In ancient times, I made a fortune by copying my family

Chapter 219
Ling Chu ignored Dong's anger and did not defend himself.

She directly revealed Zhao Jingming's true face, "Grandfather, grandmother, father, and mother, you all say that the prince of Zhao Guogong is a good match, but he not only likes to visit brothels and drink wine, but he also redeemed his body for someone in a small official house and raised him. In the house outside..."

However, before she could finish her words, Mr. Dong interrupted her with an annoyed expression, "Where did you hear these rumors? The prince of Zhao Guogong is of such good character, how could he do such ridiculous things! You are really getting more and more ridiculous. , the engagement will be broken off even if it is based on rumors."

"This is not a rumor. I saw it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears..."

With an angry look on her face, Ms. Dong slapped her palm on the table again, "That's enough. You are a shameless girl. How can you say such a thing? Don't say that this kind of thing is not true, even if it is true. , how can it be possible for you to see it with your own eyes and hear it with your own ears!"

Being interrupted again and again, Ling Chu's eyes turned cold, "I wasn't the only one who saw Zhao Jingming sleeping on the bed with the official, even Mrs. Zhongqin Bo and her daughter also saw it.

Not only them, many maids and women in Uncle Zhongqin's house saw it with their own eyes, and many outsiders also saw it.If you don't believe it, you can ask people to inquire outside. "

Ling Chu didn't worry at all that they wouldn't be able to find out.

Even if Mrs. Zhongqin wanted to suppress this matter for the sake of her daughter, it was impossible to keep everyone's mouths shut.

After all, there were many outsiders who saw Zhao Jingming sleeping on the bed with the official.

Originally, Mrs. Dong really thought that Ling Chu lied about Zhao Guogong's eldest son supporting a minor official in order to break off the engagement.

It was obvious that Ling Chu didn't look like he was lying, so he couldn't help but become suspicious.

Then Zhao Jingming actually acted like this, even if he secretly supported a minor official, why did he still make it known to everyone?
Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Dong frowned and said nothing.

Ling Shangshu naturally did not want Ling Chu to cancel the marriage like this, but as a grandfather, it was not easy for him to discuss such things with his granddaughter.

He just said quietly, "Sister Chu, this is not a big deal. Zhao Jingming is still young, so it is inevitable that he will do random things. Let your father have a good talk with him one day, and he will naturally stop doing random things in the future."

Ling Chu knew that her grandfather would not agree to her breaking off the engagement so easily, and she was not angry about it.

But she won't give up just yet.

"Grandfather, grandmother, the prince of Zhao Guogong is not a good match. Not only does he keep a small official, but he also has an affair with the eldest girl of Zhongqin's house without a matchmaker or a betrothal..."

Although Ling Chu looked serious, Mrs. Madam's face was filled with doubts, "Is this serious?"

"The eldest daughter of Uncle Zhongqin's Mansion is pregnant, and the child is Zhao Jingming's..."

Dong once again interrupted Ling Chu categorically, "This is impossible."

Although she had been fostered in a Taoist temple since she was a child, she was not close to her biological mother.But Ms. Dong would rather believe an outsider than her own daughter, which is really heartbreaking.

It's a good thing that she is not the original owner.

Ling Chu glanced at her coldly, then turned directly to Ling Shangshu and Mrs. Ling, "Grandpa, grandmother, everything I said is true. Uncle Zhongqin's house is waiting for us to cancel the engagement so that the eldest daughter Guo Rong can marry Give it to Zhao Jingming."

The madam didn't get angry, she just frowned, "Even if this is true, the eldest girl of Zhongqin's Mansion is nothing to worry about. Sister Chu, you have an engagement with Duke Zhao's Mansion, and the eldest concubine of Duke Zhao's Mansion The position can only be yours, no one else can take it away.

Even if Zhao Jingming takes that Guo Rong, she can only be a concubine. "

Before Ling Chu could speak again, Mrs. Tai followed up and said, "Sister Chu, you grew up in a Taoist temple and don't understand many things. For this man, marrying a wife and taking concubines is a completely normal thing. You You can’t break off the engagement just because of this.”

Although Ling Zong felt that Zhao Jingming was getting involved with the eldest girl of Uncle Zhongqin's house before he married, which made him angry, but what his mother said was also true, and he couldn't say anything.

Ling Chu had long expected that breaking off the engagement would be opposed by everyone. Mr. Dong would not approve, and neither would the wife.

"But grandma, Uncle Zhongqin and his wife are the eldest brothers and sisters-in-law of Mrs. Zhao Guogong. Do you think they will let their eldest daughter become a concubine to Zhao Jingming?" Mrs. Dong really thought that what Ling Chu said was false at first, but Seeing that she was talking so eloquently, I couldn't help but start to doubt, could it be that Zhao Jingming was really getting along with his cousin?

Dong frowned and wondered how to deal with this matter.

Mrs. Dong glanced at Ms. Dong who had her head lowered, wondering what the eldest daughter-in-law was thinking at this time.

He frowned and said to Ling Chu, "Sister Chu, you don't have to worry about this. Since the marriage has been decided, they can't change it if they want."

"Grandma, if our Ling Mansion is still the House of the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, there is no need to worry. But now we are just common people, and Zhongqin Bo Mansion is an official.

Do you think the Zhao Guogong Palace will agree to let me be the crown prince's concubine to the eldest son of Zhao Guogong?

Also, if Uncle Zhongqin’s Mansion threatens the child in Miss Guo’s belly, Guo Rong must be made Zhao Jingming’s eldest concubine. Think about it carefully, what will Duke Zhao’s Mansion choose? "

The madam pursed her lips. There was no need to think carefully about the choice.

If she were the wife of Duke Zhao, she would definitely choose Guo Rong.

Everyone in the world values ​​their heirs, so how could Duke Zhao be willing to give up his own bloodline.

Moreover, if you marry Guo Rong, you can get closer to Uncle Zhongqin.

Looking at the look on Mrs. Tai's face, Ling Chu knew that she didn't need to say anything to understand, but she still said, "Ten thousand steps back, even if I can marry the Crown Prince of Zhao, but with Guo Rong's existence, with her Regarding my relationship with Mrs. Zhao Guogong and Zhao Jingming’s love for her, do you think I can compete with her?

If I am not favored, even if I am the eldest concubine of Duke Zhao's palace, I will not be able to bring any help to my younger siblings at home.Grandma, do you think this kind of marriage is really what you want? "

The madam didn't want her to break off the engagement. On the surface, she said it was for her own good.

But in fact, he just wanted to use this marriage to benefit everyone in the Ling family.

As for who Ling Chu marries, it doesn't matter. No one cares whether she lives a happy life or not.

However, marrying Ling Chu into the Duke of Zhao's mansion would not bring any benefits to the Ling mansion. They would have to make other plans for this marriage.

Ling Shangshu and the others were still weighing the matter, but Ling Hao, who had been frowning, spoke first, "Grandpa, grandmother, father and mother, since Zhao Jingming is not a good match, it's better to call off the marriage. You can't know that it is a fire pit, and it is not a good match." Let the eldest sister jump in."

In the entire Ling family, apart from the two maids around Ling Chu, this eldest brother was the only one who still had some sincerity towards her.

Although he felt regretful, his son spoke up, and Ling Zong could only say, "Father, mother, let's forget about this marriage."

At this point, Ling Mao knew that this marriage had no meaning, so it was better to make other plans as soon as possible.
