"What kind of refined lady acts like this, acting crazy and erratic here?"
"You're just going to spoil him like this? What will happen when he gets married?"
When Mr. Chen said this, he was very impatient.
Madam Chen also sighed helplessly.
"What do you mean by saying that?"
"He's just a good-for-nothing. Once he's a little older, he can just marry anyone."
"Our most important thing right now is Yu'er's marriage. If Yu'er doesn't marry the Second Prince, then everything else will be in vain."
After Madam Chen finished speaking, Mr. Chen paused for a moment and then said nothing more.
Madam Chen also stood up and looked at Su Su's appearance, sighing helplessly, her eyes filled with the image of someone utterly hopeless and utterly hopeless.
"You, you never know how to be a little more ambitious."
Su Su didn't say anything more, and tears just started flowing.
Actually, the old lady saw that her daughter was so disappointing, and that she was actually quite pretty.
She has absolutely no airs of a well-bred lady.
If Susu and Yu'er are very similar, both being dignified, elegant, and likable, then the cards he holds in his hand are...
But his youngest daughter was a good-for-nothing.
After seeing her shed tears, her expression became increasingly troubled.
He impatiently shoved Susu.
"All you do is cry, cry, cry. If your sister fails to win the Second Prince's favor this time, it will all be because of your heartless crying."
"Get out of here right now!"
She was actually a little impatient when she said that.
Susu has face blindness; she wiped away her tears and ran away.
She knew perfectly well that her parents didn't like her.
But today is the first time I've felt so directly that I'm not loved.
"The house is in complete chaos every day!"
After saying this, Mr. Chen stood up.
Seeing that her husband was still somewhat impatient, Madam Chen felt a little out of line.
"Grandpa, don't be angry. He's just a child and doesn't understand anything."
She was trying to comfort him, but she didn't expect that when Mr. Chen turned around, his eyes were also full of disgust.
"Children don't understand, but don't you, as an adult, understand?"
"What kind of person have you raised Susu to be?"
"Go to the General's Mansion now and see how Yu'er is doing. If it's alright, let her stay there for now."
"Do you really think we can let a little girl ride roughshod over us?"
After saying that, she simply turned the show aside and left.
These women, living in a square courtyard, naturally dared not disobey their husbands' wishes.
He could only give a signal to Granny Li next to him, and then let him pack his luggage.
Zhou Zhizhi really thought that this was the only trouble she had.
But as evening approached, I thought I'd go out and check on the other situation first.
The lantern festival has been incredibly lively lately.
It's possible that the Crown Prince might take advantage of the festive atmosphere and the large crowds to make another move.
Unexpectedly, just as he reached the gate, he saw a carriage parked in front of his mansion.
A graceful and elegant lady stepped down, but her face was full of calculation.
The two women exchanged a glance, and Madam Chen also put on a sarcastic smile.
"Zhizhi, where are you going so late at night?"
As they spoke, it was as if the two of them had been very close before, and then they walked over and took Zhou Zhizhi's hand.
His hands looked so pitiful.
"How did you get so thin?"
"It's really not good to be all alone."
"Come in with me quickly, I brought a lot of snacks for you to try."
Zhou Zhizhi really didn't know what Madam Chen was doing here.
She's practically my aunt, but I just can't bring myself to call her that.
"Madam, I have some things to take care of, so I can't attend to you."
Zhou Zhizhi's meaning as host and guest is very clear.
I just don't want their whole family to come and stay at my house.
However, when the lady heard this, she was embarrassed, but she still smiled gently and gracefully.
"Oh, is that so? Then I'll go in and wait for you. Anyway, I'm not going back for a while. I need to take good care of you before I go back."
"Otherwise, your uncle would keep nagging me about you, his niece."
Zhou Zhizhi found these words utterly unbelievable.
But it was inappropriate to say anything else.
All he knew was that this woman was bothering him again, and he was really annoyed.
If he were to actually leave now, wouldn't the household be at Madam Chen's mercy? He didn't want that to happen.
"Since that's the case, and you are a guest, it would be impolite of me not to entertain you at my home. Let's do it another day."
"Please come in."
After Zhou Zhizhi finished speaking, she turned around and went back to her residence. In fact, her politeness was just a pretense; she deliberately put on a show to let Madam Chen know that she did not welcome her family.
But sometimes, people's skin really can't be described in any other way, because it's just too thick.
After Zhou Zhizhi left, Madam Chen followed her. In any household, she would grumble and complain about anything that didn't go her way.
"Oh my, how did these flowers end up here? These flowers were a tribute from the Western Regions, they are incredibly precious."
"If they are not properly pampered indoors and instead exposed to the wind and sun here, they will probably die before long."
“Dig up this flower and send it to your uncle to grow. He’s incredibly skilled at growing flowers.”
As he spoke, he tried to instruct the servants beside him to dig up the flower, which was actually a tribute from the Western Regions, or even a gift from the emperor.
This was a gift from the Emperor; this fool had no idea what would happen if he dug up this flower.
"Slowpoke!"
"Madam, these flowers are a gift from the Emperor..."
The meaning is actually quite obvious.
Even if Madam Chen were a fool, she would still understand what was meant.
He could only give an awkward laugh and quickly nod.
"I don't understand either. Let's keep going then. Oh dear, where does your aunt live?"
Although Zhou Zhizhi never called him aunt.
But we have to use all the identities we need to, otherwise how will we suppress them in the future?
Zhou Zhizhi didn't say anything, she just kept walking forward.
This backyard is usually used to entertain guests. Although it was a bit abandoned, it has been tidied up to a near-complete state.
After all, my cousin is staying in this courtyard today, so if the courtyard is a little further away, I can have some peace and quiet.
