Chapter 288: Compromised Madam Zhang
"Look carefully, where is this?" Xu Miaomiao looked at the woman in front of him and said, "At this time, Song Weiwei regained some of her rationality and looked around. When she saw that she was in the carriage, she was a little surprised. Why did you bring me out? Shopkeeper Wan and I haven't had enough to drink yet. I want to get drunk with him."
"Stop talking nonsense." When Xu Miaomiaomiao heard this, she flicked Song Weiwei's head with her hands, and Song Weiwei groaned in pain.
Xu Miaomiao took this opportunity to say, "You are a girl, and it is inappropriate for you to go out and drink with a man in the middle of the night and get so drunk."
Song Weiwei turned her head away when she heard Xu Miaomiao's complaints. Xu Miaomiao continued, "I know you feel bad, but there are many ways to relieve your pain. You shouldn't damage your body like this."
"Who said that? Didn't the doctor say that drinking a little wine every day is good for your health?"
"They said it was just a little wine." Xu Miaomiao said dissatisfiedly: "You are getting drunk all day long. Not only is it not beneficial, but it is probably wasting your life!"
"I know, I know, sister-in-law, you are becoming more and more wordy."
Song Weiwei pouted in dissatisfaction and looked at Xu Miaomiao.
Seeing that Xu Miaomiao still wanted to scold her, she immediately lay down on the carriage and pretended to be asleep.
Xu Miaomiao shook her head helplessly, glanced at Song Weiwei, and finally said nothing.
After returning home, Xu Miaomiao had a rare good sleep.
Now, the most important thing at the moment is to settle Gu Yuanniang's marriage.
On the second day, Xu Miaomiao asked everyone to take a day off and did not go to the department store. Instead, she took Gu Yuanniang into the house to talk about some personal matters.
Gu Yuanniang was pulled in by Xu Miaomiao, still a little puzzled, and looked at her and said, "What happened? Is the shop going to change something?"
"It's not about the shop." When Xu Miaomiao heard him say this, she immediately denied it and said, "It's time to talk about you, Liu Niang."
When Gu Yuanniang heard this, her face turned red, she lowered her head shyly, pinched the handkerchief in her hand, and said in a coquettish tone: "What else is there to talk about my affairs?"
"Now, the contract between you and Cui Yuan has been annulled. Mr. Xu has done so much for you, you should give him a legitimate status, right?"
When Gu Yuanniang heard Xu Miaomiao say this, she shook her hands in dissatisfaction: "What do you mean I should give him a status? It should be him who should give me a status, right?"
"Okay, okay, it's up to him to give you a legitimate status." Xu Miaomiao continued along with Gu Yuanniang's words: "Then have you decided when you will get married?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanniang lowered her head in disappointment, shook her head and said, "Last time, Madam Zhang called me to the backyard to talk to me about these things. She gave me three conditions, but I couldn't do any of them."
"What conditions?"
"First, I want to send Ling'er away after she turns fifteen. Second, I want to have another child. Third, I want to ask Mr. Song to find an official position for Qingshan."
Hearing these words, Xu Miaomiao's brows unconsciously frowned. Gu Yuanniang was afraid that she would misunderstand, so she immediately said, "Miaomiao, don't think too much. I have never thought of asking Mr. Song to get anything for Qingshan."
Xu Miaomiao put his hand on hers to comfort her and said, "Of course I know you don't have this idea, but if you don't do it, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Madam Zhang to go down this road."
Gu Yuanniang spread her hands indifferently, with a smile on her face: "Qingshan and I have figured it out now. It doesn't matter whether we get married or not. As long as we can be with each other, that's enough."
"But have you ever thought about Ling'er? It's okay when Ling'er is young, but if he is older, how will he view Xu Qingshan? How will you explain your relationship with Xu Qingshan to him? It would be better if you and Xu Qingshan got married early while he is still young, so that it can be considered legitimate."
"If you had said these things to me before, I would have certainly thought about it, but now I don't want to think about it anymore."
Gu Yuanniang continued, "Ling'er, although he doesn't have the love of his biological father, I can guarantee that my care for him will not be any less than those children whose parents are still alive. Moreover, even if Qingshan and I get married, I will tell him about Ling'er's life story when he grows up. I can't lie to him."
Xu Miaomiao nodded and patted Gu Yuanniang's hand comfortingly: "I know, but don't worry, I will definitely make Madam Zhang willingly let you in."
Xu Miaomiao said solemnly.
Gu Yuanniang tilted her head in confusion, but ultimately said nothing.
Taking advantage of the day's rest, Xu Miaomiao made the rare visit to the Xu family.
When she saw that it was Xu Miaomiao, Madam Zhang looked a little unhappy, and said in a stingy tone, "Why are you here? I only put forward three conditions, but she didn't agree to any of them. How dare you come to my house? If Qingshan hadn't been recovering these days, I would have locked him up at home and never let him meet that Gu Yuanniang again."
Xu Miaomiao waved to the boy beside her slowly and asked him to put the things on the ground. Looking at the dozens of red boxes on the ground, Madam Zhang asked in confusion, "What are these?"
"This is the gift for Madam Zhang today."
Xu Miaomiao explained, "I know that Liu Niang rejected your requests and you are a little unhappy. I also know that you did all this for their own good, but Madam Zhang, have you ever thought about how many life and death separations they have experienced? Xu Qingshan almost died just to be with Gu Yuanniang. Now you want to continue to obstruct them, then I can't guarantee that you can get a complete Xu Xianggong in the future."
"Are you threatening me?" Madam Zhang knocked on the wooden table beside her in dissatisfaction, then looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "Madam Zhang, don't be anxious."
Xu Miaomiao continued, "I don't mean to threaten you. I just think that they have sacrificed so much for each other, even their lives. Why don't you help them get married? And even if you want Xu Qingshan to marry someone else, will he really marry someone else? I'm sure you've already experienced this. Although the three conditions you put forward to Liu Niang are a bit excessive, there is still room for negotiation in the future. The most important thing now is to let them get married."
Xu Miaomiao spoke earnestly. When Madam Zhang heard what he said, she was stunned for a moment. She sat in her seat, lowered her head and thought about what he said.
When Xu Miaomiao came out of Xu's house, she already had a marriage certificate in her hand.
Xu Miaomiao curled the corners of her mouth slightly. Now, Liu Niang and Xu Qingshan's marriage was finally settled.
Xu Miaomiao sighed. When Gu Yuanniang saw the marriage certificate, she was a little surprised. She read it carefully many times before confirming that it was really the marriage certificate written by Xu Qingshan himself.
