Chapter 72 Sold
Wow!
Chang Xixi smiled. Did he know that she and her husband were acting? It seemed that Zhou Zhiwei was not an idiot. It was a pity that he was not good-looking enough. If he was good-looking, the threshold of the Zhou family's marriage proposal would be trampled down by people. Along the way, he didn't hear anyone coming here to propose marriage. It seemed that no one came.
Madam, you should at least find a marriage for Zhou Zhiwei. They have been in Ruzhou for several days, but we haven't heard who the young lady of the Zhou family is going to marry!
Ha ha!
Interesting, this is really interesting. Could it be that the eldest lady doesn’t like Zhou Zhiwei?
This was the yard where she had lived for more than ten years. It seemed that she was not favored by Zhou Zhiwei, and the reason was that she was not good-looking enough.
What an interesting discovery.
"Husband, we haven't thanked Miss Zhou properly for her kindness to us. Thank you, Miss Zhou, for your sympathy. You know, there is nothing in the countryside, let alone a bowl of porridge. We don't even have a bowl of noodles to spare at home, and my second brother is disabled and can't help the family at all. After I went back, Dou didn't like me helping the family and felt quite sorry. You don't know, I originally wanted to ask Zhu Youcai for help, but who knew he despised my family background. Later, I got together with Zhang Xiucai from the same village, but he just wanted to cheat me of my money. I cried and made a fuss, and finally I figured it out. I have all that spare money and time, so I might as well marry a man I can control. No matter what he looks like, I like him."
As she spoke, Chang Xixi gave Qingnan another look.
Qingnan received the order and continued, "Madam is right. Our young master followed Miss Chang and also endured it. The young master was ostracized by his family and was only given a small house that couldn't even shelter him from the rain. There was not even a pot at home, which was very pitiful. Fortunately, Miss Chang did not despise her and married our young master. The young master relied on copying books to support the family. Madam raised some poultry at home to supplement the family income. Studying always leads to taking the imperial examination! So, we bought a car and came to Kyoto. We didn't want to stay here. But Madam couldn't help but said that she wanted to stroll around the streets here. She said that she had lived here for decades and missed it. So we stayed here. Miss Zhou, please don't laugh at our Madam. She has had a very hard year."
Zhou Zhiwei was so angry that her face turned red.
What does she mean? Is she scolding her?
Dou's family was so poor. Now that she's rich, she doesn't send letters back home, nor does she send some money to support the family. Is she just enjoying herself?
Say she's ungrateful? It's worse than Chang Xixi, who has been pampered here for more than ten years. She's really pissed her off. She starts cursing her in a roundabout way. It's really unbearable. Zhou Zhiwei stood up and said, "I'm going to meet the guests. Since I'm living in the mansion, there's no need to rush to reminisce about the past."
After taking two steps, he looked back at Qingnan who was kneeling on the ground and said, "You...get up when you remember, or go and beg your wife! I don't care about anything. It's useless to beg me. As for the servant not giving you water, I will definitely tell the wife when she comes back."
This time he really left.
Zhou Zhiwei walked while pulling the flowers and plants beside him, "What bad luck! I didn't expect Chang Xixi to do this. It really caught me off guard."
The maid behind her said, "Young lady, why are you so angry? Now in this Zhou Mansion, you are the real Miss Zhou. Who is she? She is not even worthy of carrying your shoes, let alone coming back to fight with you for things. She is just out of money and comes here to beg for money."
"You're right. Send someone to keep an eye on them and see what they're up to. Remember to tell me everything they do. Then go and invite the eldest lady back. Tell her I've invited Chang Xixi to live with me. Say it in a nice way."
"yes."
One maid left, and another came up behind her and continued to persuade her, "Miss, don't worry, they will be gone soon. You are the real lady of the Zhou family!"
"I've said that."
This maidservant was mute, but fortunately she was capable. After Zhou Zhiwei came to the mansion, there was no one else available, so he kept her.
He hurried to the reception room for the women. Miss Zhang was very beautiful. She became good friends with Zhou Zhiwei because flowers always need green to set them off. So, she found Zhou Zhiwei, the green, to set off her own flowers, and the effect was of course really good.
Now the threshold for the Zhang family's marriage proposal has been guessed, and she can still choose from many princes and nobles.
"Zhiwei, what's wrong with you? You don't look well. I heard that Chang Xixi is back. How is she? Have you met her already? What's she like? I heard that she married a scholar like you, and a sickly girl. But I heard that sickly girl turned out to be quite handsome. Why don't we come to your house one day and bring her out for us to see. Just a glimpse from a distance will be fine!"
"That's not impossible! But, you've taken a look at my family. How are you going to thank me?"
Zhou Zhiwei knew what Miss Zhang was up to, but she couldn't live without social connections in this circle! So, one needed a supporting role, while the other needed a social circle, and so they hit it off and formed their current combination.
"The reward is quite high, what do you want?"
"I need a pass for you. I heard that you are going to visit the governor's house in a few days. Of course I want to go. If you can ask the governor's daughter to invite me to be her guest, it will be possible. I will arrange everything well so that everyone can have a good time."
Miss Zhang smiled. Zhou Zhiwei was really ambitious! He actually wanted to show up at the prefect's house.
"Yes, one invitation allows you to bring one family member. Just think of yourself as my friend and go with me. The prefect's daughter and I have been close friends since childhood, so she won't mind. You should dress plainly that day; she doesn't like people wearing heavy makeup."
"no problem."
Zhou Zhiwei sold the two people who had just entered the mansion.
Elsewhere, Chang Xixi saw the person leave and smiled. This person is really interesting... Zhou Zhiwei? Her image is completely different from the image in the original owner's memory. She seems to be smarter and more courageous. It's a pity that she didn't use it in the right way.
Appearance is secondary, character is the most important.
And she has put all her thoughts on those things, which is not good!
Qingnan stood up and asked, "Where are we going to stay in this mansion tonight? Why is there no one to show us the way? You are so disrespectful to our guests. Be careful of me..."
"You're too talkative."
