Xiao Lingyue heard it immediately and followed the sound.
The old Marquis seemed to have just woken up, and when he learned of the farce in the front hall, he immediately asked his servants to help him over.
"You are not allowed to write any kind of book!" Before entering the door, the old marquis' old and angry voice came.
The servants blocking the entrance to the front hall hurriedly got out of the way.
Supported by two servants, the old Marquis walked in tremblingly. His face was pale, his hair was messy, and the black and blue bags under his eyes were lifeless. The only thing that remained unchanged was his sinister and shrewd eyes.
As soon as Shen Zhijiang saw his biological father coming, he suddenly felt a little scared: "Father..."
Aunt Hua also shrank her neck: "Old Marquis..."
The old Marquis glared at his son fiercely, and then looked at Xiao Lingyue: "Shen Wan, what do you want to make trouble again?"
"The old Marquis already knows, why bother to ask even though he already knows?" Xiao Lingyue sneered, feeling somewhat fortunate in her heart.
Fortunately, she acted quickly and didn't waste any time.
Otherwise, she might not be able to get the jade bracelet or the knot book once the old guy wakes up.
The affairs of the Shen family could not be hidden from the eyes and ears of the old Marquis, but he came a step too late after all.
Seeing the jade bracelet box and the knot-cutting book in Xiao Lingyue's hand, the muscles on the old Houye's face twitched, his expression was extremely ugly, and he forced a smile.
"Wan'er, grandpa knows that you are dissatisfied with your father, but after all we are a family, there is no need to make it so ugly! Grandpa knows that you are a good boy. It is all your father's fault. Be good and give the jade bracelet to grandpa. , Grandpa will make the decision for you!"
As he spoke, he winked.
The servants around him immediately walked towards Xiao Lingyue and wanted to take away the jade bracelet in her hand.
Xiao Lingyue directly blocked the servant's hand and took a step back: "Old Marquis, the matter is now over, there is no need to play this trick of pretending to be deaf and dumb, right?"
Old Marquis: "..."
Xiao Lingyue continued: "Last time at Xiangguo Temple, the young prince of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion came to block me, so I took him to see you. But you personally promised that when you return to Beijing, you will give the jade bracelet to you. Return it to the Chu family and dissolve the engagement between the two families."
Her eyes mocked: "It's only been two days, and you don't remember what you said?"
"Shen Wan!!" The old Marquis couldn't suppress his anger and roared, "I won't care about what happened last time. This engagement cannot be canceled. Give me the jade bracelet!"
"It's not you, the old Marquis, who has the final say whether to cancel the engagement or not."
Xiao Lingyue said coldly, "I want to break off the engagement, who can stop me?"
The furious murderous intent on Old Marquis's face could not be controlled: "So, do you insist on destroying the Shen family?"
Xiao Lingyue said: "What does breaking the engagement have to do with destroying the Shen family? Does the Shen family want to place all their hopes on an engagement?"
She sneered twice and said bluntly: "If this is the case, then the Shen family should be finished as soon as possible. There is no hope!"
She has never seen a noble family that does not rely on the success of its own men, but relies on the marriage of its daughters.
If it really reaches this point, it will only be a matter of time before the family collapses.
Xiao Lingyue only thought that the old Marquis was ridiculous and pitiful. He had lived a long life, but he didn't understand that marriage was always the icing on the cake and could not help him in times of need.
He clung to the engagement with Zhenbei Houfu as if it were a life-saving straw.
Extremely ridiculous.
The old Marquis did not argue with her and ordered with a sullen face: "Take her down and bring back the jade bracelet!"
Shen Zhijiang said sarcastically: "Father..."
The old Marquis glared at him: "Shut up, I'll deal with you later!" The most important thing now is to get the jade bracelet back and not fall into Shen Wan's hands.
Otherwise, Shen Wan would definitely go directly to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion to break off the engagement. Popular "" This chapter has been completed!
