At this moment, everyone onlookers were talking about the Hou Mansion's unethical behavior and scolding the Hou Mansion girl for being immoral.
Guo Huaian was very satisfied with the effect. Since it embarrassed him, how could he be soft-hearted?
Jin Yue happened to see the flash of pride beneath his hypocrite face.
She was dressed in a red dress that was cold and charming. Her satin-like silk hair drooped down, revealing her neck as white as snow, and her raised eyes revealed an inaccessible surprise.
Guo Huaian was stunned for a moment when he looked over. He had never seen such a stunningly beautiful woman.
Then, Mrs. Hou rushed out with a broom, looking like a shrew scolding the street.
"What kind of junk thing dares to talk nonsense outside the gate of my palace?"
The old Marquis chased her but did not catch up with his wife. It was over, the reputation of the Hou Mansion was completely over.
Someone in the crowd booed: "You, Miss Jin Wei of the Marquis Mansion, have been exposed to all the sight of you. If someone wants to marry you, you won't get married. Do you want to raise your daughter and be an old girl at home for the rest of her life?"
"If I were Mr. Guo, I would not marry that unclean woman. If I dare to take Qiao after being exposed, who of their daughters will dare to marry her in the future?"
When the old Marquis heard this, he almost fainted.
If this matter is not handled well, it will damage the reputation of all the girls in the family.
For a moment, he hated Guo Huaian and Zhang. If they hadn't teamed up to plot against his eldest granddaughter, how could the trouble have reached this point.
Jin Wei, who had always been arrogant, was so angry as she listened to the words outside the door that her tears kept falling.
She rushed out and looked at everyone angrily, and said: "You all shut up, and everyone is responsible for the work. Even if I die, it will not affect the honor of the girl in the Hou family."
After saying this, Jin Wei's eyes became fierce and she bumped into the big stone lion outside the gate of the Hou Mansion.
There was a "bang", and the blood was on the spot.
Everything happened so suddenly, Jin Yue never imagined that Jin Wei, who was always against her in her previous life, could be so strong.
"Save people quickly, save people."
Everyone in the crowd was also shocked, this was too sudden.
Jin Yue was angry, she stepped forward and slapped Guo Huaian hard.
Guo Huai'an's eyes were sinister as he was beaten, and he said angrily: "People have said that the eldest lady of the Mighty Marquis Mansion is domineering, are they really right?"
Jin Yue said coldly: "Our Marquis Mansion has obviously sent people to tell Mr. Guo clearly, since you already know that you can't accept the marriage, why do you come to propose the marriage with great fanfare?"
"This young master has never received any private rumors from your Weiwu Hou Mansion. The marriage proposal was approved by the old Marquis of the Weiwu Hou Mansion in public. What's wrong with me?"
Then, Matchmaker Xu, who followed, also said: "I have never received any private messages from the Hou family. You, the Hou family, cannot bully others with your power."
Then, Guo Huai'an raised his hands to everyone and said, "Please bear witness to what happened today.
Guo came to propose marriage at the request of the old Marquis, and came with a big gift, but was turned away.
The Marquis's betrayal was really humiliating to me. The slave just said a few words of truth angrily.
I don't mean to offend, but today the second girl of the Hou family pretended to commit suicide, but it just showed her guilty conscience. If she didn't die, she was just acting. If you don't believe me, just wait and see. "
Murder is nothing more than this. Today, he is determined to ruin the reputation of the Marquis Mansion.
Mr. Hou roared angrily: "Here, hit me."
The servant behind him immediately stepped forward and punched and kicked Guo Huaian and his party.
Jin Yue closed her eyes, her grandfather was excited!
Sure enough, Jin Yue's guess came true. Guo Huaian vomited a large mouthful of blood and fell to the ground before being beaten twice.
The angry old Marquis finally came to his senses and something happened.
Within a day, the reputation of the Hou Mansion for bullying others spread throughout the city.
"Did you hear that Mr. Guo, who won the double prize in a row, was beaten until he vomited blood?"
"This girl from the Hou Mansion has had her whole body exposed. She still wants to climb a high tree and pretend to hit a stone lion to win sympathy, but she can really act."
"That idiot eldest lady is not a good person. Mr. Guo was bullied into this. She also beat people. She is so domineering and rude. She deserves to be divorced by the King of Jinyang."
…
In the main hall of the Hou Mansion, the old Hou Ye could not eat for two days because of this incident.
Jin Yue sat opposite Lao Zhen.
She thought to herself that they had deliberately sent her grandmother away today because they were afraid that something bad would happen to her grandmother.
"Shameless, simply shameless." Mr. Hou yelled angrily.
Jin Ci knelt down and said, "Shangfeng asked me to go home and think about my mistakes. I'm afraid my career as an official has come to an end. Only Yue Yatou can help my son for this matter."
Mrs. Zhen closed her eyes, and Jin Yue couldn't tell what she was thinking!
The old Marquis asked: "How do you say this?"
"This matter is ultimately related to the Guo family. As long as the Guo family comes forward to clarify that everything is a misunderstanding, the son will resume his official position and the reputation of our Marquis Mansion will be restored."
The old Marquis' eyes darkened, and he became angry when the Guo family was mentioned.
"go on."
Jin Ci has always felt that his father loves him very much, and he is the hope of the family. Only when he is well will the Hou Mansion be well.
So he said boldly: "As long as Yue Yatou agrees to marry Mr. Guo, then the matter will be over."
Mrs. Zhen looked compassionate again, as if she felt very sorry for Jin Yue.
She said: "How could they, the Guo family, do this? Even if they have to marry, they will marry Wei'er. Is it possible that we, the Marquis, can marry two girls? My poor Yue'er..."
Jin Yue didn't say anything, and just watched them quietly for a while.
The second uncle Jin Ci immediately blushed and said, "Well, it doesn't matter if I don't take this job. At worst, our whole family will go back to the countryside to farm. Even if we are mud-legged, we can't be bullied like this by them."
Ha, this is deliberately poking at the old man's weakness, and it's quite accurate!
Because her grandfather was born in a rural area, he has been looked down upon by the wealthy families since he came to Huajing.
Therefore, it is the old man's obsession to carry forward the Hou Mansion to a higher level. How could he be willing to return to the countryside at this juncture?
Lao Zhen and his second uncle Jin Ci definitely thought that the old man would sacrifice Jin Yue for the future of the Hou Mansion.
The old man roared angrily: "You bastard, why do I, the mighty Marquis of the Marquis Mansion, go back to the countryside?"
He was so angry that his whole body was shaking. Jin Yue quickly stepped forward to support him, really afraid that the old man would be angry.
The second uncle felt happy and pretended to be sad: "Father, do you mean to let Yue Yatou marry to settle this matter?"
"Fart." The old man exploded angrily: "That bastard Guo Huai'an pretends to be a human being, but he is actually nothing. How can my granddaughter go to his fire pit and suffer?"
Zhen's face looked a little ugly. This old man must be old and confused.
She winked at her son, and her second uncle Jin Ci sighed and said, "It won't work either this way or that way, but we are at the end of the road now."
Mr. Hou was so angry that he didn't know what to say. It took him a while before he compromised and said, "Okay, agree."
Mrs. Zhen and her second uncle Jin Ci were both ecstatic at the same time, but they still pretended to be really sad on their faces.
