C207 (2/2)

The Shen family is one of the most powerful families in Beitang County, and the Shen Alliance is a generous and loyal family. Which poor family in the county had no money for their funeral and could always borrow money from him. If someone failed to turn the tables on him and went to borrow some rice grains, he would only instruct someone to bring them back but not ask them to return the money. Every year, he would open a porridge store to give some rice and herbs to the poor. He was a famous benefactor in the area.

This Shen Chun Niang has an aunt called Aunt Xiu, who is the half-sister of Shen Lian. Although she was his own sister, she was no older than his daughter, Chun Niang. She was only seventeen or eighteen years old. He had arranged a marriage with the younger brother of the Huang Family, who was an outsider to the local government. The two families were very satisfied with this marriage. They changed their dragon-phoenix paste and waited for the day to arrive before coming to marry the bride.

However, the sky was unpredictable. On this day, Shen Lian was chatting with someone at home when she heard from a servant that Huang had come to visit. Once Shen Lian heard that his family was here, naturally, he welcomed them well. After he came to the main entrance, he welcomed Huang Wen in and greeted him warmly.

”I didn't know that Brother Huang had come to pay me a visit, I did not welcome you from afar, please forgive me.” Shen Lian smiled and flattered Huang Wen.

Unexpectedly, Huang Wen's face was full of resentment as he stared at Shen Lian. After being stunned for a moment, he let out a cold snort.

”Brother Shen, I've come here today to end the engagement!”

”Haha, Brother Huang is still as witty as ever. Come, come, come. Please take a seat.” Shen Lian thought Huang Wen was joking with him, so she laughed and grabbed his sleeves, wanting to lure him into a seat.

”Old master Shen, I am not joking around today. I am here to end the engagement!” If you don't, don't blame me for being merciless! ”

Although Huang Wen's words were simple, they exploded within Shen Lian's heart like a thunderclap.

”Brother Huang, what is the meaning of this? Although my sister is not a beauty that can topple empires, she is still a well-known lady of our region. If you cancel the engagement today, how are you going to make my sister go out to meet someone in the future? ” Shen Lian was getting more and more agitated as she spoke, and the more she spoke, the angrier she got. In the end, her whole body was trembling.

On the other hand, Huang Wen sneered coldly.

”A lady of a noble family? You siblings are incestuous and adulterous! Could it be that I do not know about it! ” Huang Wen pointed at Shen Lian and coldly shouted!

”Huang!” Don't you dare spout nonsense here! You say I don't matter, you slander my sister so! ”If you don't give me an explanation today, I will go to the yamen and denounce you for your lies!” At this time, Shen Lian was also getting anxious. He was so angry that his entire body was trembling, pointing at Huang Wen as he scolded.

But when Huang Wen heard these words, he did not get angry and laughed instead.

”Haha, sue me? Someone with the surname Shen! I, this Huang, will tell you today! ”Even if you don't go and complain at the yamen, I will go to the county magistrate and expose your adultery!” Saying that, Huang Wen flicked his sleeves and left the Shen Manor.

After Huang Wen left, Shen Lian was so angry that the teacups and vases in the living room shattered into pieces, but the servant and servant did not dare to persuade him. In all the years they had served the old master, they had never seen their old master so angry.

Not long later, Shen Lian gathered her emotions and called for the butler. After instructing him for a while, she prepared to go to the yamen and report to them.

Unexpectedly, just as he reached the door, he saw a few messengers from the yamen entrance.

”Old Master Shen, I'll have to trouble you to follow us. The county magistrate has an invitation!” Shen Lian didn't need to think about Instructor Ye. Summoning him to the yamen entrance was definitely due to Huang Wen being the first to file a complaint.

Shen Lian didn't take it to heart. After all, her body was straight and she wasn't afraid of slanting shadows. She and her little sister were innocent, so how could she be afraid of rumors and rumors?

However, it was a blessing in disguise, and the Huang Family's character had been exposed after the incident. Fortunately, his sister had not married into his family, otherwise, who knew what grievances she would suffer in the future.

With that thought, it didn't take long for Shen Lian to arrive at the court with his men. Seeing the lord in the court, Shen Lian respectfully greeted him with a bow.

”This student greets the county magistrate.”
