When Xu Mingshi suddenly heard this, he couldn't react.
The boy who has not yet reached his age has only a vague understanding of this kind of thing, but fortunately he is also smart. When he heard this, he thought of many things, and for a while he couldn't help but feel a little weird and complicated.
What does mother mean, Xu Mingyi and Wu Shisun...?
In other words, Wu Shisun - might he be his brother-in-law?
After going around in such a long way, is Wu Shisun still going to end up being a happy ending for his sister?
No, it seems that it cannot be said to be a decline, right?
After all, to be fair, Xu Mingyi is not bad either...
And if Wu Shisun is really regarded as his future brother-in-law, it seems that he is not without flaws?
The inherent pickiness of being a brother-in-law just tried to come to mind, but the innocent and fat figure of Big Bird flashed before his eyes, and the boy suddenly felt that anyone with a discerning eye could see that Wu Shisun obviously had more advantages.
"Reveal more..." Seeing her son's delay in answering, Ms. Cui urged and assured: "Don't worry, mother will never let anyone find out that it was you who leaked the news."
Looking at his mother who was even a little humble for the sake of gossip, Xu Mingshi reluctantly said: "Actually, it doesn't seem to be anything right now. It's just that we have some contacts in secret, and the relationship is good."
"What else?"
"One time last year... I bumped into my sister disguised as a woman and walking around the lantern market with Wu Shisun."
Cui's eyes widened slightly.
Did you go shopping together at the lantern market?
"But I warned her on the spot to go home early -" Xu Mingshi explained for himself: "They should have something serious to do that night..."
It was also that night that he obtained the right to raise the Third Eye.
Ms. Cui then asked: "What then?"
"Then...Wu Shisun went back to Ningyang. Occasionally he would write to me and ask about the situation of the Third Eye..."
And now that I think about it - "I will also ask about Xu Mingyi's matters."
Cui's face changed: "You said everything he asked?"
Looking at his mother's face, Xu Mingshi nodded guiltily: "I told you..."
Thinking about it now, when facing Wu Shisun, he seemed to be a little rash and careless. How could he casually tell others about Xu Mingyi's affairs? He was even used to talking about it, and sometimes he would take the initiative to bring it up.
Ms. Cui's face became even more deadly: "Silly boy, what did you say?"
"Just some ordinary things..."
"Have you ever had anything bad to say about your sister?" Ms. Cui asked, staring closely at her son.
Xu Mingshi was startled.
Co-authored...Is this the point of motherhood?
Out of a strong instinct that he would be beaten if he admitted it, the boy shook his head: "That's not true..."
"That's right!" Ms. Cui breathed a sigh of relief, and then taught her in detail: "Not only can't you say a word about your sister, but you also have to praise me, praise her hard... But you can't be too deliberate, it's best.
It is a side foil, showing praise and affirmation of your sister invisibly, so that it can appear authentic and credible, understand?"
Xu Mingshi: ...I give you the pen, will you write next time?
"Remember, our elbows cannot be turned outward." After Ms. Cui explained this, she picked up the tea cup and moistened her throat.
"What's wrong with this..." Xu Mingshi sighed: "My sister may not like Wu Shisun."
Ms. Cui looked sideways at her son and asked, "Which man do you often see your sister walking alone in the lantern market with?"
Xu Mingshi remained silent.
This is indeed not the case.
Not only no, but in normal times, if someone dared to ask her to go shopping at the lantern market, or if they bothered her, they would probably be beaten up.
"You don't understand anything yet, so stop making blind decisions and just listen to me."
After using the gossip, Mrs. Cui returned to being simple and rude when talking to her son.
Xu Mingshi said "Oh" and had a plan in mind.
Regardless of whether Xu Mingyi likes it or not, I’ll prepare it in case I like it.
Xu Mingyi, who knew nothing about the conversation between mother and son, was walking beside Duke Zhen Guo at this time.
The night was already dark, with Ah Zhu holding a lantern in front and Qin Wuyunliu following behind. There was no need to worry about being overheard in the conversation. Xu Mingyi asked softly: "I heard that my grandfather mobilized troops today and did not ask the emperor for instructions?"
She naturally knew that she was disappointed with the emperor, but she still wanted to hear what her grandfather had to say.
"It makes no difference whether you ask for instructions or not." Zhen Guogong looked at the night ahead and said in a low voice: "People's hearts have been determined, no matter what, it is all in vain. Now I have truly seen my situation clearly. This is what Zhaozhao said at the beginning
You’re right, it’s safest to hold the chips in your own hands.”
The old man said, turned to look at his granddaughter, and changed the topic with a smile on his face: "Zhao Zhao has always had a good taste, and that boy from the Wu family is indeed very good."
Xu Mingyi did not avoid this question and asked with a smile: "It has only been a few days, but my grandfather is already satisfied?"
However, Wu Chao is indeed very good.
And her grandfather's taste was as good as hers.
"Yes, I am generally satisfied." Duke Zhenguo sighed: "Finally, there is someone who can make my grandfather trust you."
"Why should we entrust it to someone?" Xu Mingyi said seriously: "If two people get along well, they will be together happily, but my granddaughter does not need to entrust herself to anyone, she can take care of herself."
She doesn't like the word "entrust".
This is not against Wu Chao, nor does it mean that he is not worthy of his trust.
But in the last life, her grandfather told her this, saying that he would entrust her to the Wu family, so he felt relieved.
Since then, she always felt that these two words were like a sign of separation, as if she was handed over to someone else, and she had nothing to do with the dangers of the Xu family, and was left out of the situation.
Besides, when two people are together, why does it have to be a relationship of entrustment and being entrusted?
"You're right, my granddaughter doesn't need to be entrusted to anyone!" Zhen Guogong smiled and nodded: "My grandfather said something wrong at that moment - my family married Zhaozhao just to be happy, not because of entrustment.
.”
In the final analysis, one has to protect one's own children to feel most at ease. As Zhaozhao said, getting married is just for fun. If you are unhappy, you can just take him back.
Hearing what the old man said, Xu Mingyi smiled like a child who had been made happy.
"By the way, Grandpa——"
She suddenly asked: "Did you beat Master Ji?"
Duke Zhenguo said with a hint of pride: "That's right, I beat him! If he dares to bully my granddaughter, Xu Qiwei, beating him is considered a light punishment!"
Hearing the old man's voice, which was not muffled at all and not afraid of being overheard, as if he was deliberately trying to give her the confidence to support her, the smile on Xu Mingyi's face grew stronger.
