Chapter 1261 Just Want to Break Off the Engagement

Mrs. Hou was really pissed off by Dai Xu.

Her eyes turned red and she stopped.

"You want to force me to death!"

Dai Xu had been running in circles, but when he saw her like this, he stopped and lowered his head.

"But I'm so afraid of her," he said.

Lu Zhaoling and Zhou Shiyue walked in and sat down.

Qingyin and Qingbao also brewed some tea and brought it over.

"Mrs. Dai, why don't you sit down and have some tea first?" Lu Zhaoling sighed.

Just now she stood there and looked at Dai Xu's face, and then looked at his wife's, and she had to say that this marriage might be difficult to make.

But this matter is really not easy to deal with.

"Mom, please sit down." Dai Xu helped his mother sit down and offered her tea.

The marquis's wife took the teacup and tears started flowing down her face.

"Tell me, I'm just a delicate girl, what are you afraid of?"

In fact, Dai Xu had told her and the Marquis two days ago that he felt the second young lady of the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion was a little scary, and asked them if the marriage could be postponed for the time being.

But the date has already been set, how can it be postponed?

At that time, the Marquis scolded Dai Xu and rejected his request. But he didn't expect that Dai Xu would say that he wanted to cancel the engagement.

"I don't say it's bad either, that's why I came to see Miss Lu." Dai Xu looked at Lu Zhaoling.

When he looked over like this and faced each other face to face, Lu Zhaoling examined his face more closely.

This is such a powerful evil spirit.

Lu Zhaoling spoke.

"Prince Dai, how did you feel when you first met the young lady from the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion?"

Madam Hou took a deep breath and patted Dai Xu. "Since Miss Lu has asked, then you should explain it in detail."

She had accepted her fate. If they really provoked the King of Jin and their Runan Marquisate lost all its wealth, she and the Marquis would grow their own vegetables and then kick the brat to the street corner to perform. She would probably be able to support herself.

Dai Xu then started talking about the second young lady of the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion.

The first time Dai Xu secretly looked at the lady, he was actually a little shocked by her beauty.

"I have met the eldest daughter of the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion quite a few times. She has also been in the capital."

Dai Xu said, "I'm not saying anything bad about her, but that young lady is really very average looking."

The Marquis's wife glared at him. Dai Xu flinched and said defensively, "That's right. Can't I tell the truth?"

"When I heard that her sister was going to be promised to me, I thought, since they are sisters, and the elder sister looks like that, the younger sister must not be pretty either."

Perhaps because of this preconceived idea, Dai Xu has already determined that the second young lady is also ugly.

Seeing that the Second Miss was much prettier than he had imagined, this feeling of exceeding his expectations made him fall in love with her at first sight and was somewhat amazed.

"I didn't expect she was so pretty at the time. Of course I would marry her if she was pretty. Otherwise, I would be so upset if I married an ugly girl."

Dai Xu's righteous tone made Qingyin and Qingbao want to beat him up.

"But I saw her again a few days ago." Dai Xu said this with a look of fear in his eyes, as if the second young lady of the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion appeared in front of him again.

He began to tremble all over and seemed really scared.

"She was turning a corner in the alley, and a brother and sister ran over there and almost bumped into her."

Dai Xu's mind resurfaced with that scene, and then he shuddered, his face turning pale.

The Marquis's wife was also worried, "Could it be that she scolded the brother and sister?"

Of course she had seen the girl before, and her impression of her was that she was gentle and delicate, but also tactful and treated her neither servilely nor arrogantly.

Anyway, she likes it very much.

Could it be that the girl has two faces?

Is he actually a fierce person in private?

Madam Hou thought so, this kind of thing is not uncommon, at most she could have made a mistake. If this were the case, she would indeed feel a little uncomfortable, but as long as the other party was not a ruthless person, it would be okay if he was a little more vicious.

It is acceptable not to be gentle and virtuous.

At most, the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a little tense, but the Marquis will definitely protect her. Is she afraid of a new daughter-in-law?

Maybe only a more aggressive one can control Dai Xu.

The Marquis's wife calmed herself down in no time and looked at Dai Xu with a reproachful look.

"It's better to be more violent..."

"No!" Dai Xu's face turned paler and paler. "She's not fierce, she's not fierce, not fierce."

"She gently helped the brother and sister up. She also told them to be careful because bumping into people can be dangerous."

Dai Xu thought about the situation at that time and immediately looked at Lu Zhaoling, "Ms. Lu, do you know what happened? She was clearly smiling and talking softly to the two children, but the two children looked at her, trembling and staring with fear."

"I saw fear on their faces. They looked terrified when they saw someone smiling like that!"

"I was also shocked. After she left, the two children stood there for a long time, just standing there motionless. Don't you think this is weird?"

"I just felt it was very strange, so I just kept watching there, wanting to see how they ended up. But later they seemed to be fine, and the two children went home. I even followed them to their house and saw them sweeping the floor and cooking."

"I saw that nothing happened and wondered if I had seen it wrong. But the next day I couldn't help but go to that house to see the two children. I heard that the two children had nightmares all night. They were shouting and screaming all night, scratching themselves hard, and kept saying sorry and shouldn't have bumped into you!"

After hearing what he said, Lu Zhaoling and the others looked at each other, and they all felt that something was wrong.

"I saw those two children. In just one day, they had lost a lot of weight. They looked like they had been squeezed dry. They were much shriveled, their eyes were dull, and they looked listless."

"But," Dai Xu became excited again, "before they bumped into the second daughter of the Pingyang Earl that day, they were obviously normal children! They just bumped into her because they were naughty and active."

Dai Xu was afraid that Lu Zhaoling would not believe him. "Miss Lu, I can take you to see the two children. They are a pair of siblings. One is eight years old, and the other should be four years old!"

“I don’t know what will happen to them in the future…”

Dai Xu was really scared by this incident.

"But I have no evidence to say that Miss Pingyang caused them to be like this, because I clearly saw her gently helping them up and she didn't do anything else afterwards. I just couldn't help but be afraid of her."

The Marquis's wife was also shocked when she heard this.

"This, this sounds a bit weird, doesn't it?"

If that was the case, she was a little scared.

Lu Zhaoling looked at Dai Xu and was silent for a while before saying, "I don't see that you have a short life or a sudden death."

Madam Hou felt relieved when she heard this. "Could it be an accident? A coincidence? It should be fine?"

But Lu Zhaoling continued, "However, this marriage is indeed a disaster."
