Chapter 21 Zhao's Forced Marriage
In the backyard of Zhou's house, Mrs. Zhou was sitting in the main seat with a face that could not see any thoughts, while Li Hanyu's wet nurse Zhao looked happily at Zhou Chongxiao who entered the door, with malicious light in her eyes.
Zhou Chongxiao entered the room with a blank face and then said hello to his mother.
"You just bathed in the house?" She picked up the tea cup, and Mrs. Zhou asked in a low voice.
"Yes." Zhou Chongxiao answered honestly.
"Has Han Yu gone?"
"Yes, my cousin sent me a quilt."
The tea cup in Mrs. Zhou's hand fell hard on the table and said sharply, "So, is it true that the nurse said that you walked around the room bare?"
Zhou Chongxiao was shocked. Seeing that Mrs. Zhou's face was really terrible, he hurriedly defended, "That's the child who just walked out of the bathtub..."
"FUCK!" Mrs. Zhou was furious, "Han Yu is a big daughter. How can you do such a thing in front of her?"
"Mom, I didn't mean to, just coincide..."
"Madam, calm down, I believe that the young master is definitely not careful." Zhao said at this time, "Besides, they are an unmarried couple recognized by the two families. Sooner or later..."
"Nanny, don't talk about it. This is Chongxiao's fault. I will definitely punish him well." Mrs. Zhou interrupted Zhao's words, "Come on, put the young master in the woodshed. Without my permission, you are absolutely not allowed to let him out."
"Mother!" Zhou Chongxiao didn't expect Mrs. Zhou to be so cruel. Since he was a child, he has never suffered, but now he has to be so severely punished for an unintentional.
After the servants took Zhou Chongxiao down, Mrs. Zhou put down her serious face and showed a sad expression.
However, the wet nurse Zhao is not so easy to be sent. She still refused to let go of this opportunity easily. As she observed Mrs. Zhou's face, she turned all kinds of words in her mind.
Just as the two were thinking about each other, Li Hanyu came out of the back room.
There is still a strange crimson on her face. Obviously, the impact of the picture she saw earlier is too great, and the impact has not completely subsided until now.
"Auntie, didn't you say that my cousin would come to have dinner together? Why hasn't he come yet?" Li Hanyu asked quietly, and her face was even more red and particularly beautiful.
Mrs. Zhou didn't have time to explain. Zhao had taken a quicker and said, "My cousin was locked in the woodshed."
Li Hanyu turned his head to look at Mrs. Zhou puzzledly. How can it be so good that it locks people in?
"Han Yu, come on." Mrs. Zhou took Li Hanyu's hand, asked her to sit down in the chair opposite her, and then said earnestly, "Now you are the guest of our family. Although you and Chongxiao were very close when you were a child, your parents and I also discussed that you two would have a good relationship. But after all, it's something that hasn't been confirmed yet. Besides, even if you two have been married, as long as you haven't passed the door, you are still innocent. Now this bastard Chongxiao has done such a bad thing. If it spreads and stains your innocent reputation, how can it be good?
Li Hanyu understood what Mrs. Zhou was referring to, and she couldn't help lowering her head so much that she couldn't see.
Zhao said excitedly, "Since my wife is afraid of rumors about this matter, it's better to have the marriage of the two people directly. Isn't this just right?"
"After all, I have to discuss this kind of thing as marriage before I can do it with Mrs. Li! How can it be done with a casual word? Mrs. Zhou sighed, "It's all because of Chongxiao. Since I met the little goblin surnamed Xuanyuan, this behavior has become more and more unruly."
Mrs. Zhou's words evoked the memory of Xuanyuanbi. She was very clear about Xuanyuan's ability, and her sense of crisis greatly increased, and she strengthened her determination to take this opportunity to complete the marriage between Li Hanyu and Zhou Chongxiao.
"Madam, how about this! The old slave went back to Li's house and said to the old man and his wife. After discussing a perfect plan, he would come back to pick up the young lady home.
"So far, it has to be like this." Mrs. Zhou no longer refuted it, so as not to fall into the guish, so she followed the Zhao family.
Zhao Shi returned to the room to clean up his soft clothes and said, "This time, I have to let my cousin marry a young lady. I see, what else can you little monster do to continue to pester the young master, huh!"
On the cloud cliff, Xuan Yuanbi, who was sleeping, sneezed big, rubbed her nose, turned over and continued to sleep.
Tao Qingqing, who was guarding her, was nervous for a long time, but found that she still had not changed anything. She frowned as soon as the old woman in her 70 or 80s.
"It's really strange. Bier has absorbed so much Diliu pulp. Why hasn't there been any change at all?" With full of doubts, Tao Qingqing continued his own practice.
After returning to her room, Mrs. Zhou sighed for a long time.
The maid Qiu Yue carefully poured a cup of tea and asked softly, "Madam, since you also like your cousin, why don't you take this opportunity to let the young master and your cousin get married?"
"Qiu Yue, is this matter really Chongxiao's fault?"
"Hmm. The maidservant also felt that the young master should not behave like that.
"Since it is Chongxiao's fault, if he obeys Zhao's request, in the future, Zhao will use this accident as an excuse to suppress Chongxiao so that he can't raise his head." Mrs. Zhou took a cup of tea and continued, "Han Yu is a good boy, but that wet nurse is not an easy role. Our Zhou family is a famous family. I am such an only son as Chongxiao. I will never let him be wronged at all.
"So it is. I understand." Qiu Yue continued to ask with an learned expression, "What should we do if the maid of the cousin comes back with the messages of Master Li and Mrs. Li this time? After all, in those years, you said verbally to Mr. Li and Mrs. Li that you wanted to get married with two Qin and Jin. You can't go back on your word!"
"Actually, if I could, as early as the year of Han Yu and Yan, I made the decision to let Chongxiao welcome her into the door. After all, it's not a good thing to delay other girls for so many years.
"Is there anything hidden in it?" The autumn moon suddenly became curious.
Mrs. Zhou nodded and said, "Although he has been far away in the capital for many years, he doesn't seem to be satisfied with Han Yu's daughter-in-law."
Qiu Yue was stunned. No matter how many times her mind turns, she doesn't expect that this matter will have something to do with the Master Zhou family, whom she hasn't seen for many years.
