Before she could finish her words, she heard Gu Jinlong speak in a calm voice, "Lady Chen, you were indeed right when you said that I was unlucky just now. There is one thing that the Chen family and I must clarify today. Please bear witness."

As she spoke, she looked around at the other ladies.

Mrs Wang suddenly stood up, her face full of anger, "Zhu'er, what are you doing? "Hurry up and leave!"

Madam Chen was so angry that her face turned ashen. "Let her speak!" What was there for her to explain to the Chen family? Today, when news of this matter spread, even you think that my Chen family has done anything to her! "

The surrounding people looked at each other in dismay. They didn't know what was going on. Those who were aware of what was going on all had expressions of watching a good show.

Lady Wang was anxious and angry. Her aunt's family had stolen her niece's fiance, so it wouldn't be nice if word of this got out, or in front of so many wives. If this girl made a ruckus, her Yang family couldn't afford to lose this person!

She was about to ask her wife to drag Gu Jinzhu out when she held a box in her hand and opened it in front of everyone.

Everyone looked over curiously, and saw that there was a beautiful piece of jade inside, sparkling and translucent. Under the light of the candle flame, it seemed to be circulating more and more clearly, showing that it was a rare piece of good jade.

Lady Chen and Matriarch Chen's expressions immediately changed, and they heard Qing Ling's voice, "This jade pendant was placed in the Chen family during my engagement with the Chen family, and it is said to be owned by the previous family wives. That day, the Chen family came to break off the engagement, but for some reason, they did not ask for the jade pendant. At that time, I wanted to keep watch for Grandmother, so I did not return in time.

As she spoke, she stepped forward and placed the wooden box on the table beside Lady Chen.

Lady Chen's face turned completely ugly. Of course, she knew that this jade pendant hadn't returned. She didn't like her son to be so preoccupied with this so-called eldest daughter of the Guo Family, but she was an abandoned daughter whose father had kicked her out of the family.

But unfortunately, her son was too stubborn. Although he agreed that she had annulled the marriage and changed her job to a girl from the Yang family, he refused to take the jade pendant back no matter what.

How could she not know what her son was thinking? She had originally planned to discuss this with Yang Shao after the Yang family's daughter passed through the gates.

Who would have thought that this little girl would return today? In front of so many gentry, when news of this got out, where would she put her face?

Lady Chen's anger surged up, and she snapped at the box, "No need, not everyone in my Chen family has the luck to take the jade. I just forgot before, you should also remember not to have anything to do with Yunze anymore!"

Before she could finish her sentence, Bea could no longer hold back her anger. What did she mean by "you are not allowed to have anything to do with Master Chen"? She spoke as if Miss Chen and Young Master Chen had something to do in the past. If word of this got out, how would her Miss still be able to conduct herself!

She took out a red piece of paper from her sleeve and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Then that's good, this is the marriage contract that your Chen family forgot to get back. They should have returned it to you before grandmother's spirit, but they were afraid that it would disturb the peace of the benefactor, but today it's the same, from now on, I have nothing to do with the Chen family!"

With a few "shua shua" sounds, she tore the paper into pieces. With a wave of her hand, a cloud of red paper scattered in front of Lady Chen like butterflies.

The crowd was stunned. When had they ever seen such a scene? Didn't they say that the Chen Clan was the first to end the engagement? But now, the marriage contract had been thrown at her face by someone else, and it was still at the engagement ceremony of a new bride.

With Lady Chen's status, how could she have suffered such humiliation? In an instant, she flew into a rage and pointed at Gu Jinzhu with eyes that spewed fire, but was unable to say anything. "You … "You!"

Matriarch Chen clutched at her chest as she coughed, unable to even catch her breath as she cried out, "Pearl, why are you …"

The maidservant behind her was thrown into chaos as she hurriedly rushed over to give the matriarch water to beat her chest. She repeatedly called out, "Old madam, please don't be angry …" "Please don't be angry …"

née Wang was so angry that her entire body trembled, she never expected Gu Jinzhu would dare to do such a thing. Just as she was about to command her maidservant to stop her, a shadow suddenly rushed over and grabbed towards Gu Jinzhu, cursing loudly, "You slut, I'll beat you to death …"

Bee immediately rushed out from behind Gu Jinzhu and clawed bravely at the same spot as Yang Qianyu.

When Lady Wang saw the person who charged over, her eyes darkened and she almost fainted.

Her precious daughter, she dared to pull up her arms and curse in front of so many noble madams. Although she was already engaged, how would the Chen family see her in the future? Did she even want her reputation!?

Anxious and furious, she no longer cared about Gu Jinzhu and hastily called the servant girl to separate the two people who were tangled together.

The room was in a mess. The Chen family was giving out first aid, consoling them, and fighting was going on again. The ladies of the aristocratic families were hiding at the side, feeling both surprised and amused.

Lady Wang was so angry that she almost fainted. The room was in such a mess. If the men outside found out, the old master would skin her alive!

She viciously looked at Gu Jinzhu, who was standing on the spot with her hands folded like nothing had happened, and hardened her heart. Forget it, since I've already lost all the face in the Yang family, how could I allow such a lowly son of a bitch to court me again?

Seeing that her daughter's hair had been scratched into a disorderly mess, her anger rose from her heart. She shouted towards the outside, "They're all dead! Why aren't you coming in and grabbing this bitch!?"

A few rough women rushed in and grabbed Gu Jinzhu without a word. Bee was pinned to the wall, panting and glaring at them.

Yang Qianyu's hair was in disarray and her body was covered in blood from being scratched. She touched her face, saw the blood on her fingertips, and immediately fainted with a scream.

Lady Wang was so angry that her entire body trembled. She hugged her daughter with heartache and anxiety, wishing very much that she could cut the two into pieces on the spot and shout again and again, "Hurry and drag these two lowly maidservants out, lock them in the woodshed first. We'll wait until we can report to the old master …" Line disposition.

She had yet to finish her last few words when a little girl lifted up the curtain and ran in quickly. She whispered a few words into Lady Wang's ear.

"What?" Lady Wang was startled, and before she could even attend to the entire hall of guests, her face suddenly changed color.

"Really?" she asked.

After receiving the little girl's confirmation, her brows furrowed and her expression kept changing.

Seeing that she no longer gave the order to punish Gu Jinzhu's master and servant, Lady Chen could not help but coldly say, "Your Yang family couldn't be thinking of protecting this niece, right?"

"How could this be …" Lady Wang smiled apologetically, "Madam, don't worry. The Yang family will never cover up this little girl's trouble!" "She has already sent someone to inform the old master that she is about to be brought in to interrogate him!"

"That's good!" "Today, the Yang family must come up with a plan for this matter. This lowly slave grew up in your family, if the Yang family doesn't give me an explanation, my Chen family has reason to doubt the character of the daughter that the Yang family raised. At that time, the marriage contract between the two families will be over!"
