Pity the parents of the world.

Rather than being the victim of the Yao family girl's action, Xie Anning hoped that his daughter's fall into the water was an accident.

Otherwise, if the person who harmed my daughter was her future sister-in-law...

…Should she let her daughter marry him then?

She looked vaguely worried.

Nanny Qian saw this and felt a little bit of pity in her heart.

During the two days at the Wang family's house, Nanny Qian learned how much the eldest lady of the Wang family, who had difficulty in having children, was disliked by her mother-in-law.

Now, her only daughter was pushed into the water by her future sister-in-law.

A marriage between two people of equal social status encountered twists and turns.

For men, it is a painless debt of love.

The husband is the leader of his wife, and it has always been the woman who worries about losing her husband's favor.

Yao Jia Dalang's romantic debts caused his fiancée to suffer unexpected disaster, but he did not have to worry about displeasing his future wife.

Marry, marry, marry, Wang Wan married into the Yao family to please him.

To put it another way, even if the marriage with the Wang family fails, he can still find another beautiful wife.

After all, when it comes to breaking off an engagement, men and women have different levels of tolerance.

If it happens to a woman, even the slightest mistake will lead to her being doomed.

The times are peaceful and prosperous, and people are open-minded, but there is still such injustice between men and women.

Nanny Qian sighed in her heart, but still told everything truthfully.

Xie An listened quietly, his face gradually turning pale.

She even thought that maybe the girls had an argument and pushed someone in anger.

I didn't expect that the truth would be like this.

Concubine!

Before Wan'er even got married, her good son-in-law couldn't wait to promise another woman the status of a concubine!

When a man takes a concubine, it is either granted by his elders and cannot be refused, or the mistress, in order to gain a reputation for being virtuous, goes out to find an obedient and easy-to-control concubine to bring into the house.

In short, the mistress has the final say on matters concerning the harem.

Even if the husband likes a concubine, his wife must first give her approval before the concubine can enter.

His Yao family is so confused!

Seeing her grim expression, Madam Qian couldn't help but advise, "When I left, Yao's eldest son said he would come to apologize soon. Madam, you might as well observe his words and actions. If his attitude towards apology is acceptable, then things won't be that bad."

Hearing this, Xie Anning sneered.

"Before they even got married, this young man from the Yao family had already started a relationship with a girl and talked about lifelong love. If he could give his beloved a proper status, I would have to praise him for being so precious."

She didn't treat Nanny Qian as an outsider, so she said directly, "But he couldn't bear to part with his wife who was of equal status and could help him, so he promised his beloved a lowly concubine position. This shows his low moral character and mean behavior.

"How dare such a person come to marry my daughter and let my Wanwan get involved with them!"

Marriage is a major event in a woman’s life!

Such a confused man is on the verge of favoring his concubine and destroying his wife.

He dared to push her daughter into the water without getting married.

Really married into the Yao family...

Thinking of this, Xie Anning shuddered and broke out in a cold sweat.

At this moment, Wang Wan walked in from outside.

I don’t know how long she listened, but her face was now covered with tears.

Upon seeing this, Nanny Qian immediately stood up, ready to let the mother and daughter have a private conversation.

However, before he could say goodbye, he was called back.

Xie Anning said, "Madam, there's no need to be so polite. You belong to the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine is concerned about us mother and daughter. There's nothing you can't hear."

They were all smart people, and Madam Qian understood everything immediately. She smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, Madam. We will tell you everything we have heard and seen here."

Xie Anning showed gratitude on his face, and then stretched out his hand to beckon his daughter to him.

First, she asked about her daughter's health. "The weather is getting colder, and you've only just gotten better. You should take good care of yourself and don't move around too much."

Wang Wan lowered her head and said nothing.

She had been bored for too long, and the mother and daughter's yards were close to each other, so she came over on a whim.

Who would have thought that when she heard the truth behind her falling into the water, it turned out to be her fiancé's "concubine" who was plotting behind the scenes.

Before she even got married, there were already conflicts within the family.

"You're already a grown-up girl, stop crying." Xie Anning took out a handkerchief and wiped her daughter's tears. She said gently, "Now that you've heard it, why don't you tell your mother what you think?"

Wang Wan opened her tearful eyes and looked at her mother, "Can I make the decision myself?"

As the eldest granddaughter of the Wang family, her marriage was arranged by her grandfather himself, and even her mother had no say in the matter.

But at this moment, Xie Anning said seriously: "Tell me now."

"If you ask me what I think, then I don't want to get married!" Wang Wan said, "I don't want to marry into a strange mansion and fight with the women in the backyard just to compete for a man."

Once upon a time, the love and beauty of her parents made Wang Wan realize that even among the young men of wealthy families with many wives and concubines, there would be a loving and good man like her father.

She wanted to be like her mother and find a man like her father who only loved his wife.

She also had dreams about her future husband.

Not long after returning to Beijing, her marriage was arranged.

Wang Wan had met Yao Yushu once, and the two had a brief conversation.

She remembered that he was tall, gentle, polite, and well-mannered.

At that time, Wang Wan thought, if her future husband was him.

It doesn't seem that hard to accept.

But later, the relationship between her parents, which she thought would never change, changed beyond recognition in a short period of time.

Such a good father suddenly changed his mind and had a concubine in the backyard.

While still immersed in the emotional changes of her parents, she was pushed into the water by her fiancé's sister.

Now she also heard that her gentle and elegant fiancé had already promised another woman the position of concubine.

Men are really... so terrible.

Getting married is really, really scary.

Once she gets married, will she have to live the same life as her mother did during this period?

Tortured by her mother-in-law, she had to watch her husband go to the concubine's courtyard.

Day after day, I toiled in the backyard, and quickly declined...

Wang Wan was really spoiled by Wang Shaofu and his wife. She was raised as a boy since she was young and has a very casual personality.

But now, after such a series of setbacks, she felt a little desperate when thinking about her life after marriage. She looked at her mother and begged, "Mother, can I not get married?"

"Okay," Xie An Ning's heart softened, "If my daughter doesn't want to marry such a lowly villain, then we won't marry her."

Wang Wan's face lit up with joy, but then hesitated again and said, "Grandpa, grandma, and...father, will they agree?"

Xie Anning patted his daughter's head and said softly, "Don't worry about this. Your current task is to take good care of your health."

She comforted her daughter a few more times before asking her trusted aunt to send the person back.

After her daughter walked away, Xie Anning looked at Madam Qian with an apologetic look and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Madam."

"Madam, you are so kind."

Aunt Qian, who was watching the whole process, had a complicated look in her eyes. "But have you really thought it through?"

When a girl breaks off an engagement, it is a major event that can affect her whole life.

Looking around the capital, there are very few noble ladies who can marry into a wealthy family after breaking off an engagement.

Nanny Qian even thought that this was her way of temporarily appeasing her daughter. Once Wang Wan calmed down, she would explain the pros and cons to her.

But Xie An Ning nodded slightly and said seriously: "Think it over. If Wan'er doesn't want to marry, then she won't marry."

If she really married a man like Yao Jia Dalang, she might ruin her life.

Her life has been like this, she can't let her daughter be like this too!

It’s true, a mother is strong.

Madam Qian smiled and praised, "Madam is indeed worthy of being General Xie's daughter."

She then changed the subject and said, "As for cancelling the engagement, I'm sure the Wang family won't agree. I need to inform Her Majesty and have her intervene..."

The one who is in charge of the Wang family now is not her, the eldest young lady, or even Wang Shaofu.

Of course, it would be easier if Wang Shaofu, the eldest son of the Wang family, came forward to persuade his parents.

only……

"It's better not to trouble your majesty for now," Xie An Ning shook her head gently, "He only has one daughter, and he loves her very much. I don't think he would ignore his daughter's feelings and marry her off to such a family."
