Zuo Baozhu was extremely favored in the Zuo family, so she spoke directly and bluntly, "Sister-in-law, are you doing this for your brother?"
Miao Xiangmeng saw that Zuo Baozhu understood what she said and thought she wanted to help. "Yes, you've seen Xiangdong before. He's good-looking and gentle to girls. He's a good match for Shi Miao."
If her brother could marry Shi Miao and bring him home, her father's illegitimate son would have no chance of shaking her brother's position.
Zuo Baozhu rolled her eyes. "Sister-in-law, your brother is bisexual, okay? I didn't know he had countless boyfriends. Why do you think he was dumped by his ex-girlfriend? It was because he was caught kissing a man."
What kind of rubbish dared to covet her idol! It was because the Miao family had some influence outside that Miao Xiangdong was able to suppress these messes. However, Zuo Baozhu held an extraordinary position in the family, and most of the Zuo family's information was open to her.
Miao Xiangmeng's face was filled with embarrassment, which was followed by anger. "What nonsense are you talking about? How could he have a boyfriend? Xiangdong has been influenced by the open-minded culture abroad, and he has no boundaries when interacting with his friends. They are not in that kind of relationship. If you don't want to help, then forget it, but don't slander Xiangdong."
She also had a faint murmur in her heart, could this not be true?
Zuo Baozhu snorted, "I won't help you anyway." She would have to remind her idol then!
Miao Xiangmeng was dissatisfied. Even if her brother had some problems, wouldn't it be fine as long as he changed? As the saying goes, a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold. They are all relatives, so why is Baozhu still so disloyal?
However, Zuo Baozhu's status in the Zuo family was higher than her husband's, and she was particularly well-respected by her grandfather. Miao Xiangmeng didn't dare show her displeasure, fearing she would complain to the elders. She could only force a smile and said, "I was just saying this. Here are some fruits I washed. You can enjoy them when you have time."
Putting the fruit on the table, she turned and left.
Miao Xiangmeng quickly went to ask her brother about this matter. Her brother Miao Xiangdong showed an embarrassed expression, "Who whispered something nonsense in your ear?"
Miao Xiangmeng said, "Who else could it be? Isn't it Baozhu? She also said that your ex-girlfriend dumped you because you are bisexual."
Miao Xiangdong said: "I'm just playing with friends. Once I have a girlfriend, I will definitely settle down. I really don't date men." At most, they are just friends with benefits.
Miao Xiangmeng's eyebrows relaxed when she heard this, and she advised her, "Then you must behave well in front of Shi Miao. If you can get her to marry you, you can save fifty years of hard work."
Although Miao Xiangmeng had heard rumors about Shi Miao and Ji Jingyao, she didn't take them seriously. The rumors had been circulating for so long, and they hadn't actually agreed to get married, which clearly showed they weren't meant to be. Also, Ji Jingyao clearly had no idea how to comfort a girl, unlike her brother, who was so understanding. Aren't girls these days all about emotional value? Her brother definitely had that in spades.
Miao Xiangdong was dumbfounded. Pursuing Shi Miao? How could he dare! If his dark history was exposed, he would lose all face. Didn't her sister know Shi Miao's ability? Wasn't this just tricking him?
He coughed lightly and said perfunctorily, "Let's see."
Of course, he still listened to part of his sister's words. Shi Miao didn't dare to make any plans, but others could try.
Shi Miao’s apprentice status is also quite high… but it will involve Shi Miao, so I’ll skip it.
Li Yanran, the eldest daughter of the Li family... No, she doesn't look like someone who can be easily manipulated, and she also has a good relationship with Shi Miao. Also skip this.
There's another eldest daughter of the Li family, Li Mei... I heard her fiancé recently broke off their engagement for a clumsy assistant who was always fetching food and coffee. Yes! You can choose her! I heard Li Mei is also very favored at home. At her coming-of-age birthday party, her family elders not only gave her real estate like a house and a shop, but also company stock. Remember, Miao Xiangdong is already 25, and his father hasn't even given him any shares in his company.
He liked fiancées with generous dowries like this, and Li Mei had just been dumped and was deeply hurt, so now was a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
In other words, Miao Xiangdong didn't know that Li Mei was Shi Miao's neighbor and had a good relationship with Shi Miao. Otherwise, even if he had a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to make any moves on Li Mei.
…
After settling down again, the Zuo family began to send out invitations.
Both Shi Miao and Ji Jingyao received it, but Ji Jingyao directly refused it.
Shi Miao originally wanted to refuse, but her intuition reminded her that she should go, so she changed her mind and said, "I will go with my mother when the time comes."
"Okay." Wen Ying sent an accurate reply to the Zuo family.
Zuo Baozhu was extremely excited after receiving the reply from the Wen family. Although it was a pity that Ji Jingyao didn't come, so she couldn't ship the couple on the spot, for her, being able to see Shi Miao was more important! She must not miss this opportunity, at least to make herself familiar to Shi Miao.
She happily told her grandfather about this. Zuo Haoran looked at her lovingly and said, "It's rare to see you so excited. You can come forward to entertain Shi Miao when the time comes. You two are not much different in age, so you will have more common topics to talk about."
He took this opportunity to test Shi Miao's strengths and weaknesses, to see if he had stolen the Zuo family's techniques and used the method of refining dragon veins to break through. If so, how would he solve this problem without the Dragon Girl bearing the backlash?
Zuo Haoran wasn't worried about whether the other party would see Baozhu's identity. The things Baozhu wore could well conceal the dragon aura emanating from her.
The Zuo family banquet is scheduled for December, and Zuo Haoran plans to break through to the Golden Core stage before then, otherwise he will be suppressed by Shi Miao.
