บท 540: Chapter 280 Hanging_1

A few days ago, Old Duke Liang brought the matchmaker, Prince Consort Pan, to the Qian family, aiming to formally settle the marriage arrangement between Liang Jinzhao and Qian Yixiu.

Prince Consort Pan sneered, "Old Duke Liang, your family is of noble and wealthy heritage, and your granddaughter-in-law is the esteemed daughter of the Cui family. The Qian family, on the other hand, are peasants from the countryside with no foundation, and my Pan family is almost of commoner status. My granddaughter is not good enough for your grandson."

Liang Zechong was taken aback. How had the matter he'd been so confident about taken such a turn? He said angrily, "Are you thinking of calling off the engagement?" Then he asked Qian Sangui and Qian Manjiang, "Do you share this view?"

Qian Sangui said, "I can't bear to let Xiu'er marry into hardship."

Qian Manjiang also said, "Xiu'er has already suffered so much. I can't bear the thought of her suffering for the rest of her life."
