Therefore, she said directly, "Sister-in-law Song, please find a place to talk. My sister-in-law, Ah Sen, and I have something we want to ask you."
Su Yu's heart skipped a beat, but her smile remained unchanged.
"Alright, please follow me!"
Chi Yu had no idea how high the temperature was in the county town; in their Chijia'ao village, it had already exceeded 35 degrees Celsius in the past two days.
She, her sister, and Chi Sen followed Su Yu, turning left and right until they reached a secluded spot before finally stopping.
She was already unbearably hot, so she stood under the tree, took off her straw hat, and continued to fan herself.
Su Yu stopped laughing. She took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her forehead. After the irritation caused by the heat subsided, she looked at Chi Yu.
Before she could even speak, Chi Yu said, "Sister-in-law Song, to be honest, I learned from An'an that she is not your child with Brother Song."
She said her real name was Lin Shan, and she also talked about her parents.
But it wasn't explained clearly what exactly happened.
I think if the two families are going to arrange a marriage, there are some things that should be clarified before making any decisions.
Can you tell me Lin Shan's identity now?
If it's inconvenient to discuss, we won't ask. Of course, this marriage proposal will unfortunately have to be cancelled.
Su Yu was also mentally prepared; originally, she and her husband planned to keep it a secret as much as possible.
Now that they know, they have no choice but to tell them the truth.
This is nothing shameful, nor is it their fault.
However, the people they were going to face were from the Earl's Mansion.
If the Chi family doesn't want to get involved, that's understandable!
So she took a deep breath and began to tell the story of how Song Chongjin's father was rescued.
Perhaps it's because of her strong personal feelings and her eloquence, but when she speaks, it's easy for people to empathize with her.
So, after listening to the story, both Chi Yu and Chi Qiao felt sorry for Lin Shan, but also thought that Song Chongjin and his wife were really a good couple.
It's not bad, but they really don't dare to get involved in this kind of trouble right now.
After all, the other party was from the Earl's Mansion, the eleventh prince's identity was unknown, and Qin Mu was only a fifth-rank military officer.
They would never engage in a head-on confrontation at this time.
Having thought all this through, Chi Yu looked at Chi Sen and asked, "Ah Sen, what do you think about this?"
Chi Sen already had a slight liking for Lin Shan, and after learning about her pitiful background, he couldn't help but feel some pity for her.
But he was a rational man and understood what would happen once the Earl's family discovered that Lin Shan was still alive.
He couldn't possibly bring trouble upon his family and clan for the sake of a woman he liked.
However, he felt it would be too cruel to abandon Lin Shan now and find another wife.
After all, many people know today that he and Lin Shan intend to get married.
If we abandon her now, that girl will definitely be gossiped about later.
The girl was already pitiful enough; he shouldn't do something like kicking her when she's down.
After thinking for a moment, he looked at Su Yu apologetically and said, "Auntie, I'm sorry, let's call off this marriage."
After saying that, he looked at Chi Yu again: "Little sister, if we don't get married, will we get twenty lashes and be fined ten taels of silver, right?"
As soon as he said that, the three people present knew what he meant.
While feeling regretful, Su Yu couldn't help but feel somewhat uncomfortable.
She knew that they were in the wrong for lying to her first.
But it feels like the marriage is about to happen, and suddenly it doesn't work out. Otherwise, An'an will be gossiped about.
She was especially afraid that Chi Sen would find another girl, and then that girl and her family would secretly bully An An.
