Confucius businesswoman: proud of the world

Chapter 5
Mrs. Liu values ​​the Liu family's reputation more than her life, so she doesn't believe that she can tolerate the Kong family's girl belittling the Liu family like this.

Hearing Mrs. Liu Wu's words, Mrs. Liu really changed her face, and her hand holding the marriage certificate changed shape: "Miss Kong family said, our Liu family is not worthy of her, so we are retiring?"

Mrs. Liu Wu said in a repeated voice: "That's exactly what I said!"

Mrs. Liu suddenly stood up from her chair, staring at the slap marks on Mrs. Liu Wu's face on the ground, Mrs. Liu Wu also quickly shed two tears. The most important thing now is to transfer all the grievances of Mrs. Liu to the hole. Miss Jia, hmph, that little girl dared to openly fight against the Liu family, so she wanted Mrs. Liu to deal with her herself!
Until Yu'er, the maid beside her, gently held Mrs. Liu's arm, Yu'er said, "Madam, I'm afraid there may be fraud."

Only then did Mrs. Liu calm down slowly.After calming down, her thoughts naturally became much deeper. Before that, Miss Kong clearly did not express any intention of refusing the marriage. On the contrary, Miss Kong herself should be willing to this marriage.

Now, even though it has been nearly a year, it doesn't make sense. At the juncture of the wedding next month, a request for divorce is suddenly made.No matter how you look at it, it's too weird, too weird.

Seeing Mrs. Liu Wu shivering, Mrs. Liu actually didn't think that it was Mrs. Liu Wu who really did something. After all, Mrs. Liu Wu is not that capable. She is at most arrogant towards Miss Kong One point, but hasn't the Liu family always treated the Kong family like this?

Even if you want to express your dissatisfaction, it is time to express it.

Mrs. Liu couldn't figure out the joint, so she could only give Mrs. Liu a cold look: "Before the master comes back, you should go back to the yard and think about it!"

Mrs. Liu Wu trembled for a moment, but still acquiesced to the punishment.It's much better to think about the mistakes than to blame all the crimes of retiring the engagement on her.

But Mrs. Liu's irritability didn't disappear, she told her servants: "Prepare the sedan chair, I'm going to the backyard to meet the old lady."

It would be fine if this matter was just an ordinary Miss Kong's joke, but Liu Wu, that useless man, obediently took back the marriage certificate, and now he returned the marriage certificate. According to the law of etiquette, the engagement is really void!
So it is absolutely impossible to say that Mrs. Liu is not panicking.

The old lady of the Liu family lives in the quietest backyard, which is definitely considered a big yard in Xianyang City.Madam Liu usually seldom set foot here. After all, if she asks the old lady about everything, where should she put her majesty as the head of the house?

But things are obviously different this time.

Mrs. Liu stopped the sedan chair at the gate of the courtyard, looked back at Yu'er who had been following behind her, and said coldly: "You must not reveal a word about this matter, you understand."

Yu'er said softly, "Madam, don't worry."

Mrs. Liu looked at Yu'er again before entering the courtyard.

……

After entering the courtyard, Mrs. Liu couldn't calm down any longer. She almost panicked and walked into the main hall where Mrs. Liu was. Old Mrs. Liu was sitting in the main hall, beside a nanny who had been with her for more than ten years.

"Old Madam." Madam Liu called out with a pale face.

Mrs. Liu glanced at Nanny, and Nanny immediately retreated outside the curtain in silence.

Mrs. Liu immediately walked up to Mrs. Liu, took out the marriage letter from her sleeve, and handed it tremblingly: "Old lady, look at this."

Mrs. Liu is eighty years old, but her eyes still have a clear cold light.She glanced at the marriage letter and narrowed her eyes.

Mrs. Liu said the matter briefly, but Mrs. Liu didn't make a sound.

After a while, Mrs. Liu said: "So since the Kong family took away the marriage certificate, they never thought of writing Miss Kong's birthday on it."

A marriage certificate without a date of birth is, of course, waste paper.

Mrs. Liu was so angry when she thought of it, she never expected this trick. Isn't the Kong family's way of doing it like a liar?It seems that you really can't get involved with the merchants, and you really have nothing to do to make a fuss.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, Mrs. Liu looked at her and said, "You must feel that the Kong family's move is like a fraudulent marriage."

Mrs. Liu's eyes lit up, yes, as expected of the old lady, she spoke right into her heart.Isn't the Kong family just a fraudulent marriage?If you don't agree, it's fine if you don't accept the marriage certificate. How can you suddenly return the marriage certificate after a year like this?

But Mrs. Liu hadn't had time to say her excited words, and Mrs. Liu's next words were like pouring cold water on her.Mrs. Liu said: "It's not her Kong family who cheated on the marriage, it's our Liu family's fault."

Mrs. Liu petrified on the spot, she started to panic when she saw Mrs. Liu, what's wrong?Why is it that their Liu family is at a loss?What's wrong with the Liu family?
She condescends to marry such a daughter from the merchant family, but at the end of the day, she is put together by that lowly merchant daughter. No matter how they count, the Liu family is nothing to do with being wronged!
Although Mrs. Liu has always respected Mrs. Liu, but now, it does not prevent her from feeling that Mrs. Liu is not clear-headed, so she said such a thing.

Mrs. Liu patiently expressed her thoughts: "Old madam, even if the daughter of the Kong family returned the marriage certificate now, the people in Xianyang City know that her Kong family and our Liu family have long been married. If she divorces, no matter how stubborn she is, Kong Linglong will be drowned in the spittle of tens of thousands of people in Xianyang City. As a woman, her reputation will be ruined if word spreads."

Mrs. Liu not only told Mrs. Liu, she also analyzed these interests for herself on the way here.No matter what direction you look at, as long as she, Kong Linglong, really dares to eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall, she is afraid that she will lose face in Xianyang City in the future, oh no, she will have a foothold in this world!

Mrs. Liu became more and more enthusiastic as she spoke: "One woman does not marry twice. Kong Linglong thinks that now that she is the head of the Kong family, she can do whatever she wants? Wrong, because she has become the head of the Kong family, if she is a little careless, she will It is a burden to the entire Kong family, and the Kong family has never had a female head. I am afraid that there will be countless relatives in the Kong family who want to pull her down. Only by relying on our Liu family can she maintain her position as the head of the Kong family. !"

Mrs. Liu took a slow look at the confident eldest daughter-in-law, and said, "Since you are so sure that the daughter of the Kong family cannot leave our Liu family, then tell me, why should she return this marriage certificate?"

One sentence drove Mrs. Liu into the abyss, her whole body was filled with coldness, indeed, no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't understand it, it was clear that retiring the engagement would not bring any benefit to Kong Linglong, how dare she?
Mrs. Liu looked at Mrs. Liu with a pale face again, "May I ask you to advise me."

Mrs. Liu looked at the marriage letter in her hand and sighed: "Let me ask you, who was the first to announce this marriage?"

Mrs. Liu said in a daze, "It's the master."

Mrs. Liu looked at her face: "Last year, when the old man came back from the capital, he proposed to marry the Kong family. After the old man wrote the marriage letter, he personally sent it to the Kong family. But the old man who was in charge of the Kong family didn't get married on the spot." The marriage was agreed. It was only later that the old man let go when he heard that Miss Kong begged Mr. Kong, and the second time when the old man came to the door, Mr. Kong accepted the marriage letter. After that, after the old man returned to Beijing, the boss also told the whole Xianyang Announced the matter of marrying the daughter of the Kong family in the coming year."

Mrs. Liu is not unfamiliar with these things at all, and she also knows that Mrs. Liu is not just talking about these things.

Mrs. Liu caressed the marriage letter with rough fingers, as if she saw the old things come before her eyes: "You just said that the spittle of the people in Xianyang will drown Miss Kong, which is true, but you are wrong and drowned by saliva. Object."

Mrs. Liu stared round, showing disbelief.

Mrs. Liu looked at her, and said with a pause: "The Kong family has never publicly stated that they have accepted the Liu family's marriage proposal, and it has always been our Liu family who talked. If Mr. Kong is still alive, of course we have to discuss this matter." However, what Ms. Kong said is not wrong. Mr. Kong returned home last month, and she, Kong Linglong, became the head of the Kong family. At the end, our Liu family is talking to ourselves, who will the saliva of the people of Xianyang be drowned in?"

If it wasn't for a sliver of strength to support her, Mrs. Liu would really collapse on the spot in consideration of her face.Mrs. Liu's words were sonorous, telling the truth that was ignored by the rest of the Liu family. Because she had been immersed in a dream and was suddenly awakened by reality, she felt particularly frightening.

Mrs. Liu murmured, "How could this be..."

Mrs. Liu opened her indifferent eyes: "It has always been like this. You and the boss Yelang are arrogant and cannot clearly see the true face of the Kong family. The most powerful identity of Kong Linglong is not that she is now the head of the Kong family. She is still lost. An orphan of all direct relatives, all the porridge shops in Xianyang City are run by the Kong family, and they give free food to the poor who can't afford to eat. In such a family of benefactors in the whole city, if the only orphan in the family is bullied even in the slightest , have you thought about the consequences?"

Mrs. Liu was already ashamed, she wished she could find a hole to get in, she looked down on Kong Linglong openly and secretly, it was indeed true, and because of her, the rest of the Liu family never concealed their contempt for the Kong family , because, the Kong family is a merchant...does it mean that the wife of her majestic Liu family still needs to pretend to be a junior who was born in a merchant?

However, Mrs. Liu couldn't say these words at all at the moment, she could only lower her eyebrows and look pleasingly: "Old madam, this matter has already happened, but there is still a way to make it up?"

This is the most important thing. No matter how much Mrs. Liu looks down on the identity of the Kong family merchants, she also knows how much the Kong family's wealth can bring about changes to the Liu family. Just thinking of these, Liu Da Madame can't let Kong Linglong call off this marriage.
