Chapter 162: Clearing the relationship
Chapter 162: Clearing the relationship
Xiang's face turned pale when he heard this.
Does the old lady of Duke Anguo's words mean that she intends to disown the marriage between An Yulin and Yun Lingzhi?
She had never imagined that not only were others ridiculing and humiliating their family, but even the Duke of Anguo's Mansion was stepping on them.
An Yulin saw that the situation was not right. As soon as he opened his mouth to call out "Grandma", the old lady of the Duke of Anguo glared at him fiercely and shouted, "Shut up!"
The old lady of Duke Anguo felt a little disappointed.
This eldest grandson is the future of the Anguo Mansion and carries the hopes of the entire mansion, so the family has been strict with him since he was young, hoping that he can have a promising future.
I didn't expect that this kid would be a little confused when it comes to women.
It was also because they had been too strict in the past. After the marriage of An Yulin and Yun Fuling was arranged with the Marquis Jichun and his wife, the old lady of the Duke of Anguo was worried that An Yulin's mind would be distracted, so she did not allow An Yulin to get close to Yun Fuling, for fear that he would fall in love with Yun Fuling and delay his progress.
Who knew that the more she controlled him, the more rebellious An Yulin became, allowing Yun Lingzhi to take advantage of the opportunity.
The old lady of Duke Anguo was not very satisfied with Yun Lingzhi as her grandson's wife, but at that time Yun Fuling committed a scandal and died in a fire. She really couldn't bear to give up this help from the Yun family. In addition, An Yulin had a crush on Yun Lingzhi, so she had to accept the marriage exchange.
But now and then.
Now that Yun Gansong's branch has been driven out of the Jichunhou Mansion, the whole capital knows that his father, who married into the family, was unruly and had a concubine named Yun. He also wanted to embezzle the family property of his wife's family.
Such behavior will be despised by everyone.
If the Duke of Anguo's Mansion were to marry into a family like this, would their reputation still be preserved?
When I go out in the future, I never know what people will say about me!
Under such circumstances, Xiang called her "relative" as soon as she opened her mouth, and the old lady of the Duke of Anguo naturally could not acknowledge her.
Not only can you not acknowledge them, you also have to cut off all ties with this family.
However, despite her painstaking planning, An Yulin was blinded by love and flirted with Yun Lingzhi in public.
He is really possessed by the devil!
The old lady of the Duke of Anguo had never thought highly of Yun Lingzhi. Now that she saw that she had seduced her grandson to the point where he was completely obsessed with her, she secretly cursed her as a vixen.
A woman like this must not be allowed into the An family.
The old lady of Duke Anguo made up her mind to find a new marriage for An Yulin.
Anyway, the marriage between An Yulin and Yun Lingzhi was just a verbal agreement between the two families. Later, the old Duke and his wife died one after another, and the engagement was delayed.
Nowadays, the old lady of the Duke of Anguo is glad that the marriage has not been formally finalized.
It’s not so troublesome to cancel an engagement nowadays.
Thinking of An Yulin's marriage, the old lady of Duke Anguo couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
If I had known this would happen, I should have allowed An Yulin and Yun Fuling to be closer.
If the two children had been childhood sweethearts, had fallen in love with each other, and had gotten married naturally, perhaps the scandal that followed would not have happened.
If they had gotten married earlier, they might have children running around now.
Yun Fuling is the only descendant of Jichunhou Mansion. So the entire family business and title of Jichunhou Mansion will eventually belong to her great-grandson.
Her great-grandson’s things belonged to the Duke of Anguo’s Mansion.
With such great help, why worry that the Anguo Mansion cannot be revived?
When she thought about missing out on such huge wealth and opportunities, the old lady of Duke Anguo was so heartbroken that she was speechless.
In this state of mind, the old lady of Duke Anguo became more and more displeased with Yun Lingzhi and her daughter.
She was too lazy to talk to them any more, so she took two quick steps forward and greeted Xiao Jingyi, the Fifth Prince and others.
After greeting each other, he took Yun Fuling's hand and said affectionately, "I thought you were in trouble. Whenever I think of you in the past few years, I feel very sad."
"I never thought that God would be so kind and that we would meet again one day."
"Good boy, you have suffered a lot in the past few years!"
"Fortunately, you are a blessed child. Now you have been canonized as the first-rank prince's wife. It can be said that you have finally gotten what you deserved after all the hardships. You will have a good life in the future and enjoy endless blessings."
"Although you and Yu Lin are not destined to be husband and wife, I have always treated you as my own granddaughter. Your parents are gone, and from now on, the Anguo Mansion is your home, and Yu Lin is your brother. You are not someone who does not have the support of your natal family!"
"Come to the Anguo Mansion more often when you have nothing to do and see me, an old woman..."
When Yun Fuling thought about how she was drugged and framed, and how the Anguo Mansion conspired with Yun Gansong to replace the marriage, she knew that the old lady of the Anguo Duke did not really like her.
Now that Yun Gansong's family had been driven out of Marquis Jichun's Mansion, she had taken back the Yun family's property and was canonized as Princess Yi. The old lady of the Duke of Anguo put on a kind face and tried to get close to her and reminisce about the old times.
As expected of an old and shrewd person, the abacus beads were about to hit her face.
Although both her parents have passed away, her great-grandfather and father had made countless good connections throughout their lives as doctors, and all these good connections will inevitably be passed on to her.
Not to mention that she had cured Jing**'s illness some time ago and had already gained some fame in the capital.
She also took back the assets of Jishidiang and the Yun family, becoming a truly wealthy woman.
Now she has been officially canonized and has become the legitimate wife of Prince Yi of Xiao Jingyi.
With the support of these many identities, the old lady of Duke Anguo naturally came for profit.
Yun Fuling, however, dislikes such scheming people.
What in-laws, what brother, bah!
When the original owner was drugged and framed and died in a sea of fire, why didn't they jump out to seek justice for the original owner?
People who seek profit and avoid harm, who are indecisive and put profit above all else should never be associated with.
But Yun Fuling didn't want to break up with him in public, as it would be too ugly.
So he just followed the words of the old lady of Duke Anguo and started to exchange pleasantries.
As for future interactions with the Anguo Mansion, she didn't want to go and had plenty of excuses to shirk. Could it be that the Anguo Mansion would dare to come to Prince Yi's Mansion to force her?
During the greetings, Yun Fuling noticed a young woman following the old lady of the Duke of Anguo.
The woman looked to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with a pretty face. She followed closely beside the old lady of the Duke of Anguo and didn't say much.
Yun Fuling heard that after the death of the wife of Duke Anguo, Duke Anguo only stayed with her for a year and then married a young second wife.
I think it's the person in front of me.
Duke Anguo is really an old cow eating young grass. This second wife is almost the same age as An Yulin.
However, Yun Fuling did not meddle in other people's family affairs. She just listened to the melons and had fun when she had nothing to do.
Seeing that the old lady of the Duke of Anguo was having a very pleasant conversation with Yun Fuling, and she often praised Yun Fuling in her words, Yun Lingzhi was so jealous that her eyes were about to turn red.
Thinking of how the old lady of Duke Anguo had publicly denied her marriage to An Yulin, Yun Lingzhi felt even more hateful and angry.
She looked up at An Yulin, only to see that An Yulin was staring blankly at Yun Fuling.
