Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1990: Chapter 1990: Gan Yujing’s Explanation

Shu Yu was still a bit puzzled. Yesterday, the incident with Cheng Jiatong was resolved behind closed doors in the Cheng family, and it was already evening when it was settled. How could the Gan family be so well-informed that they got the news early this morning?

While she was wondering, Gan Yujing explained.

It turns out that after Gan Yujing left the tavern yesterday, she went directly back to her mother’s house. She waited until Sister-in-law Ms. Liao returned and couldn’t help but question her about Gan Rui’s matchmaking.

Gan Yujing had always been dissatisfied with Ms. Liao, fundamentally due to the incident years ago when Gan Rui was almost harmed by Eldest Gan’s concubine. At that time, Gan Yujing had just married, and after her mother’s death, family affairs fell on Ms. Liao’s shoulders, and as a result, her most beloved fourth brother nearly died under Ms. Liao’s management.

Because of this incident, Gan Yujing not only doubted Ms. Liao’s ability but also resented her own elder brother deeply. She even felt that they intended to harm her fourth brother to seize the Gan family’s assets.

However, over the years, Gan Yujing’s view of Ms. Liao somewhat changed, and their relationship slightly eased.

Yet last year, this relationship took a sharp downturn because Gan Rui’s previous fiancée was introduced by Gan Yujing, and the other party was still a relative of her husband’s family.

As a result, the fiancée passed away, and the other party spread rumors everywhere that Gan Rui was cursed to cause his wife’s death, leading to a falling out between the two families.

As the intermediary, Gan Yujing found herself unwelcome on both sides, becoming the target of criticism.

Thus, Gan Yujing had a discord with her elder brother and sister-in-law. Seeing Ms. Liao was finding a girl from a county town for Gan Rui in a hurry, she suspected it was aimed at her.

Luckily, she remained calm and did not directly barge into the box when seeing Ms. Liao and Shu Yu together.

After returning to her parental home, she inquired about the girl’s identity, only to be informed that Meng Han was not sought by Ms. Liao, but chosen by Gan Rui himself.

Gan Yujing was greatly surprised.

Moreover, the girl from the Meng family is not some obscure girl from a small family. This year, the Meng family received an imperial plaque, now grandly hanging at the entrance of the Meng family’s escort agency.

In this aspect, the Gan family cannot compare.

Not to mention, Meng Han’s cousin was Scholar Meng, who last year topped the county examinations, and his future sister-in-law is the currently renowned Wen’an County Lord.

Though the Gan family is wealthy, and Gan Rui is a scholar, a prominent family in this prefecture, when it comes to background, it might not necessarily surpass the current Meng family.

Added to this, Gan Rui and Meng Han were mutually fond of each other, and Gan Rui also confided in Gan Yujing that he would marry none but her. Naturally, Gan Yujing could not oppose.

Although she was dissatisfied with her elder brother and sister-in-law, she truly cared for Gan Rui. The girl she herself fancied had no faults, so why would she oppose?

Gan Yujing immediately discarded her prejudices, and harmoniously discussed with Ms. Liao about hosting the Meng family and proposing marriage to the Meng family.

Originally everything went smoothly, but unexpectedly after Gan Yujing returned to her room, she noticed the old woman’s strange demeanor, occasionally mentioning Cheng Jiatong.

Gan Yujing felt odd, and after several questions, she noticed a strange bracelet on the old woman’s wrist, which made her eyelids twitch fiercely.

Under her threatening interrogation, the old woman tearfully confessed everything, admitting she had been bribed by Cheng Jiatong and had not only leaked Gan Yujing’s whereabouts but also deliberately sowed discord between Gan Yujing and Ms. Liao, all to make Gan Rui’s marriage handled by Gan Yujing.
