Chapter 782

Chapter 782

Now that he has become the head of the county, he has turned around.

He regretted it again.

What would "Shen Wan" think of him?

Hasn't he really become a villain who makes the most of things according to the circumstances?

"How come you didn't hear anything about such a big thing when I came back? You kid... It's such a big matter of marriage and it's your parents' order. How could you come to your door and ask for an end to the engagement like this?"

The second lady looked dissatisfied with her failed plan and couldn't help but blame her.

Chu Yuanqi resisted the urge to curse and turned his head away with a cold face.

Zhenbeihou said: "This is my son's marriage. I, as the father, have the final say. Second brother, younger brothers and sisters, please don't worry about it. Go back first!"

"Brother..." The second lady wanted to say more.

Zhenbeihou directly picked up the teacup.

Serve tea as a farewell to guests.

The second lady shut up in silence, and the second master also stood up: "In that case, let me make my own decision. My younger brother, I will go back first."

"I won't send it away," said Zhenbei Hou.

After the couple left.

Chu Yuanqi's suppressed anger burst out: "Dad, did the second uncle and second aunt stretch their hands too far? What do they mean?"

Zhenbei Hou said angrily: "What else can it mean? It's just profitable."

He, the younger brother of a concubine, was incompetent in both civil and military affairs and had no great abilities.

But he is only good at business.

The wife he married was also the daughter of an imperial merchant. It can be said that the couple had similar interests and hit it off immediately.

The brotherly relationship between Zhenbeihou and the second master can only be regarded as average, but they are brothers after all, and they will not reach the stage of turning against each other.

The Marquis of Zhenbei, like the former Marquis of Nanyang, is a hereditary title passed down from generation to generation.

The Marquis of Zhenbei who inherited the title was the legitimate son of the eldest son of the mansion. The only son Chu Yuanqi would also inherit the position of Marquis of Zhenbei in the future, so he was called the Little Marquis.

The eldest brother and the second brother are brothers, and they are also mutually bound alliances of interests.

The second master has no ability to be an official, but he is good at doing business. He can continuously earn money like a cornucopia and provide a comfortable life for everyone in the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.

on the contrary.

The Marquis of Zhenbei has a stable position in the officialdom, and can also provide shelter to the second wife, so that no one dares to offend.

As the saying goes - it's good to enjoy the shade under a big tree.

Therefore, the second wife and her husband would not intentionally harm the Chu family. If they wanted to live a high-ranking and wealthy life, they would work hard to protect the interests of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.

Zhenbeihou is a big tree, and the second house is a hozen perched on the big tree.

The tree fell and the hozens scattered.

This is a community of interests.

"It is the nature of businessmen to seek profit. In the eyes of your second uncle and second aunt, it is a very cost-effective business to sacrifice your reputation to get a wife for the county head for the Chu family. They have no intention of harming you, they just think that , it’s just profitable.”

Zhenbeihou said calmly.

Chu Yuanqi said with a disgusted look on his face: "They are using my marriage to do business, and I still have to endure it?"

He was so angry that he suddenly looked at Zhenbei Hou: "Dad, you are not really persuaded by them, are you? I have promised Shen Wan that I will break off the engagement, but you can't harm me!"

Zhenbei Hou raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you hate Shen Wan so much?"

"..."

Chu Yuanqi froze, and his expression changed strangely.

He turned his head and whispered: "It's not that I hate it..."
