Chapter 688: Responsible, what does she see in you?
"Wang family, are you guys done yet?" Yao Dongdong became more and more impatient when he saw his wife was angry.
"It's not over yet! Today, you must be responsible for my sister! She is pregnant with your child, you can't be so heartless!"
"You want me to marry her as my second wife? Impossible!"
"Hey! You brat! You don't want to accept my toast, so you have to drink the wine for punishment! You bullied my sister, and you dare to find fault here? I will teach you a lesson!"
The man grabbed Yao Dongdong and was about to attack him.
"Stop it!" Yao Qingnian scolded, and then said to them: "It has already happened, it's useless to beat him to death, and you have also seen that my brother already has a wife and has given birth to two sons for the Yao family. Now you suddenly let him marry your sister as a co-wife. Not to mention that my sister-in-law disagrees, even my parents will not agree.
Now I give you two choices. First, you can marry into our Yao family, but you can only be a concubine. Second, we will give you mental damages, and you can decide whether to keep the child or not."
"Qing Nian, do you have to marry her?" He couldn't even handle Guo, and if there was Wang Zhenzhu, how could he live a good life?
"So do you have a better idea than this?"
"No!" Yao Dongdong shut his mouth obediently.
"Then don't say anything." Yao Qingnian glared at him and then said, "Wang family, what have you considered?"
"No! I don't agree! My sister was bullied, and you just want to get rid of her like this!" Wang Zhenzhu's brother disagreed.
"Then think it through before coming back to us." Yao Qingnian didn't want to waste any more time with them. He said this expressionlessly and prepared to turn around and leave.
"I agree! I agree to marry Dongdong as a concubine. As long as I can give my child a home, it doesn't matter if I suffer a little grievance." Wang Zhenzhu wiped her tears.
"Okay, since you agree, let's go back first. We also have to go back and discuss it with our parents. Marriage is no joke." After Yao Qingnian said this, he took Yao Dongdong home first.
When they got home, Guo was packing her things and crying, saying she wanted to go back to her parents' home. No matter how Yao Dongdong persuaded her, she would not listen. Yao Qingnian spoke up, "Sister-in-law, the matter has not been clarified yet, don't be sad yet. Brother, let me ask you, have you done anything to Wang Zhenzhu? Think about it carefully. I think what happened today was too sudden. I'm afraid it's not that simple."
"I... I'm not sure now. I only know that I drank two glasses of wine that day and got drunk. When I woke up, I found myself at Wang's house. Wang Zhenzhu even cooked a sobering soup for me." Yao Dongdong said distressedly.
"Qingnian, you heard it all. He himself is not sure, which means it is true. No! I want to divorce him. If he marries another one, how are we going to live?" Guo wailed.
"Why did you start drinking with her?" Yao Qingnian asked puzzledly.
"I usually go to Wangjia Village to collect beans. As time goes by, I get to know everyone in the village, especially Wang Zhenzhu, who is easy to talk to. Every time I go there, she can't help but pull me aside to talk a few words. I see that she is a woman and has no ill intentions, so I don't think much about it. I always talk to her a few more words when I go there. That day I was thirsty and wanted to ask her for some water. She said she had just brewed some wine and it was just right for me to quench my thirst. I didn't want to offend her, so I sat down and drank a few glasses. Unexpectedly, I got drunk and slept for more than an hour. When I woke up, I felt a little embarrassed and said sorry to Wang Zhenzhu. She didn't show any abnormality, and I didn't find anything wrong, so I didn't think much about it and left after I woke up."
"So, you don't even know what happened at that hour?"
"I just remember getting drunk and taking a nap. I really don't know what happened while I was asleep. But, sister, I can be sure that I didn't touch her, because... because if I did anything to her, my body would definitely have a reaction. But I clearly remember that day. After I woke up, I didn't feel anything except a little dizziness." Yao Dongdong said affirmatively.
"Wang Zhenzhu is so old and still not married. Is there something wrong?" Yao Qingnian frowned. People in ancient times got married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and Wang Zhenzhu is already twenty-six or twenty-seven.
"When she reached a certain age, the matchmaker came to her house and proposed several marriages for her, but none of them worked out. Later, she said that her uncle was paralyzed in bed, and if she got married, she would be worried because no one would take care of her uncle. So, she simply said that she didn't want to get married, and the matchmaker gave up the idea. People praised her for being affectionate and righteous. She became a good story for not getting married to take care of her paralyzed uncle. Because of this, I also looked up to her and felt that such a kind-hearted woman would not have any bad intentions."
"So that's how it is. What about today? You said she ran out and hugged you on her own?" Yao Qingnian looked at him suspiciously.
"Yes! I am really wronged today! She suddenly ran out of the house, said there was a mouse, and then hugged me. Her brother happened to see it, and I couldn't explain myself even if I was right." She clearly said there was a mouse, and she ran out to hug me in desperation, but her brother had someone catch her, and she didn't say a word to defend herself in front of everyone.
"Based on what happened today, the brother and sister came prepared. They arrested you today and accused you of flirting with Wang Zhenzhu. Wang Zhenzhu did not refute them and allowed them to slander you in public.
If you really did something to Wang Zhenzhu that day, why didn't she say anything at the time, but came to you after such a long time and announced in public that she was pregnant with your child?
This kind of thing is not something that can be done openly and honestly. Others would like to hide it, but she said it out loud in front of so many people." Yao Qingnian analyzed.
"Sister, what do you mean?"
"This matter is too strange."
"Since there is something wrong, why did you agree to let me take her as my concubine?"
"I'm just stalling for time. I'm using this time to find out the truth of the matter. Otherwise, do you want to keep wasting time with them?"
"You're right, what should we do now?"
"Of course you have to make sure the child is yours. If it is, then it is not too much to ask you to take responsibility. If it is not, then it will be even easier."
"Good sister, you must help me." Yao Dongdong pleaded.
"I'm wondering too. Wang Zhenzhu is pretty, so why is she targeting you? What does she like about you? You have a wife and children. She can find anyone else who is better than you. Could it be that... the child is really yours?" Yao Qingnian said indifferently.
