Drunk House

  Chapter 64 Rules

   "But Princess Sheng'an and the Duke's wife are people who respect rules, right?" Xie Yuan changed his voice, "There is a difference between raising a son and marrying a daughter-in-law. The wives of the high-end courtyard have high demands on their daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law."

  Zhou Gu carefully chose his words, "My grandfather has the final say in the residence of the Protector of the Country. Although my grandmother and my mother have strict rules, they are only for the eldest son and grandson. I am the youngest of the four in the family. They are more lenient to me."

  The implication is that it is inevitable to have high requirements for the eldest daughter-in-law, but it will be more lenient for my daughter-in-law.

  Xie Yuan smiled and nodded, "This sounds very reasonable."

  He changed his voice, and smiled again: "I don't know what Xiaoqi's mother thought back then, she decided on her own, and arranged the marriage in the Duke Huguo's mansion. Old Su has no objection. As Xiaoqi's teacher, after knowing it, I don't quite agree. If two people with different identities and different growth environments are married, it will be difficult to be harmonious. But since the matter has already happened, we can only let it go."

  Zhou Gu didn't understand what he meant, and waited for Xie Yuan to continue.

   Xie Yuan smiled again, "Now it's not just about whether the Duke of the Protector's Mansion keeps its promises, but Xiao Qi has grown up, his temper has developed, and he has his own ideas. Just like yesterday, she forced you to go to the third floor to listen to music and drink. She used to do such outrageous things. If she dared to drag you around that kind of place yesterday, she would dare to drag you to do even more outrageous things tomorrow. I don't know how you feel, but tell me, the Duke's Mansion must not like it Same. So, your marriage is still to be discussed. "

   Zhou Gu was speechless.

   "If she breaks the contract here, the Duke Protector's House shouldn't force it, right?" Xie Yuan asked again.

  Zhou Gu didn't know how to answer this for a while, thinking that Su Rong might not have been testing him yesterday, or in other words, Su Rong was testing him when he came to Jiangning County, not only Su Rong, but also Su Taishou, Da Furen, Su Xingze who rushed back early for Su Rong, and Xie Yuan who came back a few days earlier, were all testing him.

  He realized with exhaustion that Su Rong really held a very important position in the hearts of these people. What he had thought earlier was a little concubine who struggled to survive under the mistress's hand in the backyard of Jiangning County's prefect's mansion. At least, he learned from the days when he lived in the prefect's mansion that no one dared to provoke her.

  Even he, the youngest descendant of Duke Huguo's Mansion, is said to be favored by everyone, but he doesn't have Su Rong's status in Duke Huguo's Mansion. At least, his grandfather could beat him as much as he wanted, and he couldn't complain at all.

  Zhou Gu had no choice but to say, "Of course I won't force it."

   Xie Yuan smiled sincerely at Zhou Gu, "Well, that's good!"

   Zhou Gu saw that his smile was different from just now, and immediately regretted what he just said. His heart tightened, and he quickly added, "Although my grandfather has never met Su Rong, he is very kind to her. Grandpa never pushes others."

   Xie Yuan understood, "Then Princess Sheng'an and Mrs. Guo will not have any objections."

  Zhou Gu wants to say that they don't have to force them, but what about me? He... If it was before, he would naturally wish for it, but now, he finds that if Su Rong wants to marry him, he probably won't be happy.

  He clearly knew that this was a trap and a temptation, but he couldn't help but said, "Su Rong and I get along very well, sir, I'm afraid you are worrying too much."

  At this time, Zhou Gu really realized how powerful Xie Yuan was. Xie Yuan, who was admired by Qin Taifu, was indeed not an ordinary person. A few words were much sharper than Su Xingze's subtle temptation to him, which made him almost overwhelmed.

  As soon as he said this, he saw Xie Yuan and asked directly: "Oh? Young Master Zhou means that if your family doesn't force it, maybe you will?"

  Zhou Gu bit the bullet and said: "Mr. said that the word "forced" was too cold and rigid. We get along very well now, and we haven't felt that there is any big problem. Maybe it won't make her unhappy."

  He didn't dare to say that there was nothing wrong with it, after all, he was really annoyed when Su Rong took him to Fengyue Tower yesterday.

   Xie Yuan smiled and said: "Since you said so, then we are not in a hurry to draw conclusions. Anyway, it is still early, everything is difficult to say, and we will have a conclusion in the future."

  Zhou Gu nodded, and he didn't want to discuss his marriage contract with Su Rong with Xie Yuan any more. He wished that he could test the ink in his belly like Su Xingze, which would be better than setting him on fire over and over again.

   "You haven't had lunch yet, have you? I know Xing Ze will bring you here today, and someone has prepared lunch, so let's eat first." Xie Yuan stood up, and seemed to have become a kind elder again.

  Zhou Gu nodded, feeling relieved, he had never loved eating so much for a moment.

  Su Xing gave Zhou Gu a funny look, and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.

  Zhou Gu was immediately flattered. You must know that although Su Xingze has never been cold-hearted towards him, but after spending time with him these days, he can clearly feel Su Xingze's politeness and alienation. It is simply impossible to buy someone like him and make friends with him.

  Seeing Zhou Gu's frightened expression, Su Xing paused, then naturally withdrew his hand, and smiled at him: "Seventh Sister is a very independent girl, and she always knows what she wants, so, sir, she is right."

  Zhou Gu: "..."

  He has been with Su Rong for so long, and he can feel that she has big ideas. He couldn't help doubting himself, let alone that Su Rong was dissatisfied with him, if one day he didn't want to keep the contract, would he force it?

  He suddenly suffocated.

  Su Rong first followed Mammy to learn the theory and rules, women's precepts and female training, these things she despised before, now she sits here obediently, listening to Mammy's reading one by one, during the break, Yue Wan came in with a big watermelon, Su Rong's eyes lit up, "Where did you get the watermelon?"

   "Mr. Xie brought it back." Yue Wan put the watermelon on the table, "Miss, should I cut it into a plate? Or eat it with a spoon like before?"

   "Of course I eat with a spoon." Su Rong didn't hesitate.

  Yue Wan looked at the teaching mother.

  The teaching mother, surnamed Zhao, has a very good temper, and she doesn’t always have a harsh and stern face. Seeing Yue Wan’s view, she smiled and said: “Rules are a kind of rules for all beings. Some people are willing to be bound by them, and some are not.

  Yue Wan opened her eyes wide, "Mother Zhao, you are so kind!"
