Chapter 8 break off an engagement

Chapter 8 Breaking off the Engagement

 At night.

Mrs. Xu stayed up all night, standing at the gate and looking at the Xu Mansion a few streets away.

The fire was soaring into the sky over there, and the wailing could be faintly heard.

“Madam, it’s okay.” Dengzhi held his wife’s hand and found that her hands were cold and her whole body was trembling.

 Xu's lips turned purple, her figure trembled slightly, and it took a while before she squeezed out a few words from her throat.

"Just a little bit...just a little bit..." Just a little bit, the Xu family is doomed.

 Fortunately, she heard Chao Chao’s voice.

Her dynasty is the treasure given to her by God.

 As the sky gradually grew brighter, Mrs. Xu moved stiffly.

 Dengzhi hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

"Is the Marquis back?" Mrs. Xu looked pale and a little weak.

Dengzhi shook his head: "Master Hou stayed away all night."

Xu held Dengzhi's hand, closed her eyes, and suppressed the fear and doubt in her eyes.

She didn't dare to think about whether the Marquis had any hand in this matter.

 “Madam, I found out.”

"Last night, the imperial army turned the Xu family upside down and dug up blood letters under the crooked neck tree outside the madam's boudoir. At this moment, Mr. Xu was already kneeling outside the imperial study room to listen to the trial." Yingxue walked in a hurry, As soon as the curfew was over, I rushed over to inquire about the news.

Yingxue and Juexia, the two maids, were a little worried.

  But seeing that the lady’s face seemed to be a little more relaxed, she looked up again and found that the lady was still frowning. She probably saw it wrong.

Xu pursed her lips tightly and said no more.

She was on pins and needles all day long. After marrying Lu Yuanze, she gradually lost her backbone and became dependent on him.

 She gave birth to children for him, washed his hands and made soup for him. She has long lost the edge of the talented girl in Kyoto back then.

 Even her family members who loved her the most were abandoned.

There was a hint of bitterness in the corner of Xu's mouth.

She sent someone to invite Lu Yuanze, but Lu Yuanze never returned home.

 She actually wanted to give Lu Yuanze a chance, a chance to confess. But Lu Yuanze never even came back.

 Sitting there till evening.

 The concierge came in a hurry to report.

"Madam, someone from the Jiang family is here." Mrs. Xu stood up suddenly.

The Jiang family is the family who is engaged to their eldest son, Lu Yanshu.

  It may be bad if someone comes to the Jiang family at this time.

The Jiang family and the Lu family were both founding heroes. The Jiang family was a literary scholar, and their descendants were striving for success. This generation sat in the position of the third-rank minister of Dali Temple.

As for the Lu family, who was a martial artist, Lu Yuanze was born weak in literature, so he had no choice but to follow the path of literature. Over the years, he has been neither getting better nor worse.

 Fortunately, I was able to make progress by marrying the Xu family.

 But compared to the Jiang family, it is still a little worse.

"Back then Mr. Yanshu was quite talented and well-known, and they came to arrange their own baby bride." Dengzhi changed Mrs. Xu's clothes and saw that Mrs. Xu was more energetic before helping her out. Mrs. Xu paused: "Hold Chaochao."

The little Chao Chao has been around for forty days, and now it is growing as if it is blowing air, and is round and plump, with a small face that makes everyone smile, and makes me feel happy just looking at it.

When Mrs. Xu went to the front hall, Mrs. Jiang had been sitting with a sullen face for a long time.

There is also a tray on the table, covered with a red cloth.

Xu’s steps paused slightly.

"Sister Xu, I haven't seen you for a long time, and your sister Man Yuejiu has never been here. I really feel guilty." Mrs. Jiang sighed, with a shrewd look on her face.

She was really optimistic about Lu Yanshu back then, but who knew that he would become a cripple, unable to take care of himself, and would go crazy.

After so many years of delay, now that the Xu family is also in jail, she has no worries anymore.

"Our two families are as close as one family. How can I blame the Jiang family." Mrs. Xu said with a smile.

 Mrs. Jiang looked slightly stunned.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and was silent for a moment before saying, "Sister Xu, we don't talk secretly. I'm afraid the marriage in Yanshu will be abandoned."

Xu's face fell.

"Yanshu is living like a ghost now. He is not worthy of my Yun Jin. Yun Jin is the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family, how can she marry a cripple! This marriage should have been canceled long ago." Mrs. Jiang glanced at Mrs. Xu At a glance, the Xu family today is no better than before.

 The Xu family was imprisoned, and Lu Yanshu was disabled, so he had no qualms about withdrawing from the family.

 “You!” Mrs. Xu was so angry that her chest hurt.

“Isn’t it because of Yun Jin that the inkstone fell into the water?” Mrs. Xu gritted her teeth.

 Her extremely intelligent inkstone was the result of Jiang Yunjin becoming like that!

Jiang Yunjin fell into the water, Yanshu jumped into the water to save others, and Jiang Yunjin was saved.

 But her inkstone had been submerged in the water for a long time, and it could no longer be saved.

  Every time Mrs. Xu thought of this incident, her heart ached greatly, and she spent countless nights filled with hatred.

Mrs. Jiang looked a little ugly: "My Yun Jin is your legitimate daughter, how can you marry a disabled person? Besides, Yun Jin didn't let him save him, he jumped by himself! This marriage should have been withdrawn a long time ago, and my son will have a bad reputation!" That **** in your family should not harm the girl from a good family. Do you want to lose your conscience?"

"He goes crazy and ignores the consequences. He should be imprisoned for the rest of his life. What kind of wife should he marry?"

 “My son is ashamed of being engaged to him. It was all a disgraceful past!”

 “You have to retreat if you don’t want to retreat from this marriage.”

“I don’t agree to break off the engagement!” Ms. Xu’s eyes were red and she gritted her teeth. The inkstone became disabled because of her, but the Jiang family wanted to leave the inkstone behind!

 Her inkstones will be ruined in this life.

Xiao Chaochao stretched out his chubby hands from his swaddling clothes [Back off, back off, beautiful mother, back off quickly...]

  【She has done so much harm to my eldest brother...】

  【After she married her eldest brother, she beat him secretly, made him bark like a dog, drilled his crotch, and made him drink urine. She also took people home and let her eldest brother watch her sleeping with others. Big brother is **** to death...]

Xu's hand holding the tea trembled, her breathing became heavy, and the tea spilled a bit.

Hands were clenched tightly, and the fingernail marks were dug into the flesh.

 A trace of blood spilled from the fingertips.

How much suffering has her children suffered!
