Chapter 181 People are shameless
The group sat down in the main hall of Qingxueju.
Rong Minglang spoke first: "None of us want to see Yuan'er die. But it has already happened, we should discuss and arrange her funeral so that she can leave with dignity and honor."
"That's right, big brother." Rong Enqing said, "Then let's announce to the public that he fell down on the slippery snowy road and died accidentally. What do you think, big brother?"
The first snow of winter fell in Beijing two days ago. It can be said that the accident happened because of people enjoying the snow, but it can be barely fooled.
"It would be more convincing to change it to 'depression caused by illness, death due to illness'." Old Lady Rong continued, "After all, Yuan'er has been childless for six years since her marriage, which has always been her heart disease. She finally got pregnant again a while ago, but she miscarried unexpectedly.
"You can even make the miscarriage sound more serious. You can say that the miscarriage caused Yuan'er's body to be damaged, and she was afraid that she would not be able to give birth to children in the future, so she was depressed and died of a long-term illness.
"This reason is more convincing. Eun-kyung, what do you think?"
The corners of Old Mrs. Rong's mouth curled up slightly in a deliberate manner, and her eyes were full of protest when she looked at Rong Enqing.
Rong Enqing frowned. Mrs. Rong was willing to sacrifice Yunhai's reputation!
After all, it was no secret that Yunhai and his wife had a fight, which led to Xiaorong's miscarriage, and then 80% of the servants in the mansion were sold out.
Now that Xiao Rong is dead, they still use this excuse... Even a fool knows that Xiao Rong's death is closely related to Yun Hai.
A man who fights with his wife, causes her to have a miscarriage, and finally causes her to die inexplicably... Just think about how many rumors Yunhai will have to face in the future.
As for Yunhai's desire to remarry in the future, that is even more wishful thinking!
But Yunhai is only 20 years old this year! He still has a long life ahead of him...
After realizing Mrs. Rong's sinister intentions, Rong Enqing immediately objected.
But before she could speak, Yun Hai said, "Just say it like this."
"Yun Hai!" Rong Enqing turned his head and glared at Yun Hai in reproach. "This matter concerns your reputation and future. It's not a joke. You can't just let it go."
"Mother, it doesn't matter. I was the one who was wronged by Rong Yuan. If saying this can comfort my grandmother and my parents-in-law, I don't care."
Yunhai shook his head at Rong Enqing, indicating that Rong Enqing didn't need to argue with Old Lady Rong about this matter anymore.
"Besides, compared with Rong Yuan's life, what does my reputation mean?" Yun Hai looked at Rong Enqing bitterly and persuaded her, "Mother, please think of it as me atonement for myself and fulfill my wish."
Now that things have come to this, what else can Rong Enqing say? He could only nod with a heavy heart.
Just as Rong En was counting his heads, Mrs. Rong suddenly said, "Since Yuan'er died because of your Yun family, it's not too much for us, her family members, to ask for an explanation, right?"
Rong Enqing looked at Old Lady Rong sarcastically. What was supposed to come finally came.
"Mother, what do you want to say?"
"Yuan'er's death, in the final analysis, was because she wanted to help her parents' family and sold the property of the fourth room, so she caught your eye, made you dislike her, and wanted to divorce her." Old Madam Rong sighed, and then said, "In the final analysis, it was all about the 20,000 taels of silver. Now that she is dead, the silver..."
Rong Enqing said disdainfully: "You don't have to pay back the money. Just think of it as compensation from the Yun family to the Rong family. Is that what mother wants to say?"
Although this was what Mrs. Rong meant, she was still a little embarrassed when Rong Enqing exposed her in public.
Rong Minglang, who was standing by, said at the right time: "Little sister, the Rong family has been in decline for many years. Now that the whole family has moved to the capital, it has cost a lot of money.
“Plus, the capital city is very expensive, and I have just taken office, so I have to make private connections, so I really can’t come up with so much money right now.
"Look... can you think of it as Big Brother borrowing it from you? I'll pay you back when Big Brother has more money in the future?"
Rong Minglang had a look of shame on his face and a gentle tone. It was clearly an excuse for not paying the debt, but when he said it, one could hear his sincerity.
Rong Enqing almost gave a thumbs up to the double act of Old Lady Rong and Rong Minglang. Unfortunately, this little trick couldn't fool her.
Let's put things one way or the other. It's more than 20,000 taels of silver. Can they just say nothing about it?
However, before she could say anything, Yun Hai spoke again: "Father-in-law, you don't have to pay back the money. Just think of it as Rong Yuan and I honoring the Yue family together. After all, it is Rong Yuan's filial piety."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Rong Minglang said yes three times in a row, his expression obviously a little excited, "You are a good child, Yuan'er did not marry the wrong person!"
After hearing Yun Hai's words, Mrs. Rong's expression became much better. Her eyes softened as she looked at Yun Hai.
Rong Enqing wanted to roll her eyes when she saw this. So the one who saved her was a bad person?
Her silly son was indeed too naive! He had just been splashed with dirty water, and then turned around and deceived him with a few words. This was a typical example of someone who was sold out and still wanted to help others count the money!
Yun Hai had already spoken, and although Rong Enqing disagreed, she couldn't refute too much. Moreover, she was going to see what other requests the Rong family mother and son had next, and then decide what to do. She didn't say anything immediately.
Seeing that she did not object, everyone thought she acquiesced.
At this time, Mrs. Rong spoke again: "Yunhai."
Yunhai looked at Old Lady Rong and responded respectfully, "Yes."
"You and Yuan'er have been married for six years and you still don't have a son. Now that Yuan'er is dead, there's not even anyone slamming pots and beating banners in front of her coffin."
When Mrs. Rong said this, she raised her hand and wiped her eyes.
Yun Hai quickly replied: "I am useless."
"It's not your fault. It's all Yuan'er's fault for not giving birth to a son." Mrs. Rong consoled her, and then continued, "But it's not right to not have a son.
"Your father-in-law and I want to adopt your eldest brother-in-law's son Xu Ming to you.
“Firstly, with a filial son present at Yuan’er’s funeral, the scene won’t be too embarrassing.
"Secondly, it can make up for your lack of a child. After all, it was Yuan'er's fault that she couldn't give you a son. The Rong family gave you a son as compensation.
"what do you think?"
This time, Rong Enqing did not wait for Yun Hai to speak, but as soon as Mrs. Rong finished speaking, she sarcastically said, "I have never seen anyone say such shameless words so righteously! I have learned a lot today!"
After hearing these words, Mrs. Rong's face suddenly fell.
