The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 452 Can the Engagement Be Cancelled?

Mu heard something wrong in her words and asked quickly, "Qingmei, what happened to you?"

Ye Qingmei covered her face with her hands. She wasn't crying, but she was very sad. When she finally put her hands down, Mu saw that her eyes were red, and she looked desperate, close to despair.

She immediately became anxious, "Kid, what happened?"

"Mother." Ye Qingmei said softly, "Do you think it's possible for my life to turn around like Yan'er's?"

Mu's heart skipped a beat. Like Yan'er, this was what she feared the most. She knew what her Yan'er was like. Although she saw her every day, this Yan'er was not her real daughter. Although she still treated this Yan'er well, she knew psychologically that this was not her real daughter.

Having one daughter like this has already broken her heart. If she had another, she really wouldn't have the courage to go on living.

"That's not a ray of hope after darkness has darkened, that's called being reborn after risking one's life." She said to Ye Qingmei, "Although it's also rebirth, but you have to die once before you can become like her. Qingmei, it's best if you stay like this."

Ye Qingmei shook her head, "Mother, I'm not good. Although the family is in mourning, children are not allowed to marry within three years. But as long as I think about marrying into the Fu family in two years, I feel that there is no hope in this life. Mother, I saw Fu Liangzhe when I came out of the clinic yesterday."

Fu Liangzhe is Ye Qingmei's fiancé, who is 20 years old this year. His father is a fifth-rank official in the Ministry of Rites, a very inconspicuous position. He can barely squeeze into the inner city of Lin'an, but the Fu family is not qualified to attend occasions such as palace banquets. So I didn't meet anyone from the Fu family at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, and of course, I didn't meet anyone from Yu Xuanji, Ye Feiyu's former fiancée, either.

The marriage was originally arranged by the old lady, and Mu Shi was also unwilling and not optimistic, but in the end, General Ye listened to his mother and nodded. Mu Shi secretly hoped that this marriage would not be successful, especially after Ye Feiyu's marriage went wrong, she hoped that the Fu family would also make a fuss. Although it would have some impact on her daughter's reputation, a temporary impact is always better than a lifetime impact.

Hearing Ye Qingmei mention the Fu family man, and seeing that he was in such a state, Mu Shi became more alert. She pulled Ye Qingmei and asked, "What did you see about him? Who was he with? Or did he do something?"

Ye Qingmei said, "I saw him with a maid, probably a maid from the Fu family, accompanying him to buy something. The two walked side by side, talking from time to time. Their behavior was not very intimate, but they were not as polite as the ordinary maids and young masters. I saw them walk to a rouge shop. The maid looked inside for a few more times, and Fu Liangzhe asked her if she wanted to go in and buy a few things. The maid said she had no money, and the rouge in the shop was very expensive, and her half-year allowance was not enough to buy a small jar.

Fu Liangzhe said, "You don't have to spend your money. I bought it for you. But if you accept my rouge, you have to serve me in my room from now on. Although I don't have a wife now, it's not easy to say I can take a concubine, but no one cares if I take a few concubines. I'm twenty years old this year. You can't let me not take a concubine for three years just for the sake of that woman from the Ye family. Our Fu family doesn't owe her anything."

The maid blushed and nodded, saying that she did not ask for any status and was happy to be with the young master.

The two of them entered the shop, and when they came out after a while, the maid was already very close to him. Fu Liangzhe whispered something in her ear, and the maid called him "husband". Fu Liangzhe smiled happily, saying that now is not like before. In the past, the Ye family had two generals, and he had to be more or less considerate. Even if he took a concubine, he had to do it secretly, for fear that the eldest lady of the Ye family would be unhappy if she knew. Now he doesn't have to worry about this, because all the generals of the Ye family are dead, and the first wife of the Ye family has fallen into the situation of living under the roof of others, and has to live at the mercy of the second wife. Even the most favored fourth lady was robbed of her marriage by the daughter of the second wife.

So he doesn't have to be afraid now. Let alone taking a concubine, even if he really takes a concubine, what will the Ye family dare to say? If they really dare to say so, he will cancel the engagement. Anyway, he doesn't like the current Ye family. "

Ye Qingmei talked about what she saw yesterday, and hope rose as she spoke. She asked Mu: "My eldest brother's marriage was cancelled, can mine be cancelled? Now that my grandmother is being suppressed by Yan'er, if we propose to cancel the engagement at this time, will she not dare to say anything? I know that canceling an engagement is a big disadvantage for the woman, no matter whether it succeeds or not, and no matter what the reason is. But I'm not afraid, mother, I really don't care about my reputation. I just want to live a good life and don't want to be with that kind of person."

Ye Qingmei was very excited, "Mother, please help me. I have to ask Yan'er for help. I have to risk my reputation to ask her to help me with this. Grandmother is clearly trying to trick our eldest branch. I can't let her involve me in this. Even if I have to shave my head and become a nun, I don't want to marry into the Fu family. Mother, you have to help me." Mu listened to her words and analyzed the situation quickly in her mind.

The Fu family was chosen by the old lady. The reason she gave was that the Ye family wanted to keep a low profile. Ye Wenyan was already engaged to a sixth prince. If the eldest wife married off another princess, it would make the court wary and the royal family suspicious.

But the old lady would not let the first wife have it easy. With the character of the Yu family and the style of the Fu family, why should she marry her daughter to them? It is indeed better to be a nun than to marry such a person. She can't let her daughter suffer, nor can she satisfy the old lady's wishes.

"Mother will definitely get this done for you." Mu gritted her teeth and made up her mind, "You don't have to ask Yan'er, mother can do it for you. Don't worry, no matter how bad people's words are after this marriage is broken off, mother will not send you to be a nun. Just run your clinic well and live your life the way you want. It would be best if you can live out the second half of your sister's life that she didn't finish."

Ye Qingmei was stunned for a moment, "Which sister of mine? Lianmian or Yan'er? Why is it not over yet?" Mu sniffed and forced back her tears, "I just said that, it's nothing. Just live your life peacefully, I will find a way to deal with the Fu family, and when your second uncle welcomes the new wife into the house, we will take care of the Fu family's affairs."

Ye Qingmei didn't know what method the Mu family would use, but she was not anxious. At least her mother had agreed to cancel the engagement and was completely on her side, which comforted her psychologically. Even if this thing couldn't be done, even if she still had to marry that person in the end, she wouldn't feel too sad. After all, she had tried her best, and her family was still on her side, and that was enough.

As for how your future life will be like, that is all up to fate.

The next day, it was finally the day for Chang Xueqiao and Ye Wushuang, mother and daughter, to enter the mansion.

Night Jingsheng woke up very early that day, and he climbed out of Xichun's couch almost as soon as the sky was getting light.

As she stood up, she was annoyed: "The new wife is coming to the mansion soon. I shouldn't have stayed in your room last night. You are too ignorant. Not only did you not remind me, but you also tried your best to keep me. This is disrespectful to the new wife and unlucky."

Xichun knelt on the couch without hesitation after hearing this, half lowered her head and half held back tears as she said, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have always been so attached to the master. I knew that the new lady was coming into the mansion today, but I still forced the master to stay overnight. Bodhisattva, please let any misfortune fall on me. Let me take all the punishments, and don't let the new lady fall on me."

At this point, she leaned towards Ye Jingsheng again, "Master, I really love you and can't bear to let you go. After the new wife comes into the mansion, you will definitely accompany her every day. I have no one to rely on in the mansion, so I can only rely on you. So whenever I think that you will distance yourself from me in the future, I feel uncomfortable."

As soon as she showed this delicate look, Ye Jingsheng softened his heart again and quickly comforted her: "Okay, okay, I don't mean to blame you, and I didn't say that I won't come in the future. The new wife is pregnant, so you still have to serve her in the future. How can I be distant? You are also a concubine now, and your status is much higher than before. You have to act like a concubine, understand?"

Xichun nodded immediately, "I understand, Master, don't worry, I will definitely listen to the old lady and the new lady."

As she said this, she got off the couch and began to help Ye Jingsheng get dressed and put on his shoes.

Today, Ye Jingsheng wore red from head to toe. Although there was no wedding, there was still a banquet at home. And he always felt that he owed Chang Xueqiao a proper wedding because he had never given her a proper wedding. Now that she was finally able to enter the mansion, she couldn't hold the funeral because of the family funeral. If he didn't wear red, he would be too sorry for his beloved woman.

Master Ye Er, dressed in bright red, walked out of Ta Yu Courtyard and met Xiao Shubai after only a few steps.

The red outfit dazzled Xiao Shubai's eyes, and she suddenly thought of her wedding that year. Ye Jingsheng also wore a red outfit to pick up the bride at the Xiao family. He was tall, handsome, and had an upright figure.

Everyone envied her and said that she married into a good family, but who could have predicted that more than ten years later, her life would be like this and that her relationship with him would have come to this point.

"It's a big funeral in the family, even if you're welcoming a new wife, the master shouldn't wear bright red." Xiao Shubai spoke to him expressionlessly, "Besides, a concubine is not the principal wife after all. According to the law of Northern Qi, you can only wear bright red when you marry the principal wife. A concubine doesn't deserve it."

"Shut up!" Ye Jingsheng was really fed up with Xiao Shubai. "It's none of your business what color clothes I wear. Whether it's a big funeral or not is the business of the Ye family. Why are you, an outsider, talking so much nonsense? There's no need to use the laws of Northern Qi to pressure me. Look carefully at my clothes. It's just red, not a wedding gown. I want to wear this color today. Is it your business?"

After he finished speaking, he snorted harshly, pushed Xiao Shubai away, and strode towards the front yard.

Xichun followed behind and laughed and rolled his eyes when he passed Xiao Shubai.

Xiao Shubai was not angry, and her face was still without any emotion. She just said to Jinxiu: "Since he is ruthless, don't blame me for being ungrateful. What is going to happen today, he Ye Jingsheng can't escape!"
