Chapter 25Translated by Air11Unedited
“Good . ” Zi You didn’t voice an objection and dragged Liu Shi towards her grandfather’s study .
She knew that it wasn’t that Liu Shi didn’t trust her and feared that she would ruin it; she would take responsibility . Instead, it was because Liu Shi didn’t know whether or not Old General Mu would let her look after the arrangements .
Liu Shi noticed that her schedule was full with no free time . You don’t need to learn knowledge like your life depends on it . Her heart ached .
Even the people taking the palace examinations didn’t work as hard as Zi You nor had her mentality of studying as if her life depended on it . The Lord worried about her and constantly found ways for her to nourish her body .
When Old General Mu heard that Zi You wanted to organize the Mid-Autumn banquet, he blankly stared at her .
Immediately, he asked in a concerned tone, “Do you have time? Every day you study so much late into the night . You want to learn how to manage the household this soon . You’er, you can’t be anxious to get married? “
Marriage! In my previous reincarnation, I married a scum . He made me suffer all kinds of pain and tribulations . In this reincarnation, I will never trust any men except for Grandfather and Second Uncle .
As Zi You secretly swore an oath in her heart, her smiling expression didn’t change, like still water that was free of any ripples . “Granddaughter doesn’t want to marry . I want to stay by Grandfather’s side for a lifetime . ”
This was the second time Zi You told Old General Mu that she didn’t want to get married . The last time, Old General Mu thought she said it out of hate . However, this time, he felt that his granddaughter was proclaiming her decision .
Old General Mu felt a bit of uneasiness . In his heart he surmised, could his granddaughter not trust men because his son drugged her?
This isn’t good . This year Zi You is 10 years old . In October, she’ll turn 11 . Next year they’ll discuss marriage, and after another two or three years they’ll marry . If she doesn’t want to marry, how can this be good?
It looks like he needs to think of methods to let her have more interactions with good men . But who among the noble sons can wholeheartedly treat You’er well?
The old general considered each of the noble sons in the capital . He furrowed his eyebrows and was in deep thought for a long time . Even then, he couldn’t find a perfect man who could be an appropriate partner for his granddaughter .
At last, he slapped his thigh and decided that during this years Mid-Autumn Festival, he’ll request some more noble sons to come and accompany his granddaughter .
Of course he concealed this matter from You’er and secretly had Second Uncle prepare this .
Zi You wasn’t aware of her grandfather’s idea . The reason why she requested to organize the Mid-Autumn banquet was only to welcome a women who stood out from the masses, to destroy Wang Yiping’s love towards Mu Yingrui, to not let Wang Yiping impregnate her, and to not let her give birth to a son .
If you want to find a woman that stands out from the masses, you cannot stay in the general’s mansion . You have to take a trip outside yourself .
When Zi You told Old General Mu that she wanted to leave, he instinctively blocked her, “How is it possible? You’re a young girl . If you went out and became a target of some bad people, how is that good? “
Zi You knew her grandfather wouldn’t happily agree for her to leave . Thus, without any anxiety, she smiled and asked, “Then what is the use of studying martial arts with you? If I can’t even deal with some bad people, how will I fight alongside you on a battlefield? “
Old General Mu only just understood what his granddaughter’s purpose in learning martial arts was . Astonished, he glared at his eldest son, “Nonsense! How can a girl go to the battlefield and kill people? “
“Why not?” Zi You replied, “Is Mother not a woman? The things Mother can do, why can’t You’er do? “
Speaking to here, a layer of mist emerged on her eyes that shone like crystals . “Grandfather, mother isn’t here anymore, so I’ll shoulder Mother’s responsibility . I’ll guard Grandfather and Second Uncle, saving you from death and healing your injuries . “
