Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 69 Madam: What do you think if your mother remarries?

Zhang Sui was a little confused when he heard his wife ask this.

Are these the words he should say?
He really wanted to say that there were currently only two men in charge of the Zhen family.

One is the second son Zhen Yan.

The other one is the third young master.

The third young master is only eight or nine years old.

We can't let the Third Young Master go, can we?
Naturally, the second son Zhen Yan could only go.

But then again, he really didn't think that the second young master Zhen Yan could take on this responsibility.

But if we don’t choose the second young master, who else can we choose?

Seeing Zhang Sui's embarrassment, the lady forced a smile at him and said, "You've been busy all day, go and have a rest first!"

Zhang then bowed to his wife and said goodbye.

The lady watched Zhang Sui leave, her mind full of Zhang Sui's actions today.

In the county government hall, he shocked everyone.

At the gate, he commanded his troops and refugees to attack the mansions of the four major families and the county government.

Seeing how high-spirited he was, the lady's heart beat faster.

This is what a real man does!
This is something that even my late husband could not achieve when he was alive.

If the Zhen family had him standing in front of them, she would be willing to be a little woman.

Shaking her head, the lady forced Zhang Sui out of her mind, then she summoned the maid and asked her to call the second son Zhen Yan and the second daughter Zhen Mi over.

Now that such a big thing has happened to the Zhen family, it is no longer something she can decide alone.

We also need this son and daughter to help us come up with ideas.

Soon, the second son Zhen Yan and the second daughter Zhen Mi came over.

The lady motioned for them to sit down, and then asked, "You should know what happened in Wuji County today."

The second young master Zhen Yan and the second young lady Zhen Mi both nodded.

The second lady Zhen Mi said: "Zhang Sui, he commanded the refugees to attack the mansions of the four major families and robbed the warehouses."

The second son Zhen Yan said with admiration: "The chief recorder is very courageous."

"This is something that a child can never do."

"It would be great if my future children were as capable as Zhuji."

The lady was too weak to complain.

How old are you?

You don't think about becoming strong yourself, but instead rely on your children!
The second young lady Zhen Mi looked at her wife and said, "Mother, although Zhang Sui is very courageous, this move has offended the four major families. They will not let it go. We should prepare countermeasures in advance."

Madam repeated Zhang Sui's words and said to the second son Zhen Yan, "If anyone must take on the responsibility of guiding these refugees, then, Yan'er, you are the only one in our Zhen family."

"The right to guide this group of refugees can only be safe if it falls into the hands of our Zhen family."

The second son Zhen Yan's face turned pale, and he stood up and said, "Mother, my child, I can't do it!"

"How can a child be so capable?"

"I have never led an army before, let alone know how to fight a war."

"Normally, the children are afraid of seeing these refugees."

"These refugees are not good people, but extremely vicious criminals."

The lady looked at the second son Zhen Yan expressionlessly.

As expected, it's useless to rely on him for anything.

The lady took a deep breath, suppressed her inner anger, and then said, "For now, only you can do this."

"Whether you like it or not."

The second young master Zhen Yan's lips trembled, he lowered his head and dared not speak.

The lady added, "But don't worry, I won't let you do this alone. I know what you are capable of, and I won't let you do anything beyond your ability."

"But, as the future head of our Zhen family, you must at least do a good job on the surface."

The second young master Zhen Yan uttered "oh" weakly.

Madam was silent for a moment, then she said, "I just thought about it. Once the Jizhou government sends people, someone will be needed to control these refugees. At that time, Yan'er, you will step in."

Looking at the second young lady Zhen Mi, the lady said: "Mi'er, when the time comes, you will disguise yourself and follow your second brother as an aide to help him with his plans."

"Of course, I won't let you and your sister take any risks."

"My idea is to let Bocheng follow you when the time comes."

“So much has happened in the last few days.”

"Bo Chengdu did a good job. He was brave and resourceful."

"With him by your side, you should listen to his advice."

"I have already promised him that I will give Hongyu to him in marriage."

"From now on, we are all family."

"Don't embarrass him, and don't try to intimidate him."

"Our Zhen family will still need his support in the future." The second son Zhen Yan heaved a sigh of relief and said, "My Lord, I also think it is feasible. If possible, can Zhao Yun also be assigned to my child?"

The lady rolled her eyes.

Zhao Yun is not from the Zhen family.

That was the powerful man invited by the Zhen family to help!
Many people wanted to keep Zhao Yun but couldn't. We are a declining family, and it would be a miracle if you are so mediocre that you can keep Zhao Yun!

The second son Zhen Yan met the lady's gaze and quickly shrank his neck and said, "Well, it's okay if there is a master record."

Madam said, "Yan'er, go and rest first."

The second son Zhen Yan got up and left.

The lady waited until he disappeared from her sight, then she glanced at the second lady, Zhen Mi, and a blush appeared on her pretty face.

Miss Zhen Mi saw that her mother was a little shy and asked curiously, "Mother, do you have something to say to your daughter?"

The lady took a deep breath and mustered up her courage to say, "Mi'er, I am very old and don't have much youth left."

"In a few years, we won't even be able to have children."

"Who would want an old woman who can't even have children?"

The second lady Zhen Mi hummed.

indeed.

Although my mother looks young now, she is already in her thirties.

In a few years, it will indeed be impossible to have children.

If I want to remarry, I only have these few years.

Madam bit her red lips with her pearly teeth, not daring to look at the Second Miss Zhen Mi and said, "Mother, it's not that I don't love the Zhen family or you, but I am a woman after all."

"Over the years, since your father passed away, your mother has been working diligently to seek benefits for the Zhen family and to take care of you children."

"As you grow up, you will eventually get married."

"Mother, mother, mother also has needs."

"My feet are cold in winter. As a mother, I also want someone to warm them."

"You understand? It's not the kind of foot warmer a maid uses."

The second lady Zhen Mi looked at her mother with some sympathy.

Nowadays, it is not unacceptable for a woman to remarry.

On the contrary, she has always considered asking her mother to remarry.

After all, my father had passed away many years ago.

However, she has never found a man worthy of her mother.

Now, after hearing her mother say this, the second young lady Zhen Mi also became interested and said with a smile: "Mother, if you meet a man you like, then you can remarry, and your daughter will be happy too."

"As long as the man can treat mother sincerely."

"Just, mother, can you tell me who this person is?"

"My daughter doesn't mean to interfere with your choice."

"My daughter just wants to get to know him."

"If possible, my daughter can discuss with my second brother how much dowry our Zhen family should give when mother gets married."

When the lady heard what Second Miss Zhen Mi said, her extremely nervous expression eased a little.

A blush crept up her neck, spreading all the way to her earlobes.

She felt as if her whole face was on fire.

Madam forced a smile at the second young lady Zhen Mi and said, "Now the time is not right. Wait until you and Bo Cheng assist your second brother and help our Zhen family overcome this crisis, and then I will tell you."

"When the time comes, I will first find you a husband of my dreams, and then return the power of the Zhen family to you and your second brother."

"Besides, I don't know whether he is willing or not."

"But I will lower my posture a little bit."

"After all, I am already this old, and the other party is very outstanding."

"Of course, these are not things that should be considered at the moment."

"But, Mi'er, don't worry. No matter what happens to me in the future, I will always pay attention to the Zhen family and ask him to help as much as possible."

"In my heart, you and your second brother will always be my children."

After a pause, the lady asked again, "By the way, Mi'er, I have thought about it these past few days and still feel that marrying a son-in-law is probably a good choice for the Zhen family and for you."

"Think carefully and see if there is any male servant in our Zhen family mansion that suits your taste."

"Your second brother is mediocre and irresponsible. Your third brother is too young and it is impossible to tell whether he can support the Zhen family in the future."

"you understand?"

"Of course, I hope you can get married."

"I am also very conflicted."

"I hope you can help your second brother support the Zhen family, but I also hope you don't have to suffer like I did."
