After crossing, I was miserable.

Chapter 565 Question 1

Qian Duoduo did not sense Yang Chuyi's presence this time, so when she returned to Madam Yang's yard, she dismissed the maids and asked Chunxia to guard outside.

As for the matter of Yang Chuyi, no matter whether it is true or false, she must not let any of it leak out from her mouth.

If a maid accidentally overheard a few words and spread the matter, the blame would certainly be placed on her.

Because of this, she had no choice but to ask her mother secretly.

If my mother knew the truth, she wouldn't have to worry about it anymore.

To be honest, it wasn't that she intended to pay attention to such trivial matters.

However, the ties within the family are very close nowadays, and any slight change can affect the entire family.

Not to mention that Yang Chuyi was raised by Madam Yang,

Even though she was a concubine's daughter and grew up safely with Uncle Yang according to common sense, it would be shameless if the news of her pregnancy before marriage spread.

She herself may not care about it, but this incident will indeed have a serious impact on the reputation of those married and unmarried women in the Yang family.

Therefore, it is better to ask about this matter in advance.

Madam Yang saw Qian Duoduo chase all the maids out and even asked her personal maid to guard outside the door.

He said with some concern: "You said nothing happened, did something happen?"

Qian Duoduo felt his heart sink when he saw the concerned look in his mother's eyes. He really didn't know how to start the conversation.

But she still held her mother's hand tightly to show that she was fine.

After taking a deep breath, Qian Duoduo finally made up his mind and asked directly:

"Mother, I heard that cousin Chu Yi is pregnant. Do you know about this?"

Upon hearing these words, Mrs. Yang, who had originally looked worried, suddenly changed her expression and was filled with shock. She stood there in a daze, as if someone had suddenly pressed acupuncture points on her.

After a long while, he came back to his senses and stammered:

"What...what? Xin'er, don't make such a joke! Don't say such things casually!"

As Mrs. Yang spoke, she held Qian Duoduo's hand even tighter with her trembling hands, her eyes full of disbelief.

"Mother, please don't panic. I heard from others that the news has spread among the noble ladies in the capital. So, I want to ask if you know about this matter?"

"This...this is impossible. Your cousin stays at home every day and has never gone out." Mrs. Yang felt a little guilty when she said this.

She suddenly recalled Chu Yi's various behaviors during this period, and she speculated suspiciously.

I really can't figure out what kind of magical power Chu Yi used.

It was so easy for her to be accepted by Mrs. Huangfu, who was always picky and had high standards.

What is even more shocking is that the Huangfu family actually broke off the engagement with the daughter of the Du family, the Minister of Honglu Temple!

You know, although the marriage between the Huangfu family and the Du family was a helpless move at the beginning, this marriage was once favored by everyone.

Recalling the fierce quarrel between the two of them before, she thought the matter would just end there.

However, what she did not expect was that not long after, Madam Huangfu actually came to her house in person and took the initiative to mention the marriage between the two families.

Moreover, Mrs. Huangfu's attitude this time was completely different from the past, and she became unusually kind and amiable.

But even so, she did not agree easily at that time.

After all, the Huangfu family had not yet officially broken off the engagement with the Du family at that time. If they rashly agreed, they would inevitably be criticized.

It is said that the daughter of the Du family has been embraced by the young master of the Huangfu family!

After this matter was spread out, everyone looked at it with awe and talked about it, which is why the engagement was decided.

If the engagement is cancelled this time, the reputation of the daughter of the Du family will probably be affected to some extent. I wonder what kind of family she will be able to marry into in the future?

Given the Du family's reputation and status in the capital, they would not agree to cancel the engagement so easily.

However, what was unexpected was that in just a few days, Madam Huangfu claimed that the Huangfu family and the Du family had quietly cancelled their engagement!

Although this matter has not been widely spread, everyone in the capital will know about it soon!

Combined with today's news, this sudden change can't help but make people think:

Could it be that the Huangfu family learned that Yang Chuyi was pregnant, which caused their attitude to take a 180-degree turn?

Mrs. Yang didn't dare to think about it too much, because she didn't know why the daughter she had personally raised would become like this?

Qian Duoduo saw that Mrs. Yang seemed a little distracted and knew that she was also thinking about something.

But judging from her expression, she really should not know that Yang Chuyi is pregnant.

But whether this matter is true or not remains to be confirmed.

"Mother?" Qian Duoduo called softly.

Mrs. Yang was stunned for a long time before she slowly came to her senses.

She had a slightly bitter smile on her face and asked the person in front of her softly:

"My child, did you hear these things from Miss Bai and the others?

I don't think they would tell you this for no reason. If they didn't have solid information, they probably wouldn't tell you easily.

I just don’t know if they look down on you because of this incident?

Please don't take it to heart! Has it affected your friendship?"

As Mrs. Yang spoke, she looked at Qian Duoduo with a worried look on her face, her eyes full of concern.

After all, she knew very well that when it came to matters concerning her daughter's reputation, there were often many attempts to curry favor with the powerful and to flatter the powerful.

This situation will happen even to friends who grew up together, let alone people like them who are new to making friends.

If you are not careful, you may cause great harm and distress to the friends and relatives who are affected.

So at this moment, her heart was hanging, fearing that her beloved daughter would suffer even the slightest injustice.

"Yes." Qian Duoduo did not deny it.

"But don't worry, they don't mean to make fun of you.

At first they didn't take it seriously, but they heard that the news was spread by their cousin's best friend Wang Yuyan.

And the news has spread among their small circle, so they came to tell me the news."

"That's good." Mrs. Yang was also relieved after knowing this.

However, after being startled for a moment, Mrs. Yang quickly took a deep breath and tried to calm her somewhat panicked heart.

She calmed herself down, turned her gaze to Qian Duoduo in front of her, and said slowly:

"I really don't know anything about this matter. But since you said so, I will definitely find a suitable opportunity to check it out.

If what you said is true, then we must be careful in dealing with it.

You know, she is the girl who is about to get married out of our Yang family.

If anything goes wrong with her reputation, it wouldn't just be the daughters of the Yang family who would be implicated!

As for you, you will be the first to be affected. After all, in another year, you will marry the extremely noble Fourth Prince.

Therefore, this matter must be properly handled no matter what!"

"Okay, I'll listen to mother."

The mother and daughter chatted for a while before Qian Duoduo went back to her room to rest.
