"Nonsense, why has it come to this? We, the sisters-in-law, are all here. You are not allowed to mess around."

Xu Jing immediately lowered her face and warned her very seriously.

Xiaoli smiled miserably, "Maybe this is my life. I can't let the reputation of the Li family be ruined in my hands. The school and the weaving workshop are what we are today because of my husband's hard work. In order for us girls to study, we go from house to house." We went door to door to persuade the elders and ask for extra money from our own pockets. In order to prevent us from being sold by our parents for bride price, my husband went around looking for marriages for us. He said that we were getting married for the sake of brothers. In fact, we all knew that it was an excuse because he was afraid that our parents would find us a marriage. No, it will delay us all our lives. We have tried every possible means and exhausted all the connections to teach us and send us to the capital to find marriage partners, in order to tell our parents that raising a daughter well is better than a son."

She cried as she spoke, and two lines of tears flowed down her face.

"When the first few sisters got married, the family was not very wealthy, so the husband sacrificed his face to ask for family relatives and asked everyone to give a dowry to the girl. They married in glory. Over the years, the husband has worked hard and his hair has turned gray. She is much older than her peers. My mother is several years older than my husband, but she looks younger than her."

"In the past, I couldn't really understand the saying that everyone in the village will be prosperous and everyone will suffer. I thought that people with the same surname should unite as one. Now I understand that because of me, all the girls in the village are stigmatized. I can't Accept it, I would rather die to prove my innocence and ask my sisters-in-law to help me."

As a peasant girl, she understands the power of rumors to kill people better than noble girls like Xu Jing. Such things are not uncommon in all parts of the country.

If any unscrupulous man likes a girl, he will touch her, and then spread rumors that he slept with me.

This sentence is enough to destroy an innocent girl. This is why Xiu Niang is so strict and rigid in her management of girls, and cannot give bad guys the slightest chance to harm her children.

"You are really a kid trained by my sister. You look exactly like you."

Before the person arrives, the voice arrives first.

Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Yi came over together. It was a matter of honor for the girl, and Zhou Yi paid special attention to it. They came over at dawn, and it happened to be that he had a rest today.

"Junior, Xiaoli, give it to Mr. Zhou. Madam Zhou, please say hello. It's my fault, junior, that I have made you worry and tired."

Although Xiaoli was sad and desperate, she was not rude and instead greeted her respectfully.

After taking a look, Zhou Yi nodded slightly. He had a nice standard of salute and a grand manner. He heard what he just said. His sister taught him well and taught a group of grateful and sensible girls.

"Good boy, it's not that serious. Don't just use death to prove your innocence. If you don't imitate your husband, just imitate her and commit suicide."

Mrs. Zhou squeezed Xiu Niang without any politeness.

"Madam, once the rumor spreads, I will be the sinner!"

Xiaoli cried uncontrollably.

"Don't be afraid, there is still me, good boy, don't cry, be strong. Women have to face a lot of difficulties in this life. If you can't handle this, then you are sorry for your husband's teachings."

"If no one from the Zhang family comes to apologize today, I will take action. Don't worry."

Zhou Yi made a guarantee.

"Would this affect your official reputation? It's Xiaoli's fault."

"Oh! You are just like my sister-in-law."

When Mrs. Zhou heard this, she rolled her eyes angrily. Why did this child think so much?

Xiaoya pulled her to sit down, "Don't panic, aunt is right, you can't get through this difficulty. There will be more difficult things in the future, so what will you do? You will die many times."

"I was wrong. I was afraid of damaging the family's reputation."

The young Xiaoli sat there with stiff hands and feet, weeping silently. She came back to the capital for the first time and had not left the house a few times. She only attended one banquet when something happened. The whole family was busy with her. She was very frightened and guilty.

"Don't be afraid, we are a family and we will find solutions together when we have difficulties."

Xiaoli's parents, brother and sister-in-law also came over. They were shocked when they learned about the situation in the morning and quickly asked for leave to come and see their daughter.

"Daughter, my mother is here, don't be afraid."

Xiaoli's mother came in and comforted her daughter first.

"Mom, I really don't know him..."

Xiaoli cried loudly, feeling very wronged. "Don't be afraid, mother is here."

"You go back to the house first. I'll discuss it with your brother and sister-in-law. Don't worry about your parents being here. At worst, we can go back to the village to live or something. If the sky falls, your father and I will still be here. It won't be your turn to apologize. Don’t be afraid.”

"Don't be afraid, dad is here."

Xiaoli shed tears and went back with her sisters to let the elders discuss the matter.

"This child was so unjustly accused. He was so frightened when someone grabbed him at the door of his house. The question now is whether there will be rumors. Xiaoli's concerns are right."

Xiaoya also talked about the objective situation.

"You can't stop your mouth by blocking it. It's better to open it up than to block it. Let's ask for an explanation openly."

Zhou Yi thought for a while before speaking.

"How's that?"

"Aren't my parents here? They went to Zhang's house to make trouble, cry, explain the situation to the neighbors, and ask his family to give an explanation."

"Everything in this world must be about right and wrong, fairness and justice. Whatever he says is black, it is black. It is too easy to marry a daughter of the Li family using this method."

Zhou Yi is also a ruthless person, otherwise he would not have climbed into the cabinet at such a young age.

"Let's go, old brother, I'll go with you, brother Rui and brother Jing, let's go and get justice for the girl."

"Okay, just tell her and we will do it. I am just a daughter. I hope she is safe and happy. I have no other requirements. As long as my daughter is safe, I can do whatever you want."

Xiaoli's father's eyes were red.

"Dad, I'm going with my wife."

"Mom, we are responsible for crying and speaking out for justice, and leave the rest to them. You just cry, I will do it for you."

This is Sister-in-law Xiaoli.

Xiaoli is gentle and gentle, and has a good relationship with her sister-in-law. All the money she earned in the first few years was used to buy Zhuangzi for her brother and sister-in-law. Her sister-in-law thinks of her well and will not hesitate to come forward.

"Okay, I'm stupid, do you think I'm right?"

Xiaoli Niang is an honest person, down-to-earth and hard-working, but clumsy.

"Look at me, just cry. My sister must get justice. Why did you bully my girl? You must give me an explanation."

The sister-in-law was also furious.

Zhou Yi explained to them how to teach his sister-in-law how to speak, not to say anything wrong, and to pin the blame on the Zhang family so hard that they could not stand up.

My sister-in-law is smart, can read and calculate accounts, and is now the housekeeper. She is quick-tongued and understands things immediately.

"I understand……"

He also specially taught Zhou Yi and his wife how to talk, and received satisfied nods from everyone.

By the time he was talking, it was getting bright and it was time to have breakfast, but no one came, and the faces of Zhou Yi and his wife turned cold.

"Put the food on the table. Let's go and settle the debt after we have enough to eat and drink."

Mrs. Zhou sat down to make arrangements.

"Hurry up and set the food."

These children were promoted and taught by Zhou Yi in the officialdom. He respected them and his wife very much. His elders spoke and the younger ones only listened to them.
