After a brief silence, Chi Zhao made another voice, "Why?"
"There's no reason, it's an order, and you're going to follow it."
Morris looked at the nine-square grid in the upper right corner of the light screen. The data in these grids are real-time data of Shao Ze'an's body. Through these data, he can judge Shao Ze'an's physical condition and mental condition. Several of the standards have not been moved very much, and it seems that there are still flaws.
Morris noted that he would have to improve the sensor on his upper arm in a while, and then he repeated impatiently, "Do you remember what I asked you to do?"
"remember."
Morris smiled, "Very well, I'll give you seven days. In seven days, I'll see the news of your upcoming marriage on the star network. Within a month, you will move to West's mansion, young master, you are so Smart, you won't let me down, will you?"
Chi Zhao rolled his eyes, "Yeah."
After that, Maurice's voice disappeared. Chi Zhao was sitting on the bed, thinking about how to tell his family that he wanted to marry Louis. Suddenly, the door opened and Mrs. Shao walked in with a plate in her hand. Fresh fruits.
"My dear son, eat some fruit before going to sleep."
Chi Zhao lifted the quilt and was about to come down, but Mrs. Shao quickly stopped him, "Sit down, mom will send it to you."
Chi Zhao had to sit back on the bed again. There was a row of decorative black rings on the bedside table. Mrs. Shao pressed one of the rings, and the originally smooth and neat bedside table immediately retracted into a stable and sturdy table above the bed. The fruit plate was placed on the table. Chi Zhao took a small fork and put a piece into his mouth. Mrs. Shao looked at him lovingly. After a long time, she sighed, "It's all my fault, I didn't give you a strong body. , if only you and your brother could reconcile..."
Every parent wants their children to be just as good, but that's impossible. Chi Zhao swallowed what was in his mouth and blinked, "There are advantages to being strong, and there are advantages to being weak as well. Those who are able work harder, and I don't have that many abilities, so I can grow up carefree until now. I am a person without ambition, this kind of life is just right for me, Mom, you are not wrong, you don't need to blame yourself."
Mrs. Shao was stunned, and then burst into tears, "Baby, you have grown up."
After being immersed in emotion for less than two seconds, Mrs. Shao thought of the reason for her young son to grow up so quickly, her graceful and delicate face could not help but get a touch of anger, "It's all those rebels, I will sign a letter tomorrow. An agreement to donate 10% of this year's profits to the military as military expenses, I don't believe it, I can't cure them! And West, I won't let him go, so many people On the starship, why are you the only one left behind, he must give me an explanation for this matter!"
Mrs. Shao is a person who helps her relatives but does not help. She is called Hu Duzi if it sounds good, but she is not much better than a shrew if it sounds bad. The original owner can become such a character, and this Mrs. Shao is also a great contribution. Although she didn't intend to cultivate Shao Ze'an to be like that, it was the "mother" Mrs. Shao who doted on him and made him completely unaware of thinking about others from the perspective of others.
What is right or wrong, Chi Zhao has no position to comment, he paused, put down his fork, and said to Mrs. Shao: "Mom, this is none of Admiral West's business. He really did his best to save us, but I was unlucky, I didn't get out early, and almost, Admiral West sacrificed to save us. Originally, the root cause of this incident was that we were wrong. If we didn't insist on going to the Death Galaxy, we would not have been killed. Rebels caught."
Mrs. Shao showed a surprised expression. The younger son has changed too much. How could he still say good things for others
Mrs. Shao always felt that something was not right. Chi Zhao gave her enough time to react before continuing, "Mom."
"Huh?" Mrs. Shao turned her attention back.
"I want to marry him."
Mrs. Shao's eyes were dull for a second, and the two looked at each other for a while. She thought she heard it wrong, "Marry... who?"
Chi Zhao opened his mouth, pressed his tongue against his upper jaw, and read out the name that made countless single boys and girls in the empire dream of, "Louis West."
After the initial shock passed, Mrs. Shao stared at him and confirmed it several times before walking out with a complicated expression. Chi Zhao ate the fruit silently, then lay down and squinted for a while, and when he woke up again, he found that he had been interrogated by three courts.
Chi Zhao with a chicken coop head: "… "
Chi Zhao expected that Mrs. Shao would call the original owner's father, but he didn't expect that not only his father, but also his grandfather would be invited. The eldest brother had already returned to the military headquarters, so he didn't catch up with this situation.
Shao Ze'an's grandfather is 100 years old this year. He has sparse white hair on his head. The ravine between his brows is very deep. At first glance, he doesn't like to smile. He asked Chi Zhao if he really liked that kid from the West family, Chi Zhao nodded silently.
"But you haven't gotten along with him deeply. You don't even know what kind of person he is." These are the words of the original owner's father. Taking off the judge's burqa, he is an ordinary father who will also serve his two sons. life-long headache.
Chi Zhao looked at him seriously, "I know what kind of person he is. Although I haven't been with him for a long time, I just know him."
It's over, it's deeply rooted.
The judge had nothing to say. Grandpa looked at him silently for a while, then turned to his son and daughter-in-law and said, "You go out, I'll have a chat with Xiao An."
Mrs. Shao was a little worried, "Dad, Xiao An he..."
"Don't worry, I'm measured," Grandpa interrupted her, "you go out first."
They had to go out obediently, Chi Zhao and grandpa were left in the room, and Chi Zhao couldn't help but get nervous. He's thinking about a bunch of lingering, earth-moving declarations of love for the next scene, but the first question Grandpa asks him has nothing to do with Louie.
"The child of Morris, how is he now."
Chi Zhao was stunned for a moment, then said the truth: "It looks okay, he seems to have a very high status on the rebel side."
The air fell silent, and after a long time, Grandpa asked again, "Did he torture you?"
Although his daughter-in-law has been talking about how miserable Shao Ze'an is and how excessive the rebels and Morris are, her daughter-in-law has always been exaggerating. He still wants to hear what his grandson has to say and see what that guy Morris has become.
Chi Zhao didn't know how to answer for a while. Morris was listening to them almost all the time. Even if he didn't listen, he would definitely hand it over to his subordinates to monitor. If he said something Morris didn't like, he would wait until no one was there. If you are about to get an electric shock, the pain can be shielded, but the paralysis cannot be shielded, and the feeling of numbness in the whole body is also very uncomfortable.
He was silent for too long, and the silence didn't seem like he couldn't speak, but he didn't know what to say. Grandpa frowned, "Xiao An, what are you thinking?"
"Tell him, yes, I'm just torturing you."
Morris' voice suddenly appeared, his voice sounded very calm, and it seemed a little different from usual, Chi Zhao paused, "Well, he tortured me."
Grandpa stared at Chi Zhao's eyes, his eyes were a bit scary, not that grandpa deliberately wanted to be so scary, but his face was just like that. After three seconds, he let out a long sigh, walked to Chi Zhao's side, and patted Chi Zhao's shoulder unfamiliarly, "It's good to be back... It's good to be back."
This sounded strange, Chi Zhao raised his head, "Grandpa, do you think I won't be able to come back?"
"After treason, the first thing Morris did was to kill his fellow apprentice. At that time, you were still young, and no one should have told you about it. Morris's teacher accepted their two apprentices, each of them They are all top geniuses, but I didn't expect... He has a good relationship with his senior brother, and he can kill senior brothers who get along with him day and night, not to mention you who don't want to do it with him."
Morris listened to Grandpa Shao Ze'an's words, his expression was calm, there were two subordinates around, none of them saw Morris's abnormality, only Morris himself knew that his hand, which was naturally hanging by his side, was already tightly clenched. To the point where you can dig your fingernails into the flesh.
Chi Zhao was not very surprised when he heard it, "Grandpa, he has already betrayed the country. People who can betray the country can do everything."
Grandpa's expression was a little complicated. He seemed to want to say something, but after hesitating for a while, he closed his mouth again. After rubbing Chi Zhao's shoulder twice, he spoke again, "Grandpa doesn't care about your juniors, nor can he. If you really like that kid, Grandpa can help you fight for it. However, this kind of It's no use telling your family about it, you should still go to that kid West and see what he means."
Come on, if Chi Zhao went by himself, it is estimated that he would be kicked out without even entering the gate of West's house. If you want to complete the task on time, you can only use the power of the family to exert pressure.
Although he thought so, Chi Zhao nodded obediently, "Got it, Grandpa."
Morris gave Chi Zhao seven days, and Chi Zhao was going to finish his family’s work first, and then go to Louis to talk about it. When he didn't agree, he would cut it first and then file it, first put the news of the engagement on the star network, and then pressed Louis on the head and forced him to marry him. With Louis' temper, he will definitely be angry, but he is a principled person, and he will not do anything to him. At most, he will ignore him and let him live as a widow after marriage.
It just so happened that Chi Zhao didn't want to have physical contact with him either, which would kill two birds with one stone.
Chi Zhao's abacus was beating loudly in his heart, but he didn't expect that Louis would come to Shao's house early the next morning.
Without what Chi Zhao said yesterday, Mrs. Shao would definitely be embarrassed for Louis, but now she knows that her son has a deep-rooted love for this general, and no matter how you look at it, her son is not worthy of him, Mrs. Shao No matter how thick the filter in your eyes is, you have to face reality now.
The justice went to work, and Shao Zelin couldn't come back for a few days a year. Yesterday, my brother had an accident, so I took a day off temporarily. It is estimated that I will not go home for a few months. There are only Mrs. Shao, Shao Ze'an, and Grandpa Shao who basically does not go out. Mrs. Shao sincerely apologized to Louis. , her mood became more and more complicated, and she smiled a little stiffly, "Don't say that, in the end, it's our family's Xiao An's fault, if he hadn't skipped school, he wouldn't have encountered these things, and I can save him, thank you. You're still too late."
Louis was accompanied by the adjutant. They were wearing military uniforms, which made them look more formal. After listening to Mrs. Shao's words, the adjutant raised his eyebrows in surprise.
What's the matter, the cub-guarding madman has changed
…
Louis and Mrs. Shao, you came and went politely. Suddenly, a thin figure came out from the corridor in the distance. Louis looked over, and paused what he was talking about. Mrs. Shao followed and looked over there. The youngest son sipped silently. He looked a little timid, but his timidity didn't look like seeing his sweetheart, but like seeing the teacher who was about to announce the final grades.
Mrs. Shao frowned invisibly, she turned her head again, and glanced at Louis. He looked at his son intently, and when he saw him coming out, he raised the corner of his lips slightly. This smile was different from when he was facing her just now. It was a 100% heartfelt smile. Admiral West's external image is unsmiling, dignified and cold, which can make him show such obvious mood swings, which shows how much the younger son's influence on his mood.
?
Mrs. Shao was confused, this... Who is deeply rooted in love for whom
