Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

>

However, they had never dreamed what could happen in those three days!

In just three days, rumors blew through Shuangliu county and Yuhe county like the wind.
Teahouses, restaurants, streets and lanes, almost everyone was talking about one thing: a rich young man had an affair with the eldest lady of the Su family but a country girl named Lian Fang Zhou had robbed the man from the young lady and fought with her.
The young lady of the Su family had even hired some people to go fight with her in person…”

The people who spread this rumor must have been fainthearted, knowing that the Cui family would not afford it.

This kind of love affair between two women fighting for the same man was very easy to attract people’s attention and spread like fire, not to mention one of the heroines was the eldest lady of the richest family in Shuangliu county!

The romantic affairs of wealthy families was exactly the type of gossip people were willing to talk about.

Once contaminated with the stain of salaciousness, rumors would always spread very quickly and widely.
After countless people’s paraphrasing, processing, supplementing, and imagination, countless versions had been created.
The more they spread, the more unbearable they became!

If they continued at this speed, it was likely that not only through the counties, these rumors would even pass to the neighboring counties!

Su Jing He’s face was gloomy and terrible.
He hadn’t been this furious for years but he still couldn’t resolved his fury even after smashing several vases.

Which shameless bastard had dared to do this? Did they take the entire Su family as dead!?

At first, they had tried to keep this matter a secret from Madam Su and Xin’er but how could it be kept?

Master Su and Madam Su were both so angry, they almost fainted and Madam Su burst into tears.

No matter how this incident was resolved, whether it was rumor or truth, in short, her daughter’s reputation was completely ruined!

No good family would come to ask for marriage now, even if their Su family was the richest family in the county!

Madam Su immediately ordered Su Xin’er to be placed under house arrest and she was strictly forbidden from stepping outside her yard! She was not allowed to complain about it, no matter how much she cried! Even the maids who were serving her daughter were given orders on the pain of death.
If anyone dared to reveal a word in front of the young lady, their fate was something they didn’t need to worry about anymore!

However, it was the second day that Madam Su and Master Su could not stand the most: a matchmaker came to make an offer for Su Xin’er.

The family making the offer was called the Shen family from the north of the city.
Although the family was wealthy, the couple was greedy and shameless and the wife a vulgar shrew.
Their only son was also a villain who only knew how to eat, drink, and gamble!

After listening to the matchmaker, Madam Su almost couldn’t get up, she was so out of breath from shock and anger! She pointed and yelled at the matchmaker and if it hadn’t been for the maids stopping her, she would have slapped the woman in the face!

The matchmaker left the Su Manor in embarrassment.
Before leaving, she muttered: “What kind of face does your eldest daughter have to be arrogant like this? People already know your daughter had sex before marriage and the Shen family doesn’t care about this green hat, what else do you have to criticize? Fine, after refusing this, there will be no better offers and she will never get married for the rest of her life!”

When Madam Su found out about this later, she was so furious she called people to destroy the matchmaker’s house.

A good eldest daughter had fallen to this point.
Madam Su was so angry and full of hatred that she could only turn her angry to Lian Fang Zhou, blaming her for hooking her nephew and instigating her daughter…
