Chapter 706 The Mistress Who Was Splashed with Dirty Water 3
Looking at Mr. Tong who was silent, he pinched him hard and said, "It's all your fault. You are just bored.
Why would you give someone a ring that you once wore, and now you are harming your own daughter?"
Tong Yuanwai grimaced in pain and said, "Okay, okay, it's all my fault. I just thought the Zheng family was doing well back then.
I just wanted to make friends with him, in case my children have a bright future, we can get married."
Li glared at Mr. Tong angrily and said, "Yes, he is a very promising scholar, but his character is terrible. Don't tell me you can't see it.
He came to propose marriage just for our family's money. If he had honestly asked a matchmaker to come to our house to propose marriage, I would have looked up to him.
But what about him? He has been saying all this time. Isn't it because he is afraid that our family will reject him, so he wants to tie Luo Luo to him first?
To be able to come up with such a disgusting method, he is indeed a scholar, and he has many tricks up his sleeve. "
Mr. Tong also frowned. When he heard that a scholar came to propose marriage, he was quite happy. Maybe his daughter could become an official's wife in the future.
But after seeing Zheng Jiayu's behavior, he immediately gave up the idea, but at this time the servants brought news.
Everyone outside knows that the Tong and Zheng families are engaged.
Luo Chen smiled and said, "Okay, Mom and Dad, don't be angry anymore. Let your daughter handle this matter."
The two looked over and said, "Luo Luo, what are you doing?"
Luo Chen took her mother's hand and said, "Mom and Dad, you will know what your daughter is going to do in the future.
Now, parents just need to insist that you have never arranged a marriage for their daughter. Leave the rest to me and I will show you my daughter's methods."
The two looked at Luo Chen hesitantly: "Can you really do it? Do you need your parents to help?"
Luo Chen nodded: "Yes, give me money. It costs money to hire someone to do the job."
Tong Yuanwai smiled and gave Luo Chen a hundred taels of silver: "Take it, if it's not enough, ask daddy for more. If you need help, you must tell daddy, understand?"
"understood."
Luo Chen asked Santong to help him find the human trafficking organization in Fulin City, and then he sneaked out that night, brainwashed all these people, and then left.
The next day, the Tong family announced that the eldest daughter of the Tong family had no engagement.
Everyone immediately started talking, and those who had nothing to do sat near the tea stall.
"Hey, what do you think? Did Mr. Tong regret the engagement because he disliked the scholar's poverty?"
"No way, he is a scholar. If a daughter can marry a scholar, it is a blessing that has been accumulated for several lifetimes. How can the Tong family not like him?"
"Haha, do you think everyone's family is the same as yours? You're a poor fellow, just a scholar. You look promising, but who knows if you can pass the imperial examination in the future.
You know how big Mr. Tong's family business is. Anyone can step into the county magistrate's house.
Maybe they were planning to give their daughter to the county magistrate as a concubine, and more than ten years ago, there was the daughter of Mr. Qi in our family.
She married the county magistrate as a concubine, but within two years her wife died. The Qi family's daughter gave birth to a son and became the county magistrate's wife. "
"Oh, people nowadays care more about money than people. They would rather give their daughters to officials as concubines than marry them to a poor scholar with an uncertain future."
"No."
As they were chatting, a man in a coarse linen shirt suddenly came over and asked, "Uncle, where is Mr. Tong's home in Tongjiawan?"
"Go east, then turn right when you get out of this street. It's the first big house."
"Thank you, uncle."
"Hey, young man, who are you from the Tong family?"
The man said, "Oh, Miss Tong and I were engaged more than ten years ago, and today we are here to fulfill the engagement."
After saying that, he left.
Everyone came over immediately.
"Hey, did you hear that? He is also the fiancé of the eldest daughter of the Tong family. As far as I remember, Master Tong has only one daughter and one son."
"Yeah, what's going on? Did Master Tong marry his daughter to two families?"
"Impossible. Master Tong is a wealthy man. He wants to marry his daughter to two poor boys at the same time. Is Master Tong crazy?"
"Then what's going on?"
At this time, a brother and sister came over and asked, "Fellow villagers, where is Mr. Hao's home in Tongjiawan?"
"Go forward and turn left. Who are you from the Hao family?"
The eldest brother said, "My sister and Mr. Hao's son have been engaged since they were young, and today we are here to get married in the Hao family."
"Does the Hao family also have a hobby of marrying off daughters from poor families?"
At this time, another person came in: "Excuse me, ma'am, where is Mr. Li's home?"
"Turn right at the back. Who are you?" Everyone looked at the man curiously.
The man said, "The daughter of Mr. Li and I have been engaged since childhood, and this time we are here to complete the marriage."
Everyone was immediately surprised and asked, "Mr. Li doesn't have a daughter at home?"
The man's face suddenly changed, and then he quickly said: "Oh, I...I remembered it wrongly, it was the daughter of Mr. Hao's family."
"Mr. Hao's daughter got married last year and is about to give birth."
The man said in a panic, "Oh, that... is the daughter of Mr. Tong. Yes, I was betrothed to the daughter of Mr. Tong."
Everyone was even more shocked: "You are also engaged to Mr. Tong's daughter?!"
The man nodded, then followed the directions and went to Tong's house.
Everyone immediately felt something was wrong: "What's going on?"
"This is not right. There must be something fake in it."
"nonsense."
"Maybe they're all fake."
As we were chatting, several groups of people came to ask for directions. They were all unmarried men and women going to the homes of different wealthy men.
When Mr. Tong and Li were waiting for news about Luo Chen at home, a servant suddenly came to report that a man was outside, saying that he was an old friend of the master and came to visit.
Mr. Tong called someone in and took out a jade pendant as soon as he arrived, saying that he came to propose marriage and that this was an engagement token. Mr. Tong was stunned and Li was so angry that she wanted to hit someone.
When Mr. Tong was crying out that he was innocent, another person came and asked to come in, still holding a token of love to propose marriage.
At this time, people from the other families also came to the door and took out some so-called "tokens", saying that they were marriages that had been arranged in the past, and they came here specially to get married today.
The families of several wealthy men were in an uproar. As soon as one was beaten out, another came.
In order to see how many waves of people would come, everyone sat here the whole day, and bought two steamed buns when they were hungry.
After a day, everyone calculated that there were seven fiancés going to the Tong family, eight fiancées going to the Hao family, and nine illegitimate children going to the Li family.
