Chapter 326 The third marriage is destined by nature, the seventh marriage depends on hard work
"Owner?"
How did you become the master here?
Chu Nanzhi was surrounded by a group of people and welcomed into the courtyard in confusion.
After walking for a long time, I saw a group of male and female servants in various costumes standing in front of the majestic main courtyard.
She looked around and immediately spotted a familiar figure in the crowd.
Without allowing her to react, the crowd in front of the courtyard immediately bent down and called her affectionately: "I have met the master."
Then, the familiar figure walked straight towards her with a smile.
"Long time no see, Mrs. Chu, are you okay?"
Chu Nan Zhicheng bowed his body towards the visitor in fear, and said with a stiff smile: "Is Mr. Zhao still in good health?"
"As we get older, we are bound to encounter some minor problems, but lately we have been very stable and healthy."
When Zhao Taigong arrived in front of her, he steadied his steps and stood still. He leaned on the pure gold crutch in his hand, raised his eyes and looked around, and said to her with a smile: "How is it? Madam Chu is very interested in this house."
Still satisfied?"
Chu Nanzhi didn't know what he meant by this, so she could only smile and said: "This house is located in a busy city, but it is elegant and quiet. There are pavilions and pavilions with golden eagles everywhere. It is tall and gorgeous, and it is very dazzling."
"That's good, Madam Chu, please come in."
Taigong Zhao nodded with satisfaction and led her towards the inside.
Arriving in the spacious and comfortable living room, Zhao Taigong diligently offered her a seat, and then ordered the servants to serve her tea. Looking at her radiant and pleasant face, she was a little more feminine than when he saw her before.
She is beautiful and gentle, and the joy in her heart cannot be expressed in words, she just keeps stroking her beard and nodding.
Chu Nanzhi casually picked up the tea bowl, smelled the fragrant tea leaves, and was about to drink it. She accidentally noticed the strange look in Zhao Taigong's direction. She couldn't help being startled, stopped what she was doing, and put the tea bowl back on the table.
Go up and ask hesitantly:
"I wonder why Grandpa invited me here today?"
Zhao Taigong pondered and did not answer, but silently glanced at the servant next to him. Soon he saw the servant walking in front holding a tray in his hand, and two people behind him came up carrying a suitcase.
Zhao Taigong led the servant to her and lifted the red cloth on the tray, then opened the box, revealing the gleaming gold and a large amount of silver notes in the tray.
Chu Nanzhi and Sang Qi looked at each other and were stunned:
What does it mean?
"Here are one thousand taels of gold and ten thousand taels of silver notes. Last time Madam Chu avenged my son, I never thanked Madam Chu in person. Today I have the courage to invite Madam Chu just to thank Madam Chu in person for her kindness. I also invite Madam Chu
You must accept it."
As soon as Zhao Taigong finished speaking, Chu Nanzhi waved his hands in panic: "Your Majesty, you are too polite. Regarding your son, Taigong has already asked Mr. Hu to send you a reward. These gold and silver slaves really don't dare to accept it anymore. I appreciate the kindness of the slaves."
.”
In total, it is a full twenty thousand taels of silver. Although it makes people excited to look at it, it is not easy to put it in your pocket with peace of mind.
I'm afraid this old man is holding something back.
Isn't he the eldest brother who wants to be my wife?
Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Zhao Taigong did not force himself any more, and signaled the servants to put the tray on the table aside, then sat back on the main seat, and said in a low tone: "It seems that Mrs. Chu still has some complaints about the old man's previous neglect."
"That's too harsh a statement."
Chu Nanzhi was very puzzled by his words and quickly explained: "My grandpa was very concerned about what happened before. It is natural for the slave family to have some disputes over the matter of being a loyal person entrusted by others. If we look into it carefully, it is actually the slave family's concern."
It’s not thorough enough, and it’s often reckless.”
"Mrs. Chu is so magnanimous, it really puts this old man to shame."
Zhao Taigong sighed full of self-blame, and said with angrily regret: "A woman as dignified, soft, beautiful and well-informed as Madam Chu could be abandoned in public by a descendant of the down-and-out royal family. I am extremely upset when I think about it."
Unfair.”
"ah?"
Chu Nanzhi looked shocked and couldn't understand his words even more.
"I have heard about Madam Chu. Lin Jinxiao is really nothing. Your Chu family has treated him well over the years. Now that he has become rich, he is ungrateful and divorced his wife in front of the county government office. He is so inferior to a pig and a dog. It is outrageous to both humans and gods."
Zhao Taigong angrily scolded Lin Jinxiao, then calmed down, and comforted Chu Nanzhi in a low voice: "Ms. Chu, you don't have to be afraid. How can an outstanding woman like you be subjected to such a shame and humiliation? This house
This is another courtyard in the city that I have specially prepared for you. You can live here temporarily without any worries."
As he said that, he glanced at the silver notes and a box of gold on the table, and said in a loud voice: "Mrs. Chu, keep these silver coins for expenses. If they are not old enough, they will be sent to you."
"Why do I get more and more confused the more I hear what Grandpa said?"
Chu Nanzhi recalled that when she entered the hospital just now, all the servants called her master. Could it be that the old man wanted to marry her?
Zhao Taigong saw that she was confused and didn't know whether she really didn't understand or was pretending to be confused, so he simply said:
"I won't beat around the bush. Ever since I first met Mrs. Chu, I have felt that you have a different temperament from other women. I feel pity for you. Now I can't bear to see you being humiliated by that shabby household. Just like Mrs. Chu.
If you don’t give up, I am willing to welcome you right away and become the wife of my Zhao family.”
"puff."
Chu Nanzhi almost spit out the sip of tea she just drank.
She quickly covered her mouth, trying to adjust her excitement, calm her boiling blood, and try to stay calm.
The richest man deserves to be the richest man. I really think about it. I still remember that he almost killed himself when I found his son for him, but now he talks about loving her and cherishing her.
No wonder he spent so generously, it turned out to be this intention.
Sang Qi secretly glanced at the old man opposite who had wrinkles on his face and age spots on his cheeks and neck with disdain, and rubbed his master's back in a funny and angry way.
Compared to the young master who has a handsome and picturesque temperament at home, the old man in front of him can be the master's grandfather, but he still wants to break up the marriage, and I don't know where he got this confidence.
Zhao Taigong looked at Chu Nanzhi's sudden move and felt that he had been greatly insulted. He suppressed the anger in his heart and vowed: "If Mrs. Chu thinks that I am joking, I can make a will now."
, after a hundred years of aging, I will entrust all the property of the Zhao family to Mrs. Chu, and I will never break my promise."
Chu Nanzhi stood up when she saw him, and waved her hand quickly: "No, no, no, I believe in Grandpa's sincerity."
It is true that the third marriage is destined by nature, and the seventh marriage depends on hard work.
Zhao Taigong had already married four wives, and now he wanted to be his fifth wife. Even if he had really good intentions, he would find it difficult to obey.
She couldn't even accept Lin Jinxiao's pretty face for the time being, so how could she accept an ancient old man?
I don't want to be a widow at such a young age.
The tricks of the rich are really not attractive to me.
Zhao Taigong noticed the panic in her eyes, as if she had some concerns, and asked anxiously: "Is it possible that Mrs. Chu is afraid that the old man can't fight against the poor man and can't protect you?"
After he asked the question, he answered confidently: "You can rest assured on this point. Lin Jinxiao is only a fifth-grade county official, and he is not afraid of being an old man. The noble Yue from your natal Tong'an village has been arrested at the beginning of the year.
After being canonized as a noble concubine, Lao Chen had a close relationship with Concubine Yue. It was Lao Chen who supported her in entering the imperial concubine.
A while ago, she deliberately sent a message to the old man, and she will return to her hometown to visit her relatives in the near future. At that time, the old man only needs to inform her, and he will be able to remove Lin Jinxiao from his official position and avenge Madam Chu's divorce."
I won't be fooled by this bad old man.
Chu Nanzhi immediately waved his hand: "Tai Gong Zhao, don't listen to those rumors. The relationship between the slave family and Zhuo Fu has always been harmonious. What happened in front of the county government office a few days ago was just a misunderstanding."
