Chapter 106: The Old Husband and the Old Wife (I)

Zhuo Zhaojie didn't expect Ban to have such a sentence, and immediately froze.

Ban sneered and said, "That falcon has been coming back and forth every few days, back and forth so many times, do you still expect me and your grandfather to know nothing?!" ”

"I ......" Zhuo Zhaojie's face turned red, and he didn't know what to say.

Seeing her like this, Ban snorted and said, "Have you ever thought about how much you have to marry into the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion to not lose your face?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie panicked and said: "I didn't think about ......"

"Didn't think about it?" Ban asked coldly, "Then what kind of letter do you still write to Ning Shaobi?!" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie didn't know how to answer, tears rolled in his eyes, and he lowered his head and stopped talking.

Ban said lightly: "Do you know, why don't you and your grandfather know about this?" ”

"......" Zhuo Zhaojie pursed his lips, not daring to make a sound.

"Not long after Zhaocui returned to Chang'an, your mother wrote to say that your grandfather saw Zhaocui's painting and your parents' portrait of you, and called your father to instruct ......" Ban's tone was difficult to hide!

Zhuo Zhaojie listened with bated breath.

"Your grandfather has to make his own decisions about your marriage!" Ban Shi glanced at her and said, "It stands to reason that he should call the shots, but you may not know - in fact, if your mother hadn't written a letter to me, even your grandfather and I thought that my grandfather would be the master of the marriage of his grandson's 'daughter', it would be a matter of course, and it would be your honor to marry you as a marquis...... It's just that your mother said that even your eldest sister, the eldest 'daughter' of your Zhuo family's generation, Zhuo Zhao 'Yan', your uncle's only 'daughter', your grandfather's marriage, your grandfather didn't pay attention to her marriage, and it was discussed by your eldest uncle and aunt, and your sister Zhaoqiong came out of the cabinet that year, and your grandfather only added makeup himself...... Why is it your turn that he has to call the shots? ”

Zhuo Zhaojie was stunned, and a cold air suddenly hit his heart!

Ban sighed deeply: "Zhaojie, do you remember how many times your grandmother told you why you should be vigilant and not be coaxed by Xiaolangjun at will?" You are really well born, and you are well born.' Temperament is not bad, how can I not prevent others from beating your idea? Your grandfather saw your portrait and was going to do the main marriage for you - at that time, your mother was just suspicious, and I replied to comfort her, saying that maybe your grandfather was thinking of your own grandmother's affection, and was very fond of you, the granddaughter who looked like his original wife and fostered in a foreign country, but a few days after Ning Shizi returned to Chang'an, your mother sent a letter again, saying--When she entered the palace for a banquet, she met Lu Ji - that is, the biological mother of the three sons of the king of Yanchang County and the East Palace, the prince loves Ji, and the green Ji specially asked her about you, the king of Yanchang has married a concubine, It's the 'daughter' of the Marquis of Dunyuan, according to the relationship between your grandfather and the prince, there is no reason to ask you, the granddaughter, to be the side family of the king of Yanchang County, so what else does Lu Ji mean when she asks you? The third son of Donggongshu...... According to your mother's wishes, she was not a good man, so I consulted with your grandfather and asked for 'sex' to leave the falcon alone......"

Zhuo Zhaojie covered his mouth, and his expression was terrified!

"It's hard to ...... Does my grandfather want me to ......" Zhuo Zhaojie ate and said, "The prince's third son?" Not a good guy?! ”

"Your mother didn't even tell your father about it." Ban looked at her gently, and said softly, "If your grandfather marries you to the third son of the crown prince, then I am afraid that the position of the prince will most likely fall to your father, but your mother really doesn't think that person is a good match, but he is a clan...... So she wrote to me to discuss the method, Ning Shizi is the most beloved young grandson of the eldest princess of Jiyang, the eldest princess of Jiyang is the only sister of Jinshang, and the relationship with Jinshang and the queen is very good, and she is the most courteous person in the clan, even the prince does not dare to be rude in front of her, if Ning Shizi is really willing to fight for you, there is the eldest princess, Hugh said that the third son of the East Palace, that is, the king of Yanchang County has not married and cannot fight for the eldest princess...... In my opinion, Ning Shizi is much better than the third son of Donggong Shu as your mother said! ”

"The problem is that Ning Shizi's father, Marquis Yongcheng, has always been at odds with your grandfather, and if you go against your grandfather's will, and your step-grandmother fanned the flames...... You have four rooms, Hugh said the title, I'm afraid that even the family property, with your step-grandmother, may not be able to get anything! Ban's eyes showed a cold 'color', and said, "So I will never return this 100,000 taels of silver to your grandfather, and even your father I don't want to give it...... Now even Mama Zhou is not here, my grandmother will teach you one last time - your mother is my biological 'daughter', Zhao Zhen, Zhao Qiong, Zhao Cui and you are all descendants, since this money is in my hands, of course, only my blood can be shared! You were raised by me personally, and in my eyes, you are different from Zhaozhen, Zhaoqiong, and Zhaocui! This accumulated relationship is definitely not convincing with the words 'equal treatment'! And your father is not only a few of your sons and daughters, I save for my daughters' children and grandchildren, but I don't have the leisure to feel sorry for a servant and give birth to a child! So tell me, your father and brother are not allowed to tell me any of this money! Sometimes, it's necessary to keep a hand like this, you know?! ”

Ban suddenly drank, Zhuo Zhaojie was a 'excited' spirit, choked back tears, and subconsciously said "yes".

"The 20,000 taels you are given to you at the bottom of the box, in the future, whether you marry Ning Shizi or not, you will always be out of the pavilion in Chang'an...... The 60,000 taels are up to your mother, and she naturally understands how to use them! ”

"The money belongs to your grandfather, but it was given to you by your grandfather and grandmother, and it has nothing to do with your grandfather!" Ban stroked her sideburns and said in a cold tone, "I don't mean to provoke your relationship with your grandfather!" It's just that you are unkind and unjust! Anyway, you haven't gotten along with him, you have so many elders here, what does it matter if you have one more or less hurt? Since he is not close to you, you will follow the rules to him in the future, and you will not be able to work too hard! I am like a jewel and a big child, but I don't want to spoil it for others! ”

Zhuo Zhaojie trembled little by little in her arms, and finally cried loudly: "Why is this happening?!" ”

Separated from her parents and relatives in her infancy, she was sent to Youjia before she could remember, the Jiangnan with warm mountains and soft waters, the Jiangnan with apricot 'flowers' and smoke and rain, this Jiangnan that countless people have praised throughout the ages is not her hometown, and the Chang'an, which is thousands of miles away, is where she was born, fourteen years of parting, fourteen years of anticipation, fourteen years of imagination and hope - the words added to the ceremony have seen the strange coldness under the identity of Minpinghou's grandfather, and now Ban's unveiled the secret of a year of falcon transmission that was not stopped, that Hou Mansion, now that I think about it, it is so deep, so cold......

"What are you crying about!" Ban didn't comfort her like before, but shouted coldly, "Crying, is it useful?!" ”

Seeing Zhuo Zhaojie stop crying at a loss, looking at himself timidly, Ban's heart ached, but his face was still calm, leaned over and raised her chin, stared into the eyes of her granddaughter, and said word by word: "I am usual, how did I teach you?" In the past 14 years of teaching, if it comes to the end, you will still only cry a word?! ”

"I ......" Zhuo Zhaojie subconsciously wanted to cry again, but she felt that Ban's subordinates were so hard that her jaw hurt, she was shocked, stunned for a moment, forcibly endured her tears, and said in a low voice, "Grandmother!" ”

Ban let go of his hand and calmly analyzed for her: "You just returned to Chang'an, your mother is reluctant to let you leave the cabinet immediately, and wants to stay for another two years, this is normal, even your grandfather can't ask you to marry as soon as you arrive in Chang'an, so everyone has to say that your grandfather is not sympathetic to the younger generation!" Since it's not an immediate exit, anything is possible! You have a father, a mother, a brother and a sister, although your grandfather said that he is of high seniority, he wants to do whatever he wants, hey! That may not be possible! ”

Seeing Zhuo Zhaojie's imperceptible relief, Ban 'touched' her head, put the silver ticket for her, and said warmly: "Look, I usually praise you for being smart, and you also think you are smart, but now when you encounter something, doesn't it show that the little lady's family can't help it?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie was ashamed and dazed, and choked up: "Don't I still trust my grandmother?" What can I do to worry about my grandmother? ”

"Since you know that you don't have to 'bother' about your grandmother here, you should be obedient." Ban said, "Give you money, take it, tell you how to tell your mother, you can say it, tell you to keep it secret, you will be silent!" You know what? ”

Seeing her dejected appearance, Ban sighed softly, stroked her sideburns and said softly, "Good boy, don't be frightened by such a thing, everything is still undecided now, although your grandfather is an elder, but your father and mother may not be able to protect you, not to mention - your grandfather's relationship with the time is not good, it is difficult for you to grow up with us, and you can still suffer losses in life's events?" ”

He also said, "Your grandfather has his own arrangements, this time when you return to Chang'an, he has a handwritten letter to Shi Xiang, at your starling brother's place, you can rest assured, Shi Xiang, will pay attention to your grandfather!" If there is anything wrong, Chang'an to Moling, the waterway will only take a few days? Could it be that your parents can't delay it for a few days, so that your grandfather can rush to marry you off? ”

Where does Zhuo Zhaojie still have the heart to push the 80,000 taels of silver tickets with her? She was full of "My grandfather wanted to marry me to the third son of Donggong who made my mother like a great enemy in order to please Lu Ji and the king of Yanchang County", "What should I do with Jiulang" - I don't know what kind of bad person he is, as a clan, he actually makes You Ji so unwilling! Such a personal grandfather turned out to be ...... Not to mention Ning Jiu and himself......

No matter how you think about it, it comes from sadness - can the marquis of Chang'an treat himself as a granddaughter? What's more, she grew up with brocade clothes and 'jade' food, although she was not so high as to regard money as dung, but the 80,000 taels of silver tickets were just an unexpectedly large amount in her eyes - as for how small it was, she didn't have any idea, and she just instinctively felt that she shouldn't take the money before......

Just took the silver ticket in such a mess and wiped his tears back to Binwei Courtyard.
