After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official

Chapter 189

Li Ying'er returned to the Li Mansion crying. When Madam Li saw that she was not only beaten but also had to pay money to Gu Rou, she was furious and shouted that she would go to the Anding Marquis' Mansion to ask Li for an explanation.

Li Ying'er also knew the depth of the matter at this time, and hurriedly said, "Forget it, mother. I don't want to cause any trouble now. Gu Jin is crazy, and it will be bad if she comes out to bite me."

Every time she comes into conflict with Gu Jin, nothing good happens. She'll learn her lesson after suffering so many losses.

Li was still angry, so she called Shen Wuji over.

Li was quite satisfied with her son-in-law Shen Wuji. After a few pleasantries, she began to complain to him about her grievances.

"Ying'er really suffered a great injustice today. She originally wanted to share her joy with her cousins, but she was humiliated by Gu Rou and Gu Jin together. Her face was slapped red.

I have always held this child in my hands and have never touched her. I was so angry that I immediately wanted to go to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion to settle the score with them.

But Ying'er remembered your friendship with Gu Jin and would not let me swallow this grievance no matter what. "

She may not go to Gu Jin and Gu Rou to settle the score, but her fiancé Shen Wuji must take responsibility.

Mrs. Li thought that after she said this, Shen Wuji would immediately express his stance to distance himself from Gu Jin. However, Shen Wuji looked as if he had not woken up yet, and only said "Oh" after a long while.

Mrs. Li was a little annoyed, "Oh" what does that mean!

"It's understandable that you taught in Gu Jin's school to make a living, but now that you have achieved fame and are going to marry Ying'er, you don't have to go to school anymore." Seeing that he remained silent, Mrs. Li simply helped him choose.

Unexpectedly, Shen Wuji, who was listless just now, rejected it immediately after hearing this, "Miss Gu and I have an appointment, and I cannot regret it."

"It's a good thing that you value your promises, but sometimes you have to prioritize and make sacrifices when doing things." Madam Li couldn't hide her superior attitude. She looked at Shen Wuji with half-closed eyes and said, "A couple can only live a good life if they work together. If they hurt their relationship because of other people or other things, it will not be worth it, right?"

Although Shen Wuji was the top scholar, he was penniless. If he wanted to climb up the social ladder, he naturally needed the help of the Li family. Therefore, although Mrs. Li admired him to some extent, she still looked down on him.

Shen Wuji frowned, pondered for a while, and then bowed and said, "Madam, I understand."

Madam Li smiled, she knew...

"It seems that I am not a good match for Miss Li. Let's call off this marriage." Shen Wuji bowed and said, "I'll take my leave."

Shen Wu Ji turned around and left without any hesitation, shocking Mrs. Li so much that she opened her mouth for a long time without making a sound. By the time she reacted and asked someone to stop him, Shen Wu Ji was nowhere to be seen.

"Mad men, are they all crazy?" Mrs. Li was angry and anxious, pacing back and forth in the room.

Who in their right mind would give up such a good marriage for a teaching job?

How could their family see such a weirdo?

Madam Li was getting anxious when Li Ying'er came running in with a message from somewhere, crying, "Mother, what did you say to Mr. Shen? Why did he suddenly break off the engagement with me?"

"Ying'er, please listen to my explanation. I really didn't say anything..."

Li Ying'er cried even more sadly after hearing this, "I have already endured it for the sake of peace, why are you still saying all this to Shen Lang!

If this marriage doesn't work out, I really won't be able to face anyone again. I...I might as well just kill myself!"
