This was given to her by her granddaughter!

Mrs. Song was so happy that she couldn't help but shed a few tears. Her granddaughter was so kind.

Looking at this pearl, Mrs. Song felt a lot more at ease. The fact that she could still hide the pearl proved that she still had some wealth left.

Li Qianchen was sitting in the front hall of the Yun family's house, looking at a red plum standing proudly in the white snow in front of the small yard.

A group of maids jumped into the gate, each holding something different in their hands.

He put down the tea and snacks one by one, flicked the charcoal fire in the stove, and then walked out quietly. From the beginning to the end, he heard not much sound. This is the rule of a wealthy family.

Li Qianchen took a sip of tea, it was good tea.

Finally there was some movement, and the housekeeper hurried into the courtyard.

"I've met Mr. Li! Our master has just come back and is changing his clothes. Please ask Mr. Li to wait a moment." The butler bowed and said with a slight apology on his face.

Li Qianchen pursed his lips and smiled softly, "It's okay! Yun Shibo is busy with important matters. I'm just an idler, so I can wait."

The maid served tea again, and Yundating finally appeared.

"My dear nephew! I'm really busy with official duties at the Yamen, so I just came here to greet you now!" Yundading said apologetically as he stepped forward.

He said some words about how much he missed him after not seeing each other for a long time, and also expressed concern for Li Qianchen's family.

"...Grandma is very good, but Qianchen came to visit this time with an unkind invitation." Li Qianchen bent down and said.

"If you have anything to say, if you can help me, uncle will definitely help you!" Yun Dating promised.

"To be honest, Qian Chen is here to break off the engagement!"

break off an engagement……

The smile on Yundating's face suddenly froze, but recovered immediately.

"Why do you want to break off the engagement?" Yun Dating asked amiably.

"Qian Chen has to observe mourning for his parents for three years, and is not allowed to get married during these three years. In addition, the Li family has declined, and I have dismissed all the servants in the family. Only two old servants are left to serve my grandmother who is in poor health."

"In the past three years, we still don't know what changes will happen."

"Qian Chen is still a white woman now. There is only one young lady in the Yun family, and she must be the jewel in the family. She really shouldn't have to suffer so much injustice for me, a person I have never met. Qian Chen is not a good match."

"That's why I took it upon myself to come to the house to cancel the engagement, and I asked Shibo to forgive me." Li Qianchen said, bending down.

Yundating helped the young man in front of him up.

"I'll think about this matter again. I'll go talk to Rujun and ask for her opinion." Yun Dating said in a tactful tone.

The Yun family and the Li family are family friends, and this marriage was decided long ago.

Even though the Li family fell into ruin, he never thought of regretting his marriage.

More importantly, he is quite optimistic about the young man Li Qianchen.

"It's getting late, so you can rest in my house!"

"Then it will be troublesome, Uncle Shi."

Yundading welcomed Li Qianchen to the small courtyard where the guests lived, but was hurriedly called away by the slaves.

"Master, do you think the master of the Yun family will agree to break off the engagement? What if he doesn't agree?"

Li Qianchen sat down leisurely and looked at the scenery outside the window for a while.

"Yun Shibo will agree."

He and Yun Rujun were set to get married as children. When he was a child, he was teased when he came to Yun's house to celebrate the New Year, but he never saw his fiancée in person.

Nothing but this fiancée doesn't want to see him.

I didn’t want to see him when I was a child, how can I still expect my parents to see him when I grow up?

Besides, there is only one young lady in the Yun family, including sons and daughters. She must have been raised in the hands of the elders.

I heard that when this young lady celebrated her birthday last year, the elders in the family found her a transparent glass lamp as a birthday gift.

Even so, the young lady was treated in a normal way.

After marrying such a daughter-in-law and returning home, he was afraid that he would be disliked by others and that he would be destitute.

"Master, if you don't have your fiancée, who will you marry?" Zi Xian said sadly.

The young master was already lonely and helpless, and now that he has no fiancée, it will be even harder to find a wife in the future.

"Zixian, why do you care so much about me, young master? Do you want to get a wife?" Li Qianchen said with a smile.

Zi Xian hurriedly shook his head like a rattle. "Master, I will stay with you for the rest of my life. What kind of wife do you want!"

"Although there are many women in the world, there is only one wife. Marrying a wife is a life-long companionship between two people, and they must be together. You must choose the one carefully. If you can't find one, you will be comfortable alone."

"...Young master, you have to marry a wife! If you don't marry a wife, wouldn't the family be destitute?" Zixian said nervously.

"Didn't Zixian also say that he won't marry a wife? You are the only son in your family. If he doesn't marry a wife, won't he be extinct?" Li Qianchen parroted.

"This is different. Master, you are the master and I am a servant!" Zi Xian defended with a red face.

"What's the difference? Everyone in this world is the same."

"If I meet the right one in the future, I will marry him."

Yundading returned to his yard, and the servant next to him came over and whispered a few words. After hearing this, his brows jumped wildly.

"Go and call the lady here. I have something to ask her."

Yundating waited in the courtyard for a while, and a girl wearing a red dress appeared in the small courtyard. The white snow on the ground made her even more enthusiastic, like a blazing fire.

"Dad, did you call me?" Yun Rujun stepped forward and said.

Wearing a gold butterfly hairpin on her waterfall-like black hair, the red and green gems inlaid on the butterfly wings sparkle like a butterfly flying.

Yun Dating looked at him, an old woman, who was surrounded by stars and the moon wherever she went.

Qian Chen is a good child, but this one in front of him...

well……

"The young master of the Li family came here just now." Yun Dating said, looking at Yun Rujun's face.

Yun Rujun immediately lost his face and let out a sigh, feeling as unhappy as a sun-dried flower.

"He came to cancel the engagement."

"Really, dad?" Yun Rujun asked happily, his eyes shining.

Yundating sighed helplessly.

"I haven't promised him yet! I want to ask you what you mean first, are you willing?"

"Of course I am willing! Why should I marry into the Li family? He can't even protect his ancestral home. What if I get bullied by marrying him?" Yun Rujun curled her lips and said to this person.

Not very satisfied.

"Want to meet him?"

"I don't want to! Dad, please break off the engagement! You can marry anyone you want, don't marry me to him!" Yun Rujun said, shaking her father's sleeves.

"Dad knows."

Yundating felt helpless.

Although the Li family has been ruined, their wealth is still there.

It is common for wealthy families to have concubines, and there are even more conflicts in the back house.

The Li family has a strict family tradition, and there are no elders around. Li Qianchen has a good temperament, a talented person, and is well-read in poetry and books, surpassing countless talents in Cangxing Mansion.

He originally thought that after marrying his daughter off, he would be able to ensure that his daughter would not be wronged throughout her life if her own family members were around.

Now it seems that his daughter is not so lucky.

"Dad knows. I will go to him later to exchange for tokens!"

"Thank you, Dad, you really love me!" Yun Rujun happily walked out of the yard, walking in the wind.

Even if the marriage doesn't work out, if the old friend's children come to visit, they can always have a meal together.
