Married To The Male Lead's Father (Translation)

CHAPTER 24

The restaurants and teahouses in the capital were quite lively.

Recently, the gossip about Duke Ding's Mansion has been coming out one after another, and the people were very excited.

Today, no one knows who spread the news that the Eldest daughter of the Marquis Anyuan Mansion visited Duke Ding's Mansion just after her engagement, and also vividly described the scene in which Duke Ding angrily rebuked Young Lord Xie.

For being unfilial and unjust, he was punished with fifty strikes and kneeling in the ancestral hall for three days. Everyone who listened to the gossip was very excited.

Thanks to Yan Shuqing, everyone in the capital now knows the ins and outs of the engagement between Lord Xie and Fourth Miss Jiang.

The reputation of the handsome, noble and glorious Lord Xie suddenly fell from the clouds.

If he was only responsible for breaking off the engagement for another woman, everyone would understand, but he was also ungrateful and treacherous.

He clearly had more than one solution, but he chose the most ruthless one.

This was unacceptable.

The Eldest daughter of the Anyuan Hou Mansion had also become a beauty scourge among the public, and there are faint rumors that Miss Yan and Lord Xie are not compatible.

If it hadn't been for Miss Yan's insistent questioning, no one would have known that the original engagement between Fourth Miss Jiang and Lord Xie, and the marriage between the two families were a life-saving grace.

No wonder they wrote and notarized the marriage contract so carefully.

Everyone sympathized with Fourth Miss Jiang again.

Today, Duke Ding personally escorted Fourth Miss Jiang back to her home with his guards.

Everyone suddenly realized that he might be supporting Fourth Miss Jiang in this matter, and at the same time they were a little bit disappointed.

They thought there was something going on between Fourth Miss Jiang and Duke Ding.

It turns out all the joy was in vain.

The gossips were so exciting that the business of the restaurant and teahouse has been booming recently.

Every day, the teahouses were packed with guests, and it's bosses and shopkeepers are all full of smiles.

"Does anyone think that Miss Yan is an awful person?"

"I don't know whether she is an awful person or not, but there is no doubt that she is a bad person. If she hadn't made such a fuss today, no one would have known that Fourth Miss's mother saved the lives of Lord Xie and the Second Madame of the Xie family and that Fourth Miss Jiang was actually cheated by them. If it wasn't for Miss Yan's insistence, Lord Xie's reputation would not have plummeted."

"Brother, you are right. Miss Yan is a nuisance, and she is not compatible with Lord Xie."

"Fourth Miss Jiang, has a good character. Although she was bullied to the point of breaking off the engagement and had her reputation ruined, she didn't even reveal this matter. However, Miss Yan, who had just become engaged to Lord Xie, refused to give up and questioned her. Fourth Miss Jiang had no choice but to reveal the old story. Life is unpredictable."

"Who knows whether the life-saving grace is true or not? Maybe Fourth Miss Jiang is talking nonsense and deliberately smeared Lord Xie's reputation."

Someone said in disapproval.
