Chapter 40 The Son of the Marquis Mansion
The old lady woke up soon, and she felt at ease after seeing Jin Zhao almost every day in the past few days, and her complexion improved a lot in the days when Jin Zhao was by her side.
One day, the old lady cheerfully pulled Jin Zhao into her room and opened her treasure chest.
"Zhao Er, look, this is something that grandma prepared for you early in the morning, but you were very playful at that time, and you stayed at home for too short a time, so you never had a chance to give it to you. Now it's all right, here it is."
It was a golden longevity lock with a red string on it, and it didn't look cheap.
Jin Zhao had a complicated expression on his face and didn't take it.
"Son, go on, can it be that grandma is so out of your sight?"
Jin Zhao shook his head hastily, "This is too precious, I'm afraid I'll accidentally lose it." After all, it's someone else's property, so it's not suitable for him to take this counterfeit.
Although have seen a lot of time-traveling romance novels before, the hero and heroine who time-traveled enjoyed all the things of the original owner as a matter of course, but... this scene is his turn, and always feel a little inappropriate.
Seeing what he said, the old lady untied the red rope and tied it around his neck, "This way it won't fall off!"
Seeing her look of joy and contentment, Jin Zhao really couldn't bear to say no more words of rejection.
Afternoon, small garden.
Jin Zhao took off the longevity lock and handed it to Cui Yinyin.
"Your grandmother gave it to me. It's not easy to refuse her in person."
Cui Yinyin didn't answer, "You take what she gave you."
"It's not mine, I shouldn't take it."
"You...Are you still angry with me? You haven't paid much attention to me these days." Cui Yinyin asked timidly.
Jin Zhao shook his head and said, "No, you saved me, so why would I be angry?"
He was thinking about Zheng's words.
Mrs. Zheng has said everything to that point, and Cui Yinyin is kind to him, if he refuses again, it will be impossible to justify it, and... the old lady has been relying on him very much recently.
He had already given up his identity as Xiaoliu before, and survived with his own name. In this extraordinary era, if he could have his own identity...perhaps it would be much more convenient for him to do things.
"Look, what am I talking about? This child doesn't look like the kind of person who steals, rapes and plays tricks. You have seen it in the past two days!" Cui and his wife stood at the corner, seeing this scene clearlyClearly and carefully.
"That's not necessarily true. Both of you mother and daughter have extremely superficial eyesight, so you have been fooled by just these two strokes? My Marquis Mansion family has a big business. It's not that simple to take advantage." Although Cui Fengzhi's face was not very good, his eyesStill couldn't help but look at Jin Zhao more.
A few more days passed.
Cui Fengzhi called him to the side hall alone.
"Have you thought about Madam's proposal?"
Jin Zhao naturally knew that Cui Marquis had been displeased with him all the time, his face had been dark for several days, and he still noticed it.
"If you think about it, I'm willing to do it."
As if it was within Cui Fengzhi's expectation, he smiled disdainfully and said, "Well, I knew you would choose this way. After all, in such a huge Marquis Mansion, who wouldn't want to have a relationship and stick to it."
Although this sounds harsh, it is reasonable for most people to think so. Now he is a penniless ordinary person. In the eyes of others, Marquis Mansion is indeed a big piece of fat, a big springboard for promotion and fortune., Ordinary people may not be able to reach this state if they work hard for a lifetime.
"But it's not that simple to be the son of my Cui family. Do you... dare to go to the military camp?"
barracks?
He looked up at Cui Fengzhi, motioning for him to continue talking.
"Let me tell you bluntly, my son of the Cui family is already a blockbuster if he doesn't make a name for himself. Going to the military camp is just a layer of gold for your identity. The only thing you have to do is to survive a long few years in the military camp, and then you canIt is logical to add an official to you, can you do it?"
Jin Zhao thought for two or three seconds, "Of course."
