Chu Yonghua ignored her. “An’er, close the door.”

“Yes, Father.’

After closing the door, Chu Yonghua asked about Chu Qingxiang.

It turned out that he did not get the news from the village, but that Chu An happened to meet the Third Miss of the Wang family and Song Lu in the county today.

It was not appropriate to say that they were meeting. It was the servant girl of the Wang Family’s Third Miss who pulled Song Lu to the sedan chair parked by the Wang family’s roadside.

Song Lu did not want to go. Although he was at the entrance of the alley, there were still many people who saw him.

The others did not know Song Lu, so they did not care about him.

However, Chu An knew him and stayed for a while longer out of curiosity. He saw the curtain of the sedan chair being lifted, revealing the face of the Wang family’s Third Miss.

Although Chu An did not directly know the people from the wealthy families in the county, he knew their names.

Song Lu was Chu Qingxiang’s fiancé, but he was meeting with the Song family’s Third Miss.

It seemed like they were very familiar with each other. Chu An was shocked. He knew that this was not a small matter, so he walked over on the spot.

Firstly, he did not want the two of them to get along anymore.

Secondly, he wanted to know what was going on. If the third branch knew…

After speaking with Song Lu for a while, he found out that his Third Uncle and Third Aunt already knew about it. He heard Song Lu guarantee that he would not let Qingxiang down, but he found it hard to believe.

After returning to the village, he could not help but tell his father about this matter. He also went to Madam Liu and Chu Zhiwen.

At the very least, he had to tell them how to resolve this matter first.

“Don’t trouble Big Brother with this. We’ll handle it well.” When Chu Zhiwen heard that Song Lu was still in contact with the Wang family’s Third Miss, he was a little unhappy.

Madam Liu sneered at him.

“If you need our help, just tell us.” Chu Yonghua also understood that this was a private matter of the third branch. Even if he was the clan leader, it was not appropriate for him to interfere.

He was just asking as usual.

“Thank you, Big Brother. Please keep this a secret,” said Chu Liushi.

“In the end, it’s just the Wang family’s Third Miss’ wishful thinking.” After saying this, she did not say anything else.

Chu An did not object to this. He had seen it with his own eyes, so he naturally knew who had taken the initiative.

However, if this matter was not handled well, it might implicate Qingxiang’s marriage…

Seeing that although Third Aunt and Third Uncle were angry, they were not in a hurry, he knew that they already had a plan. Naturally, they did not need to meddle in other people’s business.

He sent Madam Liu and Chu Zhiwen away.

Chu Yonghua sat at the head of the table smoking a pipe, looking a little worried about this matter.

“You’re the eldest brother, yet you’re so concerned about your younger brother’s family matters.” Madam Cao, who had been sitting beside them without making a sound, suddenly sneered. “How is this Chu Qingxiang worthy of Song Lu?”

“He’s a scholar!”

“What nonsense are you spouting!” Chu Yonghua’s wrinkled face was furrowed as he scolded in a low voice.

Madam Cao’s face was filled with anger. She was unforgiving. “1 asked you to tell your granddaughter about Song Lu. What did you say? Your granddaughter is not worthy of him. Now, Chu Qingxiang is worthy of him?”

“Fortunately, we have our own self-awareness, so we won’t have an argument.”

Madam Cao felt carefree in her heart, her mouth full of sarcasm.

“You’re not allowed to say that again!” Chu Yonghua said angrily. “Why can’t I say it? The third branch’s current fate is self-inflicted. They deserve it…

“You… Shut up.” Chu Yonghua was furious and raised his hand, wanting to hit her.

Madam Cao was also furious. She stretched her face over and said, “Go ahead and hit me. I’ve been married to you for 20 to 30 years. I’ve been taking care of the family.. I’m old now, you still want to hit me… I knew you were shameless…”
