Old Lady Su was shocked, "Shut up!"

Su Changjiang said, "Grandma, this isn't shameful. It's better than Su Jinyue getting married and causing a bigger problem."

Now even Jiang Caiping turned around and scolded him, "Shut up right now!"

"What's going on?" The face of the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo obviously turned cold. "I came here to propose marriage today, and you are trying to fool me with a fake one?!"

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo's face turned cold, and her aura suddenly emerged, making everyone in the hall break out in cold sweats!

Su Zhiyao shed tears of grievance after being stabbed by the word fake. She knelt down and sobbed, "Please don't blame me, Madam Zhenguo. I made a mistake and was locked up in the ancestral hall. Grandmother was just afraid that if you knew about it, it would affect my sister..."

Seeing through her affected look as she knelt in the hall, Lady Zhenguo glanced away lazily, unwilling to speak to her.

Ye Zhitang smiled faintly and spoke to help, "If that's the case, then it's not the fault of this sister."

"It's just that my mother came to propose marriage today, and it might not be a good idea if the owner doesn't come to meet her."

Su Jingnian heard this and said, "It's true that my sister is naughty. I'm afraid she will offend the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo today."

"Yes." Jiang Caiping said, "She has been spoiled since she was raised in the countryside. If she is not punished, who knows what trouble she will cause."

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo looked at Jiang Jingnian and then at Jiang Caiping. It seemed that the brat was right. This was how this family treated their own daughter.

"Oh."

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo sneered, "If you say this, then I shouldn't have mentioned this marriage, right?"

Su Chengjiang thought that the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo wanted to break off the engagement, and immediately said, "Su Jinyue is so vulgar that she is not worthy of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. If we talk about matching, Zhiyao is more suitable!"

"Shut up!" Old Lady Su's expression was extremely ugly, but she still had to smile and look at the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, "This matter..."

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo did not listen to her and said, "I have never seen a family like yours."

She looked at Jiang Caiping and said, "Putting your own daughter's face on the ground and stepping on it really opened my eyes."

Jiang Caiping's face flushed. "I am telling the truth, Madam Zhenguo, you..."

"Today I will meet the eldest lady of the Su family. If you dare to evade me again, then we will go before His Majesty to judge the matter!"

Su Yan saw that the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo was really angry, so he dared not stop her, "Go quickly! Invite the young lady over!"

"Yes, my lord!"

The servant did not dare to delay for a moment and hurried to the ancestral hall to invite the person to the front hall.

About half an incense stick of time had passed and the person hadn't arrived yet, but the atmosphere in the front hall was becoming increasingly tense!

Old Lady Su waited and waited, but no one came to the front hall. She ordered the people around her, "Go and ask the eldest lady to come over!"

At that moment, a servant outside the hall came to announce, "The young lady is here!"

Su Jinyue stepped into the front hall and bowed to everyone, "Greetings, Grandma, Father, and Mother."

Jiang Caiping scolded anxiously, "I asked someone to bring you here a long time ago. Why did you come so late? Are you being too careless again?"

Su Jinyue, who was standing in the hall, said calmly, "Mother, I have been kneeling in the ancestral hall all night. How can I meet people with my disheveled hair and dirty face? I was delayed in getting dressed. Please forgive me for being late."

"Alright, what's the point of forgiving or not forgiving?" Old Lady Su said, "Hurry up and come meet the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo."

Su Jinyue looked up at the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, took a step forward and saluted respectfully, "Greetings, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo."

At first glance, Lady Zhenguo was shocked by Su Jinyue's appearance. Apart from the young man in the palace, no one else could make her so stunning.

"Hurry up and get up, come here and let me see!"

"Yes." Su Jinyue stood up and walked to the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo looked at her with great favor, and then looked at Jiang Caiping, "Madam Su, the matter is not clear yet, and you are eager to put the blame on your daughter. It is hard for me to believe that she made a big mistake and was locked up in the ancestral hall by you!"

Su Jinyue is always a "troublemaker" on weekdays, so Jiang Caiping subconsciously thought it was her fault. When the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo said this, her face suddenly turned red, but she didn't dare to refute it out loud.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo said to Su Jinyue, "Tell me why."

Su Jinyue looked in the direction of Old Lady Su, and seeing that her eyes were about to burst into flames, she lowered her eyes and said calmly, "It's nothing, grandma just wants me to calm down. This is grandma's painstaking effort."

Hearing Su Jinyue's words, one could tell that this was the kind of life she led in the mansion. The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo could see from what she had just seen that she was a person who was neither loved by her father nor her mother, and she felt even more distressed.

"Good boy."

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo patted Su Jinyue's hand and took off a purple, crystal-clear jade bracelet from her wrist. "This is the family heirloom jade bracelet passed down to me by the old lady. Today I pass it on to you."

This was a public confirmation of Su Jinyue as the daughter-in-law. Except for Old Madam Su whose expression eased, the expressions on everyone else's faces were all ugly!

Liu finally couldn't help but speak in a sarcastic tone, "Madam, don't think she is so obedient now, she is a thoughtful person. When she gets married, you, as her mother-in-law, must set rules for her."

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo glanced at her, then looked away and talked to Su Jinyue and the old lady.

Seeing that the topic was dropped, Liu wanted to speak again, but Ye Zhitang smiled and continued, "Although my mother-in-law is straightforward, she doesn't want to embarrass the younger generation. In our Zhenguo Mansion, there is no such thing as the mother-in-law setting the rules."

Liu grumbled, "I've never seen a family where the mother-in-law doesn't set the rules!"
