Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 736: Many Cheats 57
After this matter was resolved, there was nothing to worry about for the time being, so Linlang felt relieved and continued to live a leisurely life.

As a result, on this day, news came from my mother's home, that is, the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion. It was sent by my mother, the Lady of the Jing'an Marquis, saying that something had happened to Shen Er Niang. It was said that Shen Er Niang really couldn't stay in the Shen family's hometown and disliked the place because it was not prosperous. In addition, her husband's family also wanted to develop in the capital, so they brought their family to the capital. A large group of people have arrived and are temporarily living in the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion. They plan to move out after finding a house.

Shen Erniang went to the capital, bringing a large group of people from her husband's family with her. Naturally, this caused a great commotion in the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion. Even a person with a good temper like the Jing'an Marquis's wife was troubled by it.

Of course, Earl Jing'an also had a headache, because he knew that once the news of Shen Erniang running to the capital with her family spread, people would laugh at him again. How could Earl Jing'an not have a headache when he thought about being embarrassed again?
Why did Jing'an Bo betroth Shen Erniang to the eldest son of a fifth-rank official in the capital, and why did Shen Erniang later marry in the Shen family's ancestral hometown?

There is naturally a reason for this.

At the beginning, Earl Jing'an betrothed Shen Er Niang to the eldest son of a fifth-rank official in the capital. As a result, Shen Er Niang was not satisfied. Somehow, the matter was spread to the wife of the fifth-rank official.

When the wife of the fifth-rank official heard that Shen Erniang disliked their family, she became unhappy and immediately canceled the marriage.

——Linlang suspected that the reason why the wife of the fifth-rank official knew about this was because someone told her about it on purpose.

And this person is probably the one who exposed Shen Er Niang as a plagiarist in the original world. After all, apart from this person who caused trouble for Shen Er Niang, no one else showed hostility towards Shen Er Niang.

So Linlang guessed that in the original world, the person who secretly published the poetry collection and made trouble for Shen Erniang had never intended to let Shen Erniang go, so he had been keeping an eye on Shen Erniang's situation and didn't want her to have an easy time. As a result, Shen Erniang was engaged to the eldest son of a fifth-rank official. The other party couldn't stand it, so he deliberately revealed Shen Erniang's reaction to Shen Erniang's fiancé's family, causing Shen Erniang's fiancé's family to cancel the engagement.

Linlang suspected that this person was probably reincarnated, and might have had some conflict with Shen Erniang in his previous life, otherwise he wouldn't have kept chasing after Shen Erniang and biting her.

After all, if he was just an ordinary time traveler, he would have been unable to bear to see Shen Er Niang being a plagiarist and would have exposed her. In this life, Shen Er Niang chose to expose herself, preventing the other party from being exposed in time. Logically, the matter should have ended at this point.

The story did not end there. Shen Er Niang was engaged to the eldest son of a fifth-rank official, but the other party was still not satisfied and came out to sabotage her. It would be strange if he was not a reborn person and had conflicts with Shen Er Niang in his previous life.

However, because the other party was too secretive, Linlang never found out who was secretly targeting Shen Erniang.

If she had known earlier that person would destroy the marriage between Shen Erniang and the eldest son of the fifth-rank official, she would have placed little bees around the fifth-rank official's wife to see who was passing the message to the fifth-rank official's wife.

The main reason was that Linlang felt that Shen Erniang had chosen to expose herself, and those who had troubled Shen Erniang in her original world would not trouble her again. Besides, the conditions of the eldest son of a fifth-rank official were very ordinary compared to those of the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion, and she had never thought that with such conditions, there would be people who would sabotage him, so she did not put any bees around the wife of the fifth-rank official.

Now that the little bee was not released, Linlang investigated, but could not find out the reason, because the wife of the fifth-rank official heard it by accident, and could not find the person who said it, so Linlang had to find out where to go. Because she could not find it, Linlang realized that the person in the dark was very cautious.

However, it was normal for the wife of the fifth-rank official to cancel the engagement after hearing Shen Erniang's dislike. Every child is a treasure, and no one wants to be looked down upon.

She originally wanted to use this marriage to get into the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion, but she also didn't want her son to suffer any grievances. Of course, more importantly, her daughter-in-law looked down on her family and her son. Even if she forced her to marry her, there would be unhappiness in the end. She didn't want her family to be disturbed.

Although it was important to have a connection with the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion, the peace of the family was more important. After all, this would at least affect several generations. So after thinking about it, the fifth-rank official cancelled the engagement. Even if he couldn't have a connection with the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion, it didn't matter.

Of course, in order to avoid offending the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion by canceling the engagement, they asked their son to pretend to be sick, saying that his health was not good. They were afraid of delaying the Jing'an Marquis's daughter, so they canceled the engagement.

Moreover, canceling the engagement in this way would also bring face to the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion. When the time comes, they can tell others that the original cancellation of the engagement was due to the man's poor health and he took the initiative to cancel the engagement. It had nothing to do with the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion and everyone would understand.

The son of the fifth-rank official naturally also heard that Shen Er Niang looked down on him, and he had been feeling uncomfortable for a long time. After all, although he was only the son of a fifth-rank official, he had grown up in luxury and was a young master. He had not yet come into contact with officialdom, and he had always been smooth sailing. People all around him were flattering him, and no one dared to give him a hard time. Now that he heard that his fiancée looked down on him, it would be strange if he could feel comfortable. So when he saw his parents decide to cancel the engagement, he naturally agreed with both hands and feet, and pretended to be sick to cancel the engagement at that time.

Anyway, once Shen Erniang gets married, he can pretend to be well and continue looking for a marriage partner.

It’s better to choose anyone than a wife who looks down on you.

Because Shen Erniang was rejected by that family, Jing'an Earl heard that it was because she despised the family's fifth-rank official family and was unwilling to marry. This news reached the other party's ears, so the other party rejected the marriage. They thought that it would be difficult to find a marriage in the capital, so they finally found a marriage for Shen Erniang in her hometown. They thought that even if Shen Erniang despised the family, it would not be heard by the other party, so the engagement would not be rejected and she could be married smoothly.

In small places, the highest official was only a fifth-rank prefect, so it was naturally difficult to find a family with good conditions. After all, even if the local conditions were good, the other party's family might not necessarily have a son of the right age. So after searching for a long time, they only found a family of a sixth-rank official. And the official was not the father of Shen Er Niang's husband, but his uncle. However, Shen Er Niang's husband's grandparents were both there, so the family lived together.

Of course, it is impossible that the Earl of Jing'an would choose this family because they have no merits at all. They just depend on the eldest wife for living. In fact, this family is a well-known local tyrant and has many fields, farms, shops, etc.

Jing'an Bo also considered that the living conditions were too poor and Shen Erniang might not be willing, so he found such a wealthy family.

As a result, even though her husband's family was rich, Shen Erniang was still not satisfied with the local situation. After all, she lived in the capital, which was so luxurious. Even if her husband's family was a well-known local tyrant, she was still not satisfied with such a place and wanted to go back to the capital every day.
