While Yu Zhi was drinking wine and eating roasted leg of lamb at the prince's mansion, Wen Jiuxiao was copying hard in the Northeast Camp, and finally finished copying the cut paper to find Yu Zhi, but she was nowhere to be seen. Yu Guangxian was the only one sitting in the room.
"I have met my father-in-law." Wen Jiuxiao saluted respectfully.
Yu Guangxian, who was smiling and pouring himself a drink, the smile on his face faded, "It's not a relationship, it's not a reason, Mr. Xiaowen, don't shout."
Wen Jiuxiao still insisted on completing the ceremony, stood aside, and said: "As long as the father-in-law nods, the son-in-law will invite someone to come to propose marriage tomorrow."
As for who to invite, he has already thought about it. Isn't the fifth prince a ready-made good candidate? In the entire Northeast, there is no one more valuable than his identity.
"What if the old man doesn't nod?" Yu Guangxian poured himself another glass of wine, held it in his hand, and didn't drink it.
Wen Jiuxiao was silent, "My son-in-law is sincere to Zhizhi, please let my father-in-law do it."
"What if the old man is not perfect?" Yu Guangxian looked at Wen Jiuxiao, no matter how he looked at him, he didn't like it. This stinky brat is cold even when begging for help, and he won't say a word of softening. Still no wink, didn't you see that he was drinking? If you want to marry his daughter, you should pour wine!
"Also, is Zhizhi your name? Xiaowen, you should know how harsh this world is on women, so don't ruin her reputation."
Wen Jiuxiao was silent again. He had dealt with murderers and suspects a lot, so he really didn't know how to deal with the old man. As for pleasing the old man, he felt that he might not be good enough.
"I hope my father-in-law will be fulfilled, my son-in-law will definitely treat Zhizhi and Zhouzhou well in the future." Wen Jiuxiao said sincerely, and gave another salute.
Yu Guangxian gave him a sideways glance, and this time he used the word "begging", showing progress. However, who wouldn't say nice things? The key is whether it can be done. Yu Guangxian believes that what he said at the moment is true, and his feelings for Zhizhi are also true, but the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion is too complicated.
The eldest son is weak and has only one daughter under his knees. If he never has a son, there will be disputes over the inheritance of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion. Marquis Wu'an favored his concubine again. Although Wen Jiuxiao, the second son of the direct line, was young and promising, Yu Guangxian still didn't want his daughter to be involved in the quagmire of the big family.
His Zhizhi is smart, but she is too open-minded, and her life was simple in the past, where has she seen the methods of a woman in the backyard of a wealthy family? Everyone looked weak, but their hearts were more ruthless than anyone else. It's not that he underestimated his daughter, Zhizhi is really not their opponent.
Zhizhi... Yu Guangxian suddenly sighed when he thought of his daughter who hadn't had a good life for a few days since she was a child.
If we only talk about people, are Master Xiaowen and Zhi Zhiduo a good couple? The two also gave birth to Zhou Zhou, what a happy life for a family of three?
But Mr. Xiaowen was born noble and has two parents. How did Zhizhi live outside in the first place? Isn't it just that the family is not in the right family? Does the Hou Mansion despise Zhi Zhi's humble background?
"You begged the old man to be fulfilled, have you ever thought about your family? No matter what the difficulties are, in the eyes of outsiders, Zhizhi is a child born out of wedlock. She calls herself a widow to protect Zhouzhou.
"Zhizhi is the old man's daughter, and the old man doesn't dislike her. But what about your family? Can your parents allow such Zhizhi to enter the house? If this matter is found out after getting married, it will be a stain on you by your political opponents. You Can you protect Zhizhi mother and son? Will you regret it?"
"Yes! I can!" Wen Jiuxiao replied without hesitation, "Zhizhi is my son-in-law's wife, she is not my stain. As for my son-in-law's parents, they can decide their own marriage, and they will agree. "
"Young man, think carefully before speaking, don't be so impulsive." Yu Guangxian smiled, but didn't take his words seriously.
Then I heard Jiu Xiao said again: "Zhi Zhi is not born out of wedlock, Zhou Zhou is born out of wedlock, he is the eldest son of my son-in-law."
"Oh?" Yu Guangxian was surprised now, "What do you mean?"
Wen Jiuxiao glanced at him, turned around and shouted, "Qingfeng."
Qingfeng, who had been waiting outside for a long time, came in immediately, "Third Master, what you want." He respectfully presented the brocade box he was holding in his hand, and respectfully asked Yu Guangxian for his peace before leaving.
Yu Guangxian stared at the brocade box in Wen Jiuxiao's hand, and saw that he opened the brocade box, took out something from it and handed it to him, "Father-in-law, please have a look."
Yu Guangxian took it suspiciously, unfolded it, and couldn't help exclaiming, "Marriage letter?! You and Zhizhi...fake?"
Yu Guangxian's first reaction was that the marriage certificate was fabricated by Wen Jiuxiao, otherwise how could he explain it?
"Really! There is a seal of the government. My father-in-law should look carefully. If you don't believe me, you can go to Jingzhao Mansion to check."
Yu Guangxian looked closely, and the marriage certificate was indeed stamped with the seal of the Jingzhao government office, and it was exactly five years ago.
"So, you and Zhizhi were husband and wife five years ago? So..." So he is his serious daughter-in-law?
Yu Guangxian still doesn't believe it, Zhizhi won't lie to him, but the marriage certificate is true, Yu Guangxian thinks of another possibility, "Zhizhi... Does Zhizhi know about the marriage certificate?"
Wen Jiuxiao shook his head, "She doesn't know, my son-in-law hasn't found a suitable opportunity to tell her."
Wen Jiuxiao looked calm, but Yu Guangxian looked at him with complicated emotions. Five years ago... That is to say, after Zhizhi fell off the cliff, and everyone thought that Zhizhi was dead, he married Zhizhi!
If Zhizhi wasn't his daughter, Yu Guangxian would have to say that Wen Jiuxiao was an idiot! But this young man was stupid because of his daughter, Yu Guangxian couldn't say a word.
He looked at Wen Jiuxiao who was kneeling on the ground begging for his fulfillment, what could he do? "You get up first, the old man thinks about it." He had to ask Zhi Zhi what he meant, he was also afraid that his daughter would miss her lover.
Wen Jiuxiao's face flashed with joy, and he was relieved. Although I didn't agree directly, it's good to be willing to consider it. Didn't Zhizhi also say to think about it before? Didn't you agree later?
When Yu Guangxian saw the happy expression on Wen Jiuxiao's face, he suddenly felt very annoying. If Zhizhi really married this brat, wouldn't his eldest grandson be gone? Inheritance of incense from Lao Yu's family...
Yu Guangxian felt uncomfortable in his heart, and whenever he was unhappy, he dragged Wen Jiuxiao to drink.
Do you dare not drink the wine my father-in-law asked me to drink? Even though Wen Jiuxiao's drinking capacity is not bad, he was drunk in the end.
Wen Jiuxiao, who was drunk, didn't act like a drunk, so he pulled Yu Guangxian's sleeve and kept yelling, "Zhizhi, Zhizhi!"
Yu Guangxian's face turned dark, and Qingfeng took a lot of effort to break away his third master's hand, and he didn't even dare to look at Yu Guangxian's face.
Hey, my third master! You have offended my father-in-law badly, I hope you won't regret it when you wake up tomorrow.
