Tong Ling'er thinks she is smart, but people in the world are not stupid. No matter what grudges she has with the young masters and girls of the Tong family, they should be covered up, and they should be harmonious outside.
No matter how the Tong family was kind to Tong Ling'er, they didn't deprive her of food, drink, and clothing. At most, they were a little unfriendly in their words, but since they were dependent on others, it was nothing to suffer a little grievance. Is it possible to repay her? Do you want your whole family to hold you up like an aunt?
Tong Ling'er's behavior was actually to take advantage of the reputation of the young master and girl of the Tong family to rise to the top, and to trample the Tong family's face to the ground.
Mrs. Wang did have some pity for Tong Ling'er in the past. She felt that it was really pitiful for her as an orphan to live in the care of others. Although she couldn't interfere in the Tong family's affairs, she occasionally let Tong Ling'er come to her at gatherings. He spoke with a hint of concern, thinking that the Tong family should also be more wary of him.
But she really didn't expect that there was such a statement in it.
It was Tong Ling'er who didn't unite her brothers and sisters, let alone protect the Tong family's face.
After a long time, Mrs. Wang said: "Since you have said this, I can't force you. After all, getting a wife is a major event for your life and your family. It is reasonable for you to think that she is a bad girl and not want to marry her back." matter."
Shi's reply to the letter mentioned this. If she still insists on letting Tong Ling'er marry into the Shi family, then it will really be difficult for her.
Moreover, people pointed out what was wrong with Tong Ling'er. They felt that marrying such a girl would be of no benefit at all, and it would cause trouble in the family. To blame, Tong Ling'er could only blame herself for being bad, and no wonder others didn't want you.
Shi replied and was relieved after hearing this: "Thank you, madam."
Fortunately, this old lady is still reasonable. If she were to forcefully pressure others, he might be forced to marry that Tong Ling'er. If he really married such a girl, he would rather give up his official career and return to the village to teach. Sir, I don’t dare hang out in the Imperial City anymore.
If such a girl becomes a wife, she may be killed one day.
But his marriage should really be settled, lest anyone dare to take his chances. If he meets someone like Tong Ling'er who is looking for death and life again, then I don't know if he will be lucky this time.
Shi was still worried when he replied and said goodbye.
Mrs. Wang ordered someone to inform Mrs. Tong, explaining that General Tong had asked her to help intercede and Shi had rejected the letter in reply. After hearing this, Mrs. Tong's face turned frighteningly dark and she was almost furious.
The relationship between the Tong family and the Duke of Jinning is really delicate. General Tong's father was once the right-hand man of Duke Jinning, but he is gone. Although General Tong has some abilities, he is not outstanding. These two Most of the relationships between families are supported by the favor of their parents in the past.
When it comes to favors, there are only so many, and they are gone once they are used up. People remember how good the Tong family was in the past. They could help you once, twice, or three times, but it is impossible to help you four, five, or unlimited times.
Has the Tong family always had no difficulties?
Of course there is.
However, Mrs. Tong felt that she would definitely not trouble the Jinning Palace if she could solve the problem. It was also because of such a relationship without much benefit that the relationship between the two families had always been so good.
As for that little favor, Mrs. Tong only wanted to use it for General Tong's career and her sons and daughters at home, or she would use this favor when she needed to ask for help.
Knowing that Tong Feng had sacrificed his face to beg Mrs. Wang, how could Mrs. Tong not explode? She suppressed her anger and sent her away. Then she turned around and went to Tong Ling'er's yard, pointing at her and scolding her. A meal.
The conditions of the Tong family are average. There is only one courtyard with three entrances, and there are only four courtyards. The Tong family's couple lived in the main courtyard, the Tong family's sisters previously lived in the back room, and the three Tong family brothers lived in the outer courtyard. Tong Ling'er was alone. A yard.
Originally, Tong Ling'er and Tong Shui Fairy, Tong Shui Lian, lived together in the back room, but the three of them always quarreled. The two girls from the Tong family were named gentle, but they both had straight tempers.
Tong Ling'er cried pitifully all day long, which made the two girls scolded by General Tong. Mrs. Tong was unhappy, but she couldn't throw Tong Ling'er out of the house, so she had to leave her alone. In a courtyard.
"Are you crying? Why are you crying? Who do you think you are? Can Mr. Shi really like you?"
"You have a bright future and you are an orphan, so why would you care about an orphan like you? Even if you die, no one will come to see you. But if you want to die, you should die far away from me, lest people outside will say anything about our Tong family. Kill you!"
Mrs. Tong was so angry that her head was spinning, and her whole body was about to smoke: "I advise you to be calmer. Don't think about Mr. Shi, and don't think about such bad tricks as seeking death and survival. If you do it again, change it." I will find a match for you tomorrow and get married!"
"Don't go to Jinning Duke's Mansion either. If you dare to go to Jinning Duke's Mansion, I will let you know how powerful I am."
Tong Ling'er's face was pale, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and her lips were so pale that there was no blood at all. She looked as pitiable as she wanted, but Mrs. Tong had seen her like this so many times that she didn't feel pity for her at all. She is hypocritical.
Tong Ling'er used this look to make the two sisters Tong Shuixian and Tong Shuilian suffer a lot. They were beaten and scolded by Tong Feng, saying that they could not tolerate others bullying others. They even had a bad reputation outside, saying that they could not tolerate others.
Fortunately, she had known the future husbands of the two girls since they were children, so there was no difficulty in talking about their marriage.
Tong Ling'er said aggrievedly: "Uncle, why do you have to bully me? If you can't tolerate me, you would have told her earlier and Ling'er would have left."
Mrs. Tong snorted coldly: "You put it lightly, why didn't you get out earlier? Don't dirty my land."
Tong Ling'er's eyes turned red again: "My uncle can't tolerate me so much. I originally thought that there are only two families left in the Tong family, and I am the only one left in my lineage. As a member of the Tong family, my uncle also You should be taking care of me, but it turns out that I was the one who got it wrong after all, and it’s not me.”
Mrs. Tong had goosebumps, and she was too lazy to talk to her, so she said: "Anyway, listen up, don't pester Mr. Shi anymore, and don't think about seeking death and survival, otherwise I will really let you die next time One death.”
After saying that, Mrs. Tong turned and left, not wanting to stay for even a moment. When she walked out of the courtyard door, she met her little girl, Tong Shuilian.
Tong Shuilian winked and then came closer: "Mom, how is the crybaby?"
Mrs. Tong snorted coldly: "Whatever you do with her, it has nothing to do with you. Don't get together with her, lest your father talks about you again."
