Chapter 305 The Yan family is a relative of the prefect Sun family!
Shen Ruyi had an idea in her mind. It seemed that the Yan family was planning to marry the girl from the Zhang family home to carry on the family line for their stupid son!
It was obvious that the Yan family was bullying, but the Zhang family was unwilling to see their daughter marry and become a widow, and give birth to a fool as a child, but they could not return the betrothal gift, which led to this situation. The Zhang family wanted to cancel the Yan family's marriage arrangement because they had robbed their family of their fortune and wanted to have a live-in son-in-law!
When Shen Ruyi was wondering in her heart, she suddenly saw a group of people coming into the street, carrying a sedan chair. It was obvious that the Yan family was coming to get married!
After the bridal sedan arrived at the door of Zhang's house, the yard became chaotic. Shen Ruyi, a bystander, quickly blended into the crowd, squeezed behind the old lady, and then stuck her head inside. She saw her daughter Zhaocai wearing a bright red wedding dress, supporting the Zhang family with a righteous look!
Zhaocai, dressed as a groom, stunned Shen Ruyi. Oh my! My Zhaocai is quite handsome. How come I never noticed it?
Shen Ruyi knew that she couldn't say this to her cousin. If she did, her cousin would probably be furious and would secretly deal with Zhaocai.
Zhaocai said indignantly, "You are from the Yan family, right? Now I tell you, the marriage between the Zhang family and your family is off!
Your son from the Yan family died on the battlefield, and the court will provide compensation to his family. Why do you want to harm the girl from the Zhang family?"
The leading man was the Yan family’s steward. He had a red silk tied around his waist and looked at Zhaocai with disdain and said, “Where did this fool come from? My master said that the second young master died on the battlefield for his country, so the second young master’s fiancée must be carried home to guard my second young master!”
Zhaocai was dissatisfied: "Bah! Since your second son died for his country, the court will provide him with compensation. He will be treated like a successful minister by the whole Qin Dynasty. How can you let the daughter of an ordinary family ruin her life for him!"
Shen Ruyi couldn't help but shout: "Well said! You are right about attracting wealth!"
After Shen Ruyi finished speaking, she tried hard to squeeze in. Everyone saw that she was a young lady, not very pretty with a dark face. People didn't know that this was the way Shen Ruyi dressed herself up specially to avoid attracting attention!
When Zhaocai saw that it was his own little county lady, he was frightened and quickly moved over and looked around nervously, then stretched out his hands to protect Shen Ruyi behind him.
"Master, why are you here? Did you come here on your own? Did Master Jin go back to report the news? Didn't I tell him that I could get away?"
Shen Ruyi was so angry that she laughed. Zhaocai was worthy of being chosen by her father. He was indeed a loyal minister and a capable general!
"You can't get away! If you can get away, why don't you wear this wedding dress and stay here to support the Zhang family?"
Zhaocai grinned but couldn't refute. He really couldn't bear it seeing that the Zhang family was full of old, weak and disabled people, and there was no strong man to support the family, so he put on his wedding clothes and came here to give justice to their family.
Shen Ruyi sighed, pushed Zhaocai aside, stepped forward, looked at the steward and said: "I don't want to embarrass you on this matter, go home and find the head of the Yan family, and the county magistrate will come over later to administer justice.
It is true that the Zhang family accepted your betrothal gift, but your second son has died on the battlefield. He was loyal to his country, and the Qin court will provide compensation to his family.
The laws of the Qin Dynasty are strict and will never allow a dead person to marry a living person."
The manager was stunned by what this ordinary-looking young lady said. He could see that this young lady had an extraordinary aura and was probably not an ordinary person!
But when he thought of his family's background, he straightened his back again: "Can the county magistrate still control the relatives of the prefect?
Let me tell you the truth, my master is the prefect's brother-in-law, and he has always been law-abiding. Our second son has been both civil and military since he was young, but he joined the army and died on the battlefield. Our master was really upset and decided to marry the second son's fiancée to take care of him!
Our master also said that if the girl from the Zhang family marries into our family, we will give her a generous gift. She only needs to stay with our second son for three years. If the girl from the Zhang family doesn’t want to stay with us anymore, we can let her go back…”
Shen Ruyi couldn't help but spit, "Pooh! Are you kidding a fool? A beautiful young girl has come to the Yan family, and the Yan family has a big fool son. Don't the Yan family want to give the beautiful girl to the fool to continue the family line?
What a despicable and filthy Yan family!"
boom!
This matter was originally something that could only be understood but not expressed in words, but it was exposed nakedly by Shen Ruyi all of a sudden, and the surrounding neighbors were instantly in an uproar...
Ordinary people really didn't dare to offend the Yan family. They only dared to discuss the matter behind their backs and really didn't dare to say it to their faces. But Shen Ruyi, the young and foolish man, exposed the matter in public, so the manager and subordinates of the Yan family were all panicked.
The lady who had muttered this matter to Shen Ruyi rushed out of the crowd and ran home. She didn't dare to stay here any longer. If the young lady revealed that it was she who said it, she would be finished!
Shen Ruyi caught a glimpse of the chubby back of the old lady, who was running faster than a rabbit, and couldn't help but laugh...
The manager of the Yan family now couldn't stand up straight. He looked at the people around him talking in panic, as well as the old people and women of the Zhang family glaring at each other.
He said uncomfortably, "Well...well, what nonsense are you talking about? Okay, you just wait here. I'll go home and tell the master about the situation. We can't miss the auspicious time..."
The steward turned around and ran away, and the people around started talking about it. Zhaocai couldn't help but admire his master.
"Master, this matter is exactly as you said. The patriarch of the Zhang family is already eighty years old. He knelt down in front of me and cried about these things. I am a seven-foot-tall man, how can I just ignore it!"
Shen Ruyi sighed: "Alright! You have encountered this matter of attracting wealth, which can be regarded as an opportunity for the Zhang family.
So what? Take off this wedding dress for me. It’s too eye-catching. If Xiaobi finds out, you’ll be dead…”
Zhaocai's face turned red all of a sudden, and he grinned: "Yes, Master! You have to keep it a secret for me..."
When he turned around, he saw a yard full of old men and women, all of them staring at him and Shen Ruyi in a daze.
Zhaocai tried hard to explain, "This is my master. My master will make the decision for your girl. Don't worry, if our master can't make the decision for you, then she will let Zhaocai take a knife and fight to the death with the Yan family. Don't worry!"
The Zhang family's patriarch, along with all the old men and women in the yard, knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "Female Bodhisattva! Please save the girl from the Zhang family..."
Shen Ruyi looked back and sighed: "Everyone, get up, this incident is indeed a surprise to us. My cousin has gone to the county government to find the county magistrate.
We will never let a grown-up girl from your family marry into the Yan family and become a widow, carrying on the family line for a fool..."
Suddenly, the sound of soldiers and officers was heard on the street. It seemed that people from the county government had arrived!
Captain Zhang from the county government came in a hurry: "Get out of the way...get out of the way! Old clan leader...the county magistrate is here!"
Shen Ruyi knew that Qin Beiyu had brought the county magistrate with him. The county magistrate's hat fell off as he ran after Qin Beiyu. The old man followed, panting, holding the hat.
Qin Beiyu walked around the alley, not caring whether the county magistrate could catch up with him or not. He ran to the gate of Zhang's courtyard and saw Shen Ruyi standing there. The man rushed over with a nervous expression and hugged Shen Ruyi!
"Ruyi, are you okay? Didn't I tell you to wait in the alley? How did you get here?"
Everyone couldn't help but twitch their lips. This man was even better than that lucky guy, but he was so nervous about this ugly little woman!
Noticing the man's body trembling, she imagined the man's fear and worry for not finding her in the alley, and she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart.
"Cousin, I'm fine. I just saw the Yan family coming to get married, and I was a little nervous about Zhaocai... Well, no! I was worried that Zhaocai would hurt innocent people..."
Qin Beiyu glared at Zhaocai with a bad look on his face, and said unhappily, "What is there for a grown man like Zhaocai to be nervous about?
Ruyi, you don’t have to worry about them anymore…”
Attracting wealth...
Why is the prince looking at me with such a cold look? What's going on?
