When it came to familial hierarchy, he was the cousin of Zhuang Wencheng. Whether he should assist in this matter or not, he decided he needed to consult with Mrs. Wen before making any decisions.
Zhuang Dahe and the others, having explained the matter, were eager to see the spectacle. They did not say anything more to Zhuang Yutian and Zhuang Qingning, and hastily went ahead.
Zhuang Yutian immediately went to find Mrs. Wen to inform her about the event.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wen let out a cold laugh, “Zhuang Ruman and his wife can’t raise a decent child. Does Zhuang Qinghe think she is worthy of
Wencheng given her character?”
“You should ask Mrs. Wang if she wants to help and join the crowd, at least let Zhuang Ruman’s household understand that we are not easily bullied, and Wencheng is not someone she, Zhuang Qinghe, can covet!
Zhuang Yutian knew that the relationship between Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Wang was not harmonious. The only reason they’ve interacted so much over the years was because of Zhuang Wencheng’s filial piety towards Mrs. Wen and her fondness for him. The fact that she was so angry at this time was naturally because Zhuang Wencheng was affected.
Although it may be seen as romantic for a man to attract adoration, most rural households only have one wife for a lifetime. Therefore, marriage is extremely important. Zhuang Qinghe seeking to elope with Zhuang Wencheng would undoubtedly lead others to judge him adversely, seeing him as someone who would tamper with a girl who was about to be engaged.
Zhuang Wencheng’s reputation had been damaged, and this would naturally affect his marriage prospects.
“I understand, Mother. I’m going right now.” Zhuang Yutian temporarily set aside the matter at hand and headed to Zhuang Ruman’s house.
At this time, Zhuang Ruman’s house was surrounded by crowds inside and out. It took a great deal of effort for Zhuang Yutian to elbow his way in. Once he had entered the courtyard, he saw Zhuang Qinghe kneeling on the ground, sobbing to the point of drenching herself in tears, her face clearly showing signs of being slapped, and even marks of whip lashes on her body.
Zhuang Ruman was fuming with anger, periodically pinching Zhuang Qinghe and causing her to grimace with pain, screaming.
Mrs. Wang, on the other hand, was standing with her hands on her hips and a frown on her face, angrily shouting, “Look at the good daughter you’ve raised, seducing men everywhere and even seducing our Wencheng!
“This is a village and we all share the same surname. Aren’t you ashamed? How did my innocent Wencheng end up suffering due to your actions? You have tainted his reputation, how will he get married or establish himself as a doctor in the county town in the future?”
“If your family fails to account for this matter today, I will dismantle your
house!”
“Exactly, we were bullied right to our doorstep. Do you think we don’t have any people to fight back?” The speaker was Wang’s eldest son, Zhuang Wenxing.
“Exactly, exactly…”
The group of younger followers behind him, all close to Zhuang Wenxing’s family, was more than a dozen in number.
