Big Brother, are you getting married?

After discussing with the elders, Ling Zhang returned to his own courtyard with a little kid on his back.

Ling Maomao hugged Ling Zhang's neck, rubbed his head and whispered into Ling Zhang's ears: "Big brother, I asked the butler to deliver the gift I brought back to your room, you must see it later."

Ling Maomao laughed out loud in happiness, then lowered his voice and quietly said, "I gave you the most presents, way more than my father. Don't ever tell him about it."

Ling Zhang's eyes revealed a smile, he turned and rubbed his head, "Little Scoundrel, if your father knew, how sad would he be?"

"Hmph, he won't be sad. He even scolded me for buying random things. He disdained the gift I brought him for a while, so I won't bring him any present in the future!" Ling Maomao said.

Ling Zhang was also a little helpless. He, Second Uncle, was worried that Mao Mao would be spoiled at home and would always play the role of a strict father. He also could not tear down the stage in Second Uncle, so he said to Ling Maomao: "Second Uncle is worried that you might have learned how to be a prodigal."

"Aiya, big brother, I don't know how to do that. The money my mother bought me as a gift is very limited. If it's more than that, then I won't buy it." Ling Maomao said.

"How much did you give me?" Ling Zhang asked curiously.

"Ten liang." Ling Maomao replied.

Not a little, Ling Maomao was just a child, 10 gold was a huge sum of money to him.

"Right, Big Brother, are you getting married?" Ling Maomao suddenly said.

Ling Zhang was startled, "Married? "Who told you that?"

"I heard Mother, Grandfather and Grandfather were chatting. Mother said that you should consider getting married when you become an adult, and also said that Second Cousin Sister is very suitable …"

"Mao Mao, how did you hear that?" Ling Zhang interrupted Ling Maomao.

This concerned the reputation of a young lady, and nothing was known about it yet. He believed that his grandfather and Second Aunt would not easily reveal this.

Ling Maomao stuck out his tongue, and said softly: "I overheard it."

"You can only tell me these things, no one else is allowed to tell, do you know!" Ling Zhang said in a serious tone.

Being reprimanded by Ling Zhang, Ling Maomao obediently let out a cry of grievance.

Ling Zhang softened his heart, "It's not big brother that wants to teach you, but if anyone else finds out, they would harm your second cousin. Your second cousin treated you very well, is it possible that you want to harm her?"

Ling Maomao shook his head: "I don't want to!"

"That's it, you must not tell anyone else." Ling Zhang warned again.

Ling Maomao realized that he might have gotten into trouble, "I got it, I definitely won't tell anyone else."

Ling Zhang heaved a sigh of relief, thought for a while and asked: "What happened next?"

He really had to tie the knot between him and the young miss of the Fu family. Right now, he did not want to get married. Besides, didn't he also have …

"Grandpa said that I'm not in a hurry. Second Cousin is still young, I'll come back and ask you later." Brother, are you really going to get married? Would he be able to marry a beautiful wife after the coming of age ceremony? When can I get married? " Ling Maomao said.

Hearing that Ling Xingzhong had rejected him temporarily, Ling Zhang heaved a sigh of relief, but then frowned.

He felt that his grandfather wasn't worried about the Fu family's second young miss' age, but rather the marriage contract that no one knew about. It was an official marriage contract. Even if the two parties engaged to each other were both men and the two families had not been in contact for many years, the marriage contract was still valid.

Under these circumstances, it would be very troublesome if he were to be engaged to someone else. If the other party pursued the matter, he could report him to the government.

Even though he felt that the Yuwen family might wish that this marriage contract would not be known by the world, they also wished that he would marry another woman.

But his grandfather didn't know.

It seemed that he had to bring up this matter as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would really be worried that his grandfather would go and discuss it with the Yuwen clan!
