Chapter 37 Rubbing my head
Nowadays, filial piety is the most important thing. If you sever ties with your biological father, you will be regarded as a cold-blooded and heartless person who does not recognize your relatives.
Leaving the clan is even more unrealistic.
The patriarchal system since the Western Zhou Dynasty is deeply rooted. If you leave the family, you will be like a rootless duckweed.
Moreover, officials value character and ability the most. Who would dare to make friends with such a cold-blooded, ruthless and mean person who has left his clan and disowned his biological father?
Su Zhenzhen sighed inwardly, "When Marquis Anyuan learned the truth of what happened, he came to His Majesty to plead for mercy, wanting to sever ties with his biological father. His Majesty agreed, but forbade him from leaving the family and conferred upon him the title of Marquis Anyuan."
Although His Majesty is wise, he also has concerns.
Su Zhenzhen's eyes darkened as she said to the crowd, "If Marquis Anyuan had grown up in the Qi Mansion, he would have been the eldest son raised in luxury, without having to struggle for a living. Since the family didn't cultivate him, there's no point in adding to his glory."
An unknown emotion flashed across Gu Hanyan's eyes, and he lowered his eyelashes.
Everyone fell into deep thought.
Su Zhenzhen smiled, "His Highness happened to be by His Majesty's side. He said that Marquis Anyuan was raised with great difficulty by his own mother, and he didn't enjoy the protection of his family. Instead, he had to be bullied by clan members he had never met, who relied on their generational differences to bully his orphan and widow, and told what to do. It was truly pitiful."
Ye Mingyan was silent for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Is it His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan?"
Gu Hanyue smiled and replied, "Who is the other His Highness that Zhenzhen is talking about?"
Lin Murou's tears welled up in her eyes from laughing. She reached out and poked the back of her hand, "You narrow-minded ghost!"
Su Zhenzhen said calmly, "Yes, it's His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan."
She won't blush, huh.
Ye Mingyan understood that Marquis Anyuan was previously a subordinate of His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, so naturally he had to speak well of him.
After all, he is His Majesty's most beloved son, so no matter how many concerns you have, it doesn't matter.
The emperor really thought so. He looked at Chen'er, whom he had doted on, and then at Qi Yide, who had depended on his mother for twenty years.
He softened his heart and said, "Forget it. Since the King of Yan pleads for you, then leave the clan. I don't want your military merits either. I will make you the Marquis of Anyuan."
Qi Yide is handsome, tall, muscular, and exudes a strong masculine aura.
With red eyes, he bowed deeply to His Majesty and said, "Your Majesty, I thank you. Long live the Emperor."
"I would like to change my surname, Your Majesty, please grant my permission."
Rong Yue was slightly stunned. What did it have to do with him whether he changed his surname or not?
He asked calmly, "You've already left the family, what does it have to do with me?"
This big fool is actually his Chen'er's subordinate?
Qi Yide, no, it was Tian Yide who cried with joy and kowtowed three times to His Majesty.
After saying this, Su Zhenzhen looked at Ye Mingyan eagerly.
"Mom, what are we having for dinner? Do you have the fruitwood roast duck that I like?"
Su Zhenzhen really loves roast duck, but she can only eat three or four pieces of roast duck rolls each time, which is not satisfying.
Ye Mingyan first looked at the Gu siblings and said, "It's getting late. Do Wen Min and Han Yan have any dietary restrictions? I can arrange dinner for them."
The two of them stood up politely and replied, "We have nothing to worry about. We will listen to Aunt Su."
"Zhenzhen, since you love roast duck so much, why don't you open a roast duck shop and sell it while you eat it?"
Lin Murou said this, and she meant it as a joke.
Su Zhenzhen shook her head seriously, and the white jade crabapple flower hairpin on her head swayed slightly, which was very beautiful.
"That's impossible. I don't have enough to eat myself. I can't bear to let the roast duck chef go out."
Ye Mingyan and the others were so shocked that they doubled over with laughter. "Zhenzhen, you're really something. You even named me the Roast Duck Chef. How can you be so narrow-minded?"
Su Zhenzhen gave a playful and cute smile, but she sighed inwardly, thinking that their sense of humor was too low.
I miss the funny short videos she watched...
As dusk sets in and night falls, the slanting sunlight falls on the back garden. The swaying light and shadow make it even more beautiful, as romantic as a fairyland on earth.
Su Zhenzhen was sitting on the swing under the crabapple tree, her little feet swinging intermittently, her slender white fingers holding the sturdy swing rope, which was wrapped with unknown but beautiful flowers.
She raised her little head and saw the father and his two sons walking towards her. Her smile was as bright as the morning glow. "Daddy, big brother, second brother, you are finally back. I am so hungry."
Su Qiyang was wearing a crimson official robe, with a Qilin jade pendant on his waist and a string of big, red candied haws in his hand.
Su Zhenzhen stared at him as he slowly walked towards her, her tone soft and sweet, "Thank you, Daddy."
As she was about to stand up and take it, Su Qiyang made a feint and put it behind her back.
Su Zhenzhen suddenly straightened the corners of her lips, with a look of resentment on her face, "Brother, Daddy bullied me."
Second brother Su Yu smiled and touched her head, but she glared at him, "Zhenzhen, how do you know daddy gave it to you? Yaojieer and Xuangeer can eat it too." But his little guy Zhougeer couldn't be touched yet.
Su Zhenzhen reached out and patted Su Yu who was trying to pull her hair. What a childish thing! It was all her fault that there was an extra small tuft in her hair today. "Daddy only brought one bunch. Mom doesn't like it, so it must be mine." She pinched Su Yu's arm hard.
Su Yu's handsome face suddenly turned ferocious, and he bared his teeth. "Zhenzhen, you are so fierce. Be careful that His Royal Highness Prince Yan will be afraid of you."
The girl's snow-white face was full of energy as she stretched out her hands to twirl her hair around her little bun. "I won't be so harsh to Your Highness. This is a special treat for you, Second Brother."
Su Qiyang watched the brother and sister bickering, trying to grab attention, "Zhenzhen, this is the candied haws that Daddy bought for you." He handed the candied haws to her.
Su Jun smiled and said, "Ayu, don't bully Zhenzhen. You are her father now."
Su Yu touched his high nose bridge and looked at Su Zhenzhen who was already eating the candied haws, and thought, forget it.
Anyway, he touched her hair today and was satisfied.
When can I rub Zhenzhen's hair until it's fluffy?
Su Zhenzhen narrowed her eyes slightly, and looked at Su Yu with scrutiny, receiving a smile from him.
Su Yue said at this time: "It's getting late, it's time to eat, don't let Zhenzhen starve."
Su Zhenzhen tilted her head and smiled at him, "Big brother really loves me, unlike my second brother who bullies others."
Su Junqing coughed. Actually, his hands were itching to do that too. Probably every brother would be obsessed with rubbing his sister's little head.
The bright and beautiful girl walked beside three tall men. She walked briskly and the hairpin on her head swayed gently, the curve of her hairpin was very elegant.
A crisp and soft sound was heard in the air.
"Dad, big brother, second brother, I ordered fruit wood roast duck again today. The imperial chef is worthy of being an imperial chef, it's delicious."
"Hey, big brother, what animal likes to eat ducks? Could it be that animal that Zhenzhen transformed into in her previous life?"
"Ayu, don't talk about your sister like that."
"I understand, Dad. Big brother, why did you hit me?"
"Second brother, haven't you realized your own family status yet?"
