Chapter 1991 Being Completely Fooled by a Little Girl
Not only that, the old woman also said that Gan Yujing had recently taken a liking to the He family's daughter, but after Cheng Jiatong found out, the old woman whispered in her ear, causing Gan Yujing to be less satisfied with the He family's daughter.
Gan Yujing also learned from the old woman that Cheng Jiatong initially wanted to get close to Liao Shi, since Liao Shi, as the eldest sister-in-law, was the one who could better decide Gan Rui's marriage.
However, as the matriarch of the Gan family, Lady Liao was very busy with affairs, and she also had two children to take care of.
Especially after the incident of her aunt poisoning her, she became extra attentive to her child. Nini, who is only five years old this year, is at a very active age, and Mrs. Liao does almost everything herself.
As a result, she had little time to go out, and she rarely attended gatherings among ladies and wives. It was extremely difficult for Cheng Jiatong to get close to her.
That's when she set her sights on Gan Yujing. She even bribed the old woman around Gan Yujing to sow discord between her and Liao Shi, so that Gan Rui's marriage would be entirely in Gan Yujing's hands.
But what she didn't expect was that after her previous failed experience, Gan Yujing was extremely cautious about Gan Rui's marriage. Even though she was close to Cheng Jiatong, she didn't give a vague answer or try to match her with Gan Rui.
This made Cheng Jiatong a little anxious, so she gave the old woman next to her a bracelet, hoping she would put in more effort.
Gan Yujing was completely stunned after hearing what the old woman said.
Cheng Jiatong always presented herself as innocent, lively, and naive in front of her, a person who was completely out of touch with the world. How could she be the same person who was described as scheming and treacherous by the old woman?
Gan Yujing never imagined that she, at twenty-six or twenty-seven, would be completely fooled by a teenage girl.
She was furious with Cheng Jiatong, but also secretly glad that she hadn't confessed her feelings to her. She could just keep her distance from her from now on.
But when she went to bed at night, she couldn't fall asleep no matter what she did; she always felt like something was wrong.
After much thought, I suddenly remembered Cheng Jiatong's sudden departure during the day.
During the day, she had arranged to go shopping with Cheng Jiatong and two other wives, and later they ate at a restaurant. Halfway through the meal, her old woman inquired about some good news and reported it to her.
She went out of the private room for a short while, and when she came back, Cheng Jiatong was gone. The people at the table said that she left after her.
At the time, Gan Yujing was preoccupied with the matchmaking process and didn't pay much attention.
Looking back now, Cheng Jiatong's departure was truly too sudden.
Gan Yujing felt extremely uneasy thinking about her personality. It was just too late yesterday, and even if she wanted to inquire, there wasn't enough time.
But as soon as it was light today, Gan Yujing still sent people to inquire about the news.
Yesterday, when Xia Yan, carrying the tied-up thugs, went to Cheng's house with Shu Yu, many people around saw it.
Gan Yujing knew something was wrong as soon as she heard this. She bribed one of the servants in the Cheng family and learned from him what had happened in the Cheng family the day before. She was immediately struck dumb.
Cheng Jiatong actually dared to bribe thugs to kidnap the county princess?!
Ultimately, Gan Yujing was extremely uneasy because she had brought this person here herself, which is why she and Liao rushed over to apologize.
After hearing this, Tao was somewhat moved.
The other party was sincere and explained the reasons, so even if Tao wanted to blame them, it seemed inappropriate.
Finally, he only said, "I know you are innocent in this matter, but you were the ones who caused it. What if something like this happens again in the future..."
