Chapter 35 Discussing Cancellation of Engagement

Chen Yuning's words stunned Gao E and Lei, and they looked at Chen Yuning with some uncertainty.

Chen Yuning did not hide her tears that were like beads falling from a broken string, and she raised the back of her hand and kept wiping them.

It was difficult for her to make this decision, although she couldn't find many reasons, it was just difficult.

But she felt that what Second Aunt said was right, and what Third Aunt did was also right, so the problem must be with her.

"Are you serious?" Lei was the first to react, with unconcealable excitement in his eyes.

She was not happy for Chen Yuning, but felt that she had won.

Both her mother and her elder sister-in-law still wanted Yu Ning to marry into the Song family. Now that Yu Ning herself didn't want to marry, she felt even more justified.

But after this excitement, she also felt sorry for Yu Ning.

"Don't worry, Third Aunt will definitely find you a better one in the future." Lei promised, patting her chest.

Chen Yuning wanted to smile, but her tears fell faster.

"Don't worry, the Chen family will always be your home." Gao E looked at Yu Ning firmly.

Chen Yuning felt better now.

The two men comforted Chen Yuning for a while and then left the cave, only to see Chen Ke and the others returning.

Chen Qing and his wife went to work without saying a word, as if nothing had happened, but both of them were very silent.

Gao E looked at Chen Ke, and Chen Ke walked to Gao E's side.

"Are the big brother and the others okay?" Gao E asked in a low voice.

Chen Ke shook his head.

Gao E didn't know what he meant by shaking his head. Did he mean everything was fine, or did he just not know? "Then what did my parents mean?"

Chen Ke gestured for Gao E to go into the cave and speak.

The couple entered the cave and closed the door briefly, but not completely.

"Mom still wants Yu Ning to marry into the Song family." Chen Ke said in a low voice.

"Ah?" Gao E was speechless.

"Mom said that with the Song family making such a fuss, it will be even more difficult for Yu Ning to get married," Chen Ke explained.

Gao E stared at Chen Ke.

Chen Ke felt very embarrassed when being stared at.

"Yu Ning just said that she would not marry into the Song family." Gao E said directly.

Chen Ke was stunned.

"The house is cleaned up today, I'll go downstairs. Since Yu Ning is planning not to marry into the Song family, I, as her second aunt, can't let her do something she doesn't want to do." Gao E said firmly.

Before, if Yu Ning hadn't agreed, she wouldn't have rushed to do this. Now that Yu Ning has agreed, she naturally has to help Yu Ning.

"If I'm not mistaken, my elder brother and sister-in-law probably don't want Yu Ning to get married, but they are not very firm because of my mother's insistence." Gao E analyzed.

Chen Ke nodded: "Then let's go together after we're done."

Because of this incident, the work that could have been completed in the afternoon was delayed until dark. Master Qin and his team did not leave until after dinner.

Chen Qing used the firelight in the yard to weave a large bamboo fence, which would make it easier to block the gate.

Chen Jie was helping, but he was obviously a little absent-minded.

He had already learned about what happened before they went back this afternoon, and he would definitely talk about it when he went back.

In fact, this is a matter of the eldest brother's family, and the eldest brother has to make the final decision. However, the eldest brother always listens to his parents. In the end, it is estimated that his wife will be in a difficult situation.

Gao E asked Chen Duokui to look after her three younger brothers, and she packed up and left the cave.

Seeing her come out, Chen Ke subconsciously cleared his throat and looked at his eldest brother: "Brother, don't be too anxious to finish it. Let's go back and talk to our parents about Yu Ning's marriage."

Chen Qing paused and said, "Don't worry about it. This is a matter for the two of us to decide."

"That being said, today's incident is now our family's business." Gao E said seriously, "Besides, Yu Ning will have to marry someone well in the future, and she can't let this matter ruin her reputation."

Yang looked at her man.

Chen Qing thought for a moment: "The second brother is a scholar, what do you think we should do about this?"

"It was the Song family who went back on their word first, so it is reasonable for our Chen family to cancel the engagement." Chen Ke said directly.

Hearing his second brother's firm words, Chen Qing nodded slightly: "Then I'll listen to you."

"But we still need to have a good talk with mother," Yang said in a low voice.

During the day, she stood on her mother's side.

"Then what are we waiting for?" Chen Jie said excitedly, "Let's go back as soon as possible. What if our parents are asleep?"

In fact, they all knew that their parents would not sleep until they went back, they just wanted to tell them about it earlier.

The children of the eldest and third sons did not go up today. With several children playing at home, it didn't feel so lonely. However, Jiang kept sighing.

She was really worried.

There are now ten grandchildren in the family, and they are all getting married one after another. If my reputation is bad, what will happen to the marriage of my grandchildren?

So she had to make sure the eldest girl got married smoothly. This was not just her responsibility.

Just as she was thinking this, she heard some movement at the gate. Jiang sat up straight and wanted to secretly discuss it with the eldest son's wife and go to Baotou Village to settle the matter tomorrow.

As a result, when I saw the three brothers and their spouses coming back together, I had a bad feeling.

In the past, the second son’s wife didn’t want to have anything to do with them at all. Now she is not as arrogant as before, but she still keeps her word and will not give in at all.

"Mom." Lei shouted at the top of her voice.

"Hey." Jiang replied and came out. "Are you done with your work up there?"

"Yeah." Chen Ke nodded. "Where's my dad?"

"What's the matter?" Chen Fansheng responded from inside the room.

Chen Jie asked the children to go back to the house, and followed his eldest and second brothers into the main room.

Chen Qing stood at the front: "We have discussed it and decided to cancel the marriage between Yu Ning and the Song family."

"What?" Jiang came in and exclaimed, "This marriage cannot be cancelled."

"The Song family has even bullied our family. Why can't we cancel this marriage?" Mrs. Lei was even more excited than Mrs. Yang.

Jiang looked at Lei with a firm look: "Think about it, if this matter gets out, how will our children get married in the future?"

The room fell silent for a moment.

"Then...if the news gets out that grandma almost beat her granddaughter to death, how will the Chen family's children get married?" Gao E said slowly.

She spoke slowly, which made the atmosphere in the main room even more tense.

"Why bring it up again when it's all in the past?" Chen Fansheng was dissatisfied.

"Everything a person has done is in the past, but it is through these past events that we can determine what kind of person they are." Gao E looked at her mother-in-law. "Now our Chen family knows who the Song family is, but we still want our daughter to marry into them. This is why we are looked down upon."

"Second sister-in-law is right." Lei immediately agreed.

Jiang looked at Yang: "You are the eldest girl's mother, what do you think?"

Yang looked at Gao and Lei hesitantly. She always felt that her family background was not as good as Gao's, and her ability was not as good as Lei's. Finally, she looked at her own man.

"Sister-in-law, didn't we agree on this?" Lei was anxious. She was really worried that her sister-in-law would stand on her mother's side again.

"Cancel the engagement!" Chen Qing said firmly, "If mother doesn't want to intervene, then I will."
