First break up the relationship, then get rich, I can choose any handsome man in the world

It was already very late when Old Lady Ye returned home with the money, but the Ye family members were still awake, waiting for Old Lady Ye to come back.

As soon as she entered the door, Tian asked, "How is it?"

Old Lady Ye looked very proud and stretched out her hand to make a number 10.

Tian was surprised: "Ten taels of silver?"

Old Lady Ye nodded complacently: "Humph, I went over and gave them a good scolding, and she didn't dare to even fart. If she dares to neglect us, I won't let her have an easy time."

These ten taels of silver were a considerable sum of money for their family, and Tian was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

"Oh, you are still the best, mom."

Old Lady Ye was very pleased with what she heard, but what Tian said next made her change her expression.

"Mom, please give me this money quickly. I will save it so that I can buy Lian'er a dowry when she gets married."

"Don't bother you. I'll just keep the money."

"Oh, mother, please let me keep this money. After all, I am Lian'er's biological mother, don't you think so?"

"It's true that you are her biological mother, but I am also Lian'er's grandmother. Besides, if it weren't for me, the Qian family wouldn't give it to me. It's better to leave the money with me."

Tian went up to her half-seriously and half-jokingly to snatch it away, but Old Lady Ye refused to give it to her, and the two of them started to struggle.

Ye Zhankui, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up: "Okay, leave these ten taels of silver with mother."

For Ye Zhankui, his mother's things are also his, no matter where they are placed.

But Tian didn't think so. She felt that only things in her hands belonged to her.

Seeing that her man was not on her side, Tian glared at Ye Zhankui angrily, but Ye Zhankui acted as if he didn't see it.

Ye Lian'er heard every word they said. She originally imagined that maybe Qian Xiucai didn't know about this, but now it seems that she was overthinking.

She didn't understand why everything was fine so suddenly turned out like this?

Could it be because of the scar on her face? Ye Lian'er unconsciously stroked the scar on her forehead...

No, she had to go and ask in person why Qian Cheng wanted to cancel the marriage.

The next day.

The scholar's mother wanted to go out to buy vegetables with a basket. When she opened the door, she saw a girl standing at the door.

She exclaimed "Ouch" and then realized it was Ye Lian'er.

"Miss Lian'er."

"Aunt Qian, is he here?"

The scholar's wife glanced at her own house and nodded awkwardly: "Yes."

She hesitated for a moment and asked, "What do you want to see him for?"

Ye Lian'er lowered her head and said nothing. Although she lost ten taels of silver yesterday, she softened her heart when she saw the girl like this: "Wait, I'll go call him out."

After a while, Qian Cheng was called out by the scholar's wife. The scholar's wife carried a basket, said she was going to buy vegetables, and walked away.

Qian Cheng was a little embarrassed: "Miss Lian'er, I'm really sorry for causing you such a big trouble."

Ye Lian'er did not sleep all night. She could not rely on her family and had to rely on herself. She wanted to know why Qian Cheng broke off the engagement, so she mustered up the courage to wait outside Qian's house early in the morning.

She was so nervous that her palms were sweating. She didn't even dare to look up at Qian Cheng: "I, I want to know why."

"I'm sorry, this matter is all my fault, you can blame me if you want."

"I, I just want to know why."

"I..." Qian Cheng took a deep breath: "The person I like is not you."

"Not me? Then why did you give me the illusion that you liked me..."

"Before?" Qian Cheng was stunned. What did he do before?

It was just that her mother said that the new girl from the Ye family in the alley was a good person, and he was tired of his mother nagging him every day, so he agreed to get married.

As for the rest, he did nothing. The two of them didn't even talk to each other.

Looking at Qian Cheng's confused look, Ye Lian'er suddenly realized something.

From accidentally bumping into each other in the rain to meeting each other every time, all of this was sweet to her.

But for Qian Cheng, maybe it’s not…

All this is her unrequited love...

Thinking of this possibility, Ye Lian'er was so ashamed and angry that she turned and ran away.

Qian Cheng stood there, feeling a little overwhelmed. On the one hand, he was worried that Ye Lian'er would be upset, and on the other hand, he was afraid that if he caught up with her, it would cause unnecessary trouble for both of them.

Only after seeing Ye Lian'er running back to her home did Qian Cheng turn around and go home.

After Ye Shian and his group returned home, Yu Xiuying called Ye Shian alone.

After hearing what Yu Xiuying said, Ye Shian thought about the person she met today. That person was indeed very good-looking, and she couldn't help but take another look at him.

"Mom, what you told me means that you want me to talk to my elder sister?"

Yu Xiuying shook her head: "I want you to test her attitude."

"What's the point of testing this? The scholar is indeed good-looking and is a good match for my elder sister. Just tell her directly. As for whether my elder sister is willing or not, that's up to her."

Yu Xiuying was a little melancholy: "Last time when your aunt mentioned it, your eldest sister reacted a little violently, and I was thinking that since she is so pretty, has she found someone she likes in these years?"

Ye Shian smiled: "Mom, you are really thoughtful. It is indeed possible, but that was in the past. Didn't my elder sister say that it is all in the past. What matters is the present and the future. This scholar is good, but he may not be suitable for my elder sister. It is better to let the two get along with each other. If they are suitable, it will be the best. If not, we will not force it."

"Okay, your idea is good." After getting along with Ye Shian for such a long time, Yu Xiuying knew that Ye Shian's thoughts were greatly influenced by that side, and she also slowly accepted the open-minded ideas there.

When Yu Xiuying came to Ye Xianchun's room, Ye Xianchun was sewing clothes.

"You are such a skillful girl. This needlework girl is really ashamed of herself."

Seeing Yu Xiuying touching the clothes she was making, Ye Xianchun's heart was in her throat. She was afraid that Yu Xiuying would turn out the things hidden underneath. Fortunately, Yu Xiuying just took a look and didn't move.

"Mother has me, so she doesn't need to do needlework. Tell me what you want and I'll make it for you."

"Mother doesn't want my daughter to suffer so much, so you should stop doing these things in the future, especially at night. Needlework is too harmful to the eyes."

"Okay, listen to mom, I won't do it after doing this."

Yu Xiuying pulled Ye Xianchun to sit next to her and said earnestly, "Xianchun, you are not a child anymore. Tell me what you think."

"Just say whatever you want to say, Mom."

Seeing Ye Xianchun being so straightforward, Yu Xiuying stopped beating around the bush and asked, "What do you think of the scholar today?"

"Mom, I don't want to get married. I just want to stay with you forever."

"Silly child, what are you talking about? There is no girl who doesn't want to get married."

"I just don't want to get married. What's so good about getting married? Just like you, mother. Did you ever have a good life after marrying into the Ye family? You worked like a slave to serve the family, but in the end you ended up like this."

"Your father is very good to me, he is just too filial. As for your grandmother, let's not talk about it. I had a hard time in the Ye family, but I have you. Look, isn't mother living a good life now? If I hadn't married your father, you wouldn't be here. I can't even imagine what I would be like now without you."
