If they really thought that Su Yufang had sores and wanted to break off the engagement, it wouldn’t make sense, because the woman was sick and afraid of being implicated. Anyone would find it difficult to accept this.

Therefore, he had to be prepared not to get all the betrothal gifts back.

He wanted to marry a healthy wife, so he couldn’t marry Su Yufang and break off the engagement. He didn’t intend to take back all the betrothal gifts, so a portion was enough.

But now that he knew the truth, this was not a matter of whether he owed them anything or not. It was the Su family who had ill intentions.

Since they were not sincere, he could not foolishly let the Su family bully and take advantage of them.

“Aunt, I want all the betrothal gifts back.”

Luo Chuan’s eyes turned slightly cold.

Madam Liu sighed. “Their family is too heartless. I really thought they were good.”

At first, she felt guilty. Su Yufang was not in good health and had yet to get married. Of course, she would not marry. She came with sincerity. Even if the two families could not become in-laws, she would still make friends with them.

It would be good if the betrothal gift was only half returned. Everyone would part on good terms.

However, the Su family had concealed the truth and used excuses. She was not a fool. She had to get all the betrothal gifts back.

“Chuan, don’t worry. I won’t let you suffer. We don’t want what we shouldn’t want, but we have to take what we deserve. Let’s go and see what kind of deed they’ve done.”

Madam Liu pulled Luo Chuan towards the Su family. She wanted to see what the Su family would do today.

Chen s.h.i.+ smiled and followed behind. He was clearly prepared to watch the show.

Madam Liu pulled Luo Chuan to the Su residence and knocked on the door before entering.

Seeing that Madam Liu and Luo Chuan were here, the Su family sat neatly.

Madam Liu was the first to speak. “Good sister, we rushed over when we received your letter. Is Yufang seriously ill? How is she? I don’t see her anywhere.”

Madam Zhou sighed and said with a worried and helpless expression, “It’s still not very good. She’s taken a lot of medicine, but it’s not working.”

Madam Liu immediately said, “We can’t be careless. Anyway, she’s already engaged to our Chuan. Why don’t we let them get married in advance? Just treat it as a celebration for Yufang. Who knows, she might recover from her illness after this joy. Don’t you think so?”

Madam Liu was deliberately probing. She wanted to see the att.i.tude of the Su family.

When Madam Zhou heard Madam Liu’s words, her expression stiffened. She hurriedly said, “How can that be? What if the illness is contagious and Chuan gets sick?”

Luo Chuan said flatly, “I don’t mind.”

Madam Zhou was instantly stunned. She never expected the Luo family to have such an att.i.tude.

She thought that when they heard that Su Yufang was sick, they would agree to break off the engagement. That way, they would have a reason not to return the betrothal money and say that the money was used to buy medicine.

But now that Madam Liu had agreed to the marriage, Luo Chuan also agreed.

Madam Zhou was suddenly at a loss for words.

Su Erlang reacted quickly and hurriedly said, “How can that be? My girl is sick. If she marries your family, won’t she be harming you? So we won’t marry her off. Let’s break off the engagement.”

Madam Zhou came back to her senses and nodded in agreement. “Yes, yes.”

Madam Liu looked at Madam Zhou and asked, “Then how do you plan to return the betrothal gift?”

She wanted to see what the family had to say.

Speaking of betrothal gifts, Su Erlang kept his mouth shut.

Madam Zhou sighed and said helplessly, “It’s like this. In the beginning, when Yufang fell sick, we didn’t know what kind of illness she had, so we found a doctor for her. She never recovered from her illness, and she would take medicine intermittently to see a doctor. That was how the betrothal money was used up.”

After Madam Zhou finished speaking, she did not wait for Madam Liu to speak before saying, “Good sister, this marriage was originally a good thing. If Yufang wasn’t so unlucky, I wouldn’t have let her break off the engagement with Luo Chuan. We can’t return this money now…”

After saying that, Madam Zhou looked at Madam Liu with tears in her eyes.

Madam Liu frowned. When Madam Zhou said that, she meant that the betrothal gift could not be refunded. However, the marriage between the two families still had to be refunded. Then, she even used such an excuse to leave a good reputation for Su Yufang.

If they broke off the engagement like this, the Luo family would lose their money and people. To the outside world, they would also lose a ruthless reputation.

What a brilliant idea.

Madam Liu was not angry either. She immediately held Madam Zhou’s hand and said, “Good sister, it’s better not to break off the engagement. Let them get married as soon as possible to celebrate. Who knows, things might get better. If we break off the engagement now, what will others think of our Luo Chuan?”

“So, let’s not break off the engagement. Let’s set the date today and let them get married early.”

Madam Liu would not relent. She wanted Madam Zhou to think that if she did not agree to the annulment, Su Yufang would die at the Luo family’s hands.

Madam Zhou could also tell what was going on. This made her extremely anxious.

When Madam Liu saw this, she suppressed the anger in her heart and said, “Good sister, I think the 10th of this month is a good day. Why don’t we settle on the 10th? If they get married early, she might be able to recover from the illness.”

Madam Zhou forced a smile and said, “Good sister, I can’t thank you enough for thinking so highly of Yufang. But she’s really seriously ill. We can only cancel this marriage.”

Madam Liu frowned. “Where’s Yufang? I’ll go and see her. As long as she can live until the wedding, I think we can give it a try. Many people can’t even find a match even if they want to. If my girl encounters such a thing, I’ll have to pray to the ancestors.”

“Good sister, don’t say that Yufang isn’t good. As long as our family doesn’t despise her.”

Madam Liu had directly blocked Madam Zhou’s way out. She wanted to see what else Madam Zhou could come up with.

Madam Zhou really could not think of anything else to say. It took her a long time to come up with this reason and excuse.

Generally speaking, if an unmarried woman was seriously ill, her future in-laws would be eager to break off the engagement. Everyone agreed that this was very unlucky. Such a woman would make the family unlucky if she married. If she was willing to break off the engagement, she would be very happy.

However, Madam Liu insisted on rus.h.i.+ng the good news, and Luo Chuan had no objections. Madam Zhou was dumbfounded and could not think straight.

This was a difficult situation for her alone. No one in this family would speak up for her.

Seeing that Madam Zhou was speechless, Madam Liu smiled and asked, “Good sister, where is Yufang?”

Madam Zhou’s smile was very forced. “I think it’s better to end the engagement. It’s better to be safe than sorry.”

Madam Zhou could not find anything else to say, so she could only hold on to this sentence.

Madam Liu frowned and her expression turned cold. “What exactly do you mean? Something happened after the engagement and the betrothal gift. You want to break off the engagement but refuse to return the betrothal money. I suspect that you’re trying to cheat the marriage. You’re clearly trying to cheat the Luo family’s money. Do you think that our family’s money comes easily? If you don’t make things clear today, we’ll see you in court!”
