Chapter 1182: Chapter 1182: Be More Content
Originally, she was prepared to follow Madam Zhou’s words and kick Ninth Miss while she was down, so that the Zhou family could properly punish her later, but upon observing the current situation, the nanny did not say anything she shouldn’t have.
"Moreover, my master has asked me to relay a few words to Elder Mr. Zhou, although Ninth Miss is born of a concubine, she has been raised in luxury since childhood. As a miss from the governor’s mansion, she cannot bear the slightest grievance.
If Ninth Miss were to be treated unjustly in your household in the future, my master will certainly not sit idly by. Elder Mr. Zhou, do you understand my master’s earnest intentions?"
On the contrary, she repeated the instructions from the governor to Madam Zhou with Elder Mr. Zhou without missing a single word.
One would think, Ninth Miss, going from the pampered life of a noble daughter to becoming a daughter-in-law in such a place, serving her father-in-law and mother-in-law, would suffer greatly. If she were to add insult to injury, and the master eventually found out, she definitely wouldn’t have a good outcome.
It’s better to say nothing at all and let Ninth Miss figure things out on her own.
Furthermore, she had also inquired about Madam Zhou of the Zhou family. She’s the type who says one thing to your face but does another in secret. On the surface, she claims that she won’t mistreat Ninth Miss, but who knows how she might bully Ninth Miss behind closed doors?
When the time comes, letting Madam Zhou turn a blind eye will suffice.
"Understood, Nanny. You can assure the governor that once Ninth Miss marries into our Zhou family, I will treat her like my own granddaughter," Elder Mr. Zhou promised earnestly.
Now, as long as someone could bring him silver, he was willing to provide for Feng Yurui.
He had already planned that once Feng Yurui married into the family, he would certainly have her turn over her entire dowry to him for safekeeping. Then, he would no longer need to cater to the insolent Second.
"That’s good to hear," the nanny said.
Without saying much more, the nanny sat for a short while before leaving.
"Wonderful, just wonderful," Madam Zhou muttered to herself as she watched the people from the governor’s mansion leave.
Although the marriage was a bit rushed, she would no longer have to enter the kitchen in the future. All the dirty and tiring work could be handed over to Feng Yurui, and she would be free from it.
"Big Brother, hurry up and take this disgraceful thing back to the room!" Old Master Zhou impatiently glanced at his daughter-in-law and ordered his son.
"Yes, Father."
Old Master Zhou also felt that his daughter-in-law was a disgrace. He grabbed her arm and dragged her toward the room.
Meanwhile, at the gate of the courtyard, Elder Mr. Zhou looked at his grandson Zhou Liang, and Zhou Liang was also looking back at his grandfather.
"Grandfather, I don’t want to marry..."
Even now, he had not come to terms with the situation, believing that marrying Feng Yurui was not the best choice.
"You need to be obedient for grandfather," Elder Mr. Zhou didn’t give him a chance to speak, his voice low with warning, "The matter of marrying Ninth Miss is finalized. You will enter the bridal chamber tomorrow night obediently for grandfather. Do you understand?!"
"Grandfather!"
Zhou Liang felt an absolute refusal in his heart. He simply did not want to marry that Feng Yurui.
Although marrying Feng Yurui would bring a considerable dowry, she was also the Ninth Miss from the governor’s mansion. She couldn’t be bullied by the Zhou family as his mother imagined.
In time, he feared it would be him who would be bullied!
But it was different with Lin Caisang. If he married Lin Caisang, as long as he treated her well, her silver and her skills unknown to them could all be utilized for his benefit.
