Chapter 690: 690: Marriage Deception?

She glanced back at Ms. Wang and couldn’t help but yell angrily.

“Madam In-law, is this your intention to go back on the marriage?”

“No, no! Manager Sun, Manager Sun, where did you hear such words? Please don’t listen to the rumors spread by outsiders!”

Ms. Wang hurriedly shook off the person holding her back, ran forward, and said, “We can talk it out, we can talk it out!”

This statement completely wiped away the last sliver of hope on Di Wei’s face. She tightly clutched Liu Sisi’s clothes, forcing herself not to cry out loud.

Liu Sisi gently patted her hand: “Don’t be afraid! Third Aunt will not let them take you away, be at ease!”

Di Gaoyuan, who was standing by, was still holding Elderly Mr. Di’s legs without letting go. However, the strength in his hands had already loosened, and a few flashes of radiance flickered in his eyes from time to time, as if he was calculating something.

“Madam In-law, please don’t forget that you have taken something from my wife!”

Manager Sun felt a thrill in his heart but showed dissatisfaction on his face.

“Moreover, the betrothal and birthdate information for this marriage have been recorded by the government office. If you really want to break off this marriage, please return the betrothal gifts we gave initially! In addition, compensate us for double the loss suffered by our Young Master, or else, we will meet in court!”

Manager Sun’s words made Ms. Wang shrink back, and as soon as she heard the request to return the betrothal gifts and compensation, her face immediately changed!

“Manager, don’t worry. We will definitely proceed with this marriage, absolutely proceed, it’s just…”

Her gaze swept over Liu Sisi and Elderly Mr. Di, and her anger was obvious.

“Third Sister-in-law! This is our family’s Wei’er’s wedding, please stop causing trouble; otherwise, I will have no choice but to report this to Lord County Magistrate and see what he has to say!”

The County Magistrate of Macheng County had not yet taken up his post, and at the moment, Di Yelei was acting as his temporary replacement. By saying this, Ms. Wang was clearly forcing Liu Sisi to let go.

“Ridiculous! You still dare think of reporting me? The mistakes you have made are enough to keep you in the government office for a few days!”

Liu Sisi suddenly burst out laughing!

Today, she would spare this brainless and hesitant Ms. Wang, and take care of her when she had time later.

Her words made Ms. Wang retract her neck, and she dared not say another word.

“What exactly do you want? You should know that this marriage has already been recorded by the government office…”

Manager Sun realized that today’s matter was unlikely to be resolved.

“What do I want? This question should be asked by me, the Prefecture Princess, to your Sun Family!”

Liu Sisi’s mouth curled up with a bloodthirsty smile: “I haven’t heard of a case that allows a living person to be married to a dead person as a ghost bride through the government office! Which official handled this case? It’s a good opportunity for our Old Master to inquire!”

At Liu Sisi’s words, the faces of those who came to receive the bride changed drastically! Especially Manager Sun’s face, which alternated between turning black, white, and gray.

The relatives and friends who were attending the wedding also changed their faces and began discussing loudly.

“Ghost marriage? What is a ghost marriage? Never heard of it before.”

“What does it mean to marry a living person to a dead person? Isn’t Di Wei supposed to be a child bride?”

“What’s going on? How can this be a ghost marriage? Who was responsible for such an immoral act…”

Ms. Wang and Di Gaoyuan, who were crying next to them, were also startled! The two of them widened their eyes and looked at Liu Sisi.

Di Gaoyuan’s face immediately changed! He jumped up from the ground and pointed at Liu Sisi, yelling angrily!

“What ghost marriage? Don’t talk nonsense and ruin the reputation of our Wei’er!”

Liu Sisi didn’t shrink back at all: “What’s wrong? If you can do it, why are you afraid of us talking about it?”

“Although our Di family’s Wei’er is three years older than Master Sun’s son, my Di family’s daughter would never participate in a ghost marriage! Don’t talk nonsense!” Di Gaoyuan said loudly, with a tone of righteousness.

Slap, slap!

The sound of applause came from behind, and a figure slowly walked up from below.

“Well said! Our Di family’s children would never participate in a ghost marriage!”

The person who arrived was none other than Di Yelei, who had been traveling in a hurry. Behind him, twenty or thirty soldiers accompanied him, slowly ascending the steps from below.

At the moment, Di Yelei wore a dark blue robe, which made his bronze-colored skin shine with a healthy radiance. His facial features were sharp as if sculpted by a knife, with a wide forehead and a pair of thick black sword-like eyebrows slanting upward. Below his tall nose, the corners of his mouth, covered with light stubble, were raised, revealing a set of sparkling white teeth.

Liu Sisi turned her head, made eye contact with Di Yelei, and immediately smiled!

Di Yelei couldn’t help but quicken his pace, taking a few steps to Liu Sisi’s side.

“Is everything alright here?”

“There was nothing wrong initially, but now there’s something.”

Liu Sisi gave a playful smile, raising her eyebrows towards the crowd in the center.

“Dad, Third Brother is back.”

Seeing Elderly Mr. Di in the middle of the scene, Di Yelei quickly took two steps forward and approached him.

“Good, good…”

Elderly Mr. Di sighed heavily and lowered his head without saying anything.

Seeing that Di Gaoyuan was still clinging to Elderly Mr. Di’s legs, a flash of light quickly flickered in Di Yelei’s eyes: “Eh, Second Brother, what are you doing?”

Di Gaoyuan only realized at this moment that he was still holding onto Elderly Mr. Di’s legs. Startled by Di Yelei, he immediately released his hands and retreated several steps back.

“Third Brother, you… you’re back.” He simply couldn’t find anything else to say right now.

“Yes! I’m back!”

Di Yelei glanced at the people who had come to marry off their children and looked back at Liu Sisi: “I hear someone used their power and influence to deceive my niece Di Wei into marriage, is this true?”

“Old Master, it is indeed true. The people who deceived us into the marriage are right here.”

Liu Sisi pointed her finger straight at Manager Sun and the child dressed in the bridegroom’s outfit.

“This person is the housekeeper from the Sun Family of Shangrao County. He used his son to impersonate the young master of the Sun Family, attempting to deceive Xiao Wei with sweet words and smooth talking. Moreover, he wanted to take advantage of our family’s wealth and power to make the situation certain and even registered the two’s birthdate information and marriage certificate at the government office. Old Master, you must not be lenient when dealing with such troublemakers during the trial!”

Manager Sun’s body shook, nearly unable to stand steady.

It’s over!

It seems that this time, he and the others won’t die but will definitely suffer a great deal!

Di Yelei’s face darkened: “How dare you deceive someone into marriage! And, you deceived my niece? Guards! Arrest all of these people and take them back to the county for a detailed examination of this case.”

“Yes, Your Honor!”

The soldiers quickly acted, detaining the entire group who had come for the wedding. In an instant, the once lively Di family had become a scene of people wailing and grieving everywhere.
