Liu Ruyi came to Mrs. Jiang's room and saw her reclining on the couch, and two little girls were drowsily beating her back.

Seeing Liu Ruyi come in, one of them gently pushed the old lady and said:

"Old lady, the lady is here."

Mrs. Jiang heard the girl calling her, and then with the girl's help, she sat up from the couch.

She looked at Liu Ruyi standing in front of her and said:

"Ruyi, now is not the time to say hello. What do you want to do when you come to my place?"

Liu Ruyi's face was full of smiles. She came to the old lady in a flattering manner and said:

"Old madam, Ms. Cui from Duke Liu's mansion is here. She wants to cancel the marriage that the two families had arranged earlier. Please let me tell you that her daughter is not willing to marry Jiang Chen. But her daughter-in-law cannot make the decision in these matters. , I will come in and ask the old lady for instructions."

After hearing this, the old lady looked up at Liu Ruyi, sighed and said:

"Youdao has a sycamore tree at home, so that the golden phoenix can fly. No wonder people come to the door to break off the engagement. Who makes Jiang Chen a fool? But Liu Mansion is also a bit too snobbish. Jiang Chen's mother and son were just kicked out At the door of the house, the Liu family is about to come and break off the engagement. Although Jiang Chen is still so stupid and annoying, the Liu family didn't just know that he has this stupid disease. They haven't said about breaking off the engagement for more than ten years. , could it be because Jiang Chen still has a title? Now that he knows that his title is gone, he immediately wants to cancel the marriage. The Liu family really doesn't even pretend. Having said that, Jiang Chen, he No matter how stupid or bad he is, he is still a descendant of the Jiang family and the son of Jiang Xiaotian. When the marriage was originally arranged, it was made by Liu Guogong and your father-in-law. Go and tell that Cui family. Just say that the Liu family wants to cancel the engagement. Okay, let Duke Liu Guo come to talk to me in person. I don’t see how he can talk to me. Go ahead and tell Mrs. Cui of the Liu Mansion about breaking off the engagement. Without Duke Liu Guo coming in person, I won’t. promise."

Liu Ruyi was in the front hall and had a kiss with Ms. Cui. She felt that she was now the mistress of the Jiang Mansion and what she said still had weight with the old lady, so she dared to accept the matter.

She never expected that the old lady was a face-conscious person, and she couldn't accept being approached to break off the engagement.

Although she said she hated Li Susu and her son, at this critical moment, she still defended that fool from her heart.

In her heart, a ball of anger and a sour feeling of jealousy immediately arose, which made her feel particularly uncomfortable.

She originally thought that Li Susu and her son had no status in the old lady's place.

And the old lady's sincerity to hand over the management of the Hou Mansion to her shows that she has a heavy weight in the old lady's heart.

But he had not left a good impression on the old lady before. He wanted to use his own efforts to run the Marquis Mansion well so that the old lady would look at her differently.

But now it seems that Li Susu and her son have no sense of existence in the old lady's heart.

She was rejected by the old lady, thinking that she would not be able to explain to Ms. Cui in the front hall.

Just wanting to convince her again, I cautiously said to the old lady:

"Old madam, you also know that this coward is not sweet. If her daughter doesn't want to marry Jiang Chen, she, the mother, can't force her to marry her. What if this child's character is even more stubborn? If something happens then, we won’t be able to clean up the mess.”

After listening to the old lady, not only was she not moved by her words, she even said to her angrily:

"The marriage here is originally done by the parents or the matchmaker. Now this Cui family has ignored the ancestral etiquette and the face of our Jiang family. She came to the house to cancel the engagement in a grand manner. Has she considered the feelings of our Hou family? Although Jiang Chen Just because her mother was kicked out of the Hou Mansion, it doesn't mean that he is no longer a member of the Jiang family. Ruyi, go and tell her that someone who needs to tie the bell needs to be tied to the ring. As long as Liu Guogong comes to the door in person and tells me, their Liu Mansion will cancel the engagement. Without saying a word, I immediately returned the engagement post to him. Go tell Mr. Cui what I said, and just say that it was me who said it. I will do what I say and will never break my promise."

After the old lady finished speaking, seeing that Liu Ruyi had no intention of getting up, she said to her again:

"Didn't you hear what I said? Why haven't you moved yet? Do you want me to go to the front hall to tell her these words in person? Have you taken what I said to heart and gone quickly?"

Liu Ruyi had to stand up under the old lady's scolding.She said to the old lady:

"Old madam, my daughter-in-law will tell Mrs. Cui what you said. In fact, Mrs. Cui is quite smart. She had already thought that the old madam would have such a reaction. She also prepared another plan. She told me that in case of If the old lady doesn't agree to break off the engagement, she has another way to solve the problem. She said that their Liu family also has a concubine who is not only as beautiful as a flower, but also went to a private school and is knowledgeable and polite. Just to see if she can Marry a concubine from the Liu Mansion in place of Liu Hanyan. They are all daughters of the Liu Mansion anyway. This way, they only need to change their birthdays, and there is no need to break off the engagement. Old Madam, in fact, I think the Liu Mansion is sincere enough. . That Liu Hanyan really doesn’t want to marry Jiang Chen. I think this is a solution that has both ends. It’s much better than marrying someone and then losing his life. Madam, I’d better think about it again.”

The old lady sighed and said:

"It's ridiculous, Ms. Cui doesn't want her daughter to marry Jiang Chen that much. In fact, Jiang Chen's child, apart from being a little stupid, doesn't have any major problems. I cruelly drove their mother and son out of the house, which is already very shameful. He is dead. When he was young, he was also a treasure that I held in my hands and grew up in. Who would have thought that God would not open his eyes, and how could I, a good and good grandson, turn into a stupid boy? Now he has a lot of destiny. I was involved in the Li family's surrender to the enemy. Not only did I take away his title, but I also cruelly drove him to the countryside. I originally thought that after the Li family's turmoil came to an end, I would give him a chance. The marriage is done. I don’t expect him to show off his family name. I just hope that after he leaves the Hou Mansion, he can marry a wife and have children normally like ordinary people, and live an ordinary life. After all, it is not a life given to him by God. Such happiness, who knew he didn’t even have such a little blessing, this child’s life would be too pitiful.”

After hearing what the old lady said, Liu Ruyi felt very uncomfortable.She originally thought that the old lady also disliked Jiang Chen very much, but she did not expect that she still felt guilty and pity for Jiang Chen in her heart.

It seems that cutting the grass without eradicating the roots will still be a big hidden danger in the future.

At this moment, Jiang Yingxue walked in. After meeting her grandmother first, she said to Liu Ruyi:

"Mother, why haven't you gone over yet? Madam Liu is waiting impatiently in the living room. She asked me to come over and hurry you up to see what the situation is like here."
