Chapter 244 Both sides hurt (plus more)
As soon as Li Qingwen's words came out, Qi Hongling's reputation was ruined.
Qi Hongling, who would attract countless admiring eyes to follow him from a distance as soon as he showed his face, suddenly turned into a street rat with strange eyes and covering his nose with his hands wherever he went.
This is not the most serious thing. The most serious thing is that because of Li Qingwen's rumor, Qi's daughter became a laughing stock in Jeju.
Qi's tutor was suspected. Among Qi Hongling's cousins, one who was already engaged was immediately withdrawn by her husband's family. Several of them were negotiating marriage, and the husband's family also changed their minds overnight.
Qi Hongling, who had been reclusive since Heli, was the last to know about this matter.
Her parents, brother and sister-in-law apologized to the tribe everywhere, but they always protected her very well.
If it wasn't for her cousin who was divorced from her marriage in shame and anger, she almost hanged herself directly, and her cousin's aunt who loved her daughter came to the house crying and making trouble, Qi Hongling might have to wait until the dust settles to find out.
She knelt on the ground, lowered her eyebrows and let her auntie cry and criticize her, but she quickly analyzed the useful information in her mouth in her mind.
When her aunt left crying, she had a calm face, and her mother, whose eyes were swollen from crying, helped her up.
Then, she fought back against Li Qingwen.
Before Li Shi realized the seriousness of the matter and sent someone to apologize and put pressure on the Qi family, Qi Hongling found the manuscripts she had saved in the past few years.
Then, relying on her excellent memory, she also silently wrote the poems Li Qingwen wrote on the paper.
Comparing the two, regardless of whether they are superior or inferior, Qi Hongling also wrote an article with sharp words and justified evidence to ridicule Li Qingwen not only for his ignorance, but also for his small belly and vicious thoughts.
Li Qingwen is one of the most promising descendants of the Li family. If it wasn't for his bad public affairs and low EQ, he might not have achieved much as an official. can be removed directly.
Such a family member, of course Li must do his best to protect him. However, when they had just made preparations to protect themselves, before they had time to take action, Qi Hongling, who had a strong heart, had already stepped forward to expose Li Qingwen's background_(:з」∠)_
She posted the poems written by herself and Li Qingwen in the past, as well as the article she wrote to expose the truth, outside a large library in Jeju that often held poetry and cultural conferences.
This is not over yet, in order to prove that gold is not afraid of fire, Qi Hongling also set up a table there, waiting for Li Qingwen to come and compete with her after receiving the letter of challenge sent to her door.
Li Qingwen never dreamed that Qi Hongling, who is usually gentle and dignified, would be so crazy. He kicked the table and chairs to vent his anger, while anxiously thinking about how to gain the upper hand in this matter.
He knows the family's plans and arrangements for his future, and he also knows that it is more suitable for him to be a celebrity than an official, so he has always attached great importance to his reputation.
In addition, he has been sought after all the time, and it has become a habit to be the only one in the world. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't make up a nonsense to slander Qi Hongling just because others guessed whether he was "not good".
Now that Qi Hongling is recklessly launching revenge on him, Li Qingwen knows that if this matter is not handled properly, then he will no longer be the Li Qingwen who only has a good reputation.
Even if he can still become famous under the operation of the family, when others talk about him, their evaluation of him will definitely be mixed.
This was unacceptable to both Li Qingwen and the Li clan, but the Li clan chose to hit the vital point directly and deal with it softly, using the patriarch of the Qi clan to force Qi Hongling to compromise.
However, because Li Qingwen resented Qi Hongling for ruining his reputation, after this incident, as long as he got the chance, he would mock her in front of others, belittle her, and leak some hard-to-distinguish rumors based on his previous relationship with her. The so-called "secret".
This kind of dog-skin plaster that won't let you go even after reconciliation, insists on provocation every now and then, and makes it his life's work to disgust you, harass you, and make you unhappy is very disgusting and quite tasteless, but there will never be a shortage in this world Someone who is interested in his disgusting, tasteless taste, and can deeply empathize with him.
Qi Hongling is a good lady, but because of Li Qingwen and his cronies, he was forced to become one of the protagonists of the **** and negative news in Jeju City.
The rumor spreaders don’t care whether Qi Hongling is having a good life or whether the rumors will make her unable to live. They just want to spread the gossip they have heard, plus their own assumptions and speculations.
Qi Hongling suffered a lot from it, but the patriarch of the Qi clan suppressed Qi Hongling's parents for the sake of the so-called overall situation, preventing them from seeking justice for Qi Hongling.
In order not to involve the young nieces in the family, and to prevent her father, mother and uncle's family from fighting against each other because of her affairs, Qi Hongling insisted on moving out of her natal home in the third month of her divorce and moved into her own dowry house.
But even so, Li Qingwen still didn't intend to let Qi Hongling go.
Qi Hongling took care of her own dowry shop, so he really named her by name, and scolded Qi Hongling that although she wore the skin of a talented woman, her body smelled of copper in her bones.
Qi Hongling went to his dowry village to check the accounts, collect rent, and live there for a while, so he wrote a short story to satirize Qi Hongling's disobedience to women, and went out of the city to meet privately.
Qi Hongling donated porridge and donated medicine to do good deeds, and he mocked Qi Hongling in a weird way because he couldn't keep his name and reputation, so he thought of relying on doing good deeds to accumulate virtue and get the name of benevolence.
Qi Hongling adopted those orphaned girls, took in those poor girls who were driven to nowhere by their natal or husband's families, taught them skills, and gave them a safe place to live. Li Qingwen framed her as a dirty business with half-closed doors in the name of doing good.
Being held so tightly by others, Qi Hongling naturally had an uneasy life, but the one who was more uncomfortable and angrier than her was the second elder of the Qi family who was oppressed by the head of the Qi family and could not stand up for his daughter.
Qi Hongling's father seemed to have aged twenty years in just a few years, and Qi Hongling's mother was sick almost every day. Many people were ridiculed and bullied because of this.
Qi Hongling, who originally only wanted to get together with Li Qingwen, hated Li Qingwen very much. The couple who were once envied by everyone turned against each other completely after they divorced.
After hearing Yang Xiaotao finish talking about the entanglement between Qi Hongling and Li Qingwen, Ye Anlan couldn't help but frown tightly, and she asked Yang Xiaotao, "From what you say, this Li Qingwen is a direct descendant of the Li family of Jeju? "
Yang Xiaotao nodded, "That's right, he is the youngest son of Li's second wife."
Ye Anlan asked again, "What benefits did the Li family give to the Qi family?"
