Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 577: Question

No one else needs to know. I will also arrange a guard for each family.”

“That’s fine. Then find an excuse and say that for you to pass the exam smoothly, the entire clan has to abide by the rules. They can’t leave unless something is going on, and they can’t cause trouble outside. They have to endure everything and wait until the exam is over.” Chu Zhiwen felt that this reason could best reflect the importance of his son!

After saying that, he felt proud.

“Father, this is too much…” Chu Heng’s mouth twitched.

“You’re right. How about half a month?” Chu Zhiwen thought for a moment and said.

Chu Heng was speechless. What was the difference?

“I mean, if you say that, aren’t you worried that I won’t be able to pass the exam?” He had never been this high-profile, and he did not like to force others.

“This…” Chu Zhiwen hesitated.

“But now, there’s no good excuse. We’ll have to use your name. However, it’s a blessing. In order for you to pass, our entire clan will pray.” Chu Zhiwen made the decision. Seeing that Chu Heng seemed to have something to say, Chu Zhiwen quickly said, “This is for the sake of the safety of the clansmen. When the matter of the Wang family is resolved, the clansmen will naturally understand. I hope that with the Xie family’s help, Landlord Wang can ask the third daughter of the Wang family to not pursue this matter anymore.” Chu Zhiwen sighed.

“Then let’s go and inform the people in the clan. After all, you need to go to the capital city for the exam.” This matter was supposed to be told to the entire clan, but Chu Zhiwen did not expect the matter to be brought forward.

“Invite the uncles over for dinner,” Chu Heng said.

“I know. Don’t worry.” Chu Zhiwen nodded.

Seeing that the two of them were about to go do their own things, Chu Qingxiang did not expect Chu Heng to not say anything to her from the beginning to the end. Now, it seemed that he had no intention of talking to her at all.

She felt a little depressed. She wanted to say something, but she did not know how to say it. However, when Chu Heng walked to the door, she suddenly stood up and called out, “Third Uncle.”

Chu Heng stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her. “What’s the matter?”

Chu Qingxiang had so many things to say in her heart, but she could not say a single word in an instant. She had never regretted her choice, but now that Chu Heng was ignoring her, she instantly felt ashamed. She could not help but retort, “Third Uncle, don’t you have anything to say to me?”

“No, I don’t,” Chu Heng said faintly.

Chu Qingxiang was provoked by his attitude. She could not help but say the words in her heart, “Do you also think that I’m the one who brought trouble to the family?”.

“Since you know, why ask?”

‘Why? I’m just following Father and Mother’s arrangements and marrying Song Lu,” Chu Qingxiang said unwillingly.

“Are you suggesting that I ask your parents to change your marriage and resolve the Wang family’s matter?” Chu Heng asked.

Chu Qingxiang choked. Her eyes were red and she could not speak. Her fingers dug into her palms, and the pain made her even more unwilling. “The Wang family’s third daughter didn’t care about this matter anymore. It was you who attacked her today, so she’s going to take revenge on the Chu family!”

‘Whatever the consequences of my actions, I will bear them. I hope that you can face your own mistakes. Of course, if you feel more comfortable pushing the blame onto others, you can do so too. However, your matters from now on will have nothing to do with me anymore.”

Chu Qingxiang could no longer hold back her tears. She reached out and grabbed the clothes in front of her chest.. She questioned, “Third Uncle, why are you so unfair to me when you’re so nice to the other juniors?”
