Zhu Manor.
In the main hall.
Zhu Gongyuan's face was gloomy as he paced back and forth.
He was very depressed.
The Zhu family's happy event had become the joke of the entire Shangyu County overnight.
Not only that.
What was worse was that Marvin had announced that he was cutting ties with the Zhu Family.
He had personally paid a visit, but before he could even enter the door, he was chased back.
What a great humiliation!
"Deng, Deng, Deng."
Hurried footsteps sounded.
"I'm so angry! He was really furious! Sooner or later, I'll settle the score with you!”
Zhu Yingqi walked into the main hall angrily.
"Bastard, how can you be so frivolous? You're an official in the court.”
Zhu Gongyuan frowned and scolded angrily.
He was already annoyed enough, and when he saw his disappointing son, he was even more annoyed.
"Dad, you don't know, but those people in the county government are snobbish. They heard that Ma Wencai cut off relations with our Zhu Family yesterday, and when I went to the county government today, these people dared to give me a hard time. They even pushed all the difficult work on me, making me tired to death and thankless.”
Zhu Yingqi said all the grievances in his heart.
Previously.
The people in the county government were all very respectful to him. They kept talking about Young Master Zhu and bowed all day long. They were even more servile than servants.
Now, it was better.
They heard that Marvin had cut ties with the Zhu Family yesterday, and they all turned hostile.
Zhu Yingqi was already used to being flattered.
Of course, he couldn't stand such ostracism and grievances.
In a fit of anger, he left the county office.
"What is it? Even you?" Zhu Gongyuan's expression changed slightly.
"Father, what do you mean?" Zhu Yingqi raised his head curiously.
"Sigh!" Zhu Gongyuan sighed and shook his head."Your seven brothers just finished complaining to me. They all encountered the same situation as you. All of them were ostracized by their colleagues, to the point where they had no place to stand.”
Zhu Gongyuan's intestines were about to turn green with regret.
Back then.
If he hadn't been so ambitious and stopped while he was ahead, perhaps he wouldn't have ended up in this state today.
This time, it was good.
It was all for naught.
Not only was the rich husband gone, but the Zhu family had also become a joke.
Maybe.
The prestige of the family that they had painstakingly built up would also be gone.
At the thought of this…
Zhu Gongyuan's heart ached as if it was twisted.
Regret!
He was unwilling!
"If you ask me, it's all that Ma Wencai's fault! Did he take the wrong medicine? It was as if he had changed into a different person yesterday. In the past, he had poured out his heart and lungs to his little sister, but now, he was like a stranger.”
Zhu Yingqi was puzzled.
This was the tradition of the Zhu family.
If something happened, he would first find the reason from others.
"Yeah, what happened?”
Zhu Gongyuan's brows were also tightly knitted together.
He had not slept the entire night and could not figure out what went wrong.
"Master, Miss is back!"
At this moment, a servant rushed in.
"Humph! She still had the face to come back? Let her in!"
Zhu Gongyuan's face sank as he said in a bad mood.
Not long after.
Zhu Yingtai walked into the main hall.
At this moment, she had already changed her makeup.
Her hair was like a crescent moon on her forehead, and her hair was tied up in a high bun. She was wearing an emerald green dress that dragged to the ground.
Like light clouds rising from the mountains, a faint fragrance assailed people.
He spoke his mind.
In terms of appearance and temperament, Zhu Yingtai could be considered to be one of the best in the world.
"Father, brother, I'm back.”
Zhu Yingtai slightly bent his knees and bowed.
Looking at her pitiful appearance, Zhu Gongyuan's anger instantly dissipated by more than half.
This precious daughter was the apple of his eye.
No matter what trouble she had caused, Zhu Gongyuan had never really blamed her.
"Tell me, what kind of thing is this? You actually pretended to be your brother's bride and helped your sister-in-law elope. Do you know that our Zhu family has become the biggest joke in Shangyu County?”
Zhu Gongyuan's face was dark as he scolded.
"Father, of course I know."
"Your daughter also knows that Ma Wencai broke off relations with our Zhu Family yesterday, causing our eight brothers to be ostracized by their colleagues, causing our Zhu Family's reputation to plummet.”
Zhu Yingtai's expression was indifferent.
She didn't seem anxious at all.
"Little sister, I also feel that Marvin isn't worthy of you, but our Zhu Family really can't leave him.”
Zhu Yingqi was a little dejected.
He had to admit.
In Shangyu County, the Ma Family was the local tyrant!
"Father, brother, do you think we can always be above others just because we rely on others? In the end, don't we still have to listen to others?”
Zhu Yingtai raised his eyes slightly.
Since last night.
Ma Wencai's figure was deeply imprinted in Zhu Yingtai's mind.
His cold attitude and cold words made her feel a little uncomfortable.
It was as if he was used to being high and mighty, but was suddenly smashed into pieces by someone.
Zhu Yingtai couldn't stand this feeling.
She had to become even more outstanding and make Marvin regret it before her!
"Then what can we do? Our Zhu family is not a famous family. If we don't have any other connections, when will we be able to stand out?”
Zhu Gongyuan sighed and shook his head helplessly.
