The news that there was a change in the engagement between the Yuan and Xiao families flew out like wings after a banquet between Old Master Yuan and Earl Rong.
Earl Rong's residence began to prepare the betrothal gifts with great fanfare, as if they were afraid that others would not know that Earl Rong was going to remarry for the fourth time.
When the news reached the Xiao family, General Xiao was so angry that he almost beat Xiao Qirui up again. He only gave up when he saw him lying on the bed sickly.
Madam Xiao was also tough this time. She quickly reorganized the people in the residence. Xiao Ruoqian, who had eavesdropped and spread the scandal in the family, did not have a good time.
Because of this matter, in order to suppress the rumors, the Xiao family directly carried the betrothal gifts to the Yuan residence and sent them to the Yuan family's old residence. They quickly set the wedding date to be a month later.
