Hear this!

Stop the carriage immediately!

"Xu..."

"Master, this..."

Zhou Yuming looked at Jiang Luoluo and said, "Let's go and take a look!"

At this time, the neighbor who reported the news had already run to Wu Sheng's house!

"Brother Wu Sheng! Your mother was almost beaten to death by them in the Qian family!"

Wu Sheng was instantly panicked!

The hand holding the cane loosened due to excessive tension, and asked in disbelief: "What are you talking about?! Didn't my mother go to make a bet today?"

"Oh! Yes!"

The neighbor slapped his thighs!

"But Qian Jin turned his back on us and refused to acknowledge the marriage! Your mother went up to argue with them and was beaten by his servants!"

"You should go and have a look! It's getting late now, and I'm afraid someone might die!"

Wu Sheng raised his leg and was about to run outside, but he forgot that his other leg was broken. He instantly lost his balance and fell heavily to the ground!

The Qian family runs two shops and their financial situation is better than his own.

At this moment, I am afraid that I have regretted it because I have no hope of passing the exam...

Wu Sheng clenched his hands and pounded the ground helplessly! Once again, he hated himself so much! He couldn't even protect his loved ones...

Just when he was in despair, a pair of strong hands pulled his arms and lifted him up!

"Mr. Zhou? Mrs. Zhou? Why are you back?" Wu Sheng could not hide his surprise.

"Don't panic, we'll go with you."

As he said this, he helped Wu Sheng into the carriage.

Although they are called neighboring villages, they are actually just two streets apart.

By the time they arrived at the Qian family's door, three layers of people had already surrounded the door!

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Mother! Mother..." Wu Sheng struggled to make his way through the crowd with the help of a crutch.

I saw Granny Wu collapsed on the ground, her dress, which had been standing at attention in the morning, now covered with yellow mud.

The Qian Jin couple were pointing at her and cursing at her!

"A toad wants to eat swan meat?! What kind of person is this! How dare you touch my Chuntao! Why don't you find a puddle to look at yourself and see what kind of person you are now!"

Qian Jin crossed his arms across his chest, looking very proud!

Madam Qian stepped forward and said condescendingly, "Wu family, don't blame us for being cruel. Your Wu Sheng, what else can he do besides studying?"

"Now that he is disabled, he can't take the imperial examination! My Chuntao has never touched water since she was a child. You can't let her marry into your family and cook soup!"

Mrs. Qian walked into the crowd and said, "Fellow villagers, please give us your opinions. Which good family is willing to push their daughter into the fire pit?!"

Wu Sheng now can’t carry anything on his shoulders or lift anything with his hands. He is a complete useless person!

"We are parting ways amicably now. If you still want to pester me, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

"Besides, my Chuntao has already been engaged to the richest man in our village, the eldest son of the Liu family!"

"In the future, you guys...ah..."

Before Mrs. Qian could finish her words, she was pushed away by Wu Sheng who had just arrived!

"Mom! Are you okay?!"

Granny Wu shook her head bitterly.

"Sheng'er, my poor Sheng'er..."

The fame is gone... and the marriage is gone...

What will her Sheng'er do from now on...

"Huh! Who did I think it was?" Mrs. Qian staggered after being pushed!

"You cripple! How dare you push me?! You still think you are the respected young master Wu!"

Wu Sheng turned around! His originally gentle face was full of frost!

"If you want to break off the engagement, then break off the engagement. Why do you have to ask about beating my mother in public?!"

Mrs. Qian was frightened by his appearance and stepped back, hiding behind Qian Jin.

"Boy! It's a good thing you're here, let's talk about it all today!"

"The verbal engagement between me and your father is hereby annulled. From now on, please stop pestering me! Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy today!"

Wu Sheng and his mother supported each other and stood up.

"Retreat if you want! Master Qian has lofty ambitions, and Wu Sheng... can't catch up!"

Qian Jin, who was not well-educated, did not understand the sarcasm in Wu Sheng's words.

"Sheng'er! You can't agree to this!"

Granny Wu hurriedly stopped him.

"Our family has that condition, and now you are... If you agree, how are you going to live in the future..."

"Mother! Why force it? Even if we don't agree today, what's the point of forcing the marriage and then bumping into each other in the future?"

"It's better to just let go! The sky is high and the sea is vast, a real man will never have trouble finding a wife!!"

Qian Jin and his wife looked at Wu Sheng as if he were a clown!

"Master Liu is right! Scholars are useless!"

"You're just talking big! You can't make a penny from all that talk! It's all just empty talk!"

Mrs. Qian's honest words were like a sharp sword, piercing Wu Sheng's heart!

He wanted to refute, but he found that what others said was true...

Wu Sheng laughed at himself, and the only light left in his eyes dimmed instantly...

"Mom, let's go..."

Granny Wu suddenly grabbed his arm!

"Sheng'er, are you really going to agree to this?!"

Madam Qian said proudly: "Wu family, we are not discussing this with you! You have to agree whether you agree or not!"

Granny Wu felt distressed when she saw Wu Sheng’s resolute look.

He said loudly, "Okay! Let's withdraw! I agree!"

"But! Since you want to withdraw! Then let's settle the account! Clearly!"

Grandma Wu’s passionate words immediately made Qian Jin and his wife feel guilty!

"When I made the agreement, Sheng'er and his wife gave you a token, a lotus jade pendant! That is the jade pendant passed down from our Wu family, and it is for our future daughter-in-law! Since you are breaking off the engagement, please ask Mr. Qian and Madam Qian... to come back!"

"What jade pendant?!" Mrs. Qian immediately retorted!

"What nonsense are you talking about! It was just a verbal agreement back then! There was no token of love!"

The couple had already asked someone to look at the jade pendant. It had a soft color and excellent texture. It was said to be worth more than five hundred taels of silver!

Now that it's in my hands, how can I possibly give it back?

Wu Sheng's father died early, and now only they and his widowed mother are left. It's easy to deal with them!

It was obvious that Qian Jin and his wife wanted to cheat.

Wu Sheng said: "The jade pendant is an heirloom of my Wu family! If you want to steal it, I don't mind fighting to the death! Let's meet in court!"

"You little brat! You're so brave! If I say no, it means no!"

"You dare to threaten me at my doorstep?!"

Qian Jin said angrily: "Someone come! Beat him up!"

In just a moment, the Qian family's servants surrounded the mother and son again!

"You ungrateful bastards! Beat them? Beat them until they change their ways!"

The neighbors around were also angry but dared not say anything, because the Qian family relied on their rich money to bully the village.

Now that he has married into the Liu family, the richest family, he has joined forces. I’m afraid no one in the surrounding villages dares to mess with him!

Just when the servant was about to attack Granny Wu and her son again!

Suddenly a cry came out, stopping them!

"stop!"

Jiang Luoluo suddenly shouted!

Everyone's eyes instantly turned to her, and a figure silently entered the Qian family...
