Boss Zhou scratched his head and said, "I don't know either. Mom wasn't very happy when she came back."
Li thought it was his fault and quickly went back to his room and hid.
Zhou Laoer asked carefully but still got no answer and was a little confused. However, he had to tell his mother about Rongchuan's matter, so he could only bite the bullet and knock on the door, "Mom, I have something to tell you."
Zhulan sat up slowly and said, "Come in!"
Zhou Laoer was relieved to see that his mother looked much better. "Today, mother was not at home. Rongchuan's mother, Zhu, came secretly. I don't know what she said to make Rongchuan drive her away. Not only did she curse when she left, but she also accused our family of stealing someone else's son to be a child husband. The village completely believed the rumors that they didn't believe in the past. This concerns my sister's reputation. I want mother to make the decision."
He knew that his parents had this intention, and because the rumor was not made public, he didn't worry about it. Anyway, his parents knew it. But now it was different. Zhu was yelling at the door, and his family had to give an explanation, otherwise it would not be good for his sister.
Zhulan thought that the plot had gone astray and Wang Ru's family had no place to live, and thought that Wang Ru had no time to go to the county, but she still met the little villain, which means that she will still meet Xue Han's official match and will still snatch the male lead away. She was even more glad that she found a child husband for her daughter.
Originally, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren had planned to wait until they came back from Jiangnan to finalize the matter. Now Zhou Shuren is not here. "I know what's going on. Your father will be in Jiangnan soon and will be back in a few days. Your father and I have agreed to finalize the matter before the New Year. If anyone asks you about it, you should tell them to pick a good day and don't say anything extra."
Zhou Laoer was relieved. As long as it was settled, it didn't matter if it was early or late, and he didn't have to worry about affecting his sister's reputation. "Mom, take a rest first. I'm going to go out to work first."
"Go ahead!"
Zhulan waited for her second son to go out and then lay back on the warm kang. Even though she and Zhou Shuren had grown up with modern education and had freedom in marriage, they had never thought of teaching their daughter to find her own husband.
In ancient times, a woman's reputation was more important than her life. The husband she found would be looked down upon by her in-laws, and her husband would not respect her much in his heart. It was never a good deal. In ancient times, marriage was based on the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. The three books and six rituals were indispensable. Only then could the marriage be concluded between two families, and only then would the husband respect her from the bottom of his heart.
In ancient times, marriages were all blind and silent. The only thing Zhulan and Zhou Shuren could do was to find a childhood sweetheart for their daughter to grow up with. Now that they had developed feelings for each other, Zhou Shuren wanted to accept Rongchuan as his last disciple. In addition, a master is like a husband, and Rongchuan has no family to rely on, so they were not afraid that Rongchuan would be mean to Xue Han.
If Rongchuan really meets true love in a dramatic way, he would not lose his mind if he has a little bit of brains. The teacher is like a father to the emperor and his subjects. Moreover, the teacher saved his life when he was a child. Rongchuan would not dare to betray his teacher and ruin his future. If he really becomes love-brained, he will have no future anyway, and Zhou Shuren will just beat Rongchuan to death.
Zhulan and Zhou Shuren discussed everything that could happen, and Rongchuan was decided as the son-in-law.
As for getting the official match for their daughter, sorry, the couple really doesn't want the male lead and has two concerns. First, even if Zhou Shuren is absolutely confident that he can climb up to the top, it will take years. They are not a good match and their daughter will definitely suffer. If they can't help their daughter vent her anger, the couple will be so angry that they will die!
Second, he doesn't want to be involved with Wang Ru. The fact that the male protagonist can exchange Wang Ru for his true love shows how worthless true love is in the male protagonist's heart. Zhulan and her husband look down on the male protagonist from the bottom of their hearts.
Zhulan fell asleep while thinking. After lunch, she found Rongchuan was very nervous. Zhulan left Rongchuan alone after lunch and told him the truth, "Don't be nervous. I have discussed it with your uncle. It will be settled when your uncle comes back. Don't worry too much about the rumors outside."
Rong Chuan was stunned by the surprise. He was worried that his mother would ruin the idea. He didn't expect that his aunt and uncle had already made up their minds. Even though he was mature, he was quick to express his opinion in the face of the surprise. "Don't worry, aunt and uncle. I am definitely not an ungrateful person. If I do anything bad to Xue Han in the future, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."
Zhulan doesn't believe in oaths. If oaths are true, there will be thunder and lightning every day. She only believes in herself. The more she gets to know Rongchuan, the better she knows this child is. He has a strong will after the hardships he experienced in his childhood. In the future, he will surely soar to the sky if he has the chance with his intelligence. The more she sees him, the more satisfied she is. He is a rare good son-in-law. "Okay, okay, I believe you."
After saying a few more words, Zhulan went back to her room to rest.
Rongchuan curled the corners of his mouth, all the depression in his heart disappeared, and he was no longer angry with his mother. He happily went back to the room to copy the big characters.
