Chapter 164 Returning to the King

Donghua Hall is a place where Yu Mansion hosts guests in summer.

The weather is nice, the pond is full of lotus flowers in the yard and the green bamboos hide the pink walls, which is very quiet and quiet. However, the atmosphere in the flower hall is very depressing and dull.

The eldest master of the Zhou family, Zhou Song, his wife Yun, the second wife Du, Yun's sister Mrs. Bai, and Zhou Yichen all came.

Yu Bai and Yu Gui and Yu Gui were all accompanied in the flower hall.

After the maids served tea, they stepped out, leaving only the host and the guest in the room.

Yan sat there and felt a lot of heart. It was not a good thing for the people from the Zhou family to come to the house. But since he had not made it clear, he could only pretend to be confused first, so he forced a smile and said, "Please have a tea. I don't know that the distinguished guests are here today. I am really a little negligent, so please forgive me."

Mrs. Zhou said with a faint face, "You are polite, Madam, we are here without invitation. We should be sorry for us."

Then another silence was coming.

Yubai cleared his throat and said, "I wonder what advice do you have for your in-laws?"

Mrs. Zhou laughed and said, "I dare not take it. We are here today to apologize."

After hearing this, Yuegui couldn't help but panic and asked, "Why do you say this?"

Mrs. Zhou said: "Originally, I can't repent after having a marriage, but my baby is really unbearable to match the daughter of the daughter, so today I think about coming to the door to get the marriage back."

Zhou Yichen couldn't help calling out his mother, and Mrs. Zhou took a fierce look, full of warnings.

Of course, the Yu family knew why the Zhou family did this, but it was a great humiliation for the woman to be resigned from her marriage.

Therefore, Yubai said: "Marriage is a joke? Even if there is any misunderstanding, we two can explain it clearly. Break the engagement will never be achieved."

Both Yan and Sui also agreed, only Yugui did not speak.

Mr. Zhou, who had never spoken, spoke: "Your family is a decent family and has always been reasonable. Some words don't need to be said too clearly, and you will lose your harmony."

The Yu family knew in their hearts that it must be the rumors outside that were heard in the Zhou family.

But the Yu family also has their own considerations. If they really quit the marriage, wouldn’t it be more confirmed? Not only did Yu Rubi find a good marriage from then on, but the reputation of the Yu family was also ruined.

Therefore, Yubai and Yan thought about trying their best to save them. Although the elders of the Zhou family were determined, Zhou Yichen was obviously still nostalgic for Yu Rubi.

So he spoke, "Son-in-law, are you really going to break off your marriage with Rubi? She is sincere to you!"

Just as Zhou Yichen was about to speak, Mr. Zhou immediately took over the conversation and said, "What can you think about a child's ignorant family? Besides, this marriage is the order of his parents and the words of the matchmaker. Everything is decided by the elders, so how can he speak."

Mrs. Zhou also said: "My second wife is here. She used to put the hairpin she had in the beginning. Now I ask your mansion to bring the hairpin, so there is no need to say more."

The hairpin that was inserted when we first met was a token. If both parties cancel the engagement, the hairpin must be returned.

"This..." Seeing that the Zhou family's attitude was too resolute, Yubai didn't know what else to say for a moment, so he could only sigh deeply, sighing that the family was unfortunate.

"We are all noble families, so we can't ruin the children's marriage just because of some unfounded reasons!" Although Yan was not Yu Rubi's biological mother, she was very reluctant to let the marriage go bad.

Not only will she be charged with the crime of being invincible in her daughter, but her two biological daughters will also be affected when she finds her husband's family in the future.

"Madam is a bit too much!" Yun, who had been watching the show next to her, spoke: "It's groundless, not to mention that there is a reason for the fact that the yamen is already famous. My sister is a person who wants to save face, and my nephew is also a hero selected from a hundred. Your daughter is not decent, would you want my sister and her family to take the blame?"

"If you don't speak, I just think you are a lonely ghost who follows you outside," Yugui rolled his eyes and retorted without hesitation: "Will this marriage be done or not be a turn for you, an outsider? You know so clearly what's happening in the yamen. It turns out that you often go out of the yamen?"

Yubai quickly scolded: "What are you talking nonsense? Do you still understand the way of treating guests?"

"Brother, can't you tell me? These people are clearly here to fight us, so what kind of guests are?" Yugui sneered.

"Look, can't you hold it back?" Yun was very smart. She came here to help with the quarrel today, not to mention that this matter was related to her lifelong event of her precious daughter, so she spared no effort: "No wonder your daughter did such a shameful thing. It was really wrong to have a lower beam!"

Yugui is a famous playboy. Many wealthy families in the capital who claim to be upright are unwilling to interact with him.

Yugui was not angry at all when he heard this, and said with a hug and laughed: "I am just a uncle who is Rubi. She has her own parents. Except for someone who bullies her, I can't use me at all at the rest. However, your uncle Bai is nearly fifty years old and often goes to Tianxianglou and Yihongyuan. In this way, your children must not be good!"

Seeing this, Yubai could only shout sternly. If the quarrel continued, it would be even more difficult to end.

"Uncle Yu, Master Yu, it's better to have short pain than long pain. This marriage will be terminated!" Zhou Song stood up and said.

"Dad!" Zhou Yichen finally plucked up the courage to speak: "Can we... let me ask Rubi a few words?"

"Young Master Zhou," a gentle voice sounded from the outside, and Yu Rubi helped the maid walk in: "What do you have to say?"

The sickly and lingering jade, Rubi, was so weak that she was not carefully decorated, but she was still so beautiful that she was heartbreaking. In fact, she had been standing outside for a long time, and she had heard the conversations between everyone just now.

Zhou Yichen knew that he was still moved by her, but the rumors were so unbearable that he always had to ask clearly: "Do you have someone else in your heart?"

Yu Rubi shook her head gently.

"Then Su Balang is indeed a thief, right?" Zhou Yichen asked again.

Yu Rubi bit her lower lip and said, "She is not a thief."

When she answered the first question, the Yu family breathed a sigh of relief.

But her second answer shocked everyone.

"What are you talking nonsense?! I think you are sick and confused!" Yubai scolded: "Then Su Balang is a thief!"

"Yes, not only stealing things but also stealing people!" Yun sneered.

"You hate him so much, could he steal your daughter?" Yugui hasn't convinced anyone in the quarrel.

"My daughter doesn't do such a thing," Yun said, "I wonder if your eldest lady Yu dares to step on the spirit turtle?"

The turtle is a folk way to test a woman's chastity. If a woman wants to prove her chastity, she has to step on the back of a turtle barefoot. If the turtle shell is cracked, it means that the woman is a daughter-in-law.

If the tortoise shell does not crack, it means that the woman has lost her chastity.

Whether this method is effective or not is second to others, it is very insulting.

Yu Rubi's heart seemed to be trampled into the mud. She ignored other people's eyes and insults, and just looked at Zhou Yichen and said, "Do you trust me?"

"As long as you explain to the government that Su Balang is a thief, I will believe you." Zhou Yichen felt that he had made a huge concession.
