Yuezheng Ting was reaching an age where waiting for a suitable suitor was becoming increasingly difficult. The longer they waited, the fewer good prospects there would be available.

However, given the scandal that had tarnished Yuezheng Tings reputation in the province, it seemed impossible to find a suitable suitor for her there.

Madame Yuezheng considered the option of looking for a suitor in their hometown, which was located at a considerable distance from the province. The Yuezheng Family held a strong position in their hometown, and they could protect Yuezheng Ting when needed. Furthermore, the rumors would not reach that far.

While the suitors from their hometown might not have as privileged backgrounds, there was still a chance for Yuezheng Ting to find a suitable partner there.

Madame Yuezheng finally made the decision to pursue this path.

However, Ms. Mi Junior fiercely opposed this suggestion when she heard it.

No, absolutely not!

She refused to let her daughter return to the humble surroundings of their hometown to marry someone there. She believed it would ruin her daughter’s life.

Madame Yuezheng was furious. She cared for her granddaughter just as much and was not out to ruin her life. She was not an evil grandmother.

Furthermore, Madame Yuezheng blamed Ms. Mi Junior for failing to properly teach and guide her daughter, leading to the situation they were facing now.

Ms. Mi Junior remained determined and steadfast in her stance, adamantly refusing Madame Yuezhengs suggestion.

She had changed, no longer displaying her previous sweetness and pretentiousness. She had a singular focus now – her daughters must marry someone in the province or even in more affluent regions. They were destined for a prosperous life, not to return to the countryside like their hometown. Their wealth was too great to be given to someone poor.

Ms. Mi Junior disregarded her previous behavior in front of her mother-in-law. The only thing she cared about now was ensuring her daughter would not marry someone beneath her, who would take advantage of her and her wealth.

Madame Yuezheng was taken aback by Ms. Mi Junior’s resolute rejection. She had never expected her beloved daughter-in-law, whom she had adored for so long, to be like this. It was a great shock to her, and she began to feel deeply disappointed.

Furious at Ms. Mi Junior’s refusal and her accusations of favoritism, Madame Yuezheng decided to drop the matter altogether.

She was thoroughly disappointed in Ms. Mi Junior.

She resolved not to impose any further requests on Yuezheng Ting or her. After all, Yuezheng Ting was not her own daughter but merely a granddaughter. It seemed that Yuezheng Ting had no interest in returning to their hometown either.

From that moment on, Madame Yuezheng decided to change her treatment of Ms. Mi Junior. She no longer treated her with the same kindness and favor as before.

Ms. Mi Junior breathed a sigh of relief and began seeking potential suitors, even considering those from neighboring towns. However, her efforts yielded no positive results. The families interested in marrying Yuezheng Ting did not meet Ms. Mi Junior’s standards.

Just when they believed the situation would continue dragging on for an extended period, an unexpected event occurred, bringing about a turning point. Unfortunately, it was not a favorable turn of events.

Yuezheng Tings sister, Yuezheng Yan, who had been married for a while, caused trouble once again. Yuezheng Yan’s husband relied heavily on the Yuezheng Family for his business, and their family enjoyed wealth and numerous properties. However, this dependence and Yuezheng Yan’s growing arrogance created a rift between her and her husband, driving them further apart.

Yuezheng Yan strongly opposed her husband, Qi Yun, having a concubine. Just two months into their marriage, she forcefully dismissed the maid who had slept with her husband.

Not stopping there, Yuezheng Yan replaced the other attractive maids with plain-looking and clumsy ones. She was not concerned about mistreating the maids she had purchased, and she would punish them severely if they dared to cross any boundaries.

Qi Yun, Yuezheng Yan’s husband, struggled with her controlling behavior. Initially, his mother explained that Yuezheng Yan’s actions stemmed from her care and desire to keep him close. Although Qi Yun did not appreciate it, he reluctantly accepted this explanation..
