Chapter 132 Wan Zhou, how can you be so cruel? You don't want me and push me out
Juxian Building
After hearing Wanzhou's idea of leaving, Huayang was slow to express her opinion. Wanzhou also knew Huayang's style. She would think through every aspect of a matter before expressing her opinion. She was not in a hurry and waited.
"Miss, if you want to leave by yourself, I can take you away now. But..."
Huayang looked at her solemnly and said, "Miss, now that you have a young master, I still hope that you will reconsider."
Huayang asked her to think about it, and Wanzhou thought it was necessary, and she was still considering it. But Wanzhou could vaguely see from his gloomy eyes that he didn't seem to agree.
"Brother Huayang, if you feel there is something wrong, just tell me now." Wan Zhou still asked the question in his heart.
Huayang was silent for a long time before he said solemnly, "Miss, I know that leaving Shangjing is the best thing for you. You will be free and untroubled."
"But, young masters..." Huayang seemed to be in trouble again, as if the next words were difficult to say.
"Brother Huayang, just tell me whatever you want to say." Wan Zhou started to get anxious when he saw how embarrassed he was.
"Then I'll be frank." Hua Yang drank a cup of tea and said, "The young masters are the general's flesh and blood. They could have had the most noble birth, the brightest future, and the general's personal education..."
"Brother Huayang..." Wan Zhou interrupted: "Why are you suddenly saying this?"
It is impossible that Huayang had not thought of what he said before. He didn't mention it before, but suddenly said it now. Wan Zhou always felt it was strange.
She did not hide anything about Ji Nanzheng from Huayang, including the fact that Ji Nanzheng had arranged someone next door, which Huayang also knew.
Is it because of this that Huayang feels that she should be entangled with Ji Nanzheng again?
"Brother Huayang, it's not like I haven't thought about it. If the children grow up with Ji Nanzheng, they will be rich and outstanding. But who says they won't be outstanding if they grow up with me?" Wan Zhou suddenly couldn't understand Huayang.
"Besides, why do people have to be so outstanding? Ji Nanzheng is very outstanding, but he is not necessarily happy."
In fact, Wan Zhou believes that the more outstanding a person is, the further away from happiness he may be. It is good to be an ordinary person.
"Miss, don't be anxious." Huayang quickly poured some water and handed it over.
"Miss, drink some water first. I don't mean to persuade you to do anything."
"So what do you mean?" Wan Zhou felt impatient with Huayang for the first time.
"Miss, the young master will definitely not suffer if he follows you. I am confident of this. I also believe that you will raise the young master well. But no matter what, their identities are different, and they will be criticized a lot."
"This is not the most important thing. If, in the future, the young master falls in love with a woman who is not of the same social status as him, he might..." Huayang paused again.
He kept his eyes fixed on the teacup in front of him, and after a moment's hesitation, he spoke again: "Because of his status, he might be afraid of having his crush known, so he can only carefully hide the person he likes deep in his heart."
Huayang seemed to be having a hard time speaking, and after he finished speaking he covered his face with his hands to hide his expression. However, Wanzhou felt that Huayang's expression was as if he was talking about himself.
"Brother Huayang, is there someone you like but can't tell anyone?" Wan Zhou asked as soon as he thought of it.
Hua Yang curled his hands to cover his face, then took them away. His eyes were still fixed on the teacup in front of him. He shook his head and smiled, "Miss, you know. I am just like you. I like freedom and don't like being bound."
Wan Zhou: “…”
Does this conflict with her question? No, it doesn't? Besides, Huayang's smile has a bitter taste no matter how you look at it.
"But I did speak from my heart..." Huayang immediately said.
"..., there was a scholar named Liang Yecheng in Xinpufang. He ranked 28th in the provincial examination. Even if he did poorly in the palace examination, he would still be a second-class Jinshi. It is said that he is good-looking. He went to the household of Mr. Xie of the Ministry of Revenue to ask for the hand in marriage of his second daughter, but he was not allowed in and was driven away..."
"Then Mr. Liang has a bad family background?" Wan Zhou felt as if something had struck him in the heart. He did not ask about the cause, process, or result, but directly asked the key question.
Hua Yang nodded and said, "Mr. Liang's father is an eighth-rank official in the Ministry of Revenue."
"I understand." Wan Zhou felt heavy in his heart.
Mr. Liang has both parents and is a candidate for the imperial examination, but he is treated like this. What will happen to her as a single mother in the future?
She really hadn't thought about it before. She thought that her conditions were enough to make her children wealthy and go to school well, and she didn't force them to achieve success. As she said before, excellence does not equal happiness.
"But this is just a hypothesis and may not happen." Wan Zhou still didn't want to worry about it.
If you worry about this and that, you won't be able to live like this.
"Miss, I don't mean for you to continue with the general. I just think you don't have to leave Shangjing. Shangjing has the best conditions in all aspects. First, it is conducive to the growth of the young masters. Second, when they grow up, they will know their identities. At that time, Miss can let them make their own choices."
Choose by yourself?
Wan Zhou finally understood what Huayang meant.
"Brother Huayang, I understand. I won't mention leaving Shangjing anymore."
She had selfishly left the children without a father, so at least she should leave them with a choice.
If it was a daughter, she wouldn't even think about it. But for a son, it's actually good to have a father like Ji Nanzheng. If they choose to be Ji Nanzheng's son, she will let him go. It's hard to say anything else about Ji Nanzheng, but she is still relieved to have him as a father.
Wan Zhou did not stay for lunch. After saying a few more words, he got up and left.
As a result, as soon as he walked down the stairs, he was blocked by several women at the staircase entrance. They were the ones who followed Wan Zhou in from the outside. After Wan Zhou went upstairs, they had been waiting downstairs.
"Hey, isn't this our famous General Ji's wife?"
The woman in yellow who was speaking was standing in the middle. She was dressed elegantly and had a pretty appearance, but her eyes were not well-shaped. Her eyelids were drooping, as if she couldn't see people normally.
"Oh my, look at my memory. I actually forgot that it's not the same thing anymore. My apologies. My apologies."
Wan Zhou looked around and didn't recognize any of them. But she was used to it, because of Ji Nanzheng, she had many enemies like this that she didn't know and had never dealt with.
It’s just that before, those people only dared to speak behind people’s backs and didn’t dare to stop them in person.
Wan Zhou raised his eyes, glancing at everyone, and said calmly, "If you know you're being rude, just get out of the way."
"Oh, look at you, you're already divorced, but you're still acting like a general's wife?" The woman in yellow said, laughing wildly, "It's really hilarious."
"Oh, Sister Yan, let's go. This Juxianlou is really something. It claims to be the best restaurant, but anyone can come in. Let's go, it's unlucky." Another woman in pink pretended to pull the woman in yellow, looking at Wan Zhou with contempt.
But as he talked about leaving, he didn't move a single step.
Huayang clenched his fists behind Wanzhou, but if he showed up at this time, it would cause trouble for Wanzhou. With a grim face, he went to find Manager Wu.
"Ladies, it's unfortunate that Miss Gu is the major shareholder of Juxian Building. Why don't you all turn right and go to another place?"
After receiving Huayang's personal order, Shopkeeper Wu stood very straight and spoke in a firm tone.
After hearing this, everyone's expression changed.
"Gu Wanzhou is the major shareholder?" The woman in yellow looked unwilling to believe it.
Juxianlou is not an ordinary restaurant, and running this restaurant requires more than just money.
But the person who was speaking was the owner of Juxianlou, and it was impossible for him to help Gu Wanzhou for no reason.
"Oh, I get it. No wonder you're willing to divorce. You want to use the breakup fee you asked General Ji for to invest in the company, right?" The pink-dressed woman couldn't help but sneered.
Wan Zhou knew that this was Hua Yang's intention, so he supported him. He looked up at the pink-dressed woman and smiled, "What's the point of being sour? Go back and work hard, become General Ji's wife, get a breakup fee, and open a business. That's it."
"Wanzhou."
As soon as Wan Zhou finished speaking, Ji Nanzheng's voice suddenly sounded beside him.
Following the sound, Ji Nanzheng stood beside Wan Zhou, turned aside and said as if no one was around: "How can you be so cruel? You don't want me, but push me out."
