C34 A Stone Stirs a Thousand Ripples

In the backyard of the Zuo's Mansion, Zuo Shuhui was anxiously walking around the room, occasionally asking someone outside, "How is it? Has it dispersed? "

It was only when a woman came to deliver a message saying that Master Lu and a few of the elders had gone out that she rushed out of the room and ran all the way to Wu Hui Yuan.

"Mother …" Zuo Shuhui could no longer remember any disgraceful questions, so she grabbed Mrs. Xue's arm in excitement and asked, "Mother …" Outside... [Is it true?] Is it really Master Lu? "

"Don't be anxious!" "Look at you now, you don't look like a lady anymore." Mrs. Xue was also very excited. Even though her master was so busy that her feet didn't even touch the ground, she was willing to go through with it.

She pushed her daughter down on a chair and asked in amusement: "Does anyone dare to fake Master Lu's identity?"

"Mother, your daughter heard that …" Zuo Shuhui whispered into Mrs. Xue's ear.

Mrs. Xue patted her daughter's hand and said, "When your father comes back, you can ask him. We only heard a few words, so don't misunderstand."

"Mother, you said … "If it's true, then …" Zuo Shuhui's face was flushed, and her eyes were astonishingly bright.

"If it's true, this spot will definitely be yours. Mother, I guarantee it!" Mrs. Xue's palms were dripping with sweat. When she thought of the possibility that her daughter could become Wife of State Duke, her heart couldn't help but tremble.

This was Duke Zhen Manor! If her daughter could marry into the family, she would be a dignified first class wife. Then, she would be an honorable mother.

This was not only a change in status, but also an opportunity for her to return to the capital. She would never be able to forget the beautiful life she had lived in the capital before leaving the pavilion.

After staying in this small place for more than ten years, she felt that she was the same as that country woman. All she could do was suffer for such trivial matters, living without any dignity at all.

"But …" what about Cao Family … " Before she finished speaking, Zuo Shuhui had already started to worry that she would be implicated by the Cao Family.

"Don't worry, Mother will take care of it." A bright light flashed across Mrs. Xue's eyes as she confidently stroked Zuo Shuhui's hair.

After a moment, she said worriedly: "But mother doesn't think this is true, that is the Duke Zhen Manor, a place that even we, as people of the Zuo's Mansion, could not reach during our best times, not to mention that our Zuo's Mansion has already been defeated. Let alone official wife, I'm afraid that even little concubines do not have the qualifications to enter."

Zuo Shuhui's mind became clear after she said that and her eyes reddened. She snuggled up to Mrs. Xue and said, "Mother, didn't you say that great-grandfather wanted to marry Duke Zhen Manor back then? "Perhaps …"

"Ai …" It's just a rumor. Even if it's true, it's still the matter of your great-grandfather's life. The Zuo Family has long been incomparable to the past.

Although Zuo Shuhui agreed with Mrs. Xue's words, she still felt a sliver of luck and urged her mother, "Mother, go call Father back. We'll know if we ask him."

"Stop messing around, your dad will come back when he should be back. Don't leave a bad impression on Master Lu."

The mother and daughter spent their time waiting in this atmosphere of anticipation and unease.

Zuo Yunwen and his brother were also discussing this issue in the study room.

"Big Brother, Master Duke's words are too vague. I am not sure if he wants to marry Zuo's Mansion." The degree of shock in Zuo Yunyang's heart was actually not too high. This was because he had already seen the wooden tablet with Lu Family at Zuo Shaoqing's place, so he more or less thought that this matter was related to Zuo Shaoqing.

This made him extremely happy. He felt that agreeing to cooperate with Zuo Shaoqing was a wise decision.

After a long while, he said, "He specifically mentioned the relationship between teacher and student between the Old Duke and Grandfather, and then he pointed out that if it wasn't for the change in the current situation, the two families might have been able to become in-laws. With Master Duke's personality, it's impossible for him to just randomly shoot a shot at them."

"But …" Could it be that the Duke of State's Palace and the Zuo's Mansion will really get married? " Zuo Yunyang felt embarrassed when he said this. How narcissistic was he to think that he could climb onto the Duke's Mansion?

"Well, who knows?" Zuo Yunwen's face was also red and white. He was both excited and felt that he was overthinking it, "Don't tell this to your family in case you misunderstand and spread the news."

"Don't worry, big brother. I know how serious this is." Zuo Yunyang changed his mind and asked tentatively, "Big Brother, look at what Master Duke said to Shao Qing at the end, do the two of them know each other?"

Zuo Yunwen's brows creased even more tightly. He was so twisted that he almost went numb, "Impossible, in this life, the only time Shao Qing went out of Youuxi Town was a few days ago when he went to Changping Exam. How could the two of them meet?"

"That's true." But how did Zuo Shaoqing get that brand? Zuo Yunyang could not figure it out, but he did not intend to reveal it to Zuo Yunwen.

"Let's not talk about this for now. In these few days, let's let Shao Xi and the other children accompany Master Duke. Even if they can't become in-laws, they will have a future that Master Duke appreciates."

If he could get help from the Duke's Palace, then there would be a good chance for Zuo Family to return. Zuo Yunwen was extremely excited; this was the biggest wish of his life.

Lu Zheng still didn't know that with just a few casual words, he had caused his entire Zuo's Mansion to lose sleep. Of course, even if he knew, he didn't care, because he had thought of marrying into a Zuo's Mansion before.

However … This sudden thought was dispelled after seeing the information on his Zuo's Mansion.
