The evil mother-in-law does not whitewash, she only abuses her children

Chapter 615 This marriage cannot be accomplished

Tong Huaqiong originally wanted to write another letter to Aunt Tang, but she didn't expect that Aunt Tang would run to Qinghe Bay the next day.

Now the two of them are doing business together. Half of the cotton in the weaving workshop is from Aunt Tang. She comes to Qinghewan twice a month to reconcile the accounts.

This time Aunt Tang came not for cotton, but for the marriage proposal of the third son of the Lian family mentioned in Tong Huaqiong's letter.

Aunt Tang was dressed up gorgeously. When she saw Tong Huaqiong, she asked, "How did you know that my third son was going to get married? How come I didn't know? My wife is doing nothing and is arranging a marriage for her second son. Isn't that pushing the girl into trouble? I came here as soon as I received your letter. Why are you asking about the marriages of the second and third sons? Could it be that Wang the matchmaker..."

Aunt Tang glanced at Gu Taohua who was busy in the weaving workshop.

When she received Tong Huaqiong's letter, she suspected that Matchmaker Wang was planning to arrange a marriage for Gu Taohua.

After asking around in the inner house, she found out that the matchmaker Wang was talking about was a girl from the Gu family. She said that the girl was capable and pretty, and was in charge of the Qinghewan weaving workshop. When Aunt Tang heard about the girl from the Gu family and the weaving workshop, she almost confirmed that it was Gu Taohua.

She was so scared that she got up early without even having breakfast and ran to Qinghe Bay to find Tong Huaqiong.

Tong Huaqiong said, "Matchmaker Wang is looking for a husband for my niece Xiaoxue."

Then he pointed at Gu Xiaoxue.

Gu Xiaoxue was weaving with her back turned. Even though her face couldn't be seen clearly, Aunt Tang knew that she was a beauty.

Aunt Tang is in charge of the household now, and the lady cannot hide anything from her.

In addition, her daughter became the wife of the prefect, and she now has a domineering attitude in the Lian family. Even the old man of the Lian family is a little afraid of her. If his original wife Hua had not given birth to three sons, he would probably have made Concubine Tang his legal wife.

Aunt Tang whispered to Tong Huaqiong, "To be honest, the three sons of my family have been spoiled by the Hua family, and each one is more vicious than the other. Even if I really find a marriage partner for the third son, I'm not slandering him, but marrying him is no different from a hell. The maid in his room is already pregnant..."

"Of course, the second young master can't marry her."

After Aunt Tang said this, Tong Huaqiong knew what was going on.

"My second wife and her husband are greedy for money. They will push their daughter out to anyone who has money. My niece is a good girl. I am worried that the second wife secretly accepted the betrothal gift from your family and secretly married Xiaoxue to him."

Tong Huaqiong told Aunt Tang all about her worries and how Gu Youtian and his wife were planning to have Gu Xiaoxue go to the Xu family to pay off their debts.

Aunt Tang from the second branch of the Gu family was no stranger to her. Her son had plotted against her daughter, and all the new and old grudges came flooding back.

Aunt Tang said to Tong Huaqiong, "Don't worry, I'm here. This marriage won't be successful."

Tong Huaqiong immediately said: "How else can I discuss this with you?"

As he spoke, he took Aunt Tang's hand and walked towards home.

Aunt Tang said, "I love your pork ribs with preserved plums."

Tong Huaqiong said: "Enough, enough."

"Aunt Tong."

As soon as she arrived at the door of her house, Tong Huaqiong saw Gu Xiaocao coming out of her house holding a bright red wedding dress.

Gu Xiaocao was going to get married in two days, so Tong Huaqiong gave her ten days off.

Gu Xiaocao's marriage quietly spread throughout Qinghe Bay. It was only in the past two days that people in the village learned that Gu Xiaocao was not getting married, but was looking for a son-in-law.

The person she recruited was Hong Xiaoxi from Tong Huaqiong's shop.

The Hong family has five sons, and Hong Xiaoxi is the youngest.

His parents did not want Hong Xiaoxi to marry into their family, but the family was not so poor that they could not even afford to eat. Moreover, Hong Xiaoxi was already the owner of the Taohua Dessert branch. He could find any other girl he wanted, but he had to go to Qinghewan to marry into their family.

He is good-looking, can make money, and runs to Qinghewan to become a son-in-law. Naturally, Hong's parents cannot swallow this.

Gu Guangkui certainly doesn't want Gu Xiaocao to get married. They only have one daughter and don't plan to adopt a son. They want to keep their daughter and find a son-in-law.

Seeing that their marriage was about to fail, Hong Xiaoxi married into the wife's family despite his parents' opposition.

Gu Guangkui's family has been preparing for the wedding these days, and it looks like it will be a grand affair.

"Why are you here with the wedding dress?" Tong Huaqiong asked with a smile.

Gu Xiaocao looked shy and said, "The waist of my wedding dress is a little tight, and it's too late to remake it. Sister Fengnian is skillful, so I asked her to help me fix it. She happened to be talking to Sister Sufen, so I came to your house to find her, and the two sisters-in-law helped me sew it again."

Gu Xiaocao, who was about to get married, stood in front of Tong Huaqiong with great grace, looking even more charming than usual.

Tong Huaqiong was happy to see this.

"Ouch, why is the wedding dress so tight around the waist? Could it be that you..."

The one who spoke was Xu Xinghua. She looked Gu Xiaocao up and down, covered her mouth and sneered, "Are you secretly pregnant?"

Gu Xiaocao suddenly raised her head and shook her head subconsciously, "I didn't, I just gained weight from trying the cakes."

Xu Xinghua glanced at Gu Xiaocao's belly with a hint of amusement in her eyes.

Tong Huaqiong thought to herself, Gu Xiaocao, why are you explaining to her? She is here just to humiliate you.

"No, you're in such a hurry..."

Without waiting for Xu Xinghua to finish speaking, Tong Huaqiong slapped Xu Xinghua in the face.

Xu Xinghua widened her eyes.

Tong Huaqiong sneered: "Your father doesn't even dare to act rashly in front of me, how dare you slander Gu Xiaocao in front of me? If you continue to talk nonsense, I'll poke your mouth into pieces."

Tong Huaqiong pulled the hairpin from her head and was about to stab Xu Xinghua in the mouth.

Xu Xinghua screamed in fright.

Tong Huaqiong held her arm and threatened: "If any rumors spread in the village, I will tear you apart."

With a strong push, Xu Xinghua fell to the ground.

Tong Huaqiong's eyes were murderous, so Xu Xinghua got up, picked up her skirt and ran away.

Gu Xiaocao's eyes were red as she said, "I just ate some snacks and gained weight, and she spread rumors that I was pregnant. I don't know how I offended her, but she never says anything nice to me when we meet. I usually avoid her."

Tong Huaqiong said: "Don't be afraid, just wait for your wedding with peace of mind."

"Okay, Aunt Tong, I'll go back first." Gu Xiaocao nodded and hurried away holding her wedding dress.

Aunt Tang asked Tong Huaqiong: "Whose family is that girl with pockmarks on her face? Why is she so mean and mean?"

Tong Huaqiong said, "It's Xu Xinghua, Xu Zaohua's cousin. There's nothing good about her family. She herself has pockmarks on her face and is mentally twisted. Whenever she sees a pretty girl in the village, she gets jealous and spreads rumors about her behind her back."

After being slapped by Tong Huaqiong, Xu Xinghua did not go home, but hid behind the haystack and stared at Gu Xiaocao.

Why is it that although they are both girls from Qinghe Bay, Gu Xiaocao can easily marry a capable husband, while Gu Ruinian, a cripple, is unwilling to do so?

Xu Xinghua felt that Gu Xiaocao was superior to her. If it weren't for Gu Xiaocao, she would be the first person to find a son-in-law in Qinghe Bay.

How could Gu Xiaocao be better than her? Isn’t it just that face?

Tong Huaqiong saw a corner of Xu Xinghua's skirt exposed behind the haystack, and said to Aunt Tang as if nothing had happened, "This girl only does things that hurt others and benefit herself. It was she who instigated Xiaoxue to fall into the eyes of Matchmaker Wang."

Aunt Tang's eyes flickered as she said, "She is a good match for my Third Young Master."

Tong Huaqiong and Aunt Tang smiled at each other.

They understood each other's meaning.

Xu Xinghua, the source of trouble, must be eliminated.
