Farmhouse Green Plum

Chapter 447 Reason

Mrs. He looked gloomy, "Where have you been? What are you on guard against?"

The maid who had spoken earlier knelt down with a thud when she saw her expression. However, He Tianyu was very brave and quickly adjusted her expression. She said calmly, "I just went out for a walk."

Mrs. He was both pleased and angry. She was pleased that her daughter remained calm and composed in the face of difficulties, as if she would not change her expression even when the sky collapsed. But she was angry that her daughter used her calmness to deal with her own mother.

"Go out for a walk. What do you want to ask Doctor Song to come over for?" Mrs. He asked in a suppressed temper.

He Tianyu still looked indifferent, as if it was just a trivial matter: "I felt a little uncomfortable before, so I asked someone to see a doctor, and then I felt much better, so I wanted to go out and relax."

Mrs. He was so angry that she laughed. If she wanted to downplay the matter, she had to consider the situation. She had already heard Haitang's words before. It would be stupid for her to use these words to fool herself.

"Haitang, you speak." Madam He was too lazy to fight with her and turned her attention to the maid. "Think about it before you speak. If you tell a lie, humph, Old Cheng, are the human traffickers here?"

The middle-aged maid standing by replied, "They are already waiting in the hall."

Haitang's face turned even paler, and her whole body was shaking like a sieve. She kowtowed repeatedly: "Madam, please spare me! Madam, please spare me..."

The maid surnamed Cheng shouted, "Madam is asking you a question. If you don't answer, it won't be as simple as selling you."

Haitang dared not hide it any longer and told the whole story. It turned out that He Tianyu went out to relax today and accidentally heard Li and Yang asking Song Yuan to coax Song Ying over, saying that she wanted to meet a nephew from Yang's family.

Then He Tianyu suddenly asked her to call Song Ying away on the pretext of seeing a doctor, but she herself refused to come back no matter what.

In this situation, Haitang didn't dare to leave her there alone. The master and servant were in a stalemate. Seeing a maid from the kitchen coming out to buy something, Haitang hurriedly asked the maid to invite Song Ying and take her around the city.

Unexpectedly, the maid was so naive that Song Ying tricked her into revealing her master's family and purpose in just a few words. She was forced to return home and even went straight to Madam He to make a scene.

Mrs. He's eyebrows jumped when she heard this, and she looked at He Tianyu again, "Why did you ruin other people's appearance for no reason?"

He Tianyu pursed her lips and said nothing.

Mrs. He became even more worried. "I asked you at the beginning. You said you had no grudges against Doctor Xiao Song. So what are you doing now?"

He Tianyu remained silent.

"Are you attracted to the family she is looking for?" Madam He was so frightened that she almost jumped up. Seeing that the room had been cleared and only the four of them were there, she felt a little relieved and turned to ask Haitang, "What family did the Song family look for Doctor Song for, Miss..."

Having said that, even in front of her two servants, she couldn't continue. If a girl fell in love with someone else's husband, she would be despised even if she was a princess of the royal family.

Hearing this question, Haitang was even more frightened. "He is the nephew of Doctor Xiao Song's second aunt's mother's family. I think he is from the next room. I heard the man call Doctor Xiao Song's second aunt's mother great-aunt, but I don't know anything else."

After a pause, she added weakly, "The man came to sell wild boar, and the young lady went to ask a few questions, and bought a rack of ribs and asked him to deliver it to our house."

Mrs. He frowned as she listened. It seemed that her daughter really had a crush on the guy. Fortunately, she handled it properly and no one noticed anything. But it was really shameless!

She was extremely anxious, and then she noticed a fact, which made her frown even tighter. "Selling wild boars? Are they hunters? Why would the Song family recommend such a family to Dr. Song?"

Haitang was anxious to exonerate herself. She understood the meaning of her words and said hurriedly, "Looking at the man's clothes, his family situation should not be good."

Hearing this, Mrs. He felt as if her heart was being burned on fire. She felt extremely uncomfortable. It was already shameless enough that her daughter fell in love with a man someone else was dating and even tried to sabotage him.

It turned out that the man was just a poor hunter. Even if they hadn't looked for someone else, there was no way they would agree to this marriage!

If a scholar is poor, at least he can still turn his life around. If a hunter is young, he can still make a living by hunting because of his strong body. But what will he do when he is old?

Besides, how could the He family's pampered daughter marry a hunter and suffer hardship!

Madam He rubbed her brows and said to her daughter, "You should stop worrying about this as soon as possible. Even if the two families don't like each other, our family will not agree to this marriage."

After she finished speaking, she saw that her daughter was still silent and not acting desperately like other girls who were separated from their lovers. She knew that her daughter was not very interested in the man. She felt much more at ease and softened her tone.

"And Song Ying, she's a doctor, and behind her is a famous doctor like Dr. Lin. Many people want to get close to her, but you go and provoke and offend her.

I tell you, stay away from her recently, and be polite when you see her. Your second aunt from your family will come to see Song Ying for medical treatment in a while. If you offend her now, I will see that your father will punish you!"

He Tianyu nodded and finally spoke, "I know."

Mrs. He breathed a sigh of relief, but she was even more upset when she saw how quiet and silent her daughter was. In the past, she always hoped that her daughter could be more stable, but now she just hoped that she could be more lively, even if she could be as willful as before.

Seeing the old monk in meditation, she sometimes suspected that she was raising not a daughter but an old mother in her seventies.

Mrs. He sighed, still a little worried, and after leaving, she asked someone to find out more about Yang's nephew.

A few days later, she was even more upset when she heard the report. She looked at Mother Cheng suspiciously, "Are you sure you are right? She has no land and the elders in the other rooms are like wolves and tigers. Her life will be miserable if she gets married. How could the old lady of the Song family agree to such a marriage?"

Mother Cheng nodded and reported in detail: "I have asked several people in their village and people in nearby villages. They all said that the Yang family was not a good person. They occupied my nephew's land and refused to return it. This forced my nephew to learn hunting in order to survive.

It was also because of this situation that no one dared to marry their daughter to their family. It was said that even the boys and girls of marriageable age from other branches of the Yang family had not yet been engaged. No one wanted to be relatives of such a vicious family.

But I heard that Yang Chao is quite good. He is a great hunter. He can hunt game every few days. Not only does he support himself, but he also sells it in the city from time to time. He should have saved up some money. Maybe the Song family is willing to meet him because they think he is a good person."
