“Yue’er, what did you just say?” After seeing off the Fu family, Mrs. Leng stared at Leng Sa and asked. Leng Sa calmly raised his head to look at him, and asked softly, “Grandfather, is it okay to break off the marriage?”
“Bang!” The crutches in Old Master Leng’s hand slammed heavily on the ground. Both Master Leng and Second Master Leng couldn’t help shaking, but Leng Sa was surprisingly calm. Grandpa Leng looked at her, “Do you know what you’re talking about!” Leng Sa nodded, “I know, it’s not good to break off the marriage now, but it’s not our Leng family’s fault. It’s not as severe as it used to be now, At least…” At least no one will be forced to die because of breaking off the marriage, unless they can’t think of it and don’t want to live.
Even most families don’t do this. Now the daughter who is forced to die in a marriage will not make people feel that the family rules are strict, but it will only make people think that this family is not friendly to people.
The old man Leng sneered, “You think it’s not your fault? It’s not as harsh as it used to be… That’s ordinary people! Go and ask, that big family is willing to marry a girl who has been divorced? And you Those sisters and sisters, your eldest sister and second sister have just been married for a few years, you ask them if they are doing well in their in-laws’ house? And your sisters and nieces! Don’t think that if you study for a few more years, you will be able to develop your skills .”
“What does grandfather mean?”
There was silence in the hall for a while, and then Mrs. Leng said solemnly, “Just now, Dujun Fu said…”
“Old Master!” Er Madam Leng couldn’t help standing up, “This is not good! The eldest young master of the Fu family…” Er Madam had always been a little afraid of this father-in-law, but she had to stand up for her daughter. The old man Leng glanced at her, “You are a woman, what are you talking about?”
Mrs. Leng felt sour in her heart, is her daughter not qualified to say a word more? It is said that it is a new era, but there is no difference in the Leng family, and it is still the words of the old man. If it wasn’t for Yue’er getting engaged to the fourth young master of the Fu family early, Mrs. Leng would not have let her go to school. It was to go to school that Yue’er had tried her best to win with the old man. It was also the one that Grandpa Leng thought women should study, not the college that Yue’er liked.
Leng Mingyue next to the second lady gently held the second lady’s hand and patted her to signal that she should not worry. Let’s also follow… How can there be a reason to hire a younger brother and marry an older brother? It’s too bad to hear it.”
“Is it better to be divorced? Who else has read the engagement letter except Fu Leng’s family?”
“…” Who needs to see this with their own eyes? Didn’t the marriage of the fourth young master of the Fu family and the third young lady of the Leng family spread all over Yongcheng long ago? What does the old man mean, if you don’t admit it, it’s not going to happen for a while? If they don’t admit it, will the people of Yongcheng forget it?
Leng Sa lowered her eyes and said, “I understand what my grandfather meant.”
Old Master Leng’s expression softened a little, “It’s good if you understand, grandfather is also for your own good. Just like Fu Dujun said, wait for this matter in two years… Whatever you want to do, even if you leave Fu. You will not be without support for the rest of your life.”
Leng Sa smiled, “Grandfather, the Leng family could have been cleaned out of this matter, but Fu Si’s shamelessness is his business. What does it have to do with the Leng family? People in Yongcheng in twenty years will remember that the third Miss Leng family was divorced by the Fu family, and she has the cheek to marry the crippled eldest young master.”
“I will handle this matter for you naturally, and I won’t let dirty water splash on you.” Mrs. Leng said.
Leng Sa shook his head, “As my grandfather said, people in the world are stupid. Who cares about your troubles? They will only treat it as an anecdote that has been circulated in Yongcheng for decades.”
Grandpa Leng stared at Leng Sa, “What do you want? If you want to break off the marriage, I advise you to die as soon as possible. The Leng family must not have a daughter who has been broken off, or the four of you will get out together. Cold home!”
“Father?!” Master Leng Er looked at his father with a pale face. He did not expect his father to say such a thing.
Leng Sa nodded, “It’s not that the Leng family can’t have a daughter who has been divorced, but that they can’t lose the Fu family’s in-laws.”
Old Master Leng’s cloudy eyes suddenly turned cold, just like the expression on his face.
“The Leng family has supported you for so many years. I don’t ask you to do anything for the Leng family. At least… I can’t delay the Leng family’s retreat. Second child, do you understand?”
Master Leng Er was sweating profusely and begging with a pale face, “Father, this can’t be done…Isn’t this ruining Yue’er’s life?”
The old man Leng said coldly: “What ruined a lifetime? If you send her to the capital or abroad in two years, she can get married and have children. The eldest of the Fu family can’t be like that now, what do you have to worry about? Ruining a lifetime, what are those girls who were sent to the palace for the sake of their family in the early years and could not be spoiled for the rest of their lives?”
Master Leng Er looked at his father blankly. Be it a husband, a son or a father. My father always said how they were unpopular and how they were scholars, but what is the father talking about now?
Leng Sa sympathetically looked at her father, whose three views were obviously broken, and sighed lightly, “Since my grandfather has already decided, I seem to have to obey.”
“Yue’er?!” Master Leng Er and Er Madam exclaimed in shock.
The expressions of the old man Leng and the eldest man next to him suddenly softened. The eldest man smiled and said, “Yue’er is still sensible. When Dad sent you to college to study, it was really a waste of time.”
Master Leng Er looked at Leng Sa anxiously: “Yue’er, don’t talk nonsense, let’s…”
“Shut up!” Mr. Leng interrupted his son’s words in a cold voice, “Do you want to get out of the Leng family with your family?”
Master Leng Er was speechless. If he really did this, their family would not be able to stay in Yongcheng at all. Today, the world is not very peaceful. If you drag your family away from your hometown, what will you do if you don’t mention the only twelve-year-old son and the frail wife?
“Father…” Master Leng looked at his father pleadingly.
“Dad, don’t worry, I know this in my heart.” Leng Sa said, looking at Mrs. Leng and smiling, “Grandfather, since I agreed, then… let’s discuss the conditions next.”
The hall is silent.
“You want to negotiate terms with me?” Grandpa Leng looked at Leng Mingyue. This granddaughter is outstanding in looks and brains among the girls in the Leng family, but Grandpa Leng never liked her very much. .
He doesn’t remember very well when he was a child, but when he grew up, Leng Mingyue’s respectful appearance always gave Mrs. Leng a sense of alienation and indifference or indifference. This made the old man Leng, who had always been accustomed to being aloof and domineering, very uncomfortable. If Mrs. Fu hadn’t been interested in this girl’s birthday so that she could be engaged to Fourth Young Master Fu, Mrs. Leng would never have allowed her to go to school, and she would have been married off early.
Now, this girl actually said that she wants to negotiate with him? !
Leng Sa slightly pulled the corner of her lower lip, “I sacrificed my reputation and youth to marry into the Fu family, but the benefits are all for others. Shouldn’t we talk about conditions?”
“…”
