Chapter 43 Mrs. Tang Seng

   Silence, absolute silence.

   Without Mrs. Bai's continuous output, Ji Que only felt that the whole world was quiet.

   This feeling is undoubtedly relieved because the principal finally finished his three points.

   A gust of wind blew, and the flower arrangement on the table swayed slightly.

  Madam Bai's slightly parted red lips closed, with a face full of fear: "What did you just say?"

Ji Que took out the engagement letter in his arms, and said, "Auntie, you are right. How can the decisions of the older generation restrict people today? Miss Bai is a dragon and a phoenix among people, and she is the one among thousands." One is a genius in practice, and the other is just an ordinary student who studies, and it is difficult to hold a candle to him in his whole life, and he dare not climb high, so don't force it."

  He answered politely, but the maid next to him still hasn't reacted yet.

  Why is it different from what you imagined?

The maid couldn't help thinking: "Maybe I misunderstood him. It's not that he is not greedy, but he is more short-sighted than imagined. He probably wants some money to compensate. This can't be his fault. People from small places are poor again." So long.

  Hmph, it must be like this. "

  At this time, Mrs. Bai came back from thinking about it, and tried to ask: "How about the kindness of this half sesame seed cake?"

Ji Que hurriedly said: "This sesame seed cake is just a sesame seed cake after all. I think the Bai family has a big business, so why don't you give me back ten sesame seed cakes, no, how about a hundred? Spreading the word is also a kindness of dripping water. Quan has reported."

  At first, I just figured it out, thinking that Ji Que was short-sighted, and the eyes of the maid who wanted the lion to open his mouth for money froze again, and a "?" slowly appeared on the forehead again.

   Do you want sesame seed cakes? How could it be biscuits!

   For a moment, the entire hall fell into a mysterious silence again.

   A moment later, the thoughtful Mrs. Bai shook her head and said, "No, this marriage cannot be withdrawn."

  Ji Que's heart trembled, and he said, "Auntie, retiring the marriage shouldn't be so troublesome, right? As long as you and uncle agree, there is no reason for children not to obey."

  Madam Bai said lightly: "Nephew Ji Xian, this matter is not that simple."

  Ji Que: "???"

   "If you really took the sesame seed cakes from my house and divorced, what would people outside say about our Bai family? It must be that our Bai family bullied others, disregarded the old man's last wish, humiliated people with sesame seed cakes, and broke the engagement.

   At that time, rumors will spread all over the city, where will my Bai family's face be put? In the end, in order to save face, not only had to continue to fulfill the marriage contract, but there were probably other troubles as well. " Madam Bai analyzed seriously.

  The servant girl next to him suddenly realized that his heart was indeed that his wife was smart, and this young man had hidden his thoughts deeply. It seemed that he was innocent on the first floor, but he was actually hiding murderous intentions on the third floor.

  Ji Que looked shocked, and said: "Auntie, not many people know about this engagement, and I proposed the dissolution of the engagement. If you don't tell me, I won't tell you, how can it spread all over the city?"

  Madam Bai showed a half-smile expression, and said: "It's not that there are no people in this city who know about this engagement. Everyone in the family knows that Father was drunk and talked nonsense back then. Who knows who he told."

   "Then I will make a written proof that I am the one who proposed the dissolution of the engagement." Ji Que said.

Mrs. Bai shook her head and said: "The outside world will say that we forced you to make this evidence. After all, the gap between you and Lingshuang is too big. No matter how you dissolve this engagement today, the outside world will think We made you do it."

   "Can outsiders manage so well?"

  Ji Que found that things were not as simple as he imagined, and the eyes that had seen hope lost their spirit again.

   "You don't know how powerful the big mouths of those boring people outside and the things written by major writers can make you vomit blood." Madam Bai said with a look of jealousy.

   It can be seen that this big family has a lot of reputation.

  But I'm here to call off the engagement.

   At this point, Ji Que could no longer calm down, and said: "Auntie, I'm telling the truth, I can't help but fail to be a scholar, and it's even more unlucky."

   "Unlucky?"

"I often step on **** when I go out. Flying bricks will hit me, and bamboo poles will pierce me. I either encounter thieves or robbing gangsters. I even encountered tigers during outings. People like me have something to do with the White House." , didn't it drag down the White House?" Ji Que said with a sincere expression.

  Puff!

  Puff!

  Madam Bai and the servant girl laughed out loud at almost the same time.

After all, Mrs. Bai came from a rich family, she quickly stopped her smile, and said, "Nephew, why do you say such nonsense jokes. Besides, if you are really so unlucky, how old Mr. Ji treated my Bai family Grace, we absolutely have no reason not to help you."

   "Master knows some famous Taoists and eminent monks, maybe they can help you."

  Hearing this, Ji Que almost vomited blood.

  How is the divorce plot different from the imagined plot?

   "Then Auntie, how can I divorce?" Ji Que said still unwillingly.

Mrs. Bai took a sip of tea slowly, and said: "According to what I said at the beginning, nephew, you have gained a higher starting point, which means you have accepted the favor of my Bai family. After a few years, if you and Lingshuang still get along too badly, It's not too late to choose to retire.

   At that time, when you get a higher status and achievement, our Bai family will try our best to repay the kindness, and others will not say anything more. "

   Ji Que looked confused, and secretly said: "But I don't want to do this."

  His current goal in life is to travel, not to get promoted and get rich.

  Ji Que couldn't help but said: "Madam, what if this junior insists on retiring the engagement today?"

   "That's really not refundable, even if the master comes."

"why?"

   "That girl Lingshuang has been independent since she was a child, and we have little or no control over her affairs. You know, she is much more popular than me and the master now."

  Ji Que covered his tight chest, and said, "You can't make up your mind, why are you talking so much to me?"

  Madam Bai said: "Nephew, although you and I have met for the first time, after all, you are an old friend, and you are a newcomer, so it is necessary to give some guidance. You can stay at the house for a few days, I will like every day"

   "No need! May I ask when Miss Lingshuang will return home?"

  He thought that if he stayed here, Mrs. Bai would probably have to give him endless explanations, which would be very frustrating, so he wouldn't dare to stay any longer.

  Ji Que finally understood one thing, that is, the communication before was all in vain, this matter can only be found by the right owner.

  He miscalculated Bai Lingshuang's status and right to speak at home.

  The so-called parental orders are only valid for ordinary people.

  Madam Bai took another sip of tea, and said unhurriedly: "Lingshuang is traveling and practicing, I really don't know about it, at least it will take a month or two."

  Ji Que quickly cupped his hands and said, "Auntie, I won't bother you again after Miss Bai comes back."

   Seeing that Mrs. Bai was about to speak again, he immediately walked out without looking back.

  Just as he walked to the yard, Ji Que paused and looked to the right.

  There, a girl leaned out, with excitement and shyness in her eyes, and said, "Brother-in-law."
