Just a few days passed, and Capital City began to buzz with scandalous rumors.
It was said that Meng Xinian's fiancée, with an unknown father and an unwed mother who gave birth to her daughter before disappearing without a trace, wasn't just from a poor mountain village; her uncle was also a convicted rapist, who killed a young and beautiful town schoolteacher, a man of heinous crimes, and had been sentenced already, set to face the firing squad by the end of the month.
With such parents, such a birth, and such relatives, the true nature of Chiang Xiao was indeed questionable.
For Meng Chaojun to have such a daughter-in-law, and such an in-law family, was truly laughable.
Such talk rapidly spread throughout Capital City.
The Meng Family became the butt of everyone's jokes.
Many were waiting to see what kind of scandal or jest Chiang Xiao would cause for the Meng Family in the future.
Old Tang also heard these words.
