"Who do you think will propose marriage?"
"It's Marshal Zhou's family from the neighboring province. They want to form an alliance with ours." The housekeeper said respectfully, "They just arrived too and look exhausted. Please go in and take a look."
"Mr. Yi, you see, my Yuan Ming is a promising young man, good in every aspect, and a perfect match for your daughter.
We come here with sincerity this time, please take a look at these things.
Also, if the two provinces form an alliance, they can look after each other if anything happens in the future."
As soon as Tu Qingyu came in, he heard these words.
Today she was wearing a light purple top with wide sleeves, the neckline of which was delicately embroidered, and a jade placket hung on her chest.
She wore a white skirt with small lace and a pair of black leather shoes.
She walked in slowly, and they seemed to really see the concrete mist and rain of Jiangnan in her.
That misty, caressing feeling.
Coupled with that peerless beauty, it was enough to make everyone present stunned.
Zhou Yuanming came back to his senses after she came closer. He stood up, looked at Tu Qingyu and smiled: "We meet again."
His face was still very pale, and it looked as if he was not fully recovered.
When he stood up, he needed the support of his attendants.
Tu Qingyu sneered, "Why? Didn't I satisfy you enough that day? Do you want me to shoot you again?"
"What did you say?!" Mrs. Zhou immediately stood up, eyes full of disbelief, "Are you saying that you were the one who injured my son?!"
"No." Tu Qingyu denied.
"I'm just saying." She stroked her chest, "A little girl..."
How could you shoot someone with a gun?
Before he could finish his words, the little girl spoke again, "I didn't want to shoot him. He was such a jerk that he begged me to shoot him."
Her tone was soft and her voice was not loud, but it was enough to make people angry.
“You, you…”
Mrs. Zhou's face turned pale with anger. She sat back on the sofa, already thinking in her mind whether her decision to propose marriage was the right one.
I looked up at my son, but saw that he was looking at Tu Qingyu with an obsessed look.
Zhou Yuanming noticed his mother's gaze, looked down, and immediately understood what his mother meant.
He frowned and said, "Mom, what did I say before I came?"
I have clearly explained that no matter what happens after you get here, the goal will not change.
Today, he must settle this matter.
If he can't marry the woman in front of him in this life, he would rather not marry at all.
"But she..." Her face was full of hesitation.
Tu Qingyu sat down on the sofa and began to speak slowly, "But I can't cook, serve my parents-in-law, or do anything else. When I'm in a bad mood, I'll even take out a gun and shoot people, just like I did that day when I satisfied the rude request of that weak-kneed man.
But I have the support of the Marshal's Mansion, so even if I beat him to death, I won't be in any trouble."
Her tone was so arrogant that even Yi Zhongxing and his son looked at her in surprise.
"What's wrong?" She looked back innocently, "Aren't you my father and brother? If something happens to me, won't you support me?"
Yi Zhiyuan hid the smile in his eyes and nodded helplessly, "Indeed, you are my sister. No matter what happens to you, I will stand by you."
"Is this how you, the Yi family, raise your daughters?" Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but ask.
Yi Zhongxing was unhappy at the time. He frowned and said, "It's not your place to say how we raise our daughter! No matter what she is like, you still came to our house and asked for her hand in marriage."
"I'm telling you, I don't agree!" He snorted twice, "I can't possibly marry my daughter to your family. Hurry up and take your things and get out. Don't make me chase you away."
"My family came here sincerely to propose marriage, why is Mr. Yi chasing us away?" She didn't understand. She was just a girl they found halfway, weren't the conditions they offered enough?
Yi Zhongxing: "Are you really here to propose marriage? I don't see any similarities between you and your son."
"Someone come!" Yi Zhiyuan also stood up at this time, "Show the guest away!"
Zhou Yuanming was unwilling to give in. He wanted to say something else, but the soldier standing behind him didn't allow him to say anything more.
The two were asked to leave the Yi family mansion. Mrs. Zhou was very angry when she saw the closed door.
"What the hell! How dare they do this to us?!" She was so angry that she started cursing, "Isn't the Yi family afraid of making enemies with my Zhou family?"
"My Zhou family also controls the power of an entire province. It's not like your Yi family is the only one with great power. We've been so humble, and yet you're kicking us out just like that?"
Zhou Yuanming lowered his eyes, his eyes filled with incomprehensible emotions. He spoke in a hoarse voice, "Let's go, Mom."
Since etiquette doesn't work, then use force.
This Hongcheng is indeed the territory of his Yi family, but he just doesn't believe it. In this Hongcheng, there is no force that is without ulterior motives.
If the Zhou family extends an olive branch, is there really anyone who wouldn't be tempted?
"Let's go back and take the soldiers my father gave us." He raised his eyes, his eyes full of calculation.
Mrs. Zhou was a little confused. Why did the topic change so quickly?
"What are you bringing troops for?" She looked at her son's face and hurriedly advised, "Son, don't act rashly. After all, this is the Yi family's place. Your father is not here, and we are outnumbered here. Don't be impulsive."
Zhou Yuanming curled his lips and smiled, "Mom, what are you thinking? I didn't say I wanted to make things difficult for the Yi family."
"Then what are you doing..."
"Go to the Liu family and settle the accounts."
He was injured at the Liu family, so the Liu family should at least give an explanation, right?
After seeing off the Zhou family, Yi Zhongxing's first reaction was to go upstairs to find Wen Huanfu to ask for credit.
"Huan'er, that boy is so weak. How can I marry my daughter to him so easily?" As he spoke, his eyes were always on Wen Huanfu, with hope in his eyes.
Wen Huanfu turned sideways, avoiding his approaching gesture, with a very cold expression.
"That's good. Let Qingyu decide for herself what kind of person she wants to marry."
Seeing her evasive action, the light in his eyes dimmed instantly, "Yes, that's what I mean."
Seeing that she stopped talking, he spoke again, "The weather outside has been very good these days, do you want to go out for a walk?"
"You haven't been out for several days. There's a new variety of flowers blooming in the garden. Why don't you go down and take a look? I think you'd like it."
"If you don't want to stay at home, you can go out. I'll take you for a walk by the river. The view over there by the moat should be very nice right now."
Wen Huanfu stood up and said, "No need. I'm fine at home. Qingyu found me two novels the other day. I think they're very good."
