The two sides haven't reached the point of exchanging birth charts yet; it's just a verbal agreement, and they can go back on their word at any time.
Master Wei's face turned ashen. The Zhang family had heard rumors and were now turning their backs on him!
Wei Yun breathed a sigh of relief. Since the Zhang family was willing to give up the marriage, all her efforts were not in vain.
If we're really going to force her to marry that Lord Zhang, we might as well let her die!
Madam Wei took in her relieved expression, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.
What an idiot! If the Zhang family hadn't broken off the engagement, she would have had some reservations. Now that the marriage is off, she can deal with things without any worries!
Madam Wei immediately turned to the furious Master Wei and said, "Master, with the Third Girl doing such a good deed, it will probably be difficult for our other maids to find husbands in the future. I think it would be better to send her to the estate to avoid the storm and let people forget about this matter as soon as possible."
Wei Yun stared wide-eyed in astonishment, still not having reacted.
Her aunt pleaded desperately, "Master and Madam, please don't! Yun'er was just confused for a moment, she will change!"
It was euphemistically called sending them to the estate to avoid trouble, but who didn't know that noblewomen were only sent to the estate if they committed a serious crime, and almost all of them never returned!
A woman's prime years are fleeting; once they're wasted, who will remember her?
Master Wei thought the suggestion was good. This daughter who had disgraced the family was always hanging around under his nose, which made him feel very annoyed. Moreover, only by sending Yun'er away from Yanjing would everyone forget about this matter as soon as possible.
At that time, the marriages of the other daughters will not be delayed because of this.
He glanced at Wei Yun, who had a blank expression, and made the final decision: "As Madam wishes."
Madam Wei curled her lips and glanced at Wei Yun. Once she went to the estate, wouldn't she be at Wei Yun's mercy? Even if she accidentally killed her, would the master still care about a daughter who had lost her value?
She doesn't want to get married, so let's grant her wish and she can just never get married for the rest of her life!
Wei Yun then came to her senses, a look of confusion on her face.
It was the result she wanted, but she felt that darkness awaited her.
——
"That old lady of the Zhang family is also opportunistic. When she heard that Miss Wei had embarrassed herself in front of His Majesty, she couldn't wait to go to the Wei family to refuse her!" Xue Qing gently pursed her lips.
Originally, the Zhang family had no intention of breaking off the engagement. After all, Lord Zhang was quite old and had married two wives who had both passed away. To put it bluntly, he might be destined to bring misfortune to his wives!
Given these conditions, it would be difficult for him to find a young, beautiful, and fearless wife.
However, the Zhang family was timid and afraid of trouble. Upon hearing the news, fearing that they would displease His Majesty, they hurriedly broke off the engagement!
Shen Tangning's eyelashes trembled slightly, revealing dark and bright pupils: "Didn't she not want this marriage? I guess I'm just doing a good deed by going with the flow."
Wei Yun didn't want this kind of marriage, which she could understand, but she should never have set her sights on Shen Ci.
Since the other party had the wrong idea first, she shouldn't blame her for showing no mercy.
Madam Wei was willing to marry Wei Yun to someone like Lord Zhang, so he must not be someone easy to deal with. And Wei Yun's actions clearly show that she is dissatisfied with her arrangement.
Since that's the case, she doesn't need to lift a finger; someone else will take care of Wei Yun for her.
It seems she will never have the chance to meet her dear sister-in-law in this lifetime.
