Chapter 109: Secret
Mrs. Luo prepared a stomach full of words to convince Mrs. Tai, since she would not stop the topic as soon as Mrs. Tai refused her!
However, Mrs. Luo was smart and clever, and realized that Mrs. Tai didn't like her to say these words in front of Gu Zheng, so she immediately found an excuse to send Gu Zheng out: "Bend, you go outside first, I have something to say to your grandmother alone, it's inconvenient for you to listen here!" β
Seeing that Mrs. Luo refused to stop the topic, Mrs. Tai could only follow her words and coax Gu Zheng out: "Be obedient, go back first!" Grandmother and your aunt will talk for a while, and you will come back in the afternoon to talk to your grandmother to relieve her boredom. β
Since Mrs. Tai also spoke at the same time, Gu Zheng couldn't continue to stay in the room to listen to their conversation, after all, whenever a little girl in this era heard someone talk about her family affairs, she had to pretend to be shy to avoid it, and cut off the reason that she didn't stay aside to participate in the discussion...... So Gu Zheng could only bend his knees in a depressed heart, and after leaving Rongshou Hall, he didn't really go back to Tingquan Courtyard stupidly, but found an opportunity to quietly hide in the cubicle next to the hall and eavesdrop on the conversation between Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Tai.
As soon as Gu Zheng left, Mrs. Luo immediately told her wishful thinking: "Mother, I think soβββ now that our family is in such a predicament, sooner or later we have to pick a kid to inherit the incense, so it is better to choose Chun'er from my second sister's family, and then let Chun'er marry our cousin!" In this way, isn't this business still inherited by those who keep the blood of the Cen family? β
Mrs. Luo's words surprised Mrs. Tai, and immediately raised her eyes and glanced at her, Mrs. Luo was afraid that Mrs. Tai would refuse again, so she hurriedly encouraged: "I know that you have always felt ashamed of the deceased aunt 'milk' and 'milk' in your heart, and you are bent on compensating your cousin, the only orphan of your aunt' and 'milk', so why don't you just use my method to 'hand' our Cen family's family business into the hands of my cousin's husband and wife?" β
Mrs. Luo observed Mrs. Tai's expression intently as she spoke, and saw that there was no displeasure on Mrs. Tai's face, and she didn't say anything to interrupt her words, she seemed to be a little moved by her, and immediately continued to encourage while the iron was hot: "Originally, we could have allowed a few girls in our family to recruit sons-in-law, but if we talk about recruiting sons-in-law, I don't think anyone needs it more than my cousinβββ if my cousin recruits her 'door'' Son-in-law, then you don't have to worry about marrying into your husband's family in the future and being despised and bullied because of your life experience, and you can inherit our Cen family's family business. β
Mrs. Tai thought that Mrs. Luo couldn't come up with any good ideas, so when she heard Mrs. Luo's idea, Mrs. Tai was greatly surprised, and her face began to change because of Mrs. Luo's wordsβββ Mrs. Luo really grasped Mrs. Tai's mind this time, Mrs. Tai really loved Gu Zheng, and wanted to do something to make up for the debt to Gu Liniang.
If she could, Mrs. Tai was really willing to let Gu Zheng's children inherit the Cen family's family business......
Since Mrs. Tai had the heart to make up for Gu Zheng, this time she did not unceremoniously refuse Mrs. Luo's proposal as before, but after thinking carefully for a while, she gave Mrs. Luo a hope: "I have to think about this matter carefully before making a decision, you go back first, and when I think about it clearly, I will come to you to discuss." β
Although Mrs. Tai did not agree, she did not refuse, which made Mrs. Luo suddenly full of joy and excitement, and secretly felt that Mrs. Tai was really moved by her proposal this time! So when she left Rongshoutang, Mrs. Luo could be said to be full of joy and wind under her feet, which made Gu Zheng, who was hiding in the compartment, feel bad when she saw it, and was a little worried that Mrs. Tai would be instigated by Mrs. Luo......
Gu Zheng stood silently in the compartment for a while, and after sorting things out from beginning to end, he finally decided to face Mrs. Tai with an open heart and honesty, and tell Mrs. Tai her wishes clearly!
After making up his mind, Gu Zheng swept away his solemn look, strode into the inner room with a resolute face, and knelt down as soon as he saw Mrs. Tai, looked at Mrs. Tai with firm eyes, and bluntly rejected Mrs. Luo's arrangement: "Grandmother, I don't want to marry Cousin Zhou, I don't want to marry anyone, I want to be by my grandmother's side all the time!" β
"Silly girl! How can there be a girl whose parents don't marry? Grandmother doesn't want to raise you to be an old girl! β
Mrs. Tai knew that Gu Zheng was a smart and assertive child, so she did not hide Mrs. Luo's intentions from her, and Mrs. Luo's intentions in 1510 told Gu Zheng: "If you really fulfill your aunt's wishes and let the Zhou family kid succeed to our Cen family, then your aunt can be regarded as fulfilling her wish and fulfilling her wishes, and she will really not make a fuss in the future, and she will treat you as her own......"
"But grandmother cares more about your own thoughts, grandmother will not force you to do what you don't want to do at any time," Mrs. Tai said and looked at Gu Zheng with burning eyes, and asked in a serious tone: "Wanwan, are you willing to accept your uncle's arrangement and stay in the Cen family and be protected by the Cen family for the rest of your life?" β
Gu Zheng didn't answer Mrs. Tai's question, but smiled sweetly at Mrs. Tai in turn: "Grandmother, in fact, there is another person who is also very suitable for passing under his uncle's knees, this person has never mentioned it to his grandmother before, because he ......"
Gu Zheng actually hid a secret in her heart that she had always wanted to find a suitable opportunity to tell, and this time she was passively involved in the matter of the Cen family's heirs, and finally found a suitable opportunity to tell Mrs. Tai about this secret...... After hearing this, Mrs. Tai's face was full of shock and disbelief: "Why haven't I heard your mother mention this matter?" β
When it came to Gu Liniang and Gu Zheng's expressions, they couldn't help but feel a little gloomy: "My mother said that it was not easy for us to gain a firm foothold in the Cen family's compound, and said that we should not tell our grandmother about this matter first, and wait until we have a firm foothold...... Find another opportunity to tell my grandmother about this, my mother is also afraid of ......"
After hearing this, Mrs. Tai looked at Gu Zheng for a moment, and finally waved her hand to go back first: "What you said about this matter is a bit sudden, I have to think about it carefully, and then call your uncle over to discuss it carefully before I can make a decision......
Gu Zheng also knew that she said this matter a little suddenly, and Mrs. Tai's reaction was also within her expectations, but Gu Zheng was more concerned about her family affairs, so she quickly put this matter aside for the time being and seriously answered the question asked by Mrs. Tai earlier: "Grandmother, it's not that I don't want to accept the protection of the family all the time, I just don't want to let my aunt '' control me for the rest of my life, whether it's Cousin Luo or Cousin Zhou, I don't want to marry them!" β
Seeing Gu Zheng's firm tone, Mrs. Tai couldn't help but put aside the previous incident and joked with a smile: "Oh? You don't like either of them? So tell your grandmother about what kind of person you want to marry? β
"Grandmother, you're making fun of me!"
Gu Zheng is really not used to talking to Mrs. Tai about such a 'private' matter, but although Gu Zheng thinks that she has always been a very reserved and shy pseudo-Lori, in order to avoid being 'messed up' by others in the future, she still expressed her wishes in a small voice: "My husband, I must choose by myself, he not only has to be the person I am satisfied with and like, but also must be able to pass my test of him." β
Mrs. Tai hadn't seen Gu Zheng shyly make a little 'girl' posture for a while, so she couldn't help but be interested, and joked with Gu Zheng one after another: "What if you can't pick such a person?" How's that to be? β
"Grandmother, can't you think about the bright side? Can't you assume that not only have I found a husband who agrees, but also that he is only eight buckets tall and the 'jade' tree is in the wind, and he is a good son-in-law who is rare in a hundred years? Gu Zheng pulled Mrs. Tai's sleeve and pouted in dissatisfaction, and after protesting, he did not forget to express his attitude in a firm tone: "I will definitely find a husband who agrees, if I really can't find it, then I would rather lack than abuse, and I would rather never marry!" β
