The three of them remained silent.
After waiting for about fifteen minutes, Chu Zhiwen and Chu Lin returned from the fields.
The two of them hurriedly washed their hands in the courtyard and entered the central room.
Chu Lin saw Madam Zhang’s slightly red eyes and angry eyes. His heart skipped a beat. He had not seen Madam Zhang like this for a long time.
Did something big happen?
He felt uneasy and frowned slightly. He quickly walked to the stool next to Madam Zhang and sat down.
He had wanted to ask what was going on, but seeing that his parents and Third Sister-in-law were here, it was obvious that they had to listen together. He could not help but be curious and waited for the elders to speak.
“Alright, tell us what happened. You called us back in such a hurry that we haven’t even finished the work yet,” Chu Zhiwen said.
“Father, the Song family is too shameless!” Madam Zhang could not hold it in any longer and said angrily.
“What exactly happened?” Chu Zhiwen saw that Madam Zhang was so agitated and frowned. He was also a little anxious.
“The Song family is secretly discussing marriage with the Wang family’s Third Young Miss about marriage!” Madam Zhang wiped her tears and said.
“He’s already engaged to our Qingxiang, but the Song family has been interacting with the Wang family in private for the past two days. I also heard that the younger generation of the Song family is wearing a bracelet on their hands!”
“I heard from the villagers that it appeared five or six days ago.” “At that time, Madam Huang even brought her daughter out to show off.”
“When people asked, they only said that Song Lu was filial. This news has spread throughout the entire Great Bamboo Village. I just asked someone and found out.”
‘Wait a minute, did you say that the Song family is discussing marriage with the Wang family and us at the same time?”
“Is it Landlord Wang’s family?” Madam Liu understood Madam Zhang’s words. At the same time as she was shocked, a wave of anger also emerged.
What was the Song family planning to do?
Did they think that the Chu family was not easy to bully? They did not have a backer before, so they could only endure it. Now that he had the backing of Landlord Wang’s family, they directly abandoned the Chu family. Were they not worried that the Chu family would go after them?
How despicable.
What made Madam Liu’s heart turn cold was that her family was only discussing marriage normally, and their requirements were not high, but they wanted to get rid of the Chu family as soon as possible?
“Mother, this news is absolutely correct. I went to the county to ask around. I’ve seen the Wang family’s bracelet style in the jewelry shop in the county, so I tried to ask.”
“That shop belongs to the Xie family, so there’s no possibility of lying to me. The shopkeeper said that it was the servant girl of the Wang family’s third daughter who came to buy it. Because she bought a lot, and most of them were small bracelets worn by children, the shopkeeper remembered it very clearly.”
“Even so, I didn’t jump to conclusions so easily because the Third Young Miss of the Wang Family is from a wealthy family. How could she be related to Song Lu? I thought it was just a coincidence.”
“I was thinking of how Mother said that we should ask clearly before making a conclusion. ”
“I found an opportunity to meet Third Sister-in-law’s mother and asked her to help me ask.”
Ye Muyu thought that this matter might be true. Otherwise, the Song family’s attitude would not have changed so much.
Old Madam Ye had always been talkative, so she should be the one who understood the situation in the village the most.
It had to be said that a chatterbox was the easiest way to get information.
“And then?” Chu Lin asked anxiously. Although he had already guessed that it was true, he still hoped that it was fake before he had evidence. After all, if this matter blew up, it could only be a scandal!
