"Let's start with cooking. It's getting late, so go and cook."
The old lady was very pleased with her obedience and immediately ordered her to go to the kitchen.
"But I don't know how. Auntie, could you teach me?"
Seeing Sun Yue's appearance, the old lady disliked her even more. She took her to the kitchen and watched her clumsily cook.
"Auntie, I'd like to invite Young Master Lin..."
"My son needs to study. Do you think he's like you? Hurry up and cook some food."
Sun Yue felt wronged and wanted to cry after being yelled at like that...
"Why are you crying? I don't want a daughter-in-law like you. You're so delicate, what good can you do? Just leave..."
Sun Yue kept shaking her head, "No, no, no, I'll do it, I'll do it..."
I cut my hand while chopping vegetables, and got scolded for using too much oil.
However, Sun Yue burst into tears during the meal.
Lin Xuan came out for dinner, and before Sun Yue could even speak, the old lady spoke up. "What kind of girl did you find? A grown woman who can't cook? These days, what girl can't cook?"
"How will I take care of you after this? I don't agree to this marriage. After this meal, send her away."
Hearing the old lady say this, Sun Yue's tears kept falling. "Young Master Lin, I..."
Lin Xuan sighed, "Mother, don't be like this. Sun Yue used to be a young lady from a wealthy family. She left home for my sake. You need to give her some time and let her learn slowly, right?"
Lin Xuan seemed to be speaking up for Sun Yue, but in reality, he was also getting Sun Yue to do the work. However, he spoke with great skill, and every word he said touched Sun Yue deeply.
"Don't worry, Auntie, I'll definitely learn it from now on."
The old lady snorted coldly, "Then let's take another look."
After dinner, the old lady made her wash the dishes and tidy up the house. Sun Yue could only grit her teeth and do it; for Young Master Lin, she could do it...
Lin Xuan also went to find his fiancée.
"Didn't you say you'd break off the engagement if you got money? Let's go..."
The woman didn't hesitate. She had heard about what had happened to Lin Xuan's family in the past two days. Anyone who liked such a scumbag should want him.
"I can give you eighty taels, but... you must leave here and never come back, and you can't mention our engagement, how about that?"
The woman stared coldly at him, at his disgusting appearance. She would remember his face, remember how repulsive he was, and tell herself that she would keep her eyes wide open in the future and never encounter scumbags.
"Don't worry, I will leave here and never see you again."
The woman followed Lin Xuan to the county government office and told the officials that they had been betrothed since childhood, but their personalities clashed and they had no feelings for each other, so they voluntarily dissolved the engagement.
Lin Xuan was responsible for providing the funds, and all she had to do was sign off.
Lin Xuan had originally planned to each contribute a little, but the woman said, "If you don't want to, that's fine. I'll just say you'll take each woman home one by one..."
Lin Xuan thought about his future, gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I'll pay."
When they came out of the county government office again, the two of them were no longer engaged, and their marriages were no longer their concern.
The woman left with her family a few days later, without any regrets, and started a new life. Of course, that's another story.
When Lin Xuan got home, she was very excited. "Mom, I broke off the engagement with her. I don't have to worry about her anymore."
Sun Yue, who was working, quickly ran out, "Young Master Lin, is this true?"
Since Young Master Lin is no longer engaged, the two of them can get married.
Lin Xuan looked at Sun Yue at this moment. After changing out of her gorgeous dress, she looked like this, with a sallow complexion.
"Yes, I broke off my engagement with her."
Sun Yue was overjoyed and quickly came over to hold Lin Xuan's hand; her efforts had finally paid off.
"When should we get our marriage certificate?"
Lin Xuan remained silent; of course, he couldn't possibly get a marriage certificate with Sun Yue.
"Have you no shame? If I don't agree, it's considered an unlawful act, and I'll get a tattoo."
Marriage must be arranged by parents and a matchmaker; you need to get my consent first.
Lin Xuan looked at Sun Yue gently, her eyes filled with difficulty. "Sun Yue, I'm different from you. I want to pass the imperial examinations and achieve official rank. If my mother doesn't agree, we won't be able to get married. Please hold on a little longer and wait for me, okay?"
Sun Yue was a little sad, but seeing Lin Xuan who was also very sad, she told herself that as long as her mother-in-law agreed, it would be fine.
She looked at her hands, covered in wounds, and at the endless work... She shook her head forcefully, telling herself not to think about it, not to let her mind wander.
...
Sun Yun waited for two days but Mo Yan didn't appear, so he had to go back. As soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he heard two women arguing.
He looked up and saw Old Man Fang standing next to him. "Can't you control your wife? We haven't even asked you to pay rent, and she's still so arrogant every day."
"I don't have the final say. You know my family, my wife is in charge."
These words made Sun Yun even angrier. Sun Yun went to ask himself and found out that their household registration could be done here, but they would still have to pay money.
He was a little reluctant to part with it, but still held onto hope.
The two men went inside together, but the two arguing inside showed no signs of stopping.
“Let me tell you, it’s your daughter who has wronged our family. It’s not just about the cleanliness of the yard, but also about our food, drink, and toileting. Your family has to take care of everything, or we’ll all go our separate ways.”
Aunt Fang gets into arguments by yelling, and sometimes she even resorts to physical violence.
"You're shameless! Your son is shameless!" Lan Cao kept repeating this phrase.
"Shameless? Ha, no one is as shameless as your daughter. She stole her sister's fiancé and even went to save someone she shouldn't have. Your daughter is the most shameless of all."
Lan Cao couldn't take it anymore. Her face darkened, and she pointed at the front door, yelling, "Get out! Get out of here! This is our home. Get out right now! We don't welcome you living with us. Get out!"
"Get lost?" Aunt Fang walked over and grabbed Lan Cao's hand. "Fine, give us five hundred taels. If you give it to us, we'll leave. Otherwise, don't even think about it!"
"Are you crazy for money?" Lan Cao's eyes widened.
"No, five hundred taels for your peace and your daughter's future, it's not a bad deal."
Just then, Sun Xueyao struggled out of the room. "Mother, don't worry about them. Just kick them out. I don't believe they can really go to the county government. If they do, I'll say that the other side is the mastermind and that they asked me to do it."
Auntie, I'm a woman, I have no chance against him, so I'll definitely listen to him. I can also tell the county government that your son is trying to bully me.
If this charge is proven, your son's life will be ruined, right?
Those who ruin someone's reputation will have tattoos on their faces and will always be looked down upon.
Aunt Fang suddenly lost her temper. She looked at Sun Xueyao, who was leaning against the door. She seemed like a gentle girl, but every word she spoke was so cruel and so hurtful.
"Sun Xueyao, is this how you treat your sister? You're so ruthless..."
The other side has also come out; he's finally stopped being a coward. "Xueyao, what did you just say?"
