Fortunately, I didn't agree.

Although she had agreed to find a way to break off the engagement, Yun Mo had already broken off the engagement once, and her marriage to Young Master Zhao had already been discussed a lot. She didn’t know how she would be criticized if she broke off the engagement. So much unnecessary trouble.

But the Yun family was obviously being targeted, and those people wouldn't stop until they bit off a few pieces of meat.

Shen Wan didn't say much to Mrs. Yun. The two of them walked towards Mrs. Yun's Liushuang Courtyard. From a distance, they saw Yun Mo and Yun Rui coming over. But Yun Mo didn't know what was wrong with her feet. The maid helped her and walked. limping.

Shen Wan asked Mrs. Yun Da, "What's wrong with my cousin's feet?"

Mrs. Yunda shook her head, she didn't know either.

She walked over quickly and asked Yun Mo, "What's wrong with your feet?"

Shen Wan also walked over. When she saw Shen Wan, Yun Mo's delicate face was full of grievances. Shen Wan understood this grievance.

Yun Mo did not return to her mother-in-law, Yun Rui said, "We were playing in the garden just now. The eldest sister heard that Mrs. Chen, the right minister of the Ministry of Etiquette, came to ask for her hand in marriage. She was anxious to go find her grandmother, but she left in a hurry and lost her foot. It’s weird…”

Mrs. Yunda wondered what her daughter was doing in such a hurry. She hated that iron could not make steel, "I can sprain my ankles even when walking. It's really not worry-free at all. What's the point of coming to Liushuangyuan now? I'm going back to get some medicine."

Yun Rui said, "Grandma asked us to come here."

Mrs. Yun’s brows twisted into knots.

No one said anything. They entered Liushuang Courtyard and then walked around the screen into the house. When Mrs. Yun saw Yun Mo being helped in, she said, "What's going on?"

"My ankle is sprained," Yun Mo said matter-of-factly.

Mrs. Yun asked her maid to help Yun Mo sit down quickly.

Shen Wan walked behind. Because he came with Mrs. Yun, no one reported it to Mrs. Yun. When Yun Mo sat down, Mrs. Yun noticed Shen Wan and said in surprise, "Wan'er is here, why is there nothing?" Can anyone tell me?"

Mrs. Yun invited Shen Wan to sit next to her. Shen Wan said, "My eldest cousin went to Mianzhou and said he would come back in ten days. It has been twelve days and there is no news about my eldest cousin. I am not at ease. I came to Yun's house to ask. ask."

Mrs. Yun held Shen Wan's hand and said with a smile, "It's two days late, but your eldest cousin is doing things steadily. Don't worry, he will definitely bring the medicinal materials used by King Ling to treat his legs back to Beijing."

She knew that Shen Wan was worried. She was like this when she married Mrs. Yun a few decades ago. Once she didn't come back on the agreed date, she would feel uneasy.

But business never goes smoothly. There is often either something here that needs to be solved, or there is trouble there that needs to be dealt with. Coupled with the wind and rain, I often say I will come back in a month, but in the last two months I don’t see anyone. , Mrs. Yun has long been used to it.

Compared with Mrs. Yun's calmness, Shen Wan felt that she was agitated and said no more at the moment.

Mrs. Yun waved her hand, and all the maids and ladies in the room withdrew. Mrs. Yun looked at Mrs. Yun puzzledly, what are you going to do alone?

After the maid and the mother-in-law retreated, Mrs. Yun looked at Yunmo Yunrui and said, "Young Master Xu has a bad character. How did you two know?"

Mrs. Yun then remembered that Mrs. Xu had just asked to marry her daughter. Yun Mo's personal maid came in and whispered a few words to Mrs. Li quietly. Mrs. Li whispered a few words in Mrs. Yun's ear. Mrs. Yun She frowned for a while, and her attitude towards Mrs. Xu was not as enthusiastic as before. She thought something happened in the house that affected Mrs. Yun's mood in entertaining guests.

Mrs. Yun Da looked at Yun Mo and said, "Master Xu was promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of Etiquette. Master Xu has learned a lot and has many praises. How did you know that Master Xu has bad character?"

Yun Mo looked at Shen Wan, "I learned about it from my cousin..."

Everyone in the room looked at Shen Wan.

Shen Wan didn't say anything, and Yun Rui said, "A few days ago, my eldest sister and I went to Prince Ling's Mansion to find our cousin. Grandma only allowed us to stay in Prince Ling's Mansion for half an hour. My cousin and we didn't dare to disobey grandma, so we went together. We were shopping, and it happened that there was a lucky pair in the Wangyue Tower. We were all curious. My cousin said there was nothing interesting to see. It was a place set up by Young Master Xu to make him famous in Kyoto and facilitate his marriage proposal. Later it was confirmed that this was indeed the case. My cousin also specifically told Xu that if When my family comes to propose marriage, I can’t agree.”

Mrs. Yunda was just happy that the Vice Minister's wife had taken a liking to her daughter, but now a basin of cold water was poured down on her, chilling her to the core.

Mrs. Yun looked at Shen Wan, "Did you already know that the Xu family would come to propose marriage?"

Shen Wan nodded. She couldn't explain why she knew so much. She could only blame Xie Jingyan for this matter. Shen Wan said, "Although King Ling has not recovered from his leg illness, he is very well-informed. Lord Xu is not like Duke Zhongguo." He was recommended to be honest and honest for the people, but on the contrary, he did a lot of plundering the people's fat and anointing. However, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and no one in Kyoto knows what he did while in office.

Mr. Xu was promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Prince Ling did not send a congratulatory gift. I was surprised, so I asked more questions, and then I found out that Mr. Xu was staying with Liu Mianhua. He was a man who was proficient in eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling. Mrs. Xu deliberately took advantage of this opportunity. No one in Kyoto knew her son's true nature, so he was ready to make a name for himself and quickly settle the marriage. "

"Mrs. Xu obviously wants to trick a girl into jumping into the fire pit. She is more powerful than Mr. Xu. The Xu family does not dare to provoke her. Anyone who is too different will definitely look down on her. My grandfather likes talented people the most, so I am a little worried, so Just a reminder..."

Shen Wan tried her best to speak tactfully, but Mrs. Yun still heard it and was so angry that she trembled all over, "Did my Yun family dig up the ancestral graves of these people in my previous life, and all of them stared at the harm to my Yun family's daughter?!"

Mrs. Yun's lips were even purple with anger. These people had figured out the Yun family's preferences and actually went to suit them when it came to begging for marriage. If Shen Wan hadn't been vigilant, the Yun family would have suffered another setback. .

Shen Wan sighed, "Grandpa, uncle, and cousin are all better at making money than the other. How come they don't attract people's attention?"

Mrs. Yun seemed to have lost her energy all of a sudden, and said dejectedly, "I have said before that too much money will become a curse, but your grandfather and the others are not interested in anything else and just like to make money."

"If you can't keep the money, you won't know who will earn it in the end."

Shen Wan didn't know what to say. Her grandmother knew it in her heart, but it wasn't clear enough. In her previous life, her cousin-in-law didn't let her do business and wanted her to take a merit exam. She pushed her to that point but didn't stop her. What can I do if I just like making money?

Thinking of her eldest cousin's marriage, Shen Wan took the opportunity to say, "Prince Ling also reminded me to try not to go to Huguo Temple before letting my eldest cousin get married. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid those people will try to target my eldest cousin."

Yun Mo said angrily, "It's not enough for those people to plot against me, but they also plot against my elder brother?!"

Shen Wan said, "If you plan a plan, you can only get a little dowry, but if you plan a plan with your eldest cousin, you will need the entire Yun family."

Mrs. Yun's face turned pale.

Everyone's expressions were ugly, but Shen Wan felt a lot more relaxed. She had made it so clear that the Yun family would be more cautious in the future.

Thinking of the Xu family...

Something flashed in Shen Wan's eyes, and she said to Mrs. Yun, "After all, the Xu family belongs to the house of the Minister of Rites, and they are getting the favor of the Holy Spirit. If the Yun family directly refuses the marriage, they are afraid that people will say that the Yun family has high standards. Young Master Xu has just learned to pretend, but he won't be able to pretend for long, and the Yun family will delay it for ten days and a half at most, and the Xu family will naturally give up in the face of difficulties."

Quitting when faced with difficulties?

That would be too cheap for the Xu family.

What Shen Wan wants is for the Xu family to be ruined and get out of Kyoto.

Shen Wan was concerned about the reputation of the Yun family, so Mrs. Yun would not refuse to agree.

Mrs. Yun nodded. At this time, the door was clicked, and the maid's voice came, "Old Madam, the eldest young master has returned from Mianzhou."
