Wang Jiaojiao was a little scared after hearing what Mrs. Wang said. No matter how domineering she was, she relied on the Wang family. If something happened to the Wang family, there would be no good results for her, let alone a promising young man like Marry Shi Huixin. Now, even the dandies, few are willing to marry her.
It's just... I just asked her to give up, but she was really unwilling to do so. She finally got a reply from Shi. She was born well and had a bright future, but she had Su Wan as her backer, which the Wang family was not easy to mess with.
Mrs. Wang said: "Go back and discuss it with your father."
Wang Jiaojiao finally stopped talking.
After the Wang family's mother and daughter left, Shan Wu also wanted to say goodbye, but Mrs. Zhou stopped her: "Wait!"
Shanwu turned around, nodded slightly and lowered his eyebrows, and asked, "Does Madam Shi have anything else to do?"
Mrs. Zhou paused for a moment, holding the wooden beads in her hand but hesitated to speak. After a while, she asked: "But your princess asked you to come here?"
Shan Wu smiled and then nodded: "It was the order from Sister Xiao Sang. She said that Mrs. Wang has come to the Shi family. The men in the family are not here, so we can't be bullied. Mrs. Shi, I'm taking my leave."
Zhou's heart was extremely complicated for a moment, and her eyes were a little dazed. She stood there for a long time without noticing that Shan Wu had left.
After Shanwu returned, he reported the Shi family's affairs to Su Wan. After hearing this, Su Wan stopped and asked her to leave.
She and Xiao Sang were sitting on the wooden couch near the window. She was reading and drinking tea, while Xiao Sang was busy sorting out the messy things in her jewelry box. At this time, the sunshine outside was shining in, making it warm and comfortable.
She looked at the blooming flowers in the yard and the butterflies flying around with flapping wings, and looked up along the light and shadow cast by the sky. The sky was clear, with occasionally one or two white clouds walking slowly by.
She smiled, feeling extremely calm.
There are too many entanglements, so she might as well live a good life, as long as she has a clear conscience.
When Li Lin came back, Su Wan told him what happened today, and finally said: "I am afraid that I will be angry if I reject them today, just because we don't care, but after we leave, the Shi family and the people in the village will If you want to live here, you must not become enemies with the Wang family."
"When you have time, go to the Wang family with a gift and talk to the head of the Wang family politely."
Li Lin frowned, feeling that the Shi family really had a lot to do, but he didn't want to bother Su Wan anymore with the Shi family's affairs, so he agreed.
"I'll go there one day when I have free time. Then I'll ask my uncle if he wants to go with us. After all, it's the Shi family's business."
Su Wan nodded: "You make the decision."
Two days later, when the academy was on holiday, Li Lin made an appointment with Shi Chongshan to go to the Wang family. Shi Chongshan knew about the Wang family's affairs and was extremely worried these days. He was afraid that the Wang family would force his daughter to marry him, and he was afraid that the Shi family would force her daughter to marry him. If you offend the Wang family, you will not have a good life in the future.
When he learned that Li Lin wanted to go to the Wang family with him to explain the matter, he naturally nodded in agreement: "Jing Yuan, what happened this time is really thanks to you and the princess. If the princess hadn't helped that day, the Wang family wouldn't have done it." I know what to do with your aunt."
"If the princess hadn't been there, the Wang family might have been forced to write back and marry their girl."
"If it were any other girl from the Wang family, she would be a side branch girl. As long as the girl is good, there is still room for discussion, but that Miss Wang is definitely not allowed."
Shi Chongshan was very unhappy with Wang Jiaojiao. From his point of view, a shameless woman like Wang Jiaojiao was a waste of air in the world. As long as she had any sense of shame, she should not live in this world.
He would rather die than let such a notorious woman enter the Shi family's door.
Shi Chongshan rambled for a while, feeling a little tired: "I heard that Mrs. Wang and your aunt almost had a quarrel, but the princess sent someone to stop it."
Shi Chongshan felt a little ashamed. He really didn't expect that at this time, Su Wan would help them regardless of the previous grudges.
Li Lin knew that Su Wan helped the Shi family not because of the Shi family, but to avoid trouble for him, but since Shi Chongshan thought so, he did not explain it. Regardless of the reason, it was a fact that Su Wan helped the Shi family. Should the Shi family feel guilty or grateful? Let them go as they please.
"I also know that this matter was not handled properly, and the Wang family may hold a grudge against the Shi family, but I am a petty person, so I dare not go to the Wang family to explain the matter. If Jing Yuan goes with me, I will feel relieved. "
Although it is said that this incident was caused by the Wang family themselves, for a family like the Shi family, the Wang family cannot afford to offend them. It would be best if things can be improved.
I'm just afraid of being resented by the Wang family and causing trouble somewhere.
In this era, it is really hard for ordinary people to offend the powerful people.
Li Lin nodded: "Uncle, please go with me tomorrow. I have already prepared the gifts, so you don't need to prepare them."
"It's so good, so good."
On the second day, Li Lin and Shi Chongshan went to Guiyan City, went to the Wang family in person, and met with the head of the Wang family. The head of the Wang family was different from Mrs. Wang Wang Jiaojiao. He was a little thin, and he looked very smiling. Easy to talk to.
After learning the reason why the two people came to the door, he was not upset, and asked people to invite them in, and then held a banquet in the guest garden to talk to them.
After hearing what Mrs. Wang said when she came back, the head of the Wang family thought about it and felt that he could not offend Shi Huixin by forcefully marrying his daughter off, and the Wang family in Suwan could not be offended either.
However, Shi Zhixin was really an excellent candidate, and he was reluctant to give up. He mentioned it again during the dinner. When Shi Chongshan refused, he didn't say anything. He was still polite when entertaining guests during the dinner.
When the two of them walked out of the Wang family's gate, Shi Chongshan breathed a sigh of relief and felt that the stone pressing on him had been completely removed.
"The head of the Wang family is quite polite. I thought it would not be so easy to escape."
Li Lin smiled: "Even though he is stupid, he also knows at this time that this marriage cannot be forced. If he forces it, the Wang family will be in trouble from now on. When my cousin gets promoted, they will be finished."
Shi Chongshan nodded: "I still have to thank you for this."
"No need to thank you, I just hope that the Shi family won't cause anything else in the future, and don't bother A Wan if you have nothing to do." Li Lin's voice was light.
"I know that my uncle doesn't want the relationship between the two families to be estranged, and wants to get along with each other as before. But my uncle should know one truth, that is, even if a broken mirror is reunited, there will be cracks in the mirror, and we will never be able to go back to the past."
"If anything happens to the Shi family in the future, just come to me."
