Chapter-32: I can't subdue such a tigress….
Jerry Lark also came over and asked quietly. "Sister, when did you ask someone to tell the storyteller? How come I didn't know?" Wendy Lark smiled but said nothing. The two Lark brothers looked at each other.
Jerry Lark was still a little confused, but Tom Lark understood immediately. (It turned out to be a fraud! Being able to tell a lie as if it were true is also a skill.) He is proud of his sister in his heart.
Jerry Lark looked at his brother and then at his sister, and always felt that he was the dumbest child in the family. There is a slight sadness. But emotions come and go quickly.
"Why doesn't the Yost family show up? Are they going to give up on their daughter? I also want to exchange something." The second daughter of the Yost family was his fiancée, but the two had never met, so there was no such thing as any feelings between them.
Under the current circumstances, breaking off the engagement is actually the best outcome, which is good for both parties. Wendy Lark rolled her eyes and called the Cox family butler, "Please stay."
The Cox family butler held his collar, feeling uncomfortable, and asked weakly, "Is there anything else?" He only hated himself for being blind and offending the cruel Miss Wendy Lark.
Now, she was taking revenge on him openly. The thought of going back to the city barefoot and in underwear made him feel sick and want to die! Wendy Lark smiled and said.
"It is better to share happiness with others than to enjoy it alone. It is not good for the Cox family to enjoy such a good thing as breaking off the engagement alone, right?" They are not fools.
When the Cox family butler heard this, he immediately became interested. "Please give me some advice." Isn't it? It's not nice for one family to cancel an engagement, but if everyone does it, they will be drowned in the crowd and won't stand out.
Wendy Lark hesitated for a moment, "Please tell the Yost family that my family sympathizes with the fact that it is not easy for a daughter to live in this world. For the sake of the second daughter's future, we are willing to reluctantly cancel the engagement.
However, we hope that the other party will send some gifts of comfort, so that we will not owe each other anything and this cause and effect will be completely resolved." It was clearly a transaction.
But in her mouth it was a settlement of cause and effect, which sounded both classy and affectionate. What a talent. The Cox family butler was silent for a moment, and suddenly doubted whether his master's decision to cancel the engagement was really right?
With such a smart and insightful girl as their husband, the Cox family will have no worries for the next thirty years. But he couldn't make the decision. "We in the Lark family are reasonable. We only want six gifts."
Wendy Lark did not talk about love or money, and made a list, "One carriage, two beds, ten rolls of white silk, ten rolls of silk cloth, one hundred kilograms of rice, and one hundred kilograms of flour."
This is the scarcest material on their journey on exile. Everyone looked at him strangely, most of them were doubtful.
(Can it work? You have become a fugitive, why should others give you face? There are many ways to rob people!) They felt that this time the second house would lose more than it gained. But is it really like that?
The Cox family butler looked at her deeply. The carriage was a means of transportation. It could be used at home, lent to others, or sold for money. Bedding, rice and flour are necessities of life.
White silk and satin can be used to buy several sets of clothes, covering everything from the inside to the outside. Moreover, this condition is not too harsh. The annual gifts given by ordinary officials are also in this amount.
It can be regarded as a peaceful and friendly solution. She is really extraordinarily smart. It's not unfair that I fell into her hands. "Good…" He became inexplicably excited. He couldn't be the only one to suffer misfortune, right?
Tom Lark's eyes lit up, "Please tell the Cooper family to follow this list." He also wants to cancel the engagement! The Cox family butler left silently with the coachman, his backs looking somewhat desolate.
The officers watched the whole process silently and it was an eye-opener. "Boss, the third young lady of the Lark family is not an ordinary person." Lord Jeff raised an eyebrow, not surprised at all.
When his good friend invited him to drink, he mentioned this girl, saying that she was brave, resourceful, and courageous. If she were a boy, she would definitely be an outstanding and capable official. What a pity.
At the same time, the Foster family members sitting together were also discussing her. The eldest son of the Foster family sighed, "Miss Wendy Lark is quite capable the second branch will take advantage of this."
The fourth young master said unhappily, "It has come to this point, what's the point of talking about whether you can get up or not? Being able to reach Varna alive is a blessing from good deeds in the previous life."
"Just wait and see. I have great confidence in this girl." Young Master of the foster family's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Fourth brother, why don't you marry her?"
The fourth young master was terrified, "Brother, don't talk nonsense. I can't subdue such a tigress... Dad, why are you looking at me like that?"
The head of the Foster family looked disdainful, "She doesn't like you. If you can do something, I will give you to her." A good girl who can support the family and protect them when the family is in trouble is called a good girl.
