Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

“You’re lying,” Song Qing shouted madly, her eyes filled with hatred.

She was held in Madam Huang’s arms and tied up, so she could not break free.

The more Madam Huang looked at her daughter, the more her heart ached.” Ye Zhao, why couldn’t you have turned around and looked at my daughter? If you had been more careful, my daughter would have been fine.”

Old Madam Ye did not want to speak at first, afraid that others would say that she was throwing a tantrum and ruined her son’s innocence.

Who knew that the Song family would bully the Ye family as they pleased just because she did not speak up? Did they really think that she was easy to bully?

“I say, Madam Huang, your daughter and Luo Dalin were obviously willing to go under the big poplar tree to avoid you. Now, could it be that you regret not negotiating the betrothal money with the Luo family? Moreover, she was seen by others and lost her reputation, so you went around looking for people to cause trouble?”

“Nonsense. My daughter was bullied. Even if you have power, you can’t bully people like this.” Madam Huang criticized sadly.

Old Madam Ye saw that she was throwing dirty water on herself again, so she did not stand on ceremony anymore. She scolded, “In this day and age, you don’t deserve to speak just because your family is living a little better? Besides, your family has a scholar, but is still a weakling? Did I use my power to oppress you?”

“Madam Huang, your words have offended people. The villagers are all working hard to live a good life. Which family doesn’t want a scholar in their family? Does a family become powerful just because they have a scholar? Oh, according to what you said, is whoever is weak in the right?”

“Luo Dalin, your family is so weak. I’m sure your family is right.” Old Madam Ye had wanted to help find the culprit, but who knew that Song Qing and Madam Huang would actually want to slander her family? They should not blame her for starting to slander them too.

‘I don’t care what happened to your family. It has nothing to do with my Ye family anyway.’

Luo Dalin had been tied up by the villagers in the crowd. When he heard this, his eyes lit up and he immediately cried out, “Village Chief, I’m innocent! Song Qing was the one who was willing to be intimate with me. How could she go back on her word and accuse me?”

“Besides, she’s already mine. Can she marry another man?” Luo Dalin said arrogantly and proudly.

His family was poor to begin with and he did not have the money to marry a wife. Now, how could he be willing to let go of Song Qing?

Old Madam Luo also clamored, “That’s right, Village Chief. I think you guys are just too free. Song Qing slept with my son and married into the Luo family. There’s nothing to worry about.”

She did not want her daughter-in-law to run away just like that, so she naturally wanted to smooth things over.

“You’re dreaming!” Song Qing roared madly.

“Even if I marry a dog, I won’t marry into your Luo family.”

Song Qing had always had a strong sense of self-esteem and a fiery personality. Due to the influence of Third Miss Wang, she looked forward to marrying into a better family. Now that her innocence had been destroyed, she was on the verge of becoming irritable and crazy.

That fierce gaze made the villagers who followed her feel a little afraid.

“You’re already a broken shoe. If you don’t marry my son, who can you marry?” Old Madam Luo was also shocked by her gaze, but thinking about it again, she felt aggrieved.

“Alright, stop arguing!” The village chief’s ears hurt from the noise. He shouted for everyone to stop before asking, “Now it’s not a problem of whether she’s married or not.”.

“Song Qing, can you prove that someone harmed you?”

“If you can’t, then this is a case where you two are fooling around. As for whether you two can get married or not, it’s up to your families.”

“I’ll give you one last chance to find evidence to prove that you were the victim. Ye Zhao can’t prove anything, so don’t blame him.” The village chief was not biased towards the Ye family. He really felt that this matter would affect their reputation and was extremely troublesome. It was useless to keep arguing.
