Chapter 114 Rumors Abound [2] Part 1/6

Zi You lightly smiled and stroked her grandfather’s chest soothingly. “Don’t say that, grandfather. We saved his life, but he saved my life too. We’re even now. If we meet in the future, neither one owes the other. Isn’t that pretty good? It’s better not to owe a debt of gratitude. You don’t have to worry. It’s good if granddaughter’s reputation is ruined and can’t get married. You’er can follow you and uncle to the battlefield and protect you. When You’er’s cousins join the Mu army, You’er can also protect them. Grandfather, nothing is more important than all of you.”

Old General Mu looked at his more and more sensible granddaughter and loved her more and more.

He thought, ‘Dier only left Zi You behind. No matter what, she has to be happy. How can she sacrifice her whole life for the Mu family?’

Old General Mu was racking his brain. Zi You looked at this frowning forehead and knew that he didn’t hear what she said.

Thus, she smiled as she said, “Grandfather, there’s actually a way to stop everyone’s gossip. As long as You’er gets engaged to someone else, it’s certain that not long after that, no one will gossip.”

Old General Mu immediately shook his head in disapproval. “Where can we find a suitable family and man in a hurry? Is my, Mu Junyuan’s, granddaughter someone an average person is worthy of?”

Zi You faintly smiled. “I won’t really marry him. I’ll just be using him to block everyone’s mouths. Grandfather, didn’t Duke Yongnan fu have the intentions to set an engagement? You’er feels that they’re not a bad choice.”

“No.” Old General Mu objected without demur. “Duke Yongnan is okay, but his son and furen are too unreliable. That rascal Zhao HongXiang is a lustful lecher. And now his leg is wasted. The doctor said that even if he is cured, he will be lame. Duke Yongan is looking everywhere for a marriage partner for him because he’s afraid that after his son becomes lame, no one will want to marry him.”
