Chapter 9: Unfounded

Hearing that Xiao Mo let Yu Niang make her own decisions, Qiao Zheng's face became ugly.

Yu Niang's intentions are known to everyone, and she is definitely unwilling to leave the Xiao family, if Yu Niang can say it in front of everyone at this time, then Qiao Zheng came to the Xiao family this time to ask for someone, it is not that the Xiao family wants to keep Yu Niang, but that the Qiao family wants to force it.

In this way, Xiao Mo would be able to leave Yu Niang as a matter of course, and also take advantage of it, and Qiao Zheng would have nothing to say.

But why did Yu Niang make this decision?

Qiao Zheng snorted, and said with an unhappy face: "Ziheng, you are still a talented master, why don't you even distinguish between this respect and inferiority?" Yu Niang is a woman, where can she be the master? ”

Xiao Mo knew that Qiao Zheng would say this, because Xiao Mo had been lying in bed for nothing in recent days, so he investigated many books about the customs and customs of the An Dynasty, and some of them talked about women, and after reading the positioning of women in the book, Xiao Mo couldn't help but sigh.

In the era of male power, the identity of women is so humble! Especially widows, in some places even call widows 'ghost women', which means the wife of ghosts, if a man marries, after death to the underworld, he will have to fight with the widow's ex-husband, so it is so difficult for widows to remarry!

It is no wonder that even if Yu Niang was wronged by Meng Qiuxiang in the Xiao family, she had no intention of leaving the Xiao family at all.

Xiao Mo leaned on the door panel for a long time, a little physically exhausted, and after hearing Qiao Zheng's words, he replied with difficulty: "My own body, where can't I make my own decisions?" ”

When Xiao Mo spoke, everyone's eyes were of course focused on Xiao Mo's body. Yu Niang was careful, seeing that Xiao Mo didn't seem to be able to support it, knowing that his illness had not yet recovered, she was afraid that she could barely stand for a long time, so she got up and helped Xiao Mo, and remembered that Xiao Mo had insisted on the door panel for so long for herself, and her heart was moved, and tears flowed out again, and she shouted: "Ziheng ......"

Yu Niang's body was a little thin, and it was a little difficult to help Xiao Mo up, but he still helped Xiao Mo to the chair and sat down, Xiao Mo smiled at Yu Niang, and then said to Qiao Zheng: "Uncle Shi, my nephew said before that he would follow his father at home, but Yu Niang has already married, and if he marries, he has to be a husband, but before my brother could lift Yu Niang's hijab, he was forcibly conscripted into the army, and finally died on the battlefield!" The husband died and the son died, Yu Niang is still Yunying's virgin, where did the heir come from? ”

Qiao Zheng said coldly when he heard this: "The virtuous nephew's words are good, so Yu Niang has to listen to her husband's family!" ”

Qiao Zheng's meaning was still holding on to Meng Qiuxiang's original words, Xiao Mo snorted coldly in his heart when he heard this, and said secretly: Compare your mouth with me? Lao Tzu has lived two lifetimes, and he has nothing else in his stomach, only a belly of knowledge, will he lose to you in his mouth?

Xiao Mo shook his head and said: "What Uncle Shi said is good, but the Xiao family has fallen to this day, both father and brother are dead, there is an old mother, she is old, Xiao Mo is not filial, she is seriously ill, this illness is three years, her mother is heartbroken, and she can't preside over the family at all, so the affairs of the family are all handled by Yu Niang, in other words, if Xiao Mo is still unconscious, then the person who speaks to the Xiao family should be Yu Niang, I don't know if Uncle Shi and your uncles and Lin Li Chang are right, is it true to what Xiao Mo said just now?" ”

Everyone nodded, and at this time, as the mayor of Changle Town, Lin Chong also stood up and said: "Yes, in the past three years, Yu Niang has indeed supported the Xiao family by herself, and Ziheng's words just now were not wrong!" ”

Lin Chong said, another old man stood up, the old man is also surnamed Lin, the name Han, the word Dewang, is Lin Chong's uncle, and is also the old Li Zheng of Changle Town, and he is also quite prestigious around Changle Town, and Xiao Dingshan is even more friends, this time Lin Han can come to the Xiao family, and he was also invited by Xiao Dingshan to help deal with the matter of Jade Niang.

With so many elders here, and Xiao Mo had already made his position clear, Meng Qiuxiang simply fell silent.

Lin Han said: "No matter how the Xiao family treats Yu Niang, just based on Ziheng's words just now, Yu Niang has been in the Xiao family for three years, and it is worth it!" ”

After that, Lin Han glanced at Qiao Zheng meaningfully.

Lao Lizheng's words were very pertinent and fair, and after Qiao Zheng listened to it, he seemed to understand something.

Yes, Xiao Mo can say such a thing, it can be seen that he has great respect for Yu Niang, and judging from the title between Xiao Mo and Yu Niang, the relationship between the two does not seem to be like an ordinary uncle and sister-in-law, Yu Niang is determined to refuse to leave the Xiao family, among them, is there a reason why he doesn't know!

Thinking of this, Qiao Zheng's eyes when he looked at Xiao Mo changed, from his previous dissatisfaction to his current scrutiny, as if he was looking at his son-in-law.

Feeling Qiao Zheng's strange gaze, Xiao Mo knew that Qiao Zheng might have a change in his mind, as the saying goes, eyes are the window of a person's soul, and through the change of a person's eyes, you can feel that person's mental activity.

Now Qiao Zheng's gaze is no longer as strong as before, and it has softened a lot, Xiao Mo saw it, his heart moved, and he wanted to strike while the iron was hot, so he hurriedly said to Qiao Zheng: "Uncle Shi, according to the little nephew's opinion, Yu Niang should stay in the Xiao family, if Yu Niang's mind changes in the future, my Xiao family will never force it to stay, how about it?" ”

When Qiao Zheng heard this, he said with a cold face: "What if Yu Niang's mind remains the same?" ”

Xiao Mo replied: "Then my Xiao family will raise Yu Niang for the first time, although the Xiao family is currently in difficulty, maybe it is too early for Xiao Mo to guarantee anything, but Xiao Mo still has to say that the Xiao family in the future will only get better and better, as long as I Xiao Mo is here, I will not let Yu Niang suffer the slightest grievance, whether it is in the Xiao family or the entire An Dynasty!" ”

"There is no basis for words, can the virtuous nephew dare to make a note?"

After Qiao Zheng finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo secretly complained in his heart, he had long known that Qiao Zheng was definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult.

At this time, Yu Niang was so shocked by Xiao Mo's words just now that her mouth opened wide, and she couldn't close it, with Xiao Mo's words, she seemed to see hope again!

At this time, in the courtyard of the Xiao family, the two respectable uncles in the town, as well as Lizheng Lin Chong, as well as the father and son of the Qiao family, as well as Meng Qiuxiang and Yu Niang, all stared at Xiao Mo, seeing him answer Qiao Zheng like this, this note, whether Xiao Mo stands or not.

Xiao Mo was also distressed in his heart, not that he didn't want to set up this note, but that this note should be set up like this, how to set it up?

After the death of the elder brother, the brother-in-law wrote a note to give his sister-in-law a lifetime of happiness?

Pull it, such a note is too ridiculous, even though Xiao Mo has lived two lives and is very thick-skinned, he doesn't dare to set up such a ridiculous and generous note.

Seeing Xiao Mo hesitate, at this time, Yu Niang's brother Qiao Wenxuan said dissatisfiedly: "Having said so much, it turns out that you are just a powerful mouth, but you don't dare to promise my sister a lifetime of happiness in front of everyone!" ”

Xiao Mo rolled his eyes in his heart, Qiao Wenxuan, this guy is even more outrageous, he actually asked Xiao Mo to give Yu Niang a lifetime of happiness in front of so many people!

glanced at this stunned Qing speechlessly, Xiao Mo didn't know to say this in his heart, after all, Yu Niang is his sister-in-law, this promise is not established, I am afraid that Yu Niang will be disappointed, and the Qiao family will not stop like this; If so, what has become of it?

Could it be that in the future, Yu Niang will stay in the Xiao family and refuse to remarry, if she can't get happiness, she will marry Yu Niang in order to fulfill her promise?

What did that become?

Thinking of this, Xiao Mo was suddenly shocked.

remembered the way Yu Niang saw her eyes on weekdays, and the way Yu Niang touched her face and cried when she was half asleep and woke up yesterday, and the reason why Yu Niang would rather be beaten to death by Qiao Zheng than let go and go back to Qiao's house.

Could it be that Yu Niang really has such a meaning to marry herself?

Thinking about it this way, Xiao Mo can explain clearly why Yu Niang can take care of herself consistently for three years, why Yu Niang is unwilling to leave the Xiao family to remarry, and why Yu Niang will secretly cry after seeing herself and Hu Yunxue close yesterday.

All of this is actually because Yu Niang's heart has long had the intention of marrying herself.

Xiao Mo was speechless for a while, what is this called?

In my previous life, I lived aggrieved enough, but I didn't expect that after finally crossing over, it was still so unsmooth, and I crossed into a widow's village, not to mention, even my sister-in-law was a widow, and she was still a virgin, and she wanted to marry herself.

But I can't say no, these days, Xiao Mo has seen Yu Niang's every move, as a modern person, to be honest, Xiao Mo is very moved by what Yu Niang did, and admires her loyalty to the Xiao family and never abandons.

But admiration and emotion are not love!

No, I still have to find an opportunity to ask Yu Niang separately what she means, maybe it's wrong or not, but the matter of the word in front of you, should it be solved like this?

Xiao Mo asked Meng Qiuxiang to ask, but Meng Qiuxiang didn't move, didn't speak, just sat on the chair with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.

Under the gaze of everyone, Xiao Mo finally made up his mind, picked up the brush, and was about to start writing notes, but at this time, everyone heard Meng Qiuxiang shouting: "Slow! ”

As soon as Meng Qiuxiang spoke, everyone shifted their attention to Meng Qiuxiang.

Qiao Zheng asked with some dissatisfaction: "Mother-in-law, what does this mean?" ”

Meng Qiuxiang's tears were not dry, and her voice was still a little choked: "Don't embarrass Xiao Mo, he was in a coma for three years before he woke up...... I don't know anything, this note, Xiao Mo can't stand it! ”

"Why can't you stand?" Hearing Xiao's mother's words, everyone felt that there seemed to be something hidden in the matter, and Xiao Mo was also a little surprised, but it was Qiao Zheng who was most worried about this problem.

Meng Qiuxiang's mood seemed to have eased a lot, she turned around and took Yu Niang's hand, and said, "Child, I've suffered you all these years!" But this note, Xiao Mo can't stand, because you are innocent, you and Xiao Hao have not passed the court, and you have not finished worshipping heaven and earth, what restricts you is just a marriage letter, but the night before you and Xiao Hao got married, Xiao Hao got the news of the conscription, Xiao Mo was seriously ill at that time, Xiao Hao felt that he could not delay Yu Niang, so he ...... Tear up the marriage book! ”

Hearing Meng Qiuxiang's words, both Qiao Zheng and Xiao Mo were dumbfounded, of course, the person who couldn't accept the news the most was Yu Niang.

Yu Niang only felt that the sky seemed to have fallen, for three years, she had been guarding for this title for so long, but she didn't expect that in the end, she just delayed her youth in vain, she didn't have a marriage certificate, and she didn't finish worshipping heaven and earth, and she was still a virgin after three years of entering the door, that is to say, Yu Niang couldn't be regarded as a member of the Xiao family at all.

So what am I?

Yu Niang's mind also went blank, and she didn't even know how to think.

"What? Torn? ”

Lin Chong was surprised when he heard this, and then said to Xiao's mother: "Sister-in-law, why hasn't this matter been mentioned?" ”

Meng Qiuxiang shook her head and said, "It's me who is confused, thinking that Hao'er can come back safely, and finally the third media and six hired a daughter-in-law to come back, where is the reason to send it back so easily?" Besides, I was afraid that my in-laws would be angry, so I forced Xiao Hao to worship with Yu Niang, who knew that it would become the current result! ”

At this time, Qiao Zheng finally came to his senses, he glanced at everyone in the hall coldly, and then asked in a deep voice: "In other words, before the Xiao family tore up the marriage certificate, Yu Niang was not the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family at all?" ”

Hearing Qiao Zheng's question, even Xiao Dingshan was helpless this time, and said: "There is no evidence, you have all torn up the marriage certificate, alas, ......"

Xiao Mo also frowned, if what Meng Qiuxiang said was true, then the matter would become serious, if it was not handled well, Qiao Zheng was angry and sued the Xiao family to the county government, saying that the Xiao family had robbed the jade girl for three years, and the Xiao family had nothing to say, and in the end they would definitely have to eat a lawsuit, with the current situation of the Xiao family, where could they bear it?

Looking at Yu Niang again, she was still in a sluggish state, and the whole person was loosened and sat on the ground weakly.

"Wronged, wronged......" Lin Han sighed and stood up, then kept shaking his head, looking outside the door of the Xiao family, the matter reached this point, Lin Han was also powerless, so he planned to leave the Xiao family.

Seeing Lin Han get up, Xiao Dingshan also stood up and said to Xiao Mo: "Xiao Mo, this matter, my uncle can only help here, alas, ......"

After that, Xiao Dingshan also left, only Lin Chong had a straight face, and the rather dignified middle-aged man was still sitting in the lobby of the Xiao family.
