Yu Qizhe raised his hand and touched her hair, and said softly, "Okay, I will make this my ambition in the future and earn a good reputation for you."
Yu Jiao smiled when she heard that, and she felt a lot lighter. This man always had a way to make her happy.
Yu Ruhai choked on his breath and stared at the two of them, unable to speak.
Yu Qizhe turned around and looked at Yu Ruhai again, "Grandfather, Yu Jiao had this idea to encourage her grandson to make progress. Nothing is wrong."
Yu Ruhai was stuck with all the words in his mind. He pointed at Yu Qizhe for a long time before saying, "You... women are misleading... you are confused! For such a woman, you gave up such a good marriage in the Yang Mansion. I think you have been bewitched by this woman! How can she be worthy of your love and care?"
"Grandfather, what you said is wrong. A real man should respect and love his wife. Yu Jiao is my wife, so I must love and protect her." Yu Qizhe said politely, "Grandfather, please don't make things difficult for her in the future. You are the elder, and your grandson respects you, but he cannot bear to see Yu Jiao suffer. You will make your grandson feel helpless."
Yu Ruhai said angrily, "I asked you to study, and this is all you can learn?"
He advised earnestly, "Wives and concubines are never important things. You are just dazzled by these things when you are young. When you go to the capital in the future and have a promising official position, you can find any woman you want. You need to distinguish the importance of the Yang family's marriage. This woman can't help you in the future. Prefect Yang will be transferred to the capital soon. If you have a father-in-law like that, he can help you! He can let you become a disciple of the Grand Secretary of the Hanlin Academy. Fifth brother, don't be willful anymore."
Yu Jiao looked at Yu Ruhai's sincere expression and suddenly felt that this argument was very boring.
Yu Ruhai's actions were evil to her, but they were for the sake of the entire Yu family and Yu Qizhe's future.
From Yu Ruhai's perspective, he did nothing wrong. He just wanted to use Yu Qizhe's marriage to make his future life easier.
But she stood on the opposite side of the contradiction, and Yu Jiao suddenly felt a little scared. For her, Yu Qizhe rejected the invitation to become a student from Scholar Shen and the marriage proposal from the Yang family.
Given all these things, if his career doesn't go smoothly in the future, will he feel resentment and regret when thinking about what he did today?
Yu Jiao glanced at Yu Qizhe beside her. It turned out that being with someone you like would bring so many troubles.
Yu Qizhe bowed to Yu Ruhai and said, "Grandfather's intention is understood by the grandson. For Qizhe, his wife is the one he will spend the rest of his life with. She should not be deceived or abandoned. Although his career is important, it is not as important as her."
He wanted a future and power, but these were not enough to make him give up the people around him.
Seeing that Yu Qizhe was still stubborn and didn't take his words to heart, Yu Ruhai felt a little tired. He saw the brown spots on the back of his hand and hid his arm in his sleeves.
He is old and is no longer the one in charge of the family.
"Grandfather has advised you in all the ways I can. Don't regret it in the future." Yu Ruhai looked at Yu Qizhe's young face. The boy's stubbornness and self-righteousness made him feel deeply frustrated. His face was covered with wrinkles, making him look particularly old.
"No regrets." Yu Qizhe said in a firm voice.
"I won't care about you anymore in the future." Yu Ruhai said this to Yu Qizhe and also to himself.
Even if he wanted to, he couldn't control this family.
Yu Qizhe took Yu Jiao out of the main hall. He glanced at Yu Ruhai, who was sitting on the chair in a dejected manner. His brows were slightly furrowed, and a touch of melancholy appeared in his heart.
Although my grandfather's actions were biased, they were also for the sake of the entire Yu family.
But he couldn't do everything according to his grandfather's wishes.
In the future, he will bring honor to the Yu family.
After walking out of the main room, Yu Jiao pulled her hand away from Yu Qizhe's palm, "Yu Qizhe." she shouted.
Yu Qizhe was stunned for a moment. Yu Jiao rarely called him by his name directly.
"Whether you can become an official in the future is not important to me." Yu Jiao looked at him and said, "I don't want to be an official's wife. I am willing to be with you because of you. Because I like you now."
Yu Qizhe originally thought she was going to say something serious, but after hearing her serious explanation, he smiled and said, "I know."
"If you think about it carefully, your grandfather is right in part." Yu Jiao said seriously without joking, "I don't have Yang Jiyan's background, so I can't help you in your career. You can choose our relationship so firmly today because you are young and haven't experienced the hardships of life. If your career doesn't go smoothly in the future, and you are frustrated and can't get what you want, have you ever thought about what you will do then? Can you really be like today, without complaints or resentment?"
Yu Jiao said, no longer daring to look at Yu Qizhe. She lowered her eyes and said with some difficulty, "I don't want the world between us to be in ruins one day in the future."
"What are you thinking about?" Yu Qizhe held Yu Jiao's face with both hands, staring into her eyes and said, "These are all trivial matters. To me, nothing is more important than you."
"You don't have to worry about all these things." Yu Qizhe also said very seriously, "Even if you were not here, I would not use my marriage as a bargaining chip for my official career."
