The first thing Yuan Zhao heard when she entered was this sentence. She stopped in her tracks and looked at her father and brother in disbelief.
No wonder his father and brothers were so enthusiastic in asking Gu Qingchen before; it turns out they had this in mind.
She was both amused and exasperated.
Gu Qingchen was taken aback by Yuan Gu's words and his ears turned slightly red.
Yuan Gu continued:
"Although you are a son-in-law who has moved into our family home, we do not require your children to take our surname, Yuan."
"Because Zhaozhao was married before, and that man was not a good match, we were afraid that she would suffer again, so we wanted to keep an eye on her under our own noses."
"After you get married, you can establish your own residence. If you agree, we will immediately buy the house next door."
"As for your younger brother and sister, you can bring them along as well; we don't mind."
"Our only requirement is to treat Zhaozhao well and not let her down."
"Furthermore, my Yuan family does not practice the practice of taking concubines. You must write a guarantee that you will never take a concubine or have an extramarital affair in this lifetime."
"how?"
Gu Qingchen opened his mouth to reply, but Yuan Zhao couldn't stand it any longer and spoke first:
"Brother, why don't you ask what I think?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that Yuan Zhao had arrived at some point.
She first glanced at her father and brothers with displeasure, then apologized to Gu Qingchen:
"I'm sorry, Scholar Gu, just pretend you didn't hear what my father and brother just said."
Gu Qingchen's eyes darkened upon hearing this, and he gave a faint smile.
Seeing Yuan Zhao's cold face, the Yuan father and son dared not speak.
Yuan's father kept glaring at Yuan Gu: Didn't you say that Zhao Zhao looked at this top scholar with special regard? What's going on?
Yuan Gu also looked completely bewildered.
Both his wife and he had personally tested Zhao Zhao, and she clearly had a very good impression of Gu Qingchen.
Because of this mishap, today's meal was quite awkward.
After lunch, Gu Qingchen took his leave, and Yuan Zhao personally saw him off at the gate of the mansion.
"I am so sorry about what happened today. My father and brothers were just worried about me and caused a misunderstanding. Please forgive them, Scholar Gu."
Gu Qingchen gave a wry smile:
"Miss Yuan, there's no need for such formalities."
He paused for a moment and continued:
"Actually, I was going to agree to what your brother said before."
"I just didn't expect that this wasn't Miss Yuan's intention."
After saying this, he bowed again before Yuan Zhao could speak and then left.
Only after he left did Yuan Zhao realize what he meant.
She gave a wry smile.
If it weren't for these unpleasant things, Gu Qingchen would indeed be a good match. Unfortunately, even without Rong Ruo, she has no intention of marrying again in this life.
Thinking of Rong Ruo gave her a headache; now she still had to persuade her father and brothers.
When she returned, the three members of the Yuan family, father and sons, were still arguing.
"Is Zhao Zhao shy?"
"We shouldn't be in such a hurry."
Yuan Man couldn't help but say.
"What do you know?"
Yuan Gu had a cold face, and with Rong Ruo watching him intently from the side, he had to speed things up.
He was about to say something when he saw Yuan Zhao return, and quickly said:
“Zhaozhao…”
"Father, eldest brother, second brother, you don't need to help me find a husband anymore."
"I have someone I like."
Yuan Zhao gritted his teeth and said.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Gu's expression changed, while Yuan's father and Yuan Man were puzzled and even somewhat pleased.
Father Yuan hurriedly asked:
Who does Zhaozhao like?
