Chapter 1533
Pei Yu had heard the discussions along the way, but he still found it unbelievable.
"My family is unfortunate!"
The old Marquis shook his head and sighed: "I don't even know what evil happened to Mr. Sun, how could he do such a thing!"
"What happened?"
Pei Yu asked anxiously: "I want to see Ling Wan and hear what she has to say!"
"Ling Wan is not at the house. The eldest lady said that she went to the farm to see the spring plowing!" Gu Cui said.
"Which farm?" Pei Yu asked carefully.
Gu Cui didn't know. The Sun family was in charge of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion before, and Gu Cui was just an aunt, so she had no right to interfere with their affairs.
Pei Yu wanted to see Mrs. Sun, but before leaving, he asked about the whole story.
The old Marquis told him everything he knew, and finally said: "The empress did it for the sake of the Sun family, so she forced Ling Xianggang to give up the 600,000 silver to make up for her!"
"This is not what the outside world has rumored at all. The empress asked Ling Xianggang to perform the operation, but she didn't ask Ling Xianggang a tael of silver!"
Pei Yu didn't believe that Ling Yu would ask for medical fees from Ling Xianggang. He generally knew what was going on, so he went to Sun's courtyard under the leadership of the maid.
But Sun still kept the courtyard door closed as she did to the old Marquis. No matter what Pei Yu said outside, Sun wouldn't open the door.
"Auntie, do you have any difficulties? You can trust me... tell me and I will help you!"
Pei Yu persuaded patiently, but Sun didn't say a word.
Pei Yu frowned and said, "You can tell which farm Ling Wan is at!"
Mrs. Sun was listening inside, but she didn't dare to answer at all.
Pei Yu became a little impatient when he saw that Sun was not getting enough, and said cruelly: "Auntie, you know that if you do something like this, it will affect my marriage with Ling Wan!"
"Before I came, my grandmother and my father were already discussing to break off the engagement. Do you really want to ruin my marriage to Ling Wan?"
Sun's eyes suddenly widened.
After Ling Wan and Pei Yu got engaged, Pei Yu came to visit her from time to time.
Pei Yu doesn't have the bad habits of those young men from aristocratic families. He is a good son-in-law who is nowhere to be found.
Because Ling Wan is the daughter of a guilty minister, her marriage has been blocked. Not many women would envy her to meet Pei Yu!
He slandered Ling Yu, which must be something the Pei family cannot tolerate.
"General Pei... just go back and just think that my Wan'er has no chance to meet you in this life!"
Sun's heart was bleeding when she said these words.
What evil had she done to ruin her daughter's marriage?
If my daughter comes back alive, will she forgive herself?
But thinking that her husband and daughter could survive, Mrs. Sun suppressed her guilt.
She is doing it for them!
Nothing is more important than life, they will eventually understand themselves!
Pei Yu didn't expect that after waiting for a long time, he would get such an answer. He stood blankly for a while, turned around and left angrily.
This does not mean that Pei Yu gave up, but that Pei Yu suddenly thought of something suspicious.
As a mother, it is impossible for Sun to not care about Ling Wan's marriage, especially now.
If Ling Xianggang is really kicked out by Ling Yu, Ling Wan's best choice is to get married to him.
But now the Sun family has voluntarily given up on this marriage...
Based on Pei Yu's understanding of the Sun family, it is impossible for her to ruin her daughter's happiness in life.
That's the only possibility...
There is something more important than marriage, which is precious life!
Thinking about it from this aspect, if Mrs. Sun didn't open the door, someone inside was threatening her.
In other words, it was a lie that Ling Wan went to the farm. In fact, Ling Wan... and even Ling Xianggang were controlled by others and used to blackmail Sun into slandering Ling Yu...
