Chapter 17
Even if the marriage certificate of the Zeng family is proved to be true, so what?
Could it be that the marriage certificate of the Yuan family is a fake?
Even though the Ninth Grandfather of the Song family was highly respected and well-informed, he didn't know what to do when he encountered this kind of housework that was difficult for an upright official to resolve.
Related to the second half of her daughter's life, of course Qian couldn't let Zeng get the upper hand.
She pointed to the marriage letter of the Yuan family and said: "I have never heard of the marriage of the Zeng family, but it is the marriage of the Yuan family. The master told me about it early in the morning, and specially invited Mr. Li to be a witness. I am afraid that it will take a long time." , what will happen.
"Let's look at the marriage certificate of the Zeng family again. The witnesses and witnesses are all old relatives of the Zeng family, and there is not even a serious official media."
When Li Jin was the county magistrate in Liang County, he was deeply loved by the people because of his achievements.
Everyone listened to what Qian said, and naturally they were more inclined to marry the Yuan family.
Seeing Song Jiyun's mother and daughter now, Mrs. Zeng can't wait to swallow them in one gulp to relieve her hatred.
But now is not the time to settle accounts.
She suppressed her anger and read the Yuan family's marriage letter carefully again, and then looked at Qian's eyes with a bit of condescending disdain.
She asked Yuan Yunzhong: "Young Master Yuan, are you twenty-one years old?"
He looked at her indifferently, without saying a word.
Mrs. Zeng was slightly annoyed, but she could only turn around, and said to the people inside and outside the gate: "Just now everyone saw that there is a clause in the marriage letter of the Yuan family, which says that Mr. Yuan and the queen should come to marry my granddaughter."
Ji Guan is twenty years old.
The people who watched the excitement exploded all of a sudden.
Mrs. Zeng glanced at Song Jiyun's mother and daughter.
Ms. Qian's face turned pale, but Song Jiyun acted like nothing happened, patted on Mrs. Qian's hand to comfort her.
Mrs. Zeng sneered in her heart, and said loudly: "Fellows in my big hometown, even if you haven't experienced it yourself, you should have heard about it. The eldest girl of our second family has been working since she was twelve years old. , her father was worried about her marriage.
"My granddaughter's father almost went to see all the men in Liang County who are of the right age for my granddaughter.
"This is no secret in Liang County.
"Do you know why?"
Everyone fell silent suddenly, and some troublemakers asked loudly: "Why is this?"
She glanced at the crowd, and then said sharply: "That's because our family and the Yuan family had no news when my granddaughter was ten years old."
According to the law of this dynasty, three do not marry.
After the engagement, the man and the woman die for some reason;
"No!" Qian Shi said, "Our two families still have contacts."
Mrs. Zeng ignored her, and said directly: "But our second child is a kind person, and he doesn't want to make a new marriage for my granddaughter, and he is afraid that there is no news from the Yuan family when the appointment is made, so it has only been three months. A year ago, when Young Master Yuan and Guan hadn't come to ask for a marriage, they made a marriage arrangement for my granddaughter from the Zeng family."
Everyone talked a lot.
There are those who love their children and say, "Should!"
There are also those who feel that Song Youliang is righteous, saying: "No wonder the second master Song's business can be so big, so good, honest and trustworthy."
Some were even moved by the Zeng family: "The Song family should marry the Zeng family."
Mrs. Zeng stood on the steps with her back straight, raised her chin and glanced at Song Jiyun's mother and daughter from the corner of her eye. It seemed that she was not standing at the gate of the Song family, but on the emperor's golden hall.
Ms. Qian held Song Jiyun's hand tightly.
Song Jiyun looked at Mrs. Zeng expressionlessly, and supported his mother to stand quietly beside Song Daliang.
"Mother," she said worriedly, "Grandmother and third uncle can get me engaged to the Zeng family behind our backs today, will they make third uncle's son throw a pot at my father tomorrow behind our backs?"
What? ! Throw the basin!
Song Daliang's ears perked up.
Only sons who inherit the family business are eligible to throw pots.
In the same way, only the offspring who fell into the basin are eligible to fight for family property.
He is also going to let his son throw a pot for the second child!
Then I heard Qian sigh and said: "It's okay to let your third uncle's son throw a basin at your father, I'm afraid that the Zeng family will also have the same idea at that time!"
Song Daliang suddenly felt that he was enlightened.
What kind of nonsense engagement, the Zeng family must be planning the son-in-law's visit!
No wonder his mother and the third child didn't tell him, the two of them had already discussed how to divide the property of the second child, right?
After a long time, only he was kept in the dark.
He was just thinking that Song Jiyun was too powerful, so his mother and his third brother could find a way to marry her off.
I didn't expect him to be the one who got caught!
He strode out from behind Song Jiyun's mother and daughter, and saw his mother triumphantly say to Yuan Yunzhong: "Good boy, it's not that I don't agree with your marriage with my granddaughter. It's because you came late, and our Song family not fated!"
Those who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal echoed "it's a pity".
What a pity your mother!
Song Daliang got angry from his heart, shouted "Mother", walked to the opposite of Zeng's, and said loudly: "The eldest girl of the second family is engaged to the Zeng family, why didn't I know?"
"What?!" Zeng's feigned kind smile froze on his face, looking at Song Daliang as if he saw a ghost.
The crowd is more like a bowl of water being poured into a hot oil pan.
"What happened?"
"have no idea!"
"This is the elder of the Song family, right?"
Song Daliang turned a deaf ear to those discussions, looked deeply at Zeng, and said loudly: "Engagement is not raising an illegitimate child, it is shameful. One side is my uncle's house, and the other is my younger brother's house. How can I get married? This eldest uncle has neither seen a bag of tea from the Zeng family, nor a piece of pastry from the Zeng family. What kind of relationship is this?"
Yuan Yunzhong's eyes were bright, and he looked at Song Jiyun with some interest.
Song Jiyun noticed the sight cast on her, and gave him a warning look.
There was a "boom" in the crowd, saying anything.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Zeng's voice was unprecedentedly sharp, pointing at Song Daliang's nose and yelling, "Get out of here!"
Song Sanliang also ran over with a face like a pot, pulled Song Daliang and said: "Brother, if there is anything, we will talk about it when we go back to the room."
Go back to the room and say, is that still clear?
Song Daliang gave Song Sanliang a "bah", ran up to Mr. Song Jiu, pretended to read and re-read the two marriage letters, and said, "My second brother is very suspicious. Add a seal. If you don’t believe me, look at his deeds. It’s impossible for him not to put his seal on his daughter’s marriage certificate!”
He also called Master Zeng who was stunned by his actions: "Come over and have a look too. Where did you get the marriage certificate? Why doesn't it look like our second child's handwriting! And this witness Ah, matchmakers and so on, they are all kinds of things, there is no face at all. This doesn't seem like something our second child can do!"
