Chapter 158: Tang Rou's Scheme
"I knew it must be that troublemaker from the Tang family." Granny Ye's angry appearance puzzled Chu Liushi.
"Mother-in-law, do you happen to know some private information?" Chu Liushi subconsciously felt that Granny Ye knew something she didn't.
Sure enough, Granny Ye dropped a bombshell, "Does the Tang family have a girl named Tang Rou?"
"Yes, what's the matter?" Mentioning Tang Rou, Chu Liushi instinctively frowned. She thought about the times when Ye Muyu brought Tang Rou into the house. It seemed that some villagers had seen Tang Rou visiting Ye Muyu several times.
She had only heard about this incident and hadn't asked Ye Muyu. At the time, nothing seemed to have happened and with the busy farming season she considered it a trivial matter and didn't pay much attention.
Granny Ye snorted angrily "That Tang Rou has her eyes on my son-in-law. Last time she stopped me and said a bunch of things about how my son-in-law mistreats my daughter. If it weren't for my daughter's clarification, I would have almost believed her."
In fact, Granny Ye had believed it. Since leaving the Chu family last time, she had been inquiring about reputable families.
Of course, because her granddaughter Ye Mengjie was already ten years old and could try to assess potential suitors, she had been inquiring about families that could be suitable for her granddaughter. However, she didn't explicitly mention this.
"Tang Rou likes the third son?" Chu Liushi was shocked beyond words.
She had never considered this possibility. After all, in the village Tang Rou was already an older unmarried woman.
The village knew the intentions of the Tang family, they wanted to marry Tang Rou into a wealthy family.
Naturally, Chu Liushi disliked the Tang family's lofty attitude and she had never thought that they would be willing to marry Tang Rou into their village. Although she believed that many young men in the village were worthy of Tang Rou.
"Mother-in-law, this joke is not funny." Although Chu Liushi said so, her complexion changed and she believed most of it.
Granny Ye was confident when talking about this matter. She refused to give up, "I'm not joking. Tang Rou really has her eyes on the third son. Let's confront her directly."
"Besides, listen to what she said."
"She said my son-in-law doesn't come back from the school, not for the exam, but to avoid my daughter."
"What's more, she claimed that you all don't like my daughter. At the last banquet, my daughter was scolded by the elder sister-in-law, spreading some nasty words. In the village, she can't even stand firm. The reason my son-in-law wants to divorce my daughter is because of that."
Granny Ye became angrier as she spoke. She looked at Chu Liushi with a hint of anger as if she wanted to quarrel directly.
Chu Liushi was also angry, but her rationality prevailed, "Mother-in-law, did Tang Rou tell you these things?"
She hadn't expected that an outsider would be so actively trying to break up the marriage between the couple. At this moment, Chu Liushi wished she could grab Tang Rou and give her a beating.
This girl was so shameless. She regretted being too gentle when she spoke to her before.
"Of course, these are all what Tang Rou deliberately told me. Word by word. I was furious. Mother-in-law, just tell me, what is your attitude toward my daughter? Although I, an old woman can't read my daughter is not someone to be bullied." Granny Ye deliberately snorted.
Chu Liushi said, "Regarding the incident at the banquet, Chu Yun was indeed wrong. I have already talked to the third daughter-in-law about it. When Chu Yun returns home, I will make her apologize to the third daughter-in-law in person."
"As for the rest, it's absolutely fabricated."
"Really?" Granny Ye deliberately showed an expression of disbelief but was actually testing Chu Liushi.
