Not only that, the old won also said that the He Family girl Gan Yujing was interested in recently was undermined by Cheng Jiatong, who whispered in Gan Yujing’s ear, making Gan Yujing dissatisfied with the He Family girl.
Gan Yujing also learned from the old won that initially Cheng Jiatong intended to approach Ms. Liao since, after all, Ms. Liao, as the eldest sister-in-law, could more effectively make decisions regarding Gan Rui’s marriage.
But Ms. Liao is the Madam of the Gan Family, she is busy with dostic affairs and has two children to care for.
Especially after the poisoning incident by the concubine years ago, she beca particularly attentive to her children. Nini, who is just five this year, is in a lively and active phase, and Ms. Liao personally handles almost everything.
Thus, she rarely has ti to step outside; she rarely attends gatherings between wives and madams. It is challenging for Cheng Jiatong to approach her.
So, she set her sights on Gan Yujing, even bribing the old won around her to stir up discord between her and Ms. Liao, so that Gan Rui’s marriage would completely be in Gan Yujing’s hands.
However, what she did not expect was that, after a previous failed experience, Gan Yujing beca exceedingly cautious regarding Gan Rui’s marriage. Even though she was close to Cheng Jiatong, she did not give a vague answer to pair her with Gan Rui.
This made Cheng Jiatong sowhat anxious, prompting her to send the old won a bracelet to intensify their efforts.
After hearing what the old won had to say, Gan Yujing was utterly bewildered.
Cheng Jiatong always presented herself in front of her as innocent, cheerful, and lively, with an appearance of having no world knowledge. How could she be the sa person the old won described as deep in scheming and sinister?
Gan Yujing never thought she, at twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, would be manipulated like this by a teenage girl.
She was deeply vexed by Cheng Jiatong but relieved she did not pierce the veil of deception between them; keeping her distance in the future would do.
Yet, when it ca ti to sleep at night, she could not fall asleep, constantly feeling sothing was amiss.
As she pondered, she suddenly recalled Cheng Jiatong’s sudden departure during the day.
During the day, she, Cheng Jiatong, and two other ladies had planned a shopping outing and then had a al at the restaurant. During the al, the old won had reported good news to her.
She had left the room for a mont, and upon return, Cheng Jiatong had disappeared. Those at the table said she had left shortly after her.
At that ti, Gan Yujing was preoccupied with other matters, so she hadn’t paid much attention.
Now pondering it, Cheng Jiatong’s departure was exceedingly abrupt.
Gan Yujing thought of her disposition, feeling extrely uneasy. But it was too late last night; even if she wanted to find out, there was no ti.
However, at first light, Gan Yujing still sent soone to gather information.
Yesterday, Xia Yan carried so bound thugs and, together with Shu Yu, approached the Cheng Family. Many saw it happen.
Upon hearing this, Gan Yujing knew there was trouble. She then bribed a servant of the Cheng Family and learned of the events at the Cheng Family from him, causing her to feel utterly shocked.
Cheng Jiatong actually dared to bribe thugs to kidnap the county magistrate???
Ultimately, she was the one who brought this person here, leaving Gan Yujing extrely uneasy, thus she and Ms. Liao hurriedly ca to apologize.
Ms. Tao, after hearing the entire account, sighed a little.
The other party was sincere in attitude and explained the reasoning. Even if Ms. Tao wanted to be accused, it seed inappropriate.
Finally, all she said was, "I understand that you are innocent in this matter, but since you brought this trouble, should anything like this happen again..."
