Chapter 66: Disappointment

The old lady was angry again, Saitama has been staying in the old lady's courtyard these days, not going back to her own yard, serving without clothes, even she herself has boiled out dark circles under her eyes, and Li's mother is distressed when she sees it. This time the old woman fell ill, Saitama was very puzzled, vaguely knew that it might be related to the lady who came to the door that day, but she had no way of knowing what the specific reason was.

On this night, the old lady's spirit was slightly better, and Saitama stayed at the old lady's side to have fun. At this time, a maid suddenly came to report, Zhang Zan and Liu came to see the old lady together. After seeing the eldest uncle and aunt, Saitama was about to order the maid to serve tea, when he heard Liu say:

"Sister Yu, you go down and rest first, your eldest uncle has something to tell your grandmother. ”

"Yes. Saitama replied softly and left with Autumn Frost. When Saitama left the sight, Zhang Zan slowly said to the old lady:

"Mother, are you feeling better?" the old lady nodded.

"Thanks to Yu'er for taking care of me here. ”

"Sister Yu is a filial child. Liu agreed.

"Mother, I have come here today to ask my mother for my sin. After Zhang Zan finished speaking, he knelt on the ground, and Liu also quickly knelt down, the old lady had a trace of disagreement in her heart, but she didn't show it, just said lightly:

"Say it. ”

"The son has already agreed to the Chu family's proposal. ”

"What?" the old lady slammed to her feet, but fell down again from dizziness.

"How can you do this, this is Yu'er's family business. ”

"Mother, Ying'er is also your own granddaughter, if it weren't for the incident of Shouwang last time, Ying'er would have married smoothly. But it has been delayed until now, and finally someone has come to the door to ask for relatives. Yu'er is still young, so let's find a suitable one in the future. Zhang Zan argued, and Liu was already crying on the side.

"You go out, I don't want to see you again!

"Mother, there is one more thing, my second brother and I have already discussed, we want to send Saitama to the palace for the draft, so Saitama's family affairs, my mother doesn't have to worry about it. Zhang Zan's words were like a knife piercing the old lady's heart, and she fainted immediately.

"Master, are we in a hurry? What if the old lady has any three longs and two shorts?"

After the doctor came, he pricked a few acupuncture points with silver needles, and the old lady woke up slowly. The old lady saw that Zhang Zan and Zhang Hou were surrounded by her, and she was unhappy. Zhang Zan and Zhang Hou saw that their mother woke up, and they finally put their hearts at ease. After a while, the maid sent the boiled medicine, and Zhang Zan motioned for Liu to go up and feed the medicine, but Liu was just about to take it from Hong Aya's hand, and the old lady said:

"No, Red Aya is waiting for me to take medicine. Liu retracted his hand in embarrassment and stood aside.

After serving the old lady and taking the medicine, Zhang Hou said:

"Mother, let's rest today, and the sons will retire first. ”

The old lady glanced at them and said:

"You two come here, I have something to say, and the others will stand down first. Liu and Wang glanced at each other, said to let their mother take good care, and withdrew. Red Aya helped the old lady to sit up and put a large pillow behind her.

"What the boss said, have you already discussed?" Zhang Zan and Zhang Hou glanced at each other, and both nodded.

"I won't talk about the affairs of the Chu family, such a capricious family, whoever sees it will go, but why send Saitama into the palace?" Zhang Zan pondered for a moment and said:

"Mother, although the situation between the DPRK and China is uncertain now, my second brother and I both believe that it is orthodox to support the crown prince. But Qi Ying's matter made me have to stand on the side of King Shou, if King Shou loses, our Zhang family will lose support, and the future will be very sad, so at present, we can only find a way to take the boat of the prince. And the easiest way is to let the daughter of our Zhang family enter the prince's mansion. ”

The old lady suppressed the anger in her heart,

"That's why you chose Saitama, but how can you guarantee that she will be able to enter the prince's palace and not other palaces. ”

"This, naturally, there will be a way. ”

"Why Saitama?" Zhang Zan listened and said:

"My son has also considered Qi Ying, but Ying'er has been out of the Shou King, and Ying'er is not ordinary, even if she enters the palace, it may not be of much use. Therefore, I consulted my second brother, and I chose Saitama. The old lady turned her face and glanced at Zhang Hou.

The son knew that his mother liked Saitama and was reluctant to let her enter the palace, but only she and Qijiao were of the right age. Qi Jiao's ......"

Zhang Hou hesitated, he couldn't directly say that Saitama had a scheming and helped the house the most. This will inevitably cause the old lady's displeasure. So he decided to use the Guogong Mansion as a shield.

"The Duchess of Guo has a crush on Qi Jiao, so choosing Qi Jiao will offend the Guo Gong Mansion. ”

The old lady sneered twice,

"I see, that's why you chose this kid who no one cares about. ”

"Mother, the Zhang family provides them with glory and wealth, they enjoy all this, and of course they stand up when the Zhang family needs them. Zhang Hou said.

"I tell you now, I have taken care of this girl, and if you want to send her to the palace, unless I die. ”

"Mother!" Zhang Zan and Zhang Hou were both a little anxious and shouted together.

"Get out!" said the old lady. Zhang Zan and Zhang Hou had no choice but to retreat.

"Where's Yu'er?" the old lady asked the red silk standing beside her.

"When the old lady fainted just now, several young ladies were outside, and then the eldest lady and the second lady let them go back first. ”

"Go and call Yu'er over, I have something to say to her. ”

"Old lady, it's not early at this time, you just woke up, and your body is still weak, or ......"

"Call now!" said the old lady's tone, low but unmistakable. Red Aya had no choice but to bow down.

Saitama was worried about the old lady's illness, and when she returned to the hospital, she did not rest, and Mother Li brought a bowl of soup and said:

"Miss, you haven't had a good rest these days, look at the dark circles under your eyes, this is my rock sugar bird's nest, drink some tonics. Saitama took the bowl and drank it slowly.

"Didn't the old lady get up early this morning, why did she faint?

"Maybe the eldest uncle said something to the old lady, they went in with the front foot, and the old lady fainted with the back foot.

"The old lady is also very sick this time, how can she say that she is sick. Saitama shook her head a little dazedly,

"Or the old slave will go and inquire. ”

"No, my grandmother thinks she will let me know, and she will naturally say. After eating the porridge, Saitama Kazui was lying on the bed, and she was also a little tired these days. As soon as I was about to fall asleep in a daze, I heard a voice talking outside. What "second lady", "old lady" and "sleeping", intermittently can't really be heard.

"Who's out there?" Saitama raised his voice and asked, and then he heard Autumn Frost's voice,

"Miss woke up. The old lady said to let the young lady come over. Saitama hurriedly sat up and urged Qiu Yan and Liang'er to comb her hair and change her clothes. Saitama was worried about the old lady in her heart, and she walked relatively fast, and when she was at the gate of Zhengde Temple, she accidentally saw Zhang Hou, obviously waiting for her.

"Saitama, my father has something to say to you. This means, of course, to keep the maid aside. Saitama walked up to Zhang Hou.

"When I came back from Shandong, I didn't say a few words to you. Saitama listened to Zhang Hou's words quietly, and did not make a sound, waiting for Zhang Hou's next words.

"You can bring Aunt Liang safely to the capital, which means that your father did not misunderstand you. But what the Father promised you has been fulfilled, but don't forget that the time has come for you to fulfill what you promised. Saitama looked at her father puzzled.

"Now it's time for you to contribute to the interests of the Zhang family. ”

"What does Father mean?"

"In this year's draft, you will go for your father's will. ”

"But, father, daughter doesn't want to enter the palace. ”

"It's not a question of whether you want to or not, it's something that has to go. Don't forget our agreement. When you go in later, persuade the old lady not to say anything that should not be said. After saying that, Zhang Hou turned around and left, without giving Saitama a chance to speak.

When Saitama heard the word "enter the palace", it was like a thunderclap in his ears, his ears were buzzing, and his head was blank. Qiushuang on the side saw Zhang Hou leaving, and hurriedly walked to Saitama's side, but was startled by Saitama's appearance.

"Miss, what's wrong with you? Don't scare the slave. "It took a long time for Saitama to come to his senses,

"I'm fine. After speaking, he walked towards the door of Zhengdetang, and the steps under his feet were extremely heavy, and it was not until he was fast entering the old lady's inner room that Saitama adjusted his emotions and changed to a smiling face.

"Grandmother, you're fine, Yu'er is so worried about you. The old lady leaning on the bed, with a gloomy face, beckoned to her, and Saitama hurried forward to take the old lady's thin but warm hand.

"Yu'er, grandmother is useless, she can't protect you well. When the old lady saw Saitama, her emotions that had just calmed down suddenly became excited. Saitama looked at her tearful grandmother, and her already suppressed feelings erupted, and she threw herself into her grandmother's arms and cried.
