to the Lu family in Jinling to discuss with Lu Jinglan.

Qi An took out two notes that had been written earlier, one of which said that Geng Shi had borrowed 100 taels of silver from Ge Dalang and would pay it back in three days.One said that Ge Dalang would lend 200 taels of silver to Geng Shi three days later, and the repayment period was when Geng Shi had money.Ge Dalang is the eldest brother of Qi An's wife, Ge Shi, and Qi An used his name to write this IOU.

Geng Shi put his fingerprint on the first note.

Qi An took the fingerprinted note in the past, and handed another note to Geng Shi, saying: "I will take this IOU, you will go to Lu's house and say what you should say in the future. Just tear up this IOU. Take the other 200 taels note. When we meet in three days, I will give you 200 taels of silver. Give me this note, and I will burn it in front of you. "

Geng Shi nodded, put away the note, and at the same time put away the 100 taels of snowflake silver on the table, and wrapped it in a piece of cloth.

Qi An then left, saying that he would go back and wait for good news about their father and son.

After sending Qi An out, Geng Shi closed the courtyard door, turned his head to look at the green brick and tile house of the Lin family next door, and sneered unconsciously

Walking back to the main room, he saw his wife Chai looking at him, and asked in a trembling voice, "You...you really want to take Ah Hu to Jing Lan and say those things that hurt her face? Also, she is a famous family now. The eldest lady of the famous family, if you say that she was engaged to Ah Hu, isn't that intentional to make it difficult for her to get married in the future? For a girl's family, marriage is a big deal, just like a male examiner. If Jing Lan is harmed, it will be difficult for her If you marry, you will have a real enmity with her. Jinglan's parents, brothers, sisters and clansmen will all hate us because of this, they are a big family..."

What Chai said made Geng Shi frowned, but after looking at the 100 taels of silver wrapped in blue cloth on the table, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "What we said to the Lu family is also the truth. Marry our family Ah Hu. You just think about us and talk about it. Jing Lan will not get married in the future. Why don’t you think about our family Ah Hu being killed by Jing Lan? He looks like a fool. When I think of this, I will I think we should ask Jing Lan for an explanation. Now, there is someone who just thinks what we think and gives us so much money back. I would be foolish if I didn’t take Ah Hu to Lu’s house. Don’t worry about it , I have made up my mind. Tomorrow I will take Ah Hu to the Lu family in Jinling. Don't be afraid, if the Lu family dares to bully us, we will sue them in the yamen. Their big family is most afraid of getting a bad reputation. "

"Hey...you go, be careful when you go out." Chai finally sighed, she is a woman, she can only express her worries, but she can't make up her mind.

The next day, Geng Shi really took his son Ah Hu out to Jinling.

He brought a few taels of silver, packed a bundle with some clothes for himself and his son, walked to the town, hired a mule cart, and sat to Jinling City.

After entering Jinling City, he inquired where the Lu family was, and asked the coachman to drive the mule cart to the west corner gate of Lu's house. Then he took his son Geng Shun out of the car and walked towards the west corner gate.

Before Qi An left yesterday, he told him that if he brought his son Ah Hu to Lu's house, he would go to the Xijiao Gate and ask the servant at the door to see Mrs. Yuan, the second bedroom, and someone would go in and deliver the message for him.
