Chapter 321 The Republic of China: Countryside First Wife and Indifferent Commander 22
Guan Jingchong nodded: "You don't have to be afraid, my aunt will not make things difficult for you."
Ling Zhi could only smile and nod: "That's good. , but when will my concubine arrive, what should I prepare?”
Guan Jingchong pondered: “If you want to prepare, you can?” I'll buy some cakes on the day she comes, and let Ma Liu prepare the rest."
Ling Zhi nodded, seeing that he was about to get busy, and left the study without bothering, as for Aunt Zou. The evidence for using Uncle Quan to kill Mrs. Guan has naturally disappeared after so many years, but the doctor who gave Uncle Quan the medicine when he was in Fenghan is still there.
She could send someone to check first, and it would be better for the doctor to admit it to Guan Jingchong himself.
Mama Liu was very happy when she heard that Aunt Zou was coming. She had another small building next to the villa cleaned, saying that the building was originally prepared for Aunt Zou. Aunt Zou was very happy. He tidied up the house over there and gave it to her.
Ling Zhi took a look and saw that the interior was well decorated and used all good things. She gritted her teeth and wanted to find out the matter quickly.
She doesn't deserve to use these things at all.
In the past three days, Guan Jingchong and she still traveled to and from the outside of the city, the nursery and the commander's office. But she, once saw Guan Junzhang while waiting for Guan Jingchong, and she took two steps toward him. He immediately felt disgusted. He quickly turned around and returned to school.
He didn't seem to want anything to do with her at all.
Ling Zhi just raised her eyebrows and stopped. After Guan Jingchong's military vehicle arrived, she got in the vehicle and went back home with him without telling him about it.
Guan Jingchong said he arrived on the fifth day. In fact, early in the morning on the third day, Aunt Zou was escorted to the door by Uncle Quan. At that time, she was attending classes in the nursery school. It was not until the afternoon that Guan Jingchong came back from outside the city. After picking her up, they found out after they returned home.
The car stopped in front of the fountain. As soon as the two got out of the car, they saw a tall and thin middle-aged woman in her forties with a long face and high jawbone wearing a dark green cheongsam, smiling. Come out of the house.
“Auntie?” Guan Jingchong was surprised.
Mrs. Zou walked forward quickly with broken steps. Tears welled up in her eyes quickly. She looked up and down: "Jing Chong, look at you. You are thinner and darker than during the Qingming Festival. I told you to have a good rest and leave the matter to the following. Didn't you listen?"
Guan Jingchong just said: " There are some things that I have to do myself. You should tell me in advance and let someone pick you up."
Aunt Zou didn't care: "You are so busy, I can just call a rickshaw." She wiped her tears and looked. He looked at Lin Zhi, who was standing next to him, and said, "This is..." His eyes were puzzled and a little uncertain.
Guan Jingchong: "Ling Zhi, she was the one whom my father decided to marry."
Aunt Zou looked suddenly enlightened and stepped forward to hold Lin Zhi's hand, with a sincere and enthusiastic smile on her face: "It turns out it's you. You're so beautiful. Just now you got out of the car and I thought you were from some girl who didn't dare to recognize you. You look like this and that kid Junzhang is really cheap."
His face suddenly turned sad again, and he looked at her with a distressed expression: "I heard that your mother has died since she was a child, and your father was hit by a beam because of the flood in your hometown... Poor child, it's really hard for you to be able to travel thousands of miles alone. I found this place from Hunan and Guizhou.”
Every word was unfriendly, piercing Lin Zhi’s heart like a sharp knife.
Guan Jingchong frowned, feeling that it was really inappropriate for his aunt to say this, but after all, he was an elder, so he couldn't speak for the moment.
"But don't worry, when you marry Junzhang in the future, I will love you like my own daughter." The smile on his face was gentle and friendly.
Ling Zhi's smile did not reach her eyes: "Mrs. Zou didn't expect that you are different from the second young master. That day when brother Jing Chong told the second young master about the marriage, he directly said that he would not marry an old-fashioned woman like me. He thought I was not good enough. I am not worthy of him after having been abroad, and I am afraid that you will despise me as much as he does.”
"I feel relieved with your words." Aunt Zou suddenly looked uneasy. For many years, outsiders have called her the second wife or the second wife. Very few people called her concubine to her face... What's more, this woman also said that her son was not good at all. good.
When they met for the first time, she decisively looked down on Lin Zhi and let go with a smile: "Don't worry."
He turned to talk to Guan Jingchong, "Quickly Come in, I'm back with your favorite Liuji nuts." He walked into the house with a smile and passed by Uncle Quan who was standing by with a smile. Guan Jingchong also said hello to him.
Ling Zhi slowly followed behind and took a look at Uncle Quan, who was of medium build, with a mustache, and was chubby. He looked very kind, but in fact he had a dark heart.
He just nodded as a greeting and entered the house.
Aunt Zou took out the things she brought from Chengdu like a treasure. Her laughter filled the room. Guan Jingchong didn't say much, but he nodded in agreement while sitting aside.
During this period, Mrs. Zou did not forget about Lin Zhi and gave her some balms and cosmetics, saying that all the ladies used them.
Ling Zhi smiled and accepted it. It was not until Guan Jingchong asked her to go to her residence to have a look that she went to the building next door.
Aunt Zou rested, and Lin Zhi also went upstairs. Not long after, there was a knock on the door, and it was Guan Jingchong who opened the door. He said, "You don't need to pay attention to what Auntie said just now. She actually speaks very thoughtfully on weekdays, I guess. I was so tired that I didn’t pay attention to what I said.”
Lin Zhi nodded: "I don't care, it's just." She raised her head and looked at him, "I think my concubine doesn't want a daughter-in-law like me."
She lowered her eyes: "If my son marries a wife, I will definitely I also hope that he will marry a woman with a good family background and who can help him. It would be better if the woman is well-educated and sensible.”
“I have a family already. He has no relatives and a poor family background..."
"Only men with no ability are always looking for a wife with a good family background."
Guan Jingchong interrupted her, "Besides, you have gone to school. You are also learning English now, so why belittle yourself? Don’t think too much. Call Junzhang back tomorrow and things will work out for you two.”
Looking at her, "You take a rest first and go downstairs for dinner later."
Ling Zhi was stared at by him and could only nod, then he turned and left. However, he had a good idea, but the mother and son were She won't let the marriage succeed.
Aunt Zou cooked many of Mrs. Zou’s favorite dishes for dinner, and she also made witty remarks at the table. She would pick up dishes for Guan Jingchong from time to time, and she looked like she loved him.
After dinner, we chatted in the living room for a while, Aunt Zou went to rest, and the two of them returned to the house.
The next morning, Lin Zhi and Guan Jingchong went out after dinner, but met Mrs. Zou who had gotten up in the yard. She asked them where they were going. They learned that Lin Zhi went to the nursery to ask for leave, and Guan Jingchong also went to represent outside the city. After finding out what happened, he asked them to call Guan Junzhang back when they came back.
She watched with a smile as the two of them got into the car together. When Qi Linzhi got in the car, she stepped on her skirt. Guan Jingchong held her firmly with one hand to steady her, and the two of them got in the car and left.
Her eyes narrowed: "Uncle Quan, do you feel that Lin Zhi and the young master are too close?"
