Chapter 65

Although the ancient rules are relatively strict, it also depends on what kind of family they are.

Like the Li family, they are at most a rich family in the countryside, and they can't be called a big family at all.There is no such rule as not to leave the gate, and Meiniang and her fiancé-in-law have been engaged since childhood, so it is normal to have met a few times before.

Because of this, it is common for two people who are already engaged to have a good impression of each other.

It's just that, after Meiniang knows the truth, I'm afraid it will be even more painful, right?

After thinking about it for a while, Mo Qianrui decided to take Lingniang to Li's house first.However, she never expected that Meiniang had already discovered the clue at this time.

Because the incident happened so suddenly yesterday, and Meiniang was seriously injured, basically she has been in a coma intermittently.Occasionally, she woke up for a while, and was tortured by severe pain, so she didn't have the slightest energy to pay attention to other things.

But after sleeping for a whole night, Meiniang regained her energy for a while, but immediately noticed a problem.

Liniang, her twin sister, who had been inseparable from her childhood, was gone.

Meiniang quickly recalled what happened yesterday.

Yesterday, old Zhang's family rushed into her boudoir without any warning.At that time, there were many people in the room, her mother, two younger sisters, and several aunts and sister-in-laws who were well-off.

Everything that happened after that was like a nightmare.

She no longer wants to recall the specific details, but she still remembers the heart-piercing pain, the screams of others, and the last scene where A Niang desperately protected him.

"Father! Where's my mother? And Liniang and Lingniang? What happened to them? What happened?"

Meiniang remembered that she lost consciousness not long afterward, and the last thing she saw before she fainted was her own mother who threw herself in front of her...

The uncle of the Li family who had been guarding Meiniang's bed hurriedly spoke to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, Meiniang, it's all right, everyone is all right."

all right?
Hearing this, Meiniang was indeed relieved at first, but then she burst into tears again: "Why don't they come to see me when they have nothing to do? Father, don't lie to me! Tell me quickly, what's wrong with them ? Say it quickly!"

Seeing that Meiniang's mood was very wrong, the uncle of the Li family hurriedly shouted outside: "Go and help her mother here! By the way, there is also the Mo family, call Lingniang!"

In fact, at this moment, Mo Qianrui was holding Ling Niang's hand and was entering the courtyard of the Li family when he heard Uncle Li's voice coming from the hall of the Li family, so he rushed inside in three steps at a time.

"Uncle Li, I have brought Lingniang back." Mo Qianrui was startled after only saying these words.Hearing it from others and seeing it yourself are completely different things.In Mo Qianrui's heart, Meiniang will always be bright and charming. Maybe she is not as smiling as Liniang, but she is always full of her youthful atmosphere.

However, now that Meiniang is lying on the bed, she can even be described as dying.After all, her face was bloodless, and the cotton cloth on her head was wrapped around her left eye all the way to her left eye.

Seeing Mo Qianrui leading Ling Niang in, Uncle Li didn't care about explaining, so he hugged Ling Niang to Meiniang's bedside: "Look, Meiniang, Ling Niang is fine, don't worry."

And at this moment, several relatives of the Li family who were helping outside also helped the aunt of the Li family who was resting next door.

There were indeed several people who were injured in the incident yesterday, but the only ones who were seriously injured were Meiniang and Aunt Li.

Meiniang is because from the very beginning, the old Zhang's family went straight to her.But Aunt Li's was because after the initial daze, she rushed forward to protect Meiniang, so her limbs and back were seriously injured, especially her right leg, the bones were all broken.

But the others were fine, like Ling Niang, who was also there at the time, but was just knocked to the ground by the panicked crowd, with bruises on her elbows and knees.The rest of the people who came to help were mostly injured from bumps, or they were simply overly frightened.

"A Niang, Ling Niang... what about Li Niang? Where is she? What happened to her?"

After seeing Aunt Li's family and Ling Niang arrive successively, Meiniang is not really at ease.

In fact, she didn't know what the reason was, it seemed that from the moment she opened her eyes in the morning and didn't see Liniang, her heart was empty.

Something must have happened.

"Liniang...she'll be back in two days." It was still Uncle Li who answered, because Aunt Li was already crying so hard.

Meiniang's face was pale, her lips were trembling, she wanted to speak, but she seemed to have no strength left.

Mo Qianrui saw that something was obviously wrong, don't Meiniang think that Li Niang is dead?
Immediately couldn't help but said: "Sister Mei Niang, Liniang is fine, she was not injured."

At this moment, the uncle of the Li family also knew that Meiniang had misunderstood his unclear speech, so he quickly explained along with him.But at this moment, Meiniang didn't say anything and didn't want to listen, she just kept crying.

Mo Qianrui wanted to persuade Meiniang not to cry, after all, she hurt her eyes, but for a while, she didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only worry beside her.

The uncles and aunts of the Li family on the side also tried their best to appease Meiniang, but their actions had no effect except to make Meiniang more panic.

"Eldest sister, didn't second sister go to the latrine? She wasn't injured, and I even fell down."

Suddenly, Ling Niang said such a sentence unexpectedly, which instantly made Meiniang stop crying.

"That's right, Li Niang was greedy, drank three bowls of mung bean soup in one go, and then started to run to the latrine." Meiniang was in a daze, as if immersed in memories, "She is so timid, she heard the words from outside. It’s strange if you don’t get dizzy from the movement, you should be fine, right?”

The uncle and aunt of the Li family finally breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately gasped again.

"Father, mother, why didn't Li Niang sleep with me when she was fine? Where did she go?"

There was silence in the room, Mo Qianrui was afraid Ling Niang would talk nonsense, and even quietly covered Ling Niang's mouth.

However, Uncle Li opened his mouth after sighing heavily.

"Meiniang, you have been a smart and sensible child since you were a child. Although Li Niang was only born a moment later than you, she can't compare to you no matter what."

A wave of panic spread from the bottom of her heart, and Meiniang stared at Uncle Li's mouth with her exposed eye.

Seeing the appearance of his beloved eldest daughter, Uncle Li felt a sharp pain in his heart, but he couldn't help but say those words: "Miniang, if you want to blame, you can blame daddy, it's daddy who didn't run fast enough. , I failed to save you earlier. But our family really can’t afford to offend the Qiao family, the old man of the Qiao family is ill, and the marriage cannot be postponed."

It turned out that this was the reason why Meiniang's marriage was brought forward.

"My poor daughter! Why is your life so hard? Why is it you? Why? I would rather lose my life than make you safe..." Aunt Li threw herself down On Meiniang's body, she burst into tears.

"Father, tell me, Li Niang... did she do it voluntarily?" Meiniang didn't seem to hear Aunt Li's cries, she still looked straight at Uncle Li, "She really agreed to act on my behalf?" Married?"

In fact, Meiniang had already guessed the answer from the moment she blurted it out.

Yi Liniang's personality doesn't understand why the Li family can't afford to offend the Qiao family. If she really doesn't want to, even if her father forces her into the sedan chair, she will cry and make a fuss, and refuse to leave.

Now that Liniang is not here, it means that she agrees.

"Liniang...she doesn't understand." However, the uncle of the Li family didn't directly say whether Liniang agreed or disagreed.

"Don't understand?" Meiniang smiled very sadly, "Even if Li Niang is so innocent, she still doesn't know what it means to wear a wedding dress on a sedan chair? Ling Niang knows it!"

The sisters of the Li family, although Meiniang is smarter and more stable, it doesn't mean that Li Niang is a fool.After all, he is already fifteen, and no matter how unsophisticated he is, he should know what it means to put on a wedding dress and a sedan chair.Besides, during the period when Meiniang was waiting to get married, the Li family was very busy with it. As Meiniang said, she was as young as a Lingniang and knew a lot of things.

"Meiniang, don't blame Liniang, she really doesn't understand. I told her that the Qiao family can't wait, let her marry you on your behalf, and come back on the day you return."

"In exchange?" Meiniang's eyes widened in surprise, but the wound was involved, and her face twisted in pain.

"Li Niang is not sensible, Mei Niang, you should know what it means?"

Meiniang cried out in pain again and again, and didn't bother to reply for a while.

The uncle of the Li family said directly: "Brother Qiao is very familiar with you and Liniang, but the elders of the Qiao family have only met you a few times. I thought, the Qiao family would not find out that Li Niang was married, but Qiao Geer will definitely find out!"

What could be more joyful than when someone in despair suddenly grabs a life-saving rope?Meiniang knew that she still had a chance.

"Mei Niang, Dad didn't want to tell you about this. After all, it's not a perfect solution. I told Liniang and asked her to tell Brother Qiao what happened yesterday in private. With you, he will definitely not touch Liniang. When the day comes back home, father will exchange you with Liniang, and will only say to the outside world that you had an accident on the way back to your mother's house."

"Really? Li Niang will exchange it with me?"

"What I'm talking about is that Brother Qiao has you in his heart! If he doesn't have you in his heart, then...you two sisters have changed their identities since then. Don't worry, Father will prepare a heavier dowry for you than before, Tell you about a better school!"

"Father, Brother Qiao has me in his heart!"

The uncle of the Li family forced a smile, but it looked more like a wry smile: "Mei Niang, take good care of your wounds, I told Li Niang that she is a good child. As for Brother Qiao, if he really betrays you, Then let us see his nature clearly in advance..."

"He will definitely not let me down! Daddy, don't worry, I believe in him!"
