Unable to win the argument with Duke Xun, Yin Jinzhuo turned to Yin Jin'an and asked, "Second brother, Father is giving you all his savings for your marriage. Are you willing?"

Yin Jin'an spread her hands: "Of course I'm willing! Why wouldn't I? Who wouldn't want something for free?"

Yin Jinzhuo was speechless for a moment, then chuckled, "Didn't you get a title? I thought you were all that important."

"Yes, I am just that spineless. Since you're so sarcastic towards me, you can't not give me these betrothal gifts."

He called out to Liang Youbin at the door: "Later, take some men to the Duke's mansion and bring over the betrothal gifts that my parents prepared for me."

Liang Youbin immediately responded with a "Good!" and selected thirty soldiers to stand imposingly at the door: "Please rest assured, Second Master, we will definitely bring back the betrothal gifts."

The Duchess grew anxious: "Second son, how can you speak so readily? How could you bring this into your household?"

"To be honest, I don't trust my mother. I'm afraid she'll go back and deny everything!"

"You, you scoundrel..." The Duchess was so angry that her fingernails dug into her palm.

Yin Jinzhu added fuel to the fire, saying, "Mother, I'm afraid all your efforts have been in vain. From a young age, he has never felt grateful for his parents' sacrifices."

In a fit of anger, the Duchess said, "I originally wanted to marry Yan Yan to you, but now it seems that a leopard can't change its spots. You are not worthy of my Song family's daughter at all!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Duke Xun and Yin Jin'an jumped up at the same time.

Duke Xun pointed at Song Yanyan, his eyes wide: "You want to marry your second son off to a lady from a prominent family like her?"

The Duchess said angrily, "Yes! I originally thought that now that he has become a marquis, I would marry Yan Yan to him, but I didn't expect him to still be a piece of trash."

"No way!" the Duke said bluntly. "I do not agree to this marriage."

I've suffered my whole life, and I absolutely cannot let my son continue to suffer at the hands of that naive woman.

Yin Jin'an stood up, grabbed the Duchess and pushed her out: "Get out of here! I'd rather stay a bachelor my whole life than marry a woman from the Song family."
