The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl
Chapter 34 Are you still canceling the engagement?
"Uh... no!"
When Qinghe heard this, two red clouds suddenly appeared on her face!
She was embarrassed and at a loss...
Jiang Yaonian studied the expression on her face and continued to guess: "Oh, it seems not! Then why is that?"
After Qing He calmed down for a moment, he raised his head and summoned up the courage to say, "Mr. Jiang, my mother was arrested by Yingtian Prefecture. I don't know who reported to the government that jewelry was lost at home and that my mother stole it.
I would like to ask Mr. Jiang... can you help me to smooth things over with the government? She really didn't steal anything!"
After Qing He finished speaking in one breath, she lowered her head silently, feeling extremely ashamed and embarrassed...
Qinghe felt very embarrassed that he had already rejected the other person before, but today he came to ask for help again.
Although the two had been engaged before, she unilaterally insisted on breaking off the engagement. Now that something has happened, she comes to ask others for help. Why should others help her?
The embarrassment and awkwardness made Qing He feel her face burning and her heart in agony, but because she had no other options, she had to bite the bullet and wait for Jiang Yaonian's reply.
When she was struggling between trying to escape and trying to fight for it, she heard Jiang Yaonian say calmly, "I reported it!"
what! ?
This sentence made Qing He quickly forget the embarrassment. She raised her head and looked at Jiang Yaonian in shock and asked, "Why?!"
Jiang Yaonian's expression changed instantly!
He looked at her expressionlessly and said in a deep voice, "Why? I gave her so many jewels, not for her to instigate you to come to me to break off the engagement!
Since she is so ungrateful, don't blame me for asking for the betrothal gifts back."
Qing He hurriedly clarified: "My mother didn't want to take your betrothal gifts. She told me that after we move out, the house and betrothal gifts will be returned to you intact!"
Jiang Yaonian looked at her sharply and said coldly, "People should abide by the rules. Since you have accepted the betrothal gift, you must keep your promise. Why do you suddenly regret the engagement for no reason?"
Qing He lowered her eyes sadly, staring at the ground in silence for a while, then she spoke softly, "Mr. Jiang, it was wrong of us to cancel the engagement, but could you please show some mercy and let my mother go?"
After listening to this, Jiang Yaonian hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said slowly: "That's not impossible... Although I can't guarantee that the person will be released, I can give it a try!"
As soon as these words were spoken, a stone in Qinghe's heart instantly fell to the ground!
She looked at Jiang Yaonian with great gratitude and said, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for being magnanimous and for letting bygones be bygones! If..."
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yaonian interrupted her, stared at her and asked, "Are you still going to cancel the engagement?"
Qinghe was stunned for a moment!
I had to swallow back the words of gratitude I had originally intended to say...
She stared blankly at Jiang Yaonian's handsome but expressionless face, not knowing what to say.
It was true that they were at fault first, but such a ruthless move still made Qinghe feel a chill in her heart.
She didn't want to marry this strong and decisive man anymore.
Seeing her listless and sad look, Jiang Yaonian knew that this little girl was sold without knowing it, and she came here to plead for the person who harmed her. She was probably persuaded by the fat girl with the crooked neck to come here.
He said calmly: "Go back and think about it carefully. If you agree, let someone tell me. But if I don't get your reply within three days, I will go to Yingtian Prefecture in person and ask the prefect to investigate the matter in detail!
Miss Yao, that batch of jewels is very valuable, and many of them were purchased at high prices from all over the world. Whether your mother can come out by then depends entirely on her luck!"
This naked threat instantly made Qing He's face lose all color...
In the end, she didn't know how she left Jiang's house...
After the carriage stopped at the gate of Yao's house, Qinghe got off the carriage with a tired look on her face.
Yao Furong, who was sitting at the door waiting anxiously, saw this and immediately jumped up with joy. She ran over and asked excitedly, "Sister, how is it? Did Mr. Jiang agree?"
Qing He nodded and said softly, "He agreed. He agreed to talk to the government about this."
Yao Furong was so excited that she burst into tears. She covered her mouth and laughed, "That's great! It's really great!"
After saying that, he hugged Qinghe and started crying.
Qing He also hugged her gently and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."
Yao Furong cried in Qinghe's arms for a while, then looked up and said to her, "Big sister, this time it's all thanks to you! Otherwise, Second Sister would definitely not let us go..."
Qing He was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Rong Er, what did you just say?"
Yao Furong immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed the subject: "It's nothing, my second sister didn't dare to ask you, so she asked me to talk to you..."
After listening to this, Qing He said softly, "I know."
When Yao Furong heard that she had gotten away with it, she immediately turned her worry into joy and said, "Sister, you haven't eaten yet, right? I haven't eaten either. I'm waiting for you to come back and eat together!" Then she took Qinghe's arm and walked inside.
As they walked, they chatted happily with Qinghe: "Big sister, do you know that the kitchen made your favorite stir-fried choy sum with chicken and braised pork with soy sauce today..."
Qing He suddenly stopped, turned to look at Yao Furong, and said softly: "Rong'er, elder sister is tired today and wants to rest. You and Chengzu can eat together."
……
In Jiang's house, the female members of the family had said goodbye and left after their tea break.
A gorgeously decorated carriage was driving slowly on the road. Sitting in the carriage were Princess Jingying and her maid Xuehui, who were chatting.
Xue Hui asked quietly, "Princess, do you think that after the old lady knows the news, she will ask Mr. Jiang to break off the engagement with that village girl?"
Princess Jingying smiled after hearing this, then she opened her cherry lips and uttered three words slowly, "Just wait and see."
Xue Hui nodded and agreed, "Well, I asked my cousin before I left, and she said that the village girl hadn't been to the Jiang Mansion recently. It seems that the old lady doesn't like her very much."
Jingying smiled gently and said softly: "This is just the beginning. Even if she is not here, there will be others. However, it doesn't matter. In the end, as long as I can marry into the Jiang family, that's enough."
Xue Hui asked in confusion: "Besides her, who else would want to marry into the Jiang family? Are you as qualified as her?"
Jingying said calmly: "Didn't you notice that Mr. Jiang's cousin was very active today?"
Xue Hui thought about it carefully and wondered, "It seems that there is a little bit. Usually Miss Liu doesn't talk so much, but today she took the initiative to draw everyone's attention to you several times."
Jingying sneered, "Yes, she is reminding everyone that I am deliberately trying to please Old Madam Jiang, and I am pampered and living a luxurious life. I am not worthy of marrying her cousin."
Xue Hui asked suspiciously, "Why? Does she dislike you just like Old Madam Jiang?"
"No, she also wants to marry Mr. Jiang!"
Jingying sneered, “She doesn’t know that Mr. Jiang is going to marry that little village girl, so she took me as her target.
But it doesn’t matter, Mrs. Jiang doesn’t like her and won’t consider letting her marry Mr. Jiang.”
Xue Hui asked curiously, "Ah, why?"
Jingying glanced at her and said calmly, "The Jiang family will not marry a relative who has a murderer. The Liu family had a stupid son who caused a murder, but later bribed the government and paid some money, and the matter was left unresolved! But this is a stain after all, and the Jiang family will not be interested in such a family."
Xue Hui nodded, "Well, a family like that is not worthy of competing with us!"
……
After the women said goodbye, Mrs. Jiang, who was smiling, suddenly frowned and told the maid, "Xing'er, go and call the young master."
Xing'er came to the study, "Young Master Nian, the old lady wants you to come over."
Jiang Yaonian followed her to the upper room and found that the atmosphere was not right as soon as he entered. There was no maid in the room. Old Madam Jiang was sitting alone on the couch with a gloomy face.
Jiang Yaonian walked to the first chair on the left and sat down, then asked with a smile, "Who made you so angry? Did Jingying say something she shouldn't have said?"
Madam Jiang looked at him solemnly, and after a moment of silence, she slowly said, "Nian'er, did you know that Qinghe had a tryst with someone in the middle of the night?"
