Fate of the Stupid Son Chapter 215

The Song family hadn’t really discussed this matter, and Master Song was just about to ask the village head what the village head had to suggest when Song Si spoke up from the side, “The Gu family.”

The village headman’s smoking motion gave a pause, and then he understood. The Song family looked like they would soon be tying the knot with the Gu family, and it made sense to give the Gu family the hanging field.

Inside the house, Gu Yi looked at Song Wan Yue with crystal eyes, “Little girl, when are we going to be betrothed?”

He had been coming here every day for the past few days, and the Song family had long been off guard against him, so they didn’t care that he had entered Song Wangyue’s house.

“The sixth day of next month.”

Gu Yi counted on his fingers, “There are still many days left, can’t it be sooner?”

Song Wangyue smiled faintly, “How about sixteen?”

“The sixth day is good, the sixth day is good, I like the sixth day, the sixth day is smooth and harmonious.”

“Shut up!”

Gu Yi closed his mouth for a second.

Outside the house, the village chief finished smoking, knocked the pot on the ground and gave it back to Elder Song, “When do you plan to set the table?”

“After these few days, it’s not too late to set it up when the village is all busy.”

“Okay, don’t prepare any dishes that are too good, I’ll ask the people in the village to send you some more from what they have at home.”

“No, really.”

Elder Song hastily refused, “There is still some silver at home, there is still money to buy a few tables.”

“There really is?”

“There really is.”

“All right then, I’ll make it easy for you.”

After saying that, the village headman walked out with his hands behind his back, took one step and then retreated, patting Elder Song’s shoulder, “Song Gui ah, do you want to be the village headman?”

Old Master Song was startled, “Village Chief, please spare me, I’ve only been a working man all my life.”

“You really don’t want to be?”

“I really don’t.”

The mayor patted him on the shoulder again, this time with a little more force, “If you want to be one, just say so, and I’ll make room for you.”

Master Song’s forehead was sweating with anxiety, but the village headman once again walked out of the courtyard slowly, with his hands behind his back.

“Si’er, what does the village headman he, what does he mean?”

“What else could he mean ……,” without waiting for Song Si to answer, Song Sanxiao shuffled out of the house with his shoes.

The first time I saw you, I was so happy to see you.

“But don’t.”

The biggest official Song had ever seen in his life was the village head, not to mention the county magistrate, and his legs got weak at the mention of it.

……

In less than a day, the news that Song Siwei had won the Jieyuan examination spread throughout Qingping County and, naturally, to the Zhang family.

“What?”

Zhang Huai stood up incredulously and grabbed the butler’s collar, “Say it again.”

“It’s true, Song Si did win the yuan.”

Zhang Huai fell back, “This is impossible, how is this possible?”

Saying that, there was an instant rise, “Where is my father?”

“Master and Madam have gone to see Madam Yuan and Master Yuan.”

“Go and wait at the door, and when they return, come and tell me at once.”

……

Yuan’s house.

Yuan Min is still in a coma.

Mrs. Yuan’s eyes were swollen from crying.

Mrs. Zhang consoled, “Come on, don’t cry, Min’er still needs your care.”

“Master is too cruel, Min’er is her own daughter.”

Thinking of that day, Mrs Yuan’s heart cut like a knife.

“What is going on?”

Madam Yuan and Madam Zhang were handkerchiefs and both families were in business, and had long been interested in forming an in-law relationship, except that Master Zhang was high-minded at the time and thought that if Zhang Huai won the imperial examinations, he would have a good boost by letting him marry an official lady.

The other day, Zhang Huai was dismissed from his scholarship, and only then did Master Zhang die completely, and he intended to discuss the marriage. Therefore, after hearing that Yuan Min was unconscious today, the two of them came over.

Mrs. Yuan cried as she told her what had happened, “You also know that Min’er’s temper eats softness but not hardness, as long as she speaks properly, she won’t get angry and smash the bracelet, it must be because that maid surnamed Song said something that provoked her that Min’er smashed the bracelet in a fit of anger.”

Song?

The name Song Wan Yue flashed through Mrs. Zhang’s mind, and then she thought that it was impossible, if that girl was really engaged to the young master of the Gu family, how could Song Si go to their Zhang house to copy books for a silver tael.

“The Gu family is so big and wealthy that even the county magistrate has to be courteous when he sees them, Master Yuan can’t help it, so don’t blame him. ”

“I know he can’t, but he can’t just let people beat Min’er to death in front of me, I’m dying of heartache.”

Mrs. Zhang patted her hand comfortingly, “I know, I know, now that it’s happened, there’s nothing you can do even if you’re heartbroken. What did the doctor say, and when will Min’er wake up?”

At these words, Madam Yuan began to cry again, “The doctor can’t say for sure.”

……

Inside the flower room, Master Zhang also asked what happened, and sighed after hearing it, “What do you think is happening to our two families, one after another, first Huai’er and now Min’er.”

Master Yuan held his head up wearily, “This is indeed Min’er’s fault.”

“What’s wrong with Min’er? It’s just that she liked the bracelet, she’s just a child at heart. I think you should not have agreed to him at that time, he could have asked for a million taels.”

“He wouldn’t, but that stupid son of his would!”

When he said the word “foolish son”, Master Yuan gritted his teeth.

If that foolish son hadn’t given him three conditions to choose from at once, how could he have panicked and agreed to Master Gu’s conditions?

Master Zhang didn’t know what to say. It was hard to deal with a smart person, but it was even harder to deal with a fool, who was several times richer than them.

“I think you should resign that old courtier, you’ve been doing this for so many years, you can’t even tell the identity of a little girl.”

Master Yuan shook his head, “I don’t blame him for this, that maid surnamed Song is just a country girl, if she didn’t climb up to the young master of the Gu family, and she dared to make a scene in the pawnshop like that, I’d have someone break both her legs.”

Song?

The name Song Wan Yue also came to Master Zhang’s mind, he also thought it was impossible, then he thought of Gu Yi, his mind was suddenly aghast, “The girl you are talking about is not called Song Wan Yue, right?”

Master Yuan shook his head again, “I don’t know, I only heard Boss Wei’s call him Miss Song.”

“Then what does she look like?”

“There’s a seven or eight-year-old, and she looks like a country maid by the way she dresses, but her words and behaviour are nothing like that.”

Master Zhang’s heart jumped heavily, “What about the young master of the Gu family?”

“Eleven or twelve years old, he looks smart and clever, but the moment he opens his mouth he brings out his foolishness.”

Master Zhang couldn’t sit still and got up instantly, “I suddenly have some business in the mansion, I’ll go back first, if there’s anything you need help with, just have someone go and say so.”
