Chapter 151: We are all women, we should help each other

"Muhua, this... this is impossible, why! My maternal grandparents are also a famous family in the local area, how can they not be worthy of their Zhao family?"

Pei Shaorong felt that Xu Muhua's guess was too terrible! If it is true, then... it is really chilling to think about it!

My cousin and the sixth son of the Zhao family have been childhood sweethearts, and the marriage was also agreed upon by the parents and elders of both sides, and it has been several years. Since the marriage was decided, the relationship between the two families has become closer, and my cousin and the sixth son of the Zhao family have been in contact a lot. During the holidays, she will definitely visit with the elders, and she is very much liked by the elders of the Zhao family.

I heard from my cousin that their family has said more than once that they wish they could get married early, so that my cousin can marry into their Zhao family and become a real family.

Xu Muhua pretended to think seriously, with one hand across his waist and the other hand supporting his chin, and after a while he slowly said: "I think the most likely scenario is that he has changed his mind and doesn't want to acknowledge this marriage. Just like I said just now, he wants to break off the engagement, but he's afraid of ruining his reputation, so it would be justified to break off the engagement after ruining your reputation. There is really no other possibility."

Pei Shaorong calmed down, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Muhua said was very likely to be true. Because after thinking about it carefully, he found that apart from the possibility Muhua said, there was really no more suitable explanation.

If Zhao Liulang was sincere to his cousin, why would he be so impatient to come to cancel the engagement? It was only one day before and after!

"Cousin, think carefully, what was the look on the Zhao family's face when they came to cancel the engagement?"

Chen Jinzhu was in a trance for a moment, remembering the day when the Zhao family came to cancel the engagement. She was hiding in the yard, but after hearing the news, she staggered to the front hall. Aunt at that time... She didn't look carefully at that time, and her attention was all on the cancellation of the engagement. Now thinking back, there was no regret in her eyes at all, but a feeling of relief.

Why should she be relieved? Unless the Zhao family had wanted to cancel the engagement for a long time, but had not found the best excuse to cancel the engagement.

Chen Jinzhu's heart seemed to fall into an ice hole, and she felt cold all over, making her shiver involuntarily.

If this is true, it's terrible! How could they do this?

"So I suggest that you have a good talk with your elders about this matter after you go back, and find someone reliable to investigate it privately."

After a pause, he reminded: "If the sixth son of the Zhao family is going to get married in the future, you must pay special attention to the woman he wants to marry. Maybe this woman is the reason why they broke off the engagement."

"Humph, maybe the sixth son of the Zhao family has already kept a woman outside and even had a child with her! That's why the Zhao family is so anxious to break off the engagement with such despicable means."

Hearing Xu Muhua's words, Chen Jinzhu suddenly widened her eyes, was shocked, and remembered something she was about to forget.

"I remember, I remember! When our wedding date was about to be set, I was walking on the street one day, passing by a quiet alley, I looked inside casually, and saw Liu - he was in the alley, and there was a little boy standing next to him. I didn't think much about it at the time, but when I met him later, I asked him casually, and he explained that it was the child of a former classmate, and I believed it, could it be..."

Could it be that the child was his?

Pei Shaorong couldn't help but change his face.

If this is really the case, then the Zhao family is going too far! They don't take their Li family seriously at all! They abused the young lady of the Li family like this, do they think there is no one in the Li family, or do they think what they did is flawless and will never be discovered?

Then Pei Shaorong remembered that if she hadn't brought her cousin here today and Mu Hua hadn't said that, they would never have suspected it! In this way, the Zhao family's plan would have really succeeded!

Pei Shaorong was rarely angry and couldn't sit still anymore.

She stood up and said with a frown: "Muhua, we are sorry for disturbing you today. It's late, let's go back first. I will come to see you another day. And, I'm sorry, on New Year's Day, I still want you to worry about my cousin's affairs."

Chen Jinzhu also said quickly: "Yes, I'm really sorry. I shouldn't say unhappy things on a day like today."

"You are too polite! I am a woman like you, we should empathize and help each other. If what I said can really help you, I will be so happy! After all, this is also a great merit, right?"

She winked playfully.

Pei Shaorong and Chen Jinzhu left Fenghua Garden with a solemn look.

Although the two of them looked normal in front of Madam Pei, she could tell at a glance. At first, she thought that they had been wronged in the Chengguo Mansion. But when she thought of the relationship between her daughter and Miss Xu, she immediately denied this suspicion.

Madam Pei said goodbye to Xu's mother and took her daughter and niece back to the Pei Mansion in a sedan chair.

In fact, it was not only Mrs. Pei who noticed it, even Xu's mother felt something was wrong. As soon as the others left, she pulled her daughter and asked, "Muhua, you didn't bully the two little guests of Pei's house, did you?"

Xu Muhua's eyes widened, "Mom, in your heart, am I such a person? A Rong is my good friend!"

Xu's mother laughed, "Mom just asked casually, they seemed to be worried."

Of course, Xu Muhua would not tell Xu's mother about Chen Jinzhu's affairs, which was someone else's privacy. A Rong told her with Chen Jinzhu's permission.

"Maybe she remembered something unhappy, mother, you also know about Pei's house. Alas, fortunately, Dad is not like that Lord Pei..."

Xu Muhua muttered.

Mother Xu glared at her and said, "Don't talk about the Lord's business. If your father hears it, you'll be scolded."

But after she finished speaking, she added, "That Lord Pei is really a piece of shit. Madam Pei has a good temperament, good looks, and a good family background. From what I know, she is also a very qualified mistress. But he favors the concubine in the family... It's a pity for Master Pei's reputation."

It was also because Master Pei was old and didn't have many years left in the court. Moreover, he was the emperor's teacher. Otherwise, Master Pei's behavior of favoring his concubine and killing his wife would have been reported countless times!

"So Muhua, you have to be careful when you look for a husband in the future!"

Xu Muhua blinked, "Mom, isn't this marriage arranged by parents? Will I be able to decide and choose my own marriage in the future?"

Mother Xu choked for a moment, and finally said, "That's what I said, but you have to work hard too."

Xu Muhua nodded perfunctorily.

Forget about men in ancient times, she can't eat them!

What if she meets the Sixth Son of the Zhao Family? I'm afraid she will just chop off his two taels of meat!
