"What you said makes sense. If that's the case, then this test ends here. Tomorrow you will have people choose a good day to put Yaoniang and Xu Tianyi's marriage on the agenda."
Hearing Mrs. Zhou say this, people around her naturally only praised Mrs. Zhou for her wisdom.
The reason why Mrs. Zhou compromised and made this decision was actually because the verdict against her husband had basically come down, and her husband would eventually be exiled to Guanyuan Town in Yunzhou.
Although their final result was that their husbands were temporarily spared their lives, and their family members did not have to be exiled.
However, Yunzhou is a bitter and cold place, and Guanyuan Town is also suffering from the disaster of weapons.
I don't know if his husband will survive after leaving.
What's more important is that now that her husband's family has heard that his husband is in trouble, they are also on their way to the capital.
But don’t think these people have any good intentions.
She thought and knew that these people must have come with the idea of embezzling her husband's wealth.
After all, in their concept, if the husband has no sons, then their family property should be inherited by the uncle.
So at this moment, Mrs. Zhou only realized that she couldn't do it without a man.
Even if Yaoniang is married off, those people will inevitably come to rob the family property.
But at least before they arrive, he can use the Zhou family's property as Yaoniang's dowry and arrange for it to be paid out first. After that, no matter how much trouble they make, they won't be able to get much.
It was also because of this preparation that Mrs. Zhou could relax so happily.
After Mrs. Zhou let go, Zi Juan, who was on the side, only looked at Fang Yue'er who was suppressed underneath.
Zi Juan asked, "Madam, what should I do with this little bitch Fang Yue'er?" Zi Juan asked.
After hearing this, Ms. Zhou lowered her head and looked at Fang Yue'er who was kneeling at her feet. At this time, Fang Yue'er had been tied up. In order to prevent her from yelling, they tied up Fang Yue'er to see her. When Zhou came to see him, he had already blocked Fang Yue'er's mouth.
Fang Yue'er could only express her protest in sobs, but unfortunately no one could hear clearly what she said, and no one wanted to know what she said.
And Mrs. Zhou seemed to think that Fang Yue'er was annoying enough.
After that, she only said to Zijuan, "Since this little bitch is so wild, then we should help her. Go to those secret prostitutes and ask people to see if they want this little slut!"
Upon hearing Madam's words, Zijuan immediately said, "Madam is wise."
But Mrs. Zhou said coldly, "Don't tell Yaoniang and the others about this, lest Yaoniang get in the way."
Zijuan immediately responded with a yes, and then she raised her voice and said to the maids and servants standing here in the hall, "Did you hear what Madam said?"
Everyone in the hall was a descendant of the Zhou family. After hearing Zijuan's words, they all naturally responded in unison.
Then, in Fang Yue'er's desperate and frightened eyes, Mrs. Zhou only told them to drag Fang Yue'er down and temporarily lock her in the woodshed. After doing this, Mrs. Zhou fell asleep peacefully again.
After that, I had a dreamless night.
After Mrs. Zhou woke up, she naturally asked a woman to secretly contact the seller for Fang Yue'er.
On the other hand, Zhou Yaoniang, who knew nothing about all this, just went to have breakfast with her mother early.
But she didn't expect that when she came to the dining room today, her mother had already arrived, and this time it was not just her mother, but Xu Tianyi was the only one sitting next to her mother.
This was somewhat surprising to Zhou Yaoniang. After all, they had always eaten together as a family before.
Although Xu Tianyi has been in their house for so long, he is rarely invited to the table, especially for breakfast, he is almost never invited. He always eats alone, and the bell in his room takes the meal.
But Xu Tianyi made an unprecedented breakthrough today.
For a moment, Zhou Yaoniang couldn't help but wonder if this was a sign that her mother had regarded Xu Tianyi as a family member.
However, thinking about how her mother never wanted to see Xu Tianyi, she felt that maybe she was overthinking it.
She knelt down and saluted her mother.
And just when Zhou Yaoniang was thinking wildly, Zijuan immediately grabbed Zhou Yaoniang and said, "Girl, please sit over here."
Only then did Zhou Yaoniang come back to her senses. She found that the seat where Zijuan pulled her to sit was actually next to Xu Tianyi.
She was a little confused for a moment.
However, before she sat down, she still glanced at her mother, and saw that her mother seemed to have no objection to her. Then Zhou Yaoniang carefully sat down next to Xu Tianyi.
Xu Tian seemed a little surprised to see Zhou Yaoniang sitting next to him.
The two of them just smiled at each other.
But Zhou didn't say anything.
She was able to keep her composure, and after her daughter saluted her, she had no intention of announcing the good news.
She just said silently, "Pass the breakfast on."
As her words fell, Zijuan immediately clapped her hands toward the door.
The people outside the door naturally understood what this code meant, so they immediately said to the people around them, "Hurry up and pass the breakfast."
As soon as the words fell, the breakfast was brought up like running water. The breakfast on this large table made Zhou Yaoniang couldn't help but feel that it was a waste.
It's just that my mother has a rule, and she doesn't talk when she eats or sleeps.
So although she felt it was a waste in her heart, she didn't dare to say it while eating.
There was silence after that until she finished her meal and rinsed her mouth, then she was about to speak. However, just when she was about to speak, Mrs. Zhou suddenly motioned her not to speak.
Then Zhou said in a deep voice, "I called you all here today because I have something big to announce."
"I am planning to marry my daughter Yaoniang to Xu Tianyi. I have also observed during these days that Tianyi is a loyal child. So I am also planning to entrust my daughter to Xu Tianyi."
After finishing her words, Mrs. Zhou only looked at Xu Tianyi and said, "God willing, are you willing to marry my daughter?"
Xu Tianyi came to propose marriage, but now Mrs. Zhou finally relented, so there was nothing he could not do.
He just whispered immediately, "God wills it, God wills it a thousand times."
The happiness that filled his face at this moment was impossible to hide even if he wanted to.
Mrs. Zhou nodded happily and said, "As long as you are willing, I'm afraid you won't be willing."
Then Mrs. Zhou looked at Zhou Yaoniang and said, "Yao Niang, what about you? Are you willing?"
Although Zhou Yaoniang was a little resistant to the unexpected arrival of her husband Xu Tianyi at first, after all, as a wealthy young lady who grew up in the capital, she had no choice but to grow up to the age of hair. She was still concerned about her marriage. You are full of all kinds of imaginations, and you even thought that you will marry the prince and grandson. But suddenly one day someone tells you that you will marry a poor boy. No one can accept this for a while, not to mention that this kind of God's will is nothing. What stood out was that his academic performance was only mediocre, and his appearance was also mediocre. Even because of a scar on his face, this mediocre face only looked a little scary and ferocious.
Under such circumstances, how could Zhou Yaoniang accept such a person?
However, as I got to know and get along with Xu Tianyi, I discovered that Xu Tianyi was not as scary as he seemed on the outside. At least he was considerate, gentle and meticulous.
With this understanding of him, Zhou Yaoniang didn't want to bear the label of being too poor and fond of the rich.
So after that, Zhou Yaoniang's attitude towards Xu Tianyi naturally made a 180-degree turn.
However, she was not as direct as Xu Tianyi at the moment. She just nodded shyly, indicating that she was willing to accept such an arrangement.
Seeing that neither of them had objections, Mrs. Zhou finally let go of her pursuit of fame and fortune for so many years.
With their family now in such a state of affairs, people at the same level in the capital naturally looked down upon a family like theirs, and in order to keep the family's money, it seemed that she had only this choice now.
And the person in front of him is at least loyal and reliable.
That's why Zhou chose such a son-in-law.
"Well, since both of you are positive about this matter, I naturally don't need to beat you up. I will choose a good and auspicious day to hold your wedding nearby, but you also have to do it during this time. Remember to observe etiquette.”
After finishing her words, Zhou only looked at her prospective son-in-law, Xu Tianyi.
"God's will, you can't live in our house during this period. Before getting married, this is very important, so you can't see each other during this period. I will arrange another house for you, and then Arrange for some servants and maids to accompany you there. I wonder if you would be willing?"
Naturally, Xu Tianyi had no objection to Zhou's arrangement.
"God's will follows my aunt's arrangement." Xu Tianyi said honestly.
However, upon hearing the title Xu Tianyi, the maid on the side smiled and said, "Uncle, do you still call me aunt now?"
After hearing the reminders from the maids, Xu Tianyi seemed to finally have some reaction. He immediately changed his words and said, "God's will is willing to obey mother's arrangements."
Seeing Xu Tianyi is still a good idea.
Zhou just nodded with satisfaction.
…
At this moment, the front hall of Zhou Mansion was naturally filled with joy.
After all, good things are approaching now, and everyone has to start arranging the wedding banquet at home.
However, the small courtyard behind was filled with misery.
"I want to see Madam, please get Madam over quickly. I was wronged. I did not drug my uncle! Someone must have slandered me!"
In the woodshed in the backyard, Fang Yue'er shouted hoarsely. It could be said that Fang Yue'er had been shouting like this all night since she was locked in the woodshed.
Now she can hardly even speak, but she is still screaming that she is wronged.
Although no one paid attention to her, and no one was willing to take a second look at her, she was still unwilling to give up her unjust accusation.
It's a pity that no one is willing to come in and take a look at her at this time, and no one wants to know if she is unjust.
Although many men usually like to hang around her, they are as greedy to see her as bees are to a flower.
But now when she is really in trouble, none of the men who used to hang around her are gone.
