Chapter 1975: Chapter 1975: Gan Family Second Sister
Gan Yujingâs face darkened, her expression becoming unpleasant.
After a while, she snorted coldly, "What else could it be? Sister-in-law is still complaining about the family I introduced to my fourth brother last time."
"Miss, you canât be blamed for that. Life and death are unpredictable, who knew the lady from that family would pass away and theyâd blame the Fourth Young Master? When you were choosing a match for the Fourth Young Master, you put in so much effort and concern. How come at the end, you are the one being blamed?"
"Enough, donât say anymore," Gan Yujing impatiently interrupted her.
The old woman shrunk her neck and asked in a small voice, "Miss, I, I also heard some news."
"Speak."
"I heard that the other party is not from the prefecture; theyâre from the county town. I donât know what their family does, but they definitely donât compare to our family. It was quite unexpected."
Gan Yujingâs face turned even more unpleasant, "What do they mean by this?"
"Could it be that the Eldest Young Mistress knows youâve been close with Miss Cheng recently and intends to match Miss Cheng with the Fourth Young Master, so she wants to do it before you can..."
Gan Yujing suddenly clenched the handkerchief in her hand, "Just for that reason, they hastily decide on a match for my fourth brother, casually choosing a girl from the county town? Sheâs trying to ruin him!"
Gan Yujing could no longer bear it and flung her hand, "I must ask her if her previous claim to love my fourth brother was true. Is my brother even managing this situation? What is her true intention for doing this?"
Saying this, she directly strode towards the private room where Shu Yu and others were.
The old woman hurriedly followed.
No one knew that when they reached the private room door, Gan Yujing unexpectedly stopped and, halfway through raising her hand to knock, withdrew it again.
The old woman asked softly, "Miss, whatâs the matter?"
Gan Yujing pursed her lips and took a deep breath, "Forget it."
Even though it was just a few steps, those few steps were enough for her to calm down. She turned to go back, speaking as she walked, "There are still guests inside the private room now. If I enter recklessly, it wouldnât be good. After all, itâs a matter of the Gan Family, even if my relationship with Sister-in-law isnât great, I canât embarrass her in front of outsiders. If word gets out, people will only think the Gan Family is not harmonious. Iâll return to the Gan Family later and settle it behind closed doors."
"Miss, considering the bigger picture is good, but what if they make the match after this meeting? What about Miss Cheng then..."
"No, if they seriously intend to confirm it, they wouldnât do so here, and my brother wouldnât be absent," Gan Yujing glanced at her sideways, "Besides, Iâve only gone out to eat with Miss Cheng a few times, and I never brought up the issue of matching her with my fourth brother. Even if people talk about it, theyâd only think I have a good relationship with her, which wonât damage her reputation or make her overthink."
"Do you mean weâre done considering Miss Cheng? But the Cheng Family has connections in the imperial court, which would greatly benefit the Fourth Young Masterâs future prospects. Wouldnât it be a pity to miss out on this?"
"Alright, weâll discuss it after I get home and talk to my brother. Keep quiet about the Cheng Family, donât mention it to anyone. As long as you and I keep mum, thereâll be no gossip."
"Yes, Miss, youâre right," the old woman lowered her head, her eyes somewhat evasive.
Her hand, hanging beside her, shrunk into her sleeve, almost revealing the silver bracelet on her wrist.
This silver bracelet was given to her by Miss Cheng...
