Chapter 1531
Sun returned to Zhenyuan Hou Mansion as if sleepwalking.
The old Marquis didn't know that something like this happened in the palace, so he didn't ask much.
Mrs. Sun returned to the house, closed the door, grabbed the nanny who had followed her into the palace, and shouted, "I have done everything you said, when did you let my master and Ling Wan go?"
Mammy pushed her away and sneered: "What's the hurry? As long as you do as we ask, Ling Xianggang and Ling Wan will come back safe and sound!"
When grandma opened her mouth, there was no one else around and she didn't hide her voice. It turned out to be the voice of a girl.
Ms. Sun was pushed and staggered and fell to the ground. She stared at her angrily and hissed: "You are so untrue to your words, how can I trust you again!"
"You have no choice!"
Grandma smiled contemptuously and warned: "Ms. Sun, if you want Ling Xianggang and Ling Wan to come back, just be obedient!"
"Don't play any tricks, otherwise my people will kill Ling Wan first and then Ling Xianggang, leaving you with nothing!"
After saying that, grandma walked out.
Sun fell to the ground slumped, covering her face and crying suppressedly.
She slandered Ling Yu today because she was forced to do so!
She doesn’t want to either!
This strange-looking nun caught Ling Xianggang and Ling Wan and forced herself to follow their instructions. She could not let her husband and daughter die because of this.
What Ling Yu lost was only her reputation, but Ling Wan and Ling Xianggang had two living lives!
As long as Ling Xianggang and Ling Wan come back alive, she will definitely clear Ling Yu's name!
Sun comforted herself self-righteously.
She had no idea that what she had done had already spread throughout the imperial capital.
The streets, restaurants and teahouses are all talking about this matter.
"Mr. Sun has come out to complain. This proves that that person has really done something that is outrageous. This is really vicious. Not only does he drive someone out of the house, but he also blackheartedly demands 600,000 yuan for medical treatment!"
"Trillium Hall is so dark, I won't go to the doctor anymore to avoid being cheated!"
"Not only Trillium Hall, I heard that Jixiang Restaurant is also owned by that person! That person will do anything for money!"
Those who were discussing did not dare to call Ling Yu by his name, so they all used "that person" instead. Everyone knew who they were talking about and there was no need to specify.
Pei Yu happened to return to the imperial capital today. Xiao Lintian sent his replacement to Zhengzhou, and Pei Yu returned to Beijing to resume his duties.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the house and went to greet Mrs. Pei and his parents, he saw the three of them in the main hall.
"Grandma, father, mother, the child is back!"
Pei Yu saw that Mrs. Pei and his father both looked solemn, and they were not so enthusiastic about his return.
He asked strangely: "What happened? Why do you look like this?"
Mrs. Pei said in a sinister tone: "Yu'er, you've come back just in time. Your father and your grandmother are discussing whether to break off the engagement for you!"
"break off an engagement?"
Pei Yu looked at Mrs. Pei in shock. It was her grandmother who went to Ling's house to arrange her marriage to Ling Wan in person.
The old lady likes Ling Wan very much and is very satisfied with Ling Wan. She has even set a wedding date. Why should she break off the engagement!
"Yu'er, you don't know something. This morning, Ling Wan's mother Sun went to the Jinluan Palace to sue the Queen!"
Mrs. Pei gloated: "This matter is being talked about in the streets now. Your grandmother is worried that what Sun has done will affect your future, so she wants to break off the engagement for you before the matter escalates!"
"Mother, I said at the beginning that Ling Wan was not good enough for Yu'er. Look at what her mother did! How dare she sue her..."
"There is no need to discuss this matter. Break off the engagement. You must break off the engagement! What kind of daughter will be raised by any kind of mother. Daughters from such a family are not worthy of entering my Pei family!"
