Wang Ximeng grabbed Xie Ronglan's hand and said angrily: "That bracelet is fake! The noble man was so angry that he almost killed me."
Wang Ximeng couldn't say that her mess was due to bad luck, and she said this deliberately to put pressure on Xie Ronglan.
At least, Xie Ronglan can't let Xie Ronglan worry about the one hundred taels of silver anymore.
Xie Ronglan didn't have much reaction when she heard that the bracelet was fake, but when she heard that the noble man might actually kill people, she suddenly lost her composure.
"Who are you talking about? Why do you dare to disregard your life?"
Wang Ximeng couldn't answer this. He just snorted angrily and began to think about how to get the bracelet.
Even what Xie Ronglan stole was fake, and she was even less accessible to outsiders.
But the more she couldn't get it, the more itchy her heart became.
She even inquired about some of Xie Rongzhao's old stories from the side, and became more and more certain that Xie Rongzhao was able to be where he is today mainly because of that bracelet.
Such a good thing should originally belong to her.
Wang Ximeng didn't know much about the contents of the book, but she vaguely remembered that the Xie family seemed to be in a miserable state later on, dying and becoming disabled, and the Xie family didn't seem to have any high-ranking officials.
But now everything is obviously different, and she can no longer let the bracelet stay on Xie Rongzhao.
She needs such a powerful golden finger, otherwise, she will have to sell snacks for the rest of her life, get up early every day, work hard at night, and be exhausted to death!
Before Wang Ximeng found a chance to get the bracelet, Wang Dalang found her first and took her back.
In the past few days since Wang Ximeng left home, all kinds of unpleasant things have been spread in the village.
Some people said that she eloped with the customers of the restaurant; some said that she went to the county to buy things, and then was taken away by a wealthy family; others said that she couldn't think of anything and committed suicide by jumping into the river...
In short, all kinds of fictitious things are popping up.
The Wang family couldn't sit idly by and ignore it. After all, they had already agreed to get married and couldn't ruin their reputation.
Wang Dalang also spent a lot of effort to find the person.
Wang Xi dreamed that she would be the first lady in the future, so she had to put off stealing the bracelet for the time being and focus on the present first.
Wang Ximeng was thinking about how to excuse herself along the way. She had to clear her stigma. Otherwise, what if Zhao Jiajun didn't want her anymore?
Sure enough, when she returned to the village, she saw many women sitting under the trees, pointing at her.
This feeling is all too familiar.
It's not like I haven't experienced it before.
Wang Ximeng was not in a hurry, she had already thought of her words, and even had an extra book in her arms.
"Brother, go to Zhao's house first."
Wang Dalang was dissatisfied: "You still have the intention to go to the Zhao family now? Aren't you afraid that the Zhao family will take the opportunity to cancel the engagement?"
Wang Ximeng smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry, I asked you to go to the Zhao family first to ensure that the Zhao family will not break off the engagement with me."
Wang Dalang was dubious, but he still listened to her and went to Zhao's house first.
Wang Dalang was driving a donkey cart, and the pace was not fast. By the time they arrived at Zhao's house, the news that Wang Ximeng had been brought back by Wang Dalang had spread throughout the village.
Zhao Jiajun's parents also heard about it. They were both working in the fields. They ran back immediately, thinking that they must take this opportunity to call off the marriage. How dare a wild girl from the countryside dare to be outside? We stayed overnight, who knows who we slept with?
As a result, Zhao Jiajun's parents rushed back and saw that their son and Wang Ximeng were talking and laughing, and they didn't look angry at all.
How did this happen?
Mother Zhao was still thinking about going up and tearing it apart, but she turned around and noticed the villagers watching behind her, and she didn't know whether to make a big fuss or not.
After all, my son is going to be a scholar.
Don't ruin your reputation.
Zhao Jiajun held the book in his hand and looked excited. Then he bowed to Wang Ximengzuo and said, "Thank you, Miss Wang."
Wang Ximeng turned to the side and said with a shy look: "Brother Jiajun, please don't say that. We are already engaged. I happened to have the opportunity to get to know the Xie family, so naturally I thought I could help you."
Thank you family?
Everyone's ears perked up.
Does this girl know the Xie family?
Which Xie family?
The most famous Xie family in Gaoyang County?
Wang Dalang thought that he had indeed picked up his sister from the Xie family's mansion, and said with a proud face: "We are just one Xie family in Gaoyang County, and my sister has always believed that she was in the Xie family's mansion a few days ago. I won the Xie family who was ranked second in the Xie family."
Everyone showed an expression of amazement, some even didn't believe it.
"Girl Wang, did you really go to the Xie family? No, the Xie family is far away from us. How did you get there? How did you know the Xie family?"
Someone asked, and others naturally listened with open ears. After all, it was the Xie family, who wouldn't want to curry favor?
Wang Ximeng said openly: "Actually, it's nothing. The eldest daughter of the Xie family married in the county last year. I met Miss Xie when my eldest brother and I went to purchase goods, and I helped her a little favor by accident. This time, it was also because of me. I injured my leg when I fell, and the Xie family happened to see me, so they took me back to Xie’s Village to recuperate for a few days.”
Zhao Jiajun then thought that when he just met the person, she seemed to be walking a little slowly, as if she had injured her left leg.
"Are you injured? Is it okay? Do you still need to continue taking medicine?"
Wang Ximeng saw the concern on his face, and her heart felt as sweet as honey.
"It's okay, Brother Jiajun. It's much better now. It's just scratched by a branch. Miss Xie happened to be going to Xiejiazhuang, so she took me with her. It was also at Xie's house that I was lucky enough to meet Miss Xie San, so Shamelessly, I begged for a book.”
The third lady of the Xie family?
At this time, someone exclaimed: "Miss Xie San is Mr. Xie's only daughter!"
"Ah? Is she the daughter who won the second place in the rankings?"
"Yes, it seems to be the third young lady. I never thought that Girl Wang would be so lucky."
"Isn't that right? To be able to meet a serious official daughter, Wang Yatou is really lucky."
Ordinary people, and they are still farmers who make a living in the countryside, will never have the opportunity to get to know any official in their life. The biggest official I have ever seen is probably the village chief.
Now I heard Wang Ximeng say that she also met Miss Xie San, and even got a book from Xie's family to bring back. She is simply the envy of everyone!
"Brother Jiajun, I sent this book over and went back first. I was also worried about losing this book along the way. After all, the third lady brought it back from the capital specifically. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to keep it well. .Now that it is in your hands, I can feel relieved."
Zhao Jiajun took a particularly cherished look at the book in his hand and thanked him again: "Thank you. Otherwise, I would not have the chance to read such a good article."
