Chapter 126 Seeing the Guest Off



Zhou Zhizhi genuinely believed that her elders were concerned about her marriage.

But now it sounds really funny.

I am now, after all, the Imperial Advisor.

Even the emperor has to give himself some face sometimes.

But those two old fools wanted her to marry a man with no power or influence.

I don't know what the two of them were thinking.

She withdrew her hand, which had been held by her grandmother.

His smile was full of cold indifference.

"My maternal grandmother's granddaughter doesn't want to think about this right now."

I'm ready to run away at any time.

If we were to be bound by these things again, no one would want that.

Sure enough, my maternal grandfather snorted coldly after hearing this, his face turning very long.

“You’re a girl, and you’ll eventually have to rely on your husband’s family to make a living. Things will change eventually.”

“You’re not even as good as your cousin. It’s only thanks to your parents’ goodwill that they don’t look down on you.”

These words made the people around them really think that the old couple had come for his sake, but everyone knew perfectly well what the real reason was.

As the saying goes, no one visits a temple without a reason. If it weren't for their own benefit, the old couple would never have bought anything.

Or perhaps it's because they're in a bad mood and want to find some relief here; that's the biggest reason.

"I think that if you two don't have anything to do, you could go and pray to Buddha or check on your cousin. That's the most important thing."

The words weren't particularly harsh, but that was only because of his mother's sake.

Otherwise, what face do these two old geezers have?

However, my maternal grandfather was quite sensitive when he heard this.

He immediately stood up, pointed a finger at Zhou Zhizhi, and said angrily.

Who do you think you are?

"Besides, this general's mansion is my daughter's home. If you don't agree to this marriage, then get out of this mansion."

When Zhou Zhizhi heard this, both Zhou Zhizhi and Shen's faces turned extremely cold.

"This matter concerning your maternal grandfather has nothing to do with you, does it?"

"If my parents are visiting me because they miss their granddaughter, I would be very happy to welcome them. In fact, we have a new chef who cooks excellent dishes."

"But if it's because of this matter, then please ask the two elders to return."

Zhou Zhizhi didn't want to get upset about this kind of thing.

Even if my maternal grandmother wanted to play the bad cop, it was no longer feasible.

Upon hearing this, he immediately pulled his sleeve back and walked to the side.

"Zhizhi, this matter is probably no longer up to you, because your maternal grandfather has already agreed to this marriage. Since ancient times, the orders of parents and the words of art have been decreed."

"The marriage arrangements for your children have been settled. Now that your father and mother are gone, your maternal grandparents will take care of this for you."

“We think the eighth day of next month is a very auspicious day, so you should get ready to get married.”

Zhou Zhizhi: "??"

It turns out that coming here wasn't about consulting with me; it was just a direct notification.

It's hilarious and disgusting.

Zhou Zhizhi had never been so speechless before.

This is the first time this has happened.

This time, she completely cooled down.

"I'm afraid it won't be as you two wish."

After hearing this, my grandmother was indeed a little unsettled.

"That Liu family's third son is quite a handsome man. Where else can you find someone like that?"

"After you marry him, you just need to be filial to your parents and take good care of your husband, and you won't have to worry about anything."

“This house is your mother’s place after all, and you are not allowed to continue living here.”

When Zhou Zhizhi heard this, she gave her grandmother a cold look.

"Does this mean my maternal grandmother wants me to join this general's mansion?"

That's absolutely hilarious.

Who would dare to touch a house bestowed by the Emperor?

At this moment, my maternal grandfather also snorted coldly.

“It’s not really appropriate for a young lady like you to stay in this mansion. Your cousin Yu will come and stay in a couple of days.”

Zhou Zhizhi laughed in exasperation.

"I'm a girl, but doesn't my cousin also have a daughter?"

"If Grandfather thinks that Liu Sanlang is indeed a handsome and talented man, then why not give him to my cousin?"

This sentence left the elderly couple speechless.

My grandmother blurted it out without thinking.

"How could your cousin be like you?"

Zhou Zhizhi snorted coldly, then shouted outside.

"Wu Da Wu Er, come in and see the guest out!"

She has never been a pushover.

Wu Da and Wu Er only listened to Zhou Zhizhi and never cared who the other two were.

My grandmother has now completely broken off all pretense of civility.

"What do you know, little girl?"

"If you miss out on this Liu family's third son, let's see who will want you in the future?"

Zhou Zhizhi snorted coldly and turned away.

These two have no right to interfere in their own affairs.

When Wu Da heard this, his expression turned slightly gloomy.

"Please."

His words were utterly blunt, and the elderly couple turned and left as well.

But what no one expected was that Chen Yu actually came that night.

Zhou Zhizhi prepared a table full of food, intending to have a good discussion with the Second Prince about the recent matter.

After all, the emperor's affairs are the most important.

If the emperor dies, they will all be doomed, or rather, they will be completely unprepared.

Xiao Xiyou arrived relatively early.

Seeing the table full of food, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

"You do have a conscience, at least."

After saying that, he sat down directly.

Although Zhou Zhizhi can't cook, she knows how to eat.

He chuckled sheepishly and sat down as well.

"Your Highness, if the eunuch was able to get out of the prison today, then there is something fishy about it. We must be more careful."

"And most importantly, His Majesty is probably under house arrest again."

Zhou Zhizhi felt a terrible headache whenever she thought about this.

They were lucky to have the emperor once at first, but who can be so lucky every time?

Xiao Xiyou genuinely believed that this girl had a change of heart after saving him, which was why she had gone to such lengths to prepare a large meal for him.

I didn't expect things to turn out this way, which makes me a little unhappy.

"Little sister, you're here?"

A softer, more delicate female voice reached their ears.
