Mrs. Ruan gritted her teeth, and she was even more filled with hatred when she thought that Master Ji was responsible for Ruan Feiguang's entry into the Devil's Academy.
While cursing, she called her maid and mother-in-law, and then rushed towards the Ji family, asking the Ji family to give her an explanation.
She was crying and fussing in front of the Ji family, crying that the Ji family was not doing things properly and that her good grandson was going to be harmed.
Weeping for her son and daughter-in-law who died young, she only had such a precious grandson. If something happened to her grandson, how could she have the face to meet the ancestors of the Ji family?
She scolded the Ji family for being heartless.
If Miss Ji really doesn't want to marry her grandson and just breaks off the engagement, how can she use such a harmful trick?
At this time, Mr. Ji has not yet gone off duty, and Mrs. Ruan is making a fuss, and the surroundings are full of people watching the excitement.
Mrs. Ji felt so angry that her chest hurt.
When Ji Lingyan saw her, she wanted to share Mrs. Ji's worries.
When Mrs. Ji heard that her daughter was about to come forward, she became even more anxious and quickly stopped her: "You are an unmarried girl. If you go out, will you be able to find a good one in the future? People don't care what the truth is, they only know
, the girl from the Ji family is too powerful to marry."
Mrs. Ji has been worried about Ji Lingyan's affairs for a long time. How could she see Ji Lingyan in such limelight and let people talk about it? She just called the nanny, mother-in-law, etc., and locked Ji Lingyan in the room to watch her.
.
Since she no longer wanted to see Mrs. Ruan, Mrs. Ji had to cheer up at this time and discuss with Mrs. Ji how to handle the matter.
Mrs. Ruan could not stay outside all the time. After saying hello, Mrs. Ji went out and politely asked Mrs. Ruan to come in.
Mrs. Ruan was not happy and insisted on Mrs. Ji giving an explanation. She looked like she would be harmed by the other party after entering the house and couldn't explain it.
Mrs. Ji couldn't help it. She was a girl, so she would suffer no matter what.
If Mrs. Ruan doesn't give her any face, she can only "be polite before fighting" and reason with Mrs. Ruan earnestly.
The Ji family really has nothing to do to the Ruan family. Even if the Ruan family and his wife are gone, the Ji family has never thought of adding insult to injury and breaking off the marriage relationship with the Ji family.
Over the years, she had heard a lot about the troubling things about the eldest son Ruan, Ruan Feiguang, but with "a promise of a thousand gold" and every spit and nail, even if she was disappointed, she could only hold on.
"Mrs. Ruan, I have taken ninety-nine steps in front of me, and I am not missing this step. How did I harm your eldest son?" Mrs. Ji said, "What's more, where is the Devil's Academy? Devil's Academy.
But the academy run by Princess Chong personally is the territory of the prince and his relatives, where can a womanly family interfere?"
She also said that there are many people in Beijing who go to study in Shuxiangyuan, and there are dozens of Devils Academy. There are so many aristocratic sons and daughters from aristocratic families there, how come others can go there, but Ruan Feiguang can't go there?
What Mrs. Ruan said makes no sense.
…
Mrs. Ruan insisted that the Ji family wanted to kill her grandson because she regarded the Devil Academy as a scourge and a place that eats people.
But when Mrs. Ji said this, many people reacted:
yes!
Although the Devil's Academy is called Devil's Academy, it is an academy run by the prince himself. How can it be a place that is harmful to people?
What's more, it's not like a young master from the Ruan family is there, many families in the capital have sent people there.
Mrs. Ji directly pointed out that she knew that Mrs. Ruan made such a trip and really felt sorry for Ruan Feiguang's hard work in studying. But how can any scholar not work hard?
Which top scholar didn't study hard for many years in a cold window and then have a future in high school?
She didn't expect Ruan Feiguang to get the top prize in the examination, but she hoped that her future son-in-law would be a scholar who kept his promises and had a thorough understanding of the six arts of a gentleman.
Mrs. Ji looked distressed, as if she was being embarrassed by Mrs. Ruan.
Mrs. Ruan felt sorry for her grandson, and allowed her grandson to eat, drink, play, and have concubines all over the house; but similarly, she was also a mother, and she also felt sorry for her daughter, and hoped that her daughter's future husband would be considerate of her even if he could not succeed in his career.
Daughter’s Difficulties.
"Mrs. Ruan, I really don't expect Mr. Ruan to get a degree or become famous. I just hope that he can be more considerate and considerate of my daughter in the future and not make it too difficult for her."
With a face full of bitterness and pleading, he begged Mrs. Ruan to please be kind and let her daughter go.
The onlookers all around could be heard sighing.
Which family with girls doesn't want their girls to find a good husband in the future? Even if they don't have a lot of money, it would be great if they understand women's difficulties and can take more care of them.
I didn't expect that it would be difficult for a girl from a wealthy family to be a girl. She obviously enjoys wealth, food, and dew, but because of the "promise" made by her ancestors, she must marry as promised no matter what the other person's character is.
It’s okay if the other party’s character is up to standard in all aspects, but if he’s a prodigal with bad character, then…
"No, it's actually that Mr. Ruan?"
"you know?"
"Oh, why don't you know? The one who gave birth to a bastard before his fiancée even entered the house. There are no rules at all, and any woman can be brought into the house... It's such a mess, I don't know how the other party could endure it."
"Alas... I can't help it. I made a mistake when I was a child. When I grew up, I became like this. I can't break the contract, so I have to do this. You have to keep your promises! Who made you make a mistake?
"
"You can't say that. Do you want to ruin your family's lifelong happiness just to keep your promise? Is this what people do? Which girl is so unlucky to be reborn in such a family?"
…
Balabala, the crowd started discussing.
Some people think that keeping promises is a great thing, but some people think that such elders are simply a "disaster". It is too abominable to gamble with the happiness of their own girl's life. Any girl who is reincarnated into such a family will suffer.
Master Yan, Master Pan, and Master Mei gathered together and listened to everyone in the teahouse gossiping about the Ruan and Fu families in the capital, with mixed emotions.
I thought that I was already unlucky enough that my good son would not be able to get out after entering the devil academy. I never thought that there would be someone even worse than them.
In this kind of thing, there really is no harm without comparison.
Master Mei said: "Master Yan, do you think you would break the engagement if there was such a girl in your family?"
"Sigh... what else can we do? What we businessmen value is commitment. If I break the promise, who will trust me in the future?" Master Yan sighed.
No one in the Ji family would dare to break the contract at will, let alone a merchant like him.
Businessmen can survive by "keeping their promises".
Today he can see the situation of his in-law family is not good and break the engagement, but who can guarantee that tomorrow he can see his partner's situation is not good and break the agreement?
Unless the knife falls on you, you won't know the pain.
"Alas..." Mr. Mei also sighed, "Yes, they only saw that the girl was promised out, and it was the girl who suffered the hardship, but they didn't know that breaking the contract was not only about the marriage contract, but also the character of each family."
Mr. Pan said: "Once your character is in trouble, who will believe in you in the future? No one believes you, and it is difficult to move forward."
Master Pan said it nicely, but he didn't know that in the Devil's Academy, his precious son Pan Yuxuan was the first person to break his "promise" and make people doubt his character.
If he knew, I don't know if he would have the nerve to say these things.
