"My daughter, aren't you engaged?"

Mrs. Lu was the first to come back to her senses. She asked Gao Zhijun excitedly.

The other members of the Huo family came to their senses and looked at Gao Zhijun.

Being watched by so many people, even Gao Zhijun, who had seen the world, felt a little panicked at the moment.

If it was something else, she wouldn't be so flustered.

However, when it comes to love and emotions, she feels helpless.

"I'm sorry, I deceived everyone.

I'm not actually engaged.

When we first met, we didn't know whether you were good or bad, so we had to find this excuse to put it to rest once and for all."

Gao Zhijun explained.

"Why do you want to be my daughter-in-law now? Is it because you like Jinqian?"

Mrs. Lu was so happy and excited that her daughter was finally going to become a daughter-in-law.

After hearing this, Gao Zhijun blushed even more.

How should she say this?

Could it be that it was not because she liked Huo Jinqian, but because she wanted to take advantage of Huo Jinqian?

Wouldn't it hurt her feelings to say that?

Would it be cruel and unkind of me to do this?

"It's because my grandmother wanted to marry me to my cousin, but two cousins ​​can't get married, so the child born this way would have some defects."

Gao Zhijun couldn't continue to say the following words. She really felt that she was not a human being, but there was nothing she could do.

If she refused to marry, the original owner's grandmother and others would be unable to do anything to her. Then they would fall out and no longer be relatives.

In this way, the original owner's mother will be sad, and the original owner will also be sad.

Since I have taken over the original owner's body and can live here, I cannot be ungrateful and must be grateful.

Although Gao Zhijun had not finished speaking, everyone understood that her grandmother wanted her to marry her cousin, but she disagreed, so she came here, hoping to have an engagement with Jinqian to appease her grandmother.

“Okay, we will cooperate, as long as you and Jinqian are willing, we will arrange your marriage once it’s settled.

If you don't want to, I will cancel your engagement when my daughter finds someone she really wants to marry."

Mrs. Lu's words were all for Gao Zhijun. Whether or not Gao Zhijun wanted to be her daughter-in-law was entirely up to her. Huo Jinqian's wishes were not important.

"Well, we think the same way. It's up to you to decide."

Several people from the Huo family said in unison.

In their eyes, grandchildren (sons, nephews) are not as important as Gao Zhijun.

She is not only beautiful and kind, but also very capable.

Such unconditional pampering warmed Gao Zhijun's heart so much that the ice and snow melted and spring came.

If I have to get married in the future, marrying into the Huo family is really a good choice.

Putting everything else aside, with the Huo family's love and trust in her, her future life will definitely be happy.

Moreover, she didn't hate Huo Jinqian. After getting along with him, she felt that he was a very responsible and honest man.

If he didn't have three wives and four concubines, she would agree.

She would feel dirty if she were asked to share a husband with another woman.

It’s better to get along with each other first, observe first, and don’t let yourself regret it.

When Huo Jinqian heard her say that she had no engagement, he was so happy that he was almost beaming with joy.

Then when he heard that his family did not speak up for him and gave all the initiative to her, he was not unhappy at all. He felt that his family did the right thing and that he would do the same if he were in her shoes.

He believed that as long as he was sincere enough, he would be able to touch her heart and stay in her heart.

Isn’t it said that “Where there is sincerity, even metal and stone can be opened”?

"I have no objection. Whether you are willing to marry me is your decision, but I believe that my sincerity will definitely make you like me!"

Huo Jinqian expressed his promise in front of the Huo family.

"Grandpa and grandma, uncles and aunts, thank you!"

Gao Zhijun said gratefully.

She was really touched that so many people trusted and loved her without any reason.

So this is what it feels like to be loved.

She had never felt this in her previous life.

For this love, she will definitely fall in love with it.

"Okay, that's settled. Go back and tell your children not to get caught."

Hawking interrupted them and asked them to go back and advise their children.

Lu took everyone away and everyone went back to their own business.

Gao Zhijun took out herbs from the room, boiled some medicine for Zhuang Die, and then served it to her.

After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

A night of silence.

The next day, after breakfast.

The village head went to find Han, the shopkeeper of Renshoutang, and went to the greenhouse to sell the herbs from the villagers of Huojia Village who lived in the greenhouse. He also asked them if they were willing to go to Mount Tai with them.

As a result, only a few families were willing to go to Mount Tai with them, and the rest stayed and went to Yanzhou.

The people who stayed behind included the Tong and Fang families. The village head was relieved to see that the people who made trouble did not follow them.

Huo Jinzhou took the villagers to buy food. On the way, everyone cooked their own food and no longer ate together.

Gao Zhijun took Huo Jinqian, Huo Jinhao, Huo Jinting, Huo Jinbai, and the villagers in a oxcart, braved the rain, and went to Yashi to buy an oxcart. All the villagers who were fleeing famine used oxcarts, so that when they settled down, the oxen could also be used to cultivate the wasteland.

Mrs. Lu took the women to the embroidery building to buy some ready-made clothes and fabrics, intending to make clothes for her family on the way.

Manager Han wrote a letter to his boss yesterday, mentioning the plague and asking people to rush to the capital without delay.

Prefect Chu ordered his personal guards to ride as fast as they could to the capital early in the morning to present the memorial to the emperor.

The legal advisor also ordered all the constables and officials in the government office to go to the low-lying villages and bring the villagers into the city for resettlement.

The legal advisor summoned all the merchants and landlords in Liangzhou to the government office. Following Gao Zhijun's method, the merchants and landlords obediently gave their idle yards to the government for free for half a year.

After finishing his breakfast, Prefect Chu went to find the garrison stationed there, found the prefect, and told him what Gao Zhijun had said. Then he dispatched a thousand soldiers to Prefect Chu and asked him to take them back to assist the government office and bring the people into the city safely for resettlement.
