144: Chapter 144 Wufu Has No Worries About Marriage
With Madam Zhou’s generous gesture, coupled with her and her daughter’s attire, so people’s thoughts began to stir.
They complinted Madam Zhou in a roundabout way, praising Wufu for growing up so well and saying it was ti for her to find a match.
Over the past decade or so, Madam Zhou had seen mostly the scornful looks and disdainful slurs behind her back.
Today was the first ti she experienced such warmth from others, and although she was a bit overwheld and slow to react, she ultimately felt so joy.
A few young girls gathered around Wufu, chattering away, interested not in anything else but the little bead flower she wore in her hair, their envy was plain to see.
Zhou Xiuer watched from a distance, biting her lip tightly.
Today, Wufu and her despicable mother had really stolen the spotlight.
After dining at the Old Zhou family’s celebration feast, Madam Zhou took Wufu ho without having the gall to stay for dinner, although she was the auntie in na.
On the way, Madam Zhou asked Wufu what those girls had said to her, and if she had made any close girlfriends.
Wufu found it amusing and said, “Mother, we only spoke a few words, how could there be any close friends?”
Madam Zhou also realized her hastiness and changed her inquiry, “How about soone you got along with?”
“No,” Wufu replied honestly.
Mainly because, although she was but a fourteen-year-old girl, inside, she was an adult.
When she died, she was about the sa age as Madam Zhou, how could she get along with these girls?
Besides, these girls talked of nothing but clothes and jewelry, and the flattery and envy in their words beca tireso to her ears.
Madam Zhou was sowhat disappointed and said, “If there is soone you get along with, you should socialize more.” She saw Wufu as a loner without playmates and worried she might be lonely.
“Mhm, if there’s soone I get along with, I’ll definitely socialize with them.” The question was getting along.
“Oh, this is the purse Aunt gave .” Wufu pulled the purse from her waist and handed it to Madam Zhou.
Madam Zhou carefully examined it and praised, “The stitching is indeed fine, and the embroidery is exquisite.
I’ve heard that your Aunt’s needlework is exceptional, and it seems to be true.”
“If you like it, you wear it, Mother.
I have this one,” Wufu said, patting another purse that Madam Zhou made for her.
Madam Zhou chided, “Your Aunt gave it to you as a token of affection, how could I take it?” With that, she reattached the purse to Wufu’s belt.
As the mother and daughter walked on, Madam Zhou hesitated for a mont and cautiously asked, “Wufu, were you angry in the main room today?”
“Are you worried, Mother?”
“I’m just afraid that if you made a scene at that ti, your reputation…”
“Mother, reputation is not an issue.
But whoever makes
unhappy, I’ll make sure they are displeased as well,” Wufu interrupted her.
“But there were many elders present at the ti, and if they spoke ill of you, it could complicate your future marriage prospects!” Madam Zhou was quite worried.
Wufu smiled, “Mother, do you think I’d marry into their family?”
Madam Zhou was taken aback.
“It’s not that I’m arrogant or overreaching, if I marry, it will definitely be to soone I admire, soone who catches my eye and is promising,” Wufu declared.
“For an ordinary person to want to marry , they would need the capability to handle !”
Madam Zhou’s heart skipped a beat, and she swallowed hard.
This was serious; her daughter having such thoughts filled her not with joy but with anxiety.
Her aspirations were indeed high.
“Speaking of this is too early now.
Mother, I haven’t even co of age, and you’re already eager to send
off?” Seeing her mother’s worry, Wufu grasped her arm and said, “Don’t worry, Wufu won’t have trouble finding a husband, don’t think too much about it.”
Madam Zhou managed a faint smile, sighing softly in her heart.
She wondered whether her daughter’s confidence was a good or bad thing.
