Chapter 505: The Betrayal Scumbag 7
"But……"
"There's nothing to worry about," Kong's mother interrupted Jiang Chunxi, "Someone come! Send the young lady back."
Mother Kong could hardly hold back her inner anger. If Jiang Chunxi wasn't asked to leave quickly, she was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and would just slap Jiang Chunxi in the face.
Jiang Chunxi naturally left obediently.
After Jiang Chunxi left, Kong's mother asked all the servants to go down, intending to tell her son about her plan against Jiang Chunxi.
After all, in this situation, Kong's mother doesn't care how her son views her.
After hearing what his mother said, Kong Lishen looked extremely shocked. He really didn't expect that his parents had such vicious intentions towards Jiang Chunxi. This made him feel cold in his heart.
"Now you finally understand why your father and I will not agree to you and Chunxi breaking off the engagement!" Kong's mother looked at her son and said, "Whether it's for Chunxi's dowry or your father's reputation, even if you really kill yourself, your father and I will not let you break off the engagement."
"If you still have any brains, then stop thinking about canceling the engagement and quickly break up with that vixen outside. Otherwise, you might as well just die now and see if I will stop your father from beating you to death."
Kong Lishen's expression was very conflicted, but his love-minded mind still prevailed: "Dad, Mother, I really can't lose Wanfan. I will marry Wanfan in this life. As for Chunxi, I have another plan."
Mr. and Mrs. Kong looked very unhappy, but they were still prepared to listen to what their son had to say.
"If Chunxi takes the initiative to be a concubine for my son, then my father and mother's plan can proceed as usual. After all, if Chunxi takes the initiative to be a concubine for my son, I believe that the Jiang family in Jiangnan and Chunxi's grandfather's family will not be able to afford the shame, so they will naturally give up on Chunxi and not bother to care about her life or death."
"At that time, it will be up to our family to decide how Chunxi should die. As long as Chunxi dies in a way that tarnishes her reputation, the Jiang family will never dare to go to the capital to ask for Chunxi's dowry. Otherwise, the Jiang family's reputation will be ruined by Chunxi."
In order to marry the woman he loves, Kong Lishen doesn't care about so many things now, even though he feels very sorry for Chunxi, but a man is not a real man if he is not ruthless.
He really had no other choice. He couldn't stop him from marrying Wanfan just for Chunxi's dowry!
At worst, after Chunxi dies, he can just burn more paper money for Chunxi.
Mother Kong frowned tightly, "How dare you think that? You are the one who wants to break off the engagement. Do you think Chunxi will be willing to be your concubine? Don't forget that Chunxi is also trying to break off the engagement with you."
Kong Lishen sneered, "Mother, don't you know how deeply Chunxi loves me? Given how much Chunxi has loved me since I was a child, how could she be willing to break off the engagement with me? She took the initiative to break off the engagement, but she was just retreating to advance."
"In any case, don't worry! I have a way to make Chunxi take the initiative to become my concubine. You and Dad just wait for my good news."
"Do you really have a way to make Chunxi take the initiative to become a concubine?" Father Kong looked at his son and asked:
If Chunxi could take the initiative to be a concubine, it would be better than letting her son marry her. The noble family of Qingliu attaches great importance to integrity. If Chunxi is willing to be a concubine for her son, it doesn't matter even if her son is at fault and wants to cancel the engagement.
The Jiang family members would only think that Chunxi had brought disgrace upon the Jiang family, but they would not specially go to the capital city to help Chunxi, and naturally they would not care about Chunxi's life or death.
As for Chunxi's grandfather's family, they were just a merchant family. If the Jiang family had not taken the lead, they would certainly not dare to offend the Kong family for the sake of their granddaughter.
"Don't worry, father. I am absolutely sure of this." Kong Lishen said confidently:
"Since you are so confident, then go for it!" Although he said this, Kong's father's face did not look any happier. "But even if you can convince Chunxi to be your concubine, you can't even think of marrying that woman named Wanfan. The eldest daughter-in-law of my Kong family is not something that a woman of unknown origin can afford."
"Dad, Wanfan is not some unknown woman. She is the daughter of the Imperial Censor's family." Kong Lishen said quickly:
Kong's mother: "Nonsense, the daughter of the censor's family is already engaged, how could she be involved with you?"
"Mother, Wanfan is the daughter of a concubine of the Censor family," Kong Lishen said hurriedly, "Although she is a concubine's daughter, she is deeply loved by the Censor and his wife. Therefore, even if she is a concubine's daughter, she is no different from a legitimate daughter."
Kong's mother had naturally heard about the situation in the Censor's family. She knew that the Censor's wife was indeed very fond of a concubine's daughter. The concubine had everything that the legitimate daughter had, but so what?
How could a mere concubine's daughter be worthy of her son?
"No," Kong's mother said sternly, "If you really like that woman, then bring her into the mansion as a concubine. Don't even think about marrying her in a sedan chair carried by eight people."
"How dare you," Kong's father rolled his eyes at his wife. "The daughter of a dignified imperial censor, even if she is a concubine, cannot possibly be allowed to be a concubine. Otherwise, she will be despised by the court."
Then, Father Kong looked at his son and said, "As long as you can convince Chunxi to be your concubine, I will ask your mother to go to the Imperial Censor's Mansion to propose marriage. Although a concubine's daughter is not worthy of you, a concubine's daughter who is favored is still different. This marriage is not impossible."
"Thank you, father." Kong Lishen said happily:
Kong's mother still looked unhappy, but since her husband had said so, what else could she say?
Kong Lishen came to Jiang Chunxi's yard the next day. In the past, when he came to see Jiang Chunxi, he would go directly into Jiang Chunxi's boudoir.
But now she was stopped outside the house by Yaoying: "Master, this is against the rules. How can a man like you enter the young lady's boudoir? If you have anything to say to the young lady, you can tell me and let me speak for you. Please don't..."
"How dare you," Brother Li Shen slapped Yao Ying directly, "Someone, come! Drag this lowly slave away and beat her with 20 sticks."
"Brother Li Shen came to my yard shouting and yelling, is he planning to kill me?" Jiang Chunxi walked in from the house. "Because he can't break off the engagement with me, Brother Li Shen plans to just go all out and take my life?"
"Chunxi, how could you miss me like this?" Kong Lishen looked at Jiang Chunxi helplessly. "Although I don't have any romantic feelings for you, we grew up together. In my heart, you are no different from my own sister. How could I want to kill you? You said such words, which really hurts my heart as a brother."
"Ha!" Jiang Chunxi sneered, "Brother Li Shen, please stop saying such ridiculous things. You and I are not related by blood. It's really disgusting to hear you call me brother. My deceased parents didn't give birth to a son like you for no reason."
