The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 724: Chapter 724 Meng Yunzheng Returns Chapter 724: Chapter 724 Meng Yunzheng Returns Upon such analysis, the old lady felt that the Zhang family was indeed reaching above their station in pursuing Yu.

So, if the Zhang family were to marry Yu, there would be only benefits and no drawbacks.

Most importantly, their Yu was also so beautiful and intelligent.

After listening, Shu Yu only felt a headache, “I’ve only seen that Zhang Ping’an two or three times at most, and we barely exchanged a couple of words. How can we marry?”

“Two or three times, so what? When I was betrothed to your grandfather, I only saw him once in private. That was also in front of all the elders, and we never even spoke a word.”

Shu Yu laughed and said, “But Grandmother, as you know, I have Young Master Meng.”

Meng Yunzheng, who was outside, saw his previously gloomy face suddenly light up at this remark.

Zhao Xi, standing next to him, was somewhat astonished and asked in almost a whisper, “Has your affair already come to light? Lady Lu actually disclosed it to the old lady?”

Meng Yunzheng hadn’t expected this either; the corners of his mouth curved slightly upward, and he gave no answer to Zhao Xi.

Instead, the gleam in his eyes was so bright that it almost blinded Zhao Xi.

However, the next moment, he saw Meng Yunzheng’s tightly clenched fist.

He was nervous!

With raised eyebrows in surprise, Zhao Xi thought to himself, how could this man, who had faced life and death and was surrounded by danger without fear, be so for Shu Yu’s words?

Tsk, retribution.

Nevertheless, Meng Yunzheng’s personal qualifications were indeed excellent; the old lady should be satisfied.

But contrary to expectations, a cold snort from the old lady came from inside, “Are you not ashamed? What do you mean by saying you already have Young Master Meng? Is he yours?”

Grandmother, isn’t it just a matter of time?”

Outside, Meng Yunzheng silently curled the corners of his mouth.

The old lady was at a loss for words with Shu Yu, “You, how can you be so sure? What if something happens in between, who knows what will take place in the future. Yes, Grandmother admits, Young Master Meng is indeed fine, with good looks, martial prowess, good character, he’s flawless.”

Zhao Xi’s teeth ached; are the old lady’s eyes blind to others? Yun is excellent, isn’t he?

But the very next moment, the old lady sighed, “But such excellence must have been cultivated from a young age. Without a substantial family background, who could raise someone so well-versed in both literary and martial arts? So what if Young Master Meng fancies you? What if his family doesn’t consent?”

“It won’t happen!” Meng Yunzheng could no longer wait, stepped forward, and entered the living room.

The old lady, initially thinking it was Shu Yu who had spoken, was about to tell her she was too naive. Then, realizing something was off, she abruptly turned around, only to see Zhao Xi and Meng Yunzheng standing behind her.

The old lady, “…”

She turned her head to give Shu Yu a stern look–did this wretched child know all along that they were outside?

Discussing others behind their backs and being overheard, even though they didn’t speak ill of him, it was still somewhat embarrassing.

However, Meng Yunzheng looked at the old lady solemnly and said, “Please rest assured, Grandma Lu, I can decide on my own marriage matters.”

The old lady lifted her head, full of confusion, “Your father and mother…”

“My mother has passed away, and my father cannot decide for me. I have a foster father who is an escort and has a frank nature, unconcerned with worldly affairs; even if I never marry, he will respect my decision.”

The old lady was taken aback–all at once, Young Master Meng had disclosed half of his family background, leaving her somewhat at a loss.

She had prepared many questions to ask but now couldn’t bring herself to ask any.
