Capítulo 1599: Chapter 1602: This Is a Good Thing
“You, sigh, always think long-term. In Father’s eyes, this is a good thing, not a bad one.”
Zhang Shiyu was furious, exclaiming, “What good thing, bad thing? I can’t see that far ahead. What I can see is that it’s getting harder and harder for to get married. Prince Ning already had issues with because of my sister, and with this rumor, what if he believes it? Once Gu Youyou is gone, he won’t even consider . Father, it’s all your fault.”
Pri Minister Zhang understood everything clearly, but was helpless against Zhang Shiyu’s unreasonable complaints.
Though Gu Wu claid he was drunk at the ti and rembered nothing, he had already investigated the whole story clearly and thought this was a good outco.
Gu Wu didn’t make things up; it was just those two people misheard.
This is the best; when the matter becos widely known, he would find a way to reveal the truth naturally. That would be amusing.
Upon this thought, a smile unknowingly curled up at the corner of Pri Minister Zhang’s mouth.
Zhang Shiyu cried and complained, “Father, you can still laugh? Am I even your real daughter? Father, those two beggars ruined ; if you don’t do sothing, I’ll find a way myself.”
Saying this, Zhang Shiyu strode outside.
Realizing this, Pri Minister Zhang hurried to stop her, saying, “Hey, hey, don’t rush. You can’t ruin Father’s plan. I promise you, once my month-long house arrest is over, I’ll handle your matter imdiately.”
However, right now, Prince Ning wasn’t in Beijing. Without him, he needed to reconsider how to play this drama.
Zhang Shiyu thought that her father’s house arrest was at the emperor’s orders, and he really had no way, so she could only hold back.
Yet deep in her heart, the resentnt lingered, and she decided to confront those two beggars.
While walking to the garden, she saw Gu Wu sneaking away.
Pri Minister Zhang had told Gu Wu not to leave temporarily, and Zhang Shiyu knew this as well.
So what was Gu Wu, the old beggar, sneaking around for? Was he planning to sneak out?
Humph, isn’t it embarrassing enough already?
Zhang Shiyu was furious and followed him.
…
Shunzi had been waiting for a long ti outside the small corner gate of the Zhang Residence. He had bribed a servant of the Zhang Residence, who then agreed to pass on a ssage to Gu Wu for him.
Gu Wu was also under house arrest with Pri Minister Zhang, but he was excited to hear that Shunzi wanted to see him.
Though the Zhang Residence was nice, it was ultimately soone else’s favor, nowhere near as good as what his own family offered.
From afar, he could see Shunzi pacing anxiously outside the small corner gate, rubbing his hands together.
Thinking back many years ago, when they were still in Lotus Village, before everything happened.
Back then, he didn’t think highly of Shunzi as a son-in-law and wanted to marry Erya into a wealthy town family.
Looking back, marrying Shunzi was indeed the right choice. Even Pri Minister Zhang said that Shunzi’s fish-cooking skills surpassed those of the palace chefs.
“Shunzi!” As he got closer, Gu Wu exclaid joyously.
Ah, finally out.
Shunzi strode forward to et him, saying, “Father, you’re finally out.”
“Did you wait long?” Gu Wu asked with a smile.
“Of course, I’ve been waiting here for over an hour. Father, it’s really not easy to see you.”
Gu Wu’s face fell, and he said coldly, “When you need , I’m Father. How many tis did I visit, only to be turned away by all of you? Now you have the nerve to say it’s hard to see ? Boss Wang, it’s not easy for to see you either!”
