I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

Chapter 39 My mother and sister are relatively gentle

"Sister, my sister wants to break off the engagement with the Duan family, but the Duan family disagrees. Seeing that my family is determined, Madam Duan even brought people to visit with bad intentions. Madam Duan has a very aggressive personality. My mother and sister are relatively weak, so they have to rely on you to help them. As long as they can hold out until my father returns home, that's all."

"This is a little gift from my brother, please don't despise it, sister."

Du Shaofeng took out a jade pendant with excellent water content and a gold ingot from his arms and handed them to Ning Zhiyi. The little girl couldn't bear to look away after seeing the peculiarly shaped gold. She liked gold, and she liked gold in the shape of a little tiger even more!

The system automatically unlocks the plot, [Host, go to the Du Mansion, there are melons to eat over there!]

Ning Zhiyi got the point of the system and immediately nodded in agreement, indicating that he was willing to go. He only took the gold with a peculiar shape and did not ask for the jade pendant. He played with the little tiger in his hand with great interest.

At the same time, Du Shaofeng breathed a sigh of relief. It was good to have some melons. What he feared most was having no melons!

The carriage was moving quickly on the official road. When the two rushed back to the Du Mansion, they saw several carriages parked in front of the door. Du Shaofeng frowned and walked quickly towards the mansion with Ning Zhiyi, and bumped into the housekeeper who was walking quickly out.

"Master, it's great that you're back. Madam Duan came with bad intentions. Master, please go back and help her."

The housekeeper saw Du Shaofeng as if he had seen a savior, and asked him to return home quickly, saying that the old master was angry and only the young master could deal with him.

"Okay, go and invite my dad." Du Shaofeng lowered his head and gave the housekeeper some instructions, then turned to look at Ning Zhiyi embarrassedly, "Sister, you've worked hard."

Ning Zhiyi waved her hand nonchalantly. She was good at arguing with people, and she liked things even more that allowed her to both argue with people and help them at the same time.

"Brother Du, let's go in quickly. How do you want this to end? I'll do as you ask." The girl looked serious, as if she was doing what her employer asked.

Du Shaofeng couldn't help laughing, and the depression in his heart dissipated a lot. He said casually: "That must be to let my sister cancel the engagement smoothly, and it would be best if it can also dampen the arrogance of the Duan family!"

Ning Zhiyi nodded to show that he understood. The two of them quickly rushed into the mansion. The system made a ding sound, [Unlock a new scene, start signing in, sign-in rewards, a Mantra Pill, acupuncture technique. ]

[Trigger the hidden task "Wishing lovers to finally get married", and reward "a taming pill". No matter what animal eats this pill, it will become intelligent, and can be connected to you, the host, and obey your commands. ]

Hearing this, Ning Zhiyi moved faster. She had long been tired of the ancient transportation. The only way to go out was to take a horse carriage or rely on the No. 11 bus, which was not convenient or fast at all.

She had learned horse riding before, but after only riding for half a day, her bottom hurt as if it had been broken into pieces. She had no choice but to give up riding. She thought she would have to rely mainly on her No. 11 bus in the future, but unexpectedly, there was a silver lining.

"Grandpa, you are the most reasonable person. You personally agreed to the marriage between my son and Shaoyun. Now my son has not made any mistakes and has not treated Shaoyun harshly. How can you cancel the engagement just like that? Now we can only count on you, Grandpa, to do us justice." Mrs. Duan's voice was very shrill, giving people an aggressive feeling.

Old Master Du's face turned red with shame and he glared at his eldest daughter-in-law Fang fiercely, believing that she was looking for trouble.

Having married into the Du family for so many years, how could Fang not know the old man's temper? He was narrow-minded, short-sighted, and easily influenced. She did not even give the old man a chance to speak, and attacked Madam Duan:

"Mrs. Duan is wrong. I broke off the engagement because I drew a bad fortune when I went to the temple to burn incense. The fortune teller said that this fortune should be used for our children's marriages, so the best policy is for both parties to marry separately!"

"Besides, concluding a marriage between two sexes is a matter of mutual consent. Now that we don't want to get married, are you going to force my Du family to marry off our daughter?"

Her daughter came to her crying that day and said she wanted to cancel the engagement. Her daughter was well-behaved and sensible since she was young. She must have suffered a great injustice from Duan Muyang to make this decision!

Fang didn't want to cause gossip, so she came up with a conventional reason to cancel the engagement.

This marriage was decided by the old man, and she could neither say that she was satisfied nor dissatisfied. Now that her daughter has been wronged, this marriage must be cancelled no matter who decided it!

Mrs. Duan Wan was furious when she heard Fang mention the temple. Fang had not been to the temple to burn incense in the past month. Where did this fortune-telling master come from? This was obviously Fang's excuse!

She couldn't break up with Fang, so she gave Xia Wanqing a hint, signaling her to speak.

Xia Wanqing stepped forward and took Fang's hand, with a naive look on her face, "Aunt, when did you ask the master to interpret the fortune? Why didn't Wanqing hear Shaoyun mention it?"

"I don't know which temple Auntie went to. As far as Wanqing knows, many small temples now deliberately say some unfounded things when interpreting the divination, and then make up false response strategies. The purpose is to attract pilgrims and defraud the incense money."

Fang glanced at Xia Wanqing coldly and drew her hand back. Her attitude was no longer as warm as before. She guessed that her daughter's grievances were probably related to Xia Wanqing.

She could see that Duan Muyang took care of Xia Wanqing and had reminded her daughter about it, but her daughter never took it to heart and even said that Xia Wanqing was her best sister. Seeing the trusting expression on her daughter's face, she didn't continue to say anything to spoil the fun. Unexpectedly, the thing she was most worried about still happened.

Xia Wanqing was not angry when she didn't get a response. She was thinking quickly about how to persuade the Du family to give up the idea. "Aunt, where is Shaoyun? Let me go and persuade her. Brother Duan has good character and family background. He is also a famous young talent in our capital. If we lose such a son-in-law, it will be a loss for the Du family."

"Shaoyun is young and full of vigor. You can't let her do everything."

"Since Duan Muyang is so outstanding, why don't you marry her yourself, Miss Xia? As far as I know, the Duan and Xia families had plans to discuss marriage last year. What happened that made Miss Xia unwilling to get engaged?"

Xia Wanqing suddenly turned around and looked towards the door, her eyes full of panic and ferocity, just meeting Ning Zhiyi's smiling face. She gritted her teeth in hatred. When she saw Ning Zhiyi, she thought of the humiliation she had suffered two days ago.

She will definitely avenge this!

Her eyes rolled, a plan came to her mind, she covered her mouth with her hands and said in surprise: "Miss Ning? Oh, I suddenly remembered that Shaoyun insisted on breaking off the engagement after meeting Miss Ning. Could it be that Miss Ning said something unfounded to Shaoyun?"

Xia Wanqing originally wanted to drag Ning Zhiyi into the water and let her attract Mrs. Duan's hatred, but unexpectedly, she hit the mark and actually guessed the reason.

"Well, it's you who is obstructing my granddaughter's marriage. The Du family doesn't welcome you. Someone, come and kick her out." Old Master Du shouted angrily, and Master Du at the side hurriedly calmed him down, looking like a good and filial son.

"Ms. Ning, I'm sure you've heard it too. Why don't you leave quickly?"

"Stop! Stop it, Master Du, just stand over there and talk. I have a very sensitive nose, but I can't stand the "influence" of your body fragrance.

Mr. Du raised his foot as if it weighed a thousand pounds, because he could not finish this sentence, and his face turned red. He recalled that nightmare moment, the stench, the sticky feeling...

"Ugh! Ugh!"

Unable to hold it back, he lay down and vomited wildly.
