191 Entanglement

Seeing that no one else responded, Mrs. Luo was silent for a moment before continuing, “As for the third option, if I’m not mistaken, they should be here soon!

The reason the Wang family treated you like this was that they wanted to use the rape as a way to force our family to establish ties with them!

Actually, it’s not because of our family, but because of our relationship with Gu Erlang and Madam Liu!

I’ve thought about it just now. If you don’t choose the first two options, there’s probably only this third option. We’ll wait for the Wang family to apologize and propose marriage.

If you marry him, this matter can be suppressed!

However, if you choose this path, I’ll let Erlang leave the army and will forsake the military household position! More importantly, we’ll cut off contact with Gu Erlang and Madam Liu from now on.

“Our family was set up by the Wang family because we weren’t careful enough. It’s fine if we suffer the consequences, but there’s no reason to implicate others!”

This time, after Mrs. Luo finished speaking, Mr. Fang, who had been silent, nodded and replied, “Yes, I’ve discussed this with your mother after we returned!

We should not harm others!

Gu Erlang and his wife have done their best for our family. We’ve already taken advantage of them. If you really get married to the Wang family, trouble will probably come one after another in the future!

Therefore, it’s better to cut off ties in advance!”

“But we can just refuse to trouble Gu Erlang and the others in the future. There’s no need to really cut ties with them, right?!” Fang Erlang said to his mother. He had no objection to leaving the army. What he couldn’t bear to part with was their friendship with Gu Erlang.

He had learned a lot from him during this period of time!

He was really reluctant to give up just like that.

“Gu Erlang and his wife are kind people. If we get pestered by the Wang family, will they stay out of it?! If they help once, the Wang family will keep pushing their luck!

They’re good people and are willing to help us, but we can’t take it for granted!

Therefore, it’s better to cut off ties in advance!”

As Mrs. Luo and the others were talking, before Fang Rui’er could respond, Old Madam Wang asked tentatively, “Is Madam Fang around?!”

Mrs. Luo glanced at her family and gave them a look. After they calmed down, she turned around and replied, “What’s the matter?!”

“The Wang family’s madam is here! She said that she has something to discuss with your family.” Old Madam Wang stammered. To be honest, she was really too embarrassed to pass the message.

Thinking of Wang Shunye’s shameless and dirty deeds, if she were Rui’er’s biological mother, she would probably want to stab him to death. How could she agree to let him marry her daughter?!

Wasn’t this pushing Rui’er into a dead end?!

But…

Thinking of the half piece of silver she had just put in her pocket, Old Madam Wang suppressed the disgust in her heart and said to Mrs. Luo with a smile, “It’s better to resolve enmity than to keep a grudge. In the future, you guys will see each other often. There should be an explanation for this. Madam Fang, what do you think?!”

“What’s there to think about? Does the Wang family want to skin that bastard alive to apologize to my child?!”

Mrs. Luo snorted and raised her voice as she said angrily, “If they can’t do it, there’s nothing to talk about!”

“Calm down. I brought my bastard here to apologize to you!”

In less than a moment, Wang Ge lifted the curtain and squeezed in from the outside.

“We’re all mothers. I know you blame my son for ruining Rui’er’s reputation!

However, wasn’t this because Shunye really liked Rui’er so much that he couldn’t help himself?!

I know you’re upset that stopped you at my tent.

But I was really doing this for your and Rui’er’s sake!

There were so many people watching at that time. If things really blew up, wouldn’t Rui’er’s reputation suffer?!

In such a short period of time, it has already spread throughout the camp!”

Wang Ge couldn’t help but glance at Fang Rui’er, who was still sitting at the side in a daze. It was as if she wasn’t a living person, but a chicken that had already been caged by her.

“So what?! We’ll reach the base in a few days! How many chances will we have to meet again in the north?!”

Mrs. Luo snorted. She pretended not to hear Wang Ge’s provocation.

“That’s right. The north is such a big place, so how can rumors be hidden?! Sister Luo, I know that Shunye was a little rash previously, but he’s sincerely in love with Rui’er!

I’ve already brought him here today. He’s kneeling outside!

“Sister, calm down. Shunye is a kind-hearted child. He really likes Rui’er! Now that things have come to this, why don’t we let them be together?!”

Wang Ge didn’t feel ashamed by Mrs. Luo’s retort. She still smiled and actually mentioned marriage.

“In your dreams! Who does Shunye think he is? He ruined my sister’s reputation, yet he wants to marry her?!” The Fang family’s second son wasn’t a good-tempered person to begin with. Previously, because of his mother’s instructions, he had barely suppressed the anger in his heart. Now that he heard Wang Ge’s words, how could he tolerate it? He jumped up, pointed at Madam Wang, and scolded, “None of the Wang family members are good! I’d rather my sister stay single for the rest of her life. I’ll support her for the rest of her life than let her marry into the Wang family!”

“Erlang, you’re too childish!” As if she had expected the Fang family to reject her, Wang Ge wasn’t fazed at all. She smiled and said, “Which woman doesn’t get married?!

If your sister stays at home for a day or two, you can take care of her, but what if time passes?! When you marry a wife, will you still prioritize her like now?!

“Alright, let’s suppose that the woman you married is virtuous and open-minded. She can tolerate her sister-in-law staying at home forever, but if there’s a dispute in the future, will you protect your wife or your sister?!”
